----

As dream held the sobbing child his mind wandered. Dream knew that he was unfit to care for the child. Hell it was his fault that Tommy was like this to begin with. Well as far as he knew it was his fault. Now that he had seen Tommy almost take his life Dream noticed somethings, somethings that should have been red flags.

Looking back Dream remembered how Tommy hesitated before shooting him in the duel, how he seemed to stay under the water longer than the others when they fled the explosions, how he recklessly walked along the walls of L'manburg before they had been torn down. Had Tommy always felt this way?

Dream was conflicted... Tommy was, or used, to be part of L'manburg. So why did Dream care?

"He's just a kid..." Was all dream could mutter.

Dream, in his rate for war, forgot that his opponent was just a scared kid dragged into this against his will. Dream decided then and there that he wanted to fix this. Dream did not want to kill the children who had come here to have fun, to enjoy their lives!

Dream turned his head hearing the sound of someone coming through the Nether portal.

Back in the over world:

Ghostbur watched as Dream raced through the portal in a panicked frenzy. But Ghostbur could not bring himself to go through the portal. He did not want to risk going through and seeing that HIS baby brother had died. He did not want to see that the child he practically raised was dead. Ghostbur couldn't handle the thought..

So he screamed.

He screamed and screamed and SCREAMED. He was angry- no, he was furious. HIS BABY BROTHER HAD GIVEN EVERYTHING AND NOW HE MIGHT BE DEAD. HIS BABY BROTHER MIGHT BE DEAD AND IF HE WASN'T THERE NO ONE WOULD KNOW!

Memories flashed in Ghostburs head. Loud noise filled his ears. He heard screams, apologies, crying. He remembered betrayal, the insanity he had let himself fall prey to, he remembered his final thoughts as he was stabbed.

"I need to protect tommy" is what he remembered. Ghostbur- scratch that- Wilbur sat near the portals entrance, tears streaming down his face. He didn't protect Tommy then, but he could do it now.

He would do it now.

Every person in L'manburg felt a shiver run down their spines. A person long thought to be dead had just woken up, and he was not happy.
