IX

[Grian]

     I stared at the base's floor. There was blood. Blood that was dripping from my left arm. The other looked horrified. All of sudden my arm had started bleeding, a lot. I didn't know what was going on. I just started at my sleeve, which was changing color to bloodier-red.

"Grian, " Stress sounded really worried. "We should go to The Main World's medical center."

"Come on Grian," Iskall took my right hand and started pulling me.

The others, Stress, Cleo, Joe, Tango, Jevin, followed us.

I didn't know what was happening. I just followed Iskall while my hand was bleeding. I hadn't even noticed anything before I had looked at the others and seen their faces.

{The Main World}

     We walked inside the medical center, or rather me, Iskall, Stress and Cleo. Joe, Tango and Jevin waited outside. As we walked in, I saw the blonde nurse standing in front of a chair, clean up wounds of brown haired Main Admin.

"A second, please," The nurse said to us without even looking.

She quickly finished taking care of the brown haired Main and turned around to look at us.

"Oh my!" The blonde hurried to us and carefully grabbed my left arm.

I looked behind her and my eyes met Mao's green eyes. He gave me a slight nod before getting up and walking to us.

"What might have happened?" Haylie examined my arm.

"We don't really know. Grian just started bleeding without a reason, it seems like," Stress told the nurse, who nodded.

"Hey ⍑ᔑ||ꖎ╎ᒷ," Mao put his hand on the nurse's shoulder, who turned to look at the Main.

"You can go," The nurse nodded, I could see the seriousness in her face.

Mao nodded too. He looked at me before leaving the medical center.

We all knew that Error had something to do with this.

"Sit down here," Haylie pointed at an empty bed.

I did as she said and sat down. My friends stood next to the bed still looking worried. I saw Haylie go get something from the another side of the room.

"How are you feeling?" Cleo asked.

"I don't really know," I admitted.

I was feeling really weird. It didn't hurt but I wasn't feeling alright either.

Haylie walked back to me and looked at my arm. She sighed and hurried back to the other side of the room again.

"Excuse me, but I ask you to leave for a moment," I looked up to see Sherenidy standing next to my friends.

The looked a bit shocked to see the orange haired Watcher but nodded and left after giving me a smile.

Sherenidy looked at me. Haylie had also gotten next to me again. She was now holding my left arm while Sherenidy crouched in front of the bed I was sitting on.

"Can you hear me?" Shen looked into my eyes, or at least it looked like it since she had the Watcher's mask on.

As a Watcher myself, I had learned to read the other Watchers' face from behind the mask we had to wear all the time.

I slightly nodded.

"You'll probably pass out soon," She said taking my right hand and starting to draw something on it with Deger.

I didn't feel the pain. I didn't feel anything. Slowly I started falling into the darkness.

{Time skippi}

     I opened my eyes slowly. My left arm was hurting like Hell, once again. I saw someone sitting on my bed. As my vision started becoming better, I could recognize the brown haired Watcher next to me.

"ꖌᔑᓭᒷリ..?"

He turned around and looked at me.

"You're awake!" He smiled at me.

"What.. Happened.?" I asked.

"The magic ᒷ∷∷𝙹∷ used to make the cut in your arm had some kind of strong poison in it. ᓭ⍑ᒷリ mentioned something about demonic poisons or something like that, I wasn't listening that closely," Kasen explained.

The curtain was opened and Haylie sneaked in closing it behind her.

"How are you feeling?" She crouched next to me.

"A lot of pain," I didn't really know what to answer.

The nurse nodded.

"It used poisoned demon magic on you," She explained. "I told your friends that you had just gotten some kind of poison to a wound you had in your arm," She continued.

I nodded. I was already feeling better, if we didn't talk about the pain.

"You're able to go back to Hermitcraft in around an hour. But you'll have to take it easy," Haylie told before leaving.

"You'll be alright by yourself? I have some work to do if you don't mind," Kasen said.

"No, I don't mind. You can go," I tried to smile.

