As you might have guessed, I am branching my (inability to complete a story) imagination into the Minecraft World!
Why am I writing this? Because I play Minecraft so much, and when I started reading some of the fanfiction, I decided why not and throw my hat into the ring of it.
Now, I want this story to last a long time, so no speedrunning stuff, and partly because I like to be over-prepared, meaning full enchanted Netherite armor, sword, now, etc
I hope you enjoy this story though!
I watch as my friend, Biscuithead lights the last block of TNT in my makeshift stronghold like an underground bunker, as my entire base goes up in explosions, with everything lost. I stare at the screen, the Minecraft respawn offer on-screen, unable to believe that my base, even if it's not that good in looks, is destroyed in a 2B2T style sort of grief of it.
Man, what the fuck was that for? I type to my friend.
Lol, that's for taking three of my notch apples! Biscuithead responds with.
I didn't take them jackass. Besides, I would have left something in exchange if I did! I type back in annoyance.
True, I also had excess TNT, and I decided punishment for the few times you crashed my servers was due as well. He types back.
He's still on that? Good God, most of them were accidents, or I didn't think would crash the server!
Boi, you are still upset about that, after a fucking year went by, and you know that most of them weren't intended. I type back, slightly annoyed.
So? They still happened.
God, I hate dealing with people, friends or not, sometimes.
I take note of the respawn area, the same decimated forest with holes in the ground, reminiscent of 2B2T again.
I decide to go West in the game, see if anything was touched that way. About a thousand blocks in, and I find an untouched village, which isn't too surprising, considering this server only gets like, 3 people at a time when it's active.
I decide that I should investigate the nearby village, spotting the iron golem and a blacksmith building.
Perfect. Let's see what the village has in store.
As I start to walk towards the village, I suddenly feel a sense of unease. Strange, Minecraft villages aren't that scary.
The first thing I do, kill the Golem for some Iron. Do the old cheese tactic, smack it, run and build up by three blocks, and hit it enough times until it falls. You know the drill if you have played Minecraft enough, or watch a few Minecraft players speedrun it.
As soon as the Golem dies, I get that same feeling of unease, except it's worse. As if something, or someone, is watching me.
I turn around, looking around my room, seeing if someone is watching me, if I somehow am in the SCP universe, or if I just am feeling paranoid for some reason.
Nothing. Just my room, with two Zelda posters, a Heros of Olympus poster, my unmade bed with blankets piled up, a Foxy plush, and my baggie of crushed water bottles in their spots I left them in.
I just shrug and get back to playing the game. I mean, this isn't some Fanfiction where some higher power decides to fuck with me because it feels like it, isn't going to happen.
I hope.
I go back to Minecraft, and make a beeline to the Blacksmith, to steal from him. One-off thing is that all the villagers seem to be just, looking at me. Oh God, I hope this isn't some shitty creepypasta where I bleed 'hyper-realistic blood' or some cliche shit.
I swear though, this is creepy as the villagers follow me to the blacksmith's building, where the Blacksmith villager is standing at the door, with a look of anger.
What the fuck. Since when did villagers express their emotions through facial expressions, and not particle effects?
As much as I want to figure it out, I decide it's not worth it, and go into the blacksmith's building, and find his chest.
Opening the chest, I find three diamonds, four obsidian, two emeralds, and three iron ingots.
I feel that same unease feeling, except nearly overwhelming.
I quickly exit the blacksmith, only to see the villagers outside, looking at me with rage, as red, black, and purple particle effects are coming off of them.
"Thief! Murder! Destroyer! Slayer of our Protectors!"
Ganon, what the fuck is going on?
You are seeing this shit as well?
Well, it's hard not to see the fact that villagers are appearing like Endermen.
Wait, what the fuck is that?
Wut?
OH SWEET KENTUCKY FRIED CHICKEN! HELP!
As soon as that message appeared, a purple and black vortex-like formation appears in from of my monitor, surprising me enough to forcefully suck me into it.
I admit that I was screaming quite loudly, scared out of my wits, as I fell down what seemed like an endless vortex of purple and black tube.
Thank God I am not prone to seizures and epileptic. Though the flashing, shifting, and the speed I am falling doesn't help at all, and I do get a headache from the vortex walls.
I notice as well, that my friend, Biscuit, is falling with me as well, below me. He was sucked into a vortex as well.
