     A group of three ran through the Original Nether. They were all worried about their friends, who seemed to have disappeared.

"You know where they live?" A lavender haired Watcher asked.

"Yeah," A dirty blonde Watcher nodded.

They stopped in front of a house. They peeked in through the windows and knocked on the door, but the house looked empty.

"Doesn't look good..." A dirty blonde admin gritted his teeth.

"Can you track them down somehow?" The lavender haired Watcher asked worriedly from the other Watcher.

"I can try to.." He hummed as an answer quietly.

He closed his eyes and tried to find something that would help them. All he needed was a small clue, but he wasn't able to find anything.

"Is there any place they could have gone to.?" The dirty blonde admin asked.

"What do you expect from a socially awkward anarchist pig, who is obsessed with potatoes?" The dirty blonde Watcher raised his eyebrows.

"You have a point," The admin grinned.

"We can try to look 'round a bit," The lavender haired Watcher suggested.

The dirty blonde's nodded. The female's idea was good. Standing still like statues wasn't going to help them at all.

"Let's go as a group," The dirty blonde Watcher spoke. He was in charge since he was the only Main in their trio.

"Where are we heading?" The other dirty blonde asked.

"There's a Nether Fortress in that direction. There might be something," The Watcher answered.

The others nodded and they started heading towards the Nether Fortress. They had to find their friends.

     A hooded figure walked through an old castle. They kept walking deeper into the castle knowing that there was something they were looking for.

They were limping down old stone stairs that seemed to be leading into an old basement under the castle.

Spiders and mice lurked in the shadows along with some other creatures, but the traveler didn't seem to care about their surroundings.

They knew exactly what they were looking for and they had to find it. They had a mission they had to finish to save the ones they loved. No matter what, this was going to be important and had to be done.

They reached the end of the stairs and glanced at a metal door. The door was bloody and smelt rotten. It didn't bother them, they just opened it and stepped into the room behind the door.

The room was full of corpses of Watchers' and the air was really thick and smelled like rotten and blood. The walls were bloody and the whole place looked like a mass-murder scene, which it probably was.

They bit their lip as they watched the corpses. They didn't mind seeing bodies, but those bodies where bodies of their Watcher-siblings.

They carefully walked to the bodies and started slowly moving them away. They were looking for someone spectacular, kinda disturbing to go through a pile of bodies, but it didn't disturb them.

"And he's not even here..." They groaned as they realized that none of the bodies had belonged to the person they were looking for.

They stood up and walked to the door closing the door behind them. Now they had to climb up the stairs and find another basement.

     "Oh, they're all fucked," A female with silverish-brown hair sighed.

A glowing female turned to look at the other. She had no idea what the other had meant and was really confused.

"This might be The Council's downfall. They have a traitor inside the walls," The silverish-brunette hummed turning to look at the other.

"What do you mean.?" The glowing female whispered. She wasn't sure if she had heard right.

"The Council has a traitor and Sam is getting really strong. He is trying to get a weapon made of souls of the dead Watchers so he can destroy the whole universe," The silverish-brunette hummed sadly. Her black eyes were full of sadness. "At least my siblings did the best they could. May they be remembered for everything they've done."

"B-but they're not gone yet..?" The other whispered biting her lower lip.

"They will fall, but will they rise up again? We won't know before they make the right choice. But this time lives are going to be lost," The silverish-brunette looked away in the darkness.

"Who is the traitor..?" The other asked quietly. She wanted to know.

"Someone who has been there ever since the beginning," The silverish-brunette hummed.

     I led Dream and Topaz to the Nether Fortress. We all knew that the situation was serious, our friends weren't idiots.

"There's something really strange.." Dream muttered a we entered the Nether Fortress.

"Something has happened here.." Topaz nodded quietly.

We all sensed that there was definitely something wrong with the aura. Something had happened, but what?

"Are you looking for Technoblade Minecraft and Tara Teni Shadowwalker?" A sweet, but serious female voice spoke from the shadows.

We all froze. I was 100% sure I had heard that voice before, but I wasn't exactly sure who it was.

"What do you know about them.?" I asked coldly.

"So you're looking for them! Amazing! Just as he thought! Well, I know where they are!" Her voice was sweet like honey, but now it had a deadly tone.

"Mind telling us where they are? If you don't, we aren't afraid to cause a scene," I threatened her.

"Hahaha, I'm afraid you aren't able to cause a scene once you see who you're going to be against!" She laughed from the shadows.

"Can't you at least tell where they are?" Dream growled.

"I'm not afraid of any of you," She hummed from the shadows. Now she was closer to us.

"Who are you?" Topaz asked quietly.

"You all know me. We've met before!" She giggled and stepped in front of us.

I froze. In front of us was standing a Watcher with red hair and dark blue cloak. Her lips were curved into a smug smirk.

"No fucking way.." Dream whispered.

"As you already know, the name's Levana Leslie Lakewind," She introduced herself even though we all already knew who she was.

"Did you just betray us..?" I managed to whimper.

"Some people are just easier to control than others. For my bad luck, I seem to be an easy one to control," She hummed.

