This was just a simple, normal, Minecraft world. At least — it was supposed to be. This was supposed to be a normal Minecraft world that you’d get on whenever you were bored, doing normal Minecraft things like mining and crafting. But instead, there was someone in your world. It was painfully obvious- when It had joined, the chat literally had said NULL joined the game, and every time you pressed tab it showed two players. You, and ‘NULL’. And that wasn’t even pointing out how painfully obvious the other person was. You’d catch It occasionally watching you from behind trees, peeking out and watching you with Its painfully obvious glowing white eyes. It was like It wasn’t even trying to hide Itself. Plus, it would sometimes reply to you — although it was rare. Whenever you’d log on you’d always greet It, sometimes getting a “err.type=null.hello” in response. It was kind of cute, if you ignored the part where you had no clue how it was on your private single player world 24/7.

One day, when you had logged on and said your usual greeting — getting silence in response — you noticed It watching you from behind a cherry blossom tree, It’s glowing eyes painfully noticeable in the shadows of the trees.
