Ani Was Writing

  4: New Seasons of Addiction   I felt the corruption from a distance, but never knew what it was.   "We always joked about it, but never thought the world we lived in would get corrupted like it did." Churro says during our usual monthly meeting.     At least it didn't get to the point of complete corruption. I thought, keeping my hands busy with other story-writing and music collecting.    "So, we will have to leave everything behind and go to a new world in March." Ballzz continues from Churro's comment. "We're thinking we will use our usual portal-hopping technique to get to a new world."   I sigh at the thought of it. The usual portal-hoping technique meant putting everyone but the leaders (Churro, Ballzz, Lost, and Zaring) to sleep while they used whatever magic or sorcery they had to get us there. I never really knew what that was, and never really had to use it, but it was definitely something.   "Well, ...

  3: Rocketing into a New Addiction   Ballzz wanted to show me something awesome, unfortunately, it required me to actually have Minecraft skills. ~~   "So Ani, all you have to do is find the center of the rocket, fall down, hit the cobwebs, open up your elytra, and start shooting the flying rockets upward."   Ballzz's words almost blur in my mind, and I shake my head. "Sure, Ballzz." I walk to the edge of the dizzying platform he built. I try not to look down, but I end up doing it anyway. I quickly look up to relieve my split second of nausea before jumping off the edge. Watching the rocket spin around my vision as I fall, I can't help but wonder how insane this is. Just as I begin to get an answer, I hit a soft bed of cobwebs. I spread the wings on my elytra and grab the rockets out of my backpack, pointing them in random directions. Thankfully, Ballzz handed me about nine packages of them, each with sixty-four rockets. Just in case.   "An...

  2: Addicted to Christmas  It takes a long time before I could get back into the swing of being in a community. Thanks to other old friends like Ballzz, Churro, Zaring, BT, Mosin, Wolfie, and Lost, I get back into farming for everyone. Slowly, I get a system started to help out the server. It's still going -maybe not as fast as I would like it to, but it's getting there.   Amethyst swings by Renegade and I's farm just before my communicator begins to buzz. "Hey, your friends want you to swing by the world spawn." She says.   "Really? How did you figure that out?" Renegade huffs.   Amethyst and I roll her eyes. Renegade's a bit grouchy lately, for some odd reason or another. I nod and grab my communicator to put in the earpiece and flip open the screen. "What's the occasion?"   Amethyst smirks. "A Christmas tree that Ballzz wants to show off."   "Ah, alright." I smile and put the earpiece in before I tune into the ri...

  1: Supporting an Addiction   A few days ago, I got a rather strange note:    If you want to join your old friends in a new world, just talk to me. I think you would like it here. -Rev   It takes a moment to register what has been going on. Rev? Writing to me?    I hear my friend Renegade come up behind me and look over my shoulder. "Isn't that your friend from the Abandoned?"   The mention of that name makes me cringe. I finally gave up on that world, considering what lack of life and energy left that server. I look back at her. "Please, don't mention that to me again." I shiver at the thought of losing a lot of what could have been with that world.   Renegade puts her hand on my shoulder. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring up some horrible memories and thoughts. I didn't realize-"   "No, it's fine." I shake my head, trying to chase out old thoughts. "I have been meaning to talk to Rev anyway. It's been a ...
