Introduction

It was a sunny afternoon when little Peter grew bored of his toys. He booted up his computer, hoping to find a new game to play. When he clicked on the Minecraft icon, he was surprised to find himself suddenly transported into the game!

Chapter 1: First Prey

Peter looked around at the colorful blocky world. It was just getting to be dusk in the game. «What should I do first?» he wondered aloud. Peter decided to gather some wood before night fell, so he punched a tree with his fist. To his surprise, the tree actually broke apart into blocks! Soon he had an inventory full of wooden planks.

Chapter 2: Mortal Danger

Just then, Peter heard a strange noise off in the distance. He peered into the dimming light and saw two glowing eyes peering back at him from the shadows. «What’s that?» he gasped, suddenly afraid. It was almost dark and he was alone – he needed to find shelter, fast! But where could he hide from the unknown creature of the night?

Peter’s heart pounded as the glowing eyes came closer. He had to find shelter, and fast! He spotted a small cave opening near the edge of the forest. «It will have to do for now,» he gulped.

Gathering his courage, Peter dashed for the cave as the first stars began to appear in the sky. Just as he dove inside, he heard a low growl from the darkness. He spun around to see two eyes peering in – it was a wolf!

But this wolf didn’t seem friendly like the ones in storybooks. It snapped its jaws, trying to reach little Peter. He scrambled back further into the cave. «Shoo, go away!» he yelled, but the wolf was stubborn. It kept trying to squeeze inside.

Peter knew he had to do something before the wolf broke through. He still had some of the planks from the trees in his pocket. Quickly, he used them to build a little door for the cave entrance. Just in time, too – it was now fully night.

Chapter 3: Meet Steve

As Peter leaned against the earthen wall, catching his breath, he realized with a start that he was no longer alone in the dark cave. Two glowing eyes stared back at him from the shadows… but what new creature had found him here? Peter shuddered, not knowing what dangers this strange new world might hold after dark!

Peter froze, too afraid to move as the glowing eyes watched him from the darkness. Then, to his surprise, a small voice spoke: «Hello! I’m Steve.»

A boy like himself emerged from the shadows. He was made entirely of blocks, just like everything else in this world. «Don’t be scared, I won’t hurt you,» Steve said gently. «I live here in this cave. What are you doing so far from your village?»

Peter explained how he came to be here through his computer game. Steve nodded understandingly. «Minecraft can be a scary place when you’re new! But I’ll help you learn. First, we need to block up this entrance so no monsters can get in.»

Chapter 4: First collaboration

Working together, the boys used more wooden planks to seal the cave securely. With their new door in place, Peter began to feel safer. «Now try to get some sleep,» Steve said. «Tomorrow I’ll show you how to find food and make better tools. Then maybe we can explore the lands outside together!»

Exhausted, Peter lay down on the hard stone floor. As he drifted off to sleep, the sounds of strange creatures moaning in the night no longer seemed quite so frightening. He was glad to have made his first new friend in this puzzling place called Minecraft. But what other adventures would tomorrow bring?
