Hello everyone. This is my very first fanfic of minecraft and I hope you enjoy it. There is a tiny bit of language in this story so watch out for that. Another thing is that this fanfic is anime-based because it is based on the mob talker mod too so I hope you enjoy that and let's begin. Another thing though, I decided to make a few changes in this chapter because I still felt like it needed some work. I didn't change much so if that's okay, let's get started!

Chapter 01: First entry into a new world

Part 1: Prologue

A young brown haired teen boy sat up in his bed. He stretched his arms all the way to the ceiling. He slapped his hand on his digital alarm clock. It stopped buzzing. He rubbed his eyes. And then he remembered something..

Cody: It's Saturday! Woohoo!

The boy, or Cody, jumped out of bed and into his spinning chair. He spun until he made a stop at his desktop. He booted up his computer.

Cody: Time to play some minecraft!

He was interrupted by his mother calling him.

Mrs. Dawson: Cody, time to get dressed for school!

The teen boy slammed his head on the keyboard.

Cody (thinking): Right. It's not Saturday… it's Friday…

Mrs. Dawson: Cody!

Cody: I'm coming mom!

Cody changed from his light-blue PJ's and into his school uniform, a white button up shirt, a red tie, dark blue jeans and blue Nikes sneakers. He brushed his teeth, washed his face, and ran down the stairs with his backpack over his shoulder. When he went into the kitchen, the delicious aroma of breakfast filled the air around him. Eggs, toast, bacon, and his favorite blueberry pancakes with some juice were set on the table just waiting for him.

Cody: Thanks mom!

Mrs. Dawson: You'd better hurry up, or you'll be late for school!

Cody: Okay mom.

After breakfast Cody bolted out the door and into his bike. He rode as fast as he can all the way to school. When he reached the school, he chained his bike to the bike rack and walked inside. There, Cody recognized two familiar faces and ran up to them.

Cody: 'Sup Darren. 'Sup Matt

Darren: Wassup Cody! It's finally Friday! *he shook hands with Cody and they bumped their shoulders*

Matt: Hey Hey it's the codster! wassup buddy how you doing today huh? *He shook Cody's shoulder and laughed*

Darren had brown hair, brown eyes, and was a sports player. He's taller than Cody, but they were best friends ever since they were little kids. Matt is a dark-haired computer geek with glasses. After helping Cody with a science project a few months ago, they both realized that they had many common interests and they became friends ever since.

Darren: Did you update your minecraft from the 1.7 version?

Cody: Yep. I also downloaded a few new mods for my game.

Darren: Nice. Which ones?

Cody: Um… the mob talker mod is one of them.

Matt: The mob talker mod? Isn't that only for people 18 and up?

Cody: Hey I'm 17 years old. My birthday is in a month. And I'm not going to wait that long just to download a mod.

Matt: Aw… this guy is so lonely in minecraft that he can't wait for his new friends. The poor thing…

Darren: *sings* I'm so lonely…. I'm so lonely…

Cody: *Punches Darren softly in the arm* Shut up.

Darren: *Grabs Cody and messes his hair up. Cody breaks free. Everyone is laughing.*

Matt: *checks the time* Come on we'd better get to class. Bell is about to ring in about two minutes.

Cody: No time to lose then. Let's go.

As they were walking, Cody caught the sight of some guy bullying a young girl.

Bully: Thanks for the money, little girl.

Girl: No stop! I need that give it back!

The girl was petite, so she was no match for the bully's tall height. The girl looked like a freshman too. She was pushed into the lockers.

Bully: Tough luck little girl.

Girl: No that's my money give it back!

Bully: Um… nope. *laughs*

Cody: *Taps on the bully's shoulder*

Bully: Hm? *looks at Cody* what do you want douchbag?

Cody: Oh, nothing, just for you to cry. *He punches the guy in the face, then in the gut, and finishes with a kick in mid-air*

Bully: *Cries in pain until he is knocked out by Cody*

Cody takes the money from the bully and hands it to the girl.

Cody: You okay?

Girl: Yes um… thank you for getting me my lunch money back.

Cody: Not a problem. It's this douchbag's fault for bullying girls.

