My Family (Sally The Salmon)

♦ Chapter 21 ♦

(3rd Person POV)

"Techno, I need you to take him out." Schlatt was clearly growing more impatient.

Everyone was horrified. Even Quackity seemed unsure. "Schlatt, we have him in jail, though." Schlatt ignored his vice president. "Not enough."

"To dinner?" There went the last of JSchlatt's patience. "You're not going to take him out to dinner, Techno!"

"You're going to KILL him."

"You're going to KILL HIM! Right now! Splatter his blood, guts, skin, intestines all over the floor of this podium! You're going to kill him and you're going to make. It. Hurt."

"Oh... Oh." Techno was hesitant. The voices weren't helping either. Most wanted Tubbo to live and were yelling 'DON'T' While the other half was yelling 'BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD'

Techno wasn't sure on what to do. Kill him or save him? Wilbur was still confident that Techno won't hurt Tubbo. Tommy is beyond terrified and Sally doesn't know if she should intervine and risk their plan. Everyone else was either protesting or staying silent.

Schlatt then turned to Tubbo "I'd rather rule alone than with YOU." He said harshly. Tubbo was on the brink of tears. Is this really how his life will end?

"DO IT, TECHNOBLADE!"

Techno was muttering to himself. The voices are growing louder by the minute and the others waited silently for what was about to happen next.

Techno considered his options. Kill Tubbo, don't get revealed, and get out of here, but also risk the trust of his two brothers. Or, attempt to break Tubbo out, risk the plan, probably get attacked by about 20 people, get imprisoned aswell, and get executed next.

Surely the more beneficial option was the former. "Technoblade." Schlatt said impatiently. Techno sighed. "I'm loading my crossbow." And he does just that.

All of the voices, at this point, were screaming at him to either stop or keep going. But then a certain voice said

'AIM FOR SCHLATT!'

All the voices halted. Then they were all yelling the same thing.

'AIM FOR SCHLATT'

'KILL SCHLATT'

'JFK'

'KILL MR. PRESIDENT'

'DOWN WITH THE TYRANT'

Technoblade considered it. If he killed Schlatt, the president would be dead, Tubbo would be alive, there'd be no more government, his brothers would still trust him, and the voices would get their blood. Those were the good points.

The bad points are that he'd be attacked by 20 people, probably killed, if not he'd be a wanted criminal, he'd probably get caught and imprisoned and, at some point, executed.

"TECHNOBLADE!" That snapped Techno out his thoughts. Then at that moment, Techno knew what he had to do.

"I'm sorry, Tubbo."

"Technoblade?"

"I'll make this as painless and colorful as possible."

BANG!

Then he released the fireworks. But not at Tubbo, like everyone expected. No. Last second, he turned and aimed his crossbow at Schlatt. Everyone gasped.

The fireworks had burned the majority of Schlatt's body. But, unfortunately, he wasn't dead. Due to Techno being a little sloppy with his last minutes turn, he managed to hit the wall behind him more than he hit Schlatt. Schlatt was unconscious though and was Quackity trying to see if he's alive.

Some of the firework had hit Tubbo and burned his right cheek, but aside from that, Tubbo is fine. Sally smiled and pearled over to Technoblade, who kicked the cage off Tubbo.

Tubbo hugged him and whispered "Thank you, big bro." Techno merely patted his head and said "Yeah sure. Don't call me that." Techno was mentally thanking the voices for being helpful for once.

Sally pearled over to them and said "Let's go!" Then all three of them jumped off the podium and made a mad run for it. Some people followed them and shot some arrows at them but they all missed. At some point, Tommy turned up and gave Tubbo a Invisibility Potion, Tommy already had his own. They both drank their potions "Go to Pogtopia!" Sally yelled at them.

Her and Techno continued to run when she remembered something... Or someone. "Niki!" She yelled in realization. She halted and Techno looked back at her with a confused expression. "Go to Pogtopia. I'll be back once I get Niki!" He nodded and continued running forward while Sally was running back to the podium.

She splashed an Invisibility Potion at herself as she got closer to the podium. "Niki!" She whisper-yelled when she finally got to the girl. "S-Sally? Where are you?" She asked in a low voice. "I'm right in front of you. I'm taking you to Pogtopia." Niki was confused "I thought Wilbur said that there weren't enough resources." I shook my head "That is a complete fucking lie." Then she grabbed her best friend's hand and started running away.

Some people noticed that Niki was being dragged away by an Invisible person and yelled her name. She never looked back.

As the two women were running back to Pogtopia they came across Wilbur. At this point, Sally's Invis had run out. "Wilbur what happened to blowing it all up?" Sally asked. "W-What?" Sally sighed and explained to Niki. "He was going to blow up Manberg."

Then Sally looked back at Wilbur "Wilby, why didn't you push the button?" "I couldn't find it! It was gone! Where's Tommy, Tubbo, and Techno?" The brunette brit asked. "They're probably back in Pogtopia." Wilbur nodded. "Then we should get going."

Once they got back to Pogtopia, they found Tommy and Techno arguing.

"YOU HURT TUBBO!"

"I was aiming for Schlatt! I-"

"What the hell is happening here?" Sally asked sternly. "He hurt Tubbo!" Tommy pointed a finger at Techno. "Tommy, anyone with eyes would've seen that I was CLEARLY aiming for Schlatt!"

Sally sighed in frustration. She doe not have the energy to deal with Tommy's shit at the moment. "Tommy, why the hell are you even mad? I think you'd rather have Tubbo injured than dead."

"I'd rather have Tubbo unhurt! If he'd just been less sloppy and careless then maybe-"

"Tommy, EVERYONE MAKES MISTAKES!" Everyone was stunned by the sudden outburst. Sally sighed and lowered her voice. "Can you just thank Techno that he didn't kill Tubbo?" She asked him.

He just glared at Techno

"No." Was his answer. "He hurt Tubbo." Sally was beyond frustrated at this point "THEN WHAT DID YOU WANT HIM TO DO?! KILL HIM?!" Again, everyone was taken aback.

Sally sighed and said "I don't have the energy to deal with this, Tommy. I'm going to bed." She said before she went to her room and slammed the door.
