Chapter 3
Deeper and Deeper
"Ouch!" I said as I landed on the hard cave floor. "Hey! There's some gold over there! But that creeper is standing in the way, and I don't want to get to close or it will blow me up."I slowly walked over to it with my sword in hand ready to strike at any moment. I then seized the right moment and leaped into the air and slashed my sword from above while splitting its head in half. I then put my sword away and grasped my pickaxe and started mining the gold ore until there was no more. As I was walking back I put a few torches around the cave that I was and saw another opening and started wandering down into it. I felt a cold chill go down my back, but I kept on going. I finally found some lapis lazuli on the side of the cave walls and started mining it. It then fell out in to 7 peices and i collected them, "I wonder what this can be used for?" I said to myself. "There a lot of wonders in this world." 'SCREECH!' "Wo! What was that!?" I said. i poked my head around the corner and saw a huge, black, hairy spider. I then hid back around the corner and drew my sword."AHH!" I said as i jumped around the corner and slashed it, sending it falling in down a deep hole in the cave. "Whew... that was a close one!" I then heard it again and quickly turned around, "WHAT!" i said as I saw the spider come back up from where it had fallen. It then lunged itself at me and bit me. The bite was so painful, it took 1 and a half hearts from me. I then slashed it again and stabed it though were i thought the heart was. It then layed there as it slowly died. I stood there until i knew it had died just to be sure it wasn't immortal or something. I turned around and saw that the hole led to more lava and jumped down. I looked around and peered closely and saw something gleem. "What is that?" I said with wonder.
