Chapter Text
Grian woke up with some back pain from the endless building yesterday, as the first rays of sunshine hit his face through the large windows that made up most of the main tower. He got up slowly, stretching his arms above his head; he got out his mess nest that is around his bed, dressed himself while thinking about what to do today, picking out an oversized red hoodie and gray pants. After putting on some shoes and combing my hair, he decided to continue working on the base for now. He put on his elytra and grabbed some building supplies from the mess of a storage chests, if you could even still call it that.
"I'll have to fix that at some point." Grian thought out loud, taking many rockets he'll need to fly around his massive tower, launching off the ground and right through the big opening at the side of the futuristic tower. He continued to work on a few walls that needed to be finished as well as continuing to work on the big outer ring; a weird number of monsters had appeared more as of lately, possibly lack of lighting which interrupted the construction of the base more frequently.
Hours had gone by, the sea breeze grew colder as the sun was setting, the last rays of the sun slowly faded away into night, Grain decided to quickly stop by the Shopping District because he was running low on rockets and knew that he would forget to get them in the morning, let out a shaky breath from exhaustion, he took off and flew over the mountain to the district filled with some uncompleted and variable buildings sticking out from each other. Grian carefully flew towards the entrance of the rocket shop, entered inside and used the ender chest to grab the diamonds to buy the rockets, grabbing the necessary amounts and left paying it to the next shop as he realized he needed more supplies.
Seeing the shops of his friends built, with so much variety and uniqueness in the warmer colors fading slowly away with the darkened sky, giving it the sense of a dream, immediately gets snapped out of the trance with calls of help. Not hesitating, Grian flew from the ground and flew into the roofs of the buildings, searching for the source of the screams. Looking down at the ground, he could see False being chased by three creepers, her elytra was broken, and it didn't look like she had a sword on her. Grian tried to look for his too, but he didn't have his sword either. Quickly looking at what he had on him, realizing that he didn't have anything on him, except some eggs.
An idea sparked in his head, he just hoped that'll work. He flew off the roof and flew a little closer to start throwing the eggs at the creepers surrounding False, successfully distracting the creatures for her to escape. Grian flew from roof to roof, luring the creepers to a ledge of a cliff. Using the rest of the eggs to knock the creepers off. As he catches his breath, adrenaline is still rushing that the creepers could have exploded at the lower ended roofs. He did it, he saved someone, his friend with only eggs. He hysterically laughed as he got to process all that happened in a few moments noticed. But had to snap out of his thoughts that now everything is now dark outside, he flew off the cliff and back to his base to not get in the same situation again without any eggs.
As he flew in through the entrance hole and crash landing, he quickly recovered, would throw some materials in chests that he'll remember where he put it on, and then fall back first on his bed and fall asleep without thinking about it.
The next day, Grian woke up more exhausted than yesterday, he decided to not build today as he already made good progress. He already had his clothing on, and his hair isn't messy enough to comb it. He slowly remembers what happened last night and he had to check if False made it out okay, he'll have to go to the district if she is there now and get the supplies that he didn't get last night along the way.
He grabbed his elytra and flew outwards to the district, as he tried to slow down mid-air, the chili air from morning is peaceful and tranquil from up in the air that he forgot he was flying. Grian swiftly goes back to looking for False. After a while, Grian found False with Stress and Cleo amongst everyone else running around like mice. Grian is relieved since she looked unharmed, wanting to fly closer to say good morning that is until then he heard something interesting.
"-I was backed into a corner by those stupid creepers, as someone showed up and saved me by throwing eggs at them!" False explained as he landed on a roof.
"Eggs? Who uses eggs to fight a creeper?" Cleo had a confused look on her face as she questioned.
False thought for a split second before answering, "I don't know, I couldn't tell who it was, it got too dark."
"So, we have a new mystery hero on the server? One that throws eggs?" Stress giggled as she said that, not meaning it too serious.
Grian decided that he had listened in on the conversation for long enough and went to get the supplies he needed. As heading back into the direction of his base, flying above everything else, one word was stuck in his head, 'hero'. He knew Stress didn't mean it seriously but remember the time he scared everyone else as the Phantom Menace. After all, Grian had been getting bored lately....
An idea had sparked in his head.
