Surprise! You're Engaged!
When Newbs Have Talons
Previous ChapterNext ChapterI smiled as I backed on top of a brick wall, the wall growing as I passed it. It was a gray stone wall, and it would be the outer defenses for my castle... maybe. I still hadn't decided if it was big enough. It was already bigger than any I had done before, but this time...
"ALEX, ONE OF THOSE STUPID GREEN DICKS IS CHASING ME!" I groaned as Gilda's plea for assistance tore me from my concentration, causing me to slip off the wall. I took a little fall damage, but the cold would do far more if I didn't make it back in fast.
"ALEX, I MANAGED TO DITCH IT, HOW DO I STOP TAKING DAMAGE AGAIN?!" I groaned in increased frustration as what had to be Gilda's 100th cry for help crossed my ears. I pulled my pixelated (but minidoku quality not filthy cazual vanilla) axe out of the creeper's head and continued my mad dash for the gate.
Almost. "ALEX!" I screamed in frustration as I dodged a nearly lethal creeper blast. The blizzard was growing stronger, and I had to get inside fast.
"GILDA, GO BACK TO THE KEEP! I'M COMING IN HOT." I dodged another arrow I turned the corner into the gate. Luckily, only two zombie had piled up there, and my axe dropped both fast. I closed the doors, but didn't stop to lower the iron gate. If there were human raiders, that would have been fatal, but the undead were too stupid for the gate.
Unfortunately, some of the scum buckets were already inside, and I grunted as the first arrow impacted my full plate armor. I didn't dare stop, the tower protecting the main entrance to the Keep standing proud before me, with the two small bridges over the small stream that gave our castle its drinking water flanking it on either side. The tower actually went over the stream too, the whole system meant to prevent foul arrows from falling into our drinking water. It also kept the water from clogging up with snow and freezing.
I passed to the left of the small tower, over the thinner of the two bridges. The main entrance to the castle just a few meters away now. I turned while keeping my pace, the armor doing little to stop my momentum as I...
ran face first into the iron doors.
"Sorry" I stumbled woozily into the castle as Gilda opened the front iron doors, letting me and the cold in, but shutting it before the demons of Aurora island could enter.
"Yo, what the fuck are you mumbling to yourself? Why are we even on this dingus shit server?"
I threw my headphones down in defeat and pushed myself away from the desk.
"What?! I was just asking why we play on a server with a stupid fucking frostbite pluginmajig! Why are we even building a castle?! It's not like anyone would ever besiege us!" I groaned in frustration as I stormed out of what had become our gaming room. She had been that way the entire time, refusing to leave me to play alone, but refusing to shut up too!
"Hey, some pussy sweat named Godz joined, should I kick him off?" Someone... joined? Someone joined?!
"NO!" I was back at my computer before a single dust mite landed on my keyboard.
Viking Hoof: hey, welcome to the rp server of Senpai craft. The admins let me do all the greetings.
Godz: So... Are you two it?
VikingHoof: Yeah, sorry about that. This server is still new, no one has touched it yet, but it has crazy amount of good plugins. Wait... are you from Fimfic?
Godz: yeah, was supposed to meet two... doh!
VikingHoof: Welcome!
My heart soared at the idea that one of my readers had joined. Sure one out of 153 is kind of disappointing, but it's better than nothing!
VikingHoof: Go ahead and TPA to me, I'll show you around.
To make along and hard to transcribe story short, he said yes, a few (4-5) other wonderful people came on (no more than two at a time), and we all had a great time.
It sucks that none of the rest of you showed up.
Sincerely-Alex
Author's Note
Sorry, but interacting with 5 people (never more than 3 at a time) in a Minecraft server (hard enough to write already) does not a story make.
If any of you wonderful people who showed want multi appearence chars outside of Minecraft, just PM and I'll be happy to I
Include them.
To be honest I was disappointed that only 20 of you had the courtesy of helping me solve my constant fears of being truly alone by responding.
But I'm over it! Promise full chapter within a week.
