a "glitch" in the system

The truth?

Merlocks POV

GREAT GAMING TOASTERS!!!!!!
(Idk I thought of it XD)

NOW I KNOW WHY THIS CLAY FELLOW LOOKED SO FAMILIAR!!!!!!!!!

HE WAS MY SISTERS SON!!!!!!!!

that explains what happened after he disappeared when his mother was turned into stone....

but it seems his magic helped him into the system....

He's changed but still!!!

I fear I might have to make sure monstrux doesn't find out about this.....

"Clay can we... talk for a second?" I asked

Clay hesitated but nodded as if to say yes

Clays POV

Merlocks on to me......

This is not good

AT ALL

I PROMISED MYSELF NOT TO TELL A SINGLE PERSON MY IDENTITY!!!!!!!

BECAUSE THEN THEY WOULD BE TRYING TO GET ME TO JOIN THE WIZARDS COUNCIL AND START THE WHOLE WAR BETWEEN MONSTRUX AND THE KINGDOM ALL OVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!

I said something to merlock but it was to glitchy because of nerves.... luckily I think he understood me

And then we talked about the past.... when I was fully human

Of course i don't Remember much after using some big magic to get into the fortrex systems which uuuh.....

How do I put this....

I kinda sorta.... died?

It happened when I was running from a group of monsters

Of course I would have fought back!!!

But I was unarmed and pretty much helpless!

So I ran and i got hit in the leg with a magma ball or something?

And then I tripped and fell off a cliff into a stream

I'm guessing you probably can guess what happened next.....

Anyway after that I suddenly felt... wrong

As if I had no soul or emotions at all

But then I found the fortrex and became curious...

I found out how to get in and suddenly I felt a force pulling me into one of the screens!!

I couldn't break free!!!

After that everything was quiet

So I opened my eyes and saw a bunch of code around me....

I tried to touch some and it glitched as soon as I touched it.....

Then the world around me glitched a little

The thing was.....

I was trapped there

I couldn't escape!!!!

But as the years went by I saw I could control this code and..... with practice

I managed to create my own world in there

Where I could do what I wanted

It was my world

Where I was the one in control of everything!!!

But I did everything I could imagine!!

I even watched some of those knights while they did stuff to get ideas!!!!

I only managed to get at least 10 new things from all of them!!!

I eventually felt like I was going insane....

I had done everything

There was NOTHING else I could think of

So I made a way to escape my world and enter this one.....

But of course I miss my little world

But i don't at the same time!!

I like this one and I hope I can stay here longer

But as I said before....

It's only a matter of time....

Anyway I told merlock the whole story and about my little world

"It seems you found an unused program or what Ava likes to call it a non programmable source?"

"1 d0nT uNd3rstAanD tH4T e1ther...." (i don't understand that either) i said

Anyway merlock knows everything......

I just hope he can keep this a secret until I can get my old form back......
