"Mike, you look like a porquipine."
"Steve, I can't lie either, you too."
We literally ran through a forest filled with skelotons, while being shot at. Good thing this armor kept me safe.
So we just continued on, healing as we went, and it was pretty peaceful.
"I guess Herobrine isn't hunting us anymore."
"Steve, you really believe that?"
"Sure, we haven't seen any mobs in a while, and we are almost arriving at that Inn you mentioned."
"You never know, someone is probably waiting to kill us right now..."
Call it bad luck, or destiny, right after Mike said that, we got ambushed.
By a group of OBSIDIAN ARMOR WEARING WITHER SKE-LE-TONS!
Yeah just had to emphasize that.
Anyways, their leader, a 3 block tall wither skeloton with a giant axe came up to us. We were surrounded by wither skeletons with horses, flying skeleton birds, and these wolfs made out of bones.
"YOU THERE! BY THE ORDER OF HEROBRINE, WE ARE TO CAPTURE YOU BOTH. FAILURE TO COMPLY WILL LEAD IN YOUR DEATH!"
"Okay, Steve, we should run now."
"THERE IS NO ESCAPE FOR YOU! WITHERING KNIGHTS OF THE OBSIDIAN ORDER, KILL OR CAPTURE THOSE TWO!"
"Steve...Get back to back now!"
And they charged at us. Mike chopped of the leg of one of the horses, making one of those knights topple down. I just stared and gripped my sword.
"Steve! Do something!"
"I'm more of the builder type, not a fighter!"
"Look, just swing your sword like this, and then SWING IT NOW!"
I swung, right when a skeleton wolf jumped at me. I knocked it down.
Wow, I must be really good at this.
Then I saw Mike take down 2 more wither skeletons.
Okay, maybe I need to do a bit more better.
So I started swinging like crazy, chopping and slicing as much as I could. The wither skeletons kept charging at us, thinking they could hit us at least once.
Nope. Mike and I were too good for them.
The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
Then they realized that their strategy of "let's go charge at 2 random players" wasn't working. So they fell back and brought out crossbows. Dirty cheaters.
Mike, had a shield. I did not. And as a result, I go hit in the leg, and their arrows were coated with Wither VII.
Yeah, and my world turned dark and my health bar started turning black. I felt my body being withered away, and the last word before I died was Mike yelling my name.
Now, you readers are probably wondering,"How is Steve writing this?"
Even I'm confused still.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I opened my eyes again.
And then saw my body lying in front of me.
Woah, this is so weird. It reminds me of those times I played skyblock and I died, and then became a spectator...
Can I fly?
Woah I can fly! SO cool an-
Oh right, I'm dead, and now Mike is going to die...this is sad...
I thought it was all over for me, and I would have to live as some kind of ghost.
Hello Steve.
"Wha-who is this?"
Shhh. You have been gifted and cursed with a new ability.
"What is it?"
It is called "Corrupted Respawn."
"What does it do?"
Everytime you die, you may respawn again and again. Just be warned, this ability has consequences.
"And that is?"
Now, go back to your friend, and good luck. You're going to need it.
"Wait, you can't just do that! I need expla-"
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You monsters! You killed Steve!"
This was the first sentence I heard when I respawned. Mike and a wither knight were arguing. It was really weird, I felt like my body had become like, uhh, remerged? It was a weird feeling.
"Well, that Steve fellow was a noob, lets get the last guy wither comrades!"
"Oh, you are paying for this"
"We are not paying fo-what the...the human!"
"Huh? What do you mea-Steve? You're alive?"
I slowly stood up, and then started at everyone. I was still shocked I was alive. Then I felt a pain in my leg.
Right, forgot about the arrow in my leg.
I pulled the arrow out of my leg, and threw it at the wither skeleton that was insulting Mike. It hit him straight in the eye.
Okay, it actually hit him in the knee, but it would have been cool if it did hit him in the eye.
It was quiet for a few seconds. Then everyone started yelling.
"AAARGGGGH"
"Steve? How in the Overworld? How are you alive?"
"WHAT! WHAT IS THIS SORCERY! WITHER KNIGHTS! RETREAT! WE MUST REASSESS OUR ENEMY!"
And the remaining wither skeletons rode their horses and ran away.
We watched them run, and then Mike started at me for a long time.
"Want a healing potion?"
"Umm...I don't really feel like it."
"You don't want a healing potion? Whatever, you are healing anyways. Eat something!"
"Alright...uhhh...Mike...."
"Yes?"
"My entire inventory got wiped."
"Sigh...Steve, you are explaining EVERYTHING to me when we get to the Inn."
So we continued quietly, and reached the Inn later by nightfall.
