Technos Pov

I squatted over the girl laying in the middle of the floor, I had heard he scream from my bedroom. I assumed it was because she woke up in a place she didn't know. But when I approached she was fast asleep, peacefully rolled into herself. Her face however was twisted in pain, I could tell she was having some sort of nightmare. I went to wake her up but she jerked awake before I had the chance.

"Hey, hey you okay?" I asked, she studied me for a second before whispering my name

"technoblade?" Her voice was hoarse.

"Why so formal. Techno will do." I replied trying to be as calm as possible. Philza told me a few times I can appear scary at first.

(Your Pov:)

"And you are?" He asked me. I felt uncomfortable laying below him. I slowly sat up feeling every ache in my body. Techno stood behind me, taking a few steps back.

"I-"

"ey?"

"Well no. But uh."

"I save your life and you don't want to tell me your name?" Techno said, his eyes still cold on mine. It was hard to keep eye contact for longer than a few seconds at a time.

"Saved my life?"

"Yeah. I was out for a casually stroll and you were face first in the ocean. Completely knocked out and cold."

"Oh..." I replied kind of speachless.

Techno passed me some food as I sat down at the table in the middle of the room, everything seemed so weird.

"Thank you." I continued when words finally formed.

"Well if you won't tell me your name I guess I'll have to make one." Techno joked."Hows Aphrodite?"He finally said after a few seconds of silence.

"What does that even mean?"

"Yep perfect for you." He said before leaving the room. I guessed he knew I was in too much pain to follow him out.

I looked around at the fireplace that was now out, replaced by the sun. The room was beautiful and minimalist, spruce wood furniture and a small kitchen with stairs heading to what I assumed was the bedroom.

It wasn't long before techno returned but this time with someone else. I stood quickly grabbing my bag, my sword was gone but I still had my bow. I pulled it out aiming it at the man standing next to techno.

"Woah, thought you said she was out cold." The man laughed slightly.

"Well she was. Thought she was in too much pain to attack." Techno replied crossing his arms, he stood against the door frame. His eyes examined mine.

"Clearly she is. She doesn't even have an arrow."The man laughed again.

I looked down at my bow to notice no arrow was there. For God sake y/n, you're not dumb but you definitely are stupid.
I threw my bow on the floor towards them in frustration.

"Nice to meet you too. I'm philza." The man said picking up the bow. He held his green and white hat to his head as he bent down, picking up the half broken bow. His blonde hair falling over his face. "Holy shit this bow. It's beautiful." He continued, as he looked at the hand carved art along the wood.

"Thank you." I replied cautiously.

"Jesus relax. Philza won't hurt you." Techno finally spoke taking the bow from philza. He looked at the same art before putting it in a chest, locking it after.

"Hey! That's mine!" I shouted

"Yeah and I took your sword. Until I know who the hell you are." Techno shot back.

"Well that's easy."Phil butted in before sitting down on the sofa. Tapping the space next to him for me. I slowly put my bag down approaching him.

"You know her?"

"Well no, but everyone else does. She's highly hated tech. She's actually been missing for two weeks"

"Okay stop. I haven't been missing. I'm on the run,from many people" I corrected.

"On the run? Is that why I found you in the ocean?"

"Probably." Philza laughed.

I simply rolled my eyes. I was suprised these two didn't want me dead too, it seemed like the whole world hated me.

"You guys aren't going to kill me right?"

"I wouldn't waste food and resources on a dead girl Aphrodite." Techno spoke up before leaving once again, this time he told us he would be back later tonight.

"Philza-"

"Phil is fine." He suggested.

"Sorry. Phil what does Aphrodite mean...?"

He just shrugged before laughing a little to himself. "I don't know y/n."

"You know my name?!"

"Yeah." He was so simple and nice sounding.

"...you know me don't you?"

"Yes. I know you y/n. I know what you've done."

"Then why aren't you turning me in, telling techno? Killing me?" I asked curiously. He seemed to have no intentions of hurting me.

"Because y/n. I have a tendency to adopt broken things. There's always two sides of every story and no one's heard yours. No one's given you a voice. I gave techno a voice and realised he was never bad. You'll hear stories about him but his truth, thats all that matters after hundreds of years on this place."

"Oh." I replied a little shocked. Could I really be safe here...?
