Taking a risk

I curled up, hanging onto Dumbdog for my life. Of course nobody could blame me. I never wanted to release him. I needed him more than life itself.

Little Foot was barking and Apollo was getting annoyed with him. He looked at me with tired eyes.

"Please deal with him. I love you but..." he mumbled. I smiled and kissed his forehead before getting up.

I opened the bedroom door and everyone was still asleep. My dog ran ahead and I watched him.

Hands grabbed me and slammed me against the wall. A shorter man stood there.

"Toast..." I growled in anger. He poked something into my neck and I slumped to the floor.

Little Foot was barking until a door opened. Toast looked over and I saw David run out. He looked panicked. Hafu must've still been asleep

"Toast!" He said and was ready to fight. Toast held up his hand.

"Nu Uh David. You might want to defuse the bomb and let me take Steven," he growled. A beeping sound started up and Toast flung me over his shoulder.

I would never forget the look on David's face. Wide eyes full of fear. Body tense, obviously knowing what had to be done. He had to fix the bomb.

I felt limp and couldn't move. Little Foot tried to follow and pull on Toasts suit with his teeth. Toast literally kicked my dog to the side and I heard him whimper in pain.

I felt myself being dropped onto a hard floor and I groaned. He looked at me with a smirk.

"Don't worry Steve. You'll see what I have in plan for you soon," I heard Toast hiss. I whimpered and felt myself unable to move.

I was afraid. I couldn't move. I wanted my dog. I wanted my Apollo. I wanted my boyfriend.

I felt the ship land a while later. I was literally dragged across the floor and dropped onto my back.

I let my eyes flutter open and I groaned. Pain spread through my back and I whimpered. I slowly managed to sit up. Fundy knelt next to me, worry on his face.

"Are you ok?" He asked me. I nodded slowly with a small confused glance.

"Yeah. Why'd Toast take me?"

"I don't know. But he knows I'm the spy. We're locked in the greenhouse right now. How's your back?"

"Hurting. The metal floor hurt badly," I said, a small forced laugh coming from my mouth. Fundy sat next to me as we leaned against the wall.

"So now what?" Fundy asked me. I shrugged. I just wanted to go home. The door flew open and Peter and Toast walked up.

Peter pinned Fundy against the wall and held a knife to his throat. I watched in fear. Fundy looked afraid.

"Now Steve. You can join us or let Fundy die. You know I wouldn't hesitate. And what if I let 5up know it was your fault..." he hissed.

I felt like I was shaking. I think I was. I felt afraid of Toast. But I also knew he wouldn't hesitate.

Fundy was looking between me and Peter. I glanced at Toast. I knew what had to do. If I didn't

Toast would kill Fundy. He would ship his body to Cibs ship and 5up would find it. His heart would be broken forever.

But if he found out, likely from Toast, that I was the reason Fundy was dead. He would hate me forever. He would want me dead.

I didn't even care if he hated me for getting Fundy killed. I just couldn't stand the thought of breaking 5ups heart. I locked eyes with Toast.

"I'll do it. I'll join you but you leave Fundy alone. Deal?" I asked. Toast signaled for Peter to drop Fundy.

Fundy collapsed to the ground and stared at me with wide eyes. His ears were pinned back and he stared in shock.

"Steve no!! You can't do that to Apollo!" He yelled. Peter snapped towards him and slapped him across the face.

His ears dropped and he was shaking.

"I SAID LEAVE HIM ALONE!!" I snapped. Toast threw me against the wall and nobody moved.

"Peter. Return Fundy to his room. Steve, come with me," Toast ordered. I followed him slowly, glancing back at Fundy.

"Good. Tomorrow we head to Polus. You'll see what happens there," he hissed at me. I was shoved into my bedroom.

I opened it and saw Toast and Peter walking away. I shut it back and sighed. I knew my team was already heartbroken.

Hafu would get up at Jubbs barking and Little Foots whimpering

Sugi would wake up 5up, barking to be let out. He would find David

Apollo would get worried about me and come to try and find me

DK would be woken by Apollo and be scared to death for me

Smajor would wake up and be told I was gone and panic. He would know what happened

Ellum would be woken up by Hafu. His heart would shatter from it

Koji would be woken by an upset Ellum, he would cry when told the news

Janet would come out at the dogs barking and be confused when I was gone

Kimi would follow Janet out, and start to cry when I was gone

David would have to explain. Explain everything in depth. Hafu would cry. Followed by the rest of them.

And my mind couldn't help it. Was Tubbo evil? The twins own flesh and blood? I don't know.

I paved my room. Trying not to cry of course. I tried to summon my dog.

What people didn't fully know, was that Little Foot was basically my familiar. He was with me no matter what. I think.

The door opened and Tubbo came in.

"Listen. I have the spell book. I've translated a few spells for you. Fundy can do the rest if you really need," he said. He turned and left and I knew Tubbo was on my side.

I opened Shlatts book and flipped through to see what Tubbo translated
