Sky glared up at King Squid as it appeared before their cell.

"Hello Jerome, enjoying your upgrades?" It sneered.

Jerome growled and lunged for it through the bars, his claws flashing in the torch light.

"Jerome stop!" Sky exclaimed, grabbing Jerome and pulling him back.

Jerome huffed and glared at the King, lightly pushing Sky away from him.

The king grinned evilly and pulled out a small silver whistle.

Jerome's eyes widened as he backed to the corner of the cell, placing his hands over his ears.

"Don't you dare blow into that. Please, Notch, don't do it."

The whistle was brought to the king's mouth and blown into.

Sky looked at Jerome confused, not hearing a sound, but he barely had time to open his mouth to scream as Jerome pounced on top of him.

The bacca growled anomalistically, his grey eyes now a deep blue color.

"Jerome what the nether?!" The General exclaimed, struggling against the bacca's weight.

"Jerome is no more Sky. He's with me now."

"No! Jerome listen to me, you've got to fight back, please!" Sky yelled frantically.

Jerome just snarled and snapped at the general, his teeth long and sharp.

The sound of a faint whistle blow rang in Sky's ears and Jerome's eyes changed to their murky grey again.

He shook his head with a groan and rolled off of Sky, who crawled backwards away from the bacca.

"You b*stard." Jerome growled, gripping his head and squeezing his eyes shut tightly.

The king smirked and pocketed the small object.

"Listen to the rules, and I won't give you a massive migraine again. Got it?"

Jerome growled, but nodded reluctantly.

"Speak bacca. You are capable of doing so."

"Yeah. I'll listen to your... rules." he grumbled.

"Good. Sky?"

The General glared. "Why should I?"

The king sighed and ordered a squid over.

"Grab another one and throw them into the room." He ordered.

The general's eyes widened as the second squid slithered off and ran up to the bars.

"No! Leave my recruits alone!" He growled.

The king chuckled and slapped Sky with one of his tenticals.

"Do you accept the rules?"

Sky spat on the floor and glared at the king.

"Will you free my recruits?"

"Only if you surrender your army to me."

The General roared and clawed at the king.

"The more you glare at me the more recruits you hurt Sky." the king sneered, walking off.

"We will get our revenge squid! You'll be sorry for messing with Sky Army!" Sky yelled after King Squid.

He cursed under his breath and turned to Jerome.

"What the Nether was that?!"

Jerome whimpered and moved farther away from the enraged General.

"Sky I know you're mad... give me a second..." He sighed.

Sky balled his hands into fists and punched the wall, ignoring the pain that laced up his arm.

He cursed loudly at the squids, hoping the king would hear him.

"I hate them. I hate them. I hate them!" He growled, slamming his fist into the wall again.

"Sky, calm down bud."

"Says the guy who went feral on me a few minutes ago!" Sky snapped at him.

Jerome whimpered and backed away as Sky sighed heavily.

"Sorry Jerome... just... leave me alone for a few minutes." The General muttered sitting in a corner away from the front of the cell.

He laid his head in his arms and curled into a ball, falling asleep.
