Mirror Mirror on the Wall, Who is the Fairest of Them All? (Tommyinnit Au)

Chapter 23- We're Not Leaving Him Behind

Tommy POV

Tommy groaned, slowly opening his eyes. What had happened? He looked around, trying to move his body. His eyes widened when he realized he was strapped to some kind of a table.

He twisted and tried to move, but the ropes were just too tight. They dug into his wrists and legs, creating a horrible burning sensation.

"Good morning Thomas."

He quickly looked up, seeing as Ivory entered the room. A smile was clear on her face, like she had been waiting for this day for a while. Which she had.

"You have no idea how long I've waited for this day." she grinned, her eyes gleaming.

Seeing her this excited terrified Tommy. How could someone be this cruel? "Why do you want to kill me so bad? What did I ever do to you?" Sadness filled his voice. "I-I'm your son."

She cackled at that. "My son? You think-" she laughed harder. "A worthless brat like you could never be my son, you're as oblivious as your father."

"You didn't-"

"Of course I didn't love your father! How can I love someone who's in love with someone else?" she asked, rolling her eyes. "Even after your mother's death he still was in love with her. Ridiculous. Obviously she didn't love him back, seeing as she killed herself."

Tears began to form in his eyes at the thought. "S-She did love him... she was just sick."

"Is that what he told you? Just to spare your own feelings?" she smirked. "She didn't love either one of you. You were the one who drove her to do it. She just couldn't take care of you anymore."

"T-That's not true!" he stammered, the tears pouring down his face now. "She did love me!"

"No she didn't and you know it." Ivory rolled her eyes, taking out her knife. She began polishing it with a clean rag. "Why would a mother kill herself right after having her child?"

Tommy shook his head. It couldn't be true. It just couldn't. 

"Shall we begin? I can't wait for you to feel this pain." Ivory stared at his chest longingly, like she could see right to his heart. 

"Don't worry, I'll make this as slow and as painful as possible."

Wilbur POV

"Are you serious? You want us to go up against the queen?" Dream's eyes widened. He was still consoling a sobbing Tubbo, his arms wrapped protectively around his little brother.

"We have to! Tommy is in danger and the more we wait the more hurt he could be!" Wilbur exclaimed. He was not taking no for an answer. He would go alone if he had to. Anything to save Tommy.

"But the queen's guards won't hold back. They could kill us all!" George exclaimed, exchanging a look with Dream.

"We have to save Tommy." Wilbur repeated. "He doesn't deserve anything that's happened to him. He deserves to be happy, he deserves to be home. With us. Where he belongs."

Sapnap smiled, "I'm in."

Wilbur smiled back, looking at the rest of his friends. They had to help, they just had to.

Dream thought for a moment, "Okay, I'm in too." 

The rest of them quickly agreed, all having become fond of the blonde over the last few weeks. 

"We leave now." Techno growled. "We have to bring him home."

-----------------

"What's the plan?" Sapnap whispered, crouching behind the bush further. They were near the castle, now the issue was getting in.

"You guys stay here and keep a lookout. Phil and Techno and I will go in and find Tommy." Wilbur explained.

"What was the point of even coming?" George huffed, immediately earning a glare from Techno.

"Hopefully we can do this without violence." Phil suggested, even though he knew that wasn't option.

"Nope, we're definitely doing this with violence. As soon as I see Ivory, she's dead." Techno muttered, meaning full well what he said.

Sapnap looked back at the castle. "How are you planning to get in?"

"I've got an old friend who will be willing to help." Wilbur smiled.

"And if he doesn't?" Dream questioned, hoping there was more to the plan.

"She." Wilbur corrected. "And she will." He moved forward, creeping towards the town square. Techno and Phil followed, while Sapnap, George, and Dream stayed behind.

They walked towards the maids who were working, putting up clothes on lines and sewing, while trying to look as normal as possible.

A young blonde was sewing near the well, looking very sad.

"Niki!" Wilbur exclaimed, rushing towards her.

"Wil?" her eyes went wide, like she couldn't believe what she was hearing. She ran towards him, forgetting about the dress she was sewing in the process. The two hugged after not having seen each other in so long. It was hard to stay in contact after being separated.

"I've missed you so much." he whispered, hugging her tightly.

"Me too! It's too quiet without your music to fill the town." she sighed. She pulled out of the hug, looking at him with concern. "What are you doing here?" 

"We need to find Tommy."

"Tommy? The prince?" she echoed, watching as he nodded.

"He was taken and we think he's in danger!"

Niki gasped, "Come on then! There's no time to lose!" She threw servants clothes at them. "Put that on! Quick!"

Techno glared at the clothes, but put them on anyway. Phil and Wilbur slipped into theirs quickly before following Niki.

"If she has him here there's only one place he can be. And we might already be too late."
