Chapter 4: The War of the Mobs
So, Erika and I went out of the house to train at just about noon. Villagers were talking, dancing, and drinking (no suprise). The village was very crowded, with village children playing Cops and Robbers, and adults talking.
''Come on.'' Erika said. ''It's this way''.
She led me out of the village. There was a field behind the village, with targets and straw dummies.
''You will train here.'' Erika lead. She got in front of me.
''Alright.'' Erika sighed. ''Sword Combat 101.''
She told me about having good offence and good defence, not great offence and poor defence or the other way around. She told me about recommended plays for offensive moves and good blocks for defensive moves.
''Now, let's test your skills.'' She announced as she raised her sword. I drew Silverlight out of my pouch.
''Ready?''
I nodded.
''Go!''
She started with a stab to the belly. I quickly sidestepped (wich was sort of a sideways slide thing), then I tried to hack her hip. But she was quick; she deflected my sword and then tried to stab my neck. I sidestepped again, then lunged with a quick stab. She sidestepped, and almost hacked off my left side when something unexpected happened. I blocked, then curled my sword. The blade was ripped out of her hands. I grabed the sword in mid-air, and made a X shape with the two blades, and pressed her neck with the blades.
''How did you do that?'' she asked in suprise.
I shrugged. ''I have no freaking idea. Round two?''
''Sure.''
We both fought really hard. Erika was showing no mercy. She sidestepped and stabbed and sliced. When the fifth round was over, we were both panting for breath.
''Good job.'' Erika panted. ''You are a fast learner.''
''Thanks!'' I replied with a sigh.
We rinsed off our faces on a nearby stream to cool us down. The sun was setting fast.
''We need to get home.'' Erika said
After we got home, Gillian was waiting for us. I thought he was going to kill us, with his battle gettup and his battle face. He was sharpening his two diamond pickaxes and his diamond sword. Instead of a T-shirt with khakis, he had full iron armour.
''How was training?'' asked Gillian, still looking at his diamond weapons of death.
''Great!'' Said Erika joyfully. ''One time, Sam deflected my sword, grabbed it in thin air, and pinned me with the two swords.
Gillian looked at us, jaw dropped, dumbfounded. ''Did you really?''
''No lies,'' I replied.
''Good Notch! Your going to be pro in no time!''
''Thanks.''
''Get ready, you two.'' Gillian warned. ''It's nightfall. Sam, this is going to be your first battle. I wish you luck.''
''Thanks.'' I mumbled.
Gillian stood up. ''Let's do thiiiiis!'' He roared. ''For Notch!' And streamed out the door. Erika and I looked at each other, smiled, and followed him.
The villagers were waiting for us. They were all silent, not drinking as usual, not dancing, not doing anything exept looking at Gillian.
''Wait.'' Gillian said as he raised his hand.
Everyone went silent.
Then, over the horizon, the monsters charged. Zombies and creepers and skeletons and all the monsters you can think of were in this army.
''For Notch!'' Everyone roared. I did too, not knowing who he really is, he just sounds inportant to everyone.
I ran with all my might. Arrows screamed as thay whizzed by my ears, swords clanging, people screaming. I got into some zombies. I slashed at them, their corpses collapsed on the ground, and poofed with smoke. I got into fight with a skeleton, I hacked his head off, and kicked him off to the side. He disspeared into smoke. A spider was roaming around, wondering what to do. I still had the skull in my hand.
''Hey, Bird Brain!'' I yelled at the spider. It looked straight at me, then got a face full of skull. It zonked out.
Three zombies were all in a row, staggering towrds me. I couldn't resist, so I slashed all of the zombies at once, all in a line, and was killed instantly. Three zombies killed by one strike.
I looked around. I saw Erika shooting Zombie Pigmen (I think that's what they are). She was shooting left and right. But there were too many for her. One zombie pigman was almost going to stab her in the back when Erika shot him in the face. One Zombie Pigman was going to hack Erika up to shreds. I can't let this happen.
I got onto a zombie's head, and jumped off, getting some good air. ''Erika!'' I yelled. She quickly turned around, and a zombie pigman was ready to strike. I cut off his head. stabbed his back, then kicked him to the side.
''Thanks, Sam. I owe you one.'' Said Erika frantically.
''No problem.'' I said as I was killing a zombie.
I was on a roll when something bad happened.
''Sam, look out!'' Said Erika.
But it was too late. A skeleton had shot an arrow at my shoulder. I howled in pain. I tried to pry it of, but the skeleton shot another arrow, hitting me in the back. As I bent over in pain, a zombie grabbed my arm and got a big mouthfull of muscle out of my arm.
''Sam!'' Said someone familiar.
I heard a hack of a pickaxe, and the zombie leaned on top of me. I pushed the zombie off, and I looked up to see who it was.
''Gillian!'' I shouted.
Gillian smiled, his armour was now bloody from monsters. His two pickaxes, one in each hand, were glowing.
''Son, you need to eat!'' Yelled Gillian over the war. ''Your wounds are really bad!''
I took a slice of beef, and gobbled it down. My wounds were healing up. I closed my eyes in delight.
''Sam! Look out!'' Called the voice of Erika. I turned around. A Zombie Pigman had it's gleaming golden sword up in the air, ready to stab my brains out. A whizz of an arrow flew across the sky, and hit the zombie dead in the forehead, and out of the other side. I looked over, and there was Erika, with her bow notched.
''Thanks a bunch!'' I yelled to her.
''Hey, it was payback for you saving me!'' We both smiled, and then suddenly looked around. The valley was getting brighter. Everyone looked at the sun. The monsters screamed, and retreated. They ran into the forest, and dissapeared from sight.
Everyone roared in achevement. Some people did a victory random dance, some people shook hands, and other people hugged.
I walked over to Erika. ''Hey, good job back there!''
''Thanks.'' Erika blushed. ''You did great to. I liked the part where you jumped off the zombie and killed a zombie pigman.''
''Yeah, that was cool.''
Then she did the most unexpected thing. She spread out her arms, and hugged me for about three seconds. I hugged her back.
We stopped hugging. ''You did good.'' Erika replied.
''So, is Sam your new boyfriend?''
Our heads zoomed to the person that was talking. It was Gillian. Awkward moment.
''Wh- No!'' Erika denied. ''He's just my friend!''
''I see...'' Gillian said, not satisfied, and walked away. We looked at each other, and smiled.
Gillian, Erika and I went back to our home. We sat down, and had some breakfast. We ate in silence.
''You did great, Gillian.'' I said as I broke the silence.
''Um, thank you.'' Said Gillian.
As we put our empty dishes in the sink, Gillian said, ''You should go to sleep, son.''
Once he said that, I had a wave of tiredness spread through my eyes. Now that Gillian mentioned going to sleep, I realized how tired I was.
I walked up the ladders, turned to the left, and got into my bed. Within a second, I was asleep.
So that's chapter 4! LOL Awkward moment!
Don't forget to post a review or a question if you have any. I hope you like my story, and see you on the next chapter! Peace out!
