MINECRAFT: Naked Axe
Chapter 1: The N00b, the Atheist, and the Dork
Sit down children and let me tell you one of my favorite tales.
I may be an old grandfather to you, but this story is tells of a time before my grandpa was born.
What is this story called? I call it, The Three Warriors of the Cobblestone Castle.
About 12 generations ago, our great planet of Minecraft was collapsing.
8 out of 10 servers were consumed in chaos, but one village lived on in the chaos.
That village then was surrounded by a massive fortress made out of cobblestone.
This is the story of the Three Warriors who saved that village from a supernatural threat…
In the deep desert wastelands of a chaotic server, a young adventurer continued on his journey to find civilization. His green shirt was wrinkled and covered in stains, his brown shoes were full of sand, the wind made his red-striped black pants flap like crazy, sweat dripped from his brown hair bangs and onto his white skinned forehead, his black glasses kept sand from going into his blue eyes. This young adventurer was known as Mel, but he was just an average n00b.
"I've been walking for five days and no sign of civilization," whined Mel, "Heck; I haven't even seen a monster."
Mel then stopped, he heard digging. Then he saw a head pop out of the ground. It was a brown haired adventurer wearing a light-blue visor. He climbed out of the ground, showing his white shirt, black jacket, blue jeans, and black boots.
"Ha! I told you it was morning," he said to the hole.
Another guy climbed out of the hole. He had blonde hair, a red shirt, leather armor, purple shorts, and grey shoes. "Excuse me for trying to play it safe."
"Oh thank God," said Mel, "There are people out here."
"Why are you thanking someone who doesn't exist?" asked Black Jacket.
"Excuse my friend," said Leather Armor, "He's an atheist."
"I don't care," replied Mel, "I'm just glad I found some life out here, well, besides pigs. By the way, I'm Mel."
"I'm Joe," said Leather Armor, "And the guy in the black jacket is my friend, Maximus. Call him Max for short. He'll punch your lights out if you don't."
"So Joe and Max, what brings you out to this wasteland?" asked Mel.
"Max and I we're looking for a new server to try to find some gold," answered Joe.
"Well you're not going to find anything for a long while," replied Mel.
"What makes you say that?"
"Because, I just left a server, which was destroyed by a gang of pig riding Griefers. I've been walking for 5 days and haven't seen anything but sand and pigs."
"Well, the server Max and I came from is full of gangs. There's a huge mountain rang, but we can't get past the gangs."
"Why don't you go there at night?"
"Our server is swamped with monsters at night. We couldn't get pass them even if we tried. And if we try, we'd probably get killed."
"Wait, does anyone in those gangs ride pigs?'
"The majority of them."
"Do you have a bow?'
"Max has one, and like, 35 arrows."
"How long will it take to get back to your server?"
"If we take our tunnel, about a day."
Mel pulled out his stone sword, "All right, that's perfect. Time to begin what I call… Operation: PigKnight Rider."
Mel, Max, and Joe stuck their heads out of the hole. The sun was setting, and the gangs went into their bases (which were either dirt huts or foxholes). Max spotted 3 gang members, each one on a pig. Max pulled back and fired, the arrows killed them instantly.
First, Joe hopped on a pig, charging to the mountain range, killing the monsters on the left with his wooden hoe. Then Mel jumped on a pig, following behind Joe, killing the monsters on the right with his stone sword. Finally, Max jumped onto the last pig, trailing behind the others, killing any surviving monsters with his bow. In a matter of 10 minutes, they had reached the mountain range.
A week had passed, Max was constantly digging, but all they found was cobblestone, iron ore, and charcoal. Mel made himself an iron sword, Joe made an iron ax, while Max made torches. It was a while since anyone talked, until Max said, "Guys, I think we found a tunnel."
The trio walked along the torch light tunnel, until they found a colossal castle made out of cobblestone.
"INTRUDERS!" someone shouted.
Suddenly, a herd of diamond-armored archers charged out and pointed their arrows at the trio's heads. A drawbridge lowered, and dozens of more diamond-armored soldiers, equipped with diamond swords burst out, forming a line along the castle's entrance.
"I wonder what this is all about," whispered Mel.
"Maybe one of us did something bad to them in a past life," replied Max, "And by us, I mean Joe."
Before Joe could reply, a series of trumpets wailed, and 3 people walked out of the castle's entrance. In the middle was a young, teenage girl wearing a red tank-top, red jeans, and wore red gloves. On the right was a very tall robot that wore a green shirt and a purple robe. On the left was a young warrior with blonde hair that shot up like fire with bangs shaped like a spike, wearing a red shirt and a black robe, carrying a diamond sword molded into a katana shape.
"Do not worry, the travelers are not here to do any harm," said the girl, the soldiers lowered their weapons, "I am Princess Trina. The robot is my head advisor, Wizard, and that guy with the katana is my elite warrior, Toran."
"I'm Mel."
"I'm Joe."
"I'm Max."
"Would you like to stay here for a few days?" asked Trina.
The guys looked at each other, and nodded in agreement, "Sure, why not?"
"Great! Wizard, can you please prepare them a place to sleep?"
"Of course," Wizard bowed, and lead them into the castle.
