Xephos's P.O.V
I woke up first yawning, and brushing the sleep out my eyes. The others were still sound asleep and i smiled at their peaceful faces. After I had woken fully, I quietly jumped out of bed to go outside for a little walk to stretch my legs.
As the doors opened I felt the warm light of the sun heat me up as I went down the little set of stairs and walked to the wheat farm. it's wheat was growing lovely, growing full grain wheat and I was drawn to a stump in the middle which looked to be where a scarecrow should be. I was puzzled as Sjin would've probably of had one but shrugged it of and headed back inside as I saw a creeper a few yards away from me. I opened the door to find Sips up and stretching his legs and carefully moving his ankle around.
"Hey" he whispered coming round to me. "seen Sjin?" he asked raising an eyebrow.
"Isn't he still in bed?" I asked doubts forming in my head.
"He's normally up before me and that's even if we've did lost of work...." Sips trailed off as Martyn and Zoey stirred and awoke. they both rubbed there eyes sleepily then noticed us and smiled. me and Sips smiled back motioning for them to come over.
"Sleep well?" Martyn asked yawning.
"Yeah" we all said and quietly chit-chatted until the rest woke up, still doubts forming in my head.
-------------------
Everybody was now awake but Sjin wasn't about. Me and Honeydew were giving out our food to the hungry group. mostly everyone hadn't noticed Sjin's absence bar me and sips, or so I thought. Rythian walked up to me.
"Where's Sjin? shouldn't he been serving breakfast. thank you" he said as I have him some bread and milk which he ripped a piece off bread and of practise, put it in his mouth under his mask without me seeing anything.
"Dunno" I said sitting down next to him as I had gave everyone there meals for now. "maybe he's fixing something on his farm?" I said. Rythian nodded in thought.
"Mmm...... maybe he would've left a note though would he?" Rythian said pointing out the obvious I had failed to notice.
"Yeah he would. you know what lets go check" I said nodding to the stairs. he raised an eyebrow but nodded and stood up with me as we both went up stairs.
"Where you going you two?" Toby asked making everyone stare at us, I swallowed nervously before answering.
"Where going to check on Sjin be 2 secs" I said and everyone nodded and went back to their conversations which were Honeydew, Lalna and Sips in one group and Zoey, Martyn, Toby and Teep the other group.
When we reached the top we saw a room with chests obviously containing his belongings and then another which was his bedroom with the door closed. Rythian, before I could knocked on the door quietly while saying.
"Sjin you in there?" he asked but got no reply, I furrowed my eyebrows, was he sick or something?
"Sjin?" I half shouted. but again got no reply. I opened the door and saw his bed empty of a body but had something I almost fell into Rythian in shock.
Blood, red human blood.
I quickly walked over, Rythian following suite and we examined the blood.
"It fresh, look its still dry" Rythian said pressing gently to reveal blood running on his fingertips. I looked around to see a few drops further down the room and leading towards the window, Rythian noticed too and we both saw the hand shaped blood mark on the window frame. we both looked at each other and I saw panic in his eyes for the briefest of seconds but he reached out above me and I turned to see what he was looking at.
There was a note pined to the walls with nail marks nested to it but I ripped the note off the wall and showed it to Rythian as we both read it.
After we both read it we looked at each other shocked but both ran back down the stairs and caught everyone's attention.
"Sjins in danger!" Rythian said and mostly everyone's faces turned shocked.
"What?" Sips said worriedly.
"We found a note in his room with bits of blood..." I started before Honeydew interrupted.
"Bits of blood" he repeated and I nodded.
"What does the note say?" Lalna asked crossing his arms.
I looked at Rythian and he nodded, I cleared my throat and started.
"Dear the infamous Yogscast
