Mumbo vs. Poultry Man

This fic wasn't my idea, it was actually an idea from JesseTheDuck, I just wrote it, so a big thank you to them.

Mumbo was tweaking with some redstone when he heard somebody flying around followed by the sound of eggs being cracked. It was Poultry Man. Again.

Mumbo looked up in the direction of the sounds and glared at the 'Superhero'. 'Where did he earn that title?' thought Mumbo.

After a few minutes, Poultry Man left and left behind chickens galore, covering most of his island, his farms, and his storage system. Mumbo looked up to see the direction that Poultry Man was heading in and saw that, as usual, he was heading toward Grian's base.

Suddenly, Mumbo felt jealousy course through him. Poultry Man always went into Grian's base, but never once did Mumbo see anybody other than Grian leave the base. Was Grian... cheating on him? No, he wouldn't do such a thing... right? But they spent so much time in there at the same time.

Mumbo felt the need to go check on Grian and he began to fly towards his base. When he made it inside, he saw Grian coming up from below his base, giggling. "Hey, Grian. What were you doing down there?"

"N-Nothing. I wasn't doing anything down there. Why?"

"Just curious," Mumbo admitted, defeatedly.

"Hey," said Grian in a soft voice, extending a hand to grab onto Mumbo's face and lower it down, "what's wrong?"

"Nothing," said Mumbo in a cold, harsh tone. He grabbed Grian's hand with his own and setting it down. He turned and flew away quickly, not wanting to be near him.

Mumbo landed on his base and went back to working on his redstone, wanting to get his mind off of Grian. He once again heard the sound of elytra and a thud behind him. "Mumbo, what's wrong?"

"Like I said, nothing. Why does it matter?" Asked Mumbo, slightly raising his voice.

"Because we're in a relationship, and we should trust each other."

"Then trust me when I tell you that nothing is wrong."

"Do you hate me?"

"Leave."

"Mumbo, please answer my question."

"Leave!" Mumbo yelled. He heard Grian gasp.

"Fine." Grian said. Mumbo heard rockets pop and elytra take off, signaling that Grian had left.

'Why did I do that? I'm just assuming that he's cheating on me, and even then I doubt it. But who's Poultry Man, and why does he stay in Grian's base?' Mumbo kept asking himself more and more questions until he noticed that the sun was dipping into the horizon and it would soon be dark. Those questions would have to be answered another day.

Mumbo woke up to the sound of chickens hatching nearby. He ran outside to, once again, find Poultry Man there, spawning more and more chickens. 'Now would be the perfect time to strike him.'

Mumbo sped up in the air and aimed his body towards Poultry Man's, tackling him and taking them both down to the ground. "Who are you really?" asked Mumbo, a hand already on the hero's mask and ready to pull it off.

The man in the chicken costume grunted while pushing Mumbo off, trying not to hurt him in the process. He tried to fly away, but Mumbo's hand latched onto his ankle and the sudden force brought him crashing down back to the ground. He attempted to get away again, but failed as Mumbo pinned him down, a look of anger on his face. This scared Grian.

Mumbo quickly pulled the chicken mask off to reveal Grian with a scared look on his face. Mumbo quickly leaped off of the smaller man. "Grian...?"

"Surprise..?"

"Dude, I almost hit you. I tackled you to the ground. I hurt you."

"Why'd you overreact?"

"Because I didn't know that you were Poultry Man!"

"Who's Poultry Man?"

"Grian!"

"Sorry for not telling you, I just wanted a little bit of fun."

"Me almost killing you is fun?"

"No, but-"

"Promise me you won't do stuff like that again, I could've really hurt you. And even if it was accidental, I would regret it. I can't stand the thought of hurting you."

"Okay, I promise."
