Minecraft: Virtual Reality

One Step Closer

     I really thought it was over then. The poison I got from the spider, and getting smacked on the head, I thought it was going to kill me. But it didn't. I cheated death. Or should I say, Herobrine cheated death, since he turned us into codes. Not only that, but he managed to protect his codes even when the Farlands got removed. It's almost like Herobrine can do anything. He's even found a way to break through the boundaries that separate the game from our world. As I have said, that is one advanced A.I. I wonder if he really means what he says, that he'll let us out of the game if we beat all three bosses. I wonder . . .

    "Mitchell . . ." I tried opening my eyes, seeing blurs focusing into an image. "Mitchell!" I opened my eyes and saw Natalie standing over me. You know what's crazy? I still love her. Even after everything she's done to me. I'm just one of those guys to dream.

    "Ugh . . ." I groaned, "what happened?"

    "You got poisoned and lost your balance. You were dying. We had to make a diamond pickaxe with the vein of diamonds we found to mine obsidian. Then . . . well, we went to the Nether."

    "What?" I said, surprised.

    "We were able to get a brewing stand and brew a regeneration potion in time to save you. Thank God we did . . ." she started to sound depressed " . . . I don't know what I'd do without you." I was surprised that she said that. I must have looked at her weirdly, because she blushed, smiling, and said, "I mean, he he . . ."

    "So," I said, "you went to the Nether . . .?"

    "Yeah!" she answered, embarrassed, trying to run from what she said.

    "Yeah," Ethan told me, "and look what we got on the way back!" He went into the options and accessed his inventory. He selected something, and some kind of skull ended up in his hand. It was sort of black. It was a Wither Skull!

    "A Wither Skull!" I said, excited.

    "Yep," Ethan said. "We were pretty lucky. We got this from just one skeleton."

    "Do you guys know what this means?!" I shouted. "We are one step closer to getting out of here! It takes three Wither Skulls to make The Wither. On down, two to go. We are going to make it. We are going to kill the three bosses, and I promise this: I will get you all out of this world that I dragged you into."

Sorry this chapter was shorter than usual. I have a life you know!
