Chapter Warnings: Blood/gore, please, this aint gonna be a pretty chapter-

Edit: so its not as bad as I said it would be...

Before we begin, I would like to tell you what each hermits 'text' will look like. When Allister is connected to a group of shifters, they can all communicate in their minds. 

Bold is Allister

Italic is Viper

Underlined is Tango

Bold italic is Impulse

Underlined Italic is Bdubs

Underlined bold is Grian

Im ever so sorry, but its probably going to be very confusing. But i'll try and help ya'll out best I can.

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

Third Person POV: 

Allister wanted to destroy HermitCraft. To burn the server to flames. 

All because she tried to make them happy. She, alone with the help of that friend of hers,  whats-his-face, made him even more blinded by rage. Revenge. 

Scar was still sleeping, not to Allister's surprise. 

What kind of adult even spends their time watching Disney?

Oh hush, Allister. Its a good movie.

Gotta agree with the lady on this one-

The five humanoid figures (I might accidentally say 'five hermits' or 'the five players'sometimes, sorry yall-) silently climbed up the ladder of Larry the snail. Of course, with Allisters... help. 

Grian, Tango, and Viper all held shining blue swords, Impulse and Bdubs with shining bows. 

Viper hissed quietly as Bdubs walked over to Scar. Well, it wasn't really Bdubs, in all honesty. It was Allister. He drew his bow, green tipping the arrows he carried. 

Do I have to?

Yes, hush. 

Hey, demon cat?

What do you want, idiot? Allister hissed.

Why are you doing this?

You'd better hush, Impulse. 

If you know whats good for you, you'd listen to the lady. 

Thats right, bow down to me. 

Yeah, listen to the lady Impulse- Grian teased. 

Wait, why are we here again?

Revenge, darling. Revenge.

Wait, what'd Scar do?

He didnt do anything-

Yeah, Allister.

Shush, idiot. You caused this, you know?

S'cuse me?

Surprising? I think not.

Allister was getting irritated with the five people, so, without warning, Bdubs released. Oh, who was Allister kidding, they did it. No, it wasnt Bdubs. It was all Allister.

Scar woke up with a scream. He must have been confused to see five pairs of red eyes and a slightly glowing eyes, because he screamed again and fumbled for his communicator. Luckily for him, Bdubs aim was pretty terrible. It had only gotten Scar's arm, so even without a healing potion, he would be fine. He raced over to the ladder and down it, crimson dripping down his arm, and none of the five red-eyed people tried to stop him. 

Hm. Whos next? 

Please not-

You probably shouldn't say it. 

Who are we thinking about? Oh, right, Z-

G! My man, you need to shush!

What am I supposed to do with you all...

Oh! You could let us go!

I second this-

As do I-

You cant both second it-

Does that mean yes?

No.

Well, we tried.

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

Not five minutes later had Xisuma arrived, accompanied by False and Iskall. 

Xisuma's come to save us!

Ex-eye-zooma

Xisuma

Definitely just Xisuma.

Shush!

In sync, the five shifters drew their weapons.

Hey, that was like band class!

Band nerd.

I mean, Tangos not wrong-

True-

After doing it so many times, ya'll would understand.

Xisuma, False, and Iskall didn't hesitate to draw their weapons. But neither team struck first. 

Viper hissed. A quiet, distressed hiss. Although she couldn't speak nor control her actions, she could hiss. Just like Grian, if he could figure out how, would be able to chirp. 

The minds of the shifters and the voices of the normal hermits were silent. They all stood in ready stances, prepared to strike, before Xisuma spoke. 

"Let them go," He growled. He must have known Allister could hear him, but False and Iskall didnt. 

Allister hissed. Then they struck.

Well, the shifters did. 

Viper, being in the middle of the five, shot forward to X. Bdubs and Impulse were shooting at Iskall and False, while Grian was up against Iskall, Tango against False. 

Diamond went on diamond as the hermits and shifters fought. Bdubs and Impulse had pulled out swords, and fought along side the three other shifters. The way they all fought almost looked like a dance. Practiced thousands upon thousands of times. They were all covered in crimson, maybe not from head to toe, but they all bore wounds.

Viper still hissed occasionally, sometimes out of pain, sometimes out of guilt. Grian had once managed to chirp. 

Almost like a routine, it was as smooth as a sword fight could be. 

Almost like a dance-

Huh?

Nothing. 

When do you think they'll stop?

Not until I so please.

So the fighting continued. Grian and Impulse had False cornered, and behind the fire of rage in her eyes, there was fear. 

Over with Xisuma, he and Viper were still one on one. 

Tango and Bdubs were still going strong, just like Iskall. 

Until things went south. False had managed to escape Grian and Impulse, having enough time to call over a few more hermits. 

Nobody killed. Allister never had Viper drive her sword into X's throat when she had the chance. Bdubs didnt plunge his shining sword into Iskalls chest when Impulse had him pinned. 

Despite the whole fight, the hermits still had respect. False could have easily killed Grian or Impulse when she had them backed up, just as Iskall could have finished Bdubs and Tango, but didn't. Xisuma hesitated to finish off Viper once and for all. He chose not to. 

Mumbo had arrived just moments before Grian dropped to the ground. No more than a few moments later, so did Bdubs. 

Allister had let them go. X shouted something that none of the shifters could make out, but Mumbo and Iskall. Mumbo picked up Grian, Iskall picked up Bdubs, and they ran through the jungle. 

Viper once again had X cornered, a threatening sword pointed at his neck. 

Tango and Impulse were advancing on False, who was fighting back with bravery. She moved her sword with such skill, it was amazing. She knocked Tango's sword out of his hands, and eventually managed to do the same to Impulse. 

Then they dropped to the ground. 

Had enough fun, Allister?

I suppose. 

They let Viper drop her sword, but the red didn't fade from her eyes. She, like X, was breathing heavily, and shot a glance and Tango and Impulse. She hissed softly, and X slowly walked over to Impulse and Tango without taking his eyes off Viper. 

Viper sat down against a tree, but still wasn't free of Allister. 

You did well, Viper.

Never do that to them again.

It was fun, dont you agree?

Of course not, I watched them try and destroy their friends...

Thats the beauty of it all.
