I asked Bones how he felt about his pet spider being left behind. “Go see if your parents are okay,” is all he said before walking away (probably towards his shack). I think he’s really upset about it. I’ll have to cheer him up later.
Alex said he needed to go back to the human civilization to see if they had made it back. “I still care for them, even if they did try to kill me.” He tapped me on the shoulder. “I’ll come over as soon as I know they’re safe.”
I arrived at our cave moments after Bones and Alex had departed. As soon as I walked through the door, my parents rose and hugged me. We all moaned and grunted in happiness at one another and shared a long hug. At that moment I didn’t bother to ask why they didn’t come, because all I cared about was them being safe and being able to see them once again.
It’s great to be back.
Monday – Day 20
Alex arrived at our cave door once the moon had risen. He knew our sleeping patterns too well. My Father answered and welcomed him in. “All the humans are missing,” he said as he came in and sat on the floor. “They’re most likely still in The Nether.” I wrote him a note in reply: ‘What are we going to do?’
“Well I don’t fancy risking my life just to be killed upon saving them.” He was referring to going back into The Nether portal and the humans not being happy with us the last time we met. I’m sure if we saved them, they wouldn’t kill us, but I wasn’t going to take that chance. I didn’t fancy persuading Bones or anyone else, considering how little the humans think of us.
My parents left me with Alex whilst they went down into the cave. I’m not exactly sure as to why they went down, but they pointed at me and Alex then to the back door; I believe they want to explore all the tunnels we dug down there. They are becoming more adventurous it seems.
There was another knock on the door. It was Bones, who entered before I had a chance to answer. He walked in, sat on the floor, and just looked at me for a few seconds without saying anything. I looked back without speaking too, and somehow I just knew to put my arm on him. I pushed out the word: “Okay.” I think he knew what I meant; it’s going to be okay, he’ll find another pet spider. Until then, I was there for him.
Alex and Bones spoke about the humans and then Alex’s face lit up: “The portal is still there. They can come back through it.” Then his face dropped. “Should we destroy it or allow them to come back?”
Bones looked up from the ground, “My spider could come back. I don’t want the death of all those humans on my conscious, either.”
Alex rose and walked out of the front cave door. We followed him. He sat on the grass between the cave entrance and The Nether portal. We spoke for a while, as the moon shone over us, until the purple wave of The Nether portal started to ripple.
Out came one of the humans, who looked terrified. He ran behind us, straight into the cave, and slammed the door. We watched him in awe. I rose to tell him to get out of my home but then the ripple started again…
This time one of those zombie pig men stood over us with his sword.… The monsters from The Nether were leaking into our beautiful world!
