"AAAAAIIIIIIIIIEEEEEE!!"
Axel jumped over an old stone foundation from a griefed house. The green-clad griefer with a fish bowl for a helmet was in Boom Town in search of some fun. And he certainly found it...

And it was chasing him.

"GOTTAHIDEGOTTAHIDEGOTTAHIDE!! I'M TOO HOT TO DIE!!"
Axel thought to himself frantically. He then spotted an abandoned (and surprisingly in-tact) house behind a torn-up church. The giant grabbed the cobblestone corner of the church to sharply turn right and ducked inside the house. Through the doorless entryway, Axel could just barely make out the silhouettes of the griefers that believed they were still pursuing him.

"That... Was... Way too close..."
He huffed to himself. The black-haired brute (sorta) wiped his unibrow as his ears still slightly rung from the loud explosions of the TNT being hurled at him.

But then he heard something. He couldn't tell if it was because his ears were ringing and making him hallucinate or if he actually heard it.

"Is that... Crying?"
Axel muttered to himself. He rose to his sandaled, sore feet, walking towards the sound and straining his ears to listen. Axel's eyes popped open when he realized that he wasn't just hearing things. He actually heard someone or something crying!

He took no hesitation in climbing over the wall in front of him and bolting closer and closer to the sound. Axel may be a griefer, but he had a heart of gold, and sometimes it would feel as if it had shattered if he didn't help someone in need. Especially when they're crying.

He finally found a run-down library where the crying was loudest, despite the volume of TNT going off in the area. For some reason, the place didn't look like not even one block missing. At least it didn't before Axel stepped inside.

The place was completely ransacked. The only stuff left was a few bookshelves, a table, a few overturned chairs and a pet carrier with tiny hands reaching through the grated door like a caged ani-- Wait what?

"What the..."
Axel stepped closer to the carrier to look closer. And his dark gray eyes couldn't believe it. There was a baby inside it!

"WHAT THE HECK?!"
He yelled as he fell backwards in shock. He couldn't believe it! Who in their right mind would put a baby in a pet carrier?! And in such bad condition... Not just you, but also the carrier.

You had gunpowder in your h/c hair, your cheeks were red from crying your e/c eyes out and you didn't even have clothes on, except for a diaper. The closet thing to clothes you had in that thing was a f/c blanket shoved in the back corner. Your body was really thin like you hadn't eaten for a while.

Axel's heart sank to the floorboards at your living conditions. He probably would've started crying with you. But he snapped out of his trance, opened the carrier and took you out. You whimpered a little as he cradled you in his massive arms.

"Shh... It's alright, it's alright... I got ya..."
Axel sat down with his back against the wall to the left of the carrier as he held you. Eventually, you dozed off, snuggled into his chest. He smiled at you softly.

"Aw, she's adorable..."
His smile faded as he looked around. This was Boom Town, city of destruction and griefing. Not exactly the best home for a baby.

"This is no place for a child. You're comin' with me back to my home."
Axel whispered, although you were asleep so you didn't react. Grabbing the blanket out of the carrier and wrapping you in it, he stood up and stepped out. His eyes widened when he was nearly seen by a group griefers and ducked back inside.

"Crap, I forgot! How am I gonna get outta here?"
He murmured to himself. He peeked around the corner without being spotted. Only then did he notice how many there were. Too many to go around or over and going under them was just stupid.

"The only way past them is through them..."
Axel pointed out quietly. An idea came to his mind. He smirked. There was only one way through them. He had to do what he did best.

Grief.

Axel hopped out the window to his right where the pet carrier was and climbed on top of the library. Immediately, he built a TNT launcher on the roof.

"HEY DIRTBAGS!"
He shouted. The griefers all looked up at him.

"You newbie! You've got yourself cornered! 'Round here, we're basically experts! We eat chumps like you for breakfast!"
A redheaded griefer mocked him. Axel smirked as he placed a lever on his contraption.

"YEAH?! WELL BREAKFAST IS SERVED!"
He screamed as he flipped the lever and the TNT went flying at the griefers, sending them flying like chickens.

Along with a few actual chickens.

"YEAH! BURN BABY BURN!"
Axel cheered as he jumped down and bolted for the Boom Town sign with the Nether portal. You were now awake and sputtered at Axel's comment.

"No offense, little dudette."
