Lyra's P.O.V.
I laid on my bed, bored to death. My eighteenth birthday was coming up and I knew exactly what I wanted, but I was too cowardly to ask. Besides, Theresa had left to tend to her garden and Harold was out exploring the outside world. Sometimes, I'd overhear him telling Theresa that he was going to gamble with the "other guys", whatever those were. I predicted that these "other guys" were imaginary friends (a few of which I've had, but they've all left) that he had. I'm surprised his stayed with him. Mine disappeared.
I tend to go off topic a lot. I'm Lyra. My eighteenth birthday was in three days and I only wanted one thing. No, not Theresa's chocolate chip cookies (although they are fabulous), and not one of Harold's souvenirs from the outside world. I wanted to go outside for myself. Play in Theresa's garden, jump in the rivers that Harold told me about, and -most of all- find other humans. Theresa might have been wrong about us being the only three, right?
I looked around. My room was small without any windows. It had a wooden bed with a white mattress, black sheets and a white pillow. All across the walls and ceiling were posters that Harold brought back for me. They were of these guys made entirely out of squares and I loved looking at them. Harold told me that back then, they called them Minecraft guys. He got me a thing-a-ma-bob computer once. I downloaded the so-called Minecraft. There, I played with a bunch of other square figures. It was pretty cool. There's also this YouTube thing, where I watched Minecraft videos. My favorite videos were by this CaptainSparklez dude. He said dude a lot and got me into the habit of it too. I also loved watching his friends.
Anyway, I got out my computer thing and got on Minecraft. On the multiplayer server I loved, I got on the survival games. I chose Axeman for my kit. Axes were my favorite.
Antvenom has joined the server
Um, what?
SkythekidRS has joined the server
Again, what?
BajanCanadian has joined the server (I don't know their MC usernames so if I'm wrong don't hate)
For the third time, but with more emphasis, WHAT?
JeromeASF has joined the server
WHAT???
CaptainSparklez has joined the server
OMG. OMG. OMG. OMG. OMG. OMG. YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
As soon as they got on, the server filled with people. The game started nearly immediately.
Sparklez was next to me in the game. I turned my character's head towards him. His was turned toward mine.

pokie121 (don't hate on the username I chose, I like it): Team?
CaptainSparklez: eh, sure.
pokie121: k.
<no more chat log>
Boom pow. Teamed with Sparklez.
After the countdown, I raced to the chests. I got a golden axe (one of my favorite weapons) and some raw beef. I killed someone while they were looking in a chest and took the chain chestplate and boots. Good start, eh?
Sparklez was there too. He had on a leather chestplate with golden pants.

CaptainSparklez: The other guys teamed. They're the biggest problem.
pokie121: yep.
