What am I up Against? (A Minecraft novel) book one

Chapter 13 - Mobs Everywhere

Madelyn's POV
_______________

The three of us saw the mob. It was a typical zombie. It looked like the one in my dream.

"Be scared." It said. "He will come do you. You will not live."

He was talking to me.

"What if I killed you?" I asked.

"Then face the consequences." He said. "Wait, how do you understand us?"

"This deja vu again?" I whined. "Seriously?"

"Wait what?" Garrett asked.

"Long story for another time buddy." I replied. "You picked the wrong opportunity to ask."

Next thing I knew, A dozen zombies emerged from the dark hallway. We just found our way out of the stupid diamond area, and now our way out is blocked by freaking zombies.

"The great Herobrine is planning something on your little friend and he will do it if you don't come to him in six days." it growled. "Is that clear?"

I couldn't take it anymore. I growled back.

"Wolf hybrid!" He screamed. "A wolf hybrid in in the caves."

They started coming towards us. Garrett took out his axe, I drew my sword as Caitlin took out her bow and drew back an arrow.

Since when are they charging at us for that?

Right. Dream. Gosh dang it Madelyn!

Four zombies came from the right. Caitlin was shooting each one and successfully killing them. Garrett was chopping the heads off of ones coming his way. I had more to deal with.

"Why is it always me?" I asked.

I sprinted around to them and jumped over their heads, landing behind them. I drank a protection potion so I wouldn't get as hurt. My friends had no problem. But I did. They were mostly coming after me.

They turned around and limped towards me again. In swift motions, I separated their limbs from their bodies. I grabbed the nearest torch we placed before and set one on fire. It just staggered to the ground. The others looked at the burning corpse and then at me. Then, they shrugged and limped towards me. Really? You've got to be kidding me.

Now, more hordes were charging at me. I ran as fast as I could. However, it was a dead end. It gave me a great, but really stupid idea. When I was about to reach it, I started to walk up the side and then I made a back flip, landing on the other side behind the zombies. Then, in one swipe of my sword, I chopped six of them in half.

Next thing I knew, I felt hands pull on my arms. I looked back and there were Caitlin and Garrett.

"Let's get out of here, like NOW!" He screamed.

I turned to them. "Right behind you guys."

Eileen's POV
_____________

Why did I even go for it? I knew I couldn't kill him. There I was, tied to a pole in the nether. And there he was, standing in front of me. Herobrine is crazy if you ask me. He is a fool for wanting to hurt her.

"You won't win." I said.

"What makes you think of that?" Herobrine asked.

"Oh. I don't know." I said. "My friends will come for me and you will be beaten by Madelyn."

"Madelyn has no confidence to rescue you." He said. "She will be dead before she even reaches that pole."

"Well, I know damn well, she'll find a way." I said.

"And that plan will fail, as always. And she will fall into my grasp."

I couldn't take it. I squirmed in the ropes. I stopped when he took out his dagger. It was at his side and he was not afraid to use it. I gulped.

"Now." He said. "If you try to escape, and I catch you, nothing will be pretty."

"Fine." I mumbled.

"Good kitty. Now I want you right here. I have some business to attend to and you won't get in my way." He chuckled.

"Yea, go burn a village. Ruin people's lives." I sneered.

He walked away. I knew my friends will come back for me. They have six days left. I prayed. I prayed for Garrett and Madelyn to find their way here and rescue me and kill him off soon enough.
