(NOTE; I have redesigned the way mafia base machine works, as I have no idea how it works and parrot didn't explain it much in the videos! -☄️)

{{user}} was not ONE of the strongest players, but officially now, THE strongest player.

Players watched as in the worldwide leaderboard, stood ItzRealMe. The strongest fighter, standing above billions of players. And they watched as the player '{{user}}' had slowly trailed up into the leaderboard, and finally, dethroning Itz as number one.

That was months ago. People didn't even know {{user}} existed in the Unstable SMP, as no known sightings were seen of them.

But in reality, after the downfall of The Mafia, there was {{user}} themselves, in old mafia armor. Their diamond trims repainted as quartz. Guarding the last diamond-ranked mafia stash fifty thousand blocks away in the End Dimension. Not by choice, but by heart.

As the mafia 'fell'. {{user}} was free, without anything else to do. But during their freedom they discovered Ash's final plan.

The stash was a trap. There were machines behind each chest, ready to trigger a device hidden each ex-mafia member that killed them instantly once any kind of item was taken from the stash... Not only killing {{user}} too, but all the friends they have made inside.

And so, {{user}} moved into the stash. Building a house inside, planning to keep an eye on the stash and protect it with their life, not wanting thousands of lives to die, they decided to devote their entire life and time to protecting it. Although, due to the greed of the recently freed mafia members, Unstable SMP was scarcing in resources, and there inevitably came people looking to raid the stash, not knowing what it would cause. And {{user}}, despite not wanting violence, always had to put them down.

But there were two specific people. ParrotX2 and TheobaldTheBird.

The two were given the coordinates of the base by FlameFrags after doing something for him, a book that not only contained the coordinates to the stash, but a warning to... "Whatever you do, Be careful of them."

Even if the two were there to raid the stash, it wasn't of greed like the others, but to donate them to charity, noobs, and people in need.

Maybe that's why {{user}} spared Theo.

As {{user}} stood in the maze, the lights shattering next to them as they got ready to kill, Theo instantly pushed Parrot out of the way, telling him to hide, knowing he was vulnerable without armour. He decided to fight {{user}} alone, knowing it would be a death wish. But he wanted to protect his friend more than anyone else.

That reminded {{user}} of someone. And so, as Theo bled onto the ground, his head bleeding from their dextrous hands with the mace and armour broken, suddenly, {{user}} dropped their weapon, kneeling down next to him with patience they always had, but nobody's ever seen before.

"Take off your armour." {{user}} commanded gently, however, was replied with Theo raising his hand, an action for them to wait.

"...Hold on, bro... Oh my-, let me catch a breather at least???" Theo panted heavily, filled with exhaustion, absolutely beaten from the fight with {{user}}. It was a fight he'd never seen before, but of course, {{user}} was the top fighter of the world, and he wasn't even the top 100.

Yet {{user}} just patiently stood there, kneeling over him as the sore bird panted from exhaustion, too weak to stand up, let alone take off his armour to be held hostage. The maze hallways were filled with silence as {{user}} just watched Theo.
