KitKat's POV

Glowing red eyes, surrounded in darkness. I'm out of torches in this stupid cave and my sword broke after I slated the bloody zombie horde, and now there's nothing but spiders left.
GAH! I hate killing spiders! Always have, always will... Run and spare them, or fight and feel guilty but safe...
I haven't much time to think as the bunches of red eyes creep towards me, the hissing and shrieking of them becoming louder. Just as one is about to pounce on me, I grab it's leg and throw it to the other side of the room, running past the others. I feel something small attach to my leg, thinking it's a web I just keep running towards the light outside of the cave. I finally get to the mouth of the cave and just as I'm about to jump out, I hear rattling and the twang of string hitting wood. I turn around only to be hit in the shoulder by an arrow.
"ARGH! Stupid Skeleton!" I yell as I pull the arrow from my smooth flesh quickly but careful enough not to pull any of my skin off my body.
I aim at the skeleton as it gets another arrow from its quiver and throw the arrow aiming at it's head.
"Gotcha..." I mutter under my breath as the arrow collides with the skull and shatters it, the entire creature of bone collapsing and laying lifeless on the ground.
I smirk and walk over, pick up the bow, a few arrows and a bone or two. I put them in my backpack and run to the mouth of the cave, jumping out and landing on my feet at the bottom of the mountain the cave was carved into. I get the used bow and an arrow from my backpack, aim at a rock at the roof of the cave, pull back the string to my cheek and...
"Fwang!" The arrow leaves the strong of the bow, the feather running against my cheek before spiralling through the air towards the rock.
I watch the arrow fly and hit the rock in just the right place, before tumbling down, along with other rocks it was holding up, to cover up the opening of the cave.
The satisfying rumble of destruction fills the air and makes me smile. I take of my backpack and place it on the grassy dirt before opening it and examining what I got. A lot of rotten flesh, bucket of lava, 11 iron, 27 coal, 5 gold ((BUTTER :D)) and 32 red stone, along with the drops I got from the Skeleton. I rub where the skeleton shot me to find it's almost completely healed, but I'm not quite full enough for a full recovery.
Just as I'm closing the backpack I feel a tingle going up my leg where the the web was. My eyes widen as I realise what is clinging onto me.
"Hey there baby spider..." I say softly before prying the small spider off my leg and hold it in my blocky hands.
"Kssk!" The spider shrieks as it covers three of it's small, red, beady eyes with its oversized legs, making slight popping sounds.
"Awwe, don't worry little one, I'm not going to hurt you." I cooed, trying to calm the tiny beast. As it almost always does to passive and passive-aggressive mobs, the baby spider calms down and snuggles up to me.
"You're a cutie, aren't ya?" I smiled as I gently pat the creature.
"Hssk..." It hisses back.
"I'm gonna call you... LolliPop!"
The small spider looked up at me in confusion. And a small pop sound.
"I'm KitKat, main fighter, miner and technically creator of the Sweet Team. I'm going to just call you LolliPop because everything I give nicknames to will be related to food, and you make little popping sounds. Little pop, lollipop, LolliPop!"
The small spider's red eyes sparkled as it hissed in agreement at the reason behind the nickname.
"I'm going to bring you home to meet my friends, Milky, SweetTooth, GummyBear, Mintie and some others who I'm not sure if they're online or not. Also our animal friends, Candycane my Mooshroom, Mittens the Ocelot, uh... Shit! I forgot the rest! I'm not too good with names I don't give." I say with a chuckle.
LolliPop hisses in understanding and jumps off my hand onto my backpack, unzipping it and crawling inside before zipping it back up from the inside. I pick up the backpack and head towards town where the minecart system is.

"You're going to have fun hanging out with us, little one!"
