Down The Drain

by Zack Zombie

  ZZZZZAAAAPPPP!

  But, suddenly, I continued flying through the air.

  For some reason, I wasn’t affected by Periwinkle’s powers!

  This ugly clown is going down!

  “Heeeeeyyyaaaahhhh!!!!”

  BOOOOOOOMMM!

  My big head landed full force into the killer clown.

  Periwinkle flew about twenty feet away from everybody and released his soul-crushing grip from my friend’s souls.

  “This cannot be!” I heard Periwinkle squeal as his voice cracked.

  Then he got up and looked at me. . .

  Oh, man, I think he’s really mad now.

  But then, all of a sudden, he tried to run away!

  This is your chance, Zombie!

  I ran at him with all my might and I jumped into the air (again in slow motion) . . .and I did a super fly, mega ultra-kick motion in the air.

  “Heeeeeyyyaaaahhhh!!!!”

  BOOOOOOMMM!!!!

  And it landed right on Periwinkle’s butt cheeks.

  OWOWOWOWOW!!!! Periwinkle yelled as he hopped around like a frog in a hot tub.

  Then all of us gathered around him.

  “RAWWRRRRR!!! UGGHHH!!! MULLLNNNRR!!!”

  He tried to scare us with his creepy clown face gestures, but nobody was afraid anymore.

  “I’ll get you for this!” he yelled as he started to shrink before our eyes.

  “You’ll see! I’ll be back to get my revenge!” he squealed.

  But he kept shrinking and shrinking until he totally disappeared.

  “Mamma mia! We did it!” Marco and Loogie yelled. “We are number one!”

  “Dude! How did you do that?” Steve asked. “How come Periwinkle’s spell didn’t work on you?”

  “I don’t know,” I said. “Maybe it’s because I’m awesome.”

  “Actually, Zombie,” Frogsworth said, “it’s because Periwinkle’s only has power over a person’s soul. And since you’re a Zombie. . .well. . .”

  “What. . .Seriously?!!!”

  Then we released the Sewer Fairy Princess, and she gave Marco and Loogie a kiss.

  Blech!

  Then we let Miss B. out of her cage and gave her the stolen hat.

  Didn’t help, though. She was still butt-ugly.

  And then we got Frogsworth a fresh diaper.

  As for me and Steve, we just looked at each other and decided it was time to get out of this crazy place and back to our normal lives in the Minecraft Overworld.

  Saturday

  Well, we made it back home today, safe and sound.

  Though, I think I will be forever traumatized by the things we saw.

  I’m just glad we got Miss B. a new pantsuit to go with her new hat.

  Nasty.

  I heard Marco and the Sewer Fairy Princess are getting married.

  And Loogie is the best man.

  They invited me and Steve to go to the wedding.

  But we decided not to go when we heard there was a flying pirate ship circling the castle.

  The entire experience encouraged Frogsworth to give up his diaper and put on his big boy pants.

  I’m not sure that was a good idea, though.

  Because Marco and Loogie never got around to fixing his toilet.

  As for me, well, I finally know what it feels like to face my fears and kick its butt.

  Funny thing was that I had the courage the entire time.

  I just had to tap into it.

  And all it took was my friends being in trouble, a little dragon named Sushi, and a Zombie hemorrhoid cream commercial to do it.

  It just makes me swell with pride just thinking about it.

  Anyway, now that I am brave, I have a feeling that Steve is going to ask me to go on even more crazy adventures.

  Like, I heard he just finished building a time travel portal.

  I know, crazy right.

  Steve has a really big imagination sometimes.

  It’s a good thing that it’s probably not real.

  . . .Or is it?

  Find out what happens next!

  Minecraft has gone through another major update and half of the Minecraft Overworld has disappeared! The only way for Zombie and Steve to figure out what happened is to travel back in time.

  Will Zombie and Steve be able to save their friends, and bring Minecraft back to being the kid friendly game loved all over the world? And what’s the deal with the Evil Corporation?
