The space was so bare. It kind of enjoyed that though. The peaceful silence. The desolate, endless darkness.
But sometimes it wondered what else there was. Surely it couldn't just be this nothingness? Were they the only one? That would be depressing.
It had begun to believe it was just them and this space.
Until one moment in time, it had headed in one direction for a change of pace. For what could of been instantly or forever, it traveled.
Then it spotted something, and rushed over. A layer of some kind of material, something other then this emptiness, that had specks of black and gray on it. It reached forward, and felt something for the first time. It was so foreign, so different from the space that was home, that it recoiled and backed away.
Did it really want this? The emptiness was all that it had known. Sure, it had gone adventuring, but hadn't expected to find anything. And who knew what this strange thing was, the thing that could end everything or start something that wouldn't be stoppable-
A crack appeared in the material above it, and a snapping noise occurred ,so different from the usual silence that it flinched.
Change was coming, no matter if it liked it or not...
Blizzard's POV
Rex and Blizzard caught up to Cloudy, and the rest of the trip was in awkward silence. The group left the town borders and clambered over the tallest hill. Blizzard turned around to scan the town, nestled in its little valley. It looked so peaceful from up here. If he didn't know there was danger looming behind the hill opposite of them, life would be great.
"It's going to be dark soon." Cloudy muttered. Blizzard turned around and saw that sure enough, the sun was hanging low in the sky. A scarlet red color had seeped into the sky, and surrounding it was a ocean blue.
"Then lets get this over with." Rex sprinted down the hill and into the forest below, Blizzard and Cloudy accompanying her.
"Is that a new spawn?" Rex asked, pointing at a pink shape.
Cloudy sighed "That's a pig Rex."
"Is that a new spawn?"
"That's a rose bush."
"Is that a new spawn?"
"No."
"But it looks just like one."
"It's just a mob or something."
"Mobs don't have hair."
Blizzard followed Rex's gaze to where a shape lay on the ground. "That is a person!" He dashed over to where a person lay on the ground, Rex and Cloudy close behind him. He stopped right next to the person, looking for the usual backpack every new spawn started with. Blizzard spotted it and snatched it up.
"We got really lucky." Cloudy noted, gently rolling the person over with a midnight black boot. It was a girl in a long, pearl white dress. "What's in the backpack?"
Every new spawn started with a backpack that contained a paper with their name and some supplies. Blizzard opened the backpack and peered inside, almost instantly seeing a piece of paper. "Here is the name," He held the paper up and tried to read it in the sun's last dying rays. There was an odd smudge of ink, then a name. "Her name is Anna."
The girl suddenly stirred, blinking sleepily. She had unique eyes, with one being a lapis-colored blue and the other a magenta color. "What... where am I?"
"Hey! So your name is Anna, you're joining our town, and we can be friends. Nowletsgetoutofhereit'sgettingdark." Rex's voice rose until she shrieked the last part, before dashing off. She stopped when no one followed. "Are you coming?"
"Um... may I think for a little? This is confusing." Anna nearly whispered.
"Sure take all the time you ne-" Twang. With a thud, an arrow embedded itself in a oak tree right next to them. "On second thought, we need to go now." Blizzard continued, pulling out his spear. "Cloudy, take Rex and Anna and go to the town, I'll cover you."
"I'm not leaving you alone." Cloudy pulled out a iron axe and charged at the skeleton that had fired the arrow.
"Fine, but Rex and Anna, GO!" Rex needed no further instruction, and sped off in a bright orange blur, Anna in her footsteps. A creeper sneaked up behind Anna and made the all-too-familiar hissing noise, but Blizzard threw his spear at it, killing it instantly. He ran over and yanked the spear out, then spun around as a spider sprang from a tree. Blizzard stuck his spear in it, and the red glow faded from its eyes. The sound of an endermen teleporting came from behind him, and he whirled around, just to see it falling down. Blizzard bolted a second before it hit where he had been standing, and saw Cloudy's axe in the end creature's head.
Cloudy ran over to retrieve her axe. "There are so many, and they are all targeting us." Blizzard panted, thrusting his spear at a zombie who tried to take a bite out of Cloudy's arm.
The girl gave him a appreciative look, then grabbed his spear and tossed it back before taking her axe and decapitating a creeper. She then pivoted to look around. "We're surrounded." She said grimly, slashing with her axe to ward off the mobs as they crowded around. They wouldn't be able to hold them off forever.
"Any plans?" Blizzard questioned. He automatically flung his spear at a skeleton, then cursed as he realized he was empty-handed and that the spear was surrounded by a ocean of mobs.
They were doomed.
Oh no! Whatever shall our brave heroes do now? How do you write fight scenes? Is it snuck or sneaked? I don't know. But I have an amazingly horrible schedule for updating.
Raiden the OC: We need flyers, and a company, and a website, and soon we shall get the word across!
StressofWriting: Yeah I meant new players, whoops. And how the players react to the new spawns depends on their personality.
Well, see you later, bye!
