Finding Yourself (Ghostinnit story)

Chapter 22: Hatred

Ghostinnit was so filled with hate, that everything he touched melted from his lava body. It was to the point that they had to use netherite swords to train, so he doesn't burn anything else. He was so angry that the floor would even burn under him as well.

"Tommy, please calm down. You're burning the floor underneath you again." Dream said, blocking Ghostinnit's sword.

"I'm sorry Dream. It's just...why would they leave me for dead. I'm their family! I died to escape a pain that they could've helped prevent. They left me when I needed them the most! If they're gonna leave me for dead, I might as well teach them a lesson." Ghostinnit said, who's hits were getting more powerful with every swing.

He was learning so much and was getting stronger by every hour that passed by. Dream knew he had left the compass at his base and knew that there is a chance that someone has already found it. Hopefully they don't come here at all. If they did, Dream would have to keep Ghostinnit from being found or he would make his presence known. Ghostinnit burned, wanting revenge. He wanted to make his "friends" pay for what they have done to him. They didn't come to any party he had thrown or even wish him a Merry Christmas. That's why he hated them.

Dream got knocked down to the ground from Ghostinnit. He looked back up at him and smiled. He was getting stronger, to the point he was defeating Dream. Making Ghostinnit the second most powerful person on the server. He stood above him and celebrated yet another win, before helping Dream back up. Even though he was training, he didn't want to hurt Dream at all.

"I'm sorry if I hurt you Dream. You told me to knock you down to the ground so I did." he said putting his sword away.

"It's alright Tommy, you didn't hurt me. But you better be careful, you're starting to get stronger than me."

"Is that a bad thing?"

"No, it's a good thing. Just remember not to go after me. I mean I am your friend. I was there when no one else was there."

Ghostinnit looked down at the ground and knew he was right. Dream was there for his Beach party, but...not for Christmas. He was probably busy, he does own the server after all. Everyone else didn't, they could've at least said hi, but they didn't. Tubbo didn't even see him at all for his exile.

A burning hatred grew in Ghostinnit. This hatred made him hate everyone, except Dream. Dream was always there for him when he needed it. Even alone in exile, Dream would be there to take care of him. He didn't care for anyone else at all. If they weren't gonna be there for him, then he would just have to teach them. If they were gonna hurt him, he would hurt them.

Dream picked up his axe and started to sharpen it. He sat on a chair in the front row of the arena. While he sharpened his axe, Ghostinnit cleaned up the arena where they fought. There were wood chips everywhere from the shields that broke. Some of the chips turned into ash, from being set on fire. His lava hands burned the ground beneath him. It didn't hurt, but it did take some of the loneliness away. Not all of it went away though. He knew why he wanted it away and wished he could have it gone forever. A sad feeling came over him, he wanted to have this pain go away.

He looked up at Dream, who was putting the axe back into his inventory. Once the chips were all picked up, he stood up and went over to Dream. Ghostinnit wanted to ask if the hunters were coming for them at all.

"Dream, the people in the smp, are they gonna come for us?" he asked.

"Who knows, I left a compass that leads to this mansion. There might be a chance that they have found it already. Also I know for a fact that they are looking for you too. Don't worry Tommy, if they do find you, I want you to hide and keep the rest to me. No matter what happens to me, I want you to be safe." Dream said.

"No, I'm not gonna leave you ever Dream. What happens if they kill you! You're the only one I have left! If you die, I'll have no one." Ghostinnit said, tears falling down his face.

The water tears that went down his face, burned him. Water burned and hurt him. He discovered this when they were going to this base, he fell into water and it hurt him so bad. His lava body turned hard and he could barely move. His body when he touched water turned into obsidian. Dream immediately helped him when he was in that river. He made sure to protect Ghostinnit every time he had come intact with water. When he saw the tears turning him into obsidian once again, he grabbed a rag and started to wipe them off as quickly as he could.

"Hey hey hey, don't cry. I won't ever leave you, I promise." Dream said.

Ghostinnit hugged Dream worried that something would happen to him. Dream had on fire resistance armor, so he knew he was ok. Dream hugged him back and patted the fire away on his head. The fire didn't go away of course, but it helped calm Ghostinnit down. He calmed down a little, while Dream comforted him until he stopped crying.

"If they ever hurt you Dream, I will be there to protect you." Ghostinnit said.

"I know you will and I'll be there to protect you as well."
