HermitCamps (Book 1- Done) [A HermitCraft AU]

Hiding in the dark

Scar's POV:

"Scar, you take the new guys and go the camp. We'll stay here to make sure she stays down" Etho ordered.

I nodded and said to Grian:

"Hey, send a message when she's turned to dust."

"I will, Hermes' honor!"

I took Zed's arm and run into the forest and like I thought the others followed.

"Hey, wait what's going on? Where are we going? Why did you hit that thing with a frying pan? My ice cream will fall at this speed!" Zed panicked.

"Long story short, frying pans are powerful, Greek gods are real, you are the child of one and are about to become monster chow."

"Greek what and what?" Beef asked as he caught up with us.

"Greek gods, demigod. And oh, I'm a satyr." I stopped and looked around, and puffed out:

"I think we'll safe here for now. It's gonna get dark soon."

"Alright, Satyr Scar. What is happening?" said a mildly annoyed XbCrafted.

"Sign, I'll hate to agree with that monster but, you really are clueless. Aren't you?" I signed and took down the mist surrounding my legs.

The sheer shock and confusion were funny as the illusion of normal legs fades away.

"Oh my god, you have goat legs." Beef muttered as the color began to leave his face.

"How did y-you, I mean, you just petted your pants and poof! Goat legs!" Zed said as he came closer to try and poke at my hoofs.

I pushed him lightly and said: "Hey! Those are sensitive! And to answer your question, the mist hid my legs, usually, demigods can also see my goat legs, but I felt that some powerful demigods who didn't know about the whole demigod thing were coming and so. Poof! I hid them."

Xb shook his head and muttered: "This has to be a weird dream; it has to be. I thought my mom was just unprepared for a child and left, but you say my mom is a full-on GOD?"

Zed patted Xb's head and jokingly said: "Hey at least we have another thing in common now!"

I lightheartedly laughed and began looking around, Zed noticed my mildly concerned face and asked what was wrong.

"First, it is getting really dark and we need a better place to hide, and second Grian still hasn't sent us a letter. That means that monster is not dust..."

"Maybe that cave is a good hiding place, for now." Beef said as he pointed at a cave not too far away.

"It's perfect, you kids go to that cave and stay there, I am gonna find some firewood," I said as I waved my hand to make some mist cover my goat legs again.

"Woah, I want to do that, can you imagine just waving your hand at an exam, and boom! All the correct answers just appear." Zed said as he stared at my now 'normal' legs.

"Come on Zed, just go to that cave. We don't even have school" as Zed gets pulled away by Xb and into that cave.

Heh, they are such friends and I jumped back into the thick of the woods.

It was gorgeous, the moonlight peeking between some leaves, the crickets singing their songs on the great and wise trees. Bah! I shook my head; I get distracted very easily. And there! A bunch of firewood trees.

"Hey! I'll need some of your wood. So, do you mind?"

The tree didn't respond but I can tell they didn't mind, after all, I am studying after the great Pan.