Girl: Well thank you anyway.

Cody: so what's your name?

Arianna: It's Arianna Jamison.

Cody: Cool. You've got a nice name there.

Arianna: Thank you um… what's your name?

Cody: Name's Cody, Cody Dawson. At your service *bows*

Arianna: *blushes* Wait, wait! It's not like that!

Cody: I know. I was just kidding.

Arianna: *embarrassed* Oh… okay.

Cody: I've gotta get to class. The bell's about to ring

Arianna: Yeah, me too.

Cody: Say you seem like a nice person. Let's honor our first meeting by having lunch at Petey's Pizza. What do you say?

Arianna: I love Petey's Pizza! It's a deal!

Cody: Cool. Here's my number in case you need a ride.

Arianna: I'll be fine. But thank you anyway.

Cody: So how does Sunday sound?

Arianna: Good, but is it ok if I bring my little sister too? She loves pizza.

Cody: Yeah. I can bring my bros too *referring to Matt and Darren*. They're both really nice.

Arianna: Okay. I'll meet you this Sunday.

Cody: All right Arianna. See you later.

Arianna: Bye Cody!

Cody looked back at Arianna while he was walking to class. Arianna was petite with light brown hair up to her neck. Cody wasn't looking for a romantic complication with her, he just wanted to be friends. He always has room for new friends after all, and what better way to celebrate friendship than pizza? Cody wonders if she plays minecraft…

During class

Darren: *whispers* Dude what was that?

Cody: *whispers back* what was what Darren?

Matt: *whispers to him* Darren and I saw you giving some girl your number. Didn't you already have a girlfriend?

Teacher: Be quiet.

Silence falls until Cody speaks.

Cody: *whispers to Matt* Dude I'm not going to date her or anything. I'm just going to hang out with her and her sister at Petey's Pizza to honor our friendship. You guys can come too.

Matt: Sounds good bro. Say whatever happened to your last girlfriend?

Cody: We broke up. And she moved away.

Matt: Oh yeah. Good thing she moved too. She was a bitch.

Teacher: No talking!

Silence until Matt speaks.

Matt: *Whispers to Cody* so when is this 'meeting'?

Cody: This Sunday.

Matt: Cool. I'll let Darren know.

Cody: Alright bro.

After school

Darren: You gonna play minecraft when you get home bro?

Cody: Yeah.

Matt: See you on the forums bro.

Cody: You too man. See ya!

Darren and Matt: Later bro!

Cody heads to the bike rack, unchains his bike, and rides as fast as he can all the way home.

It was 5:00 pm, and Cody was back at his house. He was excited. He ran into his house and with no time to lose he ran up the stairs.

Cody: I'm going upstairs to play minecraft mom!

Mrs. Dawson: *Calls from the kitchen* Okay sweetie! Just make sure to come down for dinner by 7!

Cody: Okay mom!

Cody enters his room and closes his door. He tosses his backpack to his bed along with his tie, but leaves everything else on. Cody boots up his computer again and presses the minecraft link.

Cody (thinking): This is going to be fun!

Minecraft's title appeared on the screen.

Cody (thinking): I think I'll start a new world.

He pressed the 'start game' button and then clicked the 'create new world' button. He named it 'Cody's world'. Putting it on survival mode normal difficulty, he clicked the 'start new world' button.

Cody (thinking): Let's do this!

The screen began to load, but something unusual began to happen. The screen began to static and buzzes unnaturally.

Cody: What the hell? Does my computer have some kind of virus?

Then the whole screen lit up. And a bright light filled his room. Cody screamed as he was consumed in the bright light. Next thing, the light disappeared, his chair fell to the ground, but Cody wasn't in it.

Part 2: Meet Cupa the Creeper

Cody slowly opened his eyes to discover himself in a strange new place.

Cody: Ow... my head… man what the shit happened?

He sits up while grabbing his head. His head was banging from the impact of his fall. After the pain diminished, Cody looked around. Strangely enough, he found himself on a flat ground with mountains and trees surrounding him. Everything looked so… blocky.

Cody: Huh? Where am I? Wait this looks familiar…

Cody focuses on the trees around him until he realized something that made him jump to his feet.

