Tommy grips his axe and hits the tree with it and repeats this action till the tree falls then gathers the wood for this new build he thought of adding to his island.

Tommy had been exiled far away from the Dream smp and now he currently resides in this little island, Ghostbur was with him since the time he was first exiled and has stayed with him since.

But since Ghostbur isn't the one whose exiled, so he is still free to roam the lands of the Dream smp and be able to do whatever he wants.

But it was fine, Tommy would just make a better home and no one would ever take this away from him.

But...

Dream had also been visiting during Tommy's exile and had been really nice to him, Tommy didn't want to let his guard down and fully trust Dream since he was just being nice to him.

Tommy sighs and wipes sweat from his forehead and looks around, his tent and a little shack and then he looks over to the portal but his eyes widen, he double takes at the sight of the child looking around, he went to rub his eyes but after he rubbed his eyes the child was still there.

Pocketing his axe into his inventory as to not seem intimidating to the child he speed runs over to the child calling over at them, they turn around and Tommy stops at his tracks looking at the child, staring at them as he examines their features closely.

Skin gray and pale as their (h/c) hair is disheveled and messy behind them as they wear a (color) beanie, their eyes pitch black, and he furrows his brows at the sight of black sort of tint on their hands and feet.

He opens his mouth to speak but before he could get a word out the child speaks, 'Would you like to play?' they ask smiling up at him.

Tommy rubs at his neck trying to find an answer as the child stares up expectantly at him, 'What kind of game?' Tommy asks.

The child puts a hand under their chin as they ponder what game they should play.

They close their eyes then open them again looking at the blonde boy, Tommy shudders at their void like eyes, 'What do you like to play?' they ask floating around him, taking in his features.

Tommy could only scratch his head and shakes his head, sighing he says 'I'm to busy at the moment, maybe we can play another time?' They only pout but then smile again as they float up going in circles.

'I sometimes like to make flower crowns with Mom.' they say as they walk in the air as if they were balancing on a tight rope.

They have a Mum? Tommy thought.

He shakes his head and sighs, he takes out his axe from his inventory and walks over to the previous tree he was cutting down with the ghost child floating behind him.

They look around the place and raise an eyebrow, fiddling with the sleeves of their (color) sweater making it longer and covering their hands they ask Tommy, 'Are you alone?' voice child like but airy as if the voice was distant.

'Uh...yeah, but I do have some company, they're just not here at the moment.' he says getting ready to chop down another tree after gathering the logs from the previous one.

The child hums, they float over to Tommy's tent and look around inside it inspecting the things inside the tent.

They smile and float outside the tent and went to look for a patch of flowers, failing to find any they float over to Tommy, 'I'm going to go to a really pretty place to look for flowers, do you wanna come with me?' they look up at him tugging at his shirt.

'Huh?' Tommy furrows his eyebrows 'Where..is this pretty place you're talking about?' he asks crouching at eye level as the child 'It's where I live!' they exclaim raising their arms.

Tommy tilts his head thinking for a bit, What if Dream comes to visit and he can't find him here? But the place where the child lives are probably far away from the land of the smp.

He nods and went to grab a backpack and pack some things he would need but a cold hand stops him, he shivers at the contact and looks down at the child, shaking their head they smile up at him and grab at his hand with both their hands and close their eyes, their surroundings start to shift and distort as Tommy looks around figuring out what is happening.

The background was really bright so Tommy covers his eyes with his arm and squint his eyes, but as the child let go he looks around and it looks like their in a forest, it was a dark oak forest and it seemed there was a path of flowers that would seem to lead somewhere, he looks at the child next to him and they stare at him with a big smile.

'Where are we?' he asks the child as they lead him to walk on the path of flowers, 'This is Sanctuary!' they exclaim raising their hand gesturing to the forest, this forest was different to the other ones he has seen, this forest had a more whimsical look to it, and there seemed to be like some kind of magical vibe to the forest.

The child smiles as they spot a familiar building and they try to walk more faster pulling Tommy along with them, Tommy stumbles but finds his footing and walks along with the child his mouth open agape as he stares at the marble columns that embodied greek architecture like a greek temple.

The child leads them up the stares and Tommy's mouth can only hang lower as he gapes at the beauty where the child resides in, there was a fountain in the middle with lily pads floating in it and there seems to be a palace as well inside this 'Sanctuary'.

Tommy just lets the child lead him anywhere at this point, but if this is a trap the boy has already readied himself to swing his sword in case of any danger.

'Momma!' They exclaim calling out to their Mother from where they stood, 'I made a new friend!' and is in cue a radiant Woman walks in, with her long brown hair, her ears pointed and she was wearing this muted colored purple gown with golden lining and a golden laurel crown resting atop her head.

'Is that so?' She looks over at the two and gasps at the sight of Tommy.
