[Third Person POV]
Grian was pacing around his house. It has been a few weeks since he got his first powers. Now Grian is not the only person to have powers. More than half of the Hermits have them now including Xanthus. At the good side, Grian's new shop, the G-Train, has been going on for success. But now, Grian was thinking.
'So... I need to keep up with all the info on the server... Should I write it on a book? Yeah, I should write it on a book...' He then took out his journal that he had since he was a kid The journal was a gift from his father for his 7th birthday. The journal had been with him since almost 21 years ago. He then opened the page which was not written yet and started writing on it.
It has been 2 weeks since I got my powers and 3 days since I got my 2nd one. Almost all of the Hermits including Xanthus and Helsknight, has new elemental powers.
Bdubs got Dark and Light. Cub got Earth, Doc also got Earth. Etho got Water but he likes using the Ice part more. False got Air. Gem got Earth. Scar, Earth and Light. I got Air and Water, but I prefer using the Ice side just like Etho does. Hypno got nothing yet. Jevin got Water. Impulse, Fire, and Iskall got Water. Joe got Dark and Light. Keralis and Mumbo got no powers yet. Pearl got Fire and Water. Ren, Fire and Light. Stress got Fire and same for Tango. TFC haven't got any yet and Beef got Earth. Wels got Light and Water, while xB got Earth. Xisuma also got Earth, but he also has Water. Zedaph also has Water for an element. And for the last Hermit, Cleo got Death.
There are 2 other non-Hermits this season. They are "Alter Egos" of 2 other Hermits. EX or Xanthus got Earth and Fire while Hels got Dark and Fire. I don't know why, but I think something is about to happen today. And that's all I can write for now.
Signed, Grian Xelqua Watson
Grian then closed his journal and sighed. He was going to turn 27 in 3 days, but he didn't exactly care about his birthday. He never told anyone about his Birthday, and he didn't mind. Only his family knew about his Birthday for obvious reasons. Grian is also one of the few people to actually know about Xanthus being the younger twin to Xisuma and Hels being the younger twin to Wels.
Heh, family issues. Phil also didn't care as much for his youngest brother. He probably only started caring when Grian was taken by the Watchers. Grian knew that his father was a Watcher too, and he didn't blame his father for being a Watcher. When Grian became Prime Watcher, he renewed the rules.
Rather than the Watchers taking the future Watchers by force, they will let them choose. The training wasn't as harsh as it was before and no such thing as torture will be given to the ones who break the rules, just harder training. Most of the other Watchers in trainings were relieved when Grian changed the rules. Grian also added another rule that apparently any Watcher in training can visit their family for a 3 day limit.
Grian decided to just take a break for now and just explore the world more. Grian knows that a tundra is far up north, and a mesa biome is also near the tundra. For now, he decided to just explore the continent and get to know it more.
He felt a tugging feeling in his stomach but decided to just shake it away. He then went out of his house and flew up using his Vulture wings. Apparently, all Hermits that have wings can't use elytras for some reason, which was very weird. There are a few people who has wings such as Grian himself, Pearl, Cub, and Scar. Grian has Bearded Vulture Wings while Pearl has Butterfly wings. Cub and Scar has vex wings, which were unnatural. Players can only get vex wings when they are cursed.
Grian glided with the wind and went east to the Easters Region. He flew on top of the Evil Mansion and X's base. He also flew on top of the 'Big Eyes Peoples' base. He then flew west to the Central and Western Region. He glided on top of all the Hermits bases in both regions and went South to the Southern Region. He flew on top of the flower fields or forests of Joe and Cleo and glided on top of Zedaph's and the rest of the Hermits base.
His communicator then ringed. He stopped mid-air and looked at it.
-----= Hermitcraft =-----
<Dream joined the game>
<Xisuma> What the!?
'What!?' Grian thought confused and shocked. He knew who Dream was as he was the Admin of the Dream SMP, but he didn't know how or why he was here. Let's rewind back time and go to another person's POV, shall we?
[Ph1LzA's POV]
I'll be honest, I never wished for Grian to be taken by them. But those fucking Watchers just had to do it, did they? They also took Techno. Techno did come back after 6 years but Grian didn't. Grian was supposed to go back around the same time Techno was taken but... He didn't. Now it has been almost 15 years since he was taken by them.
Since I joined this SMP it just went worse for my kids. Wilbur died by my hands, granted he did got resurrected but he wasn't the same. Tommy was exiled and did die at one time but got resurrected by Dream, and now, Techno is in prison because Quackity and Sam tricked him.
