"Entanglement" ~A DreamXD x Reader

(V2) Chapter 41

"Just finished decorating the portal!" I happily skipped into the living room. After several hours of grueling labor tidying up the portal between admin center and Night Smp, I was quite literally ready to hit the hay.

"Oh good! I've gotten a bit of a head start on the guest house," XD pointed towards a small structure near the edge of the woods, "The spruce wood is good right?"

"Yup!" I yawned, "What time is it? I can't tell since it is always night here," I glanced towards the clock and backed away in shock, "2:22 AM?!? I'm going to sleep..."

...Timeskip One Night, (If that's a thing there)

"Good morning! Or rather, Good Night!" DreamXD jostled me awake from my deep slumber, and I groaned in frustration. Both of us went downstairs and treated ourselves to some leftover strawberry pancakes from yesterday morning before starting the day. The night was very cold, and the stars were particularly bright, illuminating the ground so that we could see. I crafted a couple of torches and lanterns, along with a few candles for light. I placed the neccaties around our house and down the path my past lover had begun to craft. It was quite chilly outside, so thankfully even the mobs were hiding; that is until I officially went into the forest.

DreamXD was busy working on the guest house, and I was still fixing up the path to spawn with wood and torches when I heard a familiar gurgling sort of sound. Zombies. Tons of zombies. I whipped around and unsheathed my sword from its holster, its broken iron frame not very comforting. The horde of mobs started off with just one simple zombie coming from behind the bushes, something I could handle very easily. Because of limited light however, neither me or XD could go mining, and we didn't have many ores, so I had no armor either.

I sliced the first zombie's head clean off, its corpse turning into the typical rotting flesh. Then came the next wave, this time it was five of the monsters, and I made the decision to tower up in case there were more. From two blocks up, I easily dealt with the creatures. A few spiders then arrived, attempting to knock me off. I fell twice, but I quickly dealt with them with a few good crits and got back onto my tower. Now here was the real challenge.

It seemed that an entire legion of skeletons had arrived. Yes, several were fighting each other, but there were about twelve of them in total, nine of which decided to attack me all at once. One of their arrows pierced my shoulder, and I cried in pain. While infinite lives on this server, dying was certainly unpleasant and you could lose all of your resources. I quickly regained my ground. Running in and breaking the skeletons' brittle bones. One after another I fought, till there were only five left and a few dozen zombies. At this point, I was praying day would magically come, but alas it didn't. Phantoms soon arrived, since my sleep schedule was thrown off in this world, and a creeper or two could be heard exploding behind me. I was in real trouble now...

545 Words. This chapter was one of the hardest to write for me, because Technoblade was one of my many inspirations. The last one was harder though, since... Y'know. I know its been almost a week now, but It's something that's been really hard on me. I hope that you've enjoyed this chapter, Aurora out. (Posting tomorrow or the next day_
