《The Fallen Council》VII
Advertisement
I carefully glared at Mumbo and Iskall, who were trying to figure out what was wrong with Sahara. The light was stuck and they had no idea who was the reason. Apparently they knew that a certain item had made its way to the Sahara redstone system.
"Grian, do you know anything about this?" Iskall turned to look at me. He looked like he knew that it had been me.
"Whaat? Nooo!" I tried to act like I didn't know anything but it wasn't really successful.
"What did you do? We told you not to touch the redstone!" Mumbo sighed face-palming. He didn't look really happy.
"Nothing," I smirked giving up.
Iskall and Mumbo sighed and looked at me.
"Seriously Grian! What did you throw to the system?" Iskall asked.
"Okay, okay! You said that Sahara was brilliant so I decided to try it out and I did like this," I explained and threw a rotten flesh to the system.
"No-! You did it again!" Mumbo explained.
"Well, looks like we'll have to rebuild the whole machine!" Iskall sighed. "See you in three months!" He shouted taking off with his elytras.
"Get back here and get the potato out of the machine!" I shouted after him holding laughter.
Luckily Mumbo and Iskall were able to get the potato out of Sahara and now it was working almost perfectly. We had a small meeting before I left back to my base.
Grian opened his front door and was faced with a chaos. In the corner Zanax was messing with potions while Teni was just looking at her with a little curious but also suspicious glare. Xenex was standing in front of the couch with a wooden sword in his hand facing Techno, who was standing behind couch also having a wooden sword in his hand. Sherenidy was nowhere to be seen.
Grian just stared at the scene before raising his voice and getting everyone's attention.
"What is going on? You're being loud and someone might hear that! We don't want to caught, don't we?" He spoke out glaring at everyone.
Everyone mumbled something as an answer. Techno and Xenex put their swords away and sat on the couch. Teni left Zanax alone and moved to the armchair while Zanax just collected her potions and stood up from the ground. Grian sighed as he looked at everyone.
"Did the potato-problem get solved?" Techno smirked.
"Ouch," Grian grinned jokingly. "The problem's now solved and the potato is out of Sahara's redstone," He answered.
Everyone's attention moved to the stairway as the orange haired female stormed downstairs.
"I FOUND INFORMATION ABOUT DOWNSIDE-UP! Or more like I found someone who knows more about it, but it doesn't really matter, it's the same. BUT I KNOW WHAT WE HAVE TO DO!" Sherenidy shouted with excitement in her voice.

Everyone looked at her with curiosity and maybe a little bit of hope in their eyes. The female quickly sprinted to the living room and hopped to sit on the couches armrests next to Xenex.
"Well, in these reports there is mention someone that I remember. Dylan Cade Soulton, does that name say something to any of you?" She asked looking around hopefully.
Techno, Zanax and Xenex shook their heads. Grian thought for a moment before slowly nodding, he had heard the name. Teni thought about it too and ended up nodding slightly.
"Well, he was a Lead Watcher in the beginning of The Council, but had to leave after getting married and wanting to just live his life with his wife. But before that we got a change to visit Downside-up. Back then I didn't understand the power and what it could do. But he did and he probably still remembers. He could help us with information," Sherenidy spoke out.
"I've met The Lead Watcher Cade before," Teni said running their hand through their sandy blonde hair.
"He lives in the End right now. I bet that he still remembers since he is really powerful," Sherenidy assumed.
"Are we going to look for him?" Xenex tilted his head.
"I say that we should, but it's up to you," The orange haired Watcher crossed her arms.
"I agree, we should go," Grian nodded and ran his hand through his dirty blonde hair looking at everyone.
"We should go," Teni nodded too.
"That is a good idea. I'll agree too," Xenex smirked.
"Sounds good to me," Techno shrugged.
"I don't really have anything against a trip to The End," Zanax let out a laugh.
"Looks like we're going there," Sherenidy smirked. "We can leave tonight if no one resist," She continued.
No one seemed to have anything against it. They decided to leave in a couple of hours. They weren't expecting a new member to their group, the needed only information about the Downside-up.
Grian was sitting in his bed and went through his communicator. He was making sure that Hermitcraft was doing well and nothing was wrong. He had already prepared for the short trip to The End and was ready to go as the time came.
Teni was sitting in the kitchen and started out of the window. They were from The End and had lived there almost their whole life. This was going to be the first time in a long time when they got to go there without being under Oneuses control. They were kinda scared but also really excited to see their old home.
Techno picked up another sword from his bed. He had to choose what he would take to The End with him. He had many different swords with different enchants. It had definitely been a really long time since he had last been in The End. He had run away from The End and Oneuses. He sighed and ran his hand through his pink hair.