Now I'm alone. If only Grian wasn't taken by the Watchers, he would be with me now. When Techno got home after those 6 consecutive years of Watcher training, I asked him where Grian was without letting Wilbur or Tommy know. Techno just said that he didn't know but for sure he was alive. I was relieved when he said that but now the only thing is that he was still missing.
Since Grian got taken, I cared for Tommy more. Because Grian or my wife wasn't there, I took care of him with the help of Techno and Wilbur.
I don't know why but something tells me that something is going to happen today. It feels weird. I never liked this feeling. It was the same feeling I got the same day when Grian got taken. What is going to happen? Is Techno going to die? Ah, I really don't know...
I then sat down on a chair nearby and thought of something. I thought about the good memories I had with my family. Where my wife was still alive, where Grian or Techno was never taken, where everything was just... Perfect.
=--->>|<<---=
It was a sunny day. My wife had just gave birth to my son and I was feeling proud and happy. I was wondering on what I would name him. I looked over the room and saw that my little boy was still sleeping. I walked near my wife and sat on a chair near her.
"So, what are we going to name him?" I asked her.
"I've been thinking of Grian for a while. The name itself means Sun and he was born at a sunny day." She requested.
"Should he have a middle name?" I asked her.
"Sure." She replied.
"How about... Xelqua?" I requested.
"That sounds good. Grian Xelqua Watson."
"Yeah." I spoke.
>>>>><<<<<
It's now almost 6 years since my oldest child's birth and today, we are going to get another child. Hopefully a son. After a few hours, our youngest child had finally seen the light of the world. He was a handsome child–Grian was still more handsome though–and a healthy one. His eyes were oddly red, contrast to mines and my wife's eyes.
"What will you name him?" My wife asked. Grian also seemed eager to know.
"Me?" I asked her unsure.
"Mhm." She said while nodding.
"How about... Dave?" I requested.
"Sounds great. Dave Watson. How about a middle name?" My wife asked.
"Probably... Hades." I said to her.
"Dave Hades Watson. Sounds good." She said while smiling. Grian was also smiling brightly while seeing his younger brother.
>>>>><<<<<
It is almost 7 years since Grian's birth and about a year since Dave's birth. This day, our 3rd son was born. I was filled with joy. The same one I felt when Grian and Dave was born. And for his name, we both decided to let Grian name him.
"I can name him?" Grian asked looking confused and happy.
"Yes son, you can." I answered him.
"Cool! How about... Uh... Will?" He proposed.
"That sounds like a good name for me." I spoke. "How about you dear?" I asked her.
"You get my approval for that name Grian." She said.
"Yes! Can I hold uh... Will?" Grian asked us both. I then looked at my wife giving the approval look.
"Sure Grian." She answered.
"Thank you!" He spoke. My wife then gave him Will and told him to be careful while holding him. "He looks so cute!" He continued looking joyful.
"He does doesn't he?" I asked him. Grian then nodded with his eyes full of happiness.
>>>>><<<<<
It had been 10 years since Grian's birth, 5 years since Techno's birth and 4 years since Wilbur's birth. The 2 youngest came out with weird names and wanted us to call them that and we said yeah. That happened approximately a year ago though.
My youngest son was now born, and we named him Thomas Mycroft Watson. Grian said that he should be named Tom and Techno requested the name Theseus. Techno seems to be a bit obsessed with Greek Mythology. Wilbur said Thomas and that name had a good ring to it, so we named him that. Techno did argue a bit, but I said that he was allowed to call him Theseus and not Thomas, he agreed which did stop all the yelling happening in the house.
>>>>><<<<<
Today I was feeling weird. I felt a weird gut feeling that something was about to happen, but I just ignored it. I decided to go for a morning walk around the perimeter of the house just in case. After a few minutes of walking, I found the front door open. I rushed inside in case anything happened and there I saw Techno, Wilbur, and Tommy crying. No sign of Grian though.
"Where's Grian?" I asked them. Wilbur then cried even more, and I was getting even more worried at the moment. "What happened to him!?" I asked while panicking.
"G- Grian got taken by a creepy guy..." Techno managed to spoke out.
"Who!?" I asked him while having a thought that I won't see him again.
"A guy with a weird m- Mask." As Techno said that my heart sank. "A- And a purple cloak." No. "W-With a purple halo..." He finished off while sobbing.
This can't be... No! Why! I thought they would never find me! How! How did they find me! How dare they just take my son! Wait... That weird gut feeling... No... This is all my fault... If only I didn't leave... This is my fault. A tear dropped out of my eyes as I realised that I had made a very bad mistake.
