Missing? W@tcher Grian AU

Gone?

Mumbo woke up that morning without his friend either knocking on the door, or just inviting himself in to wake up Mumbo. "Everyone has their off days." Mumbo told himself, "Now I just get to wake him up!"

He hopped out of bed and went past the closet and straight to the kettle. He started some tea and then went to get changed.

*editors note: I have no idea how to make tea with a kettle...*

He swung open the large closet doors to grab an undershirt before tossing it over his head. Then he reached for his suit jacket and slipped it on too. He buttoned each button with precision the went to pick out a lovely red tie.

He tied it on then made his way to the bathroom. He combed his hair and brushed his teeth. Mumbo took lots of care in his wardrobe, always wanting to look presentable. He checked his watch, 9am.

How long would Grian sleep in? He never sleeps this late, and he always came to wake Mumbo up. Somethings up. Mumbo went to pour himself a cup of tea and then drank it. He cleaned up a bit around his house, then he read some of his book.

At this point it was 9:30. "Ok, there is NO way Grian is still asleep." Mumbo said out loud. He opened his vault and stepped outside. He walked confidently to Grian's base.

He's never woken up before him. He smiled and let himself into his base. As he was reaching for the door knob he cautiously turned around. He had this strange feeling. Almost like he was being— watched.

He shook off that feeling and went into Grian's base anyways. He equipped his newly repaired elytra and glided down to where Grian's bed was. He landed next to it but instead of seeing the sleeping parrot he was expecting, he saw nobody.

The bed was made so neatly there wasn't a wrinkle in sight. His room was completely clean aside from a note on his desk. Mumbo slowly walked over to the desk where the piece of paper was scrawled out.

There was writing on it, but it looked rushed, and sloppy. It was Grian's, for sure, but Grian's hand writing was usually really neat and this looked like he was 5.

Mumbo tilted his head to the side and squinted. All he could make out was "Sunny, I didh't have time tu stup by, I had tu gu un a juurhey tu fihd pesky binds." "That made no sense whatsoever." Mumbo said to himself.

He grabbed the note, tucked it in his pocket, and using a rocket, zipped back out of the room. He was going to find Cub, Cub was great at decoding messages, maybe he could read this note too.

Scar woke up did his usual tasks. Get ready for the day, tend to Scarland, bake cookies. You know your average, everyday Scar stuff. He looked at his watch. 10:00am.

Scar felt his stomach grumble as he turned to look at Grian and Mumbo's base. He hadn't thought about breakfast but maybe they had. He used a rocket and with a zip of his elytra he was right on the bridge between there bases. "Grian??" "Mumbo?" Scar called out.

No response.

He called again.

Still nothing.

This time he called really loud. Still nothing.

     Scar started to walk over to Mumbo's base to look inside but then something stopped him. He froze in his tracks. Scar was looking dead at the faint purple eye staring at him.

He stared for a good 10 seconds before the eye closed and disappeared. Scar brought his hand over his mouth in horror. He was about to take off to Xisuma's but then something caught his eye.