For what seems like an eternity, I fall, when I notice a light at the bottom of the vortex, which tells me this fall is almost over.
Just as I notice that one side of the vortex suddenly gains a crack, then another, before the third crack shatters the wall, and the Ender Dragon flies through, grabbing my friend, and eating him in one bite, before leaving.
The fuck. What the fuck. Did, did my friend just die? I got a strange feeling that he isn't going to respawn from that, and had that happen to me, I wouldn't respawn either.
Fuck. Man, it sucks that I just saw my friend, even if it was just an internet friend, die right in front of me. I mean, what can I, or could I, have done? Hell, I only really talked to him through Discord and knew a few things about him, but that's it.
Maybe my lack of a reaction to his death is just because I didn't know him all that well. That or I just can't comprehend the way he died. I really don't know.
But if his death is permanent like I think it will be, well then fuck me sideways. I do not have the luxury of respawning.
I gulp quietly, worried about what is to come, before I feel something hit the back of my head hard, knocking me out almost instantly.
A figure, shrouded in black, looks on at the falling person, with slight interest.
Heh Heh Heh, I see I have a new toy now. It's not too common to get a new toy, sent to my side of reality. I might as well have some fun with this one. Now let's see, what does he fear... Well, that's... an odd fear. Not one I normally see, but in the end, I might as well use it to my advantage. Now, the world you will enter is not the Minecraft you know. It's a Minecraft that is going to be my playground, to make you deal with what you fear the most. Should you survive, and overcome your fear... Well, I will grant you one wish, so long as it isn't to leave this world. Now, let the game begin.
Slowly, my eyes open, to sunlight hitting my face, blinding me and making my headache known to me.
"ACH! That's fantastic." I mutter to myself, daring not to be loud, partly because of the pounding headache I have, and because I don't know if I am being watched.
I slowly get up, wincing from the head pain. I then notice it. The sun, the clouds, everything but me, is all cubes.
"What the fuck... Is this the world of Minecraft? Also, how did I get a book?" I noticed a book in my hand, signed by... I can't read the name sadly, it's like the text you see at points when you beat the Ender Dragon.
I sigh, wanting to get to safety first before I read the book. If this is Minecraft, and the extremely high possibility that I can't respawn, well I better start on the basics.
First, chop a tree.
The first thing I make note of is the fact that I am in a plains biome, next to a forest. That's honestly a perfect spawn for me.
Making my way to a tree, I notice that I still look the same as I did before the vortex thing, no cubes for me. Well, at least I know that I won't have to relearn how to do anything, as a damn cube.
It takes a few minutes to reach the nearest tree, telling me one major thing, just because I am in Minecraft, or a world like it, it doesn't mean it follows the same rules.
I think.
Punching the first log, an Oak Log, I see cracks form on it, and I continue punching it until I get a single oak log. I then remove the entire tree, taking about half an hour to remove, gathering apples and sticks for food, and tool-making materials.
I quickly check the sun's position, noticing it's most likely noon, if not past noon, and I know that building a house is foolish for me.
All I have is wood, a wooden pickaxe, a wooden shovel, and I want to at least figure out if the underground is different as well. So, I begin digging down, past dirt, and stopping after I am four stone blocks into the ground.
Immediately, I notice it takes a long time to mine stone. I want to say five minutes pass before I get my first piece of cobblestone. I decide to get two more, so I can make a stone pick, to hopefully mine stone faster.
Which it does, slightly at least. I also hit a coal and Iron vein, the looks of them telling me that this is a world on, if not past the Cliffs and Caves update, which is both helpful, and terrifying.
By the end of the coal vein, I got about twelve pieces of coal, and six cobblestone, while the iron gave me three raw ore, and five more cobblestone, enough to make a furnace, and to smelt the iron for an iron pick.
As soon as I finish making the furnace, I throw the iron and coal into it, to smelt the iron, and I make some ladders, to make it easier to get up and down from my underground base.
Using my remaining wood planks, which I count six, I make an oak trapdoor, to leave at the entrance to help me see what time it is and to find where my temporary home is.
As soon as I place the ladders and trapdoor, I decide while I got a few hours left in the day, to gather sand, to smelt glass so I can make glass bottles to store water in, and hopefully purify it by boiling it in the furnace.
