Chapter Fifteen: How Could I Forget Diamonds?

Lel okay so I didn't finish the picture. I was gonna show what I have done already, but I'll just wait.

~<>~

How am I the 'queen of archery?' I mean, I like the attention, but I'm sure any one of these people could make a bullseye.

I was just about to say something, but then I heard a voice.

"There you are!"

I turned and saw Infinity coming toward me with a worried expression on.

"I've been looking all over for you!" She literally started hugging me and petting my head. Then, she turned toward Link. "I'm so sorry if my little darling caused you any trouble. She can be a troublemaker sometimes."

"Little darling?" I asked her.

Link laughed. "No worries."

"Really?" Infinity sounded surprised. "She didn't shoot anyone? Not even on purpose?"

"I'm right here ya know." I muttered. "Besides, I am the queen of archery."

"Sorry." Infinity said, not really meaning it. "Well, I just saw you in here and automatically thought something bad happened."

"Thanks for having faith in me."

"No problem." She took her bow off of her shoulder. "I was going to beat Link in some 1v1 anyways."

Link snorted. "Bring it on."

They both went over to the biome place.

"So Kat!"

I jumped at the sound of Danny's voice.

"Wanna see me practice more?" He asked me.

"Sure!" I smiled, and gave him the bow.

~<>~

After a while, I left Danny to practice on his own. I left the building and just started walking around. I wasn't going anywhere in particular, so, naturally, I started thinking.

This place was huge. There were a lot of people, families, elderly, teenagers, and little kids alike. How did it come to be? How did Jake create all of this? He's just a teenager. He may have his sister, but still.

Him and Infinity had some kind of... tension, though. I could see it whenever I see them together. Jake always looked at Infinity accusingly. Either she didn't notice or didn't care.

At this point I expected someone to stop me. But no one acknowledged me. I was done thinking (it kinda hurt), and I didn't know what to do next.

Wait, Jake told me to hang out with Gordon. Something about giving him a bruise. Heh heh.

I thought about where he could be, when I heard a boom and saw a small puff of smoke near the fighting place. I laughed and started running there.

~<>~

"We have to stop meeting like this." I laughed and ran to Gordon, who had smoke coming off of him. I reached out my hand to help him up.

"I'm just smokin hot." He grinned as he accept my hand. No, not in marriage.

"What were you doing this time?" I asked.

He gestured over to the crater, which was by a few dispensers. "I was making dispensers that shot out arrows so people can dodge them."

"And you blew it up... How?"

He shrugged. "I dunno. Just a thing with me, I guess."

"Gordon! Clean this up!" A guy with a sword came over.

"Alright alright, sheesh." Gordon muttered as he got out a few stone blocks from his inventory bag, which was just one pocket clipped to the side of his pants.

Wait, I forgot I had my inventory bag!

I looked inside and saw that I still had a bow (with no arrows), an iron sword, a few pieces of steak, and my six diamonds that I found from the mining expedition with Charlie. I decided to keep them where they were, just in case. But how could I forget diamonds? Well, I did forget my whole past. Just ignore that.

"Whatcha doin?" Gordon asked me.

"Nothing much." I answered back. "Hey what time is it?"

He pulled a gold clock out of his inventory, then checked it. "The sun is going to set soon. So about 6:00-ish."

"Okay. Wait a second." I frowned. "I don't have anywhere to sleep."

"I'm sure there are houses that you can sleep in." Gordon patched up the last block. "There. Now, wanna go to dinner and save a spot for everyone?"

"Sure."

~<>~

Now I have just realized that I have been doing a lot of time lapses. Sorry.

~<>~

"And so I said, if the redstone fits!" Gordon cracked up laughing.

We all either rolled our eyes or smiled and shook our head. Abby laughed along.

It's been a few days since I have been here. Jake actually let me crash on the town hall (there were extra rooms there just in case), so I was good. I was acquainted with a lot of people, explored the place, and helped out a lot. It was kind of a regular routine, but still fun. Jewel was having fun, too. She alternated between playing with the farm animals to chilling in my room (which was all quartz, containing a double bed, double chest, furnace, crafting table, and couch just because) and sleeping.

I finished the last of my mushroom stew as Gordon told another joke, and Abby laughed. There was something between those two... something that I had to interfere with. To make it better, of course.

Link had also joined us. He's been getting closer to the group, sitting with us and talking with us. I wasn't sure why he didn't join us before. I guess I'm just that lovable.

Infinity tensed up out of nowhere.

"What?" I asked.

All of a sudden, a large blast was heard outside, far away.

We all looked at Gordon, who put his hands up. "Not me this time, I swear."

We got up and ran out the building as another boom was set off. We got to the front town gait and noticed 4 guards up there, looking at something.

"What's wrong?!" Jake yelled up at them. They looked back with a frightened look on their face, not saying anything.

Abby grumbled something about how men are weak, and got out a few ladders and climbed up. Then, she gasped. The rest of us started climbing up, until I was the last one.

I gasped as well. About 200 blocks away from the wall, an army of at least 100 skeletons and 100 zombies were standing there, staring at us. They were all armed, the zombies with stone swords and the skeletons with arrows. I wondered why they haven't attacked us yet, but then I saw a particular skeleton shoot a flashing arrow to the wall. It landed right in front of it, blowing up. The blast shook the wall, and destroyed a few blocks. However, the wall was three blocks deep so it only made a dent.

But I was still worried. Because we had 200 monsters at our gates, led by the mutant skeleton with freaking explosive arrows.

~<>~

FREAKING EXPLOSIVE ARROWS.

Yeah, I have so many good and evil ideas for this story, I'm just trying to piece them together.

And I'm sorry if this was a short, choppy and/or crappy, chapter, I had no idea where I was going with it.
