!This is an au where XLife and HermetCraft are enemies! They do NOT respawn in this au!


When Scott woke up in his house, the last thing he expected to hear was screaming. Shooting up from his bed, he ran and put his armour on. Luckily he'd fallen asleep in his normal clothes.

Scott ran outside with his sword in hand and a bow on his back, he realised it was Lauren who was screaming. "LAUREN! WHAT'S HAPPENING?! WHAT'S WRONG?!" he shouted to his friend, Lauren quickly turned to look at him, "HERMITCRAFT ARE ATTACKING SCOTT!" she yelled back. Scott's eyes widened in both shock and fear, he knew they would attack, but why so soon?

"WHERE IS EVERYONE ELSE?!" he shouted, "THEY ALL WENT TO ATTACK!" she yelled back, 'That's not good..' he thought. Scott ran to Lauren and grabbed her arm, "Come on, we have to help them!" he said as they both started running.


It didn't take long to find where the fight was, the second Scott and Lauren entered the battlefield, an arrow was shot straight towards them. Scott saw the arrow and tackled Lauren to the ground, they barely avoided it.

Scott quickly got to his feet and sprinted towards Grian, both of them swung their swords and clashed together.

Mumbo and Joey were fighting each other, Tango and Zedaph were fighting with Oli and Jack. Lauren and Pat were shooting from further back. 

Grian managed to out speed Scott and slashed his left arm with the sword, he hissed in pain before striking back.


Even over all the yelling and screaming from the fight, Scott heard Shelby scream in fear as Oli got hit in the head with an arrow. Scott looked over and saw Tango coming up behind her, he swung his sword at Grian's feet knocking him over. 

He swiftly pulled out his bow and pulled back an arrow, he aimed at Tango and let the arrow go. It struck Tango's right arm and gave Shelby enough time to attack, he shot another arrow this time at Grian and it hit him in the leg.

Scott quickly ran to help Jack since Oli was now down, he swung his sword and it teared through the skin on Zedaph's back. His back was now painted in a deep crimson colour, Jack seemed to be handling his fight well. 


Scott had decided to drop back a bit, he was still keeping an eye out. Pat turned and looked over to Scott and saw something his friend clearly hadn't, "SCOTT BEHIND YOU!" he yelled. Scott whipped around a second too late, his vision suddenly went white. 

Pat watched as Scott got hit in the head by a brick, the brick had been thrown by Python. He shot a flaming arrow at Python before running to his teammate, who was now lying dazed on the ground.

"Scott! You alright?" he asked, Scott sat up and looked around confused. "Yeah, think so." he replied, his words were slightly slurred. Scott glanced over to Lauren and realised that Mumbo was aiming an arrow at her, he quickly got to his feet and pulled out an enderpearl.

Pat looked confused at the enderpearl, that was until he saw what Scott had seen. He was about to stop Scott from doing something stupid, but by then he'd thrown the pearl. 


Lauren saw the arrow way to late, she put her arms up to try shield herself. A moment passed and she realised that nothing was hitting her, uncovering her eyes, she saw a familiar figure shielding her. She realised that the figure was Scott and went to thank him, her words were lost when he fell to the floor.

"Scott?!" she yelled in surprise, she crawled over to him and looked at the arrow. She felt a pit of dread form in her stomach when she realised what kind of arrow it was.

The arrow Scott was struck with happened to be a poison tipped arrow, luckily it didn't look like the arrow had hit anything important. Lauren heard Scott groan in what she guessed was pain, he looked up at her. His eyes were misty and unfocused, she turned to look at Pat.

"PAT! I NEED SOME HELP OVER HERE!" she yelled as she sat Scott up, she quickly realised that doing that wasn't the best idea when he yelped in pain. His eyes widened as he turned his head to the side, Lauren realised what he was doing before it happened. 

After turning his head, Scott threw up whatever was in his stomach onto the ground. Lauren rubbed circles on his back as this happened. After he'd emptied his stomach contents onto the grass he was thrown into a harsh coughing fit.


Pat ran to where Lauren and Scott were and saw what damage the arrow had done, he also noticed that Scott's body was shaking rather violently. "This is bad," he started, Lauren looked at him, "his body seems to be having a bad reaction to the poison." he added. Lauren looked at Scott, her expression was fully of sympathy.

An arrow shot towards them and was deflected by a sword, both Pat and Lauren knew who's sword it was. 

It didn't surprise them that much to see Scott standing, he'd never been one to show weakness in situations like this. "I'm going to help Shelby and Jack, will you both be alright?" Scott asked, both of them nodded knowing they wouldn't be able to stop Scott.


Jack was starting to struggle to keep up with Zedaph, so he was relieved when a familiar face came and attacked with him. "Cheers mate!" Jack said to Scott, he nodded before shooting an arrow at Mumbo. 

Scott snapped his head around when he heard a scream of pain coming from his left, he watched in horror as Lizzie got a sword stabbed straight through her chest by Etho. "LIZZIE!!" he screamed, ignoring how the action caused his throat to burn. 

He pulled out another enderpearl and threw it behind Etho, as soon as he teleported, he drove his sword straight through his head. "Lizzie? Lizzie?!" he shouted to his unresponsive friend, he knew that she was dead.

He had to force himself not to throw up as he looked down at his dead friend, blood oozed thickly out of the stab wound.


He turned and across the field to get to Mumbo as he shot an arrow into Joey's back. Raising his sword, Scott brought the blade down onto his back. To his surprise, Mumbo quickly turned and kicked him directly in the stomach. The second Mumbo's foot made contact with him, he stumbled backwards only to get stabbed in the back.

In that moment everything went fuzzy, he thought he heard people scream something, maybe his name? He wasn't sure. Before he knew it, his whole world went black.
