repeating days

a weird place he doesn't understand

Even if for the long run it wouldn't suffice  but right now the timer for the three years didn't exist on his arm and he was only concerned with surviving today.

Calming a bit down he stood up and left the comfort of his box shaped house to go into the dark.

He remembered asking Phil why Phil didn't go strip mining instead it was much safer and much more controlled but to his reply Phil asked tommy if he saw Phil ever run the answer was no apparently the fact was that the dust and grime in the air of strip mines was so contaminated that it caused Phil permanent damage to his lungs and it was so bad that it transferred to the other world.

And for tommy he prefers to be able to run, and since he was living so close to it it was a great place for mobs to spawn so he would have to mob proof it sooner or later anyways.

So with a new found confidence tommy wandered into the cave with twelve torches and wooden axe and a stone pickaxe.

The entrance was small  and entering it felt weird at first he never liked small spaces but the long bended tunnels that occasionally expanded into bigger spaces felt unsafe, he was told that he was claustrophobic but he never believed them.

Turns out they where right because his breath quickened and his vision blurred,  I happened before but thechno or Wilbur's where always there by his side to comfort him at any moment but now he was alone forcing his legs to just move forward towards the dark areas in hopes to find that iron ore.

After four torches he found a patch of coal that gave him another 22 coal pieces to use half of them he quickly turned to torches as he continues into the depths he needed at least 14 iron ore to be happy, and soon after ten touches he found a iron patch proudness blossomed in his heart as he mined the patch.

The iron patch was big but by the time he reached 13 pieces a crackling sound echoed through the cave, then another one and another each coming closer and closer.

A skeleton.

Tommy needed to hide, he could not risk running and getting shot at running into the 4×4 small hole he dug to get the iron without thinking he blocked off the entrance  with cobblestone and as he placed the last peace down the last thing he saw from the cave where hollowed in eyes that where darker than void itself a pale color decorated the monsters head and a bow drawn straight at his head then it became dark.

.
He managed to place the last block down before he heard a arrow lodge itself into the cobblestone he just placed down.

One step back another his back hit the cold stone walls his hands reached out to the side only to be met with cold walls, his mind forced him to place a torch down and suddenly he saw the small place he was in a small 4×4 and slowly it seemed to shrink in the walls started to push against each other and soon the room was shrinking and he was becoming bigger and bigger, his breath picked up and soon his vision was blurry.

His hands became sweaty and the torch in his hand fell down and hit the floor the rattling of bones behind that cobble wall enforced his fears and soon tommy crumbled down onto the stone floor his hands where placed on the ground trying to ground himself to reality but the coldness of the ground mad his hands cold.

And soon tears where welling up in his eyes the coldness under his fingers what's nothing like techno's calming voice or Wilbur's caring smile it was nothing as Phil's touch and soon the tears made his vision blurry.

His breaths where high intakes and no outtakes his breathing was fast and unstable a headache formed and soon one hand was clutching his hair pulling at it while the other wiped away the tears.

The headache got worse so tommy pulled at his hair stronger but noting calmed.

Then he did one thing he looked up and saw them all with a worried expression, his shaky hand left his hair and reached out for them.
