Gerv and I have been friends for quite some time, since I found his week-long-camp Ghostcrawler in less then 5 minutes. We got to know each other and became great friends; alas only a few things were left on our minds: Madexx.
I have been looking for a red or black Madexx since I had hit 84 (which was a couple months ago) Skimming through the desert, camping on and off- just to find the Bronze, and a blue (Magna<3) I was in sigh that the Madexx I desired would never spawn.
One day while doing dailies in TB PvP Isle, I get a whisper from Gerv simply saying "Black Madexx". At this time I had a good 8 mobs or so on me, and I thought it was a joke. But natural reactions kicked in and I bubblebelt (engineering) hearthed and flew there right then while yelling at him to tag and trap. He knew what to do ;p
So I get there, my heart is pounding.. the seconds seemed like hours and with each second Madexx could've been killed.
Finally I fly straight to Gerv, I get down close enough and see a giant black scorpion in my face, NPCscan goes off.. and Im shaking like crazy. Gerv dismisses his pet and Feign Deaths, I distract shot Madexx, and went for tame- not thinking to trap. With my shaking I nearly throw tame off my bars.. but in a few seconds I had myself a beautiful new Scorpion, and I couldn't thank Gerv enough.
(As a thank you I got us an OS drake run for him, he's been wanting a new flyer.. sheesh about time he got off that celestial)
Hardly a week or so later Gerv had been looking into Madexx more; and ironicly he was only interested in one colour: Black. Being down about it and thinking it would never spawn, I always managed to try and cheer him up to look at bright sides; helped him camp now and then and tried finding spawn timers.
Today while doing dailies in Deepholm he set out in search of Jadefang to grab the companion to have a duo. No luck. He hearthed and went back to SW.. debating on rather or not to go to Uldum to check for Madexx, he sat there for a moment more; then flew towards the portals. "Eh I needed to get my dailies done anyways" he said. So he gets those done, and figured he might as well fly around Madexx' big orange blob; thinking nothing would be spawned.
But boy was he wrong.
Through the flying his NPCscan went off and he dropped down to see a giant scorpion there, untouched, and roaming.
In black.
He begins the tame and at this time he has 2 other mobs on him, his HP was dropping and then "DINGGG" Madexx shrunk, and a new scorpid was at his side.
To our dedications to the fact Madexx' keeps clicking and clacking his claws.. we named them accordingly.
Together- things can be done.

WAVE YER HANDS IN THE AIIIRRRR. LIKE YOU JUST DONT CARREEEEE.
