Out of nowhere, a flash appeared in the middle of nowhere. Out stepped another dark skinned man, with the usual blue clothing. Where was he? He was in the middle of some sort of jungle, and it was getting dark. All of a sudden, knowledge flooded through his head, and he knows that the dark is dangerous.

I looked around, to look for them, but there was nothing in sight. I used this time to escape. I ran around this jungle, but only to find more and more trees. There was no shelter or anywhere to stay in. I was a goner. I looked around, and saw one, heading right for him, grumbling un-humanly. A zombie. It was getting closer, so I ran up some vines and broke leaves to make some sort of shelter, living in some leaves. It was very bad shelter, but it was something. I could see the zombie right underneath me, jumping to get to me, but it didn't work. His eyes were on me only. Perhaps if he had looked around, he could've climbed the vines to get to me, but somehow he found the vines anyway. He was focused on me, nothing could help me now, in this crappy shelter. He was approaching the "door", and I had to react. His head popped up, and I slammed my fist as hard as I could into his face. He let go of the vines with ease, and fell to his death. I sighed, with relief, but also guilt. I remembered zombies were dead version of Minecraftians who died, and I just killed one. Again.

I fell asleep in the corner, I wish I had dug up something to block the door, but as the suns light hit my face, I knew I was safe. I hadn't been killed in my sleep or anything, nope, I was a safe man. I looked down the vines, as I climbed down, making sure it is 100% safe. I needed to mark my territory, so I dug up a HUGE patch of dirt, and made a large tower, this is where I live now. I looked around the jungle area, but looking back, so I can still see my "tree house". Pigs and chickens. I would've hoped for cows, to get some leather too, but this is what I have so far. I killed some pigs and chickens, and left some alone. I was very hungry, so I needed to cook it, because raw food won't do much.

I went closer to my home, and knocked down some small trees. I created planks, sticks, and finally a crafting table. I created a sword and a pickaxe. I was pretty much ready. The crafting table was right underneath my house, so I could go down and craft something, but it's only safe in the daytime. I looked around, and found a nearby hole in the floor, it wasn't a cave, but it supplied me with some cobblestone. I was advancing. I built another sword (even though I hadn't used the wooden one) and was forced to make another pickaxe, because my wooden one broke after several minings. I had removed all the leaves, and made an even bigger cobble room. I had felt so proud in making this tree-house, I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. I mined some cobble from the hole too, but that's around it apart from useless gravel. I added torches to my room, and a chest. I had also moved my crafting table into my room, so it's safer to craft, just in case my sword breaks in battle.

It was nearing night, and any other day I'd be shivering with fear, but right now, I was ready. I felt like a sort of warrior, a fighter. I looked around, and saw three zombies, looking at me through a gap I left in my room, as an equal to a window. They were jumping at me, trying to get into my base, but I jumped down, and sliced at them. 2 died straight away, but one put on quite a fight. Avoiding my every sword attack, he got one too many hits on me. I got angry, but I was low on health. I faced his back and before he could do anything, he died. Behind me, hit another zombie, but I was too low on health to kill it, so I quickly climbed the vines and entered my base. I ate enough food, and was back to full health and hunger. Time to take out the zombie. He jumped back down, without taking any damage, and killed off the zombie. Just then, I saw something move in the distance. Another zombie? Best take care of him before he causes any damage.
