Chapter 8: The God

"How did you do that?" I asked Notch.

"Well, I'm a god, basically." he replied.

"I created this world."

"How!" I asked.

"With powers."

"Herobrine has his own powers too."

"He lives in his own dimension, the nether."

"What is in the nether?" I asked.

"The nether is a place like hell." Notch replied.

"It is a fiery world with lava and hostile creatures."

"It is a dark, dark world."

"How do we get to the nether?" I asked.

"We need to make a portal." Notch said.

"We need flint and steel and obsidian."

"To obtain obsidian, we need diamonds."

"So lets start mining." I said.

I crafted myself a stone pickaxe.

We started to drill through the ground together.

We made the mine in a stair pattern so we could return to the surface after we are finished mining.

After a few minutes of mining we came across a mineshaft.

"Wow!" I exclaimed.

"What is this?"

"It is a mineshaft." Notch said.

"A large amount of ores are found here."

"Maybe even diamonds."

The mineshaft had creaking wooden flooring and a few torches in various areas.

I spotted some coal on the ceiling and begun to mine it.

Notch was busy mining a vein of iron ore in the corner.

Suddenly something started hitting me.

It was a zombie!

I threw it against the wall and started to beat it up.

The cave started to collapse."

"Steve!" Notch yelled as he disappeared behind a wall of falling stone.

"Notch!" I yelled back, but there was no reply.

I started mining through the wall, but it felt endless.

It felt like I was making no progress at all.

I decided to go around and find Notch.

I followed the tunnels in the cave until I came upon a ravine.

"Oh geez!" I yelled as I studied the drop below."

There was a lake of lava at the bottom as well.

Various mobs hung in the crevices of the ravine.

Waiting for me to take the wrong move.

Despite all this, I spotted numerous patches of iron, gold and lapis lazuli.

I had some wood with me and a workbench so I crafted some ladder.

I carefully climbed down to the bottom the ravine.

Out of nowhere, skeletons fired arrows at me and I ran for cover.
