Hey it's me again! Sorry about the absence for several years. I have recently found myself with more time on my hands than I knew what to do with so once again here I am. I do not think I said this in this story yet but it would be really cool if someone took an idea from my story and a good one with it. Anyway since so much has happened in the Yogscast since I last updated I have decided that this story is taking place just before Simon got sick. This in no way represents any factual occurrence. Also the world of Minecraft is not just like the normal game physics. More like the Minecraft story mode by telltale games.
Ambulance sirens blared in Bristol as an extremely sick Simon Lane was rushed to the hospital. This strange sudden occurrence caused thousands of fans to freak out and fill the comments of Yogscast channels with comments asking where he was. However only one person aside from Simon Lane truly knew.
Hannah sat achingly in a chair in her apartment. Life after the Merge had been strange to say the least. Having two sets of memory confused Hannah before she had been able to gain any semblance of balance between the two lives she had lived. For now she mainly focused on the life she had lived on earth as those memories were the more important for day to day life. This world and the other were both similar but many key aspects of the world were different. For example on earth nobody was able to rapidly switch between nine different objects in their hands and in Minecraft objects crowded the other out making wiring inside of walls difficult.
Perhaps the most important case would be in the matter of how people survived. The differences in this regard were both subtle and obvious depending on the issue. In the end the physics of the two worlds was too confusing to accurately compare. The important bit revolved around Simon. He had suffered some wounds in Minecraft that were not too serious for dwarf but here they had caused some terrible things to get messed up inside of him.
Hannah looked down at her stomach where she had been shot by Kim. She suppressed a shudder when she thought about what lay under her jacket. Another difference between the two worlds was scarring. Lomadia was not sure if she wanted to complete the Merge with everyone if they would all have scars. She shuddered and rolled over.
Duncan had an idea. In the new series he would have several different alter egos. That would be wonderful. He had been feeling very conflicted with what he wanted his newest series to be about. More than he should have to be honest. Anyway he would make clones. Some clones would be friendly to Kim and some would hate Kim. It would all work out. Duncan rubbed his head to suppress a headache. Maybe I should get that checked out.
Robert Moran looked up from his monitor and his character stopped running around on LoM. He had been feeling antsy lately and almost felt like he was about to be attacked. He knew for sure though that he was alone right now and that he was not in any danger. He brushed off the strange feeling again and continued his planning for his new series.
Brian logged on DvZ again. He had recently started playing it a lot more than most other people thought healthy. He joined the Machine lobby and noticed a familiar username. He quickly opened chat and began a conversation.
"Roamin: Hey deadbones whatcha doin here again?"
"Wasted Time: Thought I would play some DvZ again thanks to the updates. Hold on I'll skype you."
Roamin hit answer on the incoming call and saw the familiar face of his fellow buffalo wizard Shane more commonly known as Deadbones.
"Have you done any of the new updates yet? The doom clock gets pretty crazy later in the game."
"Yea I know Rob did a really great job this time with the updates."
"I know my hero finally got a pretty awesome update. I got my hammer finally."
The two continued to chat as the game started up and a started a new one together later. Several hours down the line Robert Moran, sometimes simply called the Old Man, joined in as well. They all agreed that something made this game a lot more addicting recently.
David had never felt more unfullfilled. He was trying to find a new job but his did not have a degree for the kind he wanted. He wanted to be an engineer. To make those buildings in Minecraft real. He knew he needed a degree to do anything of the sort. He paced around feverishly unsure of what he wanted to do.
Rose knew something was off. She had been wandering around tekkitopia and was startled when she saw the news. Sips, ceo of Sipsco, was dead. Rose's jaw dropped at the idea of such a crazy thing happening and was almost too distracted by what looked to be a terrorist attack on the headquarters of the world's number one dirt selling company. Sure every now and again there was a hiccup in the clone network and somebody died due to faulty cloning. But somebody as rich as Sips had to be would surely be able to afford having a huge number of backups that should have saved him.
She was disrupted from her revery by a nudging on her foot. She glanced down at her dog annoyedly and bent down to its level. "Hey can't you see I am thinking here?" She playfully shook its head back and forth. She decided to try and ignore the crazy catastrophes that had been occurring recently and go home. She had recently been able to rebuild a house in the nearby woods after an unfortunate accident with a flint and steel.
On the way to the rebuilt cabin her dog started growling and ran away from Rose towards a nearby clearing. She ran after it and saw a young kid with his back against a tree staring in terror at her barking puppy and off to the side a man rolling around on the forest floor laughing. Rose quickly ran up to her puppy and picked it up causing the the younger boy to slowly slide off the tree and caused the older man to laugh even louder. The younger boy glared at him and looked back to Rose. "Hey I'm Toby."
Alright guys I am not sure if I will update any more regularly but I have been away from story writing for a long time. I hope that maybe eventually I will finish this story. Also Is anyone willing to beta my story? I need one to not make poorly worded chapters.
