Chapter 1: Old game, new challenges.

There are many kinds of things in this wonderful universe. Some that are of common knowledge, many that have yet to be discovered or understood. From animals, strange places, mysterious objects, to even alternate dimensions that show a different reflection of the same world. One of them is called Minecraft, a world similar to the Earth, the biggest difference being that almost everything is shaped like a block. Living beings, objects, terrain, matter in general is either a block or a square.

Life is almost the same in Minecraft and Earth, only that there are not as nearly as many cities or advanced civilizations like ours, instead there are villages populated with intelligent creatures similar to humans, of course, with cubic shape like everything else in that world. There were once many humans in Minecraftia (which is how the locals know the land), but that is a tale for another time...

The other intelligent species in Minecraftia, known as the Testificates, are very pacific. While some might be grumpier than others, most Testificates would rather flee than fight any time. There is little to no knowledge of any warriors among the Testificates, with only very few known through the entirety of history. It is this pacific attitude that makes them get into so much trouble though, since in Minecraftia the Testificates and animals, like cows, chickens, wolves, etc. are not the only creatures that exist. There are also hostile creatures that roam the land, usually acting agressive to everything except themselves. On occasions, they even attack the Testificates' villages, often making them terrified and leaving them with no other options than to lock themselves in their houses during night time.

Minecraft is not just another version of Earth, it is the most connected to it and the closest one. That's both interesting and very dangerous for both worlds. The proof? Well, everything began one day that promised to be normal at the beginning but suddenly became into a dangerous adventure, but it did not begin in Minecraft. It all started in the Earth, and with the most unexpected group of friends.

One day, in the USA, inside a normal house, an annoying sound awakened a common citizen. The source of the annoying sound was his cell phone, which had just received a text message and in the middle of the morning. He had white skin, black hair, a beard, and average height. His name was James: A.K.A Nova or UberHaxorNova in Youtube, or ParagonNova in the Minecraft game.

Nova: ...mmm... *Grunts*... god, stupid phone... Shut Up!

Then, Nova picked up the phone angrily, and then he read the message. It was from one of his friends: Seamus. The message said: "Dude, Wazzup? Sly, Kootra, Rachel and I are hanging out at the cinema. Wanna come?"

Nova: Hmm... This is interesting. *small yawn* Man I'm kinda sleepy right now... I'm going to answer him.

He tapped in the phone: "Yup, I'm on my way. Wait a bit, I'm just waking up. Say hi from my part to everyone."

And then, Nova jumped out of his bed and then he changed his clothes to go out. He put his tennis shoes on, his jeans, his grey hoodie and his grey beanie. But suddenly, something stopped him before he could go anywhere; his phone was ringing again.

Nova: What? Already answered? Damn, Seamus types fast.

He looked at his phone screen... It wasn't Seamus. There was no phone number, no name of the one who sent it either. Only a lonely letter "N". The message said: "ParagonNova, we need your assistance. You and your friends must come. Please hurry, find the way."

Nova was confused. He thought that probably was one of his subscribers that was trying to scare him... but, from where did he get his phone number? Maybe it was his friend Spoon, trying to scare him again with an anonymous message. He decided to ignore that and he went to the cinema with his friends.

Once there he saw all his friends, like Seamus said in the text message. Seamus, who had white skin, blonde hair, pants and a Mario t-shirt, Sly who had black hair, purple hat, glasses and t-shirt and a beard, Kootra, with brown hair and was wearing a red cap, and Rachel who was white, had black hair and was wearing glasses, jeans and a brown sweater were waving to Nova, indicating him that they already saw him.

Nova: Hey, sup motherfuckers! How is it going?

Sly: James! Long time no see, huh?

Kootra: About time for you to get here, James.

Seamus: Hey man! Sleeping at 11:00 A.M. eh?

Rachel: Yea man! You should wake up more early.

Nova: Oh come on! Why is sleeping so much of a fucking issue?

Seamus: Nah, just kidding. Take a sit James.

They talked a lot about how they were doing and how were their youtube channels growing step by step, until Sly, in the middle of the chat, said:

Sly: Oh, James, before I forget... what is this supposed mean?

Nova: Huh? What do you mean?

Sly: Well, this creepy looking message that you sent to all of us.

Kootra: Yea, that's right! What does that "N" mean anyway?

Nova: An "N"?

Then everyone showed to James their phones and he saw the same mysterious message that he had, but of course, with the respective names of everyone else instead of Nova's.

Nova: *Getting slightly creeped out* Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait a sec. That's the same message I received after I answered you Seamus! What the hell?!

Kootra: What? So this isn't you? Oh...

Nova: No. It wasn't me. I want to know who the hell sent this and why. The weirdest thing here is that there's no phone number or anything, just that "N".

Rachel: Wonder who could it be...

Everyone tried to think in who could be and how he could send the message so mysteriously, but no one came with a reasonable enough theory. They kept talking a little bit more to forget that message, and after watching a movie they all returned to their respective homes.

That same day, in the middle of the night, Nova was in his house, playing Minecraft and feeding his tamed wolf, "Cuyo". Nova likes a lot playing Minecraft, and his friends as well. They weren't just players that knew a lot about the game, they were very dedicated with Minecraft and with whatever they did on it. They were adventurers who always made funny and very amazing stuff. They were that and much more...

Back with Nova; he was feeding Cuyo with some bones, and he was about to hunt some cows and chickens to have some food in case of needing it.

Nova: Yeah! Let's go Cuyo! Hunt some of them little animals.

Then he got out of his house (in Minecraft of course) and he began the hunt, but he could only walk a little bit before the computer screen went completely blue, in other words, the game froze. And he hates that a lot.

