Niki draped the tarp over the tall fences.

"Tell me again why I have to have a separate tent?" Quackity asked.

"Again, we don't trust you yet."

"We might never trust you." Hannah called from the middle of the campsite.

She rubbed two sticks together, "It's not working!" She whined.

"Niki?" Bad rubbed his eyes, "How long was I out- and where are we?"

"Oh Bad, thank god you're awake! You've been asleep for almost a day and we are in the middle of nowhere because our castle's been destroyed." Niki explained, "Phil and Tommy were kidnapped and we have no idea if either of them are alive."

"Uh, guys, what is that?" Puffy pointed to the falling figure in the sky.

"Someone's falling..." Niki said, "But how are they falling?"

"I can check it out." Quackity volunteered.

"Puffy, you go with him to make sure he isn't reporting to Free SMP." Hannah commanded.

"Alright, fine."

The two pushed through the dense forest finally coming across what had falled.

A boy's bloody body laid on the ground, his expression: shock.

Puffy wiped some of the blood off his face, "T-Tommy?" She stuttered then looked at Quackity.

"But- Technoblade flew by plane or Phil flew them and Tommy accidentally fell." Quackity reckoned.

"We should bring this back to camp." Puffy delicately picked up the body and hauled it over the camp, the corpse painting her clothes a ruby red.

Puffy gulped as she entered the view of Mantopia.

Niki immediately smelled the blood. A scent she reconized from the first revolution- The L'manburg revolution.

"Tommy?" She sputtered.

"I- yeah." She sighed.

"But how?" Niki asked.

"He fell." Quackity observed.

"We'll duh." Niki gazed into Puffy's sorrow-filled eyes.

"I'm gonna go to the river to cool off, see you guys later." Puffy sighed.

Hannah locked eyes with Niki.

"Is she okay?" Hannah mouthed.

"Give her some time alone," Niki responded then went back to tending to Bad's wounds,

"Oww, oww...it stings..." Bad groaned as Niki cleaned Bad's wound.

"If we don't do this, it could get infected, which is much worse that a temporary sting, trust me."

Bad was silent. "Niki, what was it that you guys were talking about out there? Is he really..." He finally spoke.

Niki sighed. "Yes, Bad...Tommy is gone. Again."

"How did he manage that? I thought that Techno would...I thought you-know-who would want him alive, along with Phil, and Will...nevermind, I guess he didn't take Will." Bad puzzled.

"I don't think it was on purpose."

"Well, I know, but I'd think that Techno would have insane safety measures, considering how all-out he goes on pretty much all of his other missions and projects."
