in pain. Steve only smiled as the dragon flew away from his new perch.
“Never underestimate me Dragon! That is precisely what got Herobrine killed last time! The one who set you free? He is worthless in every way, weak and thinks himself my superior…he is wrong. I will kill you, then hunt him down and end this once and for all!”
Steve felt the new confidence bolster his resolve as he drew his bow, enchanted with great power, it was stronger than any other weapon he had in his inventory. He knocked an arrow to the string and drew it back, aiming for merely a second before letting the arrow fly.
The enchanted bolt found its mark in the nearest crystal and it shattered. The Ender Dragon let out a painful wale as the crystal shattered.
“You insolent fool! I am older than time! I am the very darkness you fear, the father of death and creator of destruction itself! How dare you even attempt to stand against me!”
Steve didn’t waste any more time bothering with the dragon. He knocked another arrow to his bow and took aim at another crystal, letting the bolt fly and smash its target into oblivion.
Each time Steve destroyed a crystal the dragon let out more and more painful cries. Several times the dragon came close to knocking Steve off of his pillar. The battle was going on far longer than Steve had anticipated and his energy was beginning to wane.
Finally Steve fired off his arrow at the last target. It missed and the Dragon was coming right for him! Steve dropped his bow off the pillar and jumped, grabbing hold of his ladder and sliding down quickly to the ground just as the Ender Dragon destroyed the top of the pillar he had been standing on.
“Insolent worm! There is no ending to this where you live to tell the tale! Come and meet your maker!” The dragon was very angry and frightened that this little adventurer might actually cause him harm.
Steve was so weak he could barely lift his bow back off the ground but he knew he had to continue. He grabbed his bow and ran; trying to make it to the last crystal before the dragon could get to him. The monster was weak but even still he could easily end Steve with a single blow. The last crystal sat atop a short Pillar, only a few blocks high. Steve only had one arrow left in his inventory, one last Crystal and the dragon to slay. There was only one shot at this.
Steve positioned himself on the far side of the Pillar and knocked the arrow to his bow. The crystal sat between him and the Dragon as it flew towards him.
“Come to me dragon! Come and meet your doom!” Steve shouted out at the top of his lungs.
The dragon let out a horrific roar as it swooped down to devour the would be hero.
Steve let out a war cry as the dragon drew closer and closer.
With one last arrow he fired at the crystal. The bolt flew from his bow and it was as if the world was moving in slow motion.
The Ender Dragon, with mouth gaping in a roar, swooped low towards Steve. The bolt smashed through the Ender Crystal and continued to fly towards the dragon. Steve jumped out of the way, bow flying into the darkness. The arrow and shards of the crystal lodged themselves directly into the eye of the dragon.
With a deafening scream of pain the dragon crashed into the ground sending blocks flying as he ground to a halt, writhing in pain. With all the crystals destroyed he was weak, vulnerable and the arrow in his eye caused him great pain.
Weak, near death and ready to end this Steve struggled to his feet. Taking his sword from his inventory he hurried to the dragon as it clawed at its own eye trying to get the arrow out.
“How dare you!” The dragon’s voice was now weak and it no longer carried the power it once had. “You will pay for this you ant!”
Steve had had enough. “I told you dragon, I am going to kill you, then finish off Herobrine once and for all!”
Steve hefted his sword and brought it
