Blink

Today, something started talking to me. I was just standing on the roof of my shack, watching out for monsters because I didn't have a bed yet.

Hello, it said. But the voice didn't come from the game... Did it? I was surprised, because I didn't experience anything like this. Looking all around, I started typing a reply.

"Who are you?"I said, confused. "And where are you?"

Why, I'm the moon, it replied. I looked up, and the moon seemed to tilt a little, as if this was his way of saying hi. The middle of it seemed to retract a bit, making a darker hole in the middle. But then, a darkness started to close in, swallowing the stars in its path.

Then the moon blacked out for a little.

Sorry about that, it said. The moon reappeared slowly. But I was already leaving the game.

Because the way the darkness ran across the sky, the way the moon disappeared, that was almost like...

Almost like it was a blink.
