Midnight Minecraft Adventures Episode 2


Dear Wal,

I spend the night with three testificates. I’ve continued to let them stay in my house. It’s nice to have company.
And no, it’s not that kind of company.
I put around harvesting wheat and then all of a sudden:
Skeleton: SNEAK ATTACK >:D
Me: D8 *RUN*
But then they catch on fire. I have my revenge.
Me: AHA, TIME FOR MURDER >8D
Skeleton: *jumps in water* You thought I was dead? YOU WRONG. I KILL YOU.
We’re at a stalemate now. I can’t approach without dying. They can’t leave the shade without dying. I have to be smart. Like Batman. So I try to come at them from above and get on the roof of a nearby house. One of them shoots me off the roof. Nope. Time to try a new tactic. I’ll come at them from behind.
On the way to doing that I get stuck in a hole with a testificate. I have to kill him in order to get out.
By the time I get across the village to kill the skeletons they’re gone. Bummer.
I spend the day getting wood and then part of the  night making tools. The bed won’t let me sleep because there are monsters nearby. I skillfully kill a skeleton from the inside of my house. I go to sleep to the sound of zombies pounding on my door. But I’ve blocked up the entrance so I’m safe. I’m getting pretty good at this.
I decide it’s time to go mining. I get to a huge, massively amazing hole and make my way down to the bottom.
Zombie: >:[:(]
Me: D8 *RUN*
I think I got maybe ten cobblestone on that run. So I still have a long way to go. I head back home and commence the building of an awesome tree fort in the nearby jungle. I build a wooden box. Woot. I spend the night in my box and then head out to harvest wheat and chop wood. Then I return to the village to sleep. The bed won’t let me sleep, because once again there are monsters nearby. This time it’s a pair of creepers. Like the idiot I am, I try to kill them through a window:
Me: DIE >:D
Creepers: :D *boom*
Me: D8 *RUN*
I escape the blast. But my house is decimated. I run into another house. All the doors are gone at this point. I hope that the testificates aren’t all dead. I need to get iron doors for them. If they can open iron doors.
It’s almost morning, and the windows of my new house are being swarmed by skeletons and spiders. And now there’s a zombie too. They’re all crowding around my blocked doorhole. I’M GOING TO DIE. I murder them through a one-block hole and live to tell the tale. I don’t see any testificates anywhere. I don’t they survived the night. There’s a skeleton in one of their houses. I kill it. Still now testificates. I move into the church. It’s the only safe place left.
With all my testificate friends dead, I’m starting to feel the pain of the loneliness of existence. I miss their strange, silent presence in the village. I think they died the night I spent in the tree. I wasn’t there to protect them. I failed them.
I go around planting trees and setting up a sugar cane farm. I found a hole closer to the village. I kill a creeper. Life has become monotonous. One thing I’ve learned is that recourses need to be close to where I live. It takes too run all over the place and harvest stuff. I spend most of my small amount of daylight traveling and not getting much needed materials.
I spend the night in the church and then decide to venture in the hole I found. Time to mine.
Skeleton: SNEAK ATTACK >:D
Me: HA, NOT THIS TIME >:D *murder*
Creeper: SNEEK ATTACK >:D
Me: D8 *run*
Creeper: MWAHAHAH >8D
Me: *falls in hole* AAAAAAAH
Creeper: I HAVE YOU NOW
Me: YOU THINK SO? YOU THINK SO?! *kills*
Me: 2 Creeper: 1
I spend another day gathering materials. Then I go back to mining. I’ve hit the jackpot. A huge vertical shaft leading down into the deep dark. I’m scared. This is it. Then I run out of torches. I mine some coal, and now thus armed with torches I start the descent. Glory! I’ve used up my last wooden pickax. I finally reach the bottom of the shaft. Dead end. But I can hear lava and a zombie. I follow the sound and mine through the wall into another cave.
I kill the zombie, and then:
Me: GOLD! 8D
There’s another zombie at the top of a tunnel. But he can’t get to me.
Me: MWAHAHAHA :D
Zombie: Eatface? D:
I build an elaborate tunnel under a waterfall to get to another cave. I find a zombie spawner and murder all the zombies before plastering everything with torches so they won’t spawn. I have booty from chests. I’m doing good until:
Skeleton: SNEEK ATTACK >8D
Me: D8 *nearly falls out of chair*
I’ve come around in a loop. I hate loops. This one is probably going to get me completely lost. But I press onward. I have a legitimate system of tunnels now, all thoroughly lit and monster free. My last pickaxe breaks. I use my last torch. Time to ascend. Me being me, I’m lucky enough to reach the surface when it’s night time. So have to wait it out in my tunnels. Thankfully I have an iron door, so the monsters can’t touch me. Crap. There’s a creeper right outside my door.
Me: AAAAAAAAAAH D8
Creeper: >:D *BOOM*
My evil plan to kill it didn’t work. But I didn’t die. So it’s still Me: 2 Creeper: 1. I return to the surface world, intact and alive. I lay out plans for a wall and build a new room onto my tree fort before returning to base for the night.
