Chapter 22:

Jerry Slimer the Second

Sometimes Levi really hated his life.

He hated how things never seemed to go the way that he wanted. He hated how life kept throwing all of those stupid curve balls. Elf Boy being his wife had been a bad enough surprise. But finding out that the love was legit from the two having Kaze in their past life was enough to make Levi feel as if he was going to end up insane.

However, before he could storm upstairs and lock the door to the bedroom that he shared with Steve, Gwen spoke up, "Um…" She started awkwardly. "I know that Kaze being Kane is a lot to take in…" Was it just Levi, or did Gwen look hurt as she glanced at the god? "But I had another vision." She launched into an explanation of what she saw, leaving everyone quiet after she finished.

Elf Boy tried to think, but Levi snickered when he realized that it look more as if she was constipated. She glared at Levi before speaking. "That first girl sounds really familiar to me…" She commented. Suddenly, she snapped her fingers. "I've got it! There was this mod-mods help change how the game works-that allowed mobs to turn into anime girls when you used an item on them."

"And why exactly would you do that?" Alex slowly questioned.

"Because some people aren't that good in a relationship, alright?!" Elf Boy snapped, turning a bright red. She took a deep breath. "Anyways, that's the humanized creeper."

"Cupa." Orpheus muttered. "Cupa the Creeper."

They all stared at him, and he turned the same shade of red as Elf Boy. "…I was just looking at Minecraft comics, and the comics were pretty funny, so I did a bit of research…"

Kaze, Orpheus, and Alex sat down. "What about the second boy?" The god questioned.

"He seems like an average player to me." Orpheus said. "He probably used his headphones for listening to music while playing the game."

"There's also the possibility that's his avatar." Steve pointed out. "I've seen players like him before." Levi had too. One of them had actually been in the group of the first players he remembered every laying his eyes upon.

"Well, the next guy is obviously a pirate." Levi said. "There's no doubt about it."

Elf Boy's face darkened. "And the last one would have to be none other than Skydoesminecraft." She groaned. "I hate my life. I really do."

Gwen gave her a reassuring pat on the shoulder.

"Skydoesminecraft?" Alex questioned. "What kind of name is that?"

"A username." Orpheus replied. "Skydoesminecraft is the most well known Minecraft player on Earth. He's known for his unexplainable love of gold and his equally unexplainable hatred of squids."

"He has a legion of fans." Gwen continued. "They're called Sky Army."

"So that means that two out of the four have to be players." Levi realized.

"But that cannot be right." Kaze said. He looked troubled, and Levi knew that couldn't be good. "Notch only brought Aria, Gwen, Orpheus, and Levi after he died back to Minecraftia. He only brought you back because we were in need of your help. But I have never heard of any of those four."

For as long as the slime could remember, it had been alone. Notch had created it one day like he had all other slimes. It had simply popped into existence in a marshy region of the world of Minecraftia, and that was that. It never had a mother or father- because slimes didn't have distinguishable genders.

Slimes didn't really seem to have friends either.

The days passed, as they always did. The sun made its journey across the sky without fail. Yet even that warm companion faded away, leaving the slime with the cold moon.

But the slime always had the comfort of the sky. The endless, wonderful sky. Even on cloudy days the slime wasn't alone. It could look up and stare with appreciation for the beautiful creation that blanketed the world of Minecraftia.

Though the slime had been given the gift of life, it had no goal. It was simply just there. A small part of it wished for that to magically change. For it to have a reason for living.

But Notch seemed to not care about a small slime's one true wish.

The small slime hopped through the bushes onto a dirt path and was confronted by a not particularly scary looking stick. The owner of the stick waved it around as if it was a diamond sword. "I've got a stick, and I know how to use it!" The stick's owner was a human. Not a player-the slime couldn't see the strange white text about his head.

A pair of golden eyes peered over the rim of sunglasses as he crouched down to stare at the little slime. The slime jumped for a quick second and tried to take in the potential enemy. Most humans would attack a slime. It was a mob. It was a threat. But the truth was that a small slime couldn't do any harm whatsoever. The best that it could do was hide.

"Pew, pew!" It cried out in terror. The slime hopped away from the boy, knowing that he would, in fact, use that stick on it. "Pew, pew!"

The boy dropped the stick and crouched to the ground. "It's alright, little guy. I'm not going to hurt you."

It cautiously hopped closer to him, making sure to stay a good foot away from the boy.

A smile as bright as the sun appeared on the boy's face. "I'm…er…I'm Sky." The slime jumped once again, this time in confusion. "Do you have a name?" It stared at him.

Sky laughed. "I know, you can't talk. Stupid lonely me." The slime felt something akin to pity. Was this human just like it? Both were lonely-No, that was a foolish hope. "But how about I give you a name?" The slime gave a nod.

Sky gaped at it. "You can understand me?"

Another nod.

"That's great!" He smiled the same smile as before. "Now for a name…How does Jerry Slimer the Second sound? Second for short?" The slime felt happier than ever before. It had a name. A name. It had never had one before. It was just a slime, and that was that. But Sky, for some explainable reason, decided to give the slime one. Humans were certainly more complicated than Second had originally thought.

Sky continued to grin that same idiotic yet amazing smile. "Let's go find ourselves an inn!" He jumped excitedly, his fist shooting up towards the sky. "Fanfics always seem to have those!"

Second simply stared at him.

"A fanfic is-Oh, never mind. Don't mind the ramblings of a slightly crazy teenager."

Sky laughed when Second gave a nod.
