I Turned Into a Minecraft Chicken

Wil Zombie

‘Cluck! Cluck cluck, cluck.’ 
Oh, sorry. Sometimes I forget who I’m talking to and I speak in Chicken. But you’re a human. A person. So, I will speak in human. English, to be precise. 
This is the story of how I turned into a Minecraft chicken. I wish it was a different story. I wish I turned into a Minecraft zombie or enderman or even the Enderdragon. 
But I didn’t turn into a zombie. I turned into a Minecraft chicken, possibly the most lame creature in all of Minecraftia. 
Well, that’s what I thought at the beginning. But I have changed my mind about chickens. We can do some pretty cool stuff. And that’s what this story is about.