>>>>><<<<<
It has been 6 years since Grian was taken by those fucking Watchers. He should be home now. What if he died though? What if he forgets about us? What if the Watchers took control of h- No Phil. Be positive. Nothing bad can happen today...
Right?
I was wrong. Techno was taken by those damn Watchers again. It had just been a FEW HOURS since I thought that. Why is it that everything that I hoped for never comes true these days...
>>>>><<<<<
12 years since Grian or Xelqua was taken. Why Xelqua? Watchers call other Watchers with their middle names. And it has been 6 years since Techno was taken. I wonder what the Watchers are going to call him. Huh, why should I care... Grian and Techno isn't even going to come back at this poi-
The doorbell rang. I wonder who it is. As I opened the door, I saw something that I didn't expect.
"T- Techno?" I stuttered.
"Yeah. It's me, father." After he said that, I hugged him immediately.
"Thank goodness you're safe... Did the Watchers do anything bad to you?" I let go of the hug then asked him.
"No, not really. How did you know about them?" He asked.
"I was one of them Techno." I answered.
"Hm, as expected. Grian did told me about that." He spoke and revealed that Grian was alive.
"W- Wait... Grian's alive?" I asked him.
"Yeah. Though I don't know where he lives now. He also said that he was an Admin and a Listener now." He answered.
Well at least I know that he's fine.
[TommyInnit's POV]
Why did this need to happen? Why does Will need to die? He did get resurrected but he's different now. Why did I get exiled? To make stuff worse, the one who exiled me is my best friend. Why did Grian need to be gone? Those questions circled around my mind.
Grian. My eldest brother. And the brother that cared for me the most until his disappearance on 17 August 2006. Phil gave me a present which was supposedly from Grian when I turned 7. A green scarf. Phil said that Grian wanted to give this to him when I was 7. Phil also said that Grian has the same green scarf as mine. The scarf was one of the only things I have left from him.
I was just reminiscing some memories about him until I heard a loud boom. I built up and looked around to see if anything weird is found. Instead, I found nothing. Just nothing. As I broke the blocks under me and decided to just think that I was imagining things, a portal opened near me and before I could do anything, it sucked me in, and I blacked out.
[Technoblade's POV]
As I got sucked in by the portal, I ended up at another world. I then stood up and saw that Dream was near me wide awake, and I saw almost all of the other Dream SMP members there. Some unconscious, while some got up with confused faces. Our communicator beeped and what I saw shocked me. The name of the group wasn't 'Dream SMP' instead, it was 'Hermitcraft'.
-----= Hermitcraft =-----
<Technoblade joined the game>
<WilburSoot joined the game>
<TommyInnit joined the game>
<Welsknight> What? X who are these people?
<Tubbo_ joined the game>
<Ranboo joined the game>
<Xisuma> I don't know. Everyone, meet me at spawn!
<Renthedog> Ok man!
<Ph1LzA joined the game>
<Docm77> I'll be there alright, with weapons in case they are dangerous.
I turned off my communicator and saw a lot of people going near us with weapons ready. They also wore... Elytras? Who knows. There were about... 16 players? There are probably going to kill us. And I'm sure that there aren't only 16 players here.
And I was right. More players came and more DSMP members who were unconscious woke up, including Tommy and Wilbur. As those who were unconscious woke up, they all had the same confused looks on their faces. Heh, they should look at their own faces now. Though... Why are we here?
"Who are you and why are you here?" A man with the green suit asked with a pretty threatening tone. Considering that we had no armour or weapons with us.
"Well, we are the members of Dream SMP, and we are here in peace. We don't have anything other than our clothes and stuff accompanied with it with the exception for a few things." Dream answered the persons question.
"How did you get here?" Another man asked. The man was similar to the man that spoke before, just the man wore a red armour instead of green.
"Well, we heard a loud boom." Tommy said.
"Then a portal opened." Tubbo continued.
"And we got sucked in." Callahan ended.
"And that's how we got here I assume." Dream spoke.
"Hm... Seems like that. I'll trust you for now. Don't do anything suspicious or we won't hesitate to attack you." The green suited man spoke.
"Who are you?" Wilbur asked.
"I'm the Admin of Hermitcraft. My name is Xisuma Void, and you can call me Xisuma." Xisuma introduced himself to us.
We then introduced ourselves to the people that lived here. And it seems that they call themselves 'Hermits'.
"Are there just the 23 of you?" Niki asked.
"No... Combined there should be 28... Come to think about it, where are those Boatem peoples?" The guy named TFC answered our question and asked a question to the other Hermits.
