|Chapter 1|

Dream eventually reached the empire on the mountain, he was limping, in a lot of pain and out of breath. He knew he had opened up some of his wounds from what Quackity had done to him in the prison but he didn't care about that at the moment.

All he cared about was warning Scott about Xornoth and Quackity.

Scott was sat in his secret meeting area, trying to figure out how to deal with Joey and Sausage peacefully, as well as how to get Dream back home safely. He didn't know where "home" was for Dream, but he was determined to help him reach it if it was possible. He didn't want to get kidnapped again, because he knew that if he was, then he was screwed.

"Scott!" Scott heard Dream and, thinking something was wrong, ran out to him, hiding his meeting room from sight.

"Dream?" He asked as soon as he found the green-hooded, mask-wearing boy.

"Quackity! He's here! He's here!!"

"Wha? Quackity?? Is he from your world???"

"YES AND HE'S A VERY BAD PERSON, I KNOW I SAW HIM!"

"Oh. Oh dear. That's not good then."

"IT'S REALLY NOT, SCOTT! AND HE'S WORKING WITH A DEMON!"

"Oh no no no no no. He's working with the demon!?"

"YEAH, HE'S WORKING WITH A DEMON."

"Okay, okay, just get some rest. I'll figure out a way to stop them from getting to us." Dream nodded and went to the room Scott had set up for him, before deciding he wasn't gonna stay there for that long. He knew he would most likely be killed, and that he was very weak and injured beyond belief, but he had to find a way back home.

|MEANWHILE, IN THE DREAM SMP|

Everyone had found out that Dream was gone and was beginning to panic. Sam hadn't slept at all since he found out that Dream actually was gone and not hiding in the tunnel he had been digging.

All he wanted was to get Dream back, safe and sound.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN HE'S NOT IN THE PRISON!?" Technoblade asked, shocked and confused.

"I MEAN EXACTLY WHAT I SAID, HE ESCAPED!"

"HOW, SAM!?" Tommy shouted, and Sam started getting very annoyed with him.

"DON'T GET MAD AT HIM!" Philza yelled.

"HE'S THE WARDEN AND DREAM ESCAPED ON HIS WATCH!"

"THAT'S ENOUGH OUT OF BOTH OF YOU!" Sam was getting pissed, and it was becoming obvious.

"Dream is missing, but he's safe. We'll find him soon." Foolish told the group. He was surprisingly calm, despite the fact that Dream was missing. He also had a mild headache that he was trying not to tell anyone about.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN, HE'S SAFE!?"

"Foolish, why are you so calm about- THERE HE IS!" Tubbo and Tommy both ran at Dream, who turned to face the group, scared half to death.

"NO, WAIT!" Foolish and Sam ran over to guard and calm Dream, who was shaking in terror.

"GET OUT OF THE WAY!"

"DROP YOUR WEAPONS! NOW! OR I'LL MAKE YOU!" Everyone flinched, even Dream, who immediately winced in pain afterwards, and both Tubbo and Tommy dropped their weapons. No one had heard Sam get that mad. Ever.

"I'm dead! I'm dead! He's gonna kill me, I'm dead!"

"What do you mean, Dream?" Wilbur asked, his messy brown hair with a white streak blowing in the wind. "What happened to you?"

"I'm gonna die, I'm sorry, for everything...!" Dream buried his head in Foolish's chest, shaking and crying uncontrollably.

"Shhh..." Foolish and Sam both tried to calm him down, but to no avail.

All of a sudden, the group heard a Scottish voice yell out, "Where am I?"

"... Who was that?" Technoblade went out to find the source of the voice, only to yank an elf into the room. It was Scott, who was confused about everything.

"What the- Who are you people!? Where am I!? Answer me!"
