Author's Note:

This is my first Minecraft story and yet I'm pretty excited about this!

Disclaimer: I don't own Minecraft.

Chapter 1:

Newbie

As one single-player player. I never really tried out multi-player using any kind of device to get on. Usually I enjoyed the peace and quiet of course, until it got scarier in the game as I challenged more and more things.

Of course, I eventually grew tired of all those games of single-player parts, so I tried out Minecraft multi-player after I found one specific IP code from Planet Minecraft.

Loading player...

I woke up. Wait? Woke up? WHAT? Where was I? I ... was in Minecraft... wait what just happened? Probably a dream, but hey! I'm pinching myself and it isn't working. Most probably because I figured out I learned I was made out of cubes. I touched my face. Block. Frozen. Scared?

I looked at the bottom left corner of my vision. A section where a million players chatted. I'm kidding. Probably just 4 players chatting once a second. I shrugged which I hadn't thought would be possible in Minecraft. Oh well.

I felt shock fill me with worry. Then, excitement and nervousness replaced shock and worry.

I realized that there was a pool of water below me. It wasn't cold... just felt like actual water. I gulped. I knew how water worked in Minecraft, it flowed slowly, but, I didn't know how to swim, so there was a problem there.

I saw in chat that most players were asking for a faction.

What was that?

I had no idea at all, so I asked a nearby player, "What's a faction?"

The player looked at me, then laughed and walked away. I sighed. No one would really cooperate. Then I noticed it. The characters weren't really matching the words that the chat bar was saying. Only the players. I could walk freely. There was nothing controlling me. Of course, no one was over in front of the computer. I tried again.

"What is a faction?" I tried to ask politely to another character, one with a golden skin. I like to dress myself, so the skin was a big thing for me!

"Oh, it's a group of people with a base and raid others with a power under you... are you a noob?" he asked me. I shrugged.

"Yeah," I replied. He nodded.

"Right then. I don't have a faction. I planned to join one, but ...I might be killed. Betrayed. Ya see, I have a lot of loot on me that I can't bear to lose. I need your help finding me one...," he stopped. His eyes or more like his block head sparkled. "Actually might you be interested in teaming with me?"

I was actually shocked by that sudden question and the invitation. I had no where to start, so I nodded. "Um... okay," I replied. The golden blocks crouched.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Jake," I replied.

"Uh huh. My name's Mason. Hello... :P!" he told me. I sighed. Well, how do we team? I had no idea so I asked.

"How do we get together as a team?" I asked Mason. Mason paused.

"You... you wanna be leader of the faction?" he asked slowly. I had no idea what he was talking about, but leader sounded like a great position to be in!

"O-Okay!" I replied as cheerfully as possible.

"Then say /f create and then say what you want to name our faction," he instructed me. I did what I was told, and I named my faction DragonTeam.

"Now do /f invite then say my player name!" Mason said something I didn't understand. Player name? His name was Mason!

"I don't get it," I told him.

"Just... say /f open real quick like as if the whole Minecraft world would end! Then, say it again!" he told me. I did, he joined, and I said it again as quickly as possible.

"Good, people are so desperate for a faction these days," Mason muttered loud enough, too quiet for anyone else besides me.

"Now what?" I asked Mason. He sighed.

"We'll just have to find a place for base!" he told me uncertain. I just told him it was alright just as long as he knew where to go.

"Yeah yeah, of course!" he told me. "To, the Desert Biome!"

I froze.

Desert Biome? My weakness. I tried to tell Mason that it was my weakness and that Forest Biomes were my strength, but the words wouldn't come out as if the thought was choking me.

"Kidding. To the Jungle Biome!" he said instead. I sighed in relief. I didn't like the Desert Biome for the lack of food and trees with unlimited amounts of sand... I hate sand.

The Jungle Biome wasn't so bad, but I wasn't really used to it.

"Let's ... just go then!" I told him. We walked into a portal. I felt myself being carried away, but I never left the ground. Then, in a blink of an eye, we were in a Jungle Biome.

The golden skin (or as I may call it butter skin) was actually the skin I have and DragonTeam is the name of my faction on a server. The pool of water is where you are on at spawn, and my first faction base home was in a Jungle Biome.

I did this because... things sadly just happen in my life, so I have something to say to all you players out there who don't trust people.

NEVER trust anyone still in a faction.
