Never Meant to Be

P. 4

Tommy

Dream had left to give me some alone time. I was glad for this since I really needed it. I didn't know who I could trust anymore, I needed someone to help me get my discs back and to help me get revenge on L'manburg in general.

I never really mentioned the discs to Tubbo because it would seem like I'm selfish, but it doesn't really matter now. Does it?

That's besides the point. For me now, it was time to visit an old friend.

I trudged through the snow, my footsteps feeling heavier each step I take. I was freezing since I didn't have any other clothes besides a ripped outfit.

Too much time had passed when I finally saw a house in the distance. I slightly ran to seek the shelter. I could see a figure, however. A figure of a man. With pig ears weirdly enough.

The journey to his house passed so slow but after I saw Technoblade, it seemed like time had sped itself up for me to talk to him. Before I knew it,  his tall figure was intimidating me a few feet in front of me.

"Tommy."

"Uhh, hi Technoblade."

"What are you doing here?"

"Can I live here?"

He looked at me weird. We both know that I avoided the question and with a slight grunt, he walked back to his house. I didn't know if he was getting something for me or if he declined my question. However, to my surprise, he turned around and asked, "you coming?"

I never really expected Techno to let me in his house this easily. I looked through his chests one by one, seeing stacks and stacks of loot.

"Tommy- what are you doing, stop," I heard Technoblade say. "You still didn't answer my question by the way, what are you doing here?"

"Well, I kind of need help.."

"What kind of help? The violence kind? The killing kind? The revenge kind? I don't know, you gotta be more specific Tommy."

"Well, I guess the revenge kind."

"With who? Me? Dream? Tommy, is it too much to ask for you to be specific?"

I rolled my eyes. "I guess with L'manburg as a whole. I need my discs back from Tubbo and Skeppy, I think he has it. Also I think Tubbo too, he never regretted exiling me and I, I kind of hate him for that. We were supposed to be best friends, and I guess that he cares more about government than me."

"I lost you at best friends. But yea, I'll help you. But on one condition."

Of course. Technoblade and his favors.

"I need you to help me get my weapons back from them if I help you get your discs back."

"Alright, deal."

"That was easier than I thought, but okay."

The next few days were spent getting armor and weapons. We were planning on getting revenge on L'manburg in general since they hurt us both in our own ways. I really liked living with Technoblade, he acted like my older brother. He helped me in the nether to get netherite and he also provided me with food and valuables. He made me feel better about myself and soon enough, with him providing me clothes, I was almost who I was before. I looked the part, but my mindset was definitely different from when I lived in L'manburg.
