Tubbo watched Tommy carefully as the Syndicate room filled with people. The blonde boy had tucked himself in a corner with Henry, Friend, and a pink sheep named Rosie. Tubbo was worried about him. Well, more accurately he was worried Tommy would jump into danger and get killed.

Michael reached up and gently tugged one of Tubbo's ears. The boy looked down at his son, lifting his slightly higher on his hip. Ranboo wrapped an arm around their shoulders.

Everyone had come to the Syndicate room, some confused, some to protect those they loved. Techno climbed up on the table, standing tall and proud as everyone quieted down. The piglin looked around the room. Phil gave him a small smile.

Techno took a deep breath, "So, uh... Dream escaped..."

"We know!" Skeppy shouted, "everyone heard the sirens! We want to know why we were called here!"

Techno looked down at the diamond humanoid, "because we need a plan. We can't take Dream down unless we're all together. Dream is a mastermind, I know, I've worked with him. It's going to take everyone to take him down."

A trident appeared in Techno's hands, waving though the air in a wide arc, "So everyone get your best gear! I have villager trades in my basement! Tubbo and Sam will lead everyone to the guardian farm so you can level up! Phil and I will train anyone who needs it! Anyone who's free gets supplies! Those who can't fight will stay here! This is the most secure place on the server other than the prison. And even better, Dream doesn't know this place exists."

Techno slammed the end of the trident on the table with a resounding clang, "Now let's bring down Dream once and for all!"

The crowd around him cheered. Old enemies shoulder to shoulder with each other. The air was electric with the will to fight for their server.

"Tommy!" Sapnap walked over to the boy, one arm slung over Quackity's shoulders, "you ready to fight Dream!?"

The blonde boy jumped slightly at the sudden voice, "I'm not fighting..."

Quackity frowned, glancing at his fiance, "why not?"

Tommy hugged Henry a little closer, "I... I'm blind... Techno, Phil, and Wilbur won't let me fight, so I'm staying here."

Sapnap's eyes widened, "you're blind..?

"How?" Quackity asked, "a-and when!?"

Tommy shrugged, "exile... Dream, um, he blew up my home there and the explosion..."

"Since exile..." Sapnap sighed.

"But you seemed perfectly fine during doomsday, a-and when you visited Las Navadas..!" Quackity laughed lightly, "you were blind this whole time..?"

Tommy nodded. Friend placed their head on the boys shoulder. He pet the soft fleece, feeling the eyes of Sapnap and Quackity on him.

"Well, um, you won't be alone here." Sapnap told him, "Karl is staying. So is Niki!"

"I heard." Tommy sighed, "all the kids and animals are staying too. Phil said I'll be taking care of them, but I'm pretty sure he just said that to make me feel better."

Quackity gave the boy a sympathetic look, "at least you'll be safe from Dream."

"Yeah." Tommy leaned his head on Rosie, "after everything he's done, I'm kinda glad for this opportunity. Dreams finally going to get what he deserves. Everything he did to L'manburg, and everyone he betrayed! We're finally going to win!"

Tommy heard hooves walk closer. Moments later, a little body fell into his lap.

Tommy smiled, "hi Michael. Hey Tubbo."

Tubbo laughed, "hey Tommy, how are you holding up?"

"I'm... okay." Tommy shrugged.

"How'd you do that!?" Tommy heard Sapnap gasp.

Tommy grinned in the direction of his voice, "I'm Tommy-fucking-innit!"

Tommy jumped slightly as a chorus of voices laughed. That's when he realized that the entire server had been listening. They were all there, every single one.

"Whatcha crying for boss man?" Tubbo chuckled, nudging his friend.

Tommy wiped his tears on his sleeve, "Its nothing Tubbo."

Tommy felt a rain wrap around him and Tubbo.

"We'll be okay." Ranboo said, for once not scaring Tommy as he sat down.

Tommy smiled softly and nodded. Dream doesn't stand a chance against everyone on the server. Soon, it would all be over.
