Power

Nobody's POV

Tommy was just a kid who didn't know his place in the world. A kid who threw around playful insults and was reckless. A kid who didn't really know to whom or where he belonged. A kid who wasn't sure how to cope with the world he had been put in. A kid who swung a sword at anything that moved. A kid with no power. A kid with no wisdom or skill.

Just a powerless, annoying child.

At least that's what everyone thought.

No one knew what was underneath the surface. No one realized just how much raw power Tommy contained. No one knew that he could kill them all with a snap of his fingers.

No one knew he was a god, except Tommy himself of course.

Ever since Tommy was very young the server bestowed him the title of a god secretly. Tommy was the god of war and death. The most powerful god alive. At the mere age of 16 he could already move mountains and drain oceans. His power was uncontainable.

But somehow Tommy contained it. Tommy wanted to live somewhat of a normal life. He wanted to have friends and fight for the people he cared about. The problem was that every time he thought he found someone, the world shifted and the young god was left alone once again.

However, this time.... this time it had gone too far...

and Tommy was too tired...

... and so very, very angry

Tommy sat atop the obsidian grid in the sky, dangling his legs over the edge. He watched as his home, his people, everything he had ever give a damn about was blown to pieces. He was so sick of getting everything taken away from him, letting it get taken from him. He was in a mental battle. A part of him wanted to truly take the form he had been bestowed so very long ago, but another part was still fighting it. Tommy knew of his power, but he knew if he revealed himself he would never be able to slip back into the personality he had so carefully built for himself.

So instead, Tommy sat and watched as the TNT rained down.

He suddenly heard footsteps behind him, he didn't bother looking as he already knew who it was.

"Hello, Tommy.... are you enjoying the view?"

Tommy's hands clenched into fists as he stood and turned to his unwelcome intruder. He could practically see the grin on his face through his mask.

He thinks he's so powerful, he thinks he has everyone under his thumb, Tommy thought.

Tommy spoke, "what do you want, Dream?"

"Oh nothing, I just wanted to make sure you understood. Look, Tommy, we blew it up, and you can't do anything about it."

The others in the battle had finally given up and instead climbed on top of the grid to watch this unfold. They felt a bit of sorrow for the boy knowing how helpless he was.

Tommy didn't respond and instead turned and began to walk away from the ignorant tyrant. Dream wasn't done with the conversation. He wanted a reaction out of the boy. He wanted everyone to see his weaknesses exploited.

Dream yelled, "You stupid, weak child!"

Tommy froze, he turned back to Dream. His voice was deadly as he spoke, "Be careful, Dream..."

Everyone went silent, surprised by the boy's threat. Dream even seemed caught by surprise. Techno was also watching his brother, a look of concern on his face.

He knew Tommy was in for it now.

Dream recovered quickly and let out a maniacal laugh. "Oh, Tommy! Surely you didn't just threaten me? I must be mishearing you! You have absolutely no power. You are weak, you could never stand a chance against me... or anyone here for that matter!"
