The Real Minecraft By Percyous and some of his brothers Percyous' POV As soon as I walked into the tavern the sounds of laughter and shouts stopped as everyone turned to take a good look at the newcomer. Me. In response to their glares I simply pulled my hood lower over my head and took a seat at the bar. When the others were satisfied that I was a nobody they simply turned back around and wnt back to what they were doing. "What would you like sir?" The bartender asked as he walked up to me. "Some water and a well-done porkchop please." I replied knowing full-well that I didn't have enough cash to pay for the food, and this bar was one of the majority of shops that didn't take item trade as currency. This world ran on money, and I was broke, atleast at the moment. As the bartender walked away I quickly scanned my surroundings until I found the one I was looking for. Perfect. I stood and slowly began to make my way to a table that seated a small gang of thieves. Agian the bar stopped and watched as I drew my stone sword as I continued to advance. "Hahaha! Another one eh? And with stone? Take him out boys." the obvious leader of the theives order was immediadly followed as the others at the table stood, drew their iron swords, then attacked. I sidestepped the first attack and gave him a wound in his left leg inorder to keep the first attacker down, the second attacker recieved a blow with the butt of my sword to his nose, and the third recieved a simple gash in his right side and a kick in the back sending him to the floor. "That all you got?" I asked as I put my stone sword to the leader's throught. "I-" He never got to finish his sentence due to me giving him a single punch to his face that knocked him out. Instead of leaving I pulled a book from my cloak, slid it over to the bartender as I sat back down for my meal. "He's worth 100$, that should take care of my food. Keep the change." I then ate, got up, and left.
This is written by me, the brother who took over my account a few days after I got it, and some of my other brothers who will help occasionaly. This is going to take the place of the original Minecraft story that was being written. This will also take place/ kinda overlap with the server my bro plays onthe most. Also, this isn't made in the blocky world as you can probobly tell, mods won't be mentioned, we'll just add em. Oh, and if two people ask nicely then I'll tell you what the plot was going to be for the original (not gonna be the same as this one)
Percyous' POV As I entered the new town I stopped to check my bounty-hunting book (The book was full of all the current people with prices on their heads, many of the pages were ripped out due to the bounty being cashed in by me or someone else.) To see who I should go after next. "Too weak.... Too far.... Not enough pay..... were the words that I found myself saying as I flipped through the book looking for a worthy target. Then one page caught my eye, I stared at the profile of who could possibly be my next mark. First I turned and checked the sack that hung at my side hidden by my cloak. After I checked my resources I shut the book, put it back into the sack and began walking as I said with a smile "Perfect." "Excuse me sir, do you take item trade?" I asked the elder-blacksmith. "Of course! I guess I'm a bit old fashioned eh? There was a time when money was worth less than dirt in this kingdom..... Now you can barely get anything withought money.... Anyway, what do you need?" Was his response. "I would like for you to make me an iron sword, a diamond sword, and to repair my stone sword. Also a bow and 5 max orders of arrows." At my request the blacksmith let out a whistle and asked "What are you going to pay me with?" "I was thinking these." As I answered him I brought seven diamonds out of my sack and placed them on the counter. We both stood there in silence for a few seconds before he suddenly said "Come back tomorrow at noon. Everything should be ready by then."
Thanks, probobly wouldn't still be writing if it wasn't for my brothers though... Those A-holes tricked me!
Jim's POV We walked down the cobblestone pathway just as the last light of day disapeared over the horizon. Each of us wore stone swords at our sides except for our boss who instead of wearing normal clothes was clad in full iron armour, to top it of our boss had an iron sword instead of stone like the rest of us had. We were in a part of town where there were nothing but the foundations and skelitons of houses yet to be built, but there was also a secret entrence to the cave where we conducted all buisness. We always arrive in these parts after sunset so that there's no light and the night lights haven't been turned on yet, then we hole ourselves up inside the caves until just before dawn when we sneak away. It was the perfect set up. As we walked past a lamp suddenly we all heard a voice say "Hello" in a polite manner. Immediatly we all drew our bows and notched our arrows forming a circle around the boss. The one downside to our plan was that we couldn't see either. "We only have one more minute...." I heard the guy next to me whisper as we despretly tried to see around us. "Good." was the only answer that came from boss. I immediatly knew what was being implied. We had to stall. "Who are you?" I lowered my bow, steped foreward and asked boldly. After a few seconds of silence the voice replied "I know what you are about to attempt to do, no worries. The lights will be on in...3....2......1" Almost before the last number left his mouth the lamps flickered to life and revealed a man sitting cross-legged on one of the lamp posts. The man wore a circular hat, a black cloak, along with three swords, a bow with a pack of arrows, and what looked like a knife. "What a pleasant surprise. Just who I was looking for." The man said as he slowly climbed to his feet and closed the book he had been reading and tucked it into his cloak. "It's a pleasure to meet you, miss Iron Maiden." he said with a mock bow "Now, if you don't mind, I have a bounty to collect."
