You never said I couldn't be the next Dream

Ceeper

~~~Ranboo P.O.V~~~ 

I was in the basement that was full of villagers, and before you say something, no they weren't taken here by force, they like being here. They are out of the cold and safe, so they taken care of here. So when Techno came down with someone following him, I was surprise to see who it was. "Hi Sam.." I didn't know why he was here, or why Techno let him in. 

"Hi Ranboo." The silence was thick in the air, the villagers must have felt that because they went back into their rooms. We kinda just look at each other, unsure on what to do next, until Techno spoke up. "This is some great lore, am I right chat?" I rolled my eyes, "How about we go up stairs, where we can talk." I went pass Techno and Sam to clime up the latter. 

I went all up to the attic, which was Techno's room. I waited for the two to come up, I took the chance to take in the room, it was small and cozy. There was a picture of him and Philza on his night stand, couldn't help but thought how sweet that was for him to have.  

Techno sat on his bed, "See chat, now we are going to get some good lore!" Sam looked confused, and slightly worried for Techno, I shrugged it off. I been with here for awhile and learned to deal with it, I mean, I have my own chat. I am not sure if Sam has his own, but I am guessing that is not what he has came to ask about. When the words left his mouth, I couldn't believe it, I thought I misheard, misunderstood. Though I didn't, because Techno's joking smile left, his face becoming serious. 

"Ranboo, did hear you me?" I shook my head, feeling hurt on Tommy's behalf. "...Where were you?" I didn't know how to go about this, I felt angry for Tommy, sad, hurt. This person was might to help him, and yet Tommy didn't even know that. He looked down, as if he wonder that himself, I could see the regret and sadness in his eyes, the pain. "I had to leave him, I didn't want to, I swear to DreamXD I didn't. Things got hard, he was in danger when he was with me, so I did the only thing I could do. I left him." Every word was filled with pain, regert, sadness, and suddenly, I felt pity for him. Sam wasn't a bad dude, in fact he has tried to help me and Tubbo many times when Tommy first left. I sighed, sitting down next to Techno, "When I went to visit Tommy, to try and get him out of there, he was gone. I thought he ran away, I thought he came here." Sam's voice was full of distress. 

"He is here, right?" His eyes, jumping to me and Techno, but our silent was his answer. His eyes looking broken in that moment when it hits him, Tommy is missing. He stumbles back, his hand reaching out to hold onto anything, that being the wall. His breath quicken, as he slide to the floor. I didn't know what to do, so I kinda just walked to him, sitting next to him. What I didn't expect was for him to hug me, so I just awkwardly hugged him back. I patted his back, unsure what to do. Techno kinda just watched, himself being a awkward dude, didn't dare to move. He cried softly, his sobs being so small. I wanted to tell him that we will find Tommy, we will bring him home, we will have him safe, but I didn't. Instead, I held a broken creeper, a broken man, a broken father.

~~~~Sapnap P.O.V~~~~ 

I dragged myself away from Dream, reaching for my sword, but failed. He kicked the sword away from my hand, I sighed letting my head fall. I felt myself being picked up by my hair, I groan in pain."Tsk, tsk, tsk, did you really think you could beat me?" Dream scoffed, I could feel tears rising in my eyes, "Fuck...you." I spat at him when he made me look at his horrible mask. I always hated that damn mask, the fucking dumbass smile, the soulless eyes. "Aww, be more nice. Won't ya?" he dropped me to the ground, I could barely keep my eyes open. My breathing was heavy and slow, don't die, not now, not when Tommy needs you! Stay awake, stay awake, keep your fire burning, keep it burning. Burn, him, up. 

That's when I felt every part of my body burn, and to be honest, it felt fucking good. I could feel the heat running through me, the fire burning my lips, I slowly left myself up. All of my anger, all of my frustration, burst into a hellfire. Each step I took burned the ground under me, I eyed Dream as he backed up a bit. "Want me to be nice?" I growled before smirking, "I'll be nice, real nice. You know, it is kinda cold, let me warm you up!" I opened my mouth, I felt the fire running up my throat as it made its way out. I watched as Dream ran for his life, I kept Tommy behind me. Keeping Dream away from the poor boy, I couldn't reach Sam now. I had to go to someone else, but I didn't knew who. I pushed those thoughts away for now, I need to beat Dream, I need to protect Tommy. 

I looked behind me to see Tommy, his eyes moved a bit, I huffed out a huge puff of smoke. I went over to pick up Tommy as the smoke cover us. He was so small and light, I wonder when the last time he eat a really good meal. That's when it hit me, I could always go to my dad, he would care for Tommy while I try to find Sam, and I am sure dad knows where Sam could be. They are friends after all, so I just need to get to him. I took one last look at where I fought Dream, and where I lost my friend for life. I took a deep breath, walking away with a small broken boy in my hands, I wonder to myself if this is how my dad felt when he found me. My tail moved a bit and my ears tiled to any sound, I prayed to the gods that Dream wasn't following us. 

~~~??? P.O.V~~~

I was going to be in huge trouble but I couldn't care any less, I don't give a shit for my role, I was going to do what is right.
