Twixxel and Verity

Twixell huddled in a corner, his tail wrapped around his legs and his knees bent. Tears streamed from his eyes, thoughts racing through his head like crazy, tangled and forming spasmodically. Simply put, his head was a complete mess. His hands were shaking, his palms tangled in his hair, his gaze fixed on one spot, trying to comprehend what had just happened. So Mob was right... After all, he had warned Twixell to be careful around Verity...

What happened? Twixell went to the mine for resources, planning to search the internet for more information about Verity afterward. But after he finished gathering resources, he heard a friendly, almost affectionate, "Hello, Twixell." Then someone tried to kill him. Mob was sleeping at his base at the time, resting after all that stress with Verity and his best friend. Twixell survived, but barely; there was a small claw mark on his shoulder. Just look at the depths Verity's jealousy and obsession can go... Twixell absolutely must tell Mob what happened, because this is all so uncool. However, Mob's knowledge of Verity's attempt to kill Twixell puts him, and not just him, but Twixell himself, in danger.
