Champion ~ Book 1

Chapter 24

Technoblade faltered, his sword missing Wilbur completely before he held it back up to Wilbur's neck. He stared at the other man in confusion, and maybe a little anger. 

"What did you just say?" Techno hissed. 

"Dave," Wilbur hissed, his amber eyes gleaming with fear.

"How do you know my name," Techno demanded. Wilbur hesitated for a moment.

"Just tell him, Will!" Tommy yelled. "It's not worth dying over,"

"How do you know my name," Techno demanded again, his voice no more than a low growl now. 

"Please let me go," Wilbur pleaded. Dream glanced at Tubbo who looked frightened and confused before heading toward Wilbur and Technoblade who were basically frozen now. 

"Answer the question!" Techno yelled, shoving Wilbur against the wall even harder. The taller man hissed with pain and glanced at Dream.

"Help me," He pleaded, staring at Dream.

"What are you hiding," Dream growled. "Whatever it is you'd better tell him before he runs out of patience," He nodded to Technoblade who hardly seemed to notice Dream. 

"Tommy- Tommy and I..." Wilbur stammered, stopping again.

"Spit it out," Techno snarled. "What are you, a stalker?" He hissed. "How do you know my name," 

"We're your... your brothers," Techno stiffened.

"Liar," he growled. "I'm an orphan, I have no brothers," Wilbur swallowed hard.

"Please let me go," He begged again. "I'm your older brother and Tommy's your younger brother, but- but you don't have to believe that... just let me go and we can pretend this n-never happened," Techno stared at Wilbur for a moment before slowly turning to look at Tommy. Dream realized with a start how similar Tommy and Techno looked as they stared at each other. They both had the same pale blue eyes and blond hair, and even Wilbur seemed like he was actually telling the truth right now. After a moment Techno let go of Wilbur and stepped back, his blue gaze cold.

"Get out of here," He hissed. "If I ever see your sorry face again, there will be no mercy," Wilbur didn't hesitate and hurried away, turning around after a moment to stare at Tommy and Tubbo for a long moment. Tommy watched him sadly as he slowly turned around and headed away again and Techno stared as well. 

"Is he lying," he turned to face Tommy, his gaze serious. "Because if he's lying I'm going to dedicate the rest of my life to killing him," He hissed.

"He's not lying," Tommy said. "Hello big brother," Tommy looked pleased but Technoblade didn't. Techno didn't say anything for a while before turning and heading toward one of the iron doors, leaving Dream to stand and realize he was basically surrounded by all unfamiliar faces. He glanced at the one person he recognized, George, before heading quickly after Technoblade. 

"Techno?" Dream called, searching the halls for a bit. Then he stopped, realizing he knew exactly where Technoblade was. His feet took him down the halls, knowing exactly where the room was, until he was there. Techno was there too, sitting on the bench. There were a few beheaded dummies and foam pieces that likely had been Techno's doings, and Dream sat down beside him. "Are you ok?" Techno didn't reply for a moment, looking up slightly and gazing at something in front of him. 

"I thought I was alone," Techno sighed. "I've always imagined what it could have been like to have brothers, and now that I have them..." He trailed off. "It's over. This is reality now, no more fantasies." 

"Well, that doesn't mean this reality has to be bad," Dream said. "It's more like... it's like your fantasies are coming true, not being taken away," Techno glanced at him and shrugged.

"I guess you could be right." He said. "I have a brother now," He smiled slightly. "What's your name,"

"Um... Dream?" Dream said, a bit confused.

"No, your real name," Techno said. "You know mine, I should get to know yours now," Dream hesitated for a moment. The only people who knew his real name were his close friends and family. Technoblade is my friend now. Dream thought after a moment. He lifted his hands and took his mask off, flipping it around to stare at it for a moment before looking at Techno again. Techno reached up and took his own pig mask off, revealing his face, and the two smiled.

"Clay," Dream said. "My name's Clay," 

Just one more chapter. I'm sorry if you wanted more from me.
