Colder watches as Grave and Steve get knocked down again, they swing their swords wildly but hitting nothing. Then another vessel leaps at him and he whirls his sword hitting nothing but air. He feels something sink into his side, he's dragged down to the ground, he swipes desperately then he hears running feet and something blocks the vessel’s weapon breaking on impact, he sees arrows, and black pants.

“Foxjin?” he asks.

“I’m saving you,” she replies almost calmly, he can’t tell if he’s hallucinating.

His ribs hurt, his head is spinning, he feels blood soaking his side but he manages to stand.

“Foxjin go!” he says, and she lets him through to hit back the vessel's blade, it screams in anger.

Suddenly lightning strikes the ground near them and the vessel turns away.

“What?” Colder gasps and he and Foxjin look around, he takes the opportunity to splash a healing potion on them both. Grave looks at Steve, then they both look at Herobrine who is staring in the direction of the prisons.

“That wasn't me” he says. 

“Who?” Steve asks breathlessly then a trident flies by implanting into one of the vessels shocking it to death.

Steve gasps in shock, 

“It's him,” he says.

“Who?” Grave asks as he stares at the crumpled vessel.

“Remember the time we fought and that drownd with the lightning tridents destroyed everything?” Steve asks.

“Yes... when I said everyone is a monster and I wanted to be the biggest one?” Grave replies.

“Yeah” Steve says and Grave grimaces.

“You’re telling me he’s going to save us?” He asks looking back towards the prison, “or is he also trying to kill us.”

“We’ll find out,” Steve replies.

“Again again!” a voice cheers

“Is that...” DNAx asks wiping the blood from his forehead, “it's Band and Pink!” he yells to the others as he realizes.

Then more lightning strikes, the tridents are a blur in the air, Herobrine falls to the ground as he gains control of the vessels, the power too much for him, the air cracks loudly and then it's calm, only for a moment.
Lightning explodes in the clearing and all the lights go out with a violent flash. Colder lays there ears ringing on the ground, his vision blurring.

“Colder?” He hears Foxjin ask.

“Ow,” he manages.

“Well, that’s a good sign you’re alive,” she murmurs.

He doesn’t know where she is,

“Can you feel anything?” he asks.

“I hear ringing,” she replies then he hears her shift as he tries to figure out where he is, he sits up head spinning seeing the destruction from the explosion around them. The vessels have died, their eyes not glowing anymore, the ground is littered with holes and burnt grass, Foxjin is sitting up next to him.

Steve gets up wincing then gasps,

“Greg!” He yells and runs over evidently limping on one foot, Greg is holding an unconscious girl in his arms.

“Wow who's she?” Steve asks.

“EXPLODEEE” Pink yells loudly jumping around.

“Drowned Guy,” Greg says, Steve sees the familiar chestplate and the tridents.
