Chapter 2: Pixelated!

"What the!?" I thought as I woke up the next morning. My arms were pixelated. I was standing in the middle of a moorland, but this moorland was a minecraft moorland.I couldn't believe it. I was in minecraft! The moorland stretched out for a long ways, until it faded into a place with sparsely placed trees dotting the moorland. Beyond that, I couldn't see. Weird and scary. I knew I needed to eat. I went over to an oak tree. I looked through the leaves until I found an apple. I brought it up to my mouth and ate it. For a second, my hunger bar flashed before my eyes, telling me how hungry I was. It was full, but it hadn't been before. I could also see my health bar, telling me I had Full health. I decided I needed some food, so I looked for a cow, hoping I could get some more food before dark. I wandered into the woods. Where are you, cow? I kept going. It was getting dark, and I didn't want to run into any mobs. I realized I hadn't gotten any wood yet, something I needed to craft basic tools and weapons. I got some, but I didn't know how to make a crafting table, which I needed to make the tools. I tried a lot of things to get the crafting table made, even telepathically, but nothing worked. I slammed my hand down on the wood, screamed "CRAFTING TABLE!" Amazingly, a crafting table appeared in my hands. It worked! Huh. I hit the crafting table, and then said "stick." Nothing happened. Then I noticed a small waistband around my waist. I reached into a pocket and pulled out a stick. I got more wood and made a wooden sword. That should protect me against angry mobs like zombies and spiders for now. I kept going, hoping to find some stone to make a stronger sword.

I saw light. Lava? Whatever it was, mobs wouldn't be able to spawn near it, because they need a lower light level to spawn. I went toward it. Wood planks? And Cobblestone? And torches? It was a village. What should I do? Should I go and seek shelter farther in the woods? Or should I stay here for the night? Would the people help me? I decided not to take the risk. I crept into the village. Slowly, I went into what looked like the library, judging by the bookshelves. I froze. There, barely three blocks away from me, in white robes, was the sleeping librarian. I slowly backed out the door. When I turned around, there was a zombie.

"HHHHHHHUUUUURRRRRRR" it moaned. I slowly maneuvered around it and it only managed to hit me once with its green fist. I pulled out my wooden sword. I turned and slashed at it, once, twice, and three times. Finally, on the fourth hit, it turned red and disappeared. God, I was so low on hearts. I had, like two left. I felt like I was on fire. I slowly limped over to one of the small houses. I knew from experience that there were always two or three three by three by four houses. Slowly, I mended until I had about half my hearts left. This was no good. I went in the house. Wait. Mobs could spawn in there, and I couldn't protect myself with a wooden sword. Especially not against a skeleton. They could kill me with their bows without me being able to get a single hit on them. Then I saw another 3x3x4 house, and this one had a light coming from it. I crept over and looked inside. Inside was a small living space with a crafting table, a furnace,a small chest, and a bed. Inside the bed was a man with a basic Steve skin, a skin was what the person looked like. I wondered what my skin was. Could I go to third person view, so I could see myself? "Third person view?" I thought. Wow! It worked. I was in a blond skin, I looked like I was a bullrider. I had green eyes, just like I did when I was back in the real world.

There was a chest in the room. Maybe I could get what he had? Would the noise from opening it wake him? I had to risk it, I had almost nothing. I slowly opened the chest. Some wood and some utilities made of wood and one made of stone, a pickaxe! I needed a stronger sword, not something used for mining, something I didn't need to do right now. But there was some cobblestone and some leather, which I needed to make armor. I took the leather and the cobblestone and the food. He was cooking food in the furnace so it would fill his hunger bar more. I took what was done, the coal and the raw beef he hadn't finished cooking. As I was closing the chest, he stirred and woke up. "Stop! Thief!" He shouted.
