HELLO THERE EVERYBODY! BTR100 OVER HERE with the ninth Chapter to my Story: Minecraft: The Chosen One!

So, after a school week full of epic proportions, I have finally returned! We just checked some of our exam papers, and I got a surprisingly high grade in Mathematics and Basic Statistics. I even managed to beat my crush's score for the first time in Basic Statistics too.

Okay, so back to the story!

Maybe after chapter 10, I'll start putting the "Previously On", just like what I did to some of my stories.

Peace!-Btr100


After finally finding the cave where the two girls: Lea and Ashley, are supposed to be located, defeating his first dungeon, finding two diamonds which were enough to craft himself a sword, riding on a mine cart all the way down to a dead end blocked by zombies, skeletons, a creeper and a spider. After bashing right through the horde of monsters, and making his epic way down the ravine, as well as finding enough Gold Ingots to craft himself a Golden Apple, Steve finally reached a ravine, in hopes of finding diamonds and finding the girls.

However, Steve found one more reason why he should be in the ravine, and he found that reason, after hearing a scream.

After hearing a woman's scream coming from the tunnel on his back, he quickly grabbed his iron sword and iron axe and prepared his bow and arrows, before running towards the tunnel where the scream came from, and despite the tunnel being well lit, the miner could still see broken skeleton parts, deceased zombie and spider bodies and Ender Pearls all on the floor.

Not only that, but he also saw tons of signs that explosions happened. Heaps of rubble and stone and bricks were scattered all across the room, burn marks were all over the place, and stone blocks were scattered all across the room. Steve then had a thought in his mind about the girl..

"Damn. Whoever this girl is, she doesn't scream without putting up a heck of a fight. And she sure has a ton of TNT, I can tell." Steve said, before running faster towards the source of the scream.

After a few seconds, Steve finally saw arrows on the floor, as well as blood marks and blood stains on the walls and floors, the smell of rotten decay of dead zombie's flesh, and as well hearing a soft moan and groan from the girl Steve was supposed to rescue...

"Please...help me...Can't...take..much...longer..." the voice said, and the miner ran, before finally seeing what he was looking floor, and he gasped at the horrible thing he saw.

The girl, who had a red hair in a ponytail, was lying on the ground, eyes nearly closed as she was fighting for survival. She was severely injured, receiving an arrow on both of her knees and two arrows on her stomach, as well as a wound that came from the tip of a sword on her left shoulder. The girl was full of bruises and wounds, as her purple t-shirt and blue shorts were now ripped. The girl was still holding her bow, before turning her head towards the direction of Steve .

The miner then ran and kneeled in front of the girl, putting down both of his iron weaponry, before lifting her head from the cold ground full of her blood, before settling her on the wall. He looked at his hand to see that it was full of blood, and it made him dead serious. He had to get this girl somewhere safe fast, or else she might not make it.

"Don't worry. Please, just hold on for a little bit longer. I'm going to take you somewhere safe." Steve said, before attempting to lift the girl, but then she spoke to the miner once more, her voice slowly fading as she spoke...

"Please...I...I...don't have anything...that...you...want...p-please...Spare...me..." The girl said, as she finally closed her eyes. Steve then placed his hand on her neck, before finding a pulse. Her breathing still seemed obvious, but Steve still need to take the girl somewhere safe, before she loses a lot of blood. He then grabbed her, before lifting her bridal style, but he did it at the worst of times.

The miner then heard a groan from a zombie, the noises of a spider, the footsteps of a skeleton and the hiss of a creeper.

"Why now!?" Steve thought, before turning around to see four zombies, five spiders, three skeletons, and two creepers. Steve had to get the girl away from them, especially from the skeletons and the creepers as the skeletons are the longest ranged, while the creepers have the most lethal attack. The miner knew that he couldn't run from the horde of monsters, so he might as well face them in any way he can.

"If I ran away from them, they'll just keep going after me and the girl. I will have to beat them in some way." Steve thought, backing away as he the horde of monsters slowly charged in on him and the girl he was carrying. The miner then let go of the girl's legs, forcing to hold the girl by her back, as he attempted to grab something useful from his bag.

