You gently placed down the last wooden block down. You stepped back to admire your work. It was a simple wooden house, but it'll provide enough shelter and protection for now. Opening the door, you stepped inside. You set up a bed and placed down a crafting bench. Stretching, you let out a yawn. It was sunset, and all of that hard work was really getting to you. You went to your bed.

Rubbing your sleepy eyes, you awoke. Dashing out to the mine, you pulled out a stone pick. Suddenly, you saw a flash of white behind a tree. You gasped. No... It couldn't be him. You swear that you were on single player and peaceful, and that they removed him in 1.6.6.

You backed away from the computer screen, your (e/c) eyes wide. Breathing heavily, you slowly reached for the computer mouse. The character turned slowly to the trees, and there was nothing. You let out a shaky sigh of relief. Stepping down into the mine, you made your character pick at the stone, picking up lots of cobblestone, and the occasional iron ore. Picking at the stone, you stopped. Beneath the stone was wood! Is this a mineshaft? You quickly pulled out your axe and chopped at the wooden plank. You grinned. It was a mineshaft. Recklessly leaping down, you landed into a spider web, and you sighed, agitated.

After a few annoying moments of sinking and breaking a web, you got up and saw you entire screen flash white, and the death screen appeared. You let out a yelp of surprise and fell out of your chair. You SWORE that was him. Herobrine. He was not supposed to do that! People said that he wasn't hostile at first. Shakily, you slammed your hand down on the keyboard, desperately jamming at the Alt. and F4 button to exit. You hands were far too unsteady to click the 'X' button, and after a few attempts, the game finally closed. You steadied your breathing, and hesitantly looked at the Minecraft icon. An innocent pixely block of dirt. Out of curiosity, you clicked on the icon and launched Minecraft. You nervously shifted in your seat, hoping that nothing bad happened.

You practically threw the computer at the wall.

Your account wasn't premium, so you could only play the demo. Dude, you spent 21 bucks on that! You wailed, banging your head on the desk.

"WHAT THE FUUUUUUUUUCK?" you cried, pressing your face on your desk. "Damn you Herobrine, why should a bunch of goddamn pixels just ruin my gaming life?" you sniffed into the desk. You froze, feeling something breathing down your neck. Slowly, cautiously, and fearfully, you turned your head to meet with whatever's eyes.

You screamed.

Blank, white eyes.
