Danny had explained to Laura that when you die in Minecraft the things in your inventory will drop and stay in the place where you died. But Laura was playing in a server, very small server but anyway, and she was afraid that someone would find and steal her pickaxe before she'd got to it. The only problem was she had no idea where she'd died.

Laura2theLetter: Is it you Danny?

VampireSlayer: Yeah. Where are you?

Laura2theLetter: I have no idea

Laura could imagine how Danny was rolling her eyes at her.

"Don't worry Laura, I'm pretty sure I remember where we died", LaFontaine said as they also respawned back to the game. Suddenly a player appeared next to Laura and LaFontaine.

VampireSlayer: Hi guys

Danny's player's skin had really awesome warrior clothes that reminded Laura of Xena Warrior Princess.

Laura2theLetter: Oh, hi Danny. LaF says they remember where my pickaxe is so I think we're fine

VampireSlayer: Okay, LaF lead the way

They followed LaFontaine, and after some wandering around they actually managed to find the place. After checking the wolves were gone Laura ran to pick up her things, only to find someone already there holding a wooden pickaxe, and Laura was pretty sure it was hers since there were no pickaxes on the ground.

Laura2theLetter: Who the hell are you and why are you stealing my stuff!?

VampireSlayer: Calm down. That's just Kirsch.

Now that Laura looked at the player she noticed his skin was still the default skin except from his shirt that had the Zeta logo on it.

Laura2theLetter: Give them back Kirsch!

KirschTheDudescort: Don't freak nerd hottie. I don't wanna steal your crap

Kirsch threw her things back.

KirschTheDudescort: Why would I want to have a wooden pickaxe anyway?

Laura tried very hard not to get offended by that. Then she noticed it was getting darker. Apparently everyone else also noticed this.

KirschTheDudescort: I better take you to my house before the monsters come out. Figuring you won't survive the night alone.

MasterOfTheWeird: What makes you think that?

On her side, Laura noticed LaFontaine was looking slightly offended and she could imagine how hard Kirsch judging them. That judgement didn't probably contain Danny though. She seemed to be very much able to take care of herself.

KirschTheDudescort: Wooden pickaxe… Anyway, follow me if you wanna live

Really Kirsch, really, Laura thought as she followed Kirsch through the darkening forest. She didn't really want to, but felt like it was the only logical thing to do. Her hunger bar was alarmingly low and she had no idea what the monsters were Kirsch had mentioned.

On the way to Kirsch's house they passed some wolves which Laura avoided as much as she could but even though Kirsch pretty much jumped on top of one they ignored the gang completely. The journey wasn't long but when they got to the house it was already dark and Laura spotted skeletons (that she thought were holding some kind of weapons) in the edge of her screen.

Kirsch's "house" (as he had called it) was an enormous castle made of stone. It had huge wooden doors that slid away when Kirsch pulled a lever. The inside was also amazing. It was designed like the middle ages' castles and Laura loved it.

KirschTheDudescort: Welcome to my home

VampireSlayer: Don't you dare to take all the credit for yourself

KirschTheDudescort: Right, Danny helped me built it

Laura2theLetter: This is amazing! I… don't have words

Laura2theLetter: Do you have food by the way?

MasterOfTheWeird: Oh, sorry Laura I forgot

KirschTheDudescort: You really are noobs

Danny threw her carrots and beefs.

VampireSlayer: That should be enough for a while

Laura2theLetter: Thanks

Laura ate a few beefs and saw her health coming back. Laura was curious about what the castle had in it. It was so big, and from the main hall there were several doorways to other parts of the castle. Every inch of walls in the main hall were filled with paintings of minecrafty things and Laura really liked them.

Laura2theLetter: I'm going to explore your house while we're in here

VampireSlayer: I'm coming with you. Wouldn't recommend wandering around alone in here

Laura2theLetter: Why not?

Laura2theLetter: Not that I wouldn't want you to come with me…

VampireSlayer: You'd surely get lost; we designed the castle like that. And there are some rooms you reeaally shouldn't go into.

Laura2theLetter: Okay, shall we go?

Right after Laura had typed that the door opened and a player walked in. Her skin had orange hair and something that looked like a sweater and she had a light blue sword in her hand.

KirschTheDudescort: How'd you get in? That door's not supposed to open for anyone but me and Danny.

Perrdon: You gave me the admission a few days ago. Remember?

"Is that Perry?" Laura asked LaFontaine. She hadn't thought Perry would be the kind of person who played Minecraft.

"Yeah. She secretly loves Minecraft but won't admit it. She actually got me into it", LaFontaine answered. They seemed to be very proud of Perry doing something considered somewhat abnormal.

KirschTheDudescort: Umm…..

Perrdon: Of course you don't

VampireSlayer: Laura, you coming?

Laura2theLetter: Oh, yeah lead the way

Perrdon: Hi Laura, you're playing Minecraft too?

Laura2theLetter: LaF taught me. I'm going to go around the castle now. See you later

Perrdon: Okay, don't get lost

Laura followed Danny to a long tunnel that had torches in the walls and after a while it started to go downward.

Laura2theLetter: Where are we going?

VampireSlayer: The castle continues underground so we're starting the tour from the very bottom. There might be monsters so…

Danny threw her a light blue sword, the same that Perry had had. It turned out to be a diamond sword. Apparently Danny had another one of them as she had taken one to her hand too.

Laura2theLetter: How did you have time to make this place? It's stunning

VampireSlayer: We didn't actually have that much time. Somehow we just found ourselves building it at 3 am every night till it was finished

There were some more stairs going down before they had reached the lowest point. They were in a room lit by torches. In the opposite wall there was a hole that led somewhere dark. Laura walked closer to the hole and noticed that after the hole there was no floor.

Laura2theLetter: What's down there?

VampireSlayer: That's a way to our caves. Don't go too near to the edge or you might fall

Suddenly Laura heard hissing in the cave.

VampireSlayer: Get back here!

Before she could move the wall exploded next to her and sent her flying a few blocks back. Fortunately she had still a little bit left in her health bar.

Laura2theLetter: WHAT WAS THAT!

VampireSlayer: You got too close to a creeper and it exploded. Thank god you didn't die

Then she heard some kind of slurping noise. First she thought it was a creeper again but then a massive spider climber to the room from the cave.
