I was working on the machine.

I was almost completely done with it, and Nat already finished her half of the work. All that's left now is mine.

I was home alone. Every now and then, the lights would flicker, which I thought was weird. My cat, as always, sat on the couch beside me, sleeping to her heart's content. I didn't want to bother her. I thought about calling Nat over to see what I should do with the machine, but I thought better of it. I reached over and pet my cat until the sound of her purr filled the room.

Picking up my tablet, I went back to work on the project for science class.

When I spawned in, it was magnificent. We had crammed the whole thing into a single building, so it was a challenge to get anything done. We somehow managed. Nat and I used command blocks in the thing, and so when everything was switched on, it would make a giant statue of something. We still haven't thought of what. Nat wanted it to make a pig. I walked inside, figuring out what to do.

"We... are very interested in your machine." A message sat there, in the chatbox.

I didn't write that. I replied:

"Nat? What are you doing?"

"I am not the one you call... Nat." It said.

"Who are you?"

"I need a body... and your machine is my way to get it."

The hell...? I whispered to myself. I was in the middle of typing a reply when there was a knock on the door. I ran to it and unlocked it, opening it up.

"Val," Nat siad, smiling. She was standing there, her backpack hanging by her side. "How's the project?"

"About that..." I motioned for her to come inside. Nat set her backpack down by the shoerack. We sat down on the couch, and my cat jumped up to Nat's lap. She started purring.

I took out my tablet. "Do you know who-" I was cut off as I saw what was happening. A giant was already being made, standing right outside the building.

"Oh, that's cool." Nat said.

"No, no. I didn't even finish the machine."

"Who did?"

The giant had just finished making itself, and the giant was wearing something. Something yellow.

'I am... Rausten. '

The message no longer came from the tablet.
