The Slimes are coming!

Made by Sloth845

It all started on a sunny afternoon in the town of Ronton. A man named Fredric walked up to the mayor's office. He had hair the color of sand, a square face, and always wore a slime pendant, the symbol of his people. and he was the town's best miner. “Sir! A new cave has been found! With diamond!” “Well then, I issue you and a team of explorers to get the diamond. “Yes sir!” and so, Fredric set off with James, Pat, Adrian, and Jim, into the cave. They had made houses in these caves, for they would be here a while, a couple months or so. They were more like holes in the wall, but the men preferred to say houses. One day, Jim didn’t come back from mining. They set out to search for him. All that they found was a trail of slime, across the floor of the tunnel. “Jim? Where are ye?” no answer. They decided to go back to bed and search in the morning. In the morning, they saw about ten slimes outside the doors to their “houses”. No one dared go out. Then in the midst, they saw Jim, moaning on the ground, covered in slime. He was twitching, and growing, and slime started to ooze out of him. “Jim! NOO!” it was too late, he turned to them, with two black, beady eyes. For the next week, no one left the houses. But food was running low, so finally, James ventured out to the storeroom. He ran out immediately, chased by one of the slimes, he yelled, “THE FOOD, ITS ALL TURNED TO SLIMY MUCK!” he then turned around, and threw his sword at the chasing slime, killing it. “Still,” I said, “food’s food” and we all started eating the goop. After two days, James and Adrian were both slimes, and we were sick and turning. We had no way out. “It was the slime we ate” Pat said, “We must go back and warn the town!” so we headed back. About halfway there a skeleton had shot Pat in the heart, killing him. I was alone, and half slime. I was nearly at the end when everything started to get blurry. It all had a green tint to it. I felt for my sword, realizing my arms were shrinking, turning to stubs, the last thing a saw were two children walking into the cave… “Come on Andrew! Look at the diamonds in there! Get the supplies, we’ll make camp in the tunnel for the month….” Then it all disappeared. And he was never heard from again...
