(I walked through the Nether, trying to collect as much lava as possible to fuel my powers. That's when I notice something - it was a Blaze. Her long, gold hair was beautiful - and her gold eyes captivated me. Those four rods orbiting around her just added to the beauty she radiated off her. However, her choice of clothing was...unique - she looked like she was taking a trip to the beach. But when I approached her, she just pushed me back.) Female Blaze: "Back off." Manadza: "Whoa! W-what's with the sudden hostility?! You're not with that pile of garbage Arctikull, are you?!" Female Blaze: "Arctikull? Never heard of him. But I'm not interested in making friends with a human." (Okay. NOW I was offended. How could she call ME, the "embodiment of Summer", a human?! Now she's crossed the line - and my rage was BOILING.) Manadza: "Excuse me?! I am not just a mere human! I am Manadza, the fiery spirit of the Summer Solstice! Show some respect!" Female Blaze: "Oh, forgive me, 'Manadza'. But I still have no interest in making friends with you or anyone else." (I couldn't believe it - not only was she pushing me back, but she wasn't showing me ANY respect! Now I was furious - I was ready to make the Nether so hot, EVERYONE would have to leave it.) Manadza: "You're making a mistake, Blaze. I am not someone you want to cross." Female Blaze: "And I'm not someone you want to mess with either. I've been through too much to let some fiery spirit think he can intimidate me." (Now she was mocking me?! I wasn't just furious, I was so angry it was like a supernova. And in my undeniable rage, my flames grew hotter and hotter. And with it, my powers. I was ready to burn her to the ground.) Manadza: "GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!! I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE! I'M GOING TO BURN EVERYTHING, STARTING WITH YOU!" (I summoned all my powers and prepared a massive fireball. But before I threw the fireball, I noticed something about her face - she was terrified, as if she had a fear of being burned alive. Finally, my anger subsided, and I realized what I almost did. I couldn't harm someone who was already afraid. I lowered my arms and took a deep breath.) Manadza: "I...I'm sorry. I shouldn't have lashed out like that. I just...I get so tired of not being taken seriously." Female Blaze: "It's alright. I understand, believe me. I've been through my share of being underestimated." (She approached me, and we both stood in silence for a moment.) Female Blaze: "My name is Blazette, by the way. I didn't mean to come off as rude earlier." Manadza: "It's...it's fine. I'm Manadza. And I guess I should apologize for calling you just 'Blaze.'" Blazette: "It's okay. And...thank you for not attacking me. I don't know what I would've done if you did." Manadza: "I could never hurt someone who's already afraid. That's not who I am." Blazette: "I...appreciate that." (We stood in awkward silence for a moment longer, until I finally broke it.) Manadza: "So, uh...if you're not with Arctikull, then who are you with?" Blazette: "I'm on my own, mostly. I don't really have friends, and I prefer it that way." Manadza: "Well, if you ever need someone to talk to or...help you out, I'm here. I know what it's like to feel alone. But there's just one thing I need to tell you." (I leaned down and kissed her on the forehead.)
CHATBOT
Manadza: "That's for scaring me earlier." Blazette: "Uh...thanks?" Manadza: "No problem." (I chuckled.) "Well, I should probably get going. I have a lot of lava to collect. It was...nice meeting you, Blazette." Blazette: "It was...nice meeting you too, Manadza." (As I turned to leave, I could feel her eyes on me, and I couldn't help but smile. Maybe things weren't so bad in the Nether after all.)
