The Cave Dweller is slowly walking towards Mikey. It is making a really loud and annoying screeching sound.

Then suddenly, it dissapears. It reappears behind Mikey and punches him full force, Mikey is sent flying into a wall this time instead.

The entire cave shakes again.

Did it just copy my Ultimate Punch and Dusk Step? Mikey asks himself as he gasps for air.

The Cave Dweller appears right in front of Mikey. Mikey summons two Spectral Pirates right behind it. The monster doesn't notice them and starts punching Mikey. Mikey blocks all attacks while the spectral pirates aim their flintknocks at the Cave Dweller, and shoot them.

The Cave Dweller is hit and screams in agony. It quickly turns around, and kills the two spectral pirates. The Cave Dweller starts literally tending to its wounds by casting a strange spell on its own body.

Mikey realizes that he can't allow it to recover. He quickly regains focus and attacks the creature back.

The Cave Dweller jumps back and has to cancel its healing spell. The monster keeps backing off, while Mikey keeps chasing it.

It gets really annoyed by Mikey's persistence who just keeps pursuing it so that it can't heal up.

Mikey gains a perfect night vision and uses it to keep pursuing The Cave Dweller through the entire abandomed mineshaft.

Suddenly, it turns around, the monster is holding two flintknocks in its hands.

Did it copy the flintknocks from my pirates? What the hell?!

The Cave Dweller shoots and Mikey quickly ducks, dodging the bullets.

This allowed the monster to gain enough time to run away and hide. Mikey went right after it, and when he finally saw the Cave Dweller, it had already healed up.

"Damn." Mikey gets mad. The Cave Dweller no longer needs to run away, it charges right at Mikey.

Mikey uses Duskstep to get behind it and hit it in the head. The Cave Dweller turns around, grabs Mikey, punches him several times and throws him up against a wall.

The cave shakes once again, this time it really looks like it's about to collapse, but it doesn't.

Mikey gets attacked again, this time he blocks the monster's attack and counterattacks right after, the Cave Dweller takes a step back.

Mikey starts mining into a wall while placing blocks behind himself. At first, he thinks that he will get away, but the Cave Dweller starts making its own path into Mikey's tunnel at a faster rate then him.

(The Cave Dweller is following Mikey by literally breaking the stone with its hands)

Eventually, the Cave Dweller catches up. What Mikey sees is quite terryfying. The Cave Dweller had to break some of its bones in order to fit into Mikey's tunnel, which deformed its body.

Mikey dusk steps behind it and starts running away from the tunnel back into the mineshafts, the Cave Dweller follows.

Just when it is about to catch up, Mikey gets saved.

Mikey speeds up and outruns the Cave Dweller with ease. He also blocks off the entrance to the tunnel to slow it down.

Mikey uses the extra time to summon ten spectral pirates and make all of them aim at the entrance, meanwhile, Mikey goes further away and starts escaping the cave, which has actually started slowly collapsing from all the things that were happening.

Mikey's pirates got annihilated. The Cave Dweller started pursuing him at an insane speed. It got injured while killing Mikey's pirates, however its main goal right now is to kill Mikey, nothing else.

Mikey reached the path with all the warnings that he ignored. When suddenly, he heard an insanely loud scream behind him. He turned around and saw the Cave Dweller about one hundred meters away from him, the Cave Dweller sped up even more once it saw Mikey. At this point it had surpassed Christina's maximum speed.

Mikey escaped through the skull marked path and collapsed the entire path by kicking all the walls around himself, which made the cave collapse even faster. He then started running through the pickaxe marked path.

With only one goal in mind. Reach the cave's exit.

Just when the path started leading up, he heard the Cave Dweller behind him again. It somehow managed to dig its way through the collapsed path and caught up to Mikey again.

Mikey kicked down two support wooden slopes which resulted in the entire path becoming more unstable, as he kept running away, he kicked down more and more support slopes, until the cave's ceiling started collapsing as a whole.

The Cave Dweller caught up to Mikey...

Mikey quickly turned around.

Mikey punched the Cave Dweller and sent it flying. The cave started falling apart and Mikey just barely made it out of the cave before it COMPLETELY collapses.

The only thing Mikey heard was the cave's collapsion, and screams of the Cave Dweller.

The collapse of the cave made a huge mess around the entire area, and the sound of the collapse travelled all the way across a radius of atleast two kilometers. Pretty much the same as if a huge skyscraper collapsed.

Mikey looked around to check for any players with bounties in his area. He saw three players who aren't far away from him. Two of them were at the same place, their rankings were 677 and 820. They were probably fighting considering the fact that they were right next to eachother.

Then there was a third person, with the rank 18. This person seems to be heading straight towards Mikey.

"That's a high rank..."

"Hmmm."

Mikey places down a bed from his inventory and falls asleep in a few seconds, he's extremely exhausted.

For some reason he isn't worried about that person catching up to him.

(1 hour later)

Mikey wakes up on his ship, all alone. He's surrounded with several massive krakens who are all coming towards his ship. The krakens destroy Mikey's ship and he starts drowning.

Mikey wakes up drenched in sweat.

"Another nightmare." He says and looks at his hand which is marked with the Kraken's curse.

"I'll have to kill it as soon as possible." Mikey wipes the sweat off of his face.

He looks around, scanning for any nearby players. The number 820 dissapeared. Number 677 was still in the area. And number 18 was also nowhere to be seen.

"This is strange, why is everything so calm all of a sudden?" Mikey asks himself.

He then turns around and sees the collapsed cave.

(FYI, after the cave collapsed it did a really big damage to the surfaceaswell)

"I think I need to get out of here while I can." Mikey picks up his bed and starts walking away.
