I chose his newer design (just so I could add extra arms ;3/j) so from the Skulk infection- I kind of got the vibe of 'your actions aren't your own' kind of thing- Anyways! i hope you like it! I used Ibispaint for the shaded version! 'small' noncanon story: (its not that small! just a warning!) Stinger laid down against the Skulk grass, its been a few day's since Stinger was trapped in the Skulk caverns, he had to eat Skulk infected Mushrooms to satiate his hunger, after a few days of eating them, skulk grew out of his left side, he didn't see any bad consequences so far, so he pushed the bad thoughts aside, He opened his eyes as he flipped onto his back, he gazed up at the ceiling, and he spotted some Infected Dripstone "Huh- Dripstone usually means some source of water is nearby-" he muttered to himself, "Hup!" he said as he heaved himself up off the Skulk grass, he padded towards the small lines of Dripstone leading into a crack in the wall "This wasn't here a few days ago.." he said to himself as he peaked through it. To his amazement a giant abandoned City was on the other side of the crack "Wow!" He exclaimed quietly it was amazing! a city? this deep! He pulled out his Diamond pickaxe and started digging through the crack, a few hours later, the Crack was big enough for him to walk through. He padded through it and gazed around in amazement, and then he accidentally triggered something and it screeched "AA!" Stinger called out as the piercing noise echoed, he covered his ears as he waited for it to stop, he Squeezed his eyes shut, the horrible sound stopped shortly after, He uncovered his ears and opened his eyes. Suddenly the ground rumbled from underneath. He jumped back nervously as something started to climb out. It was a Warden?! i thought those things were myths! he thought nervously as it Scanned his body, The Warden gave Stinger a small nod before a piercing light came from its chest, Stinger fell back into the skulk grass, he covered his face with his upper paws as he saw the Skulk on himself glow just like the skulk around himself and the Warden, He felt himself Changing, He tried to fight back the Urge to give up, His face and left side stung with pain as the Skulk creeped up onto Stingers face, He started to Feel Lightheaded, and his eyes felt heavy, He collapsed onto the ground, his eyes barely open, he Saw the Warden walk next to him, it let out a small Hissing sound as a Faint heartbeat could be heard coming from the Warden, suddenly Stinger wasn't as scared by the Skulk, in fact- it felt warm and embracing, Stinger let out a long calm sigh before passing out. And that's the end! i hope you liked the story :DD
