Author's Note: It's part twoooooo of the prologue to a story that I only just started weeks ago. I've finally got enough parts written that I can submit this new prologue piece. There's only one prologue part left by the way.
Why's the prologue three parts long, you ask? Well, we need to see a certain plot point before I can call the prologue finished.
Enjoy!
:)

(The following day)
Grian's POV:
" Grrrrrrian?"
Mmmmmm........
" Are you home, Grian?"
I wish I wasn't....
" G-man, you weren't at your mansion, and my communicator said that you were here."
Right, I really need to see if I can turn on AFK status while I'm sleeping. My body curled up as my wings wrapped around me; It finally felt nice to have wings. Unfortunately, I'm still not so used to the tail.
A small churr came from me as I snuggled deeper into my nest of blankets. My body was almost entirely enveloped by my blankets, but still, the voice was persistent.
" G-Griannnnnnn?"
A gentle finger poked at the tip of my nose, and I slowly cracked one of my eyes opened and looked at the purple robes ahead of me. I let out a small annoyed squawk while moving away from the wizard.
" Grrrriiiiiiaaaann?" Scar spoke in his usual warm, peppy voice but this time it was more quiet.
" Ssscccar...." I spoke back with a small grumble. Scar laid down in front of my nest, and I could see his bright greenish blue eyes staring at me through the slowly falling blanket. If only it could fall faster.
As much as I do enjoy Scar's company, I just wanted to sleep after trying to keep RT's powers in check last night. It seems like even Mighty with her 'power cancelling' room can't keep a Watcher in check. I still don't get how a lanky guy like him could hold that much power without combusting, but he unleashed it alright.
I looked at back towards Scar as he slowly stuck his hand underneath my blankets. I grabbed at his hand causing him to yelp in alarm.
" What do you want Scar?" I questioned with a yawn while slowly sitting up. Scar fixed his wizard's hat, " Well, we were suppose to work on the creeper farm today, and you said we were meeting up at your mansion. " he told me as I mentally slapped myself.
Right.
I forgot that that was today. Slowly, I took my blanket off and flinched at the bright light filtering through my round window. My wings flapped as I yawned and quickly flattened my hair with my hands.
" Honestly, I was so busy last night that I completely forgot." I rubbed the back of my head and let out another yawn as my wings stretched out.
Scar tilted his head as he sat up, " What were you doing last night?" he questioned with a tilt of his head. Scar's face was beaming with curiosity as he moved closer to me.
With another yawn, I told him about RT and his strange powers. I told him about how the Irishman's magical outburst caused the containment room to shatter around us, and it took me holding him down and hugging him in order to stop the magic from killing him.
The hermit's eyes widened.
" Oh my goodness." Scar whispered as I nodded, " We don't even know if respawn will work properly for him in his condition... I mean, I assume it will..." I mumbled as I stretched my wings out. Scar frowned, " Well, at least he's okay now, right?"
I nodded my head, " Yeah, Mighty and her group put him in a healing room." I told him, " Also, Wilbur and that ram guy are currently there to help look over him too."
Scar tilted his head, " What can they do to help?" he questioned as I crossed my arms, " I have no clue... Neither of them have magic, and one of them's a very cynical sheep hybrid." I shook my head slightly.
The two of us sighed as Scar stood up and fixed his robes, " Well, I don't think you're awake enough to deal with the beasties that are creepers." he told me as I nodded, " Yeah, so uh, " the feathers around my neck ruffled, " What do you want to do?"
We sat in silence as Scar rubbed the bottom of his beardless chin. Fighting the urge to curl back up and fall asleep, I watched Scar as he looked around my bedroom, down the stairs, and finally out the window.
Then, Scar smacked his hands together causing me to jump, " I've got it!" he grinned as he bounced up and held his hands out to me. I raised my eyebrow and took Scar's hands and was quickly pulled up to my feet.
Scar changed from his wizard's hat to his cowboy hat and adjusted it, " We can explore my Misfit Villager village!" he told me with a raise of his arms. I nodded at him, " That works, but I do have a question."
" What?"
" Why did you change to your normal hat if you're going to show me the village?" I questioned with a tilt of my head. Scar shrugged his shoulders, " This is my adventure hat." he explained as I nodded.
" That makes sense, I guess." I mused as I looked towards my clothes shulker box, " Just give me a minute to change into my normal clothes." I told him as he nodded and went downstairs.
After changing into my warm jumper and other clothing, I walked down the stairs and found Scar looking at something with a small smile.
" What're lookin' at Scar?" I questioned as Scar motioned over to a cat sitting a little ways in front of my door. She wasn't close enough to pet, but she was close enough to the point where I could make out a lot of detail.
That was the cat from last night.
How did it get here?
I shook my head, " Let's get going, Scar." I told him as he gave me a confused look, " Don't you wanna go and see the cool cat?" he questioned as I shook my head, " No, if its still there, we can though.... Let's just head out towards your village." my wings flapped as Scar nodded and equipped his elytra.
" Alright, let's go." Scar lit a rocket and quickly took off into the sky. I jumped into the sky and flapped my wings until I was fully airborne. Before I flew after Scar, I gave the bizarre cat one last look and froze with just my wings flapping.
The cat was gone.
I shook my head.
It's probably fine. Cats are mysterious little things, and I'm sure that we'll find the cat again. Well, hopefully, we don't rediscover the cat.
For some reason, I really don't like it.
I shook my head with a sigh. I quickly flapped my wings as I flew after Scar and headed towards his village.
