Y/N POV

Despite the tiredness I have been feeling I managed to wake up early. I felt more tired lately so I have to stop with making crystals. I stayed laying down for a while but eventually I sat up. I sighed. What was happening to Techno and Dream lately? Dream was always not here in the day time and last night he came here to check up on me, and Techno has been acting quite odd. One, he was always avoiding eye contact but when I ask for help he obeys, except when its about Amber. It looks like he hates her that much. And two, He's been really clingy and doesn't want to leave my side. I felt bad when I ignored him yesterday so I'm going to make it up to him today.

I felt trapped. I wanted to vent to someone but there's no one to talk about this since its about Dream, Techno and Athena. I stood up and went outside to freshen up to a near river hidden in the woods. I walk through the woods. Hopefully, the river is in this radius or Amber would be pissed waking up at 6 in the morning. 

I kneel down in front of the river and stared at the flowing water. Everything has been happening all at once lately. I just got into a relationship with Dream, then I had a dream about me killing my father, and now...

...

I discovered that Athena is my mother and Alea as my father's sister and my aunt. Everything is just happening so fast its overwhelming me. I scoop up the water using my hands and began washing my face. The water sting my skin a little bit but its fine. As long as I'm clean.

After doing that I stayed there for a while leaning an a tree. I've been so lost lately, I feel trapped. Never once in my have I felt trapped before despite being a slave and prisoner before. I always manage to escape and find a way out but this time... its a lot more complicated.

"Princess?" I yelped from the voice that spoke. I sighed in relief when I see that it was Dream. "You little-Don't do that! You're going to give me a heart attack!" I said hitting him a little. He let out a small chuckle.

"Sorry love, you weren't sleeping on your bed so I came to find you. What're are you up so early in the morning?" You blushed at the new nickname. 

"Umm...nothing, just freshening up. Why are you here? I thought you leave at this hour?" I asked the masked man in front of me. 

"Oh, I'm not leaving today, I actually have something to tell you." He said rubbing the back of his neck.

"oh?"

"I'm really sorry for not helping you do stuff here. I-umm-I was just busy looking for something these past few days so I didn't have time to spend time with you. I'm really sorry, love." Dream was never good at apologies but this time it was different. 

"It's fine Dream don't worry about it. What were you looking for anyway?" It was nice to see that Dream actually cared for you. Sometimes you thought that it was all a game to him and he'll leave you sooner or later, but I guess I was wrong. I smiled softly.

He pulls me into a hug. I hug him back. I felt that the weight on my shoulders suddenly became lighter.

*-*-*-*-*-*-*

"So the trip to the nether would be advanced to tomorrow."

"What?!" The two of them yelled in unison. I knew they would react like this. Techno was the only one who stayed quiet. 

"I can't keep making crystals and gems for the next month guys and Christmas is coming in fast. Me and Amber won't survive without proper materials from home. Its either we stay and die or we leave early and surpass the first fall of winter." I said firmly. There is no way I'm letting myself experience the same pain of freezing to death again. 

"But you broke the crystal from my staff! How am I going to travel properly in the nether? An Elite Ember's most valuable weapon is a staff and mine was destroyed by you." She pointed out. A sigh escaped my lips. 

"Do humans need magic to travel to the nether?" I asked but no answer was to be heard "No. They don't need magic and you say they are weak and pathetic so I don't see a problem in travelling in the nether without your staff. I don't have mine either anyway so I have to do the same as you. May I remind you, you don't make the decisions here." I glared. Though she already apologized, she can be so annoying. 

"Fine then!" She crossed her arms and pouted causing the boys to snicker. I shot them a glare and they both shut up.

"I get that you're in a hurry lov-Y/n, but why so soon? I mean tomorrow? Don't you think that's a little too early? We aren't exactly prepared, well I am but Amber?" He does have a point.I'm not really good at this whole travelling to the nether, let a whole team to lead so I have to do what needs to be done. I turn to the pinkette who was oddly been quiet the whole time.

"Techno, what do you think?"
