To be a family

The end of a hero

Tommy watches as Dream puts the TNT into the hole. Tubbo stood beside him, horrified.

"Is this what he made you do in exile?" Tubbos whisper was barely audible. Tommy did not answer though. He was watching the hole in a dazed state, his hand rubbing over the dagger he had managed to hide from the Green man. He finally looked away when Dream took a step forward. Tommy moved in front of Tubbo, shielding him from the villain. Dream laughed at the boy's action.

"I won't need to hurt him if you listen closely." The way Dream said that sent chills down Tommys spine. "You're both going to follow me, and don't try anything."

It was only once they reached Dream's base when Tommy realized they were not going to get out alive, or at least one of them would not. It must have been the way Dream kept looking back at them, or the way he held his Axe. Tommy kept Tubbo behind him just in case. The trip down the elevator was long. It was awkward as well. Tommy and Tubbo stood on the right side, trying to keep as far from the masked man as possible. Dream stood on the left, playing with the axe. Although they could not see his face, Tommy was sure he was smirking. Soon enough the elevator stopped, and the doors opened to a giant room.

Framed on both sides of a nether portal, were Cat and Mellohi.

Tommy stood, looking at the discs before noticing the side hall. He walked towards it, completely forgetting about Tubbo. It was only when he turned around that he remembered Dream's threat.

"I told you I would kill him." Dream has his axe to Tubbos throat. Tommy freezes. Dream was going to kill Tubbo, no matter what Tommy did. Unless...

"Tubbos a pawn, you on the other hand," Dream moves the axe closer to Tubbos throat, drawing blood. "You're fun."

Tommy steps forward but stops when Dream threatens to finish the job.

"I'm going to kill Tubbo, then put you in Pandoras Vault." Dream laughs. "You're going to be stuck in there for as long as I want."

Tommy wants to vomit. Dream was likely to keep him in Pandora until he broke, that or whenever Dream got bored. If Tommy were to save L'Manburg -save Tubbo- he would need to act fast.

"If you kill Tubbo." Tommy pulls out the dagger he had hidden. "This will go through my heart."

Tommy would not do it, but Dream did not know that. If Dream were to kill Tubbo, Tommy would injure himself in a severe way. Take out an eye or two. Then Dream would not have fun with him anymore.

Nevertheless, Dream lowered the axe. Tommy cringed at the small line that was on the bee lover's neck.

"Let Tubbo go." Dream did not move, Tubbo still locked in his hold. Tommy put the dagger directly over where his heart was. Dream let Tubbo go. Tubbo ran over to where Tommy was.

"Now listen to me, Dream." Tommy pulled Tubbo behind him. The older yelped as he stumbled forward. Tommy was too focused on Dream to notice though. "You're going to let us go and leave us alone."

Dream did not move. They were still for a minute before Dream let out a crazed laugh.

"In that case," Dream wheezed. "You may as well both die!"

Tommy did not notice anyone come from behind them before a blade was sticking through his stomach. He could see the blood starting to spread on his normally white T-Shirt. The blade was pulled out, and Tommy fell without its support. Strong arms caught him before he could fall though. Tommy looked up at the person who caught him and was met with Crimson eyes. Technoblade was the one who would kill him. Tommy felt betrayal, Techno was his big brother Damnit!

"Ive got you Theseus," Technoblade sounded sorry, that prick. "you can rest now."

Tommy used what little strength he had to push Techno away, he failed.