"Where are those TNT!?" Steve said, as he continued to back away from the horde of monsters slowly advancing in on him, while trying to find the explosive block that he desperately needs right now. He heard the monsters groan and moan, while he was searching in his bag. He then felt in his hand a block, and he noticed that he also felt a string, and the miner smirked as he pulled out a TNT block from his bag.

The miner then dodged multiple arrows from the three skeletons, quickly throwing the TNT block in retaliation. Steve, still carrying the severely injured girl, ran away as fast as he can, just before the TNT block exploded on contact, quickly killing each and every one of the monsters. The miner smirked, proud of himself as he quickly ran out of the tunnel, ran across the cobblestone bridge over the river of lava, before running towards the long, artificially made tunnel, which was probably the exit.

"Please be an exit. This has gotta be an exit out of this hill!" Steve said to himself, as he ran, the girl in his hands moaning as she still felt pain...

"Please...I...don't...wanna...d-die..." the girl moaned as Steve ran faster and faster, as the miner began to see the light of the sun in the distance, and the miner hoped that was the exit. Steve then continued to run, before he looked at the severely wounded and injured girl in his arms, desperately needing help, before looking back towards the exit.

"Don't worry...Please just hold on a little bit longer...You're going to live through this one..I promise that..." Steve said, as he ran faster and faster, hoping that the girl in his arms managed to hear the words he just said, and continue fighting her own battle.

After a couple of seconds, Steve and the girl finally managed to reach the end of the tunnel, which was indeed the exit out of the deep caves and back into the surface again. The miner looked to see that he was at the bottom of the hill, meaning that the ravine that he explored on earlier was a really deep one, but the miner was just glad that he managed to get the girl out of the caves...

"I need to build shelter and cover up her wounds..." Steve said as he looked at the large plains with trees all over the place. The miner then looked at the sun, to see that it was only a few hours until sundown, and that's when the bad things will start to happen.

"And FAST!" Steve said, before running quickly towards the nearest tree.

After finding an oak tree, the miner gently placed down the wounded girl on the tree. When the miner placed down the girl on the tree, he then placed his hands on her neck to feel a pulse, feeling one a few seconds later. He then checked her breathing, which was slow, but very evident that she was still breathing. Steve then stood up, grabbed the oak planks from his bag and he started to build a small shelter to stay through the night.

Steve then started to place the oak wood planks, planning to make a house that is five blocks wide, four blocks long and three blocks tall. After finally finishing the house, and leaving a two block tall hole for an entrance, Steve then placed the remaining oak wood planks back in his bag and he ran towards the unconscious girl by the tree, before lifting her up again, and carrying her towards the house, before gently placing her down in the cold, yet comfortable grass floor.

After placing the girl down inside the small house, Steve then grabbed some dirt blocks from his bag and placed it on the entrance, blocking it so that no monsters or creepers will ever come inside the small house. The miner then looked at the unconscious girl once again and kneeled beside her, before going to work...

Steve first removed her inventory bag, her bag for her arrows and he took the bow that she was still holding, placing all of them in the ground. Steve then opened her inventory bag to check if she had any materials needed to cover up wounds and the only things that Steve found useful were several pieces of cloth and leather.

The miner then quickly used the cloth to wrap up the wounds on her arms, and used strips of leather to cover up the sword wounds located on both of her shoulders. After wrapping up some of her wounds, Steve then thought about how to remove the arrows from the girl's body. He was shot by several arrows before, and he merely pulled them out, but doing that to the girl will jut cause more pain instead of relief.

"Okay...how do I do this?" Steve said. He then remembered his younger days when his father was still teaching him...

Flashback...

Young Steve was gathering some water from the village well, and when he now had all three buckets filled with water, he then carried them back to his house, but then the young child dropped his buckets when he heard a somebody shouting for help.

"HELP! HELP! I NEED HELP!" the voice shouted, and Steve left the buckets on the ground in order to run towards the source of the scream, as he wanted to help whoever it was in need of assistance, before he was joined by some of the nearby villagers.

After a couple of minutes, young Steve and the villagers then arrived to see one of the villagers who went out mining last night, was lying on the ground, heavily injured with several arrows on his knees and arms. He attempted to stand, only to fall down back again in pain, before being carried by none other than Steve's father.

