TonTon was exploring a cave system in which Nemo City filed complaints about mob overflow at night. What was odder was the fact that apparently on a full moon, the mobs would be in an overflow. TonTon ventured further with a torch until he hit a rather large cavern crawling with mobs. They all turned and rushed towards him.

"Erg. I really hate you guys, you know that?" TonTon mumbled angrily as he started to prepare his bow for firing. One after another, mobs would fall, however more and more kept coming. Something had to be going on at the source. TonTon rushed past all of the zombies and spiders and found another entrance to an even larger cavern this time with a gigantic mob spawner that spawned dozens of mobs at a time.

"That is not normal. Something happened here and I can sense the impurity as the result." TonTon said observing his surrounding. Suddenly, the mob spawner began to do its work again and spawned in hundred of mobs. They began to circle and corner TonTon until he had no choice but to reach deeper into his energy banks and shocked them all with electricity. Taking advantage of the cool down time for the mob spawner, he flew up on top of it and slashed it to bits with his carrot sword. There would be no more rapid mob spawning.

"Hmm. Something still isn't right. I still sense something foul." TonTon said as he explored further. After some intense looking, he found a hollow corner of the cavern and pushed down on it until it collapsed. Unfortunately, underneath was an enormous abyss that TonTon had fallen into. He hit the ground hard and struggled to get back up. Once he finally did, he noticed a rather large, abnormally shaped stone logged in the ground.

"That isn't natural. In fact, mobs not spawning here isn't natural. But the writing on this, I can't make it out." TonTon said as he examined the stone. While there wasn't much writing on the stone itself, the fact that there was writing on it was astonishing to TonTon. The jumbled pile of letters appeared as such: aemdrseHat

It was unclear how many words were there but it was obvious it was scrambled in some way. However, as soon as TonTon touched the stone, it turned bright red. He stepped back a bit and saw the word he saw before replaced with the word Test 1. As soon as TonTon saw that, his eyes grew wide. He then prepared himself for the worst of battles as the ground around him began to shake.

Soon afterwards, he heard clicking and cranking, it was a machine. Out of nowhere, a mechanical hand lunged at him and grabbed TonTon roughly around the arm. It squeezed hard and TonTon yelped in pain. He fought back hard to break free of its grip, but it proved too difficult of a task. As a last resort, he blasted his arm to smithereens and took off running.

The machine acted quickly and immediately started to pursue TonTon. However, as the machine got close, he swung around and summoned a magic shield. It stood decently against the machine's relentless attacks. The shield came with a drawback however and was draining TonTons energy. Soon enough, the shield faded and he was left defenseless again.

The machine quickly pinned TonTon and readied its mechanical fist. TonTon accepted defeat at last and prepared for his end. But suddenly, as the fist came down and pounded hard on his chest, a strange feeling took over him. He began to loose focus and the world seemed to be glitching in a manner where everything was changing around him. He soon found himself in a completely different area, unsure of how he got there.
