"Wha-how-h-h-how did you g-get in?" Cleo had come through to the kitchen, and had just noticed her nephew sitting  calmly on the table like breaking and entering was something he did every day!  Knowing his line of work, it probably is thought scar.

"Picked the lock." Grian spoke calmly, without any hint of pride or urgency. 

"Ho-D-do you know the- It doesn't matter. Why are you here?"

"Meet me at the Border in half an hour."

And with that, he threw an enderpearl out the window, leaving as quietly as he had came.

"You aren't going to, are you?"

"I don't know, Scar. I might have to."

Just then Bee came in, completely unaware of what just happened. "What just happened?"

"Your cousin paid us a little visit." Cleo had a strange edge to her voice- hatred? Or worse, fear? 

"Wait, really? How did he get in? Bdubs must admire our cousins even more now ' thought Scar. 

"None of your business."" Anyway, I might have to go somewhere in half an hour."

"Can we come?" Scars fears were confirmed.

"Absolutely. I don't want you alone in the house. The Border is pretty far, so-"

"Wait, THE BORDER! As In THE EDGE OF THE WORLD?"

"Yes. Anyway, it's pretty far, so we'll need to leave now." 

Bdubs was practically jumping up and down with excitement, running ahead of the group until they came to a white wall, almost flickering in and out of existence, as far and high as the eye could see. 

"The border." said Cleo quietly. "No one has ever been beyond it- we can see that there is land, but don't know how to reach it."

"That's them!" Bee ran up, literally skipping. "We're here!" 

"You brought the kids?" Joel sounded amused, rather than worried. 

"Yeah. W-Well,,. I couldn't leave them alone! After you- she looked directly at Grian- proved how easy it is to get in!"

"G! I told you not to break in!" 

"Well... they were out, so I couldn't get in any other way. Anyway, I wanted to show you this." he said proudly, tapping a grey box. (Remember this!??)"A glitches. It lets you get onto the other side of the border,"





A/n I won't be able to post much over the summer as there's are mainly written on the bus.
