Chapter 2: In the town

Location: Edge of the plains

Roy's POV

I walked towards to the girl in the green hoodie and got a better view of her but still couldn't see her face, from the looks of it she seemed to be around my age. Her hood had a creeper face on it and I wondered if I can find some better clothes (I really hate these clothes). I got close enough to her to ask for if she can help me. I was about 5 feet from her and still with the hoodie covering her face.

"Hey my name is Roy, I just woke up over there (pointing towards where I woke up) and I was wondering where I am?" I asked her.

"Your new here….right?" she said in almost a whisper

"What do you mean by new here?" I replied with a confused look.

"It would be better if you follow me and I will tell you where you are?" she said a little louder than before.

"I didn't catch your name?" I said eager to know who she is.

Suddenly I felt the wind blowing behind me and blowing her hoodie down revealing a blushing girl with a pale skin, light orange hair, and light orange eyes. She turned all red with a terrified face and eagerly trying to put her hoodie back up before she can tell me her name.

"Ummmm do you have anthropophobia (fear of other people)? I said concerned for her.

"I...ummmm….ahhhhh" she said nervously before taking off down the forest, leaving me behind with many questions unanswered.

I ran chasing after her down the forest but keeping a distance from so she would think she lost me so she would stop eventually.

I followed her to the end of the forest and saw a big town filled with other people and impressive wooden houses along with a couple of nooby dirt houses that just destroyed how epic this town was. I saw people working the fields, selling goods in their little wooden booth, and people walking around with iron chest plates and diamonds, assuming they are the towns guards.

I walked down a cobble stone path into the town passing by people who were selling goods like diamonds, armor, weapons, and tools in the wooden booths. Then a man wearing a black apron with black skin, bold head, and black eyes in a booth selling weapons to my right was calling towards me.

"Hey guy in the noob clothing" he said pointing at me.

"Me?" I replied with a confused look.

"Yes you, now come over here." He said like he hates everyone

I walked over to him to see what he had to say.

"Want to sell your weapons to me, I will pay you handsomely." He asked with a fake smile

"Sorry but I don't have any weapons." I replied wondering what made him think I have a weapon.

"Oh yea, you noobs wouldn't know you have a weapon, listen to my simply instruction. Imagine your inventory in your head." He said in a bit nicer voice.

I imagined my inventory in my head then suddenly a white small inventory hologram was floating in front of me. In the top left slot of my inventory was a chest labeled as gift.

"We all start with these gifts when we first come here. It determines what your best weapon is and you can summon your weapon almost instantly if you imagine it in your hand." He said

"What…well that made this world more interesting." I said amazed of what this single chest represents.

I opened the chest and surprised to see not one but 2 weapons and other things. In the chest was a stone sword, small mini versions of a TNT block, and 1 arrow. Wondering what the arrow was for, until I saw a gun looking thing next to the arrow. There was a descriptions hovering below it. "Arrow gun, shoots arrows weaker than a normal one but soars through the air at high speeds." The man in the apron had a surprised look on his face with his jaw down.

"I won't be selling these weapons, but thanks for telling me how to open my inventory and summon my weapon." I said to him with a smile on my face and excited to use these weapons

I threw my weapons into my inventory and closed it and left down the cobble stone path. "What was I gonna do again?" I said to myself trying to remember what I was forgetting?

As I walked down the path the day was almost over as the sun was about a hour from setting. I better find some place to stay for the night I thought to myself. I continue to roam the paths of the town in hope to find some place to stay.

Location: House in the town

Girl in the green hoodie's POV

Why do I run away? Why do I fear people? Why was didn't I at least tell him my name? I was mentally slapping myself in the head on my bed cursing my anthropophobia for making me such a coward. Why do I only get like that when I am around other people, it doesn't happen to me when I fight mobs. Why am I only confident when I am alone?

My name is Cupa, one of the few people who was a success in "Project Infusion" this project started not that long ago by my friends, it gives a person manipulation over aspects the mob that was given to them. They created it so we can defend our new home. The chances of the experiment succeeding are slim but for some reason chances are nearly doubled for females. This experiment was safe so there are no consequences for those we tested. Before all of this, before we got here into minecraft we were all normal people living our normal lives until we found ourselves here.

I decided to get some fresh air and take a walk. The sun was gonna set in about hour and mobs will start appearing but I will be fine, I manipulate the power of the creepers. I walked down to the door and opened it and suddenly I was terrified the moment I saw the newcomer, the boy with the black scruffy hair. He was standing in front of my door.

Location: In front of Cupa's house

Roy's POV

I was knocking door to door asking people if I can stay for the night but they all called me a freeloader and turned me down. "This is gonna be the last door I knock on before resort to sleeping on the someone's roof." I said to myself and screaming "help the homeless" in the inside.

Right before I was gonna knock on the door, it opened and came to my surprise, it was the girl in the green hoodie with that same look she gave me before she ran off leaving me in the forest. She looked like she was gonna close the door when she came back to her senses after being frozen by fear.

"Wait…." I said desperately

"Wa….wa….wa…why you at my door?" she said stuttering in a terrified whisper.

"I need a place to stay, I don't have any place to go other for the night." I asked her desperately

She was blushing even more from the question and thought for a full 3 minute but she gave me the most unexpected answer.

"You…..may…..stay." she mumbled.

I will take that as a yes because a mumble is better than a whisper…..I guess as I said that in my head.

Is Cupa ok? Will Roy ever know her name? And Roy is still in those terrible clothes. Find out what happens next in chapter 3. I have a lot of down time so chapters will be coming out fast and I took a look at the first chapter and it seemed too short. In the reviews tell me if I should keep the chapters this length or longer.
