Chapter 4: Close encounters
The person pointing the knife in front of me was a short girl wearing a blackish blue long sleeve skirt shirt with stripes on the sleeves covering her flat chest and wearing shoes and long socks with the same color. She had dark purple hair with two short bushy twin tails tied with two red beads on each of the tails. She had a cute young face and red eyes with a mean stare. It looks like she is one of Terra's friends, judging by how fast she was able to get behind it would be pointless to run away now. What should I do? The girl in front of me started to talk.
"We heard the whole story from Terra, but we still don't trust you." She said.
I guess Terra wasn't able to convince them. Better get out of here.
"It's because I'm human right, if that's the case I understand I should get going" I told her.
"I won't tell anybody about this place" She gave me an even meaner look. I immediately went silent.
"Didn't you here what I just said we don't trust you" She repeated.
"You filthy humans always murder us for materials, if it's not that you murder us for pleasure" Her eyes became narrow as she looked at me.
I can admit that I used to be like that back when mobs actually look blocky and are supposed to kill you but that was before I came to this world and met Terra.
"I'm not like them, so please trus-" I said.
"Like hell I can!" She shouted and put the knife closer to my neck. I swallowed my fear at the moment and tried to look calm. I guess not all the mobs I encounter will be like Terra.
"Don't you dare tell me that!" She shouted again, tears started dripping from her eyes. I decided to keep my mouth shut.
"Do you know how many of my friends and family have died by the hands of your kind." She said as her head tilted downward.
"We may be mobs, the truth is you humans are the real monsters!" She tilted her head back up as she looked at me with hateful eyes.
She was angry and at the same time sad. It seems that she has been through a lot, I don't think comforting her would really help my situation, but I couldn't just do nothing in front of a crying girl.
"I..." I was about to say something when I saw a small glint of light in the bushes in behind her. I couldn't see what it was until I noticed it was coming straight towards us.
Whoosh
"...?" I squinted my eyes to get a better view. It was an arrow, from how it was aimed it's going to hit the girl in front of me. She was looking at me with the same mean stare from before. I've got to do something quick before she gets hit.
"Um, hello what are you looking a-" She said.
"Get down!" I shouted. I grabbed her shoulder and pushed her aside.
" Kyaah!" Thud She screamed loudly as she fell to the ground.
"What do you think your doing you filthy hu-"
"...!" Before she can complete her sentence, she gasped and went silent as she saw me. She was on the ground, looking at me with wide eyes. I looked back at her with the arrow in my leg.
"Didn't I tell you, I'm not like them" That was the last thing I said before I fell on my knees.
"So this is what taking damage in this world feels like... Heh" I could actually feel the arrow through my leg and the pain it was giving me was unbearable, this wasn't a simulation created by the system this was real.
"Zach!" A voice called.
"Zach!" The voice called again. Someone was calling my name. I looked in front of me it was Terra, she was running towards me and followed by three other people.
"Zach are you alright?!" She had a worried expression and soon bended down to look at my injury.
"Yeah, I'm fine" I said. I gave her a smile trying to relieve her worries and turned to the arrow lodged in my leg. It took out thirty percent of my health I should be healing now, but my health bar didn't move an inch. Oh right, no hunger bar means that I cant just heal by eating food. Is it because of the arrow? I have to pull it out soon or else my health won't go back up.
"Come on let's get you inside" Terra said and pulled me, but as soon as I stood up...
"Alright, Ah!" Terra tried to help me, but pain shot up from my leg, I've got to pull it out. I gripped the arrow and pulled it.
"Erragh!"I gave a shout of pain as I pulled it out.
"Zach are you alright?!" I got the arrow out of my leg and threw it aside. I looked at my health bar it was starting to go back up bit by bit. I guess healing is also different now.
"I am now" I said.
I got up on my feet. One of the girls help the purple haired girl on the ground. They all went straight to the door. I followed them inside. I stepped inside and they were all standing there waiting for me.
"Please sit we would like to talk to you" Said one of the girls.
I quickly sat down on one of the chairs. There were 5 girls in front of me including Terra, the purple haired girl and 3 others I don't know.
The first of the 3 was a gray haired girl, she had a long ponytail reaching her back. She was dressed in gray clothes her top being a short sleeveless vest with her breasts that could explode out of her chest. The only problem is that it did not entirely cover her breasts, there was a zipper but it as only zipped at her neck and a clip at the bottom to keep it together, but in the middle of it her breasts can be seen. I tried my best not to look there while she was in front of me. She was wearing long gloves at her fore arms. For her bottom she was wearing short shorts with knee socks and gray shoes.
