The admin was walking around his server, his thoughts to himself, he had felt a disturbance in the code - or in the 'force' as one might say - briefly for a second, but then it had disappeared and he hadn't been able to track it down, which hadn't happened before, he was even starting to wonder if it just had been something he had imagined.

Xisuma flew over the server and looked around, as he was flying, caught up in his own thoughts so he didn't realize the low durability on his elytra, then his elytra broke and he crashed down into a big jungletree. He sat up in the crown of the tree and brushed the leaves off of his helmet, he couldn't probably see as a big crack had formed in the glass of his helmet, luckily it hadn't broke.

He scouted the view from the top and saw a familiar base, Grians. As he climbed down he thought about the cheery hermit, where was he? The voidwalker hadn't seen him for a long time, maybe he had just taken a break or was very busy with his mansion, the latter being very justifiable as it was very grand and as he could see this was only the start.

The admin got down from the tree and walked over to the mansion. He walked up the stairs to the front door and knocked but with no reply, he frowned as he really needed the some XP to repair his elytra, he decided that the blonde probably wouldn't have a problem with him trading with a villager giving him XP bottles, and if he did X could just pay him some diamonds for his trouble.

The admin went inside and traded in peace with the villagers and got the elytra repaired.

Xisuma turned around to leave but stopped as a symbol caught his eye, it was an ancient symbol he knew he had seen before he just couldn't remember where, it was a broken Netherportal made out of cobblestone, he looked at it before shrugging it off.

"Grian was probably just studying the symbol and had built it for fun, or as a prank," the admin thought to himself and flew off with his newly fixed elytra.

As he was flying, a bell suddenly rung in his head, he remembered where he recognized the symbol from, the Watchers; the ones watching over servers, but also corrupting servers and kidnapping players to make them like the Watchers.

The Watchers were more powerful than any admin, so if they were here then all of his players were in danger, so he just prayed that that wasn't the case. He brushed it off and focused on flying.

It has almost been two weeks since the admin had seen the evolution symbol at Grians base and the picture had been burned into his mind, he hadn't seen the parrot at all which was unusual for the cheery hermit, but Xisuma just dismissed it as the blonde taking a well deserved break.

He landed in the shopping district and froze in place. There was the Watchers symbol everywhere, it was all around the server in cobble and obsidian.
"Maybe this is just a very elaborate prank?" He thinks to himself and walks over to the shops and buys the necessary stuff and flies back to his base.

As he was flying over spawn he saw a stone circle he hadn't seen before so he naturally flew down gracefully to check it out. Xisumas heart stopped as he saw the Watchers symbol once again, this time he knew it wasn't just a hermits harmless prank, this symbol was made out of bedrock. The unobtainable block, this was the Watchers doing.

Panicked, the admin took out his communicator in order to call a server meeting.

[Xisuma: Server meeting at spawn! Right now!]

He texted out and every hermit dropped whatever they were holding in their hands and quickly took off to meet up at spawn. Not even 5 minutes later everyone was standing in a circle around the symbol.

"Uhh X, what is that?" Scar asked and X sighed. "This is what the meeting is about, that is the Watchers symbol, and I'm sure you all have heard about them-" a loud sound interrupting the admin, all eyes widened and looked at Xisuma, who was very confused as to why, too late he realized that they weren't staring at him, their eyes were focused on something behind him.

He turned around and stood face to face with a Watcher - or rather face to stomach as the Watcher was almost double the hight of a player. Before the voidwalker could even raise a finger, the Watcher forced a mask upon the admin and dragged him through the portal.

The players tried to grab their weapons and charge at the Watchers, but most were frozen to the ground in fear and the ones that tried didn't reach the portal in time before it closing, trapping their beloved admin in the Watchers Realm...
