I woke up to the sound of the server alerting me that a player had joined.

' [SERVER: SKIDDZIE [idk his user] HAS JOINED THE GAME.] ' 

The message read.

I squinted and brushed my messy hair out of my vision using my wing and stretched, I was the last one to wake up seemingly.
I felt like a car had ran over me as I got up and changed out of the bloodied clothes I had on from the day before, and I had little to no energy to walk up the stairs to meet the others at the top of Bionics base; Yet as I worked my way up there, I saw Skiddzie holding a strange book as he talked to the others.


"Oh, morning sleepyhead." Bionic joked, turning around as I made my presence known with a yawn. "Morning.." I groggily replied. "What's with the book?" I ask, still practically half asleep.

"I'm actually quite glad you asked Doni!" Skiddzie grins. He wipes a whole coat of dust off of the book he was holding into Kiply's direction, causing her to swat the airborne dust bunnies away from her face in a cough.
Skiddzie walked a bit away from the door and placed the book on a table positioned near Bionics room, opening it as everyone circled around curiously.

The front of the book read 'Beta - Alpha Minecraft Concept Items'. I looked confused as I briefly pushed past Rage; "What's this for? We aren't even in Beta Minecraft anymore."
"No, but this item Rage mentioned Lynix having.. It reminds me of something from this book." Skiddzie explained, we all fell into silence as he flipped past the pages, I saw a few noticeable items like the bedrock nether reactor and some scratched mob eggs. Then.. There it was. The item, the pendant.


Kiply pointed to the page and the eye at the center as she repeatedly tapped the paper

Kiply pointed to the page and the eye at the center as she repeatedly tapped the paper. "This one. This is it, I- I remember it."
I nodded. "Kiply is right, that's the thing on Lynix's neck as if it were a part of his normal clothes.." I murmured, sinking back down.
Skiddzie grimaced. "This is an item known as 'The Talker'.."
"That's a horrible name for a Minecraft item." Rage inputs, causing a giggle from Bionic and Kiply.
"Let me finish idiots-" Skiddzie facepalms; "Whatever. It was gonna be in an update with revamped Witches as well as other magical items being added, but the concept was rejected due to test runs going south, apparently." Skiddzie read, Quiffs finger following along the line so he could focus.
"What are some of the perks of this thing?" Bionic asks, keeping Quiff steady by holding his waist.
"Huh. It has the curse of binding effect, yet that wasn't added into the game until much later. It also states it gives boosts as well as some 'helpful guide' of some sort??"
"What kind of guide? Is there anything from the test runs?" Quiff inputs, Skiddzie turns the page and skims through the lines; "Here. A few testers experienced 'Aggression, Arsonistic desires, hallucinations and delusions.'" Skiddzie read. "So there's a complete chance Lynix isn't himself.. I knew Lynix wasn't this cruel under his right mind." Kiply pondered. I snapped slightly; "His eyes are green as well. It's obvious he's being controlled, even if we couldn't tell he'd never even attempt to kill anyone for that matter!"
"Jeez Doni, calm down. Nobody was purposely insulting him." Rage added snarkily, I had to fully stop myself from yelling at him. My eyes flickered red- I could tell I was going to shift from myself to Dr. Donji at any moment if Rage kept upsetting me. Bionic dismissively flicked his hand at us; "How about me and Skiddzie look over this thing whilst everyone else just does their own thing. God this tension is choking me." He sighed.
"That's fine.. I need some space anyway." Rage scoffs, walking out of Bionics base with his tongue tied. Kiply shrugged and mentioned how she did need to put mending on some of her armor, she'd be back soon.
"I guess I'm gonna go back to the lab.." I pondered to myself.

..


It was a quick flight back to the lab and I quickly B-lined to my room, I urgently put on my lab coat and medical mask before I felt myself lose control of my body from the sudden mood shift.


...


DR. DONJI'S POV:


I finally regained control of my body after a few moments, however, I had to get up off of the floor since the blackout occurred throughout the entire body. I stretched my wings out with a guttural groan; "Jeez.. Did Doni get hit by a car or something?" I ask, popping my knuckles before adjusting my clothes accordingly.
"I need to prepare Doni to face this as much as possible.. which requires weapon testing. I hope these animals don't fight me this time.. not that they ever did." I sinfully smiled, placing down a chest from my creative menu with a couple of enchantment books and various guns from a mod Doni added onto the server much earlier.
Obviously, the most powerful item here was the bazooka, but there was a few I wanted to test.. if I found weapons he didn't expect me to have, then possibly we could turn the tables and actually have a chance against Lynix.