"Come Steve. Let us bring him to the house and heal him. I will show you how to help people in situations like this." Steve's father said, before walking towards their house, with young Steve joining his father and it wasn't long before they reached their house, Steve opening the door for his father carrying the injured miner.

Steve's father then placed the unconscious miner in one of the beds. Steve's father was also good in healing and taking care of injured people, so he had many beds in their house just in case a lot of their villagers were injured during a siege. As soon as he placed the miner on the bed, Steve came closer as his father noticed his son come closer.

Steve's father merely smiled, before going back to work. Steve's father then looked at the arrows that penetrated through the miner's body, checking if they ran too deep through the miner's body. Steve's father then broke the arrow's body, throwing it on the floor. He then proceeded to pull out the arrow head as gently as he could. It still caused some pain for the miner, but the pain was merely short as the arrow head was completely removed.

Steve watched as his father repeated the process over again until all of the arrows that injured the miner were removed. His father then proceeded with wrapping up the miner's wounds with pieces of cloth, before walking away in order to brew a healing potion for the miner....

Present time...

Steve then grabbed one of the arrows on the girl's stomach area, before breaking the arrow's body, throwing it on the ground. Without any hesitation, the miner then proceeded to grab the arrow head deep inside the girl's stomach. After a couple of seconds, Steve finally managed to pull out the arrow head from the girl's stomach, and it was full of blood. Steve then threw the bloody arrow head onto the ground, before proceeding with the other arrows..

After managing to safely remove the arrows without causing the girl too much pain, Steve then proceeded to wrap the remaining wounds up with the cloth and cover little wounds with strips of leather. The miner then ended it by wrapping the last piece of cloth all over the girl's stomach area, as it was the area with the largest wounds.

When Steve was done covering up the girl's wounds, the miner then settled down on the wall, looking at his hands which were totally covered with blood. It looked like Steve mercilessly and brutally killed somebody, but despite his blood covered hands, the miner did not hesitate to eat some good steak, eating it as he watched the girl sleep and play in the dimension of sleep and dreams.

Steve looked at the girl once again as he finished eating his steak. He looked at the girl's ponytailed red hair, purple t-shirt and blue short and as well at her worn-out bow and her bag with tons of arrows. Remembering quite quickly from his earlier visions, Steve then crawled towards the girl, before touching her soft face with his bloody hands...

"Lea...one of the girls who was supposed to find me..." Steve said, before taking off his hand from her face, ripping out a small piece of his shirt, before using it to clean up the blood stains he left on her cheek.

"But...where's your sister?" Steve asked, remembering the ravine he and Lea just went out of...

...

Meanwhile...

Back inside the ravine Steve and Lea just gotten out of, there was yet another miner and it was a girl. She had orange brown hair that flowed down to her shoulders and she had green eyes. She wore a turquoise t-shirt with a creeper face on it, with light blue shorts. The girl was Ashley and the young miner held an iron pickaxe on her right hand, with her sword strapped on her back and she was heading towards the same tunnel where Steve found a heavily injured Lea.

"Lea? Where are you!? Come on Lea! I found ten diamonds!" Ashley shouted, before walking, eventually seeing the tunnel. From the tunnel going over the cobblestone bridge she built and through the artificial tunnel that both she and Lea built, was a trail of blood. Ashley's eyes widened and she gasped, before running over the cobblestone bridge and through the well lit, artificial tunnel.

"Oh Lea...please be safe..." Ashley said to herself, as she ran through the long tunnel towards the bottom of the hill.

After a couple of minutes, Ashley then managed to find the exit, only to discover that it was already night time and that lots of monsters were now roaming in the lands. The young adventurer then grabbed an invisibility potion from her bag that she and her sister managed to brew before they reached the cave, before drinking it, turning invisible a few minutes later.

Without any of the monsters noticing it, Ashley ran through the land, following the trail of blood, which must be from her sister Lea...

"Don't worry Lea...Wherever you are...I'm coming for you..." Ashley said, before running faster, following the trail of blood all the way, none of the monsters ever noticing her and ignoring the sounds of her footsteps as the young adventurer ran and followed the blood trail...

