TechnoBlade's POV:

"Ranboo, what the fuck are you doing here?" I question angrily, Ranboo doesn't seem fazed. I don't know if he's on L'manburgs' side or not.

"TechnoBlade, I don't agree with L'manburgs' ways. I think your right, the government should be destroyed," Ranboo says calmly, meeting my gaze.

"What are you saying, Ranboo?" I ask, taking a step closer towards the younger boy.

"I don't want to pick sides... but what I'm trying to say is that I'd be willing to help you if you need it," Ranboo says reluctantly, I stay silent for a second. Can I really trust him?

"How do I know I you won't betray me, Ranboo?" I reply, remembering Tommy.

"You'll just have to trust me," Ranboo shrugs. I let out a long sigh. I guess he's right, I can only hope he isn't another traitor. L'manburg seems to be filled with those.

"Are you sure you want to help me?" I ask. Ranboo gives me a firm nod, his mismatched green and red eyes meeting mine. I know I should feel triumphant, I have someone else on my team. Someone else who'll help destroy the government once and for all. But, I can't help but feel a twinge of sadness. It should be Tommy helping me...

I look up and see Ranboo, a hopeful expression on his face. I look the younger boy up and down, sizing him up. Ranboo gives me a funny look, I feel a small smile creep on my lips.

"Ready to destroy L'manburg, kid?"

Tubbo's POV:

I can feel the sobs rack her body as she collapses in my arms. I look up at Tommy in shock, y/n has never been one to break down like this. Why has she started crying all of a sudden? Is it because of the war tomorrow?

"Y/n?" I ask again, gently pushing her away from me. Her eyes are puffy and red, it tears my heart seeing her cry like this. "Y/n, tell me what's wrong?" I whisper. I see Tommy give me a look as he continues his speech with the crowd. Y/n opens her mouth to speak, but nothing comes out. She shakes her head slowly, tears still streaming down her face.

"Y/n it's ok, we're going to win the war. L'manburg will be ok-" I start softly but she cuts me off.

"This isn't about L'manburg, Tubbo! This is about Dream, he doesn't care about me!" Y/n sobs, looking up at me. She quickly buries her head back in my shoulder. Y/n's crying because of...Dream? I place my hand on the back of her head, after a minute she pulls away slowly.

"I'm nothing, Tubbo! I'm worthless..." Y/n trails off, as more tears swell in her eyes.

"Y/n that's the biggest piece of bullshit I've ever heard! I don't care what that Dream said, you are not worthless," I say angrily, how could Dream say that when he means so much to her? Y/n looks down, avoiding my gaze. I tilt her head up so she looks at me.

"Y/n, you listen to me, you are worth so much more than some discs, so much more. And if Dream can't see that... then he isn't worth it," I say, looking at y/n carefully. Why does Dream mean that much to her?

Y/n stays silent, after a couple of minutes she seems to finally compose herself. She pulls away from me and quickly wipes the dry tears off her cheek. I give her a reassuring smile, and she gives me a small smile in return. We both go back to where Tommy is still talking to everyone. As Tommy continues, I start to drift off into my thoughts.

My plan isn't ruined, I chuckle to myself lowly. Seems like I won't even have to kill Dream, he already fucked it up with y/n...

Now I'll finally have my chance.
