"Your front door was left open."

You and the other boys simply stared back at the newcomer, who rested against the wall. You were confused, and even appalled by his appearance.

He had long pink hair, wearing a pig's mask to cover the top half of his face, included with tusks and tiny ears. He wore a red cape, and a small but stunning crown.

Who was this man?

Before you could ask, Wilbur spoke the answer.

"Technoblade."

"Yeah, that's me."

Wilbur took a step forward, also a bit skeptical, towards Techno.

"What are you even doing here? Don't you have a house that's miles away from here?"

"Yeah I do, but that doesn't mean I don't travel. Word spreads fast around here about anything, so of course I heard about the whole.. Schlatt thing."

You look away, not wishing to be reminded of Schlatt. Sure, he treated you and Tubbo rather nicely... but he still exiled your friends.

You can't trust him.

Wilbur raises a brow.

"Why are you here?"

Techno doesn't say anything at first, but decides to stand tall and walk over to Wilbur.

"Oh I don't know, simply because I'm bored? No, no.. I just want to help."

"Help?"

Tommy looks enraged, as well as defensive towards Techno. Techno turns to him, as Tommy continues.

"How can we trust you? How do we not know you're on Schlatt's side, ordered to kill us? We know how you are, you bitch."

"Tommy-"

You tried to calm Tommy down, but Techno responds.

"You think I'd be on the side of the government?"

Tommy raises a brow, as well as shield you.

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Tommy, I hate the government. It's all about wanting power. You're lucky I'm wanting to help your side, even when the president's sidekicks are right next to you."

You felt threatened by this, and so did Tubbo. Tommy, however.. something snapped in him that made him lash out.

"DON'T YOU DARE LAY A FINGER ON MY BEST FRIENDS!"

Wilbur jolted at the sudden temper, and he tried to calm Tommy down.

"Woah woah, Tommy chill-"

"IF YOU HURT THEM, EVEN IF JUST A SCRATCH, I WILL NOT HESITATE TO FUCKING KILL YO-"