Cody: Oh my god… I'm in MINECRAFT!

Cody grins broadly as he saw the minecraft world, his world, with his very own eyes. Because he was actually IN minecraft, he was really excited. But he had to make sure…

Cody looked down to the chat screen and saw that it said Geromianse129 has joined the game.

Cody: Oh my god… it's really happening.

He noticed something strange with his hair. For some reason he felt that it was way longer than it originally was, past his neck. He got a strand of his hair and noticed that the color changed too. It wasn't brown anymore. No it was… orange?

Cody: Bro what the hell happened to my hair? Wasn't the skin on my avatar supposed to look like me in the real world when I made it?

Cody spotted a nearby pond with some chickens walking next to it. He ran towards the pond and the chickens ran away. Cody looked at the water and saw that his hair actually WAS longer and it was orange too. He noticed his eye color changed too. It was blue instead of brown. He also noticed that his body was normal instead of blocky.

Cody: What the fuck? What IS this?

He looked at his hands, and he noticed that his hands were different too. It was black and the fingers were tipped with a grey color. On the bottom was a large grey pentagon on the palm of his hand which the fingertips seem to connect themselves to. On the back of his hand, he noticed an orange crystal that was shaped like an emerald. It was shiny, but strange at the same time.

Cody: Dude, first my hair and now my hands? Something really freaky is going on here.

He glanced at the sky, and saw the sun rising in the east.

Cody: Uh oh. I'd better find some wood and build a house before it gets dark!

He gets up and starts to punch out some trees. Normally he would get about 15 blocks of wood, but just to be safe he collects way more than that. After punching out his last tree, Cody noticed a strange sight in the distance. He squints at it until he noticed something about it. Something that just might save his ass

Cody: No way. It's a village! Woohoo I'm saved!

He runs to the village which wasn't too far away. When he enters the village, he sees squidward-like people walking around. The villagers. One notices him and walks up to him with a welcoming smile.

Villager: Ah hello honored traveler. Welcome to the village. Would you like to buy anything?

The villager sounds Indian. Cody wondered if all villagers sounded like that.

Cody: No I'm just looking around.

Villager: Are you sure? I can sell you some fish for 4 emeralds.

Cody: Thanks but no thanks. I'm broke.

Villager: Ah it's okay. Many travelers are when they first spawn. Just whenever you have some money and you want some fish, or seafood for that matter, you know who to talk to.

Cody: Thanks. I'll think about it.

Cody (thinking): wait, how did he know that I just spawned? It's so weird.

Then Cody heard some villagers screaming. He and the villager he was talking to looked and saw a group of villagers running away from something. They separated and Cody saw that the thing they were running away from was a girl. She had orange hair, like him, and wore short jeans and a green sweater with the hoodie over her head. The hood of her sweater had the face of a creeper, but all Cody saw was a girl.

Creeper girl: Wait! Don't leave! I just- Please don't leave! I just wanted to be friends with you!

Villager: Gotta go. *runs away*

Cody: But why are you running? That's a human!

Villager: What are you cookoo-head? That is the creeper! It's going to blow us up into tiny villager bits. Ahh!

Cody looked back at the girl and didn't see a creeper, no matter how hard he squinted.

Creeper girl: *falls on her knees* don't leave me. I just wanted to be friends with you all. *Tears swell in her eyes*

Cody, feeling sympathy for the poor girl, went to comfort her. He looked around, and there was no one in sight. Cody knelt down next to the girl, and saw that she was about to cry.

Cody: *softly* Hey, what's wrong? Why are you so sad?

Creeper girl: *looks at him* because *sniff* nobody wants to be my friend. All they do is run away. All they say *sniff* is 'Aahhh! Run it's a creeper! It's going to kill us!' that's who they think I am. That's all they see me as. A creeper

Cody felt his heart breaking. How could anyone be so fucking stupid as to see this girl as nothing more than just a plain old creeper about to kill them when really all she wants is to make friends with them?

Cody: Well I don't see you as a creeper.

Creeper girl: *sniff* you don't?

Cody: No not at all. All I see is a human, like me. No, all I see is a beautiful young girl wanting nothing more than a friend, but was never accepted.

Creeper girl: You think I'm… beautiful?

Cody: Yes I do. Because if I was lying, I wouldn't have said that in the first place

Creeper girl: Is that true?

Cody: Yes it is. And if it makes you feel any better, I can be your friend.

Creeper girl: *surprised* you- you will!?

Cody: *nods* and you can rest assured that I will never run away from you, no matter what happens.

Creeper girl: *Jumps on Cody and they both fall. She hugs him tightly* Thank You! You don't know how much that means to me! Thank you so much!

Cody: *strained* you're welcome.

Cody (thinking): boy this girl has some strength for someone like her!

Creeper girl: *Kisses Cody on the cheek*

Cody: *stops straining and blushes*

Creeper girl: *giggles* you should see yourself blushing. You're as red as redstone!

Cody: *sweat* Um… yeah. Thanks for telling me that. So can you get off me now?

Creeper girl: *blushes* O-oh right! I'm so sorry!

Cody: It's okay…

The creeper girl gets off Cody and helps him up.

Cody: Thanks. So what's your name?

Cupa: I'm Cupa the creeper. Although I don't look like one, I guess I still am.

Cody: You don't seem like it.

Cupa: So what's your username?

Cody: Uh… come again?

Cupa: Your username silly!

Cody: O-oh right.

Cody (thinking): I guess she doesn't realize that she's in a game. I guess I'll tell her when the time is right.

Cody: Just call me Cody.

Cupa: Cody. I like that name.

Cody: Thanks. I like yours too.

Cupa: Thank you.

Cody: So Cupa, do you have a place to live?

Cupa: No. I don't have a home.

Cody: Aw that's too bad. Say, I was just about to start building my house. Do you maybe want to help me out and you know *blushes* live together?

Cupa: Really!? Would you let me stay with you!?

Cody: You want to live with me?! I mean- yeah of course. I can't let such a young, innocent and beautiful girl like you rot out here in the wilderness.

Cupa: *blushes* Wow Cody. You are such a gentleman.

Cody: *grins* It's what I do. So we should get started now?

Cupa: Yes of course!

Cody: Cool. I have a bunch of wood. I can make wooden planks and we can get started.

Cupa: I have a lot of random crap in my inventory. Maybe we can use that to build our house?

Cody: We'll see. I'll find a spot for us to build then we can get started.

Cupa: okay!

So that's how it began. Afterwards Cody found a nice spot on a field and started building. He built a nice two-story house with the wooden oak planks. He also built a crafting table and crafted a door, along with stairs to get to the second floor. He had a lot of wood! Cupa, however, had a lot of random stuff in her inventory. Some were good, she had glass, coal (thankfully), and wool to make some beds. But all the other stuff that she had was just random; she had leaves, grass, a shitload of dirt, redstone, a wooden pickaxe which was about to break, and a flower.

Cody: Why do you have so much dirt Cupa?

Cupa: Because the creepers I used to be around with all blew up and caused all this dirt to be in my inventory.

Cody: Oh okay.

Pretty soon, thanks to Cupa's help and his fast building skills, Cody finished his house in just two hours. After throwing away all the dirt Cupa had, Cody crafted two beds, one for Cupa, and one for himself. Both he and Cupa stood outside, admiring the house they worked so hard on.

Cupa: It's beautiful.

Cody: I know. I know.

Then it hit him.

Cody: ...! I just realized a major flaw in our plan.

Cupa: What's that?

Cody: We have no food.

Cupa: *stomach growls*

Cody: *stomach growls too*

Cody: I guess we're both hungry! I'll go craft some tools and find some food.

Cupa: Good plan. I'll go with you.

Cody made a wooden sword and a wooden pickaxe for him and Cupa. He taught her how to use a sword, and then they set out to find food. They killed two cows, four pigs, and a bunch of chickens to collect their meat. They walked further and Cody saw a cave in the ground. He pointed at it and they walked towards the entrance.

Cody: You know how to mine right?

Cupa: Yes. But I don't really do it much.

Cody: Well now's your chance.

They entered the cave. Fortunately, Cody still had some torches so they could light up the darkness in the cave. They didn't go very far inside. As they were mining…

Cody: I found coal! I'll make a work bench and craft some stone pickaxes using this cobblestone.

Cupa: I found some iron!

Cody: Awesome! We can make a furnace with that.

After they were done mining, they left the cave returned to their house, when sunset just arrived. Their home was alit with torches. Cody crafted the furnace like he said and placed the food inside. He sat on the floor, watching the furnace cook the food. Cupa sat next to him. But Cody didn't mind. That is, until Cupa inched a little closer. But that was okay for Cody. Sort of. Cupa inched a little closer, then a little closer. That's when Cody started to get nervous.

Cody: Uh… Cupa?

Cupa leans on Cody's shoulder. He blushes.

Cody: Cupa?

Cupa: *looks at him* Yes Cody?

Cody: What are you doing?

Cupa: Just resting on your shoulder. I hope that's okay.

Cody: No no it's fine. But actually…

He reaches and removes Cupa's hood from her head.

Cody: I think that you shouldn't keep using that hoodie to cover your pretty head so much.

Cupa: You think it's… pretty?

Cody: Yes I do. I hope that's okay.

Cupa: *blushes* no no it's fine. But actually…

Cody: What is it?

Cupa: I like your hands.

Cody: My hands?

Cupa: Yes. *She takes one and lifts it up* I've never seen anyone with hands like these before. They look pretty cool.

Cody: Yeah but they're not natural. As a matter of fact, I don't even know what these are myself.

Cupa: What do you mean?

Cody: When I spawned in this world, which was like today, I found these already on my hands.

Cupa: Weird…

Cody: Yeah I know. And my skin wasn't like this before. Because before I used to have normal hands like yours, and my hair was different too.

Cupa: What do you mean?

Cody: This isn't my natural hair. It was shorter and it was brown. My eyes were brown too. But for some reason when I spawned, everything just… changed.

Cupa: Well I think that you look fine just the way you are.

Cody: Thank you but I still don't know how this happened, and I am going to get to the bottom of this.

Cupa: *takes both of Cody's hands* you're not alone.

Cody: What do you mean?

Cupa: I mean that you're not alone, that I'm going to help you.

Cody: Thanks Cupa. Why don't you tell me about yourself so I can get to know you better?

Cupa: Okay then. Um… I was raised by a group of creepers ever since my parents died, which was when I was still a toddler. They neglected me, took advantage of my friendliness, and didn't even love me.

Cody: Cupa…

Cupa: When I grew old enough I set out on my own trying to find at least one person who would accept me for who I am. Someone who I could call a friend. But everywhere I went, people always run away just because I'm a creeper. They think 'It's a creeper! Run! It's going to blow us up!' *sigh* they judge me before they even get to know me.

Cody: But what about other mobs?

Cupa: They know I'm a creeper, but the fact that I look human causes them to attack me. No one, not even my own kind wants me because I'm a human look-alike. And at that point, I was starting to think that I was going to be forever alone.

Cody: Well I'm always forever alone in minecraft so I can understand you.

Cupa: Yes but it's different. I thought I was never going to find someone until you came along. You changed everything.

Cody: Me? How?

Cupa: You were the very first person to ever realize that I was more than just a creeper. You comforted me, you said nice things about me, and you even gave me a place to stay and food to eat. And that's something I'll never forget. Your kindness, honesty, and caring for others makes my heart feel like that I'm not alone in this world. Not anymore.

Cupa: *kisses Cody on the cheek*

Cody: *blushes*

Cupa: *blushes* Thank you, Cody.

Cody: You're welcome Cupa. And thank you for wanting to help me solve my problem.

Cupa: You're welcome.

They both stare at each other until the fire from the furnace runs out. Cody glances at the furnace and saw no more fire coming from it.

Cody: It looks like the food is done. Want some dinner Cupa?

Cupa: Dinner would be nice.

After the meal, Cody put the leftovers away in a chest. Then he and Cupa headed upstairs to get some sleep. They entered a large room with only two beds, two crafting tables, and two large chests in it. There were torches just below the ceiling.

Cody: Sorry if it's a little too roomy in here but hey, we just built this place today so what do you expect?

Cupa: I think its fine.

Cody: Yeah me too. Well… Goodnight Cupa. *gets in bed*

Cupa: Goodnight Cody. *Gets in her ned next to Cody's. They were separated by a crafting table between them*

One hour later….

Cupa sleeps silently in her bed, while Cody lays awake, thinking about what happened today. These are the questions in his mind:

What is going on exactly?

Why was I transported here?

Why did my hair, eyes, and hands change?

Will I ever return home?

What is going to happen from now on?

Will I ever see my friends and family again?

What will happen between me and Cupa?

Then another question popped into his head.

Are there others like Cupa, transformed into humans because of the…

It clicked.

Mob talker mod…

Cody came to realize that the reason why he is here and why this is happening may have something to do with the mods he downloaded into his game. If that were true, maybe he could find a way out of here and back to his own world. But in order to do that, he needed answers, answers to all of his questions. He needs to find someone who can give him all the answers he needs.

Cody glances at Cupa. He knew that the road ahead him may not be an easy one, but at least there was someone who was willing to help him through it. He wasn't alone, and he was grateful for that.

Cody: *smiles, then falls asleep*

Part 3: Disappearance.

Meanwhile, back in reality

Mrs. Dawson: *calls out* Cody! Dinner's ready!

Silence

Mrs. Dawson: Cody?

She exits the kitchen and walks upstairs to Cody's room. She knocks on his door and calls his name. No answer. Getting suspicious, Mrs. Dawson opens his door to find that Cody wasn't there.

Mrs. Dawson: Cody? Where could he have gone?

She checks every room in the house while calling Cody's name as if he were a dog. She tried calling him. No answer. She tries a few more times with the same result.

Mrs. Dawson: Where could he be?

Darren's room

Darren: YES! I WON THE HUNGER GAMES! WOOHOO!

He sat back in his chair.

Darren: Four times in a row baby. What up?

He hears his phone ringing. He checks it and sees that it was Cody's mom that was calling him. Confused, the boy answered.

Darren: What's up Mrs. Dawson? Is something going on with Cody?

Mrs. Dawson: Well, yes… Cody's not here.

Darren: *sits up* what do you mean?

Mrs. Dawson: I mean he's not here. He's not in his room, the bathroom, the back yard, he's just not here!

Darren: Weird… so, why are you calling me?

Mrs. Dawson: I was calling to see if he snuck away from home and went to your house, because he does that every once in a while.

Darren: Um… not sure. Hold on let me check. *covers his phone and calls out* Mom!

Darren's mother: *calls back* Yes sweetie?

Darren: Is Cody here?

Darren's mother: No he's not. Let me check.

After a few minutes

Darren: Is he here?

Darren's mother: No. Not at all

Darren: *Puts his phone to his ear again* Hello?

Mrs. Dawson: Hello? Is he there?

Darren: No he's not.

Mrs. Dawson: Oh dear… Where could he be…?

Darren: Hmm…. Let me call Matt. He's an expert at this kind of stuff.

Mrs. Dawson: Okay…

Darren: *hangs up and calls Matt*

Matt: *picks up on the first ring* Hello?

Darren: Hey Matt, you busy?

Matt: No but wait, why?

Darren: It's about Cody.

Matt: Cody? What's up all of a sudden?

Darren: Apparently he's gone missing.

Matt: Missing you say? How could that be? If he was kidnapped or something we wouldn't have to worry because Cody could beat anyone's ass anytime

Darren: I'm not sure if he was kidnapped but the problem is that he's not at his house or mine. And he usually doesn't leave his home after he gets there unless it's to get to my house.

Matt: Huh. How strange

Darren: I know. Let's meet at his house and investigate. For all we know, Cody could be in trouble.

Matt: Alright. And don't worry I have the address.

Darren: Okay. How fast can you get there?

Matt: Um… about 35 minutes?

Cody's living room

It was a nice room, decent furniture and a large flat screen TV added variety in it. Matt was wearing his 'amazing' Sherlock Holmes outfit while Darren was in his casual clothes, an orange and white T-shirt, khaki jeans, and Michael Jordan shoes.

Darren: Did you really have to wear that?

Matt: *british accent* Yes. Anyway, tells us what happened Mrs. Dawson.

Mrs. Dawson: Well I called Cody down for dinner but he didn't answer. I went upstairs to his room and saw that he wasn't there. I checked all over the house and he wasn't anywhere here. I called Darren but he wasn't at his house either. Cody's never ever done this before. I'm getting kind of worried.

Matt: Ma'am, has it ever crossed your mind that he might have snuck out on his own accord, not to Darren's house, but to anywhere else?

Mrs. Dawson: Why would he do that? He's usually inside reading, studying, watching TV or playing minecraft.

Darren: Yeah. And knowing him he's not the type of person to sneak out just like that all of a sudden if it's not to my house.

Matt: Well, I would say that we have quite a perplexing situation on our hands.

Darren: A what now?

Matt: Never mind. Can you take us to his room?

Mrs. Dawson: Yes of course. Follow me…

Cody's Room

Matt: So this is the crime scene huh?

Darren: Apparently. And you're not British so stop that accent will ya?

Matt: *normal voice* but it's cool!

Darren: It's annoying.

Mrs. Dawson: Um… boys?

Matt: Huh? Oh yes, the crime!

Darren: *rolls his eyes*

Matt: Darren, do you mind checking the window while I check Cody's desk?

Darren: Sure. *Goes over to Cody's window as Matt goes over to Cody's desk*

Mrs. Dawson: *watches as the two boys investigate*

Matt: *Checks Cody's desk, buts sees nothing but Cody's computer still on. The only thing he thought was unusual was Cody's chair on the floor but that was it* what's the stats on the window?

Darren: Nothing unusual here. It doesn't even seem like anybody's touched it in a while.

Mrs. Dawson: Oh that's right I need to clean his window!

Matt: *takes out a magnifying glass, checks the room, but sees nothing* It's so weird.

Darren and Mrs. Dawson: What?

Matt: Cody's gone missing all of a sudden, yet nothing seems out of place, except for his chair. It's as if Cody just… disappeared.

Darren: Disappeared?

Matt: Faded, vanished, you know?

Darren: I seriously doubt that.

Mrs. Dawson: Yes me too. Cody can't just vanish into thin air like that.

Matt: Well whatever the reason, the fact is that Cody isn't here, but what happened is still a mystery.

Matt (thinking): And we don't have a clue either as to what happened. His computers still on though. Does that mean anything? Nah what am I saying?

Later on at 8:59 pm…

Mrs. Dawson: Did you find anything?

Matt: Nope. Nothing suspicious here at ALL

Darren: Cody might have snuck out on his own for reason but I'm sure by tomorrow, he'll be back for sure.

Matt: And we'll keep an eye out for him too Mrs. Dawson. You don't have to worry about a thing.

Mrs. Dawson: Thank you boys. I'm so glad that Cody has friends that care for him so much. especially you Darren. I'm so glad that you are there to help whenever there is trouble.

Darren: *blush* Ah it's nothing. Cody's my bro after all.

Matt: He's my bro too, so I'll be helping out too. But it's getting a little late and my mom will freak if I'm out for too long.

Darren: Yeah I should be getting back too.

Mrs. Dawson: I understand. Why don't you boys come by tomorrow and I'll whip up a cake for you to eat?

Matt: Cake sounds awesome! It's a deal!

Mrs. Dawson: It's settled then.

Outside

Darren: Bye Mrs. Dawson.

Matt: Bye Mrs. Dawson!

Mrs. Dawson: Good bye boys. Have a good night too!

Darren: thanks we will.

Darren turns his car on and both he and Matt get inside.

Matt: I didn't know you drive a car.

Darren: I just got this and my license today.

Matt: *mumbles* Hmph! Lucky son of a…

Darren: *laughs then drives away*

Mrs. Dawson waves as Darren drove back home. Her smile turns into a frown.

Mrs. Dawson (thinking): Cody… wherever you are… please come home. I've already lost your father, but not you too. Please, come home soon Cody.

She walks back inside the house and shuts the door.

Part 4: An unexpected visitor

Cupa woke up in a jolt. She was sweaty and was panting. She looked outside the window. For some reason her instinct told her to run away. It told her that there was an evil lurking in the woods, and told her to run away. She had no choice. She shook Cody.

