A/N: I should probably clarify now that this story isn't supposed to make very much sense; Its existence came about from a conversation me and my friend had about there being so many Minecraft "Let's Plays" on YouTube, so there wasn't exactly a tripartite plot structure complete with foreshadowing, developed characters, etc planned out. I do love Minecraft though, don't get me wrong :D anyway, good luck trying to understand!...


Once upon a Wednesday afternoon, after he had returned home from practising with his (totally rad) new band, a famous YouTuber by the name of XxGMZBOIZxX16 was settling down in his room to play a game of Minecraft.

Well, truth be told, he wasn't a famous YouTuber, but he wished he was, and he had resolved once and for all to begin his journey to internet stardom that very evening.

XxGMZBOIZxX16 was a cunning and clever young male of eleven years old, and he knew that what everybody wanted on YouTube was more Minecraft videos. Admit it, you crave new Minecraft videos. As soon as you've finished one, you need another, and another, and another.

And when there aren't any new ones left (and that is very rare) you go to the Minecraft FanFiction section before withdrawal kicks in and you start self-medicating with that paracetamol your mum has been hiding under the sink since that time you crushed it up and gave it to your friend, pretending it was a psychoactive drug, who then got massively placebo'd and ran face first into a Tesco lorry. He died a little bit.

As Nieztche wisely said, "Whatever doesn't kill me inspires me to make more Minecraft videos."

Anyway, I've gotten carried away a little bit. I hope you didn't get too bored and go back to watching Minecraft videos. I know it's hard, I know, but just stay with me, this story will blow your mind (and your terribly constructed cobblestone and sandstone volcano) to pieces.

XxGMZBOIZxX16 equipped his headset (+5 Speech! Eavesdrop Perk Enabled) and sat up straight, eager to begin the YouTube series that would blow the world away. Like a creeper.

"Gawsh, that's a nice house I have there. It would be a shame if something happened to it," said XxGMZBOIxX16 into the mic with unconvincing sincerity. As he said this, he deftly typed into the Single Player World Command box the command to spawn a few dozen creepers.

"OH NOOOOOO!" sang XxGMZBOIZxX16 as his house was exploded. Smoking cubes showed the once fertile fields, now devastated by the mindless wrath of the green menaces. XxGMZBOIZxX16 began to sob uncontrollably.

He thought of the darkness and the great void, and of the God that had forsaken his generation, writhing in the blood stained soil, choking on the murky earth, lungs filled with soot and plastic. The future stretched out, a terrifying winged beast, bleak and infinite. No one would ever live again, not in this world, not when the earth echoes the screams of the many lost. Wives and children, lives torn asunder, and the world could never be the same again.
