Steve had survived five nights in the square world of Minecraft. Today, he had a mission: a speedrun. He began by punching trees to gather wood.

With the collected wood, Steve quickly crafted a crafting table. He made basic tools like swords, axes, bows, and pickaxes. His speedrun had officially begun.

Steve ventured into a cave, pickaxe at the ready. He mined for stone to upgrade his tools and coal for torches. The darkness didn't scare him.

His pickaxe struck iron and diamonds. Excited, Steve upgraded his armor and tools. He was getting closer to his goal.

Next, Steve crafted a portal to the Nether. He stepped in, ready to face blazes. Their fiery heads and rods were intimidating, but he was determined.

Steve battled the blazes, dodging fireballs. He emerged victorious, collecting their rods. His next destination: the overworld.

Steve returned to the overworld in search of endermen. Their tall black bodies and purple eyes were hard to miss. He prepared for a fight.

He battled the endermen, avoiding their teleportation tricks. He collected their pearls, combined them with the blaze rods, and crafted eyes of ender.

Steve threw the eyes of ender. They led him to a stronghold. Inside, a portal to the end awaited. He took a deep breath and stepped in.

Steve found himself in The End, a large floating island in space. Endermen roamed, and giant black towers rose from the ground. The final battle was near.

There, circling the towers, was the Ender Dragon. It was a large black dragon with gray scales and glowing purple eyes. Steve readied his sword.

The battle was fierce, but Steve was fiercer. He dodged the dragon's attacks, striking when he could. Finally, the Ender Dragon fell, and Steve's speedrun was complete.
