The Hidden Kingdom // DreamSMP

Chapter 12: Frustration

Dream sighed in frustration at the empty campsite.

The day before, he went to check on the boy and found he was hiding things from him. He lashed out and left. Panic over took him as he worried over the blonde that could leave the cage he had spent so long building. His source of power.

Cursing to himself, he eyed the tall tower in the middle of the explosion he made from his outburst the day before.

Did he die?

No. Tommy wouldn't do that. He's stubborn and he wouldn't kill himself just because he was miserable. Atleast, not without getting what he was fighting for. Even if he thought about it.. No. He wouldn't have.

Dream kicked some of the debris over.

There was no body. After all, if Tommy was on his last life. He wouldn't respawn. Yet there was no body.

He isn't dead.

Dream refused to believe he was dead.

Not that it mattered if he had Arabella by his side.

Damn Schlatt.

Finding his book and threatening him with it.

He clicked his tongue in annoyance at the memory. As a headache threatened to form, he further searched the area for Tommy.

Unfortunately for Karl. Dream wasn't in the best mood and needed to take off some steam.
If that meant he needed to kill someone, then maybe it would be done.

Walking through the halls of your school, you couldn't help but notice the extra amount of stares and whispers that were seemingly directed towards you.

You decided to take a break from everything for a few days. Taking a day off of school the day before.

You couldn't bother with your appearance that morning as you only swiftly threw on your uniform and walked to class without doing anything else.

Their stares burned into your sides as they avoided your gaze and you lowered your head, crossing your arms.

Originally, you had assumed they were staring due to your lack of effort in appearance. But even during class, you felt their weary eyes on your figure. Even your teachers were a bit weary to meet your gaze.

It was odd and the unwanted attention made you uncomfortable.

You sighed, keeping your gaze on the floor and decided to take refuge in one of the bathrooms. You couldn't help but notice as others clearer the way for you as if you were the plague. The others in the bathroom stared at you as they quickly gathered themselves and left.

Leaving you alone to your thoughts.

Walking in front of one of the sinks, you leaned down, turning on the sink, and splashed your face with the running water. Looking up, you see yourself in the mirror.

Gasping, you stumble slightly as you leaned closer to look at your eyes.

They were unnaturally green.

You blinked a few times.

"What the fuck...?" You turn your face over a few times. "How-"
