A story by Wob
Chapter 1
I open my eyes to see I am standing in a big grey circle, surrounded by bushes. What?’ I say to myself. I see a few people with me in the circle, all of them standing there, staring into space.
I go to one of them and tap on their shoulder, only to realize I’m holding a sword. “AH,” I yelp, “WHY DO I HAVE A SWORD?!?”
“Hi,” says someone standing behind me, “Are you new?”
“Umm… I guess? I don’t really know,” I reply.
“I’m cartoonius,” he says extending out his hand.
“Uh, nice to meet you,” I say shaking his hand, “I’m Wob.” How do I even know that’s my name I think to myself. I reach into my pocket and am surprised to see I have a map. It’s covered in a bunch of moving red dots, differing in size. “What’s this?”
“It’s a map that shows where you are and all of the Swordbattle world.”
‘Swordbattle?’ “What’s a Sward batal?”
“Swordbattle,” he says as we walk up towards the snowy biome,”Is the world we live in, where we all kill each other for social status!”
“What. Why though? Why not make peace?”
“Dude. Seriously? What do you expect when you give a bunch of random people swords?”
“Yeah that makes sense. Tell me more about this world.”
“Ok. So yeah, there’s three regions: Grass, Snow, and the Volcanic. There’s also many mobs some hostile some not, and two bosses. There’s the snow Yeti and the volcanic Monster, I guess.”
As soon as he finished his sentence I felt a sharp, searing pain through my neck for about a millisecond, and then everything went dark.
Chapter 2
I open my eyes to see I am in the spawn. I walk out, disoriented. I see Cartoonius up ahead. “What the heck happened,” I ask.
“Oh. You got decapitated,” he says, casually.
“What.”
“Yeah, someone threw their sword and then you died.”
“Why is there a pile of coins on the ground?”
“Those are yours. When you die you drop coins.” I go to pick them up but they swim around me, like I have a force field that blocks coins.
“You can’t pick up your own coins.” He walks toward them and they just get absorbed into… well him.
“What. HUH? HOW!”
“Just… I don’t know… absorb them.” I am still flabbergasted by the fact they just… disappear. We continue into the snowy region. I stare up at a huge ice spike.
“WOOAHHH,” I exclaim, “COOOLLL!!!” Immediately after saying this I feel a sharp pain through my leg, like I’ve been bitten. I look down and find a little white furry thing with horns clinging on to me leg with its teeth. “GETITOFFGETITOFFGETITOFF!!!”
“Bro chill,” he says and then impales his sword through the ugly dog. “It’s just a yeti.”
“Huh… I feel so stupid right now.”
“No comment…”
We continue walking and he instructs me on how to break a chest. We find a gigantic purple one with purple gems encrusted in the top.
“LETS GOO,” he yells. We start breaking the chest.
“Stand in the middle, next to me,” he says, “it’ll split the coins evenly.” When we break it I am met with a turtle shell and a knight helmet, both floating in front of me.
“AAH,” I yell, scared by the appearance of the floating objects.
“Wow. You really are a coward,” he says, looking annoyed, “just pick up the knight helmet.”
I do as he says. As soon as I pick it up I put it on. I immediately feel like i can run 1000 miles. I run around, realizing I am significantly faster.
“COOL!” I say, “What else can I do?”
“Well, your sword is now sharper.”
