Warnings: Mentions of injury - Mentions of Blood -  Slight Swearing

[ Honestly, not the best chapter I've made, but I was inspired and I couldn't stop myself. We're close to some really dramatic stuff though, so be on the look out for that in the next few chapters >:D ]

The two fell silent as a they looked at one another, Tubbo muttering, "I... I don't know..." Tommy had and idea, saying in his mind, "Tubbo, If you can hear this. Say bees" The said boy gasped, looking to Tommy with excitement in his eyes, "Bees?! I love bees! Did you find any?" Tommy's face turned to one of horror, he didn't find bees, he found the invisible lake. "No. I didn't..." "There you two are!" The younger boys jumped, scared at the new found voice. Turning slightly, they recognized the half human half Piglin staring at them near the entrance of the forest. "Heyyyy" Tommy said, standing up and offering a hand to Tubbo, which he took and smiled awkwardly at the oldest in their family. "Hey? Hey!?" Technoblade ran over to the two children and pulled them back by their arms, "You two have been missing for half the day and all you can say is 'hey'!" Tubbo could feel Technoblade's emotions, not only the anger but weirdly enough guilt and desperation. "We're not hurt." Tommy said, glancing at Tubbo before saying, "And anyways, why do you care? You always adventured the woods when you were our age!" "Yeah, and I stopped after I-" Technoblade stopped himself. His brothers couldn't, no, shouldn't know. If they did Tommy would go find a way to prove him wrong or do it to himself. "I..." Technoblade took a deep breath and swiftly said, "I got Wilbur hurt, so I stopped going. I don't want that adventurous spirit to leave the both of you over a mistake." Technoblade said, mentally angry at himself for dancing around the truth. "Oh. That's sad! What happened?" Tubbo asked quietly, thinking, "Tommy, do you think he's lying to us...?" The two forgot about being dragged and the consequences they would face when they saw one of the men from the forest, or at least the one Tommy recognized dragging his brother away. Tommy glared at the man, seeing another leave and talk to the first. Tubbo was the first to speak after awhile of silence, "We're not in too much trouble... Right?" The pink haired boy turned to him slightly, pulling them out of the forest and near the house and replied, "Depends. Phil may do something bad, may not. I heard he wasn't having the greatest day." Technoblade smirked at the last part, it'd do the two good to make it up for worrying their father, who honestly wasn't going to punish them after finding out why they left.

Tommy and Tubbo had been doing work for their father all day to make him happy, scared he might keep them inside for way longer then they already do. The only problem was, as the two were working, Tubbo got distracted saying that someone was outside. No one was ever in the windows or by the door. "Tubbo are you going insane?" Tommy whispered, moving closer to his brother who only shook is head, "I swear to you! I think someone is after us! Maybe the people from the house invasion..." Tommy didn't want to worry his friend. Lying to him couldn't be that bad, right? "I think you're still scared of them. We have our family, most importantly Techno, to protect us. They're always on missions, so they have to be good at what they do!" Tubbo smiled at his friends energy, adding, "You're probably right. We both were pretty scared." Tommy and Tubbo laughed and went back to cleaning, unaware of the conversation happening only a few feet from them.

"I promise you, Phil. They were literally glowing." Technoblade had tried to tell his father what he saw, the two boys screams of pain that the forest consumed and the glowing figures that was his brothers. "It sounds like what happened to us-" Wilbur started, being cut off by a glare from Technoblade and a, "We never speak of that." "Oh come on. It was an accident! We're both fine!" Wilbur argued. He never got to fully figure out why that happened due to his supposed twin being truly scared of the of the whole incident entirely. "What if something happened thought? What if we were unable to see our brothers grow up." Technoblade's voice was low as he tried to knock since into Wilbur that they got lucky. "We don't even know what they saw." The pink haired man added, trying to get Wilbur to drop this conversation. "We could ask! They would tell us what happened, right?" The musician knew his brothers well. They'd always come to them for help, at least Tubbo would and Tommy didn't control that boy's actions. The two kept going back and forth, they're voices slowly rising in volume. "What's going on in there..." Tubbo asked, confused and a little scared by the sudden yelling. "I don't know.." Tommy barely said, moving closer to the living room and watching the mess unfold. Phil trying to stop both Technoblade and Wilbur from their yelling contest. The two had anger problems, Tubbo knew that. He remembered before Tommy was there to help him hearing the screams of the two and things get damaged. He never liked their yelling or how close Tommy was getting. Normally, the blond boy would remove them both from the situation, but it's like his body said no. Tubbo watched with horror as the two started to get violent, using weapons that they had on them to attack the other. "Move Tommy!" Tubbo screamed in his head, eventually moving closer and trying to pull the taller away. "We need to leave, let them cool down." Tubbo didn't care about getting in trouble, he felt an older brother protection to help and get Tommy away from the situation."What's the worst that could happen?" The question seemed to taunt Tubbo. Why was his brother like this? Tubbo stood in the boys way. "Tommy we have to get out of here before one of us gets hurt-."

Silence filled the air.

His scream.

Oh god can that boy scream.

 "Tubbo!? Tubbo!!? What did you do! Oh god this is bad."

"Tommy get him on the couch, Techno get the first aid kit, Wilbur get a damp rag."

"This is all my fault.."

"It's both our fault."

"It's not the worst injury, but it will require some stitching..."

"I can't believe you two!"

"Tommy calm down-"

"He'll be fine"

"What if he wasn't!"

"..."

"Exactly. It'd be your fault. You'd go to jail or some shit!"

"Hand me the bandages, and all three of you stop fighting. It was an accident and couldn't have been prevented."

"Wrong."
