Chapter 3-


My poison dwindled away slowly, and in the middle of the night, panic struck. I heard a large hoard of zombies charging. They charged right past my newly claimed house and kept on going, I exited to see what was going on, but they were rounding the mountain by the time I gathered the courage to look outside. I looked at the field separating me and the cave. There were barely any monsters, so I decided now would be as good of a time as ever to go into the cave. As I sprinted there I grew so hungry I just couldn't go anymore. I wolfed down a steak and hid behind a tree. That was the last steak I had. I looked to my left and noticed 2 chickens happily pacing about, all I saw was cooked chicken with legs. There were now monsters aplenty, but I needed the chicken ever so badly. I looked to the left, a spider was right near me. It looked absolutely disgusting. Its fangs dripped with venom, its hairy legs on edge. As the blocky arachnid's four eyes scanned the spring, I knew I couldn't kill the chickens without being noticed by it, and then I'd have an entire field full of monsters on my hands. I tried to think of a plan. Then I thought of a seemingly perfect plan, I would throw my sword at the spider and kill it. Then I would be eating chicken happily in a cave with no monsters wanting to eat me. It's go time. I aimed my sword seemingly perfect at the Spider's head, pulled back, and released. My wooden blade shot through the air and reached its destination, which was a spider's furry face. It was in pain. It layed down and wailed at the weapon lodged in its head. All the monsters looked at it, followed it with their eyes and eye holes. It was absolutely crying, the chickens were startled. They were running away! I swiftly ran to the spider, removed the sword, and finished it off. I looked up, and surveyed the field. The monsters glared. They didn't move. Time was frozen. Then they all attacked, about 7 monsters, Creepers, Spiders, Zombies, and Skeletons all charging. I tried to be stealthy, not be seen, but now, about half of them do. My first instinct was to grab the chickens and run. Grab the chickens, and just run. I was running through a swampy field being chased by monsters while holding two chickens in both arms. They were freaking out, totally panicing, attracting as much attention as possible. This is the exact opposite of what I wanted. I jumped into the cave, and completely stumped myself in the shallow water, it looked alot deeper from the top. I dropped the chickens and stumbled over to a wall, the monsters gaining. I slowly backed into a corner. The mob of mobs coming closer and closer. Then I got it, I built a small wooden plank wall in front of myself, I had a small cocoon of safety. The monsters clawed, screamed, hissed, and shot at me. What am I going to do? What can I do? What are these things? What am I? Who am I? I'm Zeesguys. How do I know that? Why in the world do I exist? What even is this? Blocks? Survival? SinglePlayer? WHAT IS SINGLEPLAYER HOW DO I EVEN KNOW THESE THINGS? I dropped with my back against the wall, and slowly slid down. I grabbed my hair, and looked up at the close ceiling. The millions of questions, concerns, and thoughts that rushed through my head drowned out the noises of the monsters screaming for my flesh. It's chaos, this world, running from monsters... Killing innocent animals for nothing but the purpose of survival... Survival... Like a monster.. I kill monsters... I looked at my watch, and focused at my sword. Once I had it in hand it took it and put its sharp, splintery point to my chest, I pushed in towards me, I could feel the tip about to bulge into my chest, I pushed harder, and harder. WAIT WHAT? What am I doing? Is this suicide? No, it can't be. These monsters have brought me so insane that I nearly killed myself, this, it made me confused. Again, I listened outside. The monsters were growing more aggressive it seems. I can't stay in here much longer, it's... Maddening ... I tunneled up to the surface, slowly but surely. More thoughts overcame me, monsters, food, chickens, and also What were those zombies doing earlier? That one really got me. I sat, and thought... Then I must have blacked out in insanity... I'm the real monster.