We all knew that we had lost her. She was under Sam's control and there wasn't a way to get her back to our side.

"Now, it's do or die, kill or get killed!" She giggled and summoned her magic.

"We all know that we can't help her anymore... There's no other opinion..." I spoke hesitatedly. The truth hurt like hell.

Leslie sent a dark magic-burst towards Topaz, who screamed a she got thrown into a wall. She fell on the ground, but seemed to be still alive.

I summoned my dual swords and faced my sister. Dream hurried to Topaz. He settled in front of her incase Leslie got the idea to try to kill her when she was unconscious.

"You have always been my sister.." I whispered.

"This is the only opinion left," Leslie giggled, but I was able to hear her pain. She was crying under her mask.

She attacked and I dodged, I attacked and she dodged. Our fight looked like dancing, we fought in perfect sync, but one had to die for the other to survive.

The dance continued for a long time, but we weren't getting exhausted. We both knew that this was going to be the last time we saw each other. I didn't want to kill her, but she was forced to kill me and our other siblings.

I didn't want to be the one who broke our perfect dance, but I knew that I was more powerful.

Biting my lip I sped up our speed and she started struggling right away. I was able to see the panic in her eyes as she noticed that she was going to lose.

Then my sword cut her chest open and she fell on the ground. He mask cracked broken and I started into her fading-purple eyes that were full of tears.

"╎-╎ ↸╎↸リ'ℸ ̣  ᒲᒷᔑリ ℸ ̣ 𝙹... !¡-!¡ꖎᒷᔑᓭᒷ ⎓𝙹∷⊣╎⍊ᒷ ᒲᒷ  ̇/ᒷꖎᑑ⚍ᔑ, ʖ∷𝙹ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ∷..." She cried quietly.

"Shh, shh, save your energy..." I whispered as tears started falling on my cheeks.

"!¡ꖎᒷᔑᓭᒷ ℸ ̣ ᒷꖎꖎ ∴╎リ↸|| ℸ ̣ ⍑ᔑℸ ̣  ⍑ᒷ ∷ᒷᔑꖎꖎ|| ᒲᒷᔑリℸ ̣  ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ ∴𝙹∷ꖎ↸ ℸ ̣ 𝙹 ᒲᒷ..." She begged.

"I will," I sobbed. "You were really an amazing person and a sister to all of us," I whispered.

"リ𝙹∴ ╎ ⊣ᒷℸ ̣  ℸ ̣ 𝙹 ᓭᒷᒷ ᒷ⍊ᒷ∷||𝙹リᒷ.. ᒲ╎リ↸ᓭℸ ̣ 𝙹∷ᒲ, ⨅ᒷリ╎ℸ ̣ ⍑, !¡ᒷ||ℸ ̣ 𝙹リ, ᑑ⚍╎リリ, ╎∷∴╎リ, ᓭ⍑ᒷリ.."

"You'll be remembered," I sobbed. It was hard to say goodbye to someone, especially someone as young as she was.

"╎ℸ ̣ 'ᓭ ᒲ|| 𝙹∴リ ⎓ᔑ⚍ꖎℸ ̣  ᔑリ||∴ᔑ||ᓭ.. ╎ ᓵᔑリ'ℸ ̣  ᒷ⍊ᒷリ ⍑ᒷꖎ!¡ ||𝙹⚍ ⎓╎リ↸ ℸ ̣ ᒷᓵ⍑リ𝙹 ᔑリ↸ ℸ ̣ ᒷリ╎ ʖᒷᓵᔑ⚍ᓭᒷ ╎ ↸𝙹リ'ℸ ̣  ꖌリ𝙹∴ ∴⍑ᒷ∷ᒷ ℸ ̣ ⍑ᒷ|| ᔑ∷ᒷ... ╎'ᒲ ᓭ𝙹∷∷||.." She whispered.

I held her close as her eyes slowly lost their glow. She went limp on my arms. I stared at her and slowly started to realize that she was gone.

Tears filled my eyes. Dream looked at us with teary eyes. Topaz had her eyes opened, but she was weak. She was still able to understand what was happening.

"She's gone..." I whispered quietly.

"You are the oceans grey waves, destined to seek life beyond the shore, just out of reach. Yet the waters ever change, flowing like time, the path is yours to climb.

In the white light, a hand reaches through, a double edged blade cuts your heart in two. Waking dreams fade away. Embrace the brand new day.

Sing with me a song, of birthrights and love. The light scatteres through to the sky above. Dawn breaks through the gloom, white as a bone,

Lost in thoughts all alone..

Sing with me a song, of silence and blood. The rain falls, but can't wash away the mud. Within my ancient heart dwells, madness and pride. Can no one hear my cry?

You are the oceans grey waves, destined to seek life beyond the shore, just out of reach. Yet the waters ever change, flowing like time, the path is yours to climb.

You are the oceans grey waves."

I softly sang the song Sherenidy had been singing when she died. My voice wasn't as clear as hers, but I tried my best, for my sister, all of our siblings.

We had just lost one of our siblings...
