Minecraft VR Chapter 21: Acceleration

Kira and I left the underground base, and set out for the same path we had used previously to get to Coach's old House, he said he was going to meet up with us there once he got online to work on our counter attack plan on Alex and his Crew. The entire area was utterly decimated, and Coach stood at the Center. He said he wanted to guarantee he had nowhere left to go in this world, so he could focus on helping us go all the way to the last boss. First though, we needed a way to stop the players that were against us.

Coach asked if we had anywhere nearby he could stay at for a while, he wasn't anyone from the above ground Center, so we figured it Couldn't be that bad of an Idea. Plus, we did need a fourth ember to fill up the Empty space after Alex left the group. Coach was given pretty much the exact same crap as the rest of us, and he brought his own Recipe parts as well, so our lack wasn't really a problem. Coach was wearing armor that was a lot heavier than the rest of ours, and was clearly using Diamond to weigh it down, functioning to reduce knockback, as well as the increased Armor it gave. His Back Item was a shield, but he couldn't take it off, which was a bit annoying. He showed us the set name, and I was surprised to see it had the sae name as Kira's set. So we now had rule number seven figured out 7. The armor that Full VR gives using the ABS system changes shape depending on how you train in real life.

We set off first to test the Combat abilities of our changed sets. When I turned the Corner of a mine zone, a Zombie room appeared. I aimed the blade at one instinctively, and a wolf rocketed from my house straight into it, instantly destroying it. Then I Jumped in, and spun the blade around my body, knocking the horde back into the walls, as well as the sharpness bonus damage. Kira slashed through each zombie, a faint flame igniting the wounds that were opened, preventing them from closing properly. Hers gained the sharpness enchantment as well with the change. Coach went in with a standard looking blade, except for the usual non pixelated look all recipe parts share. His blade was literally cutting everything in half; I swear he had a level six sharpness value or something like that.

After that, we all went back to the base to eat. Kira said that with this, we should be able to survive above ground now, but we should keep our underground base ready in case we decided it was too dangerous an idea. I knew why she said it of course; she still was having problems with underground life. I was kind of feeling sorry for her having to do this all because of Alex, so I said we could try it, but the second we are in danger, we are going to return to the base. She thanked me as we left, but I was a bit busy with my supplies, so I basically mumbled an answer, which she didn't seem all that happy about.

When we emerged though, trouble was already around, and it was in the form of a bunch of Alex's soldiers. They must have heard about the ABS system too, because they all had wing like parts, with varying degrees of success. Liam came up behind us. "jeez, we finally get out of there and now this, today sure isn't my favorite". His armor was changed as well. The grey portions on it had changed to green, and a lot of the vine designs were a lot more obvious now. The armor incorporated a sword sheath as well, which held a huge sword that he would have to use two hands to hold.

He looked at coach. "Hey old man, guess you're still around then."

Coach just pointed at the Soldiers "one thing at a time kid, I hope you know how to use that weapon."

The soldiers advanced, a lot of them shooting arrows at me, like I had a shoot me sign or something attached. The arrows were going really slowly though, so I had more than enough time to dodge all of them. Kira wasn't letting the ground soldiers get close, and was using the armors speed to move behind them, and usually scoring a couple of hits as she moved. Liam was taking on the fliers with Coach, Liam would take the enemies as they were far away, and Coach cleared up the few that survived. Liam was moving a lot faster than the guys he was fighting, pretty much barely aiming, and still getting them in the head every time, then following up with an arrow to each wing that usually caused fire damage to demolish them.

After that, we returned to the ruined place we had once called home. Kira said she was taking over the old Kitchen building as her house, nobody questioned her choice, we just said we needed the front area to be accessible for us to use, she agreed to that rather easily. Liam said he was going to rebuild the Hotel, Coach said he would deal with whatever was left. I took the remains of my building. I had kept a lot of supplies hidden here even Alex didn't know about. We quickly patched up the area we had burned, but ended up using a lot of trees in the process.

Then morning came, and with it, the treat Alex posed to us. Liam finally came up with a way to negate the flames, but even so, the non-ending bit meant we would have to finish any fight quickly and put out the blaze. The rest of the day was spent fighting off soldiers. I was getting annoyed though, the endless supply of these things was causing problems, and I wasn't sure anymore how many people had lost all VR services because of us. Liam suggested once that when we write up our reports, we put in several choice words about where our feet would go if we saw him in reality, that sounded pretty good, and I told Liam so. Kira was trying to find chickens, Coach thought it was a bad idea, but I told him she needed this right now. I still remembered when we first met; she had been tending her farm, so I thought maybe this was a kind of stress relief for her.

She returned around the time we needed to log off to head to the Gym, so Coach, Kira and I all logged off around the same time. The guys who tried to beat her up were around this time too, and had the brilliant idea of trying to take me down. I wasn't looking for a fight today though, I knew by now that the Fight I was going to get into with Alex would be draining enough. Target number one moved in slowly, but he seemed to be running. Coach stood there watching, like this was some really interesting movie he wanted to watch. I bowed down, allowing his back to catch on mine, and straightened up, causing him to lose his balance. I pushed the palm of my hand right where his lungs were, winding him, and forcing him into the ground. Number two tried to kick me from behind. I caught his foot and used it to flip him on his back. The third one let out a small cry before he crumpled, behind him was Kira. When the guys from the hospital showed up, the coach told them the same guys were trying to do something even crazier than the last time, and were going to be banned from the place for the safety of everyone.

That Saturday was the time. At real time 2:00 PM, I logged in to VR. When I got there, Liam, Kira, and Coach were already assembled. I opened the Wolf cage, with the ability I had now, It didn't matter where they went, They would come at my call. Kira set her knight set, and it shined brighter than ever. Liam had his Holy disaster Armor on, and was carrying his bow, but had one hand on his bow. Coach had his version of Kira's set on as well, nicknamed the Heavy Knight Gear. We set off south, the direction of the Tower Alex called his home now.

-End of Chapter 21-

Well, this is the version of the Chapter I made for if nobody did the contest, there will be more branching sections eventually.
