I sat up quickly, and the air felt fresh on my face. My sunglasses fell into my eyes and codes and cheats and other things scanned in like how I programed my Minecraft to run. I stood up and I looked around, everything was blocks and the world formed around me. I looked at my hands, blocks. Well, shit. I already knew what's about to go down. A loud scream sounded and a Nathaniel looking steve ran at me. I dodged him and he crashed into the tree behind me.
"Crap!" He shouted as he made contact, then fell to the ground. I looked around, an unfamiliar sever. I started to wander when I saw the others.
"Good damn, that actually hurt." Jordan said leaping off a tree and landing coolly.
"Alright! Minecraft all day everyday!" Jace cheered punching me in the arm.
"I still have my bow, sweet!" Beth said happily.
"Wtf just happened?" Edward asked confused,"Has anyone seen Mindy!?" Edward said looking around startled.
"No jokes." Mindy said. I looked around when I saw her stuck in a tree, "I don't want to here anything."
"Well I guess Mindy wants to 'leaf'!" Nathaniel joked. Mindy ripped an apple off the tree and chucked it at Nathaniel's head.
"Let's collect some wood." I said rubbing my hands together. I went to Mindy The Tree and I took a swing at the eye height block. I pulled back quickly and held my hand close, it stung like hell.
"You okay sailor?" Jordan asked. I gave him a questioning look,"You were cussing all thirteen, maybe even more."
"Oh." I looked at the tree and my slightly bloody fist.
"Like this bro." Nathaniel said. He went to a tree and beat it steadily; thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump. When finally the block broke and minimized. He collected it and tossed it to me. I caught it clumsily and winced when it touch my possibly broken hand.
"Just mix 'em together and you get a crafting table." Mindy said trying to pull herself out of the tree.
I looked at the wood block in my hand and it turn into four wooden planks. I gasped loudly and felt like a noob. I stared at them intently, then they turned into a crafting table. I gasped again and this time others gasped. I placed it down and I felt kinda powerful. Beth ran forwards and jumped on top of the crafting table, then layed down.
"Why do you lay on tables?" I asked her. She shruged and fell asleep.
"Hey guys!" Jordan shouted,"I got wood!" I let out a small laugh and carefully moved Beth.
"What should we build?" I asked lookin at my friends.
"A house." Edward said looking at the sun,"In real time, it's about 5:00. The sun will go down soon, about 4 minutes."
"Fuck!" I grabbed the wood and made wodden planks, 2 stacks. I built up a basic house with a flat roof big enough for us all to fit.
"Bro." Nathaniel said. I glanced at him,"Will we survive?" His eyes red and tired. I looked at my hands then back at him. I grabbed his hand and locked our fingers.
"If we can play, we can live." I said.
"But it's different." Nathaniel said looking at me through tired slits,"What if it hardcore?"
"Least likely." I said sitting him down,"Wouldn't it be normal; cause its normal."
"But its so real, like real life," tears built up in his eyes and stared at the ground,"You die in real life and don't come back, like our pare,"
"Hey," I turned his face towards me," We promised to be strong and not mention... What happened. Just go to sleep and we'll figure out everything that needs to get done." I sat down next to him and he rested his head on my shoulder. I glanced over my other shoulder to see beth staring at the door with her bow readied. I lened my head against Nathaniel's and fell asleep.
