// Day 41?
//-----------------------------
I managed to avoid much of the rain by ducking under each tree... although that didn’t seem to help when the rain decided to start coming in sideways... this world must seriously hate me or something.
Eventually I came to an area in the forest that looked as if it had been clear-cut. In the center of the clear-cut was a long table surrounded by makeshift chairs each with a jack ‘o’ lantern sitting on them (the faces looked unnaturally happy almost as if they were forced to smile...) Wait no Twilight that’s silly, of course they were forced to smile, they’re jack ‘o’ lanterns. In front of the furthest chair sat a single cake with a sign posted on the chair’s back rest
It read:
OUR INSANITY MAKES HIM SMILE
Underneath that it had a smile drawn
It was written and drawn in what appeared to be blood, but again I only have black ink... I wonder if there are different coloured inks in this world
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This part was written later after finding safety
The cake exploded throwing confetti everywhere inside the cake remains there was a note.
The note read:
Congratulations you win!
Now...
(I turned the paper over and my heart nearly stopped)
RUN!
Suddenly my head began pounding and I could hear whispering, then screams I looked around and saw the jack 'o' lantern's faces had changed; some had become frowns whilst others appeared to become angered. Suddenly before me multiple shadows started materializing... monster upon monster began to form from the shadows and turn towards me.
I couldn’t move; I was frozen with fear by the sheer number of creepers, skelecolts, and zomponies. I know I had a sword, but there was no way a stone sword could hold up against all of them. It wasn’t until one of the skelecolts fired an arrow at me. It hit me in the shoulder and I screamed as i finally began to run. And did I run; I ran as fast as I could only fueled by fear and adrenaline.
I don’t know how long I ran, but I came upon an enormous tree easily three times taller than my library back home. If it wasn’t for the monsters chasing me and the need to get out of the freezing rain I would have stood there starring at it for hours.
With luck I found an entrance in one of the roots and made my way through it reaching a dead end with another sign as I approached it the whispering grew louder and more rapid.
The sign read:
NOT EVEN NOTCH CAN SAVE US!
Who the hay is Notch!?
When I read it the tree began to shake and then (where the sign had been) the wall opened up.
After I entered, the wall closed behind me. I remember my vision going hazy after I ripped the arrow out of my shoulder and then i blacked out.
