It was a beautiful day on the Hermitcraft server.
Everything was completely fine.
That is, on the outside.
On the inside, one Hermit was getting eaten up by grief.
He stared in the mirror.
Who even was he?
He remembered all their faces.
Netty, Tom, Taurtis.
And Sam.
He remembered that day.
The day he was forced to become someone he was not.
To leave his old self in the dust.
To become another.
To be Taurtis.
They had figured out, of course.
But he was never the same.
He wasn't who he used to be anymore.
He still remembered the days when he would try to teach Taurtis redstone.
He remembered the days when he would tilt his head at his builds that never turned out right.
He remembered laughing at Taurtis's silly pranks.
Those days were gone.
He stared at the mask on the floor.
Evo had been fun.
But he was no longer there.
He remembered all the fun he had.
Then he had been taken by Sam.
Forced into obeying.
Losing his control over his own body.
Of course, Watcher Y had managed to free him.
They jumped into Watcher Y's home server, which they were currently in.
Of course, only him and Mumbo, who was the one forced to become Watcher Y, knew about all this.
However, they could both hear Sam's voice in their heads at random occasions.
They knew that they had a limited time in control.
He felt the familiar feeling of being dragged into his mind.
"You know your time is limited, don't you?" Sam asked, a cruel grin on his face.
"Leave me alone!" The hermit cried.
"I will see you soon, Gree-on."
Grian snapped back to reality.
This was bad.
Like, really bad.
If Sam took control again, who knew what could happen?
He ran over to Mumbo's base.
"Mumbo!" He yelled.
This was urgent.
"What is it, Grian?" Mumbo asked, looking up from his redstone project.
"Sam's back." He replied, panting.
Mumbo's expression quickly changed from worried to alarmed.
"We need to tell the others," Mumbo said.
"But-" Grian started in protest.
"Grian, Sam could come for us any second! If we tell them, they'll be more prepared if, and when, Sam attacks."
"Alright..."
Silence filled the room for what seemed like forever even though it was only a second.
Grian: Everyone, come meet at Mumbo's base. We have something to tell you.
"They should be here soon."
Miles away, their message was received by Iskall85.
They didn't know what they needed to tell them, but they knew that Grian never spoke with that kind of urgency if it was something small.
They put on their elytra and flew as fast as they could towards Mumbo's base.
Flying over, they wondered why this kind of urgency was needed.
Once they saw Mumbo's base, they landed as quickly as possible.
It looked like they were the first one here.
{Time skip to when everyone is there because the author is lazy.}
"So, you may be wondering why we called you here," Grian said, looking a bit nervous.
Everyone, including Iskall, nodded their heads.
"Well, you see, I was once in a high school where one of my friends got murdered by another friend and I was forced to act like the friend who was murdered but it didn't work and the friend who murdered him got admin-like powers and threw me in a portal that lead to an empty world. I accidentally teleported a bunch of people there and started Evo, a server where we would hop from update by update using portals that the watchers built. However, the main watcher was actually the friend who was a murderer that basically took over another person's body and forced them to become a watcher. That person was actually Mumbo, but he can explain his side of the story. Anyway, the main watcher kidnapped me and hypnotized me. However, Mumbo and I broke free from the spell after a year. We hopped into Hermitcraft, because Evo was long gone at this point, and Mumbo introduced, me to all of you. But now, that person is trying to take control again and we, well mainly Mumbo, wanted to warn you."
What?
That was a lot for Iskall to take in.
Their two best friends were part of a secret evil organization that only had one legitimate member?
And Grian's best friend was murdered by the one legitimate member?
And Mumbo was part of this group while still in Hermitcraft?
This was weird.
"I suppose it's my turn now," Mumbo said.
"I was in Hermitcraft season 4 when a strange figure approached me. He told me his name was Sam and he needed some help. I, being the absolute spoon that I was, decided to help. He got into my mind and took control of my body. He was in control for most of the major events in season 5. Sam kidnapped Grian, I got free, you already heard all that."
Well, that wasn't as earth-shattering.
Still, they hoped they were alright.
I'm proud of myself.
TBH, the word count is only that big because Grian's explanation was like, 100 words long.
Do you want me to continue this?
Anywho, Goodbye!

FanfictionA book for all my MYCT stuff. Will mostly be Hermitcraft at the start but will probably change later. No smut. Anything else is fine, except for romantic reader inserts. I don't really know what I'm doing but expect the chapters to be horrible.
