Thanks for the reviews Fl- I mean girl I have never met. I'll edit the other chapters. Oh, and "*downs potion of swiftness, skips off at hyperspeed*" Didn't I make you that potion? XD
Next chapter! I've nearly done the intros, and I've planned the story well, including a twist that even startled my sister (who barely plays minecraft!).
I got a story picture! I worked hard on it (stupid un-cooperative fire), so I hope you like it!
[CLAIMER] I own minecraft, and the four realms (riiiiight, like anyone would believe I'm Notch. Seriously people, I don't own minecraft)
This time, I'm doing the POV of the main character (ugh, i need an official name for the 4 girls) of this chapter, Eria.
It was almost noon by the time the caravan came into sight. Eria's elbows ached from holding her chest above the ground, her neck hurt under the tangle of vines and leaves that covered her and the Ender soldiers.
Eria felt the caravan first, the thundering horses and heavy carriages sent vibrations through the earth, straight into her palms which were pressed firmly onto the ground. The soldier to her right elbowed her roughly in the ribs, and she nodded, stifling a cry of pain. She closed her eyes, and focused. The ground seemed alive under her, she could sense where it was, what it contained, every element and writhing insect that lay between the sky and void. She sent vibrations to the earth on the side of the road, loosening the ground. The ambush grew silent once more, waiting for the time the horses would step into her range, and she would send the earth rocketing up, creating a barrier whilst the Enderians would come from either end, to kill and loot the caravan. Eria tried not to think about what she was doing. If she let her feelings get in the way her power would fail, and her back was sore enough already without the whipping she would get if they failed this mission.
Another nudge, and Eria let her will pour into the earth, causing two blocks of earth on either side of the road to fly up. Horses neighed in fear, and the wary yelling of men could be heard as the travelers stopped dead. Then the vines were thrown off Eria, and she followed the soldiers to the road, happy to be able to stretch her neck.
Not so pleased to see what was before her.
Bodies littered the road, each one garbed in green and brown, the normal clothes of Overworlder peasants. Horses were being pulled aside by soldiers, to be used as steeds for the Ender army. Everything precious was grabbed and stored. Carriage doors were torn open and Overworlders dragged out. If they were young, they could be sold into slavery. The killing of the young was seen as the cruelest action one could take. Eria could not see a single captive. She guessed there were no children, 'till she saw a girl her age be dragged screaming from the head carriage. She kicked and fought against the Enderian, but he was too strong. She grew silent, and her eyes met Eria, accusing the Mage.
She'll be taken as a captive, Eria sternly told herself. She'll be safe.
But her thoughts could not change the fact that the soldier drew his sword and slashed it across her throat...
Eria spun around and ran. Yells rang in her ears, but she didn't care. None could catch her, and if they tried she would knock the earth from below them. She was getting away from this madness.
Not the best chapter, but again, criticism is welcome. I've no problem going over and editing my chapters if you so wish.
Also accepting character questions. You can ask anyone anything, dead or alive. You can even ask the arrow Zia shot on chapter one something.
