Two Sides One System

Chapter 1:

~Dream Team~

George, Sapnap, and Dream all lived together in an apartment. It was the day before they each turned sixteen and had to take the test. They had each made a promise to each other. If one fails, we all fail. They all had decided to make this promise when they moved in together a few months ago. Sapnap had wanted to be a team when they all passed the test, to be the greatest hero teams that there was. George thought it was childish at first, but once Dream had agreed and persuaded him, then he agreed as well. Soon they would know if their dream would come true or not.

George was in the kitchen cooking some lunch for all of them. As he put the food down on each plate and placed it on the table in front of Sapnap and Dream, he could tell from their facial expressions how worried and anxious they each were. He didn't blame them, he felt the same way with the test being tomorrow, but he hated seeing his friends so overwhelmed. Each of them agreed to celebrate their birthdays today rather than on the day of the test in case something happened. Nobody really came up with any plans of what to do so they all sat quietly and ate.

Sapnap stopped and pointed his fork at George, his eyes lit up and he smiled. An idea coming to the boy's mind. "Wait, I have an idea! We should go to the arcade and hang out for the day! Just like old times!"

Dream shifted his mask, a smile forming from underneath. "Sounds fun, plus it'll be a great way to get our minds off of tomorrow."

Sapnap and Dream both looked at George who had a mouthful of chicken and waffles. "Sapnap and Dream both looked at George who had a mouthful of chicken and waffles. "Y'h, s'oundsh guh to m'."

Dream rolled his eyes at his friend while Sapnap teased him. "George, swallow next time! You sounded so dumb!"

"I did not sound dumb!" He defended. "You both look dumb laughing at me though!" George grabbed his plate and quickly walked into the kitchen trying to squash a smile on his face, amused and annoyed by both boys teasing and giggles still coming from the other room.

As George walked back in, he cleared his throat. "Ok, if you two hooligans would calm down and get ready, then we can go and stop wasting the day like this." Then he marched out and headed to his bedroom, going to switch into a fresh pair of clothes.

Dream chuckled to himself as he stood up and walked out of the room, grabbing his and Sapnap's plates.

He hummed to himself a little tune while washed the dishes. Suddenly, a hand grabbed his shoulder and he flinched in surprise, whirling around, ready to punch someone. It was just George.

"Oh, sorry... force of habit I guess." He gave a nervous chuckle.

George shrugged and pulled his glasses off his face, rubbing the dust off of them with his shirt. Looking back at Dream and putting his glasses back on, he spoke softly. "No you're fine, I just wanted to see how much longer I have to wait before you're ready to go. Sapnap's already done, ...though, I'm pretty sure he only changed his shirt."

"Yeah, I was just cleaning up lunch. Thanks by the way," Dream grinned. "for the food I mean. Anyway, let me go get changed." George smiled as Dream walked out of the kitchen, to his room to get ready.

After a few minutes, Dream walked out of his room to see Sapnap awkwardly holding George upside down in the living room. Sapnap was just laughing as he gripped George's ankles and spun around.

"SAPNAP I SWEAR- Stop! Put me down, I'm gonna be sick!" George was screeching, trying and failing to kick Sapnap. "STOP! DREAM! Make him put me down!" George's clout goggles had flown across the room while he was being spun in circles.

Dream just wheezed at their antics, quickly walking past them like he didn't see anything, and went to the kitchen to grab a water bottle.

"Looks like Dream isn't gonna save you today Gogy!" Sapnap taunted from the other room.
