The Island

Chapter 11

**Trigger warning, blood

"I would do that but what about Niki? I think she would deserve to sleep protected." Bad said.

"Your right." Wilbur said.

"I will make a proposal. Tell me if you guys agree." Techno asked.

"Okay bet." Tommy said.

"Niki gets to pick two of us to sleep in the den we made. We aren't going to include Dream, he looks pretty comfy. The ones she doesn't pick get to sleep in the trees or by the fire." Techno suggested.

"Seems fair." Wilbur agreed.

"Fine by me." Tommy said.

"Ya that seems fair." Bad answered.

"Okay Niki. Pick." Techno said.

"Um okay. I pick..." Niki said.

They waited for about 5 minutes. She was going through the pros and cons. She was trying to decide who she felt comfortable with.

"Okay I have made my pick. Wilbur, you are going to sleep in the den with me." Niki started.

"I knew it." Wilbur said as he walked towards the den.

"Tommy you are also going to sleep in the den with Wilbur and I. Only because you are hurt." Niki finished.

"Okay then. Bad lets find a place to sleep." Techno said as he walked towards the fire.

"Bye Niki! Bye Wilbur! Bye Tommy! Have a nice sleep." Bad said as he followed Techno.

Techno and Bad found a place to sleep by the fire. Soon their breaths became shallow and even like Dream's. Wilbur, Niki and Tommy were trying to get comfortable in the little den. Wilbur was going to sleep in the middle because he was the closest with Niki. They finally drifted into a nice, long sleep.

Back at L'manburg Shlatt was having everyone tear down the walls. He didn't care that Niki and Bad were missing. He was destroying everything. Without Dream's power stopping him he was all powerful. Everyone was either scared of him or was on his side.

The next morning everyone woke up around the same time. Wilbur and Tommy emerged from the den. Techno and Bad had been starting the fire. Dream was still in the same position as they had left him. Curled up in a ball, his breaths were deep and even.

"We don't want to wake Dream so be quiet." Techno whispered as Wilbur and Tommy joined them by the fire.

"I woke up and he was still in that position. It is insane how he stayed like that all night." Bad said as he added a small log to the fire.

"I am surprised." Wilbur said as he stretched.

"I'm not. He fell asleep pretty quick last night." Tommy said as he threw a leaf into the fire.

"Is Dream still sleeping?" Niki said as he rubbed her eyes.

"Good morning Niki, and yes he is still sleeping." Wilbur said as Niki sat down beside him.

"Please be quiet, I don't want to wake up Dream." Techno shushed them.

"Sorry." Niki whispered.

"He has been like that since Techno and I woke up." Bad said.

"Really? That's kind of worrying. I am gonna check on him really quick." Niki said as she got up.

"Please try to not wake him up." Techno warned.

"I will try my best." Niki said as she knelt down beside Dream.

**Blood warning

Niki was knelt beside Dream. His breaths were deep and even. He was curled in a ball. His arms were wrapped around his stomach. His knees were up by his chests. His head was resting on his knees. Niki tried to move one of Dream's arms so she could check his wound. When she touched his arm it felt like it was on fire. She moved it over eventually. It revealed a pool of blood gathering under where he was lying. The front of his white shirt was completely dyed red with blood.

"Dream?" Niki said as she lightly shook him.

"I said don't wake him up." Techno said getting up from where he was sitting.

"He needs to wake up. Come look." Niki said shaking Dream a little harder.

"HEY! DON'T WAKE HIM UP!" Techno yelled running over Niki and Dream.

"I need to look!" Niki said pointing to the pool of blood under Dream.

"DREAM WAKE UP!" Techno screamed as he violently shook Dream.

**Done (:

"I need to get him to get him to Med bay. But I don't know how." Niki said looking around.

"How far is it." Techno said as he started to pick up Dream.

"At least a 30 minute walk." Niki said looking at the sky.

"Then let's make it a 15 minute run." Techno said as he put Dream around his front.

"Techno what are you doing? You will most likely be killed." Wilbur said going over to them.

"I know but Dream needs to survive. This is his island not mine. I don't belong here." Techno said.

"That's not true Techno. You were there and gave us hope when we thought there was none. You were the one that got this started." Bad said as he stood up.

"It doesn't matter if you left. This is your home." Tommy said, trying to stand up. Bad ran over and helped him.

"Thanks guys, but we need to get Dream into Med bay one way or another." Techno said.

"Okay good luck. I will be here with Tommy. We will keep making everything. I will hide everything 100x better now." Wilbur said as he half hugged Techno. It was kind of hard with Dream on Techno's front.

"Good luck everyone." Tommy said as they were leaving.
