I was in the mines. I've been there for 5 days, searching... not finding anything. I was down there with my friend Ben. Not an ore in sight. No coal... No iron... nothing. We were lost. No way out. Hunger almost gone. Sanity being lost.

A city... a glorious city right before my eyes. more food and restraunts than I can handle. I close my eyes. I reopen them to only find out I am still in the mines. It was a dream. I think of how hungry I am. I look over at my friend, Ben. I can't... I can't do it. but i have no choice. I raise my pickaxe in the air above his head. But then he says something. Something I couldnt believe.
"Look, I see something! It looks sparkly."
We run over to it. It is sparkly indeed. it is Light blue. we look at each other. He punches me.
"It's mine!" He yells at me.
"No! It is mine!" I yell back.
We are on the ground beating each other up. We both drop our pickaxes in the process. Mine falls into lava. The other pickaxe is still on the ground. I push ben to the side and pick it up. I turn around and throw it into his head. He stops... and falls. The diamond is mine now... But I dont want it anymore. I just want to get out of here. This cave is turning me into a monster. I bend down and look at Ben. I am thirsty after that long fight. I look at the blood on the ground.
"No." I say.
I walk away.

I've been sitting on a rock for 2 days. I am going insane. I feel it inside of me. I want to eat my hand. I hold myself back. But then I hear something... An echo...
"Hello!" it says
I start screaming bloody murder. I try to keep it at a minimun so I dont scare him off. He finds me. I think about eating him, but I dont.
"I know the way out," he says
I follow him. We go up and up and up. We reach above. I am out. I am out of that cave. I hug him. I am tempted to bite his neck right now but I know that he probably has food. I am free.
