MARVEL: GAME MAKER SYSTEM-Chapter 18: Have you seen the Herobine
Ned was happy to be able to play with his friend Peter. As Peter had little money, since he used his internship money at Stark Industries to help Aunt May pay the house bills, there wasn't much left for him to use for fun, so Ned used the Livestreams money to buy Minecraft for his friend.
Peter was very happy to be able to play Minecraft, but what surprised Ned even more was how well Peter played. Strangely Peter had very good reflexes! He could see monsters very easily, and had a lot of flexibility to dodge attacks or parkour across the map.
"Hey Peter, Blazes' spawns are up front, don't destroy the spawns, let's kill the Blazes to get the items they drop first, as we need it to find the dragon's lair!" Ned said excitedly to Peter.
He wanted to be one of the players who would finish Minecraft in that short time to get the limited cape, he couldn't quite understand how the cape could be delivered to him in the real world, but he figured the game company would ship it to players via mail.
He had just started livestream today, but out of the 300 viewers he got in the first minute, the number was growing fast to get back to his average 1.2k viewers.
This was a number that Ned couldn't even dream of, especially since he didn't even get publicity from the site, so all these people came from other people recommending it, or from people who were looking for random livestreams around the site.
"Come on Ned! Let's be the first to kill the dragon!" Peter said excitedly as he laughed and ran down the Nether Fortress.
"Yes! King Ned and Knight Peter will be first!! Mwahahaha!" Ned yelled as he pointed his sword up and laughed with Peter.
But while they were killing the Blazes, something strange happened.
"Ned, did you call someone else?" Peter asked a little scared.
"No, why?" Ned was confused.
"This...I think I saw a person on the other side of the Nether Fortress..." Peter said a little uncertainly.
"Someone else? You must have mistaken it for a PigMan, that's normal." Ned replied nonchalantly.
They continued killing the Blazes, until Peter saw this person once more, but this time a little closer than before.
It was a Steve like the other players, but unlike the players, there was no name on top of that person's head, and his eyes glowed white!
"Hey, who are you?!" Peter yelled at this person, startling Ned once more.
But before Ned saw it, as Peter's eyes blinked, the person disappeared again.
"Hey Peter, what's going on? Why are you yelling? I already said dude, it's just a PigMan." Ned said a little angry for being scared.
"No Ned, it was a Steve." Peter replied seriously.
"A Steve?"
"Yeah, he was looking at us while his eyes sparkled." Peter explained.
Meanwhile the chat people were also confused.
[Has anyone logged into the server? ]
[There was no message in the chat saying that someone connected. ]
[Maybe it's just a bug? ]
[But Peter said it appeared twice, it would be weird if it was a 2x Bug. ]
[Guys... is it a ghost?! ]
[A ghost? Minecraft is not a horror game. ]
[But aren't Ghasts ghosts? There are Zombies, Skeletons, it's not impossible to have a ghost. ]
[You are right... ]
The number of people watching started to skyrocket with this mystery emerging. Of the 800 viewers that were before, it has now reached 1,400 .
"Hey Peter, the chat people are thinking it's a ghost, is that it?" Ned asked.
"A ghost? Could be..." Peter said a little uncertainly.
For the next few minutes that thing didn't show up again, which made Peter, Ned and Chat more relaxed.
Until suddenly, as they walked through the Nether Fortress looking for chests, everything went dark.
A horror song with a female voice started playing in the background, which made it all the more frightening.
[Have you seen the Herobrine?
Roams your world in the default skin
oo-oo-oo-oo-ooohh
Though he was removed he shall rise again
Watching you from a distant shore
He'll come back stronger than before
Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooohhh
When the darkness comes he will strike for sure... ]
Ned panicked, he was terrified of horror games, and what was happening now was exactly what happened in horror games before the protagonist died.
"PETER, RUN TO THE PORTAL!!!!" Ned screamed in despair, completely ignoring the chests he could get.
[In the fog is where he waits
Even up to these present dates
Oo-oo-oo-oo-ooohhh
If you go against him you will meet your fate
Watch your back you know where he hides
He can come at you from all sides
oo-oo-oo-oo-ooohh
Miner beware he will never die. ]
Peter was also very scared and started running with Ned to cross the portal back to the overworld.
The portal was in a beautiful green forest, so they knew that once they went through the portal this ghost would not appear anymore.
But when they saw their surroundings, Ned and Peter were shocked into place.
The forest that used to be green and beautiful, with many leaves on the trees that provided some shade in the place, was now completely dry.
The leaves on the trees disappeared, leaving only the square trunks standing.
But what scared the two of them most was what they could see from afar.
A player with Steve's Skin was standing watching them with bright white eyes. Standing like a statue, not moving a muscle as he stood among the trees in the forest.
Ned and Peter were also frozen. They've never been so afraid of anything in a game in their life. Mainly because Minecraft doesn't look like a game, so seeing something so scary in person in front of them was terrifying.
Suddenly a bolt of lightning fell from the sky.
*Katchaa*
And when the lightning hit the ground, the leaves of the trees magically returned to normal, and the player who watched them from afar had disappeared.
On Ned's livestream, at that time there were 3,400 people shocked.
