Forgive and Forget. - Xisuma & EX book - Hermitcraft

Well, well-? • Chapter 9

Pearl POV

I groaned as my communicator was pinging like crazy, "I just want to sleep." I yawned and went to grab my communicator.

"Huh..? It's in the group with Mumbo and Doc." I opened the chat, looking at the messages.

Totally not suspicious plan trio
<Docm77> Hello.
<Docm77> Hello..?
<Docm77> Hello?
<Mumbo> Yes Doc? You woke me up.
<Docm77> Yeah sorry 'bout that, but the trap worked.
<Mumbo> So he is trapped?
<Docm77> Yup.
<Mumbo> Also is Pearl awake?
<Pearlescentmoon> Yup I'm here.
<Mumbo> Could I do something rq.
<Docm77> Sure.
<Pearlescentmoon> Yeah.

<Mumbo has renamed Pearlescentmoon to PearlCENTmoon>

<PearlCENTmoon> Why Mumbo.
<Mumbo> You said I could.

<Docm77 has renamed Mumbo to <OffbrandMoustache>
<Docm77 has renamed PearlCENTmoon to Pearl>

<Pearl> Thanks Doc :)
<OffbrandMoustache> This is unfair.
<Docm77> Just come to the trap, we have to figure out what to do with Evil X
<Pearl> On it!

I turned off my communicator before going to change as I'm not just going to wear my PJs

*FANCY TIMESKIP WOOOOO 💃*

I pick up my communicator and flew off, heading to X's base.

"My fancy entrance!" I dove down to the area under X's base that held Evil X.

"Morning Pearl." Doc smiled at me, "Mumbo should be coming soon."

*Splat*

"Oh wowie, it's a wild Mumbo."

"Hi guys." Mumbo stood up and wiped himself off.

"Morning Mumbo" Doc yawned, clearly tired.

"Doc I have a question." I turned to face him.

"Hm?"

"How many hours did you get for sleep?"

"Bold of you to assume I even got an hour of sleep."

"I-"

"Anyways Mumbo, Pearl. Follow me to the room with EX."

Doc walked off with Mumbo following him. 'Starting to regret my decision.' I thought before walking after them both.

We walked into a room that had one-way glass?

"Doc.. shouldn't he have some light?"
I stared at EX that was curled up in a corner of the obsidian box he was in.

"He's use to it."

"Doc, wouldn't that give him memories?" Mumbo walked up to the glass, tapping it.

I walked up beside Mumbo.

Doc shortly after walked up beside me.

"I feel bad.." Mumbo whispered.

"Mumbo. Don't feel bad, EX deserves this."

"I know but like."

I stood awkwardly between them, staring at EX.

EX started to shuffle.

I tapped the glass, hoping to catch EX's attention.

"Pearl?"

"Yes Doc."

"What are you doing?"

"I don't know."

"Alright. Mumbo, could you get some redstone for us? We're gonna somehow trap X also."