After gathering a stack of sand, and grabbing some wood, then smelting the sand, I make some glass bottles, and fill six of them with water, and store the rest of the glass away in a chest, for later use.
As soon as I finish that, I start to hear the tell-tale signs of Zombies and Skeletons out and about on the surface, telling me it's nighttime, and I should sleep.
As much as it will pain me, I am going to have to sleep on the stone floor, as I didn't get any wool. At least I got a little wheat farm started, to eventually make bread.
I lay down on the cold stone floor, shivering slightly, before slowly falling asleep to the intermittent Zombie and Skeleton noises from the surface.
My Goal for tomorrow: Get wool for a bed. I knew sleeping on stone wouldn't feel good, but damn.
I slowly open my eyes, wincing at the pain in my back, yeah definitely getting a bed first thing.
I climb up my ladder, to see it's daytime, looks like just slightly past dawn. Perfect. The hostile mobs, minus Creepers, Spiders, and Endermen should be gone.
For now. The remaining three, minus the Creeper, isn't hostile unless I attack or stare at, so I should be fine there.
As soon as I close the trapdoor, and place four torches around the entrance to help me find it, I begin to leave, but I can't help but feel like something, or someone is watching me. I make sure to keep my stone sword out, in case if I have to deal with hostile mobs.
If I find Pillagers I am fucked beyond fucked in my current state.
Huh, he left. Maybe I can use his little home to sleep for now.
It's been a while since I could sleep safely, and it is better than continuing to risk death by Zombie and Skeleton arrows.
I open his trapdoor, shivering from the cold, and lack of roof I have had for the past week. Only my jacket and shirt had been able to keep me warm, as a skirt doesn't help much.
I find his furnace, running still, and curl up next to it, trying to warm up before I fall asleep.
Walking for five minutes, and three sheep dead, I know have enough wool to make a bed. I decide to also gather more wood, and see if there's a good cave I can explore a bit of, for coal, Copper, and Iron.
Mainly Coal and Iron. But while I find half a stack of coal, I only found six raw iron. Well, that's not much, but it does tell me that Coal is more numerous than Iron.
I think I am going to have to go deeper underground to find iron, and by extension, Diamonds.
It takes until dusk to reach my base, and I climb down my ladder, making sure to close the trapdoor when I notice something.
I am not alone. At my furnace, which is now cold and off, I see a figure curled up in front of it.
I step closer, to see it's a girl.
Oh. Oh no. Of fucking course, it's the Mobtalker Creeper. Oh God damn it.
Great. I make a bed, before placing it and picking up the sleeping girl, and putting her in the bed.
Fantastic. Now I am currently am in a base with a woman, who could pass off for the creeper girl from Mob Talker, just with large breasts, and she looks to be about my age.
Well, looks like I am sleeping on the stone floor again.
Well, I hope it was decent! Maybe I will continue this one, I don't know for sure though.
Will I have mods in it?
Maybe, if they either fit the Minecraft esthetic, or if I have experience with the mod, and isn't something like IC2, which is machines. Mods like Tinkers Construct, Twilight Forest, Aether, etc can be introduced in the story. Same with mods like Spartans weapons, but no guns as that would be idiotic, and a bit OP. Finally, the generic 1 mob having a Mob Talker form, or something custom is going to be in here, as Anime Waifus.
Why?
Because of boredom. Though, if you came here expecting a Harem with five chapters of making, no. I want to do it slowly, and have it feel real, with actual thought put into it. Not 'Oh you gave me a house? Here, you can slide your dick in my vagina!' shit, as it's both easy, unrealistic to an extent, and retarded.
Don't get me wrong, it doesn't make a story bad, it's just slightly irritating to see within 99% of stories involving harems. Hell, harem stories I like, do that. I guess it's a pet peeve or a cliche I came to dislike, hard to say. Regardless, I want this to have actual character growth, falling in love, and not some generic harem anime where the dude somehow gets 500 women by simply existing.
Forgive the rant/explanation, but I just wanted to get that off my chest, before I started the story.
This story will be in the current version of Minecraft, and when the Wilds update comes out, I want to make sure I add it in a way that fits.
Biscuithead is based on a friend I play with. Have a great day, Merry Christmas, and Happy New Year, should I not make a chapter on another story in that time!
