[ORIGINAL PLOT BY Roxy-Rox0 ]

Sun startin to rise.. haven't slept.. should probably do that instead of starting this Epilogue..

Update, didn't actually start, fell asleep, now am writing after previous chapter was published-

When the Being was brought back they were immediately yelled at by the Watcher headmaster. Just as usual. Scolded for one-upping Watchers, scolded for not being good enough.

"You're so pitiful," the Watcher muttered under their breath.

The Being felt a stinging pain against their cheek, the Watcher scoffing before walking off. The Being brought a hand to their cheek and looked down.

  It'll never change. The situations will just repeat, again, and again. The Being will never be good enough, will never be worthy of their attention. They'll never be loved.

  The Being couldn't help the minuscule amount of tears pushing their way to be seen in their eyes. They chuckled darkly to themself and let their mind replay the events that took them to this moment.

  Playing back all the way to the beginning.

  It was just a green little ball of energy, magic entwined with the slightest bit of sentience. Barely able to keep its form in a world.

Then it grew. Its green colour becoming wondrous lime eyes, fluffy green hair. It saw no other like it, so it was alone. Simply watching time go by.

  Then the Watchers found it. The purple creatures decided to take it home. Back to their realm.

The Being was honestly excited, they'd finally get a home, finally have people to talk to and learn from.

But it was nothing like they'd hoped.

✦✦ b e a r s i n t e a c u p s ✦✦

  The Being hid in an office, hugging themself tightly. Their green tipped ears twitching as heavy footsteps past the door. They sighed shakily.

  They didn't mean to! Really. It just.. happened.

  The Being groaned and buried their face in their hands. They hoped the student was alright, but they also hoped they wouldn't be found until the headmasters calmed down.

But of course that didn't happen.

"Open the door." A stern voice growled, a hand banging on the door the Being was leaning against.

The Being flinched and looked up at the door handle. They hesitated, but stood up and slowly opened the door.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-"

"Are you kidding me?!" The highly ranked Watcher snapped, making the Being stop talking. "You could've killed that student! You need to get your magic under control. Have you even been paying attention to your lessons? Or do you only stare at chorus plants?!"

The Being didn't respond, simply stared as the Watcher sighed and probably glared at the Being under their mask.

"Don't show your face to me until my student is healed." The Watcher said, turning and walking away.

"Sorry.." the Being mumbled when the Watcher was already out of earshot.

Tears welled in the Being's eyes, slowly falling and wetting their mask. Didn't they understand? The Being hadn't meant for anyone to get hurt, they were just excited.

The Being walked off, avoiding any other Watcher as they aggressively wiped away the flowing tears. They'd surely be frowned upon if they got caught crying like that.

They entered their small room and closed the door, simply standing there.

The Being removed their black mask and threw it on their bed. They'd have to work harder. Have to prove that the Watchers' generosity wasn't going to waste.

They'd do whatever it takes.

✦✦ c h o r u s  f r u i t ✦✦

The Being grumbled to themself, glaring at the floor as they were escorted back to their room. The door locked behind them.

"Ugh!" The Being kicked at a pot in their room, it was small and was used to practice spells.

The little object skittered across the floor as the Being watched. All they had done was watch another student's lesson. How was that bad?!

Alright, maybe it was because the Being had just snuck back into the facility after they had ran away, for the third time. They always come back though! And the Being's missions have a purpose!

The Being only ran away so that they could do something for the Watchers. They never let them leave the main island. Never let them do anything but "learn".

It was frustrating. The Watchers treated them horribly, keeping them locked up and keeping their lessons small. Always yelling.

The Being glanced at their window, amusedly walking to it. They fiddled with the opening mechanism and opened the window, the Watchers never locked it. Despite all the times the Being has snuck out through there.

The Being carefully carried themself out the window, clinging to the grooves in the walls so that they could safely get down.

They'd been practicing more with their natural magic; possession. Sure, the Being has only tested it on whatever animals they could find on the Watchers' Island, but it worked.

So why not tick the Watchers off some more? Do something that's guaranteed to get their attention and hurt their pride.

   The Being smirked to themself as they made the familiar sneaky walk towards where they could safely exit the Watcher Realm and go somewhere else. What was the top place the Being could go to do just that?

   The Being looked back on meetings they listened in on and a name came to mind. Hermitcraft. The Watchers were frustrated with that server for some reason, probably because they have good barriers.

   Good thing those barriers didn't work on the Being.

   The Being did the little magic necessary to activate the portal and dove in, already planning how they'd defeat Hermitcraft and rip the Watcher's smug smiles off.

   When the Being finished transporting and entered a cave, they planned on finding someone who looked strong and possessing them first. It would hopefully work!

   But then a small brunette entered the cave the Being was planning in. And.. well, you know what happens next.

   If only it had all gone to plan.
