It was a beautiful afternoon, the birds were singing, the sky was blue… it was perfect day to stay.

"Shit… damn Scott took my wallet," I muttered.

I hear a voice calling out to me as I unlock my room. My first thought was that it was Scott, my elementary school bully that followed me into college, coming to take something else of mine. Rushing and slamming the door, I let out a long sigh… Just from a look in my dorm, a thought came to mind.

"What a damn mess I've created here," I spoke to myself, "meh, I'll clean it tomorrow."

Being the lazy, procrastinating youth that I am, I toss my bag into the living room/kitchen and head straight for my bedroom. Which has my computer. I stare at the black monitor; getting a good look of what I have become. A feeling of emptiness, depression, and regret rules over my emotions. Grey messy hair… the skin that shines brighter than snow, skinnier than a model, and my eyes… that was the weirdest feature that I have. The iris of them were reddish with a tinge of orange. My parents and the doctors were surprised to see me when I was born. They'd be more surprised today, the young healthy strong child reduced to some lanky tall vampire-like weakling.

I look at the top right corner of the screen… Quinn… it was in yellow and pink. Wrote it when I was 12… I'm 17 now. Well, enough regretting my life decisions. I bent down and turn on the power to my computer and head towards the bathroom to clean of the dirt and grime that Scott and his "friends" have beaten onto me. I heard some strange noise coming from my PC but thought nothing of it. Sitting back down into my chair, I forgot to turn on the monitor. I click the button and I'm faced with the old fashioned windows background of just plains. Caught by surprised a yelped... All my documents and other shortcuts have vanished including the taskbar. All that's left is just Minecraft sitting smack-dab in the center of the screen. Well, all is not lost. I was planning to play a butt-load of it anyway.

I reach for my mouse and double-clicked the icon. I was expecting the start-up screen showing updates and what not but my screen started shaking and levitated an inch above the desk. Being the coward, I fell backwards in my chair landed pretty badly back. I got back up with a slight hunched-back.

"What in the name of hell?" I groaned.

The screen was displaying Minecrafts dirt texture and a question in golden blocks.

'Would you like to play?'

There was only one option though.

'Yes'

Well that isn't creepy at all, being the idiotic white guy I am. Then the floor just suddenly broke under me, strange enough, every single bit of what was my room was replaced by Minecraft's block textures: stone, wood, clay, even the doors looked like they were from Minecraft.

"This is probably the weirdest dream I've possibly ever had," I said

Only… it felt too real. I pinched myself and felt a sting run up on my arm. The blocks disappeared and I was surrounded by code, ones and zeroes. The wind rushing against the back of my neck was cold. I was in a really uncomfortable position but to my benefit, I was able to move around.

The feeling of helplessness was definitely there. I was staring down into the green numbers and then they vanished. Everything was black… but what was this familiar feeling? I saw some gray particles and lack of oxygen. Only reasonable answer? I was in the void. I kept falling down, and down, and down. Hold on… I think I see mountains covered in forestry, except all blocky. Well this should be obvious to me by now, I'm in Minecraft. This is way too strange to believe though. I look down to see water rushing towards me 80 miles an hour.

Fuck.

It looks like I'm going to die… I close my eyes and embrace for death. Few moments later, I realized I'm submerged in water. I'm not dead. I'm not dead? I'M NOT DEAD!

A hand plunges in the water and pulls my out by the arm. A rather chubby man, sporting a beard is smiling at me.

"Hello Quinn!" he chimes, "Welcome to Minecraft! My name is Notch!"

So how was THAT for a reboot? Eh? COULD YOU FEEL THE IMPROVEMENT?! CAN YOU!? Thanks for reading :)
