3RD PERSON POV:


Lynix trembled as his eyes fluttered open, his head still pounding from the aftermath of being possessed moments prior.
Doni turned and stared at both Lynix, then the pendant a couple feet away from him. It was cracked twice, one jagged line running through the shiny coat of glass at the top where it looked to be an eye of ender.
Doni almost instantly went to go to Lynix, but Liger grabbed his shoulder as they exchanged nervous glances.

Kiply and Skiddzie ran over to Liger, dumbfounded he was back but quite overwhelmed and happy to see him. "You had me worried- that was NOT funny at all!" Kiply slurred out, hugging Liger tightly despite both of their dirtied states.
"Oh cmon, you can keep this man outta' this SMP! I'm just- proobablyyy down to eight ish lives.." Liger joked.
"What about Lynix?" Skiddzie turned, looking at the trembling blonde on the floor. He could barely sit up using his arms, but eventually did so.
"I think I should handle this.. This is my fault anyways." Doni pushed his way past Liger, stopping just to look at the pendant.
"Should I take that.. thing.. away from him first..?" Doni looked back at the trio, who turned and faced each other to mentally debate quickly.
"Maybe?" Skiddzie said, turning towards the pendant. "Wait.. Is it glowing again?"

Indeed it was, the pendant was illuminating again and a black figure appeared to everyone, now with reddish glowing eyes shining down at the necklace. Then, its eyes trailed to Lynix.
"Hey- HEY!" Liger yelled, quickly separating the figure from the rest of the group, happening to block its path to Lynix as well.
The figure seemingly rolled its eyes, and in a completely glitched put and disoriented voice, hissed; "I don't have time for this."

Ligers ears flicked back as his tail dropped to the floor. The figure raised one of its blackened, glitchy arms and the sky continued to darken. Much until thunder could be heard, and with a blink of an eye the wind around the members began to pick up.

It was almost like a reversed tornado- the winds were so strong it began to send little bits of dirt and gravel across the plains, making Skiddzie, Kiply and Liger retreat in a worried manner. The winds kept picking up, gusting air into Ligers face and pushing his whole body weight backwards until he hit Doni, and the two crashed out of the eye of the storm abruptly.

Now from the outside, there was grey and brown bits as well as dust cupping the specific area where Lynix was stood, as well as blocking anyone from the outside from coming in. Whirling and hissing sounds of ashes and ground begun to tore up as the Guide had created what seemed to have been a ring to block everyone from outside from interfering with whatever it was about to do to Lynix.
"Lynix is in trouble!" Kiply yelled, realizing the same thing as everyone else scrambled to piece together what was happening.
Rage ran around to the rest of the group, panting; "What IS that thing?! I just helped Bionic get Quiff back to his base and there's a giant tornado in the middle of spawn?!"
"It's the Guide!" Skiddzie yelled across to Rage, thunders and winds whirled and roared over their conversation. "I think it's trying to get Lynix back!"
"Not with me around it won't." Doni muttered, clear as day as he began to fight against the winds.

Each step pained him more than the last, the echoes of the others' voices telling him not to go into the storm were muffled the closer he got.
Each step he took reminded him sort of to be an ode to each memory he has with Lynix. It helped numb the ongoing and growing pain of debris hitting his face and wounds, especially considering one step into the strong torrential winds felt like trying to walk through a pit of quicksand.

.

The winds grew distant in which Doni's eyes widened. Around him the winds were still blocking view from both in and outside of the barrier it had created, but infront of him he saw the figure approaching Lynix, with balled up fists and not a nice looking posture.
"What is WRONG with you Lynix. I was making you someone you could've been all of this time.." The guide yelled, its voice warping and distorting angrily.
Doni turned to Lynix, which the blonde looked distraught and tired to another degree. "Your version of me isn't me, no matter how much you want it to be."
"It's too late." The voice glitched out at the last part, "You and I are the same, You are what I WANT YOU TO BE. I'm not letting you ruin my plans."
"No!" Lynix yelled, backing away as the figure followed him. "I'm not interested anymore!"
Eventually his back hit the edge of the storm, and the figure grabbed his torn up suit and threw him beside the pendant.

"You're nothing but a body I need now. We could've co-existed, Lynix, but now you're leaving me no choice.." The guide growled, beginning to approach Lynix again.
...
Doni had seen enough and glided in using his wings, blocking its path from Lynix despite the discomfort he was in. "Don't touch him, you pathetic excuse of a being." Doni snarled, baring his teeth. His wings fully blocked the Guide from Lynix.
"Why don't you be a good duck and move out of the way. Lynix did hurt you after all.. Why must you defend someone so- shameful?"
"He's nothing of what you're making him out to be." Doni snapped, shielding Lynix with one arm. "I won't allow you to take advantage of someone as.. deserving, as amazing as him again."
"Oho, how heartfelt.. MOVE." The Guide spat, the winds whirling louder as it became more agitated.

"Doni.. Just go, please.." Lynix whispered, holding Doni's arm with worry in his voice. "You don't know what this thing is capable of!"
"I'm not leaving you Lynix.. Not again." Doni turned back to the guide with little to no fear in his eyes unsympathetically. Leave? After all of this work, everything he's done to bring back the one person who he possibly neglected the most? Hell no. Not happening.

"Cute, cut to the chase, don't make me end  you here and now." The guide warned Doni for the last time threateningly, and Doni seemingly backed up with Lynix..
Lynix exposed himself back to the Guide timidly, but Doni swooped past Lynix, braced himself against the wall of wind and dove for the pendant as it almost sucked him out of the circle- but he managed to escape the winds before it caught him too closely, and he grabbed the cursed necklace then and there, holding it away from his neck as it glowed and swelled with the ominous green color that Doni now hated.

"Put that down, bird-brain." The Guide snapped, shoving Lynix to the side as he stumbled and managed to catch his breath..
Doni let a wide smile show on his face as he turned his arm with the pendant present, towards the wall of wind and debris. Since the airflow was pointed up, Doni had a perfect window to execute almost a picture perfect plan.
The Guides red, dead eyes widened as Lynix stood there shocked, realizing what he was about to do;

"Oh yeah, 'Guide?' I'm an Owl, Bitch."
With a flick of his hand, he threw the pendant into the storm, its green light visible through the cloudy mist of dirt and gravel; The practical twister threw it outside as the necklace shattered almost instantly upon impact, making the Guide screech in pain.

Doni ran over to Lynix and shielded him from the now collapsing storm, as it dissipated instantly after brief moments of the Guide shrieking in imminent pain.

The hissing and whirling faded into a dark starry night, leaving just the two men huddled together, and a broken pendant laid a few feet away from them.
