As I walked forward, I clutched my head in pain. Jesus, he didn't have to hit me that hard. Though yet again, why did he let me live? It would have been more beneficial to have ended me there and then, but he didn't. I decided to shrug it off and find Tubbo. My thoughts slowed as I spotted Wilbur, I waved at him. We both proceeded to walk alongside each other, 'How's Tubbo and Tommy?' Wilbur smiles and pats my shoulder, 'For once worry about yourself, they're fine just resting' I smiled weakly as he carried on speaking, apparently the embassy was destroyed. 'Where's your sword?' I looked at my sides, it was gone. That dick probably stole it while I was unconscious, and to think I'm the thief. 'I'll get a new one, Dream probably took that one' Will let out a hum of agreement as we continued to walk.

'Say, are you staying for the war?' Wilbur glanced at me before returning his gaze forward, I nodded and stretched my arms. 'What's the war even about anyway? Must be serious if teenagers are involved' Wilbur sighed and closed his eyes, he always sounded calm and cheery but now he sounded drained and distressed. I frowned as he explained what he was fighting for, all of this. Was just for independence. We made it to where everyone else was, to where I was then engulfed in a tight squeeze. 'Hello to you to Tubbo' I smiled, ruffling his hair. I saw the bandages on his shoulder and frowned, sure he's alive but I couldn't stop him from getting injured.

Everyone else seemed to be making plans among one another, 'Y/N this is Eret, he has a strategy for the war' A male around 6'3 waves and I nod back. 'Follow me' I had a strange feeling in my heart, something didn't feel right at all. I decide to follow, making sure Tommy and Tubbo were behind me. If anything happens, I don't want them to be hurt, this time I'll protect them. Eret moves a few rocks and reveals a trap door, he goes down first with me following behind. Tommy and Tubbo joked around, spirits high, I'm glad they could still be happy during a war. The tunnel dips, and then rises again with a set of stairs.

'This is the final room' Eret states with a smile. As we stepped into the room, Eret slipped away into the shadows. Just what was he planning... I watched Wilbur open a chest labelled with his name, but his smile was placed with a confused glance. The chest was empty. My eyes widen, this was a trap. I looked over at Tommy, his fingers brushed against a button before pushing it. 'Wait Tomm-' The walls began sliding down, and screams started to emit inside the room. From the walls emerged, you guessed it, Dream, and his sad attempt of a team. 'A traitor!' Wilbur yells, drawing his sword. I lost my sword yesterday, what was I to do?

I grabbed Tubbo's hand and pulled him closer to behind me, while Tommy yelled, George was blocking the only exit we had. My eyes scanned the room, avoiding the fighting and keeping Tubbo close behind me. I need to get us out of here. 'Eret listen to me...And I mean this in the nicest way possible. You fucked up.' Tommy spat, holding his sword out protecting himself from any strikes. I saw Dream he had the same annoying smirk on his face as before, he seemed to be looking at me and Tubbo. Though it was hard to tell with the stupid mask he always wore.

We were now sat in the van, weapon less and had no armour. They had taken everything, I remember everyone fighting, the clash of metal from our now stolen weapons, the shouts coming from everyone. We all sat quietly replaying the events, contemplating our next move. I looked over at Wilbur who was staring down at his hands, he looked on the verge of losing it. 'He knows all our plans...' Referring to Eret, he gripped his hair and slid down the wall of the van. 'He's going to tell them' Tommy was cursing under his breathe, while I stroked Tubbo's back as he sat in disbelief. Everyone else stayed silent, for we couldn't believe what has happened today.

'What do we have?' Wilbur glanced up; his eyes watery as he looked around for some sense of hope. 'Nothing.' We all muttered, I watched as Wilbur started to contemplate his decisions. Soon enough he let out a small sigh and picked himself up. 'I'm going to talk to Dream.' I frown and stand up, 'I'll go with you it's not safe on your own especially unarmed' Wilbur nodded, and I smiled slightly. I grabbed a small kitchen knife, and Fundy supplied me with some bandages. Sure, it wasn't a lot but it's better than nothing I suppose. Me and Wilbur made our way outside of the walls, towards whatever remains the embassy had left.

It seems Dream was expecting us as he was already waiting, 'Wilbur and Y/n, how nice of you both to visit' he hums with a smirk. I rolled my eyes and crossed my arms against my chest. God, I hate him. 'Dream you have done many wrongs to my people, and now we've suffered great losses' I nodded along with Wilbur's words glancing away from the chat occasionally.

'Gentlemen and woman.' I whip my head around from the familiarity of the voice, yep it was Tommy. I gave him a cold glare and waved him off, it wasn't safe here for him and I doubt I could stop him from getting hurt. 'Tommy leave.' Wilbur said with a frown, I moved my arms to my side, ready to slip out the knife from my sleeve. If someone else gets hurt today I won't forgive myself. Tommy tried to walk closer, 'Tommy, you are dismissed.' Dream seemed to find the whole situation funny, as he wheezed slightly. 'Tommy you are dismissed.' Wilbur said raising his voice slightly, I watched as Tommy scowled before leaving in a fit.

'Dream, I'm here for a negotiation, for our freedom' Wilbur said bringing Dream back from his laughing fit. His hand adjusts his mask as a sly smirk is formed on his face, 'Well what I want, is to see white flags. You aren't and never will be separate from us and if, I don't see them in the next hour' I clutched the knife a little tight, drawing some of my own blood and letting it trickle down my hand. 'I'll blow up L'manberg' My heart dropped, all those innocent people...

'You wouldn't dare' I spat back, but I knew he would. It's Dream we're talking about; I've already witnessed him shoot Tubbo what makes him not want to blow up a whole country. He glared at me, and I just glared back. 'Okay,' Dream smirks and stands properly 'Let's go right now' He turns and begins to walk to the walls of L'manberg. We made our way to the gates and were let in by Fundy, who froze at the sight of Dream. 'What's going on?' Tubbo asks staring at Dream. 'He had said that if we do not surrender, he will...blow up L'manberg' I move Tubbo and Tommy behind me as George produces TNT. 'But I say Independence or death, if we get no revolution, we want nothing. We'd rather die.' I grabbed my chest to calm my heart, Dream gave a slight nod to a black-haired male. Who then lights the fuse and tosses it. We all backed away.

The explosion was deafening but what happened after was the worst of it.
