*~ Toni's P.O.V ~*
I walked outside of the house, today looked like it was going to be a good day. I closed the door and started to walk away from my new home.
We were all now living in a cave that we'd dug out ourselves. And it's camouflaged so that any unwanted Grievers or Mobs won't destroy our place. We had a Griever problem the last few times in our other houses, so we just basically moved around. Still all 9 of us have a our own rooms, so it's all good.
Apparently the reason why you couldn't sign out was because of a malfunction or bug in the system. Something happened internally, so Steve and Alex (another AI) had to tell every single player in all of the Mods. The Mods and Servers are now called Minecraft Mini Worlds (2MW or MW for short), because their creators -who are also trapped here- made some of the areas inside of them habitable for villages. Luckily the bug only keeps us from signing out, which means if we die we spawn back to our bed or original spawning place. Also we don't age which is kinda of good, we all went in as 19 year olds and are now 23 year olds here.
I walked passed a few hills before getting to a small pond. This was my little secluded area that I liked to come too, when I needed to be alone. It was so nice here, I've honestly fell asleep here a few times. But it's odd though, this place -out in the open- felt more at home then where I was at.
Suddenly I saw a small little Creeper walking around the ponds edge, but it was limping along. As soon as it saw me it tired to run, but I went after it.
"Whoa. Whoa. Slow down there little buddy."
I picked him up, cradling him, and he started to hiss an flash,
"Let me go or I'll-."
"I'm just here to fix you up and nothing more, I won't kill you." I said, "Now hold still, please."
He stopped flashing and looked up at me, "I-I s-still don't trus-st you."
"I know and it's okay." I put up my hand and placed it on his injured front leg. My eyes gleamed white, and so did my hand on his wound. "This is my first time healing a lil'Creeper, I've practiced on plants and people. So don't worry you're in good hands." I said honestly, "In the mean time, who did this too you?"
He looked away, and I asked again, "Did a Mob or Player do this to you?"
"Player." He whispered
"Well at least you can trust me. I'm not one of those mean Players, who harm little ones randomly. So if I find them, I'll Grief them up good."
He chuckled a hiss, just as the glow disappeared.
"There. All better." I smiled and set him down
He jumped up and down, "Thank you!"
"And here." I said and knelt down to his height, taking off my glasses and put them on him, "If something happens to you, my glasses will stay with you. It's also a sign of my friendship with you, so if you're ever hurt or lost-" I put a spell on the glasses making it shine, "- these will show you where I'm at."
The glasses fell off his head, but I shrank them down to his size. "They'll grow as you do." I replied, "Now run along and don't get into trouble."
He smiled, "What's your name?"
I replied, "My name is Toni."
"My name is Marty." He smiled
"It was nice to meet you, Marty." I smiled back
He hurried off, "Thank you Toni and bye! See you around!"
I stood up and waved to him, watching him bounce away into the forest and made me smile. He seemed different from the normal Creepers that I've encountered, either way it's good. I turned around and started my way back, but next thing I know Anthony and Dusk are running to me at full speed.
I jumped out of the way, just before they hit me, but they stopped before hitting a tree. They ran back over and told me that there was a Skeleton King, in one of the Mods, that was on my hit list of Crowns. I kinda have a collection going on of King Mobs I've killed. Either way they said that we were leaving right now, so I hustled it over back to home. I sent a quick message to my Stepbrother Trystan, who was also stuck in here, telling him I'd be gone again. He lives with a few of his friends not to far, but has a room here at our house just in case. He messaged me back saying 'Okay. Have fun.', I just laughed and ran along with my friends. He's socializing which is good, he might even be looking for a stronghold again.
*~ TIME SKIP WITH THE TARDIS - The Nether: 2 Hours Later ~*
Me, Lucy, and Dawn knelt before the Skeleton King in the 'Supernatural Mobs' Mod. His majesty wore an iron crown with a diamond in the center of it. Along with his iron armor on his chest had a gold necklace, with a Red Stone in the center. His thrown was made from stone, with various Diamond, Iron, and Gold swords coming out behind it. He clearly wasn't happy, then again I can only tell from his voice and not from his expressionless face. We were shackled for ransacking the treasure room and brought up here. The boys left to go rummage around, about 20 minutes before they came.
"Explain yourselves!" He yelled
"What did he say?" Lucy whispered to us
"He asked 'why we are here'." Dawn whispered back
"Oh."
I looked to my right and saw a Skeleton with a fractured arm bone, I shifted my gaze to him and spoke, "To heal that Skeleton right there, to the right of me."
The Skeleton King looked, along with everyone else, looked to his right hand Skeleton. He saw the obvious fracture on his arm, but he looked back at me with disgust, "We don't need a player here. Especially you. Guards!"
"I guess I'm doing it my way then." I sighed, "Dawn."
She broke the chains, as if butter, and I jumped at the Skeleton. Taking off my shirt (I had a undershirt on underneath) and quickly making a sling to putting it on him, even enchanting it to make the process to go a little faster. About a 1 week to completely heal tops. The other Skeletons and King jumped back at this, some screamed, and quickly came at us.
"Eat some apples, golden, enchanted, and normal ones. Your fracture will heal in a week." I told him before getting off and yelling to Dawn, just as our boys came in from the roof and giant castle doors, "Dawn protect Lucy. I got the golden goose."
"On it!" She yelled as she took out an Axe and Lucy a Bow&Arrow
Setting my sights on the King, I ran in front of him, and I slung my brown bag behind me. He drew his Diamond Sword to me, and I just signaled him to 'bring it on' with a smile on my face. He rushed to me, as I to him, but when he got close I jumped over him and grabbed his crown. Tucking it into my stomach as I braced from impact into the window directly behind the throne.
Landing on rock isn't a good feeling either, but I got up quickly to circle around. I had to meet up at the bridge, that connected the castle to rest of the Nether in that part. The castle itself was in a magma chamber, a portal was at least 300 yards from the bridge, and also the castle's sitting on a thick piece of rock that's in the middle of the room. Luckily I haven't seen a Ghast near by so, Thank You God. Last thing I wanna deal with is a Ghast. Still it's a big castle, and I'm a slow runner, better hurry.
