Chapter Text
Vouwp! Poof! Rythian popped into existence in the Newest World.
A slight shiver passed through his body as the fresh cold air surrounded him. His shape vibrated slightly and then formed into a tall black creature with violent purple eyes. He wore a backpack and a sword belt that held a vibrant black and violet rapier.
He had appeared in a small clearing next to a pond named Paul and a large red cottage. The gentle rattle and meow of a train of cats sounded out in the night air, accompanied by the bubble and pop of kettle, cauldron and crucible. All was peaceful; that is, it was until someone ran a sword through his stomach.
He looked down in surprise at seeing a deep gray steel sword protruding through his middle. He gurgled slightly and then wobbled around to face his attacker before falling down onto his back and screaming as the sword was pushed deeper into him. He blacked out.
Lomadia was woken by the sound of something teleporting outside her base.
“Bloody Endermen, when will they learn that any one of them who comes near here is going to die!” she snarled, grabbing her sword and pulling on her armour. Nilsey rolled over in his sleep on the other side of the room, briefly muttering something about cats, fish and apples before continuing to snore gently.
The witch opened the door and stealthily crept up behind the tall black creature that was stood right on top of her carrots! Of all places why there!
She quickly plunged her sword through the apparent enderman’s body with a sickening shick but before she could pull it out again it turned around towards her and it was wrenched from her grip. Unarmed she watched as the great creature gurgled slightly before falling backwards into the ground, driving the sword further into its body. As it screamed a black mist rose up around it’s body and started pulling at its flesh. When the mist cleared Lomadia saw the true form of the creature she had attempted to kill.
Rythian lay on his back with a sword sticking out of his stomach, his breath coming in ragged gasps, his skin pale and a large blood stain was growing around the wound.
“Nilsey!” Came the shout that roused the cat lover from his sleep. Stumbling around his bed he tripped over Mr. Cat and Fishbone before pulling on his own armour and racing out to see what was going on.
As he exited the cottage he noticed the figure lying on the carrot and potato patch, sword sticking out of his chest, blood pooling out around him and dripping into Paul.
“Lom! What the Hell did you do! Don’t you know that stabbing someone through the stomach is never good?” He reached Lomadia and the unconscious Rythian and cursed. “Aww hell. He’s going to hunt you down when we get him conscious. Remember the grudge he held against Lalana?"
“Yeah well it’s Lalna that’s gonna help him. Go rouse him from whatever deep sleep he’s in. He’s the only one with the medical knowledge to fix this guy up.
“Well if you hadn’t run him through with a sword in the first place we wouldn’t need to ask Rythian’s arch enemy for help fixing him up!” Grumbled Nilsey as he flew off towards Panda Labs.
Lalna was sitting in the Thaumcraft basement when there came a knock at the main entrance. He shot up the elevators and opened the door to see Nilsey standing there. The man was pale as a sheet and breathing heavily as if he had just run the Minecraftia Marathon.
“LomranRythianthroughwithaswordneedhelpnow!”The Scottish man half shouted at Lalna before awkwardly hopping back on his broom and flying off back towards the Evicted cottage.
Lalna gathered together a bunch of medical supplies and left a note on the fridge to tell Kim where he went before popping a portal on the wall and flying off after Nilsey with the use of his hang glider and jetpack.
Back at the Evicted base, Lomadia had managed to roll Rythian on to his front and pull the sword out of him. Even though he looked really tall and thin, the man was very heavy and it had taken a lot of effort to roll him over. Fortunately he was unconscious, otherwise he would have been screaming in pain. It took very little to slide the sword out of him though which was good.
When Nilsey and Lalna got there, they heaved him through a portal to Panda Labs and set him down on Lalna’s bed. His wounds were stitched up and he was given some painkillers. Kim and Lomadia went downstairs and brewed up five cups of tea, one in preparation for when Rythian woke up.
Once that was done the four conscious people sat down around the kitchen table and listened as Lomadia recounted just how she had managed to run Rythian through with a sword. Eventually, after two more cups of tea and a slice of cake, the Evicted team departed, promising to come and visit when the Endermage awoke.