...

Back to Steve and Lea...

In the small house Steve made for the night, the miner now fell asleep, his sword and bow as well as his bag of arrows strapped on his back. His bag is sitting on the floor, right beside the miner.

However, as the young miner slept, Lea began to open her eyes. Not too long after, Lea was finally awake and she slowly stood up from where she slept. The girl was unaware of her surroundings, surprised that she was now inside a small house alongside a sleeping man with bloody hands. Lea then found her inventory bag and bow right beside her, before picking them up.

She then looked at herself, surprised to see wrapped cloths and strips of leather covering her wounds, before looking at the pieces of broken, bloody arrows on the floor as well as the bloody hands of the sleeping miner right in front of him.

"I remember myself in a cave... getting beaten by an Enderman with the help of two skeletons..." Lea said to herself, looking at her covered wounds, guessing that the miner in front of her must have removed the arrows and covered her wounds, resulting in getting bloody hands as well as the pieces of arrows on the floor.

Lea then slowly walked over to Steve, looking at the sleeping miner's face as he snored silently.

"I also remembered seeing his face before I finally passed out..." Lea said to herself, finding Steve's face..familiar...

After looking at the sleeping miner's face, Lea gasped as her eyes widened, suddenly remembering one thing...

"Where's Ashley!? She still might be in the caves, still looking for diamonds!" Lea thought to herself, and knowing that it was night, she took out her iron sword, needing to return to the caves in hopes of finding her younger sister. She was about to dig the dirt exit, but then she looked at Steve, who was still sleeping, knowing that she needed to pay him for taking care of her for a while.

Lea then grabbed two diamonds from her bag, before placing them right beside Steve, hoping it was enough for the miner when he wakes up...

The redhead then heard someone dig from under the ground, and she turned around to see that a hole was now in front of her, and out of the hole was the girl she was about to look for...

"Ashley!" Lea said softly, so as to not awaken the sleeping Steve, who was apparently having a really deep sleep, not stirring to the sounds of digging Lea's sister, Ashley just made.

"Lea!" Ashley shouted, but her older sister quickly held her mouth shut, as the redhead and her sister looked t the sleeping miner, and fortunately for them, Steve didn't managed to hear Ashley's scream, and merely turned around in his sleep. The girls sighed in relief, before looking back at each other.

"Girl! What happened to you!? I was finished mining ten diamonds and then I saw this blood trail that led to this small house!" Ashley said, in a soft voice however. Lea took a deep breath, before replying to her sister's question.

"Well, this miner found me after I was nearly killed by an Enderman with his skeleton friends. He apparently took me into this small house and wrapped up my wounds using some of my cloth and leather and also removed the arrows on me, so in return, I placed two diamonds beside him as payment..." Lea replied, looking at Steve again as he slept deeply.

"Well, we're going back in the caves. We need to gather some redstone before going back to the village." Ashley said.

"But we haven't found Steve yet..." Lea replied.

"Maybe the other search teams managed to find him." Ashley said.

"But we made a promise to return to the village with Steve! We made that promise to his parents and I intended to keep it! Whether you like it or not..." Lea sternly replied...

"Oh alright...we'll go back to the caves, gather redstone for the village THEN we will find Steve. Sounds good?" Ashley asked.

"Sounds much better." Lea said, before jumping into the hole with Ashley, Lea's younger sister managing to see the sleeping miner's vulnerable inventory bag and being the cheeky one, she had plans.

"Just wait a second there Lea! I'm going to give this guy two diamonds as well!" Ashley said, before climbing out of the hole and crawling towards the sleeping miner. She grabbed two diamonds from her bag and placed it near the diamonds Lea recently placed, before grabbing the miner's vulnerable inventory bag and equipping it alongside her own bag, before crawling back towards the hole.

"Okay! We're good to go." Ashley said to her sister, before they went back towards the cave, hoping to find some redstone back in the deep mines...

But unfortunately for the two girls, both of them already managed to reach their goal: finding Steve...but neither of them managed to recognized the poor miner they were looking for...


Poor Steve. Neither of the two girls noticed the miner! And one of them stole his bag!

How will he retaliate?

Let's find out in the next chapter!
