Poofless: The Mob And The Human

A Name?

Chapter 2: A Name?

Preston's P.O.V.

I glanced around my cave looking for an escape when I knew there would never be one when I saw water rush towards me when I was in the lava,

I screamed as the water engulfed me and the sizzling spread across my body.The pain spread through my chest and down to my arms and legs but stopped at my feet and lava.

My eyes glowed and the water was taken away by a man who was mining diamonds.I almost just died.....I walked towards him but he was too busy mining to notice me.

I smiled at him and started to walk out of the cave sadly.Maybe he would follow me I had no clue but all I knew was that I now could not survive here. I wasn't even supposed to be in this dimension anyways!!!!

~FLASHBACK!!!~

My mother sent me away from the Nether Fortress to go and play for a while with the ghasts while she talked to the wither skeletons and we came upon this obsidian thing that was glowing purple.

I went through to hide because we were playing hide and seek but when I looked back the obsidian purple thing was gone and I was trapped.

I cried as I banged on the stone walls of the cavern I was summoned in and fell into the lava that was in the cavern.

I stayed there ever since and now it was gone so I couldn't live there anymore......I was now officially homeless....

~FLASHBACK OVER!~

I stood there for a moment collecting my thoughts when I heard footsteps coming my way and fast. Scared and not sure what to do I started walking fastly towards what I think was called the surface.

I climbed through the cavern and grabbed and edges I could grab walking out quickly but the footsteps just kept coming closer.

I saw a light and burst out of the cave running and saw another mob outside the cavern on the top of it so I went on all fours next to it and tried to disguise as whatever it was.

It was brown and white and kept saying mooooo but I had no idea what it meant so I tried to copy him but all I did was hiss like sizzling lava....I did not sound like him.

I saw the man rush out of the cave looking around and I took in his features, he wore a blue hoodie, black stretchy pants nice brown hair and big brown eyes.

I sighed looking him over and over again and tried speaking to him but it didn't work. I saw him back up with a feared expression on his face and looked at the mob next to me.

He was scared of this thing? All it said was moo! And that wasn't even scary! Ghasts and Blazes!!! Now those were things to fear especially when we go swimming in the lava they stalk your every move.

"What are you afraid of?" I tried to speak to him but he didn't understand me. I tried again.

"Don't you speak Nether Tongue?" I asked him but he just kept looking at me.

I leaned in to slap him across the face to snap him out of his tance but fell over right into his arms. He let go of me and I growled at the sudden outburst of jagness and he quickly picked me up again.

I laughed as I realized what was going on....He wanted to cuddle with me because he was so scared of the other mob!

"It's ok.....That mob only says moo!" I comforted him

But he looked me over and I remembered.......Oh yeah....He couldn't understand me... I looked him in the eyes sadly and my vision turned brighter flickering like a candle.

I smiled at him but he didn't smile back. I growled at the rudeness again and he tried putting me down on the ground again but I growled even louder and he quickly brought me back to his chest causing me to laugh.

Oh I get it! HE WAS AFRAID OF ME!!! I giggled causing the man to look at me weirdly and the mob just judged me as if to say freak but I shrugged it off.

He raised me high above is head and I squealed at the sudden movement, why was he moving me? Did he want me to fly!?!?! I pretended to flap my arms like wings but he didn't notice.

"What's your name?" The man asked me and I froze.

A name?........What was a name?..........I had a species but I never had a name before.....Maybe it was what the mob on top of the cavern was called.

"Hello name!" I called out to the mob but it completely ignored me....Darude!!!

I really wanted to talk to him but I had no clue how!!! Oh WAIT!!! HOLD THE NETHER!!! I GOT IT!!! I closed my eyes and mind linked him like my mother showed me and luckily he accepted.

'I don't have a name....' I confessed

He looked at me bewildered, has he never mind linked before? Apparently not....Oh well! Now he has............ Yay!

'Oh......That's alright let me think of one...' He responded..Yay he responded!!!!

'Ok....UMMMMMM!!!' I pretended to think of one

But I didn't even know what it was and I saw him laughing at me, did he realize I didn't know what one was.?

'What about.....Jerome?' He suggested

'NOO!!!!!!!!' I rejected and he laughed at my rudeness

'Mitch?' He suggested

'NOPE!!' What the heck was a Mitch anyways?

'Umm.....Choco?' He guessed again

'NUH UH' I denied again

'Well then what about......Preston?' He suggested and I smiled at the name.

Preston........I liked that name! I nodded my head and he smiled at me...But was that a species they identified me as...Is that what they would call me?

I stared at him wondering, did he have a name? I think he does if not then why would I have one? I'm pretty sure he has one.

'What's your name though?' I asked him and he face palmed.

'Oh sorry My name Is Rob, Robert Latzki' He introduced himself and I smiled.

'Well hello Rob, I'm Preston, the mob you just named mere moments before.!' I greeted smiling goofily.

'Your such a person Preston..you know that?' He chuckled.

'No...I didn't....But, HEY WHAT IS THAT SEXY THING!?!?!' I squealed when I saw a prickly green spike looking cutely towards us.

I dove out of his arms doing a back flip before I landed and rushed over to it hugging it with joy. It was spiky, but that didn't effect me...

It was beautiful....

"That's a cactus Preston" Rob explained.

Even it's name was beautiful...I loved it! I grabbed it and started dragging it to Rob with my teeth wagging my tail happily as I came closer to Rob who backed up uneasily.

"UHhhhhh...Preston? Cactuses hurt humans..." Rob warned.

Awww.....That's horrible! Now he can't even hug the cactus! THAT SUCKS!!!! Oh well. He picked me up and carefully put the cactus in his storage thingy and walked towards a village.

What was he doing.......
