MCYT AU where Hypixel was a former runaway street kid, now-adult-wanderer of the servers that was escaping a fighting ring (shit happens on the road in some servers) when he found that the fighting ring people had kidnapped some street kids to make fighters, but only one was alive yet from the 'training ' after just one month, so when he escaped, he broke into the cell, scooped the little one up, and took the kid with him.

The boy -six years old at the time- was Technoblade.

Hypixel ran until he couldn't run anymore. Techno was already passed out and almost in a coma from malnourishment and maltreatment, so he barely felt it when Hypixel (gritting his teeth) burned the brand off and then quickly used the healing potion he stole, then scraped the skin around his own and bandaged it (he's only stolen one, and he used it for the boy).

Techno spent the next years being raised by Hypixel. He truly considers the man his dad just as much as Hypixel calls him his son.

Hypixel was a wandering adventurer guy who ran away from a neglectful home as a kid and became pretty good at fighting and tracking, and stuff like that, while being a homeless hobo, though he is a good guy and all, he's helped people anonymously before and shit bc he's like that.

Think wandering secretly chaotic good ranger-ninja guy lmao. Your average 'normal wanderer but cracked'. He passed a lot of that to his son....

Selectively mute little Techno's first word he ever said to Hypixel, not long after an incident where Hypixel freely calls the boy *his* boy, was '.....Da?' one day after waking up.

>:D

adding more siblings bc why not.

- They find Grian soon after, having been abandoned a year before on the streets. Hypixel conviced the little red-winged avian to let him get close to help with a bruised arm and well.... yeah. Grian is three years older than Tech. - They find Squid, same age as Techno, digging around in the trash and... yeah. Hypixel has twins now.

- and Hannah, older than the twins but younger than Grian... uh. Hypixel may have intervened in some shit parents trying to sell their kid to traffickers.

From his years of running about on his own and gaining common sense Hypixel is aware how to deal with little guys and is good with kids, even traumatized ones, since former street kid stuff. He's super gentle but will enable their chaos.

He will not let him accompany him on his 'imma go ambush some slave traders' detours but spars with sword demons Techno and Grian until the little dudes can literally beat him, they be naturals (and Squid and Hannah ain't half bad either).

He enables Squid's potato obsession.

He does not bat an eye when Techno gets chaos and fire magic, Grian gets wind and Watcher magic, Squid gets water and a bit of storm magic, and Hannah gets plant magic. Elementals are not that uncommon in the servers. Hypixel himself has lightning and storm.

He teaches them how to make rockets and TnT and how to fite a titan ravager and stuff. He is that papa. But he'll also comfort them after their nightmares and let them hide under his cloak and calm their panic attacks very well. He will let them run around and hide from him in some obscure hiding spot in the bushes but the minute they conk out in same hiding spot... well, they wake up in the current den all tucked in and stuff.

They all call him dad.

Also did i mention that Hypixel, known on the streets as the Storm or just Storm, is a younger half-brother of Herobrine and Steve? yeah he's the wayward one and neither of the older two were around much as kids and Hype's caretakers were not good, so kid ran away.

He is an Admin as well. The Council of Admins has him labelled as THAT ONE.

By now, he's just keeping 'hidden' (not hellbent on it nowadays, just dodging but not running) for the pure fun of it, and according to the kids, watching Herobrine crash out after Hype uses enough power for the older Stormblood to sense it and show up, but Hypixel gets out of the server, is very funny.

HB and Steve don't know that the infamous 'Storm'  and the 'Stormlings' is their missing little brother and the four feral gremlins he took in. When the kids got older, Hypixel let them join his little.... eh, attacking traffickers, doing stuff to bad gangs, getting dragon hunters, exposing bad admins, that sort of stuff,

And they have got the nicknames the Watcher (Grian, he still half-Watcher here, but the Watchers aren't evil and one of them is Grian's bio father), the Kraken (Squid), the Blade (Techno) and the Thorn (Hannah).

All the kids also got Storm amulets so they get a bit of storm magic as well.

My blog is officially two years old as of Sep. 27th!! Happy second anniversary I guess?