"Don't know. Weird. Why are they la-" Before the guy named Zedaph finished, 3 people arrived and one of them spoke,
"Sorry were late! Mumbo got some difficulties. He's currently behind us still flying along with G-Man." A guy with a scar on his face said. "Also, who are these people?" He continued.
"We'll explain later Scar. So, these people are GoodTimesWithScar or just call him Scar, PearlescentMoon and just call her Pearl, and ImpulseSV. You just need to call him Impulse." Xisuma introduced them while they said their greetings. They seem to be friendly. Well, all of them does. Probably except the 3 guys named Doc, Hels, and Xanthus. Eh, why should I care.
We all then heard the sounds of rockets coming nearby accompanied with the sounds of flapping. We then saw 2 people that came nearing us. They then landed and one of the people is one that I recognized and know.
Grian Xelqua Watson.
"Mumbo you spoon! If only you checked your elytra first this wouldn't happen!" Grian scolded the Mumbo guy. I looked over at Phil, Will, and Tommy. They all looked shocked looking at Grian. Especially Tommy. Probably because he had no memories on how Grian looked like.
"Grian?" Phil said. The Hermits and other DSMP members looked at him with the exceptions of Me, Will, and Tommy.
Grian looked at the source of the sound and his eyes widened. He then said, "Father?" Which shocked a lot of the players surrounding us and the DSMP members here. Phil then hugged Grian and Grian hugged him back.
"You guys know each other?" Xisuma asked.
"Well... Obviously. He IS my father." He pressed the 'is' on his sentence.
"Oh... We'll let you be together, and I guess for the rest of you, we'll give you guys a tour. For the people that are left, Grian is going to give you the tour." Xisuma said and motioned the other DSMP members to follow him and the rest of the Hermits.
After a couple minutes, all the people then left us all alone. Just the 5 of us.
"You both are so grown up!" Grian said to Wilbur and Tommy.
"So... You're Grian?" Tommy asked him.
"The one and only! I see that you are wearing the bandanna I gave you hm?" Grian answered his question.
"Uhh... Yeah! Phil gave it to me!" Tommy said.
"You too Wilbur! You're taller now!" Grian said looking at Wilbur.
"Well, I'm still shorter than you a bit." Wilbur answered.
"Yeah but just a bit. Long-time not seeing you Techno! Last time I saw you, you were still 19!" He greeted me.
"Yeah. It's been a long time." I said to him.
"Wait. Techno you know where he is all along!?" Tommy asked with a loud voice.
"No. I only know that he is alive because I met him on person 3 years ago." I answered him.
"Well, does Phil know about this?" Tommy asked me again.
"Yeah actually. When Techno returned after 6 years of disappearance, he told me that Grian was still alive." Phil answered the question.
"Huh. Wait. So only me and Wilbur didn't know?" Tommy asked.
"Well, yeah I guess..." Phil said sheepishly.
"Long-time not seeing you too dad." Grian said.
"So, how are you now?" Phil asked.
"Fine I guess. Just... Some weird stuff happened a month prior." Grian answered.
"What happened to you?" Wilbur spoke after being silent the whole time when Tommy bombarded us with questions.
"15 years ago I got kidnapped by a Weird gang and they made me one of them. About 6 and a half years of being under their control, I finally escaped them. They are now officially gone 3 years ago." Grian answered half the truth. Phil seem to know that he was lying a bit but understood and left him be.
"Hm. Do you know why Techno was also gone for about 6 years?" Wilbur asked him again.
"Yeah. Techno got taken by them as well. He can go home with a bit of my help really. I couldn't go home because I very much didn't know what happened to you guys." Grian answered his question again.
"Tell us about those weird stuff you mentioned?" Tommy asked.
"Well... It's going to be a bit of a long story so..."
[Third Person POV]
After a few minutes of explaining, Grian finally finished it and he was then bombarded with questions by Tommy, again.
"So, were gonna have powers?"
"Yes."
"You have powers? Air and Water?"
"Yes. But I lean on the Ice part of my Water element."
"We can get armour and weapons stronger than Netherite?"
"Yes."
"The End dimension is accessible here?"
"Yes. End stuff exists."
"Can I have an elytra?"
"The mod makes it so no winged person can fly with an elytra."
"Aww. I was hoping to fly with it. No matter. Now can you give us a tour?"
"Sure."
Grian then gave the SBI a tour around the place. He gave them a tour around the continent and gave information on paths. The 4 seemed amazed by the scale of building in this server and complimented them. After about 40 minutes of walking, they finally got to the Boatem Village in the Northern Region and saw that everybody was there.
'Everything can't go worse form now on, right?' Grian thought.
He was so wrong.
