A chest flipped open, the mustached fellow slid a few more minecarts inside, just to be safe. He stepped back, admiring his improved villager trading system. As Mumbo was busy being proud of his work, his eyes moved to the sky, seeing two blurs move closer. He realized that those two blurs were actually his friends, Iskall and Grian.
Reality settled in for Mumbo. He had heard about the two teams forming, G Team and Team Star, along with Grian leading the G Team, with Iskall pretty much being second in command. It's finally time, he realized, this is when my mates invite me to join the team!
After some useless rambling about hair on the face, Grian rolled his eyes and got on with the point of meeting up with Mumbo. 'Anyways, I have called together this little meeting,' he looked over at his friends, 'because we need to get Mumbo in what's going on in the server, Iskall'
Mumbo almost wanted to say, I know already, no need! but he stayed silent for Grian to finish.
'He's kinda been off to the side,' 'yeah,' 'for the whole thing,' 'chilling,' 'chilling,' 'just uh- where have you been, dude?' Iskall, after the muttering with Grian, looked up at Mumbo. 'I've been chilling out,' he nodded, 'and I've been just doing my thing, been incredibly neutral.' Mumbo emphasized the incredibly part, not wanting to pretty much beg to join G Team.
More conversation passed of the two assuming that Mumbo knows nothing about the server's events, but he did! He was tuning them out pretty much. '-the server has pretty much split down the middle, and there's a team of 5 on one side, there's a team of 6..? on the other, I think? maybe it's 4 or 5..' Grian shook his head. 'There's now 2 teams, G Team, which me and Iskall are on,' Iskall and Grian looked at eachother, 'and the other team is Team Star.'
Mumbo watched as the two invented what Star stood for.
'So anyway,' Grian cleared his throat, 'we want to get you in, because I've been reading my comments,' he pulled out his phone, 'and eyeing up the reddit, and all sorts, and everyone thinks that you should join the G Team.' A small smile appeared behind Mumbo's mustache.
As Iskall jumped out of his seat, cheering for G Team, Grian continued. 'And we're here to tell you.. not to join the G Team.'
He felt betrayed, him and Grian were close as ever. Why not him? Mumbo ended up tuning them out, only nodding and saying 'yeah, sure.' He got the gist of it, he was going to be a mole. Infiltrate Team Star, and give the G Team their information.
Iskall and Grian said their goodbyes, flying off, Mumbo muttered a '..pants..' under his breath.
Later, he met up with Doc to talk about gunpowder, only to be slid into the conversation about the prank war and the teams. 'You must know there's a war.' he insisted. 'Yeah, yeah. I noticed some bits going on, yeah yeah yeah.'
'I know, buddy, that you're into redstone.' 'Right, yeah.' Mumbo nodded briefly with each answer. Doc had motioned Mumbo to follow him, leading them to a TNT launcher. 'I would fire it now if I hadn't lost the stacks if TNT I had.' a little humor in his voice, causing the redstone master to laugh.
'Look at all that redstone, doesn't it look good?' 'Yeah.' he didn't know why yeah was the only word he could think of. 'You want to be part of a team that has good redstone, right?' A small smile appeared from Mumbo's mustache. Not an excited smile, like the one that appeared when before his emotions were twisted, a dark smile.
'Sounds perfect, do I have to sign something?'
