Forgive and Forget. - Xisuma & EX book - Hermitcraft

Panic Time! • Chapter 10

(WARNING: Tiny bit of swearing)

Xisuma POV

"Brother?"

I shuffled off of my bed, grabbing my helmet also.

I place my helmet onto my head, covering my horns in a comfortable way.

"Brother? We aren't playing hide n seek." I groaned as I did not want to be trying to find my brother and not trying to panic

Fireworks. Outside of my base? They were quite loud.

"Hello?"

*Swoosh*
*Footsteps?*

"X?"

"Yes Pearl?"

"Uhh.. I'm needing to tell you something."

"Alright. Would you like to sit down?"

"Yeah, sure."

I lead Pearl over to my kitchen(ah yes.) then pulled out a chair for her. 'I'm so good at being a gentleman' I thought to myself and smiled slightly under my helmet.

"Thanks X." Pearl sat down and pulled her chair in.

"So what did you need to say?" I spoke as I pulled my chair out and sat down.

"Well- how do I put this?" Pearl took a deep breath.
"Well.. I have been kinda hearing voices. Like two of them."

"What do they sound like?"

"I uh.. like voices..?"

"Wow. Such good information." I said sarcastically.

"I know, but anyways the voices sound distorted, like their voice is muffled by something. Sometimes their voices sound clear."

"When did this start?"

"Ever since we trapped actually wait no, it started at my base. But they become more clear around your base for some reason."

"I see... Pearl. You said something about trapping? What DID you trap?"

"Mumbo, Grian and I just trapped some wardens for a prank."

"Ah.." X stood up from his seat, "Pearl I think this conversation is over."

Pearl made a nervous chuckle. "Y-yeah uh, I have to be off."

Pearl rushed out of X's base, flying off quickly.

X sat back in the chair and took off his helmet.
"What am I going to do.."
He clutched his hair, annoyed at himself.

"Under"

"What?"

"Under."

"..."

"Base."
"Check."
"Agreed."

I still held onto my hair, listening to the voices that were very clear and not distorted at all.. they seemed to have power.

"We recognize you."
"We do."
"Admin Xisumavoid."
"We recognize you from the past."
"Very clear."

"How??"

"It's simple."
"Im the one that listens to your problems."
"I watch you deal with your problems"
"We're the overseers of this server."

"I don't recognize you guys.."

"Oh. But you do."

"I sense.. ——-?"

"Mmm.."
"Me."
"Me."
"Me."

I zoned out for a moment, not hearing someone come into my base and just watch me.

"———-, ——. Show yourself."

Two tall shadow figures appeared (7'8 ft tall)
"You want us?" A white mask appeared on the figure's face. A white mask with a purple portal?

"We are here for service." A mask appeared on this figure's face also, but it was a lime swirl.

"Your magic feels different."

"Normal for us."
"Truly is."
"I'm a Watcher." It did a bow.
"Prime Listener." It did a bow also like the others figure.

"Pause. There is someone else here."
I shoved on my helmet as both of the figures blocked anyone from seeing me at all.

*CRACK*

I looked up at where the figures should be, I'm guessing the one with the purple mask has turned its head to someone.

The one with the lime turned also. "Pearl. We spoke before."

"Yeah... uhh.. I was just leaving."

"Don't allow her to."
Pearl stared at me with horror.

"X-X uhh why can't I leave..?"

"Xisumavoid. We must let her go, she must be free to save."
"She does have to be free. Allow to spread her wings and fly."

I listened to the figures, walking over to Pearl.

"Hey X.."

"Pearl. Do you know where my brother went? I know you didn't trap wardens with Mumbo or Grian."

"I don't know where your DUMB brother went."

I stared dead at her. Now angry that she called my brother dumb.

"———. Am I allowed to."

"Mmmm.. Quila?"
"Harm can be done."
"We allow you to."

I smiled before grabbing Pearl's arm and dragging her to the exit of my base.
"Goodbye Pearl."
With that. I threw her off of my base.

Down.
Down.
Down.
Down.
Pause.
Saved.

"We can't allow her to die."
"The plot would be ruined."

"Plot?"

"You said too much, X."

"I BARELY SAID ANYTHING!" I snapped out at them.

"DON'T RAISE YOUR FUCKING VOICE AT YOUR GODS."
"Quila."
"SILENCE GLIDED."
"You fucked up." Glided hissed, vanishing into lime smoke then Quila vanished also but into purple smoke.

"I want to find my brother." I mumbled, waking into my room to just think of where he could be.
