For the next few days, the girls worked on adding levels to the tiny hut, and now it had 4 of them, plus they expanded it so that even the first floor had enough space for all of them! In the process, the girls got to know each other better and they got used to this new blocky world.
"We're finally done!" Foxy jumped off the balcony and landed in a pool of water they set up at the bottom.
"Yup!" Unicorn looked at the house triumphantly.
"So… Why do we need so much space again?" Karina asked.
"On the first floor we have our chests," Unicorn pointed at the grand room lined with rows and rows of chests, each labeled specifically for who and what.
"Then on the second floor we have our beds," Foxy pointed at the floor lined with eight beds.
"Then on the third floor we have our giant skygarden that you made!" Foxy and Unicorn said simultaneously.
"Hold on." Karina halted them. "One, you two are WAAAAY too similar." She looked at the almost identical girls, and the only difference was their hair colour and of course, Foxy's fox ears. "Like, even your skin tone and eye colours are the same!"
"Oh yeah." They looked at each other.
"Also, why do you need like… One two three four five six seven eight beds if there's only three of us?" Karina rolled her eyes.
"Because…" Foxy began. "I KNOW that there are going to be other players coming along! I just know it!"
"Okay.. Suit yourself… But I think it's just a waste of wool." Karina stuck her tongue out teasingly while Foxy did the same.
"Hey, lets go mining!" Unicorn suggested. "I've never tried it before, and there's a cave right there!" She pointed to a dark cavern in the distance.
"Don't you think we should go to bed first?" Foxy pointed at the sunset. "I'll get some pickaxes and swords set up, then we'll sleep till morning. Foxy quickly crafted three iron pickaxes and three golden swords, then they went to bed.
"Food?"
"Check."
"Pickaxes?"
"Check!"
"Swords?"
"Can I have a bow?" Unicorn added. Sighing Foxy hesitantly crafted a brand new bow for Unicorn, along with a stack of arrows. At last, the three new friends ran to the entrance of the cave, and peered inside to check for mobs. Each of them took a stack of torches with them, so Unicorn put down the first torch as they walked inside, gathering coal and iron while placing more torches in dark areas. Unicorn and Karina were mining up some iron while Foxy heard a familiar hiss…
"Guys…?" Foxy carefully warned.
"What?" Unicorn and Karina turned around to see a group of creepers, skeletons and zombies all headed towards them!
"So…" Unicorn ducked under an arrow.
"What do we do now?" Karina got further away from the mobs.
"I dunno, fight, run, whatever you guys feel like doing." Foxy shrugged like it was nothing. A distant muttering came from the side where the mobs were coming from, making her perk up her little fox ears like a radar, and Unicorn already knew what the girl was thinking.
"You can't be serious…" Karina said with an uneasy tone.
"Well, it's better than nothing." Unicorn took out her bow. Running towards the mobs all at once, they slashed, or in Unicorn's case, shot what they thought were all the mobs, but three new creatures approached them.
"What are those things?" Foxy looked up at the tall black figures, her ears flattening.
"They look… Tall…?" Karina clenched her sword.
"Um… Hi there mister scary guy… Want some… Porkchop?" Unicorn offered the pale meat. "It's really good! Hehe… Run!"
They ran deeper into the cave, but the strange beings… Teleported? In a poof of purple smoke, they appeared once again in front of the girls.
"AHHH!" They all yelled simultaneously. They continued running, going straight around the tall creatures. They finally reached an end to the cave, and they were getting stared down by the tall black figures, with thin arms and legs and purple eyes that peered into your soul. They closed their eyes, waiting for the worst before they heard the sound of… Mining? They all turned around to see a girl with ombre hair going from dark brown to blonde and blue eyes and slightly tanned skin while she was wearing a wreath of flowers around her head, not to mention a cream coloured top that didn't even cover her shoulders, really short shorts and a pair of white and black boots.
"Who are-" She trailed off when she saw the black beings tilt their heads at her, and she instantly changed from a curious stance to immediate panic. "Come inside, quick!" She went deeper into the two block tunnel that she made, and the other girls followed her. The last to go in was Karina, and she blocked the tunnel with cobblestone.
"Wait.. Who are you?" Unicorn glanced at the new player.
"I'm 19choica2." The ombre-haired girl introduced herself. The others sat there, open mouthed, not knowing what to say about her strange name.
"How about we give you a nickname?" Karina suggested while the others agreed. "It's sorta hard to call you by your name. By the way, I'm Karina."
"I'm Unicorn."
"I'm Foxy."
"Nice to meet you guys!" The newfound player said in a friendly tone, making Foxy's ears perk up.
"I think I heard your voice before! Earlier on, we had just started mining and I heard a person mumbling!" Foxy grinned.
"But I didn't hear anything." Unicorn looked at the Fox girl.
"Me neither." Karina didn't recall ever hearing a voice like that.
"Fox ears, remember?" Foxy grinned even wider, pointing at her ears.
"Wait… Those are real?" The new girl went up to Foxy and pulled her ear, making her flinch.
"Ow!" Foxy complained.
"Okay, so we know never to touch those super-sensitive ears." Unicorn muffled a laugh as Foxy rubbed her sore ear.
"Wait… Can't those tall guys just teleport back in here?" Karina thought out loud making Unicorn and Foxy shiver in the thought of the terrifying creatures.
"Not a chance! I've been underground for ages, and I've been here long enough to know that if you're in a area only tall enough for you, they're too tall to get in!" 19choica2 smiled.
"Okay.. So.. Nickname… Nickname…" Unicorn thought. "How about croissant?"
"What? Why a croissant?" Foxy questioned.
"Because the first letter in her name is C, and croissant starts with a C! Plus, it's almost the colour of her hair right… Here!" Unicorn pointed at a spot in 'Croissant's' ombre where the colours matched the French bread's.
"Okay then, Croissant it is!" The new girl felt her belly rumble. "Hey, got any food?" The other girls offered their food, consisting of apples, pork chops and cooked salmon. In no time, Croissant ate almost all their food!
"Plus, she likes food." Unicorn added to her explanation while the others grinned.