"Okay, before we start I would like to say that we are sorry for what happened a while ago, we wanted to see if we can really trust you" She bowed down as a sign of respect. I was a bit surprised I'm not used to this kind of politeness. I was starting to feel embarrassed and didn't know what to say to her.
"Um, well I am still alive so it's okay" I said nervously. She raised her head and smiled, I smiled back at her.
"Aw, what! No apology for almost getting shot!" The short purple haired girl shouted and stared daggers at her. Well I guess she seems really mad that she was almost shot at, even if they are friends.
"Oh, right sorry to you too" She gray haired girl said.
"You could have at least told me that you guys were going to that!" The purple headed girl shouted back.
"What were you going to do if I got actually got hurt huh!" She shouted again.
She continued to shout furiously and started to look at each one of the girls. Everybody else in the room had their mouth shut and tried to avoid eye contact from her.
"Again I'm sorry, so please chill out" The gray haired girl said.
"Hmph!" She purple haired girl said. She crossed her arms and looked away. The gray haired girl looked back at me.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce ourselves" She said.
"My name is Alice, I'm a skeleton" She said.
She's a skeleton!? I mean I get the bow and all, but for a skeleton she has quite a large chest.
"I know right, for a skeleton she has an abnormal breast size" A voice said.
I looked over it was one of the other girls. She was short, but not as short as Terra or the purple haired girl with her height at my neck. This girl was dressed in a green hoodie with different shades of green on it. She had pink hair and green eyes. She was wearing green knee socks and green shoes. Her chest had a considerable size as it was covered by her hoodie. I kept my mouth shut, even though she was right.
"Christia! Not this again!" Alice shouted.
"Well it's true" A voice said. I looked at the other two standing.
"You too!?" Alice said.
"It's so unfair, your a skeleton and yet you have such large breasts!" said the other purple headed girl.
"I'm 19!" Alice responded.
"So! We're about a year or two younger than you and yet look at our chests" The pink headed girl said.
"At least you have some!" Alice exclaimed.
So she's just a year older than me finally I met someone close to my age. I stayed quiet the entire time that they were arguing until Terra cut them short.
"Girls, focus can we continue this discussion later" Terra said cutting in between them. Everyone stopped arguing and looked back.
"I'm so sorry, they're just like that" Alice said.
"Um...I don't mind" I told her with my slightly blushed face.
"The person who just commented on my breasts, her name is Christie she's 17" Alice said.
"She's a creeper, she's really nice and expressive, but she has an explosive personality so please don't provoke her" Alice said.
Creepers, creepers are a menace to builders in Minecraft because they will run toward you and will explode and destroy anything in a five block radius, even I rage quitted with these mobs. I was actually a bit scared when I heard those word come out of Alice's mouth, this is the first time I've been this close to a creeper without it blowing up yet. She's only a year younger than me, well I guess that's fine but I'm still a bit petrified.
"Please don't make fun about that okay, because its not going to happen anytime soon." Christia said. She noticed I was looking at her and she gave me a smile and a wink. I didn't know what that meant since knowing me so I smiled back at her.
"The short purple headed girl who almost tried to kill you a while ago her name is Levi. She's 15 and she's a cave spider" Alice said.
Cave spiders are spiders that live in caves and mine shafts and will give a poison effect if hit by one. They are very aggressive and will attack on sight. She was trying to avoid eye contact at me, probably after what happened a while ago. Ah, so she's also younger than me only a year older than Terra. I looked at the girl beside her, the girl beside her was dressed in a long sleeve black skirt shirt in the same design as Levi covering her breasts, She had red eyes, long dark purple hair with a head band with two red beads on it. She was wearing black knee socks and black shoes. (Note: Her breasts aren't as small as Christia's or as big as Alice's its more of in the middle)
"The person standing beside her is her cousin Lilith" Alice said, pointing to her.
So she's her cousin huh, well I can see the resemblance.
"She's 18, she's a spider by the way." Alice said.
Spiders are different from cave spiders because they do not have poison and will only attack at night. They will be friendly during the day unless they are attacked. Hm, there was a person who was the same age as me in this group huh. She looked at me and said with a smile.
"Let's get along well" she said with a cheerful smile. Alice went closer and whispered.
"Don't take that smile for granted" She retracted. I didn't know what that was, but I heeded her words.
"You've already met Terra it seems she has quite the trust in you" Terra looked at me and smiled I did the same. Alice gave me a smile and said.
"Zach, was it?, we hope we can all get along together" Alice said
"Same here" I said.
