The beasts closed in, drooling with impatience. Suddenly, Steve's pick axe was yanked out of his hands and whirled, landing with a sickening CHOP. Steve swiveled around, expecting to see menacing monsters, but saw Alex instead. Alex tapped her foot, smirking.
"Lovely. I saved your life," Alex said, cocking her head.
Steve sputtered, but Alex pulled him away from the lava, away from the precious gold ore, and towards an opening. Steve and Alex climbed through the caves, mining as they went, until they reached the daylight. Wait no, the moonlight. A mass of things—no, monsters!—tromped towards the cave, their eyes glowing menacingly. Alex and Steve had no choice but to turn back, as the dark, brooding monster army descended on them.
"Oh no…" whispered Steve. Then they ran. And were crushed by the army.
THE END!

:> Love, Alexi

"MOOOOOOOOOOM! ALEXI COMPLETELY RUINED MY STORY! I WANTED A HAPPY ENDING! SHE LOVES MORBID STUFF!"
"Steven Craftimine! Stop complaining about Alexi. She's in New York, remember?!?"
