~~Grians POV~~

I waited for a second, I didn't feel dead. I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding. I slowly opened my eyes and I saw it. The man who had the spear had an arrow straight through his chest. He fell to his knees then dropped dead. All the hermits gasped, some backing up even further.

I looked at who shot the arrow, two girls were standing there. The tall one held the bow her blonde hair pulled back into a tight ponytail. The second girl was a bit shorter, she balanced a scythe on her shoulder, Her brown hair covering one of her eyes.

The shorter girl looked too her side a guard was advancing on her, she whipped around and chopped the guards head off with no remorse. The taller girl then faced the guards rather menacingly "You better get out of here before you end up like these two."

The two girls stepped towards us when the guards ran off. We all crowed closer together clearly afraid of the two. Doc stepped through our group looking at the two girls "What good will this do? They will just re-spawn and push us through the portal again." False chuckled a bit, "Permadeath right?" The taller girl nodded "Correct!"

Xisuma looked between False and the two girls, letting down his calm composure "WHAT! That is so horrid." the shorter girl rolled her eyes "Well, we just saved your friend here so you should be thanking us." Xisuma was about to interject when I jumped forward putting out my hand "Thanks, my name is Grian!" The shorter girl took my hand shaking it "Name's Shasta!" The taller girl gave a curt nod "Athena"

Everyone else introduced themselves. Shasta clapped her hands together "well now we are all introduced I have things to take care of." She waved to us then snapped her fingers and disappeared.

We all were confused, Cleo shook her head "So hold on, she can leave this world! We don't have to save you!!!" Athena laughed "Shasta does this all the time, she says it is for 'plot' but really I think she doesn't want to admit she lacks the power to save us."

All of us nodded still kinda confused on what just happened. We heard a loud clumping of armor, Athena's face whitened, I had never seen pure horror like it. She grabbed the closest persons hand which happened to be mine, then she ran dragging me behind her all the hermits following closely behind.

We turned a quick left, running down a skinny alleyway she stopped dead In her tracks Infront of a door. She looked at my hand quickly letting go "Sorry! Adrenaline rush." She grabbed a key out of her pocket and opened the rusty metal door. We heard the sound of armor again, she motioned all of us inside, most of us went inside willingly but of course Doc stayed outside. Athena looked rather nervous, she shoved Doc into the house much to his dismay. Athena closed the door behind her locking it.

Iskall was about to speak when she clamped her hand over his mouth. We waited two minutes, Athena looked out the window, sighing. "That was a close call." Bdubs cleared his throat causing all the attention to him "WHAT THE HECK!"

Athena gave us a soft smile, "That was Herobrine. He must have got word of your arrival, exactly what I feared."

Yes, I added myself into the story. Also the updates to this story will take a bit longer because school is starting for me. (Sadly) Ok, Bai <3
