"Hurry up Casey it's getting dark" I yelled to my sister who was falling behind.
"OK, OK i know" she panted.
By now the moon was rising and it was becoming very dark very quickly. Come on all most there I thought to myself. In the distance I could see monsters rising from the ground, a chill went down my spine.
Then suddenly a blood stained arrow whizzed past my face missing me by a few centimeters, I looked in front of me. A skeleton holding a bow stood before me. But this skeleton was anything but dead, he stood two meters tall and it's eye's glowed red with anger.
It fired again, the arrow would have hit me if hadn't jumped to left that was close I thought. I looked behind me to check where Casey was she was about 50 meters behind me and hadn't yet noticed what was going on.
Psssssssst
The noise of an arrow being fling towards me rang in my ears. Then i felt a horrible pain in my shoulder i had been shot in the arm! I stumbled then fell to the hard ground i gripped my shoulder in hope to stop the free flowing blood but i didn't stop the blood flow. The skeleton walked towards me and stared at me with it's cold lifeless eyes.
I reached for my sword but it was gone.
My vision was getting blurry. The skeleton loaded it's arrow and readied it's bow . . . Then yelped in pain as it fell to the ground and and smashed into heap of ashes. I looked up before me stood a smiling Casey holding my sword "thanks" I said as Casey tossed me my sword. I raised myself from the ground only to realize we were surrounded by more skeletons and many zombies.
And they were closing in . . .
I slashed at the beasts with my sword but there were way too many of them and we had no hope in killing them all.
CRACK SPLASH
We suddenly surrounded in red smoke.
I looked at my shoulder and saw the arrow in my left shoulder fall out of my shoulder and the wound seal it self up and my left arm felt way stronger it wasn't broken anymore.
Wow.
The smoke cleared and piles of bones were littered everywhere. I looked around and saw a boy who looked like he was 13 he wore a black hoodie with the hood pulled over his head and he also wore dark blue jeans which were littered with holes he also was where in a satchel which was filled with multicolored potions.
"Who are you" i asked.
He pulled the hood off his head revealing his face he had messy black slightly curly hair and a long scar across his forehead.
"My name is Jalal" the boy said.
"Thank you for your help" Casey said happily properly glad she wasn't dead. "Your welcome" Jalal said "come with me i'll take you to my village" he added. We walked with him and soon reached his village with no monsters attacking us few monsters would walk up to us and prepare to attack but would then see the glowing potions and run away, how weird.
We followed him into a medium sized house and sat down. "Ok adventurers what are you doing out here?" Jalal asked "What are your name's?" he added.
"umm OK i'm Bandit Cells and this is Casey Cells my sister" I said.
"We're out here to kill the Ender Dragon and steal a gem from it for money" i added.
"We were separated from our friends: Erin and Kostya . . . and that's about it" I said "Are you still going to the end?" Jalal asked.
"Yes" me and Casey said at the same time.
"Well . . . um . . . can i come? please . . . " Jalal asked.
I looked at Casey, she nodded her head. "OK then Jalal" I said.

Erin and Kostya walked through Ginda Forest they had found a small opening through the trees that acted like walls of the forest. They had been walking towards the mountains the journal they had found said the stronghold which housed the portal to the end could be found there.
"Here we are" Erin said before her stood a massive wall of rock with a cave opening which was almost 7 meters tall and 4 wide.
"That's a big cave" Kostya said in awe.
"Well what are we waiting for let go in" Erin said. The inside was even bigger it around 11 meters tall and 7 wide it was dotted with patches of iron and coal and was filled with sleeping bats.
"Be VERY careful not to wake them they make a huge racket if you do" Erin said whispered "OK" replied Kostya softly
CRUCH.
Kostya looked down he had just stood on a pile of rocks. One of the bats opened it's yellow eyes.
SHHHHHEEEEEEEE
The bat cry as if it were an alarm suddenly every single bat awoke and screamed
SHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEE
They cried, Erin and Kostya took off running down the cave. Only to run into a herd of dark blue spiders. Green poison dripped from their fangs they hissed angrily and prepared to attack.
Kostya reached for his sword but it was gone. He turned around a spider hanging from web was holding it in it's fangs it stared at Kostya before swinging away in the darkness.
Erin readied her bow but when she reached for her arrows she was filled with horror.
She was out of arrows
They now had no way of fighting back they were going to die . . .
