I think I fell asleep for too long. Oh well!
Chapter 7.
Icying's POV
I was so happy to see him alive and tidy. Well except his arm. I hoped he wouldn't realize the patched leg where the suicide bomber had blown up.
"Yoshi, I-" He cut me off,
"Your leg. You told me it was only a cut… It's obvious that you aren't hurt so bad that you can't walk…" He paused. "What on earth are you holding and wearing?!"
"Armor, we need to protect ourselves better. There is a lot I learned in the library today. I would advise going home. We can come back later to-"I paused to see if I would have to tell him everything that I had read about.
"Yeah I know. We need to go back here. Let's mark our path with torches or something and get OUT OF HERE!"
His cheerfulness seemed to never end. We retraced my path and discussed everything that we had seen after being separated. The hairy monsters, the abandoned mine shaft and library, the 'stronghold', and the baby spiders. I decided to name the hairy monsters silverfish after he described them to me. I created a sketch in the book. As for the suicide bomber, I selected the name creeper as for how quietly he snuck up on us. I handed Yoshi a set of diamond armor and a sword. I had enchanted all the weapons earlier with. Later though I think I'll go and try to create a bow along with some arrows.
I asked him while we were walking "Hey, what do you think about the mineshaft over here? It's man made."
He gazed for a little while "I think it's scary. They knew more things than we did, had larger numbers, and yet they perished."
He had an awful good point. We'd probably die to a monster. I doubt that there would ever be away that we could survive this now. Even if there is no chance of winning, I'd want to try rather than not do a thing and accept death. Even if we do defeat them would they still be totally gone, or would they keep themselves going?
I was studying how to create some of the golems ourselves. I remembered a long time ago in the deep of winter we had made a snow man. I had convinced myself it was a dream, but when we put a pumpkin on top of it, the snowman moved. I still had some snow left over. In addition I'd want to create some iron golems and a pack of tamed wolves. I remember a pack of wild wolves running about in the woods.
We reached the surface and we were quite lucky it was in the light of day. We scurried to our homes and rested in peace for a while. That was until I looked at my home. It had been damaged by a creeper. I gathered useful remains with him. I told him, "I suppose I could stay with you and your cat for the while." He nodded. I was pretty sure my dog was dead. A few minutes later my dog joyfully ran towards me. He sat on the ruins of my house. Yoshi picked up his tabby cat on his shoulder and stroked it. I suppose cats repel creepers. "There were two here." I said looking at the tracks that came from different origins. It seemed one try to blow up his house too, but saw the cat and scurried away. More or less I grabbed whatever I could rummage and pulled it into Yoshi's house.
I made dinner that night. Yoshi was sitting in a chair. "He's either asleep of just peaceful resting probably." I was brainstorming about the end. As I stirred a few mushrooms into a soup I thought, "The end huh? A realm where all the enderman come together… Scary. All I have to do though is not make eye contact with them." I woke up from my day dream to the sound of over-filling, sizzling soup. I quickly turned down the fire and cleaned up the spilled soup. I served the stew in a bowl and we ate dinner in silence.
That night we heard the constant thudding of zombies trying to break in. We didn't know what to do until we settled on an idea. Yoshi sheathed his sword and prepared to strike. I opened the door and the zombie tumbled face forward. Yoshi made a quick sprint to strike it in the stomach. He disappeared while we breathed in an exhausted manner.
We discussed what to do with the materials. All iron would be used to create an army of iron golems. Diamonds would be used for battle gear and tools beside hoes. (Hoes were made of stone.) Before we went to bed I laid a trap in front of the door. I dug a ditch so any monster who tried to intrude would fall in and be burnt by morning. Hopefully, Yoshi notices the ditch and avoids falling in. I called this trap the bait trap. We all snuck in bed with our beloved pets. I fell asleep to the sound of bones clanking.
Ugh I tried to write more than normal, I ended up with not as much as I wanted but what else can I do? So sleepy… I still have to stay up for later though XD
