Helsworld: Book 2- From Nether to End [On Hiatus]

Chapter 3- Interrupting "Angels"

               (Grian)

I flew over to Spirits. She didn't need sleep so there was a 90% chance she was awake. I landed and the door opened almost immediately. Spirit was looking down like she had done something wrong that she didn't want to say. 

"I am dreading this conversation," She said as she motioned for me to come in.

"Ok?" I asked, as I stepped into the house and followed her to a little table in what looked to be the kitchen. 

"What do you want to know Grian" she sighed as she put her hands together on the table and looked at me. 

"I thought you could read minds, don't you already know what I want to know?" I questioned to try and lighten the mood. She smiled a bit. 

"I don't actually. I told you I was not looking forward to this conversation, so I kinda blocked out your questions. Besides, I can't read minds through a certain distance so anything you were thinking about at your Omega-mansion of doom wouldn't have been heard." It was silent for a bit. Until she started up again. "Anyway, you need help from me, I need help from you. So it's a fair trade." 

"You need help....... from me?" She nodded her head. "What do you need help with? I mean, this base is amazing so there isn't much that I could help you with that and...." I got cut off. 

"No, Grian it has nothing to do with my base"

"I need help with Memory Recall," She said, and my eyes went wide. 

"I'm sorry, I can't help you." I turned and started to leave. I was almost at the door but she grabbed my wrist. 

"Grian wait! I know you're a watcher! I know where Exelequin is! I know about all of it! I can answer some of your questions but not all of them! Just please, I need you to help me!" She started crying, but I didn't know what for. I relaxed and she wiped away her tears. "Please help me" she mumbled, but I heard it. I pulled her over to the couch in the living room and sat her down. She seemed ok now, but I still wasn't sure. 

All those things she said? No one was supposed to know except Xisuma, Exelequin, and I. Well, I wasn't supposed to know but I did anyway. I turned on my communicator and opened up Xisuma's contact. I called and quickly hung up three times, which was our way of telling each other that we needed help now! I also sent him a quick message to tell him where I was so he knew where I needed him to be. 'Spirit knows. We are at her base.'

------------------------------------------------------------

       (Xisuma)

One call. 

Two call. 

Three call.

After the third call I knew something was up. I looked at the contact and realized it was Grian. Hurrying, I grabbed a stack of rockets since I didn't have any in my immediate inventory, and checked my communicator once again for a location. 

'Spirit knows. We are at her base.'

If my communicator wasn't on my wrist, I would have dropped it. Turning it off, I spammed rockets and went to Spirits base as fast as I could. How much does she know? Are we in trouble? Is everything okay? A million questions were flying everywhere as I landed in front of the Nethery tree. I knocked on the door and Grian answered it. As I walked in, I noticed a faint purple outline surrounding him which usually meant he was scared or frightened. 

"Grian," He looked at me. 

"Hmmm" 

"Are you okay?" He looked down at the floor and bit his lip. 

"I'm sorry. That's probably my fault." Spirit said. I looked around and noticed her standing up from the couch. She didn't have her horns, and her eyes were a light hazel. She was wearing what looked to be one of Grian's hoodies but purple, and it seemed to be covering her wings. 

"First, let's sit Grian down before he destroys anything." I directed Grian toward the couch and he sat down. "Second, how much do you know"

"Oh so he told you..." she said quieter than her normal tone. 

"Of course he told me! This is a serious matter!"

"I know this is a serious matter but it's not like I'm gonna tell anyone! Besides, some of the hermits already have their suspicions." Both Grian and I were silent. "Tango has heard the same things, if not more of what I have heard! Scar has already found Exelequin when trying to find a Jellie cat, and......" she suddenly stopped talking. Grian stood up from the couch and almost knocked me over. 

"Xisuma..." Grian whispered. 

"What?" I whispered back. 

"Check what's on the other side of the door." I sighed and closed my eyes. Opening them again, I looked toward the door and spotted two figures. Both with large wings and a marking that I had seen before.

"We gotta get out of here."

'Be quiet and follow me' Spirit said in my head. 'I'll alert Tango'

"What do you mean alert Tango?" I whispered to her. She put a finger to her lips and motioned for us to come over to her. Grian and I both looked at each other with questioning looks. 

'Come on! Do you want them to catch us or not!' We both went over to Spirit as she opened a portal and we walked through. But not before I watched the two figures burst open the door with a pure purple light. 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

              (Tango)

'Tango, come here, NOW!' I went to the edge of my tower and looked down. There was Spirit, Xisuma, and Grian all running into the towers. I ducked back into the Tower. I didn't have my jacket on! 'Tango don't worry about your jacket, now a better time than any so come on! This is urgent!'

I sighed and flew down to where the three were. Spirit was taking off her purple sweatshirt just as she made her horns appear. Her eyes were back to their normal red color too. Grian and Xisuma were staring mouths wide at me, and I sighed again. 

"Today is gonna be a long day isn't it?" I asked. 

"No time. Spirit, you message everyone to meet in the town hall. Grian and Tango, make sure everyone gets there. I am going to get Exel." Xisuma said as we all nodded. Grian was biting his lip, contemplating taking off his sweatshirt. Which he did. Setting it on the ground, he stretched his lilac-colored wings and took to the sky. 

"Tango you coming?" I chucked as I took to the sky too. Following him to wherever he was going.
