Grian oneshots

Found out secrets

Inspired by a story I read which I forgot the name of

None of the Hermits could understand why Grian hated the water. Whenever they went on a trip to the ocean Grian refused to go into the water. It's not like he had any electric parts to him like Doc. But he just said he didn't like swimming but Mumbo felt that there was more behind it. So when the next beach trip came around the hermits decided to have fun with Grian. "You coming into the water with us G?" Mumbo asked, as expected Grian shook his head. "I didn't have to do this but you left me no choice," Mumbo said Grian gave him a confused look "What are you-Woah!" he was lifted off the ground by the other hermits who headed towards the water. Grian realizing what they were going to do "Wait guys don't-" too late they already threw him into the water laughing. 

Then something unexpected happened. Sparks flew of Grian and a robotic voice was heard ERROR ERROR ERROR. Everyone went quiet as Grian calmed down and 'shut off' False went to retrieve him. They laid him on the beach and took a closer look at him some of his hair was gone and they could see something metallic. "Grian is a robot?" Doc mumbled. They decided Doc should take a look at him in area 77 while the others tried to grasp the events that just took place. Doc found a chip, it was damaged probably by the water but Doc managed to repair it partially. He stuck it into the computer and a video played. He revisited many memories such as the head games, the build of, and the hippies breaking into area 77. Doc couldn't help but smile at the memory. He skipped through a few more when he found a memory that showed Grian? He played the memory.

"Test #16"

"Testing 1, 2, 3 NPG can you hear me?" 

A robotic voice answered "Hello father" Grian cringed at the voice. "We're gonna have to work on that voice" Grian took off his glasses Wait glasses? Grian doesn't wear glasses Doc thought but shrugged it off. The thing that Grian was talking to got up and started to walk although it was kind of wonky. Grian let out a happy sound amused that his creation had worked. The thing looked into a piece of glass on the floor and in it, Doc could see another Grian? This one was more robotic, the reflection of something. "Now NPG what is your purpose?" "I am here in case the [FAILED TO LOAD ERROR  304] Doc frowned, it looked like the file crashed. But that didn't matter he had found out something groundbreaking.

The next day Doc gathered all the Hermits together to discuss his findings. After telling them about it Mumbo said, "Grian was a robot?" Doc said, "yes but also no, the Grian we knew was a robot clone created by the actual Grian." "Well, then we have to find the actual Grian... wherever he is." The others nodded in agreement, "Can you repair the robot Grian?" Cub asked. Doc shook his head, "No I found that his motherboard was damaged and I can't find a replacement one because it's special, as if it was from another planet." 

They decided that fixing robot Grian was something to do after they had rescued the actual Grian. The only problem, they had absolutely no idea where he was. They brainstormed a few ideas but none of them seemed to be good. That's when Mumbo suggested they use the infinity portal. Doc shook his head "No that's way too dangerous!" "but what if it's our only chance?" Mumbo asked. Doc took it into consideration but shook his head. "We don't even know how to use it! Who knows we might end up vanishing out of existence!" An argument broke out between the hermits some agreeing with Doc others siding with Mumbo. Eventually, Mumbo's side won. They planned everything out. Half the hermits went into the portal the other half stayed behind.

"I still don't like this" Doc said but reluctantly watched as his friends jumped into the portal. The hermits that jumped in were, Mumbo, Iskall, Ren, False, Stress, and  Etho ( I know that's not half of the hermits but I am not writing like 10+ characters) They landed in a purple castle. They heard footsteps coming so they hid behind a pillar. Mumbo peeked out and saw two guards in purple armor and wings with a mask walk by. Once they were gone the 6 snuck around a corner and entered a large throne room. They gasped at the structure of it unaware of the person sitting on the throne. "Well, well, well who do we have here!" they jumped back in shock. On the throne sat a tall man wearing a long cape armor and a crown decorated with the same symbol the guards had on their masks. He sneered t them " Players? Oh, I hate your kind. So hard to manipulate. There's a reason I stopped trying after my events with Xelqua! Or what was he called? Oh yes, Grian"  Mumbo's eyes widened.

The man continued, "As if it wasn't enough destroying his server and killing his friends. He fled into an underground lab and built a robot clone of himself to 'preserve his knowledge' or something of that kind. When we captured him he still refused to join us. What an idiot, I would have killed him but decided he should be tortured for all the difficulties he caused me. But I'm getting off the track, what I'm telling you is, I'm gonna kill you." The man said, out of nowhere 10 guards burst into the room. But the 6 hermits reacted fast all of them fleeing in different directions. Iskall and Mumbo managed to run out of the throne room unnoticed. They ran through a corridor and ended up in a dungeon. They had to take a break to catch their breath. They heard a familiar voice, "Hello? Who's there?" 

They turned around and saw none other than Grian, he was chained up against a wall. His glasses were almost broken and practically unusable. "Can you two free me?" Mumbo obliged and found keys hanging on the wall which opened the door and unlocked the chains. Grian git up and stretched. "Thanks, mate, it's been years since I could stand up like this! Now tell me who are you guys?" Mumbo and Iskall looked at each other and told Grian the entire story. "So you're saying NPG managed to get into your server but was damaged and you found out he was a robot and then came in search of finding me?" Grian summed it all up. "Exactly," Iskall said. "Alright then I guess I should help you save your friends. 

Grian walked out the door with Mumbo and Iskall trailing behind. They entered the throne room again where they saw that their friends had been captured. The man stood over them laughing maniacally. So far he hadn't noticed the 3 that had now walked into the room. "HEY! BUTTERJI OR WHATEVER YOUR NAME WAS!! COME FIGHT ME" The man turned to the voice furious, "MY NAME IS BUTHINJI!!" he yelled. After that, he realized who he was talking to and his anger turned into fear. "H-how did you get out" he stumbled back. Grian pulled out a sword from nowhere and ran towards him without answering. He stabbed him right through the chest and the man disintegrated into dust. Grian put away his sword and turned back to Mumbo and Iskall. "I'd say we should leave now," he said. That's when they realized they didn't know how to get out and they started panicking. Grian expected this and typed something into the admin board and they found themselves back in Hermitcraft right in front of Doc. 

Doc fell over as he wasn't expecting the sudden reappearance. "where did you come from?" He said regaining his composure. Grian just said, "the watcher castle." Grian then went on to fix NPG. After that, he explained his history to the hermits. 

I hate the ending. It was boring but I just lost motivation.
