Two Lives Owed - GoodTimesWithScar & Grian

"We're trying to claim the desert, but it's way too big-" Grains says, being cut off by the sound of a creeper about to explode, putting us all on guard almost immediately. I whip around with my shield posed in front of me to see Martyn bent over, and hands on knee as he laughs.

"Oh my- noooo..." Scar voices shakily as he collects himself from almost being scared to death, while Cleo laughs with Martyn.

"Oh man, I've been looking for you three. You were the last ones I needed to get."

"That was obscenely loud!" Grian exclaims, clutching his chest, shield still equipped in his other hand. I find myself laughing at his situation, placing my shield back onto my back.

"We were having a secret brainstorming session of world dominance and you just..." Scars sentence runs off into a heavy sigh.

"Well, good people of the world. I've come to spread the word of a new business that's propped up, uh, just due north of here actually." Martyn begins to inform us. Standing a bit off to the side from Scar, I watch as he, Impulse, Cleo, and Martyn converse. Zoning out of Martyns speech slightly I watch Grian pick up a few clusters of plants before spotting a familiar green mob. Walking towards him, I nudge his shoulder with mine, nodding towards the creeper subtly before walking back to the group, picking up a cluster of dandelions on the way. Looking back, I watch as he advances just enough towards it for it to target onto him, then walking backwards, he slowly leads it to the group. I catch the words 'fabulous business' and 'Renchanting', but don't pay close enough attention to understand.

"Oh you..." I hear Cleo start, not knowing if she's talking about Grians plan, or what Martyn's talking about. I hold in a laugh as he walks past Scar, leading the creeper right behind him.

"Oh that one's real." Martyn comments.

"Uh Scar..." Etho starts, but before anyone can truly react, the creeper explodes, leaving a crater in its wake, and no Scar.

"OH MY GOD!" Grian shouts in surprise.

"YES!" Someone shouts.

"Ohhhh, the first!" Bdubs shouts.

"It was my trick but it was real!" Martyn laughs.

"Oh, I didn't think he would actually die!" Grian exclaims, his voice an octave or two higher.

"Ohh no!"

"Oh man!

"Brutal!" Etho speaks.

"Oh Scar!"

"Grian you're in so much trouble!" Cleo voices from beside me.

"Oh my goodness!"

"You let it happen!?"

"Y/N told me too!"

"You two dirty birds!"

"It was just a prank!" I say, standing with my hand over my mouth, still in shock..

"Y/N!"

"Nice 'prank' you two!"

"Oh I feel terrible." Grian whispers.

"It was just a prank she says!" Bdubs said in a playfully mocking tone. "It was just a prank bro."

"Yeah, sorry you're no longer in existence." Tango adds in.

"Y/N, Grian, you knew exactly what you were doing there. It's my fault as well though. I got everybody's tensions down."

"I thought-..."

"I saw Y/N point it out and then Grian go do it and I thought 'He's not really gonna do it, is he?'"

"I was gonna bring it into the group, and I thought it was just angry at me but it went on him...oh nooo."

"Well now we have to make a monument." Bdubs declares.

"Yep." Etho agrees, already bringing out his tools.

"This is the first death."

"Oh no..." Grian turns to face me, "I didn't think that would kill him." I shook my head agreeing. "We're gonna have to do something now, cause I feel terrible." I walk over to his side.

"Yeah." Turning I see Scar turn a corner around one of the houses in the village, rejoining the group.

"Oh no, Scar I'm so sorry..." Grian starts, crouching behind his shield slightly, myself joining.

"Why-why're you both hiding behind his shield?" Scar asks us, coming to stand in front of the two of us.

"I think what we've learned today is that abs don't do anything for you."

"We-we're just goofing off, Y/N saw the creeper and I decided I wanted to bring the creeper in to scare people."

"Admittedly you were probably the worst person to bring one to." I add on.

"Oh my goodness..." Grian and I remain huddled in shame and embarrassment just to the side as they all construct a small cobblestone monument where the creator had previously been.

"I've got an idea." Grian says to me, slinging his shield behind him and onto his back, he grabs my hand and pulls me closer to the group.

"Uh Scar? Could we speak to you for a moment...?"

"Of course, of course." He replies, following us into the village to speak privately.

"Don't get blown up again!" Bdubs calls after us playfully. Once Grian deems us far enough away, he pulls me to stand beside him, both of use facing Scar, still wearing guilty expressions.

"So, because Y/N and I were the reason you lost your first life, accidental or not, I personally am offering up my loyalty to you, until I lose my first life." I look at Grian wide eyed. That's a big and dangerous offer.

"I'll take it!" Scar exclaims, grabbing Grians hand and shaking it, before turning to look at me.

"I- um, well..." Oh what the hell, might as well stick with them. "I also offer up my first life in your service, Scar." He smiles widely.

"Excellent!" He shakes my hand firmly as well before warping an arm around the back of my shoulders and pulling me in a tight side hug, doing the same to Grian. "The- um the...The Trio!" I giggle at his naming.

"We'll have to workshop that." Grian states as Scar releases him then me. Walking back to the group, we see Etho hammering the final nail into a wooden sign at eye level on the monument.

"Oh my no! You didn't!" Coming closer to the sign I see the words, 'Hear Lies Scar', then underneath is in quotation marks, 'It was just a prank!'. Grian starts to laugh as I bury my face into my hands in more embarrassment. I groan, feeling Scars presence behind me as he laughs as well.

"Alright, enough of that now. "Scar says, placing his hands on my shoulders, squeezing slightly, "It's time for us to claim our rightful place in the Desert." Turning me by my shoulders he pushes me in front of him towards a white llama tied to a fence post. With Grian following behind us, Scar moves his hands from my shoulders to my waist, lifting me up, and placing me on top of the llamas white, red and green cotton blanket and saddle. I laugh, readjusting on its back, watching as Grian is picked up as well, and placed behind me on the mammal.

"Um Scar..?" He asks, sliding forward in the saddle to sit directly behind me, his chest to my back. "Shouldn't you be the one on the llama?"

"Nonsense." Scar grabs the llamas lead, and after untying it, pulls us behind him as he walks. Turning slightly in the seat, I wave at Cleo, Etho, Bdubs, Tango, Matryn and Impulse as Scar leads us towards the forest, heading for the large desert.

"This should be an adventure." Grian utters to me, just beside my ear as I turn back around, watching Scar lead us.