Percyous' POV The words had barely left my mouth before I jumped down from my spot ontop of the street lamp and next to one of the goons. The first weapon I used was my dagger, a quick stab to his heart and a shove backwards took care of the first one. However, the second one managed yo dodge my attack so instead I went for his legs and managed to cause him to fall to the ground with a loud THUD coming from his head as the others advanced. Seeing that I was out matched I quickly put away my dagger, drew my bow, and sent arrows into the lamps causing them to go out. Perfect. Under the cover of the darkness I managed to take out the remaining eight goons of my target before I was suddenly attacked from behind. I made a roll to the side and barely managed to escape the would-be fatal blow. My hand gripped at my stone sword's handle as I scanned the night hoping to catch a glimps of my target. I heard the sound of breathing coming from my right abd managed to block an iron sword before it sent my head rolling. I was down to my diamond sword, my stone and iron swords were gone. I had used half of my arrows but in turn had destroyed my opponent's armour. The only thing remaining was her iron sword. Easy. I leapt foreward with a stab only to be countered by a sidestep and a swing. I turned intime to dodge the blade then sent a kick to her stomech. She stumbled back and into a house's skeloton. She was trapped. " The way I see it, you have two options....." I said as I put my sword to her throat.
Sorry, this update feels and Is a bit rushed plot-wise Percyous' POV "Here." I said as I tossed an apple to the blond woman who stood next to me. She quickly reached out and caught it even though her wrists were bound together. She forgot herself quickly took a bite, however when she remembered the cercumstanses she stoped, looked up at me angrily and wiped away the juice that dribbled down her chin. "Its not poisened." She continued to stare so I gave a sigh and said "I won the fight. You lost. Deal with it. I have to eat, and you're a criminal. It's only natural that justice is served and I get enough money to settle down for a while. Now get moving, unless you want to get caught out here after dark we need to hurry, get to the next town, and find an inn." "That money doesn't belong to you." She finally said. "If you want to eat and sleep somewhere warm then yes, it does. Otherwise, I'm broke." "Pathetic....." "Your first words and it's THIS? Your manners impress me Iron Maiden." she simply scowled and began walking down the road and towards the next town. We sat in the inn each of us eating a steak. She also had bread and water. I simply had some water with it. "I don't want to go to the capital. Release me." she suddenly said as she looked up from her food. "Doesnt work like that." I said then continued to eat. "What about a deal?" "Make a good one and I'll be all ears." I could tell she had launched herself deep into thought. We had left the gates a few minutes ago when she suddenly stepped infront of me and blurted out "You only do this for the money, right?" "Yes." "How much am I worth?" "500,000$." "Ill help you collect 1000000 before we reach the capital. If I do, you let me go. If I do not then I am at your mercyz" I swear she could have seen the cash symbol appear in my eyes as I took a quick calculation. It was a win-win. Unlease she escaped..... That could be dealt with. I drew my iron dagger and held it infront of me with the blade facing the ground and the hilt facing the sky as I began "I swear by notch that if you complete your end of the bargain I will let you go and I will not betray you in any way." relizing what I was doing she also took hold of the hilt and said "I swear by herobrine that I will do all I can to uphold my end of the bargain and I will not attempt to run away or betray you in any way." at this we took the hands that weren't on the hilts and clasped them together and put our foreheads together sealing the deal. I stepped back, drew my sword, and cut the string in a single swipe, then I tossed her the dagger. "It is a gesture of trust. We are bound now. By the ruler of light and the ruler of dark, our fates are intertwined now and forever." I held out my hand "My name is Percyous. And yours?" she reluctantly took my hand and said "You may asdress me simply as Titania."
Since we aren't NEARLY as far as we want to be (our bad) on Christmas eve (we will try for 12:00 sharp) we will post the first part of a two part upload of a Christmas special upload thingy. We will also try to post atleast two uploads before then (both might be tonight) but the two we have been brainstorming on and planning will not be on Percyous and "Titania" Also called "The Iron Maiden". The first one will be a flashback from a new character. The second will be in a very rare place to find based on two VERY HUGE minecraft "Celebraties". One of them you have a good chance to meet. The other is so rare he's just a legend. Or is he? In that upload you'll see the greatest killer in minecraft and his mount. How this turned into a preveiw-comercial I have no idea.....
Flashback James's POV The cold streets.... They becomes towards me.... Whispering for me to lay down and take a permenant nap.... I could leave this world and leave behind my dirty-shredded clothes, my hunger..... My weariness.... All of it could go away..... All I had to do was sleep...... "Brother....." The feint moan coming from the feintlu smiling face on the nearly limp body that I half dragged half carried brought me back to reality. "Yes?" I replied with a fake smile as we continued to move foreward and I masked my thoughts. I couldn't die. Not yet. Not while I had him depending on me. With his arm around my shoulder and me supporting him we continued down the street as many stopped to stare at the two beggers walking down the street. This sight wasn't seen much in the city since at night those caught sleeping outside were taken to the outer wall district of the city. It would take an entire day to get back here from that place. We didn't have enough strength left to make that trip. We have to keep moving..... I felt my vision blurring as we aproached our destination.... Just a little farther...... I told myself multiple times. "Brother....." He moaned agian, "We... We're almost there.... Just hang in there..... I can handle it... It's not that far" I said already knowing what he was going to say. "Leave me behind. I'm a burden..... I'm slowing you down.... You can make it if you leave me behind...." He had said it multiple times on the trip, but Im not giving up now. I can make it... We were a few feet from the door when my legs suddenly felt as if they were about to shatter. "No! Just... A little... More....." We managed to make to to the pressure plate which opened the door... We didn't male it two steps inside before I collapsed. "We're here Brother..... We.... Made it..... Percyous...." I found my vision fading, but not before I saw many people rush to our sides. But I also saw someone pick up the two books that had fallen out of Percyous's hand.... I slipped away from consciousness with a smile. I had done what I set out to do..... I was free. They say he haunts minecraft.... They say he runs it from a kingdom made of gold blocks far above the sky limit. They say he built the nether himself. They say he rides the enderdragon. They call him the ruler of minecraft. He is....... (Find out next update!)
