Hey guys! Some quick things to note before y'all go into more Mafiasaken: - The Spectre has a sister and niece in this AU - I will use a mix of the old Noli lore and new Noli lore for this AU - [REDACTED SHIP] is cannon - [ANOTHER REDACTED SHIP] is also cannon (but it's from the past lolz muehehehe). - 1x is a somewhat-child in a 4 dimensional body - 1x doesn't really know who/what he is, since he is and isn't Shedletsky (This is...Schrodinger's 1x! /silly) - Shedletsky is still somewhat under the influence of the Necrobloxicon. - New character(s) will be added progressing through the story! - Sign-ups for character's will be available soon! Only 2 slots, though ;3 AAAAAAND THAT'S ALL! ENJOY THE AU! -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- W--WHAT?! N--NO! I DON'T WANNA GO WITH HIM! GUYS! GUYS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?! ... Th...They're not answering me. ... I can't move on my own. I can't speak on my own. I feel these...these felt-textured strings wrap around my neck, head, torso, and limbs. It hurts. It hurts REALLY bad... "...I wish I could help you. I wish I could help you SO bad, 1x..." An unknown voice called out to me. "W h . . . W h o a r e y o u . . . ?" I say...not quite though. I think I was...telepathically speaking with this person? "Y--You can hear me?!" "Y . . . Y e a h . . . ?" The person puts their hands over their mouth and their eyes start watering up. "Oh my God...oh my God...I...I finally got to him...after MONTHS of trying...and all it took was..." They look at me intently. "...Controller Strings. Of course..." They float behind me. "Sooooo...you probably haven't experienced Controller Strings, have you?" "I d o n ' t e v e n k n o w w h a t t h o s e a r e . . ." "As expected. But do not worry! For I, Aura_Seeker, shall educate you on this topic!" What the hell is this person on?! "So, Controller Strings are only able to be used with the Spectre's powers, or someone akin to the Spectre. Such as Mafioso with their powers and me being akin to the Spectre. Niece, by the way, before you ask." I look at them , dead in the eye, BURNING with hatred and fury. "Y O U R T H E N I E C E T O T H E S P E C T R E ? ! W H Y C O U L D N ' T Y O U H A V E H E L P E D US ? !" "I...couldn't." Their smile drops. Then they suddenly smile again, like nothing had happened. "We'll get to that later, 1xsky~!" "DON'T CALL ME THAT!" I accidentally say out loud. Somehow. "Yo...1x...yous ok? Yous...yous look like you've--" "...I'm fine." I say unwillingly. "Ok..." NO! I'M NOT FINE! I DON'T WANNA BE WITH HIM! I DON'T WANT TO BE ANYTHING *LIKE* SHEDLETSKY! JUST. LET. ME. GO! ... I can't say anything. Again. "Okay, let's start headin' to my base, shall we?" "Ki ki, ha ha." (Translation: Sounds okay to me.) ... I can't hear them. All I hear is this loud, annoying STATIC. But I have to stay strong. I'm the Almighty Monarch, after all...! ... Right?