Kasen gave me a smile back and then walked away.

I sighed. I had to face my friends soon. I didn't know what to tell them.

"You can let me handle that part," A familiar voice appeared in my mind making me jump.

'You scared me again!'

"It's your own fault"

'You know what? Fine! I'll let you handle it if you want to'

"Great. But you should sleep for a while before you got to go back to Hermitcraft"

I sighed but closed my eyes and fell asleep quickly.

[No one]

     A hooded female was standing next to a big black wolf. They were surrounded by a dark forest. The wolf looked at the female with it's glowing red eyes. The female was wearing a dark purple cloak and a white mask. Her wings were hidden under the cloak.

"What are you after, Watcher?" The wolf asked.

The Watcher turned to look at the wolf's glowing red eyes and smiled.

"Nothing"

"You shouldn't be here. This is the forest of the dead," The wolf glared at the Watcher.

"I know"

"If you go in, you'll never come back," The wolf turned to look into the gate next to them.

The Watcher giggled, which made the wolf turn back to the masked female. The female crouched next to the wolf and patted it's head carefully.

"Don't you worry about me. I know what I'm doing," The Watchers voice sounded really clear. Like a singing bird.

The wolf hesitated for a while.

"I'm not going to stay there, find my way out I shall," The Watcher stood up.

"Be careful traveler," The wolf growled.

The Watcher gave it one last smile before walking to the gate and disappearing.

The wolf sighed.

"Good luck, you'll need it," It said before walking to another direction.

[???]

The forest was getting darker and darker. It smelt like death. The Watcher didn't mind it. She continued walking deeper and deeper into the forest. Soon she was surrounded by shadows.

"Who might be traveling through the forest of ours?" One of the shadows growled.

The Watchers giggled.

"I am just just traveler, nothing to worry about, honey," She sing with her clear voice.

"An angel, huh?" The shadow laughed. "You shouldn't be here beautiful!"

"Why would you say that?" The Watcher smiled.

"This place is no good. Only dead souls like us," The shadow pointed at them, "An beautiful, innocent angel should not be traveling in these lands!"

"Why should I not?" The Watcher continued smiling.

"This place is cruel. Full of blood and death. No place for an angel, such as yourself," The shadow said.

The Watcher giggled. She took a dagger to her gloved hand.

"Mind letting me through?"

"I don't think that we can"

BANG!

The shadow disappeared as the Watcher stabbed it. One by one the Watcher slaughtered all of the shadows. Then she put the dagger away. She giggled and continued walking deeper into the forest.

Then she saw him.

A man a black cloak. The hood hid his brown hair and eyes were hidden by the white mask. The man turned around to look at the Watcher.

"Didn't expect to see you here," He laughed.

"Well, I'm here now," The female answered.

The man walked to her and put his hand under the female's chin, raising her head. He laughed as he saw the Watchers look.

"Nothing, huh?" He laughed.

The female was a lot shorter than the male. She looked at him not showing any emotions.

"There is something I want you to help me with," The female said coldly.

"I don't do anything for free, keep that in your pretty little mind," The male laughed.

The female looked a bit disgusted and sighed.

"I'll keep that in mind"

"Great~, what do you need me to do?" He smirked.

"There is a creature that needs to be defeated," The female answered.

"Hahaha, I see what you want me to do!" The male laughed.

"Will you help?"

"Well~" The male smirked. "I am not alive, soo~" He put his hand on the female's cheek. "I need a body I can temporarily use while I'm on the mission. Would you like to share yours with me for a while?"

The female gritted her teeth. She didn't have other choices.

"Fine, only for a while. And don't get any dirty ideas or I'll destroy your soul forever!"

"Hahaha, I really like you, you know! Your personality is amazing!" The male laughed.

"Be quick. I'll have to leave soon"

The male laughed and then stabbed the female's chest with his dagger.

The female opened her eyes and the male's body had disappeared. She could feel the visitor inside her mind.

"Now, tell me, honey~" The voice appeared in her mind. "What do I have to do?"
