  After comforting Dream and assuring everything is still under his control, you start to advise him on what to do next. 'Dream, there's no need to panic. In fact, we should celebrate,' You tell him. He seems confused and asks why we should celebrate. You laugh and begin to elaborate and tell him the plan you made for him.

  'Well, you see, Dream. You still want those discs, right?' Dream nods in silence while listening to you. 'If so, then this is the perfect chance to not only take them but also have Tommy give them up willingly.' Dream seems interested in where this is going. 'If Tommy and his friends care so much about this 'country' of theirs, they would do anything for it, won't they?'

  'So, if you and the others start a war against that country, you will surely win as they should have members who think they are on the wrong side and give you information and help. If you win, the country may be disbanded and Tommy will feel guilty because he knows if he gives you the discs, you may let them have their country. So...' Dream start to understand what you are saying.

  'So, I will have the discs and I can destroy their country later,' He says with a smile on his face. He seems delighted from your advice and gives you a thank-you hug. '(Y/N), thank you for telling me this. You are a great help, I was so sure this server can't be saved but luckily you are here.' You laugh, happy that you help your friends. You pat him on the back and tell him that it is not a big deal because it wasn't a complete plan anyways. Plus, he could have thought of it himself. He seems to disagree but bites back his comment.

  'Still, thank you for everything. I will go and plan out the whole thing, I will see you when I am done planning,' Dream takes off his mask and gives you a closed-eyed smile. You feel your heart beating and your heart feels warm. This makes any amount of effort worth it, as long as he is happy, you are happy. Dream however has to leave now to start planning the whole thing out.

Timeskip

  You hear that Wilbur wrote the Declaration of Independance and Dream wrote the Declaration of War. Dream has also sent a message according to him which states that they will be at a merciless war if they don't surrender and they have set up walls and TNT cannons around their land. While you personally hoped it wouldn't come to this, you knew from the start that this is inevitable and can only pity the people of L'manberg. 

  You actually do agree with Wilbur that not giving them freedom is wrong and you do think that Wilbur is actually a pretty nice person but your friendship with Dream comes first. Since you aren't good at combat and you don't want to involve yourself in war unnecessarily, you decided against joining either side and Dream agrees with your decision as long as you don't supply or help either side of the war. 

  Dream trusting you tells you that Eret is the traitor of L'manberg and will help them win the war. You although supporting Dream, think that traitors are the worst as you value loyalty a lot. You hesitate, wanting to warn L'manberg but decide against it as telling them will be betraying Dream, your only friend.

  You are lying on your bed when Dream messages you telling you the war and battles will be starting. Despite not wanting to intervene, you decide to watch them instead. Because you already stated your neutrality officially, you are not scared that they will attack you. Anyone who attempts to will be punished and most likely targeted by Dream and the others.

  You get near the L'manberg's walls and watch as they get shot at and flee. You trail behind them leisurely while they hurry to Tommy's house. They cower while Dream and his army are on a tower firing down at them. They seem to contemplate running away but Wilbur refuses and claims that they should at least try to attack first.

  After them running out and firing wildly, Dream leads the army to retreat in the direction of Ponk's tower. Wilbur notices this and Tubbo suggests heading to Punz's tower as they are of similar height. Dream and his army, however, stay at the base of the tower and are unable to shoot at Tommy's army, Tommy's army however is the exact opposite. Dream shortly after realizes this and starts retreating.

  You know that Dream should be starting his plan of ambush soon. Dream lowered L'manburg's guard by losing the two battles. With the fresh victories, Wilbur should be lured into a false sense of security, and with Eret Dream would surely plan a way to trap and kill the people of L'manberg. Dream didn't tell you this but since you know him so well, you know exactly what he will be doing. Dream although is good at combat, is also a man of strategies.

  You follow Wilbur silently as they go back to their land. Eret then leads them to a room they made, saying that he has stored supplies for them. You don't trust her words and believe that Dream and his army are in there waiting. You wait outside in order to not intrude on them. The screams of terror and disbelief prove your suspicion.

  Wilbur without any items unarmed attempts to negotiate with Dream. You stay close enough to hear them but far enough for them to not notice. Dream tells him that they need to surrender and admit they don't have an independent land. Dream then threatens to blow up L'manberg but Wilbur doesn't believe him. You know Dream doesn't bluff about things like these.

Author's note: Sorry for leaving it here but it is a night before school for me so I will write more later.
