"TommyInnit has been revived"

Ranboo?

"This is what friends are for"

It kept ringing in Tommy's head but he needed to be there for Tubbo so he took some quiet deep breaths, accidentally hugging Tubbo tighter without noticing. Tubbo noticed this but ignored it.

"Where's Ranboo?" Tommy asked, releasing his grip a bit. "I don't know, he said he got a text from someone and left" Tubbo responded. "Isn't that weird?" Tommy questioned. "I guess, should we go and look for him?" Tommy nodded and they went outside. They saw Ranboo walking towards the mansion except when he them he took a left and kept walking. "Weird" Tommy said, catching up to Ranboo with Tubbo behind him.

"Hey Ranboo, where did you go?" Tommy asked him. "N-nowhere" Ranboo stuttered. He normally stutters so Tommy didn't really take any notice of it, he was more focused on how Ranboo was very much on edge. "What's up?" He asked him. "Hm? Oh erm, nothing, don't worry about it" Ranboo laughed nervously, speeding up. "You in a rush?" Tubbo asked him. "N-no. Sorry I just want to be alone right now if that's ok" Ranboo said, kinda regretting it. "Oh ok, no worry's, text us if you need anything" Tubbo said, he started to walk away until he noticed Tommy wasn't moving so he pulled him away.

"Start thinking, what could be wrong" Tommy said, instantly zoning out. *He could've been ender walking and done something stupid, or a fight with Techno or Phil, or maybe it was something with Wilbur* He thought. "I'm sure he's fine, Tommy?" Tubbo said, waving his hand infront of Tommy face to get his attention. "Hm, yeah, sure" Tommy said, coming back to reality. "Should we go back to him?" Tommy asked with a worried look on his face. "I don't know, he said if he needs anything he would text us" Tubbo said.

"Yeah but he's like you, quiet if somethings really wrong meaning he won't tell anyone" Tommy argued back. "I guess, maybe we should then" Tubbo agreed and they started walking to where they last saw him. "Where are you?" Tommy texted. No response. "He's not responding" Tommy said worriedly. "It's ok, we'll find him" Tubbo comforted, bringing a small smile to Tommy's face. They soon made it back to the woods. "He's most likely here, he always is" Tommy said, they both split up and started looking.

Tommy soon enough heard talking. He hid around a bush and peered over it to see Ranboo walking in circles whilst fidgeting with his hands. "What can I do, I can't do anything, what if he gets hurt and it's because of me, what if he hurts him" Ranboo mumbled. "Hey, you ok man?" Tommy said, making him jump. "Oh Tommy! Hey, yeah I'm f-fine" Ranboo said with a nervous laugh. "I know your not, what's on your mind" Tommy said calmly whilst walking over to him. "I- erm, n-nothing haha" he said with another nervous laugh.

"Mhm, not buying it, what's up" Tommy said again. "I-I can't tell you, p-please don't pressure me" Ranboo said, looking down at the ground. "I'm not going to pressure you if you don't want to tell me, that's fine, want a hug" Tommy said with a smile. Ranboo looked at him and soon gave in. "I-I'm sorry I can't tell you" Ranboo apologised, his voice cracking a bit. "It's ok, do you really want me to leave?" Tommy asked, rubbing his back. "You can stay if you want-". "Ranboo do YOU want me to leave?" Tommy asked again. "N-not really but-". "Then I won't" Tommy said, cutting him off again.

"Tubbo's around here somewhere, will you tell him?" Tommy asked. "Y-yes". Tommy held Ranboos hand as they started looking for Tubbo. They soon bumped into him. "You found him!" Tubbo said excitedly whilst hugging Ranboo. "Can I talk to you for a second" Ranboo asked him. "Sure man!" Tubbo replied, watching as Tommy left.

"What's up" Tubbo asked, watching as Ranboo started crying. "Hey, it's ok, what's wrong?"Tubbo asked again, sitting on the ground with him so he could reach his face. "I-I saw Dream earlier and he threatened me, if I speak to Tommy then he will do something bad to him" Ranboo cried. Tubbo was shocked *wtf* he thought. "It's ok, we can work something out" Tubbo said calmly, pulling Ranboo into a hug. "B-but what if he thinks I hate him, I won't be able to talk to him".

"You have me! I can explain everything to him, I can be a messenger boy!" Tubbo laughed, getting a small chuckle back. "I-I guess, but I won't be able to talk to him" Ranboos smile soon dropped. "Doesn't mean we can't hang out". "I think he did mention that, I cant fully remember" Ranboo sighed. "Oh right" Tubbo sighed.

As Tommy was walking back, he felt like he was being watched, he hated it. He kept walking until he heard a twig snap behind him, instantly making him turn around only for him to see no one. He got scared so he quickly texted Wilbur "Currently walking in the woods and heard a twig snap behind me and theres no one there plz come help" his text read. "Which woods?" Wilbur replied. "The one near Snowchester" Tommy texted back as he started walking a bit faster. "Be there in a minute".

Tommy sighed in relief once he saw Wilbur in the distance but worse when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He didn't look back, he just started running. Tears started to fill his eyes as he heard footsteps running behind him and Wilbur darting towards him. Wilbur pulled Tommy behind him as soon as he got in reach, also pulling out his sword and holding it up to Dreams neck. "Leave before I leave more marks than last time" Wilbur growled, watching Dream laugh nervously and walk away.

Wilbur quickly turned around and looked at Tommy. He was shaking badly and his breathing was rapid. "It's ok, breathe with me ok" Wilbur said with a smile. Tommy nodded and focused on his breaths. "That's it, it's ok, I know your scared, come here" Wilbur said, picking Tommy up and bringing him back to the massive mansion. He sat Tommy down on one of the sofas and wrapped him in his coat before bringing him into a tight hug. "Your ok now, your safe, he's not going to get you" Wilbur said calmly.

Tommy nodded as his cries soon turned into small sniffles and a few silent tears."You ok now" Wilbur asked. Tommy nodded, he wasn't, he was very scared. Wilbur was about to get up when he was being pulled down by Tommy. "D-don't leave me" he stuttered. "I'm not going anywhere, promise" Wilbur said, sitting back down and stroking Tommy's head. He soon calmed down and fell asleep.
