The Island

Chapter 25

**Trigger warning, character death, killing, fluff(?)

**I will also not be marking where this will happen, I don't want to ruin the surprise (:

"It's a long story. But we should probably get going, it is starting soon." Tubbo told everyone.

"Ya, let's get going," Tommy said as he looked at Tubbo.

They left shortly to ensure that they weren't late for Denny's meeting. They all wanted some sort of explanation. Meanwhile, Sapnap took Denny to Med bay so she could tell Dream about the island meeting she called herself. Once Sapnap got there his mind started to race.

"Hey Sapnap?" Dream said, confused.

"Oh hey Dream. Um I, no Denny has something to tell you." Sapnap whispered.

"Did Denny learn new words?" Dream asked, hearing what Sapnap had said.

"Sorta like that," Sapnap answered as he put Denny on the chair next to the bed Dream was sitting on.

"Okay," Dream said, turning to Denny. "Denny what words did you learn with Sapnap?" Dream asked.

Denny looked at Sapnap for comfort, Sapnap gave her a little nod. She turned to Dream and started to speak,

"I um, I called an island meeting," Denny stopped briefly to look up at Dream. She was met with confused green eyes, she looked away and continued. "And I am going to um, tell everyone why I can talk and probably do things that a lot of you can't because you don't remember learning it," Denny spoke more softly. Sapnap's mind was still racing.

"I need to go to the bathroom. I will be right back." Sapnap told Denny and Dream as he left, trying to keep his voice calm.

Sapnap reached the bathroom and went straight to the sink. He turned on the tap and splashed some cold water on his face to try and calm himself down. His mind was still racing and he knew exactly why.

"This wasn't supposed to happen until tonight. I thought I had the schedule right this time." Sapnap said while making eye contact with himself in the mirror in front of him. He looked like a mess.

"You alright?" Dream asked, making Sapnap jump.

"Ya, I am all good. When did you get in here?" Sapnap asked now looking at Dream from the mirror.

"While I heard enough to ask what you need a schedule for," Dream replied.

"Well, you shouldn't have heard that." Sapnap snapped. It was getting worse by the second.

"Sorry, I just wanted to make sure you were okay, you're such a prick sometimes," Dream added before turning to leave. The door was just about to close when Dream rushed back into the bathroom.

Denny was waiting for Sapnap and Dream in the room where they first found Dream. Sapnap had been gone for at least fifteen minutes and Dream was gone for about ten minutes. Denny was instructed by Dream to stay here while he tries to find out what is wrong with Sapnap.

"What is taking them so long?" Denny wondered aloud. "If they aren't back or I haven't heard anything from them in five minutes then I am going to my island meeting. Everyone deserves an explanation and if I have to I will tell those two later." Denny told herself.

After 5 minutes of waiting around, she decided to leave. She couldn't wait any longer. She will explain it to them later. But little did she know that she won't be the only one explaining things at this island meeting.

After everyone left Eret did the one thing that he needed to do before the meeting. He made sure everyone was gone and busy with things before he opened up the quarantine bunker. Schlatt was tied to the wall asleep. That was ideal for what Eret was about to do. Eret covered Schlatt's mouth with cloth and untied him from where he was. Then Eret took him to the shoreline where his boat was. Schlatt didn't resist anything, nor did he try to escape in any way. Mostly because he had a cloth over his mouth and Eret was towering over him.

"Any last words?" Eret asked as he took the cloth away from Schlatt's mouth.

"You were a nice person Eret," Schlatt told Eret as he closed his eyes. "I am sorry for killing Niki and George. The power got to my head. Now please get this over with. Take me to hell." Schlatt finished as a single tear rolled down his cheek.

"I am sorry for what I am about to do, even though you shouldn't get a sorry," Eret said as he untied Schlatt's hands.

"Goodbye, I wouldn't rather anyone else do this to me. You were a good friend." Schlatt said as he grabbed Eret and pulled him into a hug as soon as his hands were untied.

"I am sorry," Eret said as tears started falling down his face.

"No, don't cry. I only have a couple of hours until I am contagious. Please, you need to get my body on the boat and far enough away so you are safe." Schlatt said as he wiped the tears from Eret's cheek.

"I know. I will miss the Schlatt I knew." Eret laughed a bit.

"The Schlatt before he killed and hurt my friends," Schlatt added handing Eret a small knife.

"I will make this as quick as possible," Eret told Schlatt.

"I know you will, goodbye my love," Schlatt said as Eret stabbed him in the heart.

Schlatt died immediately. Eret put Schlatt's body in his boat and pushed it out to sea. After 15 minutes the alarm Schlatt gave Eret went off. His boat was far enough out that they were safe. Eret had just saved everyone on the island, or so he thought.

**Authors note

I don't really ship them, but I needed to have someone with Schlatt to spice up the story. That is about as much of them together you will see (:

Please remember you are loved and you will always be loved. Drink and eat some water the next chance you get, please.
