The Fighter (Minecraft Story) Book One Of The Moone Trilogy

Chapter 17: Idk What To Name This Chapter

I have Gangnam Style stuck in my head o—o okay then.

~<>~

We had a small funeral for those who died in the fight. It could've been worse, 14 died, but that's 14 more than I wanted to. We had them buried right on the edge of the back wall in the cemetery, all together in a special place to commemorate soldiers that had fallen in battle. It was pretty sad seeing the families mourn, and all I could do was tell them that things would get better and that they won't die in vain.

After the burial, I wanted to chat with everyone, but work was still needed to be done. The small hospital was overflowing with wounded, and some had to take refuge in some nearby houses. I wasn't trusted to try and heal people, so I helped with carrying supplies to rooms, like food, potions, bandages, etc. Joe got better quickly, and he had a secret talent of healing people, so he was a doctor as well.

I was in a room watching some guy bandage up some other guy, when Danny came in.

"Hey Kat!" He said, giving me a hug.

"Hi Danny." I laughed. "You doing alright?"

"Yep! I wanted to come and join the fight, but my daddy said no, and gave me to Mrs. Fletcher."

I nodded. Mrs. Fletcher was this older lady that had, like, 13 cats, and talked to herself. I admired her.

"That's good. We don't want you getting hurt."

"Aww, you would save me!" He said.

My heart felt weird. "I could barely save myself."

"So did you beat everyone up? Did you make them run away like babies?" He ignored my comment.

"Not exactly, but we did win, and that's all that matters."

"Right. Well, imma go. Bye!" He ran away.

I thought about what he said. I would save him. How? I can barely protect myself. I need to rely on people. But I don't want to. I don't want to trust anyone and rely on anyone. I wanted to be on my own, but I've already warmed up to too many people.

~<>~ 3 person POV ~<>~

"What happened to your arm...?" Herobrine asked.

Lieutenant Skeleton was kneeling in front of him, with only one arm. It didn't hurt, but he kept leaning to one side.

"Er, the... girl." Skeleton said, nervously.

"Oh." Herobrine said, an octave higher. "Okay."

"We weren't able to get her-"

"Obviously."

"-because of her friends. Jake, Infinity,-"

"Do not say their names!" Herobrine yelled, making Lieutenant Skeleton flinch badly.

"My apologies. About saying their names, and failing you."

Silence.

Then, Herobrine laughed. "I obviously knew that your army would fail."

"You... did?"

"Of course! It was just a test. There are definitely some talented people there, and now I know that for sure."

Lieutenant Skeleton was honestly upset that his lord made him lose his army and his arm on purpose. Nevertheless, he stayed quiet, knowing that what Herobrine did was best.

"So..." Herobrine said to himself. "What shall we do now..."

"My lord." Lieutenant Skeleton risked it. "Is there any way that..." He gestured to his armless shoulder.

Herobrine sighed. Other than Colonel Creeper, and General Enderman, Lieutenant Skeleton was his best commander.

"You did well, even though you failed me." Herobrine twirled his hand, and a bunch of bones flew out of nowhere. They combined together to form an arm, and connected to his shoulder.

"Thank you, Lord Herobrine." The Skeleton said.

"You are dismissed."

Lieutenant Skeleton walked out of the room. As he strutted down the hall, he couldn't wait till the next attack. If that powerful attack that he just pulled was only a test, he couldn't wait until the real battle.

~<>~ Infinity's POV (didn't see that coming, didja?) ~<>~

(<>This is just a short POV because I don't wanna give anything away, and it overlaps Kat's POV <>)

I gotta admit, that was pretty freakin awesome. First we were shootin all these skeletons and zombies, and we were like "yay!" and they were like "Nuu!" and it was fun. Then they got in and we battled it out. We lost a few people, but not as many as we could've. Then we saw Kat run away.

I poked Jake in the shoulder. He turned around, and I pointed to Kat running behind the town hall. Then, we saw the Mutant Skeleton on the top of a nearby building. Wait, how did he get up there? He jumped off to where Kat was.

I sighed. "We better go help her."

Jake grumbled something I couldn't hear. Then, he yelled, "Link! Gordon! Abby! Come on!"

Link jumped from the wall, and Abby and Gordon ran over. Then, we all headed to the town hall.

We were just about done getting around it, when I heard Kat.

"Ow hair ow hair ow hair!"

We got around and saw Kat being dragged away with the Mutant Skeleton grabbing her hair. Then, she grabbed one of his crossbows on his back and slammed it on his arm, breaking it (I had never been so proud of her in my life). Then, she started slowly crawling backwards, and Jake ran to her, as well as everyone else.

You aren't touching her." He warned the mutant. "I won't let you."

"Me either." Abby got in front with Gordon.

"It would be boring without her." I added as I notched an arrow, as well as Link.

The skeleton growled. "Soon, girly." Then, he glanced at me, and jumped up in the air.

"Now guys!" Jake yelled and we raced forward.

But the skeleton hit the ground and went through, just like the mutant zombie did. The ground closed up right as we all got there, leaving a scar.

Then, Jake started scolding Kat, but I could barely think. The Mutant Skeleton saw me. He knew I was still here.

I returned to the conversation, and groaned. "Just give it a rest."
