“Humanity Trapped in Minecraft: Chapter 4 – The Search” by Alex

Gathering everyone’s attention, Jackson pulled out a block of cobblestone and placed it on the ground, and jumped on top of it. “I know many of you are getting accustomed to being trapped in Minecraft, but not everyone in the world has played, and there will be people that need help,” Jackson explained. “I’m going to find anyone that needs help and bring them back here, and I was wondering if anyone will be willing to go with me to help.” Jackson looked around and saw that no one would speak up. He sighed. “I’ll go with you,” Max said. “So will I,” Someone said. Then about 20 other people offered to help. “Ok, anyone that’s not going to help needs to stay here,” Jackson said. “I need some of the experienced people to stay back and help watch over the inexperienced people. 15 of the experienced people nodded their heads and began to get everyone back into the community. “Alright, those of you who are with me, we need to go now!” Jackson said. Then Jackson turned and started running into the unknown, a group of 20 people behind him. Everyone in the party kept running throughout the day, slowing when needed to. Then everyone slowed to a walk. “Where did you get the idea to look for people who need help?” Max asked as he reached his friend’s side. “I was sitting on my bed when I saw the chat in my mind and everyone was calling out for help,” Jackson replied. “So are we going to set up camp soon or keep going?” Max asked. Looking up at the sun, Jackson saw that it was starting to get dark. “Everyone break camp,” Jackson commanded. This snapped everyone into motion, everyone starting to build one big shelter out of cobblestone. Drawing his sword, Jackson walked around looking for approaching mobs. Seeing none, Jackson sheathed his sword and began helping with the shelter. “Mobs incoming!” Someone yelled. Drawing his sword, Jackson charged towards the mobs, slashing at each one as they passed. One zombie tried to attack Jackson, but he was too fast. Dodging to the left, Jackson slashed at the zombie, causing it to flash red. Moving to the right, Jackson slashed at the zombie until it disappeared with a pop, dropping nothing but zombie flesh. A spider charged towards Jackson, but someone had shot at the spider with several arrows, making it disappear with a pop. Picking up the string, Jackson put it in his inventory then ran to a creeper that was trying to sneak up on someone. Slashing at the creeper, it turned to see who was attacking. It tried to detonate, but Jackson wasn’t letting it attempt to blow up. The creeper disappeared with a pop, dropping two pieces of gunpowder. Picking it up, Jackson continued to fight the mobs until there was none left. Sheathing his sword, Jackson went back to check on the shelter. Seeing that it was completed, Jackson turned around and yelled that the shelter was finished. Everyone then sheathed their weapons and ran to the shelter. As soon as the last person was in, Jackson closed the door and placed cobblestone behind the door so that if the zombies broke the door, they wouldn’t be able to get in. Jackson walked up and slapped the back of everyone that worked on the shelter. They beamed with pride. Everyone was exhausted from fighting and building the temporary shelter. When everyone got to a bed, they fell asleep instantly. When it was morning, everyone tore down the shelter and put the beds in their inventory. Continuing their trek, they came across four people who needed help. Joining the group, they kept looking for more people who may be alone or defenseless, until they saw an army of people in iron armor, each with an iron sword in hand. “Go back where you came from!” The leader of the army yelled. “We’re just passing through.” Jackson replied. “We are looking for anyone that might want to come with us.” “You’ve been warned.” The army leader said. “ATTACK!” This made everyone in Jackson’s group draw their swords, waiting for Jackson to tell them what to do. “Everyone start running,” Jackson commanded. “They outnumber us three to one.” Turning, everyone in the group started running, which caught the opposing army off-guard. “Make a u-turn and run around them.” Jackson said. Doing as told, they ran around the army and got a 30 block lead before the army started chasing them. Gripping his sword tighter, Jackson continued to run, hoping that someone had an army to help them. Seeing the army slowly closing in, Jackson prepared to start slashing at the incoming attackers.
