== Story ==
My username is Equinox and I was a worker for Mojang and a fellow player in Minecraft. My job was to create patches to bugs and glitches that can possibly occur. That's what makes the game flawless most of the time. Well, was flawless and was a worker and user, because I saw "it".
It was around 2016 where I finally get to file a leave for two weeks to have my own break from the intense workload that I have and the continuation of stress of the new projects that were made from my co-workers.
Since I work of Mojang, it is obvious that I have an account for Minecraft. It's great to play Minecraft instead of doing all the coding and such that you could get to see blocks instead of seeing jumbled numbers and letters that is the foundation of the game.
By the time I got home, I did my usual routine. Drop all my things, take a quick bath, and eat dinner. Once I ate my dinner, I opened my PC and boot up Minecraft. It booted up normally and the sweet sound of the Main Menu song played. No more beep and boop from the work that I had done for years.
I called up my friends to be online for the night so we decided to play Multiplayer. One of them, Dr4g0n, made the world. I was played with him and Geiger. It was going so well until I found that the world that is filled with mountains suddenly has flat land that is endless. Here's the excerpt of the chat.
<Equinox> What the???
<Dr4g0n> Yooo, did you do this as a troll dude?
<Equinox> Why would I do this in the first place? Lmao.
<Geiger> I am having a bad feeling about this... should we just leave and make a new one?
<Equinox> Let me linger a bit more, so that I can research on this and fix this when I have time for it.
<Dr4g0n> Make it quick, I don't like it here.
<Geiger> Yeah dude, hurry up, will ya?
I decided to check the flat land that is out of the place from the world that we are. It became so foggy that I couldn't see my friends anymore. I am having the goosebumps but I have to check it out thoroughly so that this can be addressed and fixed immediately. Until I saw someone from the fog. By the time I noticed that there was someone else, both of my friends immediately disconnected. I was wondering why I didn't disconnect. Shouldn't I leave also since I am not the one who hosted the world? I attempted to leave, but it said, "Why don't you stay here with me? We can be the best of friends here forever and ever." That scared me that I decided to Alt+F4, but it didn't work. Now it says, "No. Stay here." I had enough, I opened the chat log. There was nothing that said that someone else joined the world. No name, nothing.
<Equinox> I had enough jokes man. Leave me alone.
<???> Don't you remember me, Equinox?
<Equinox> I don't know you.
<???> I know you very well, Wills, and I will ruin you right now.
I got shocked and immediately locked my room door. How did that person know my name and what does it want with me?
<???> Never underestimate me. If you want to know me, check the workers in Mojang. You'll know. But for now, enjoy the stay.
I felt like my room is changing suddenly to my worse nightmare. It felt like forever. I was strapped to a chair and felt a thousand needles poking me like there was no tomorrow to vaccinate. It drove me insane that when I entered reality again, it felt like it's still my nightmare. I fainted out.
I woke up with my PC shut down and a million notifications from my smart phone from my friends. They were fine, at least. I told them that I am fine and that I would get to play with them soon enough. They were alright with it.
I took a bath and drove to the office again. I checked the logs of the workers there and I noticed that one of them, Alexander Fied, died a few months back due to a car accident on the way back to his home. His body was missing, but only a pair of eyes and a cut-off of the lips were left in the car. I started to remember that he is a quiet guy, but he tends to be cranky most of the time. He gets bullied most of the time, most probably the reason why he is scary now. I understand what he has been through now.
I bolted back to my house and booted up Minecraft, only that it didn't boot up and it said in the log that I no longer exist. I was scared. All I wanted is to fix this up. I tried to open my room door but there was to no avail. I hear voices in my head and I knew that I was getting the effects again. It felt like forever. I went insane. Then, I fainted.
I woke up a few hours then in the hospital with my friends and family. I had lots of bruises and scratches all over me. I had enough of it.
By the time I recovered, I told my boss that I will quit the job. The boss gave me his final farewell and all my co-workers a wave of goodbye. I deleted Minecraft afterwards and now work as a game analyst in a small company.
Until now, the body has not been found, thus I call this incident, The Missing Skin. This will not exactly happen to you, but my experience can happen to you also. Immediately shut down while you have the chance and report to the administrators. Face the consequences if it's too late.