Xenex drifted his glare through his bookcase. He didn't really mind going to The End, it was his homeworld after all and he had grown up there with his brother, Xisuma. He just didn't really like the Watchers that were in charge there. The Watchers had been the original reason he had moved to the overworld.
Zanax took a couple of potions out of her inventory and analyzed them. She was really familiar with The End since it was her home. If she wasn't forced to help her sister and her annoying friends, she would be living peacefully in The End. She didn't mind a chance to go back to her home and pick up a couple of things that she needed for some new positions.
The window mirrored the orange haired Watchers reflection. She could see her purple eyes that were glowing as she kept up her spell that allowed her to breathe the air in the overworld. In The End she could easily breathe the air without any problems. She had no idea if the trip was going to be even close to successful, but she had to hope for the best. She could barely remember what The ex-Lead Watcher looked like. Does he even remember her? That was another question. The female sighed and picked up her precious dagger to her left hand.
"What do you think? Is it going to be successful?" She smirked as she spoke to the dagger.
Answered a voice inside her head.
Her face turned from slightly happiness to totally mentally dead as she heard the voice.
'Can you just die again, please?' She groaned.
The voice answered.
The female growled as it annoyed her. She decided to block the voice out of her head, but only temporarily, sadly.
Her eyes drifted to her right hand. There was still a red mark from the time Deger had burned it. She didn't expect it to heal anytime soon since Deger had been absolutely burning and filled with demonic-energy. She sighed and moved her eyes back to her dagger. It was glowing as the moonlight hit it.
Her eyes moved to the window and she saw the moon shining in the night sky. It was already almost midnight. The female yawned and tried to remember when she had last slept. She didn't really sleep since The Mains' duties had always been taking so much time. Now even if she didn't have any of them, she still lives with her fucked-up-sleeping-rhythm. It didn't really bother her though.
She glared at the clock. They had to leave soon. She sighed and stood up starting to prepare for the trip.
The dirty blonde stood up as he heard a knock on the door. He quickly hurried out of his room and to the front door. As he opened it, he saw their admin standing there.
"Oh, X-eye-suma!" He produced the admins name wrong on propose. "What are you doing here this late? It's literally almost midnight!" He was really surprised.
"I just had to quickly come and make sure that everyone's alright. There's a small glitch on the system and we decided that it would be best to that everyone's alright," The tired sounding admin explained.
"Oh, I see. Well, I'm alright. You really should go sleep, you look really tired," Grian pointed out with a little worry in his voice.
"Don't worry. I'm alright, I'll just have to finish a couple of things before I can sleep," The admin sighed.
Then Xisuma said byes to Grian and continued to the next door. Grian looked after the admin before closing the door and turning around to face Xenex.
"Looks like he's overworking himself again," The white haired male sighed taking off his red helmet.
"Tell me about it," Grian sighed.
"Who was that? The admin?" Teni asked peeking from the kitchen.
"Yeah. That was Xisumavoid, the admin of Hermitcraft," Grian gave a nod to the sandy blonde.
They nodded before fading back to the kitchen to do whatever they were doing.
"So, are you ready to go?" Grian asked from the armored male, who gave him a nod.
"I think that almost everyone is ready to go. We can probably leave soon," Xenex ran a hand through his white hair. "How are you planning on sneaking out of the server?" He continued asking.
"We're going to use my portal. I can trick it to not tell people that I left. It will be risky if someone finds out that I am nowhere in the server but I'm still listed online. But we'll have to take that risk. There isn't actually a really big change that someone will notice that I'm missing," Grian explained.
"I see," Xenex nodded.
Then their attention moved to the stairway as everyone made their way downstairs and to the living room.
"Are we ready to go now?" Grian asked and everyone nodded. "Let's go then!" He smirked and opened an End portal with his Watcher-powers.

The Legion of Nothing
Nick Klein is your average high school geek--if you can still count as average when your grandfather is a retired superhero, and you've been trained in the martial arts by his friend, a mysterious, immortal mercenary. After his grandfather dies, Nick inherits the last version of the Rocket suit, powered armor that allows him to shrug off bullets, smash through walls, and manipulate sound. Along with it comes the base of his grandfather's superhero team including the team's jet and trophies from forty years of fighting criminals and aliens. Together, Nick and his friends, descendants of his grandfather's teammates, attempt to bring back a superhero team that was originally formed during World War 2. Along the way they'll face the normal problems of high school (bullies, homework, and dating), and the less normal problems like supervillians and mysteries leftover from their grandparents' past. As a story, it uses the conventions of all eras of comics from the 1940s on, ranging from serious to silly. If you're hoping for a grim and gritty story, this isn't it. The Legion of Nothing first debuted on my website legionofnothing.com in 2007. In that period it's updated more than 900 times, is still running, and has had millions of pageviews. The first two years have been released as an ebook, receiving good reviews on Amazon and Goodreads. I hope you'll enjoy it, and that you'll review it and comment. You can also vote for it on Top Web Fiction and rate it on Web Fiction Guide. Member of The Order of Phantasmal Architects.

Glitch — Alpha [Swedish] [Svenska]
Otilia jobbar på förskolan när ett barn försvinner rakt framför ögonen på henne. Sekunder efteråt kommer barnet tillbaka, som att inget hänt. Hon tror att hon är överarbetad, men när försvinnanden börjar hända överallt och de som kommer tillbaka inte är sig själva, förstår Otilia att något, någonstans gått riktigt snett. När hon och hennes pojkvän får en idé om vad som kan vara orsaken gör de allt för att informationen ska komma fram till rätt personer. Detta är en skräck/thriller som innehåller ganska mycket blod och våld. Även mot och med barn. Om detta stör dig råder jag att du håller dig borta. Detta är också den första boken jag någonsin skrev (2015, och knappt rörd sedan dess) och var ämnad att bli en trilogi. Eftersom den bara har legat och skräpat i hårddisken under alla dessa år tänkte jag att jag lika gärna kunde släppa den här. Trevlig läsning! ********* For English readers: (Might as well add this information in English to save the lovely souls looking through our works some time) I probably won't translate this work, but I'm working on another translation within YA, if that's something you'd be interested in. This one's horror/thriller, so.. yeah. Maybe sometime in the future. Otilia works at a daycare when a child disappears. Seconds later, the child reappears, like nothing had happened. She thinks she's worked too much, but when disappearences start to happen all around the globe, she and her boyfriend realize that something has gone really, really wrong. When they get an idea about what could be the cause, no matter how unbelievable, they will do everything in their power to get the information to the right people. This was my first-ever-novel and my first gamelit story (though I had no idea that was a thing/genre at the time). This novel contains a lot of violence and blood and can be uncomfortable to read for some people. There is also some violence from, and off-screen violence to, children.