Nova: WHAT THE FUCK!? Oh, come on! You gotta be kidding me! *Grunts and anger screams typical from him*. This is so retarded! Notch, what the hell is your problem with my game!? IT ALWAYS FREEZES AND I DON'T HAVE ANY FUCKING MOD ON!

Then the screen went totally white and some random numbers began to appear. James was completely confused and kind of scared because his computer was going nuts. The screen stopped showing those numbers, going blank and staying like that for a while. Then, some letters showed up, but they were scrambled and unorganized. However, in a matter of seconds, they organized and unscrambled, forming a little inscription, no, a message! It said: "ParagonNova, please listen and listen NOW. If you don't, everything is done for."

Nova: Oh, great... now my computer is possessed! I need to call an exorcist.

The computer instantly showed another match of words and sentences and this time it said something else: "This is not a joke, so take it seriously! And I don't think any exorcist can do anything useful to this"

Nova: What in the world? Did you just... Reply to me?

The computer showed: "Yes I did. Do you see anyone else here? But enough talking. This is not the moment to waste time. Its Minecraftia, it needs you and all your friends. You must come to Minecraftia."

Nova: Huh? Minecraft? The fuck do you mean by that? Like, do you expect me to fucking walk into the computer and somehow actually go into Minecraft or some shit? Wait a minute... Why am I talking to a computer? And, really? Minecraftia? Out of all names you could have chosen?

It changed the words again: "Shut up and let me explain! Remember the phone message? Look at it now."

He did what the computer said, and he saw the message, nothing changed. He looked at the phone number and instead of not showing anything, it now showed the name: "MINECRAFT" in a font that the phone shouldn't be able to process.

Nova: What the... ? Ok... This is... Weird. Alright computer, or whatever you are, assuming what you say is true, how the fuck am I supposed to even go "into" Minecraft? That doesn't make any sense.

The computer showed another match of sentences that said: "Well, at least you are a little more convinced now. About getting there, it's a little bit more complicated, but let me see what I can do."

The screen went blank for a second and then it showed: "Hmm... guess I can do something for all of you. Just get ready. And wait."

And the computer turned off. Nova was upset, tired and confused for all this. His computer came to life for a moment, telling him that he needed to save something that he thought was just a game, and then it just turns off? That was quite disappointing for him. After that he had dinner, and later on, he fell asleep.

Nova began dreaming after a while, when, suddenly, his computer turned on by itself. A blue light came out of the screen, as well as lots of electric sparks, filling the room with light while Nova kept sleeping, not noticing what was happening at all. The screen began glowing more, and more, until it was too bright even for the closed eyes of Nova, waking him up.

When he saw all that light, he thought that he was being kidnapped by an U.F.O. while being in his own house. He began cursing and yelling, scared and feeling confused by these sudden events taking place in his bedroom.

The computer was shaking violently and irradiating a lot of electricity. It kept doing that for a while, until it finally stopped, but immediately a giant vortex came out of the monitor and sucked Nova inside of it. Then, everything went back to normal in Nova's bedroom and darkness came back like nothing ever happened there...

Inside the vortex, Nova was spinning out of control, getting more and more dizzy and apparently falling to nowhere.

Nova: WHAT THE FUCK?! WHERE THE HELL AM I?! SOMEONE HELP!

And just when Nova thought that this couldn't be worse, lightnings and thunders began to hit him with fury and violence. Nova was feeling like that was the end of his days, but it was just the beginning. The thunder was literally destroying him, but not just that... it was rebuilding him too. He was turning into a Minecraft version of himself. His hands, head, body, even clothes where turning into squares and rectangles until all of his body turned block, and due to the pain that Nova was feeling, he fell into unconsciousness. After that, the vortex disappeared, and dropped Nova into some kind of forest.

He then woke up slowy and painfully after a while:

Nova: ... Maan... that freakin' hurts... my head feels like it's going to explode and- *looks down and notices his cubic hand*... What the hell?! My hand is... wait a sec... *checks the rest of his body and sees all the changes on him* Holy fucking shit! It-it-it's not me... it's... This is me but... A Minecraft version of me? Its not even my avatar... Well, seems that the computer wasn't wrong. But I never thought I would be in a real life version of Minecraft. Guess I must get my tools and get hurry before night comes.

Then, he went further inside the forest, but without knowing, that something that was hiding in the dark was chasing him, something very dangerous... What could it be?

Okay everyone, here is where this little chapter of my first English written story ends, and I really hope you liked it. The reason why I am writing this is because of two reasons: 1.- To practice my English, because I'm from Mexico, and even if I am good at this language, I need to practice, and what better way to practice than doing what I most like? That means writing fanfictions.

2.- Because I wanted to do this in tribute to my most favorite Youtubers in the whole world: UberHaxorNova (basically the main reason of me making this. You rock Nova!), SlyFoxHound (He is freaking awesome. Hurray for popsicle and potato peel!), SeamusPKC (Totally a cool guy. Keep that huge amount of videos posted up!), Kootra (Pretty cool too, though to be honest not my favorite Creature) And Rachel (a really funny and amazing youtuber too. I really like your videos and lets plays, especially minecraft marriage)

Will Nova be able to survive in this adventure? Who would have sent that message? What's happening with Minecraft? Where are the rest of Nova's friends? What's that creature chasing him in the deeps of darkness? Don't miss the next chapter of The E.N.D. of Minecraft!
(Edit: I made a couple changes and fixed some typos. Hopefully you guys like it. I'll be doing this for the rest of the chapters too)
