That voice.... I know that voice...

I rubbed my forehead. Good Lord... I swear...

There was a knock on my door.

"Come in?"

Virian shuffled in quietly. She paused and looked into the hallway outside my door.

"Is someone here?" I asked.

She looked at me nervously.

"I-I don't know why you invite this, this- thing over. He disgusts me!" She huffed.

"What, Trooper?"

"Y-Yes!"

"I'll talk to him."

I stood from my bed and headed towards her.

"Virian?" I whispered.

"Yes?"

"You can head down to the village if you want. Just be back before sunset. You know what I mean, yes?"

Her face lit up.

"Really?!"

"Yeah, yeah. Go on, enjoy yourself."

She held back a squeal and rushed out the door and down the hall. I walked out of my room and looked around. I expected ol' Trooper to be sitting at the dining table or in the kitchen eating, but this time he was sitting in the sun room. I walked over to him. He was typing furiously on a Miniature Redstone Powered Computer, MR-PC as he called it.

I sat down across from him.

"What's going on?"

He slammed his computer shut.

"Something went wrong."

"What?"

"My invention.... When I activated it, it vanished."

"Really?"

"Yes! Also, I've been picking up a new life form on the server. Like a mob.... Similar to Dumbpasta, but less vulnerable."

I frowned. What could have... wait.

"Trooper... Can you show me this new mob?"

He nodded and flipped open the MR-PC. He quickly typed in a few lines of code. He spun the computer to face me. He pointed at a red dot inside of a large structure in the Nether.

"I've been monitoring this one for a while. It doesn't move at all! It just sits there. And the mobs don't do ANYTHING to it. They don't even get near it!"

I stared at it for a long time. Something was very strange about it. I shook my head. Trooper pulled his computer towards him.

"Now..." He began. "How is my invention doing?"
