~~Grian's POV~~

-2 hours later-

I opened my eyes, my head hurt like hell. I sat up slowly the place I was in was somewhere I had never been. My breathing slowed at the thought, the world seemed to slow down but my heart was beating faster by the second. Horrible flash backs to when the watchers took me, I started to cry. 'The watchers got me, they're going to kill the hermits.'

Then I heard a key turn, I reached to my head to see if my helmet was on when I felt cloth. Not cloth a makeshift bandage, the Watchers never cared to give me bandages, hell Ēna would probably let me bleed out if, Mēness didn't insist that I was special.

My thoughts were interrupted by a JoeHills who gasped at me. I looked at him nearly jumping out of the bed I was in. "W-what? How'd I get here" Joe gaped at me. "Im the one who should be asking questions! I found you knocked out on the floor and now you have wings!"

"WHAT HOW LONG WAS I OUT!!" Joe stepped next to me putting a hand on my shoulder, clearly trying to calm me down. He still was focusing on my large purple wings. I shoved his hand off my shoulder, tucking my wings closer to me "You mind!" I screamed. Joe backed up.

"You were out for two hours Grian what happened?" Joe sounded quieter probably shocked at my reaction. Judging by the fact that no one else was there he probably was the only one who new about my wings.

"Grian will you answer my question?" Right he asked a question, I sighed I could tell Joe I knocked myself out or I could lie. "I tripped over my shulker boxes and knocked myself out!" It was so obvious that I was lieing. "Well, it seems luck wasn't on your side today."

I nearly face palmed at how easy Joe was. I positioned myself to where I was sitting on the side of the bed. Joe took the hint and sat on the chair that was opposite the bed. There was an akward silence when he cleared his throat "So Grian, how'd you get wings?"

I was stumped, I really didn't want to mention the Watchers but how do you explain having wings? I really did hate lieing to the hermits especially someone like Joe. But I do what I must do. "I was born with wings I guess...?

He nodded and got off the chair and gave me a hand to get up. He smiled and started speaking, "You can head back off to your base, your head stopped bleeding so you should be good! Just take it easy, you don't want it to start bleeding."

I smiled back and waved to him. I walked out the door and took off, I didn't bother to hide my wings. If I stayed high enough in the air no one would see me. I was in such a better mood now, I would be lieing if I said I didn't need the rest.
