I was Scared

When Minecraft becomes scary

Steve woke up from bed, yawned and got up. He was in a good mood. He had a nice house, with chests full of materials that made life so much easier. Steve remembered when he first arrived in Minecraftia. He had no tools, weapons or food and every night monsters came out of nowhere and tried to attack him. But Steve managed to survive and now he could live happily without a worry.

After eating breakfast he checked all of his chests. Damn. He didn't have any diamond to make a sword or even a pickaxe. But Steve wasn't too troubled. He knew a mine that had a good supply of diamonds and he could easily get some more. So Steve put on his diamond armour, strapped his iron sword to his back, equipped his iron pickaxe and strolled out of his house.

A minecart on a track was waiting outside of Steve's house, and it led straight to the mine that had the diamond that Steve wanted. He luckily had enough gold and redstone to make this track the day before when he found the diamond choked mine so he could easily get back to it. So Steve hopped in, flicked the lever and zoomed off across and under the land. During the journey, Steve munched on some cooked chicken to satisfy his hunger.

It was only a short walk from the minecart to the huge lump of diamond that was ready to be mined. Steve's eyes shined when he saw the glinting blue rock glowing from the stone. So Steve began to dig.

As he was mining away at the diamond, Steve heard footsteps behind him. Was there another miner in this land who had stumbled upon the same mine? If so, Steve was glad to have company; life in Minecraftia could get lonely sometimes. So, confused, Steve turned around. He froze. What Steve saw in front of him was the stuff of legends. Nobody knew whether he existed or not and whenever somebody claims to have seen him, someone always beats them down and says it's fake, even if it wasn't. But Steve believed those legends now.

Herobrine was staring at Steve, inches away from him. His blank white eyes that seemed to glow seemed to bare down into Steve's soul. His evil smile fixed upon his face. For a few seconds Steve and Herobrine locked eyes. Then Steve screamed and sprinted to the minecart. He shoved the lever and the minecart sped away from the mine and towards his house.

If only the minecart went faster. Steve kept glancing behind him, expecting to see Herobrine running after the cart, somehow keeping up. But he wasn't there. However just as Steve thought that he had escaped, Herobrine's form flashed at the end of the track just for a second. Then it flashed again a few minutes later, but closer to the cart this time. This kept happening, over and over again, until Herobrine seemed to be just behind the cart. Steve could hear strange whispers that scared him so much.

Just as Herobrine seemed to be on him, Steve reached his house. He jumped out and legged it towards the door, opening it and then slamming the door shut once inside. Panting, Steve stood, back to a wall a face of fear locked into position. He shuffled over to his bed, even though it was midday. Steve sat on it, feeling safe. He smiled and casually glanced up at the window, and screeched. Herobrine was pressed up against the glass, smiling in at Steve demonically.

Herobrine turned around, walked a few paces and then disappeared mid-step. Steve felt relived that Herobrine had gone, for a while at least. The good thing was the fact that Steve did manage to get some diamonds, which he quickly made into a diamond sword. He put his pickaxe away in a chest and then sat on the bed with both his diamond and his iron sword. Steve didn't leave his house until the next day.

Steve knew that he had to go out at sometime, and he decided that that time would be today. His food supply was getting low and he needed to find some pigs, cows and chickens. Steve opened the door slowly and peered out. He looked around. The coast was clear. Steve crept out and began to walk, looking for the right mobs.
