Chapter 1: Populated Grasslands
Blue's POV
I walked out of my front iron door to see the sun rise above the horizon surpassing the oak trees. I stretched my arms with a sigh of relief, thinking what i was going to do today. I might go visit Archer or Zac depends on what they are doing. After I was done gazing upon the sunrise I walked inside of my house closing the iron door behind me. I thought about going into my lab and brew up some potions or read a book in my small library. I felt a rumble in my stomach and decided to fix up breakfast for myself. As I began frying up the eggs and adding some pork chops on the side I heard a knock on the front door, It was Archer (he has brown hair, pale skinned, wearing a grey t-shirt and whitish shorts and had his bow on his back) and Zac (who is also pale skinned, wearing his Black Jacket unzipped showing his black and dark grey striped pattern shirt, wearing blue jeans).
"Hey guys!" I said "Sup Blue" said Archer "Morning" Zac said following Archers greeting.
Archer's POV
As me and Zac walked in to Blue's house we talked about the usual things like saying if we should go hunt for more food, or create another mineshaft for minerals.
"Bah! We have been doing those things for like forever!I say we adventure, expand our map a bit" Zac blared out
To be honest that was one of the best ideas he came up with this month! We all agreed to explore, I went back into my cave home close to the summit of a small mountain and Zac went to his medium sized house. Conveniently we all lived only like 50-75 blocks away from each other. We packed up and met each other by the center plains that we marked with torches and a 2 by 2 smooth stone structure. Each of us packed a map that Blue copied and gave to me and Zac, some food, water bottles, torches, and of course our weapons. Blue and Zac have a default Iron sword, I had one too but I mostly use my trusty bow. "We should move west from here" Blue said looking at his compass and his map. All three of us started walking calmly as the sun moves in the other direction.
Zac's POV
This was really exciting! I couldn't wait to see what things lay ahead of us , Blue and Arty (is what we call Archer for short) had the same feeling. Hopefully we can encounter a volcano or maybe a Mushroom biome? The adventurous feeling fueled my body, "come on guys lets go double time!" I said. Blue chuckled "Typical Zac" he said with a happy smile.
"Hey Arty? Blue?" I said getting their attention
"Why do I feel that me and you guys are living in isolation, like with no one around?" I asked in a sad tone of voice
"well its best we keep it like that, there are dangerous people and things out there..." Blue replied.
"Besides there's a village about 300 blocks away from our houses remember?" Archer said.
" I know but it would be good to have some more company..."
"don't worry Zac, we've all felt that before, I occasionally still do" Blue said sadly
It fell silent for a few minutes, Blue was ahead of us but then suddenly stopped walking, me and Arty was wondering why he stopped and ran towards him to see what made him all struck up. I too was amazed at the sight and so was Arty. It was a beautiful hot spring on the side of a small hill with flowers surrounding the outskirts of the pool. Blue looked at both of us and smiled. He took off his shirt and started running towards the spring, Arty was already near about to enter the pool
"H-Hey! wait for me!" I said while running towards them almost slipping on the rocks
I walked in slowly into the hot springs feeling the tingle of the warm water upon my skin. Cringing at the pain of the steaming water I ruthlessly dived into the pool to get it over with, I was then surrounded my the feeling of hot clear liquid. Enjoying the feel I began swishing around making dance like moves in the water. The water felt relaxing and began to make me calm. I arose to the surface and bursted out with an "ahhh" I said out loud feeling the fresh air. I looked at Arty and Blue who looked at me with a " You asshole" face noticing that they were all soaked and even got some of our shirts wet from all my splashing. "hahaha whoops!" i said rubbing my head. They then resumed what they were doing.
Blue's POV
I was annoyed by Zac's splashing but then seeing how happy he was and Arty smiling trying to block out the splashes with his hands "Ugh your like a retarded squid Zac!" Archer said with a joking tone in his voice. We all settled down and resumed the calmness, warmness of the spring a few minutes longer. The sounds of nature filled my ears, birds chirping, tree leaves dancing to the wind, and the soft breeze that brush my skin. I was in a zen state, calm, relaxed, like it was my natural high, but I was blinded by the sounds of nature, losing track of time, for it was already nearing sun down.
"Shit!" Arty and Zac bounced up and looked at me surprised. "Its already nearing sundown!" we all scrambled and started to dry ourselves up with the extra towels we brought with us, I started wiping my medium long hair and i could see arty was already getting on his grey shirt and jacket. I finished putting on dark jeans and started to put on my black shirt with blue small blue designs then my black and purple sleeveless jacket. I finished dressing and so was Arty but then I saw Zac already dressed but just stood there. "Um...where the hell did our bags go?" he said
"What?" Arty said in disbelief "Yeah its not here, I swore are bags where right here" Me and Archer walked up to Zac and the bags where truly gone. We were defenseless, food-less, and had no way to navigate ourselves, I started to panic, but then interrupted to what archer said.
"T-There's tracks here"
"It was an animal?" Zac asked
"No...these are prints of someones shoe..."
