In A New World (A Minecraft Story)

The Capture

After the argument was settled, we got into the car and put the windows down to get the smell out. The drive was pretty quiet, mostly because everyone in the back seat were bracing themselves against the wind. Steve even used Lily as a shield against the wind. I guess he really hated the idea of that much wind in his face. Hero and Lily didn't seem to mind, for some reason. I looked back a little, "hey, everyone okay back there?"

Steve shouted, "WHAT?!"

Hero chuckled and raised his voice over the wind, "yeah! We're fine! We're used to it!"

I sniffed the air and I couldn't smell the skunk anymore, so I rolled up my window, "okay. That's better. Now, everyone is feeling better, right?"

Steve rubbed his ear, "I could have sworn that wind nearly took out my ears..."

Hero laughed, "then you'll never survive a flight on the Ender Dragon." He rubbed Lily's arm a little, and it was obvious that Lily enjoyed it with her closed eyes and smile.

The car suddenly jolted over to the side. I made a sharp scream and held onto my seat. There was nothing in front of us. I growled, "Cece!"

She looked at me, "a dog just ran in the way." She looked back to the road and veered too quickly back into the lane

I held onto the door of the car, "Cece, please don't crash the car!"

Cece nodded as she tried getting the car back into the lane. It swerved in and out of the lane.

Hero made the marvelous idea of putting a forcefield in front of the car, not helping with vision.

Cece panicked and continued to swerve.

I screamed at her, "PUT ON THE BRAKES!"

The car stopped abruptly and something teleported right in front of the car just in time to get hit. Lucky for whatever it was, the car was going just fast enough to knock it to the ground. But unfortunately, the car was still going and the sound of an enderman in pain started filling the air. The car stopped and whatever it was was stuck underneath the car. We all felt the car shake a little as the creature tried getting itself free.

I jumped out of the car and saw the enderman with its arm stuck under a wheel as it tried using the rest of its body to try lifting the car off it. I sighed as it started biting into the tire.

Hero got out and walked over to the enderman. The enderman's eyes seemed to be glue to Hero's as he hushed it, "it's okay, big guy. We'll get you free, eventually. Don't bite that."

And just as he said it, the angry enderman bit into the tire hard enough to puncture it, making the tire flat.

I sighed, "great... now we'll have to replace the tire..."

"And we don't have a spare tire." Cece said as she limped away from the trunk.

I sighed, "great... now, how are we going to get to the next stop?"

Hero looked at me, "what did I say the last time?"

I gawked, "well, good luck getting Notch to his feet... I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want to walk after being beaten up."

Lily added, "and I don't think that we'll be able to carry everything."

I nodded, "I think we should remove another car's tire and use it as and replacement."

Cece kept looking, "well, here's the equipment. Good luck getting the car up and removing the tire, though..."

I took the equipment, "I will. And I already see one that we can use." And just like that, I ran over to a car around the same size as the other car and put the jack under it. I started raising the car up, but I felt the car get too heavy, even with the hydraulic system. I hissed in annoyance, "of course I'm not strong enough!"

I heard someone come from behind me, so I sighed, expecting it to be either Hero or Steve, or possibly Lily. But what I didn't expect was a rough voice to come from behind, "well, look who's having problems over here."

I turned around and felt all the air in my lungs leave. Right there, of all the things in the world, was a small gang-related group. Two of them had guns pointed at my head, and the one in between them looked to have a whip coiled up on his side. I could only stare at the weapons that were in front of me. All I knew was this: I had to get them away from the others, and the others better not try saving me. I looked at the men with the guns first, but the one in the middle stepped up, catching my attention. I squeaked, "um... is this car yours? I'm sorry." I backed away from the tire.

The one in the middle shook his head, "it's too late for apologies."

I looked over at Hero, who was staring in my direction, seeing the situation unfold. I remembered that Lily could read minds, so I stared at Lily until she looked at me, stating in my mind, tell everyone to meet me on the road ahead... I looked back at the gang just in time to see Lily nod and start talking to the others.

The man in the middle came up to me looked me into the eyes, "I bet you have a little family around here. More thieves around here." I had a snarky comment of how all they have to do is turn around to see powerful beings that could crush their skulls in just by looking at them, but I knew that would get us into more trouble than needed.

I growled, "I'm a loner. Nothing more and nothing less."

They looked at each other, but the one in the middle seemed to know what was up. He walked up to me, "ha! You? A loner?! You're barely able to get that tire. How did you survive as long as you did without any help?"

I sighed, "I've been through a lot of hardships. Come on man... just let me go and I'll be out of your hair!" I was getting frustrated. Then I looked up and I nearly gaped.

The others had somehow got a good tire and were putting it onto the car while releasing the enderman. I showed real frustration as I watched everyone get into the car. Cece got into the driver's seat and Hero made sure everyone got in quietly, looking at me for a moment, as if to show that he really hopes to see me again, and got into the car as it raced by us.

I sighed in relief just before getting a gun to my back, "put her in cuffs. We'll drive her south. Our direction. That way, if she wants to confess to her crime, she can, and we'll accept her with open arms. And with that, all of us can live happy lives!"

It took me a while to realize the direction that I was going to be forced to head to. And it was the opposite direction of where my group is going. And that means that I have to do more than spend a night in order to get to everyone. And with the clicks of the handcuffs, I knew it was final.

Hey everyone! I know. I'm obsessed with roleplaying. But hey! It's a fun thing! That, and I'm practicing my story telling abilities. And it's also helping with talking in groups and just bring social in general. Anyway, I know it's a little shorter than my usual, but I wanted to make it a little more interesting. Now I'm practicing my suspense story writing! Yeay! So remember the following:
