== Chapter 3: Everything is Normal ==
=== POV: Alex P. Richardson ===
My name is Alex P. Richardson.
I'm 15.
I have loved Minecraft for a really long time.
I also love playing it with my best friend Jack.
Near our houses, we went through a shortcut, which was a small path through a wood.
When we took this path, we were never late.
Jack and I even decorated the path, and called it Route 99.
We called it that because of a road sign we saw on our way to school.
We were pretty decent in school, but we goofed off often and played unblocked games on our crappy school Chromebooks.
We had a normal day, and then when I finished my homework, I called Jack over to play some Minecraft.
He came over, and we had fun while doing the same thing any normal Minecrafter would do.
We gathered wood, stone, iron, made a house, and everything. 
Soon enough, we got diamonds, netherite, made eyes of Ender, and did stuff for a while.
Then, we beat the Ender Dragon. 
== Chapter 4: It All Goes to Shit ==
=== POV: Jack Mooney ===
After I beat the Ender Dragon with Alex, we decided to start a new world.
However, something weird happened.
We loaded instantly into the world, with no loading screen or world selection.
We both looked down and saw that we had pitch black unbreakable blocks at our spawn point.
There was no wood in the trees, so we really couldn't do anything at that point.
However, we luckily found a village, and decided to kill the iron golems by standing three blocks tall and hitting it. 
We successfully got the iron, but then one of the weirdest things happened.
The villagers started shaking, and some became high contrast with white eyes.
Then, the high contrast villagers started screaming in a really glitchy way. We had to cover our ears.
After that, the villagers chopped off the heads of one another, and there was real blood, spilling everywhere.
When did the graphics become so good? I thought. 
Alex tried to kill one, but he just ended up on the block right next to me. That or he chickened out.
Also, when we tried to find some mobs, their AIs were frozen. To add to the creepiness, they weren't making any noise.
When I tried to kill one, it just reappeared in the same spot, and its AI was still frozen, but now it had pitch black eyes.
We got pretty scared.
Then, at night, the hostile mobs' AI was frozen too. Except for one thing.
The creepers.
They were in high contrast, had no head, walked like they had three legs, and didn't explode. Instead, when we got close to one, it made glitchy noises and spammed text such as "YOUR END IS NEAR"
Soon enough, the world starts decaying.
Blocks turned pitch black, and exploded into glitches before they disappeared.
Then the chat spams with "FILE OVERLOAD" in red text.
We're greeted with Entity 303. Or what looks like it.
It's eyes were gone, and it was flashing with binary numbers and glitches, including a green glitch rectangle on one of its "eyes" that didn't go away.
We didn't know what to do, so we just stared at it for three minutes.
Then it disappeared and said "Look behind you, look what mess you caused..."
I look over, and Alex... is dead.
His eyes were gouged out, his head was ripped off, a massive "256" was engraved in his stomach, and all his limbs were severed.
I was going to scream, but before the thought even came, his corpse disappeared and it was only bloodstains.
Why him out of all people?!
Now the game crashes, and the screen is pitch black and spams with "YOUR FAULT"
But then, I grabbed a mallet. Alex's parents were gone for a while.
I smashed the console into bits.
Suddenly, Siri turned on from my phone, and said in the most monotonous voice ever: "5555555555 5 5 55 5 5 5 5 5 555 256"
I got very scared
"44444 4 444 4 4 444 4 256"
I clutched the mallet tightly
"33333 3 3333 3 3 333 3 33 256"
I was sweating from head to toe.
"222 22 2 22 2 2 256"
I clutched the mallet as hard as I could.
"1111111 1 1 1 1 111 256 T̷̼̳̫̪͋̓̌̄U̸̺̻R̶̞̪̣̳̼̼̫̀̅̄͗̾̽͠N̴̮̪̳͔̆ ̵͍̯̥̮̄͐͝Á̸̮̱̲̣̝̺̽́̌͗͘̕͝R̷̘̠̺͉̈́͘͠O̵̠̭̼̾́̆̏̄̀U̸̪̍̏͋͘͠N̴̡̨͓̻̻͇̈́͋͛̈̚̕D̵̲͔̩̭̆́"
So I looked behind...
