                       (Grian)

The first place Tango and I went was to Mumbo's. I knew he was working on a project, and you could never be sure when he would check his communicator. We landed at his base and looked around for a wild Mumbo Jumbo. 

"Doesn't look like he is here" Tango said behind me. I nodded my head and off I flew again. "Where are we going?" He asked flying next to me. 

"His industrial district. I don't know where his portal is so we will have to go by flight."

"Do you know where it is?" 

"No," I hit the sudden realization that this was gonna be much harder. Especially since Mumbo didn't respond to Spirit's message about meeting at the shopping district. As I was flying to where I thought his industrial district was, I saw Iskall in his tree putting on some leaves. "Hey, Iskall!" I yelled at him as I flew down. 

"Hallo!" He said as he looked at us. He stared at us for a few seconds. 

"No time to explain, do you know where Mumbo's industrial district is?" Tango asked Iskall.

"Yes, I do. Follow me." He equipped his elytra and took off. With Tango and I following closely behind.

          (Xisuma)

I didn't want anything to do with those creatures ever again. But it seemed like I would have to. They did say they were gonna find us, and it seemed like they finally did. I was surprised Spirit didn't question anything. Then again, Grian did say she knew everything. 

Grian and Tango just left, and Spirit had said she would wait for everyone at the shopping district while I went to get Exelequin. My brother might have been a bit annoying, but he was still my brother. I closed my eyes and when I opened them again, I was in the icy terrain that was the world border. Looking around, I went into one of the villager's houses and stepped into the fireplace. Pulling a lever, I fell down into an underground base. The same exact base I wanted to be in. 

"Xisuma?" Exel said as his head popped up from around the corner. 

"Hi Exel" 

"What are you doing here? I thought you were only gonna pop by in emergencies"

"This is an emergency."

"What happened?"

"The watchers, they are back." He looked back at me, his eyes wide. 

"Seriously?!?!?! They are back? We were lucky to get out of there with our lives last time, and that was with me, you, and Grian trying to stop them! Now it's just me, you, and Grian again. Not to mention 22 other Hermits who know nothing about them and who don't have anything to defend themselves with!" 

"21"

"What?"

"Tango came out. He is willing to help, and don't forget, we can use our skills to our advantage"

"Ya, but that's dangerous! You and I both know this Xisuma! We gotta be careful!" I bent my head. I knew all this. But we would need all the help we could get if we actually wanted to destroy the watchers this time. "So, we have the two end mages," he started counting on his fingers. "a watcher, and a demon. That's four. Do you really think us four can defeat the watchers? The same watchers that have all the watcher powers passed down from centuries of watchers and can destroy this very earth?"

"You're missing a person"

"What?"

"Your missing a person. Your missing Spirit." His eyes went wide and went black very quickly.
