(This was written on 2014-09-28. It's from Bob's perspective, and uses a previous idea of how Dieamond's transportation service would work.)
I was created in a somewhat unusual village.
There was this one villager, Mr.Jones, who lived in a fenced-off house with a nether brick roof. The yard was filled with red sand, cacti, and dead bushes. He seemed to have an obsession with bones-- his house was filled with bones and paintings of skeletons, and skulls were mounted on his fence.
There were also two snow golems: Henry, and his cousin Henrietta, who lived in tall ore block structures.
Once, when I was looking through Mr. Jones's house, I found a book:
--
Dieamond's Railway
By Dieamond
Need to get somewhere quickly? Stuck in a cave with no idea how to get anywhere? Then call on Dieamond's Railway! Just mine a "D" shape, like so:

And drop a diamond on it. Dieamond will come, and she'll take you to her railway, where you can go practically anywhere!
Anyone is welcome to travel on Dieamond's Railway!

One day, a horde of endermen attacked my village. I tried to defend the villagers, but they were all killed-- except Mr. Jones. The endermen started building a wall around the village and, along with Henry and Henrietta, I fled into a nearby cave.
Fortunately, Henrietta had some wood on her (other than her arms, of course), and we were able to make some tools and torches.
We wandered deeper into the cave, and one day we found diamonds. As we mined them, I remembered the advertisement that I had found in Mr. Jones's chest. I told my friends about it, and they agreed that we should try summoning Dieamond.
I mined out a"D" shape, and Henry dropped a diamond on it.
Instantly, all our torches dropped off the walls, and we heard a shriek. A dark, hunchbacked figure came out of the darkness, and I saw that it had diamond shards as teeth, which looked like they had been hammered into the creature's bleeding gums.
"Are you Dieamond?" asked Henrietta.
"Yes," said the creature. "Come. I will take you to the railway." She came over to me and picked me up, along with the diamond which was still sitting on the "D."
"I can only take one at a time," said Dieamond. "And you two snow golems will each have to drop a diamond, so I can find my way back."
Suddenly, Dieamond and I were surrounded by blackness and gray particles. Then we were standing in a mineshaft.
"Hang on, I'll go get your friends." Dieamond faded out of sight.
A few seconds later she was back with Henry, and then Henrietta.
"So, where do you want to go?" asked Dieamond.
"Somewhere far away," said Henrietta.
"A village, preferably," I put in.
"OK. Hold on a moment. I have to write some directions; there are some splits in the track along the way." She took took out a book a wrote in it for a bit, dropped it toward me, and placed a minecart on an unpowered rail. "Since you have the directions, iron golem, why don't you go first?"
I climbed into the minecart, Dieamond pressed a button, and I was off. Henry and Henrietta followed.
The ride was long but uneventful, and eventually we got to a stairway, which led to a cave. Light was visible around a corner. We went toward it, and came out next to a village.
We live there now, and nothing bad has happened...yet, anyway.
