"Who are you?! What do you want with us?", Doc snarled. He took out his bow and aimed an arrow at the watcher. Etho popped down an orange shulker box, 'loading his pistol'. He held his firework loaded crossbow at the watcher. Iskall took his bow and aimed it at the watcher as well.

"Wait! Wait, wait." Mumbo held his arms out. "What if that's a hermit, like how Grian was a watcher?" The watcher's mouth opened, as if to say something. He closed it before anyone noticed.

"Grian didn't try to kill us, he tried to protect us. This guy-" Doc shot an arrow at the watcher's foot, which was lifted to walk toward the group. "-he did something to Grian!"

Grian.

"I did nothing to him," Watcher 4 insisted. 

Each hermit took a step or two away from the man. "How can we trust you?", Jevin asked as he pulled out a sword. Ren took out a Strength Potion. Stress and Cleo carried Grian back to the portal watch him and keep him safe. 

"Guys! Can you even put the fact that he sounds like Taurtis into consideration?!", Mumbo yelled at everyone. They all turned to Mumbo, eyes widened. Bumbo Baggins wasn't one to yell, unless Hermit Challenges was involved. He clenched his hands into fists.

Watcher 4 lifted a hand, when Braid and Crown appeared behind him. His hand was pulled down.

"Oh, Hermits. We just wanted Grian back. It's your fault this is happening," Braid teased. Impulse readied an ender pearl.

"Just give us Grian, and you'll all be safe." Crown bargained. Doc pulled the string of his bow. False took a step forward, sword ready.

"We'll fight you until we win."
