A Boy and a Zombie (Minecraft OC story)

The dream

(Astros POV)

I hear a zombie growling. The noise is faint, but its growing closer.

I draw my stone sword in my right hand, and a torch in my left then make my way outside.

I track the noise of the zombie and follow it. But the more I follow it, the more it goes away.

I start picking up my pace to catch up to the zombie, I dont want it hurting the innocent villagers.

I finally catch the noise, and its coming from a mineshaft. The noises the zombie makes turn- interesting?..

They aren't normal zombie noises

The closest I could describe the sound to is coughing. A hoarse cough.

The coughing turned to crying.

Maybe it isn't a zombie? I blindly walk into the mineshaft to be greeted by a cave spider landing on my face.

I loudly shreik, causing the spider to freak out. I quickly threw it off of me before it could harm me. The spider skits backwards.

The spider then regains its stance and begins to strike at me. My health is low and my hunger bar is lower.

I cant survive at this rate. I pull out cooked mutten from my inventory and began to eat it to regain my health.

The cave spider notices and snags it out of my hand before I could finish it.

"HEY YOU ASSHOLE! GIVE THAT BACK!" I yell at the spider. The yelling startles it so it runs away, the food still in its fangs.

I begin to chase him throughout the mineshaft before I corner it.

I pointed my sword at it and the spider dropped it. I quickly grab the spider slobbered mutten. It grossed me out so I just threw it back at the spider.

Then I realized-

The spider wasn't feral? It was just hungry?

I give it another peice of mutten and the spider walks up to my leg, rubbing its head alongside my shin.

I giggle at the touch, cave spiders are surprisingly soft.

I cant believe it, I've befriended a cave spider. A spider is now my only friend.

The spider thinks for a moment then starts to crawl off to a different shaft of the cave. I followed it behind to a darker part of the mineshaft.

I hear a zombie growl, so I get my sword and torch.

I wave my torch around to find the zombie.

I see it, barley. Its in the corner of the cave. Buried into a ball. The spider drops the mutten then pushes it towards the zombie.

The zombie eagerly grabbed the mutten and tears into it.

I hear a faint "Thank you." Come from the Zombie. Wait. Zombies can't talk? I shine the torch near the figure again to see more of them.

Red hair? Zombies can't have red hair. The zombie notices me and shrieks, pouncing at me.

I wake up.

"What the hell?" I say to myself in a cold voice. "It was a dream." I reassured myself.

"Aww" I said with a sorrow tone in my voice. "That means the spider wasn't real" I say with a frown as I stand up and get dressed.

The villager whoes house im in looks even more confused, but just walked away.