Cupa: Cody? Cody! Cody please wake up!

Cody: *waking up* mmm…. what time is it?

Cupa: *wraps her arms around Cody's neck*

Cody: *blush* Cupa!? W-What's going on?

Cupa: there's something in the woods outside!

Cody: You probably saw a mob outside. Don't worry it can't get to you as long as you're inside.

Cupa: No it's not that! *Hugs him tighter*

Cody: W-Well what is it then?

Cupa: I felt something…

Cody: You felt something?

Cupa: Yes from outside. I'm getting this… strange feeling coming from outside.

Cody: Cupa what are you talking about? *sleepily* You're probably just getting scared…

Cupa: No it's not that! *shakes him awake* I don't know but my instinct keeps telling me to run away. I have no idea what it is and I don't like it! Please do something about this Cody!

Cody: *breaks the hug* okay just show me where you're getting this strange feeling. from.

Cupa: *nods and leads him to the window*

Cody: there?

Cupa: *nods*

Cody: *looks out the window and sees nothing but trees* I don't see or feel anything, but just to be safe I'm going out there to check things out.

Cupa: Okay.

Cody puts on a full set of stone armor and pulls out a stone sword.

Cody: Stay here Cupa. I don't want you getting hurt.

Cupa: Okay.

Then Cody left his home and walked into the forest.

Cody (thinking): No mobs are outside. Not even zombies! I'm playing on survival mode on normal difficulty. Aren't there supposed to be mobs at night time?

He hears someone approach from behind him.

Cody (thinking): I knew it!

He whips around with his sword ready but the only mob he was the human mob, Cupa.

Cody: Cupa? I thought I told you to stay inside!

Cupa: I was too scared to be by myself…

Cody: Oh Cupa I know it seems scary but…

Cupa: *gasp*

Cody: What? Is it a monster?

Cupa: Even worse… *she points behind him*

Cody turns around again and saw a lone woman approaching them. She had perfectly long and straight blond hair that reached above her waist, and wore all black clothing. There was an opening on her chest and there was no cloth from her shoulders to her elbows, but the rest of her arms had clothing on it. Her black hat was covering her eyes, and a black and white cat was resting on top of her shoulder. Cody didn't have to be a rocket scientist to guess who this was. The hat gave it all away. He held his sword closer to him.

Cody: I-It's a witch!

Cupa: It's a cat! Eeeeeeeee! *jumps behind Cody*

The witch lady looked up and noticed Cody and Cupa standing right in front of her. She smiled deviously.

Witch: Well well well, what do we have here? Two children out here in the deep, dark, and scary woods at this time of night…

Her cat meowed lazily.

Cody: Who… who are you?

Claudette: Oh forgive my rudeness. I haven't introduced myself yet. I am Claudette the witch.

Cody (thinking): Impossible. This lady is way too pretty to even be a witch. She looks more human too. And she doesn't even have a wart!

Claudette: And this is Neferatti, my apprentice cat.

Neferatti: *wakes up and meows*

Cupa: EEEEEEEEEE!

Cody: Not so loud Cupa you screamed in my ear…

Claudette: Obviously you kids know what would happen if you meet a witch like this, do you?

She was still smiling. That surprisingly made things a whole lot scarier.

Cody (thinking): Dammit! And on my first night here too! Okay Cody, just calm down. All you need to do is try to survive this fight and it'll be okay. Everything is going to be okay.

Cupa: G-Get it away from me! Ahhh!

Cody: Don't worry Cupa. I'll protect you.

Claudette: Aw how cute. The little boy is trying to protect his little girlfriend. *she walks closer to Cody*

Cody and Cupa: *freaks out*

Claudette: *lifts up Cody's chin and leans closer to his face* that truly is adorable, how one young boy is willing to risk his own life just to save his girlfriend. Not many men do that…

Cody: *blush* Um… Uh…

Cody (thinking): Why do my cheeks feel so warm?

Claudette: But now I'm going to ask something of you, human. Something that will determine whether you get the chance to live or not.

Neferatti: Meow!
