{ christmas. }

It was Christmas Day. I woke up and walked to the second floor of Techno's base. I sat down in front of Edward, staring into his deep purple eyes. Techno walked in behind me. I looked up at him, "Die."

Techno nodded, "Oh." and left the room.

I stood up and walked outside, into the snow. I rushed through the land and into the nether portal, entering the steaming hot world. Sweat droplets appeared on my forehead after three seconds of walking around. HBomb passed by me and handed me something. I unwrapped it and stared at it. It was a music disk... but it was not just that. It was Pigstep. Pigstep, if you don't know, is probably the most valuable disk you could get. I slightly nodded at HBomb, thanking him. He left, quickly, not wanting to be seen with me.

I got some nether supplies and went back to the snowy Overworld. Techno gave me a turtle shell helmet and the 'wait' disk. Both things were extremely useful. Techno took me back to L'manberg so that he could get his weapons back.

We found Tubbo, Ranboo, and Connor, and we went to talk to them. It was a dangerous way to approach it but it was the only way. Tubbo stared at me for a second, then shook his head, "Wait... I'm so confused. You're alive?"

I sighed, "Hello, Tubbo. Where've you been?"

"Here...?" he replied, weirdly.

"You exiled me." I stated, crossing my arms.

Techno huffed, "Yeah, remember when you exiled Tommy?"

Tubbo looked around, "What's going on here?"

"I want my stuff back." Techno said.

"Tommy, you're with Technoblade?" Tubbo asked, urgently.

I nodded, "Yeah, I am... because you exiled me, Tubbo. You've left me with absolutely no choice. And, you know what? He's ok, even after all the shit he did to me. You didn't come visit me once, so don't try to guilt trip me. You also didn't come to my party!"

"I wasn't invited!"

I raised my voice, "Don't give me this shit!! Didn't you try to execute Techno?"

"Uh... maybe."

"What the fuck!? You're a monster, what the hell is wrong with you!?" I yelled, leaning forward.

Eret was watching from afar. As the king, he wanted to know what was happening. Techno negotiated with Tubbo about the stolen weapons. He got his pickaxe and his crossbow back, so he thought it was time to leave. Techno and I rushed through the land, back to the portal.

"He didn't even care that I'm ok. That was my best friend, man." I said, quietly.

"I mean, he did exile you. I'm starting to think, maybe I'm going too far, but the whole exile thing, not visiting you, leaving you to die in some far away place, I'm starting to think that he doesn't care for you as much as you care for him. I'm just telling you what I've found out from the few weeks of watching you talk about him." Techno ranted, shrugging.

"Is Tubbo not a good guy?" I asked, my voice breaking.

"He's the worst, he's a government official." Techno stated.

"Let's just go home... We've got what we wanted." I said.

We made it to the portal but we were stopped. Dream was standing in front of us. I whispered to techno, "Shields up."

We slowly walked closer to him. I clenched my fists, "Hi, Dream."

"Hello." Dream replied, coldly.

Techno stood tall, "How's it going?"

"If I remember correctly, you're not supposed to be here, Tommy." Dream stated, ignoring Techno's question.

I stared at Techno, trying to steady my breath. He glanced down to me and whispered through his teeth, "Don't be scared."

Dream continued, "Tommy, I got one of your disks back."

"What!?" I said, the tone of my voice changing.

"I got it from Skeppy."

"Don't fuck with me. Do you actually have my disk?" I asked, seriously.

"I do, I have one of them."

I paused and looked at Techno, "Techno, Tubbo has the other one. When I get both disks, basically every problem here stops. As you said, I'm Mr. Problem."

I came to a painful realization, "Dream, you screwed me over... you manipulated me."

Dream tilted his head, "Tommy, I was the only one who visited you, I was your only friend."

"You were terrible!"

"But you betrayed me! You came here, you're not supposed to be here. You left, and now you're here... and you're causing problems."

"I came here to get my disks back! I'm the only one who stands up to you! And you know what, Dream? I think you're scared of me."

Dream stood his ground, "Alright, Tommy. Listen, you're gonna come with me... or I'm gonna burn your disk."

Techno moved in front of me, holding his shield up, "Well, that's gonna be a bit of a problem, Dream... because this guy's with me."

I smirked, waiting for Dream's reply. He lifted an eyebrow, "Hmm. Are you sure, Techno?"

"I am sure. We're partners, and I can't have you taking him away before I complete my objectives. Unless, of course... you call in that favor." Techno said, weirdly.

I stepped away from Techno, "What favor?"

"Don't ask questions, Tommy." Techno stated.

Dream moved away from the portal, "I think I'll keep that favor. You live for now, Tommy."

I huffed, "Get away. Get away from us, and don't you ever come back."

"Alright, alright." Dream said.

"Go fuck yourself." I said, walking through the portal and entering the nether once again. Techno was behind me. I glanced back, "Techno... thank you."

We made it back to the base and walked inside. Techno placed his precious rocket launcher on a table in the corner and then went to his chests, putting things away. I stood in front of the rocket launcher, reaching out to it. I placed my hand on top of some of the gears, feeling the rusted cold metal. I slowly looked to Techno, "Did you kill Tubbo with this?"

"Uh... yeah. I wanna go back to L'manberg so I can feed my wolves." Techno replied.

I nodded, "Alright, be careful."

Techno left to go back to L'manberg. I walked outside and sat on the front steps, watching the sun go down. The sky lit up with purple and yellow colors, making the snow shine a light pink. I sighed to myself, twiddling my fingers, "I really hope I'm doing the right thing."
