Tick Tock, There goes the Clock



In the days of the old, a man named Steve lived In a beautiful house, Lined with stone and walled with birch wood. In this house Steve lived alone, with hardly any company. He had no knowledge of what was about to happen in his life.


Steve traveled out into the town, then to the forest, to gather some wood and stone for a project he had been working on. As he gathered he’d heard noises coming from a nearby cave, he decided it was nothing to be concerned about. Once he collected a good amount he headed back to his house.


As he traveled on he heard a roar, he rushed to the city in pursuit of answers and safety. When he arrived to the village he noticed that all the buildings were empty, it was dead silent with a tint of dark.


He looked up towards the sky, he was shocked to see it was sunset.


Confused he had felt only the need to go home, and so he did. He felt bad for not trying to find out why everyone was gone, but he was too tired to turn around. Once arriving home he had gone upstairs to his bed and slept. Later on the night he heard noises outside, followed by a bang on his door. “Who is it?” he called down excitedly, hoping for a visitor, all he heard was a groan.


Annoyed he groaned and went downstairs. He had fallen back at the sight of a black eyed green creature hitting his door. He frantically looked for a weapon, after searching he found he had no weapons, so he quickly blocked his doorway.


The next morning he woke to an array of groans, and a broken door. He looked outside to find a bunch of zombies and a few skeletons burning to death in the sunlight. He went out and picked up the bones left by dead skeletons. After all the bones were taken he decided to head for the village, hoping for a decent price on the bones.


When he arrived to town he saw a weird creature, it had a big sagging nose, a unibrow, and its arms were conjoined. Confused he approached it cautiously and asked “What and Who are you? Why are you here!?”.


It made a strange noise and offered some raw meat for an emerald, He rejected Feeling appalled for some reason.


He went to the library to look for answers, on his way he wanted to find another human, he was determined to. As he searched he wanted to cry, but instead he yelled as loud as he could “HELLO!? ANYONE!?!?” all he heard were the strange noises the creature had made.


When he arrived to the library he sat at a table and cried, he cried for the others gone, the small social life he had, and he only wanted to see a human at this point. When he had stopped crying, he felt extremely determined to find others, and searched all the books he found.


He found a book on the Clock of Realms, inside he read that every millennium a man or woman would be taken from their world and taken to a clone world consisting of different creatures and natives. Steve felt horrified at the thought of it, but he knew that it was undoubtedly what had happened. He knew he was alone in this world.


 


Chapter 2


Why me?


The man formerly known as Steve, left his name behind, Because he felt it had no use anymore.


That day a man had the decision to leave the realm in death or stay in hoped of an escape.


 


Steve didn’t want to die, but did at the same time. Wondering what to do he decided to go on with life and search for an escape. He went home and fell asleep. That night he had a dream, in his dream he had been falling through a tube that showed everything in known existence in his old world, then things he had seen in this new one.


Steve woke up to see himself lying in the middle of a snowy forest. Cold and confused he stood up to see a cavern ahead. With a stiff body he forced himself to the cavern, thinking to himself “I need to eat something, maybe by chance ill find food, anything’s possible.”.


As Steve entered the cave it became warmer, his body returned to its normal state. In his descent he heard a strange noise, he saw a cobblestone wall on the path he took, he hoped for a person.


As Steve started to break down the cobblestone, his hunger overtook him, throwing him to the ground. Steve forced himself to continue on, he broke a block of cobble showing him a dark room.


Steve knew he hadn’t found anyone, just a land formation. In that second ashes started to violently shoot from a block in the middle of the room, Steve looked at the block intensely. The next second a monster had appeared from thin air, frightening Steve to a point where he fell back. Steve was startled, but had noticed a chest on the other side of the room, Steve had found this not only a chance for food, but a chance to learn to fight.


Steve stood up, took down a second cobblestone block and used his fist to hit back the green creature which stood before him. Steve thought he had to fight, and he had no intention of stopping. Steve took his opportunity to defeat the green creature while it was preparing to attack.


After the creature that once scared him was dead, he tried to collect the block at the middle of the room, he failed and it was gone in an instant. Remembering the chest he opened the chest and saw loaves of bread! He took the bread and took a bite, the solid crunch of the crust, and the soft, warm, delicate inside had amazed him, it was the greatest bread he had ever had before!


After he ate what he felt was an adequate amount, he thought of how did he get to this place, where this place is, but most important, why him? He felt that he didn’t have time to answer those questions currently, he needed a proper shelter.


Chapter 3


The Clock


He had his old house back after a course of days, but something wasn’t right. He searched his memories for the one thing he didn’t add, he suddenly remembered “My project, of course!” he said happily. He got to work on the basement he was working on.


He dug down 5 blocks and started to dig out the area, when he fell through a hole. He looked up and saw a big flat wall with a golden trim and an iron base, it shined as bright as the sun from the torchlight, the only problem he felt, was, the 1x2 hole at the bottom middle. The amazing structure of the wall resembled that of a clock, it all flashed back to him in an instant, he suddenly knew.


A man walked out of the hole at the bottom, with eyes of gleaming white, he bared an almost exact resemblance to Steve. Steve wanted to question who he was, but only his mind worked, though Steve didn’t ask, the man answered. “My name is ChiBon, though it is not relevant. Steve I am the god of this realm. it’s name? originally it was Markus’ Project, such a bland name, it soon after was Mica Project, but its final name was Minecraft. So simple, So true, because it is truly just the start of a new world, but to create this world, you must Mine and Craft, and build your civilization, for now your alone, but I may bring other to help you create this world. This world is an opportunity to create your vision, so do it.”.


ChiBon, to this world a god, in the blink of an eye left Steve and took the clock with him, leaving Steve with all his questions, but also with hope of another person. Steve knows he has to use this chance well, but will he, or won’t he, if he meets another, will they work together, or fight? Truly the decision is yours.


For you are the next generation of his world.
