Minecraft: The Terror Beneath the Stone
By Isaiah Roa

Prologue:
Origins

It's been thirteen days since The Day the Earth Moved, and the world's public was cut off from each other by the destruction. The geographic disturbance broke billions of power lines and severed millions of pylons, so electricity levels were sliced to fractions upon fractions of what the world was used to. It was as if we had reversed back in time itself, back to the caveman years where the hammer was the pinnacle of human engineering.
It's a time where we don't sell houses, we build them…we don't buy tools, we make them...and it's our skills at hunting, not our income, which decides how much we eat everyday.We survive on fire, sticks, and stones, and we defend ourselves against what's out there.
There are many things out there.
At first it was other people, merely scavenging for food, rioting in the chaos, but then…other things emerged from the mist. The bodies of those who perished returned, decayed, bloody, and hungry. No explanation came to light of how they came to be. Maybe it was the remnants of nature's attempt to cleanse the destructive human race, left behind to destroy the little bits and pieces that were left from the initial removal. But cannibalistic zombies roam the world at night, because the sun turns them to ash for the lack of the normal human resistance.
Along with that, we have to worry about the Mantulas, colossal black spiders with bloody red eyes, hungry, and free from the inner depths of the Earth. The quakes tore open caves of the deepest kind, unleashing these creatures upon the land to have us as a feast. There's even a ghost story, that one tear bore to deep into the Earth's rock, that it broke into the ceiling of Hell, and out climbed it's dwellers. Skeletons, ghostly monsters that we see hover in the night, and…something else.
Something lurks in the forest at night, crawling through trees like some kind of hideous bug. Stories tell of its skin being green, leathery, covered in veins, with long black claws, and sharp teeth of the same color. But the eyes…no one can ever describe the eyes…full of dread, full of barbarism, full of hunger. We only have one name for the creature that feasts on those who wander this world at night. It was found scratched on a tree by a girl, its earliest victim that we KNOW about…with her bare fingernails. Pure desperation for others to not suffer her fate was what allowed to her to endure the pain of digging the letters into the wood, and then being dragged into the deep. The letters that would spell the name…
CREEPER
The first chapter in a MineCraft-inspired fanfiction I'm starting to write. I'm not gonna post so much art on here as much as writing. I'm really getting more into it. I may also post this on my fanfiction.net page next to that GODAWFUL Sonic fanfic I tried to make. Looking back, it was disasterous, and an unintentional clone of AWAE by Janus. Sry 'bout that dude. That fanfic is awesome and mine tried to imitate it, but I give up on that story line, it's crap.
