"Ugh..."
Steve groaned as he tumbled out of his red bed for the 3rd time that day. His stomach was throbbing with pain as he attempted to recover from the arrow that impaled him before he died and re-spawned.
"I'll never get used to this."he complained, "Not even after my 6 years trapped in this place I can't help feeling sick after I come back from the dead and not be some zombie that feels nothing!"
Steve stumbled to his feet and trudged to his chest to grab his spare iron tools and armour. He rushed to the door and flung it open. He stumbled down into the cave that lay beside his wooden house and tried to trace the steps that he took before his 'unfortunate' event with a sharp-shooting skeleton archer.
"C'mon, c'mon, c'mon...." Steve muttered, "Don't let all that Diamond equipment go to waste...."
He pulled himself to a brake as he reached a familiar area. He peeked around the corner to discover a bundle of items floating on the blocky, stone floor. Steve was about to dash out into the open when he noticed a skeleton with a drawn bow guarding his equipment. He froze and looked at his items again. If he could quickly grab his diamond armour and equip it, he might be protected enough to face the archer. With his plan in mind, he rushed out to his items and snatched them up. Before the skeleton could fire its arrow, Steve had equipped his diamond armour. Now, a simple skeleton wouldn't be able to do any damage to him. Then he realised a fatal error in his plan. His armour was worn out, and might only take a few more hits. The skeleton shot a barrage of arrows flying at the broken chestplate.
"Oh crud" he mumbled as he was stuck by Déjà vu. Steve flung his arms up, hoping to block the attack.
'ZIPPPP!' An arrow carved it's way through his right arm.
"ARGH!"
Steve bit his lip as he prepared to take another arrow to the arm. Suddenly, there was a clattering noise as a short, blurry figure flew in front of him, and deflected the arrows. The next thing Steve knew, the skeleton was defeated, on the floor, with arrows impaled into it.
"Wh...wh....who....are you?"
The figure hid in the shadows. Then, slowly, but surely, it took a step out into the light.
