Grians POV

I watched Scar and Cub hug Xisuma before entering my new home Realm. Why, they know they are the worst people to enter considering they're Vexlings. Does he care that much to try get me back?? I feel so bad for them, they're going to have to talk to my sister. Oh no.

Scars POV

The watcher slowly glided up to me and Cub. Cub was gripping onto my arm with great force, his other slowly rising just in case he needed to use a spell to get us out of here.

- Now, what are 2 Vexlings doing in a place like this? -

The watcher slyly spoke, smoothly and intimidatingly.

- Friend -

Cub barley managed to spit out, he was terrified.

- A friend, hm? Where did you guys come from? Hermitcraft right... -

I nodded with great confidence, hopeful it could help us get Grian back.

(Grian, always my stupid brother)

- Sorry, can you repeat? I'm not fluent in your language yet. -

I politely asked, it just rolled its eyes before yelling. It hurt my sensitive ears so I hugged Cub back, who was now comforting me. This time it yelled in English.

- Brother get the hell down here now!! -

Brother? I never knew watchers could have family. A watcher that I knew to well had teleported next to its sibling.

- What is it Pearl? -

- Tell me why these 2 have come here, its obvious they're here for you considering they come from Hermitcraft -

The watcher who was now identified as Pearl was questioning him about us. Weirdo.

- We're right here you know -

I said to Pearl, she could ask us herself if she wanted to.

- I know stupid Vexling, id rather ask my stupid brother instead of you 2, he's more reliable -

Grian? More reliable? She's mad. But with those words Grian had moved to block us from out of her view.

- Don't call them Stupid Pearl, have you looked at yourself recently? -

- You little man, I'll tell mum about this. She will be furious -

- Don't you dare pull the favourite card from out of that cloak young lady -

I sat down, crossing my legs, I had never seen a sibling fight before. Me and Cub always got along.

- I'm not the favourite, she loves us equally. Also I've seen you with the on Hermitcraft, you're lucky I haven't already told her -

- You've seen what!! -

- you forget us Watchers can see a lot, and I mean a lot -

- PEARLLLL -

Grian started to whine, covering his face from embarrassment. I just stared up at the tall Watcher, laughing with how weak and stupid he looked In such a powerful form like that. At this point Cub had joined me on the floor, watching the 2 giants argue was so entertaining to us.

After arguing for a while they sat down with us to discuss stuff.

- Yes We're Vexlings, you must be Pearl, I've heard lots -

I utter, Grian covering his face.

- Yes I'm Pearl, Grian's sister. What's it like having a close to normal life? Mum forced me into being a watcher because she was disappointed in Gri -

I looked up with sympathy, Grian must've gone through a lot.

- it's quite nice, we get to make friends and live well... normal lives. -

Cub muttered, still whispering considering he thought they were going to eat us. Grian had zoned out, staring into the empty void which was the Watchers Realm.

- Scar, Cub you have to head. I'm not coming back to Hermitcraft -

Grian spoke harshly. Swiftly standing up and brushing his cloak, opening a portal.

- Come on brother, they are niceee -

- ╎ℸ ̣ 's ⎓𝙹∷ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ╎∷ ꖎ╎⎓ᒷ  -

( it's for their life )

Pearls eyes widened, Cubs did too. I couldn't catch what he said because they speak so quickly but all I know is that Cub is pushing me towards the portal.

- Scar, let's get out of here, it was nice talking, hope to see you soon? -

Cub for once said loudly, still pushing me towards the portal. Why wasn't Grian coming with us? It's obvious he can exit and enter no problem. What was urging him to stay? He loves me... right? Cub with one last push had pushed me through the portal.  We where in my room again, Xisuma looking at us, glad that we were alive.

- So? -

He questioned, I was speechless. Not being able to speak, Cub spoke for me, explaining. I just sat down on the bed looking down at my feet, he had betrayed me, he can enter and exit easily why won't he come home.

- Xisuma can you pass me the note? I just need to reread it -

I muttered, Xisuma passing me the note so I can reread it.

"I decided to join the soulless gang to get Scar back. Best decision I have made, he's worth everything so now I've sacrificed myself to get him back."

He... sacrificed himself for me?

"I should've known better knowing all my friends usually get hurt the second I become really close to them."

This has happened... before? My brain seemed to stop working after reading that line. His has happened before, when? Is that why he never told me why he was a watcher? Didn't want me to know his friends usually get hurt, knowing I'd be a main target for their little plan to control him. Scared. He was scared if I knew I'd run off, knowing I'd get hurt. My mind fogged up, tears staining my cheeks. I didn't know I was crying until Cub hugged me.

- I know this is difficult for you Scar, I'm so proud of how well you're coping -

Xisuma said reassuringly. I had coped semi-well with this whole thing, I had. My crying slowly came to a stop, I had a whole new task ahead of me.

- I'm going to get Grian back, no matter what -
