technoblade }{ the box

{ Techno's POV }

We traveled all the way back to the community portal and into the hub. I helped Tommy stay hidden as we rushed to the house, back to safety. I glanced behind my shoulder and saw Dream's tall figure in the woods. I pushed Tommy into the house, "I don't wanna alarm you but Dream's near us."

"Oh well that's good, me and Dream are friends." Tommy smiled.

"Are you?" I asked, sighing.

He paused, "Are we?"

I leaned against the wall behind me, "Aren't you hiding from him?"

"Well, yeah." Tommy said, quietly.

I took Tommy outside, into the snow so we could look for a wolf, since I was making a hound army. We searched the hills and Tommy finally built the strength up to go to Logsted. We found a forest near the ruins and Tommy walked off as I was chopping a tree down. I could hear him hyperventilating and it freaked me out. I looked around for him, yelling, "Tommy!? Tommy, where did you go!?"

I knew he was prone to having panic attacks, so I was worried that I lost him. I rushed around, looking for Tommy. I saw him in the plains, in front of Logsted, and I ran to his side. He was breathing heavily and quickly, scared of something he didn't know. I stood in front of him, "Tommy, I need you to stop freaking out."

Tommy turned around, "I'm going home, Technoblade, I can't do this."

I nodded, "Alright. Hey, uh, Dream is over there."

"Oh! Maybe I can talk to him!" he said, his face lighting up.

"Don't you not wanna see him?"

"Well, I wanna see him but I also have to hide from him."

I crossed my arms, "Tommy, you're giving me very contradicting statements here."

Tommy started walking off on his own, so I followed him. We got to the village near the house when I heard the crunch of snow behind me. I quickly glanced back and saw Dream's bright mask hiding in a shadow. I grabbed Tommy's hand and rushed forward, to the house. We ran up the steps and I opened the door. Tommy ran inside and tilted his head, "Should I say hello or-"

I cut him off, "Is he your friend or is he trying to kill you?"

"Well he's trying to kill me but we're buddies."

I groaned, "So all of the above!? He's your friend but he's trying to kill you!?"

"Yeah." Tommy stated. Dream's manipulation had made Tommy insecure and confused. It was hard to see. My little brother getting hunted by a literal god.

Tommy walked outside, onto the balcony, "Is he here?"

"Tommy, get in the house!! Hide!" I said, urgently.

I opened the cardboard box in the corner and Tommy crawled in. You could see part of his eye if you stood in a certain position, but otherwise it was ok. He opened the box and casually leaned back. I clenched my jaw, "Tommy, he's literally outside! If he finds you, it's on you!"

He closed the box completely, leaving only a crack to see out of. I looked out the window and saw Dream killing a group of zombies in the snow. He stuffed his sword behind him and marched up the wooden steps, opening the door. He walked in, stomping snow all over my floor. I perked up, "Hey, I saw you were having trouble with some zombies out there."

Dream nodded, "Yeah, they were being quite rude. I've actually never been here."

I tried to act like I didn't absolutely hate him, "Make yourself at home!"
