Wilbur Soot, November 20th, 2020Wilbur really had planned to retire. But here he was, digging the bottom of the podium to make a man-made lake so New L'Manburg can be a floating town. Tubbo and Phil combined are too creative sometimes. As he made sure the hole was 7 blocks deep, Tommy dropped down, carrying two bags in his arms. "What are those?" Wilbur asked, as Tommy handed him one bag. "Niki baked them!" Tommy hummed, as Wilbur opened the bag. A sweet, sugary smell wafted through the air, as Wilbur smiled. "I'll take it she's settle well into her new bakery?" Tommy bit into the cookie, nodding. "Jack's there too. He's apparently moving in with Niki since Schlatt had his little Manifoldland destroyed." Wilbur blinked. "Wait really? I didn't notice."
Tommy scoffed. "Of course you didn't, you were handling your own problems for most of the time we were in Pogtopia." Wilbur chuckled. "Can't deny that. I think I might go back to Pogtopia for a little bit." Tommy hummed. "If that's what you want. Can you also bring some of my stuff back here? Since I need to move them into my old hobbit hole." Wilbur ruffled his hair, as he laughed.
"Alright, you little gremlin." Tommy pushed his hand off his hair, muttering something about leaders and their need to mess with his hair.
Wilbur hummed as he walked to the ravine, humming softly. "Oh? What are you up to, Wilbur?" Dream's voice rang softly behind him, but it was more... echoey. "Dream? Wha- You're not Dream." Wilbur said, as he turned around and faced... Dream? "Since when did you have wings. And a halo? You're not our Dream, are you?" Wilbur asked, as the figure chuckled. "You're so chatty, aren't you Wilbur. No, I'm not that guy. My name is Dream XD. I'm what you guys like to call a god? Like that Callahan." Wilbur blinked. "Oh. Then, what do you need from me?" XD smiled. "Nothing, just wanted to see the ever popular Wilbur Soot." Wilbur chuckled, before the god vanished. "Who was that?" Dream appeared, his mask hanging on his waist.
"No clue. Apparently he just wanted to compliment me." Wilbur hummed. Dream's green eyes stares intensely at him, searching for lies. Wilbur's brown eyes, again, didn't look away, a small smile on his face. "I have nothing to hide, especially to you, Dream." Dream blinked, before he rolled his eyes. "Whatever. What are you doing around here anyways? I thought you and Tommy had moved back into L'Manburg?" Dream asked, as he followed the taller brunet into the hidden ravine, now emptied and cleared up.
"We did, I'm just picking up some stuff that's leftover." Wilbur hummed, as he walked into his old room, checking the chests and drawers for important stuff. "Are you just going to leave this behind?" Dream asked, as he picked up a book titled 'Independence'. "Ah. Just leave it, it's from Old L'Manburg." Wilbur said, as he stored some diamonds and Netherite ingots into his inventory. Dream stared at the book, before shrugging and placed the book back into the drawer. "Come on, Tommy said to pick up his leftovers as well." Wilbur pulled the sleeve of Dream's hoodie, as he entered Tommy's cluttered room. "What kind of leftovers do you think these are?" Dream asked, as he picked up two books from a drawer.
"Ah, How To Sex 1 and 2. He was the one to write those. To teach the world and girls how to have sex, he said." Dream blinked, before shaking his head and handing the books to Wilbur. "Thanks." Wilbur hummed, before he closed his inventory. "Come on, I'm pretty sure the rest of his little clutter aren't that important." Dream nodded, as he followed him back out of the ravine. "Thanks. What were you doing around here anyways?" Wilbur asked, as Dream smiled a little. "Just passing by, before I saw you talking to that person." Wilbur chuckled. "Ah, ok then. Are you off?" Dream nodded, before he disappeared in a puff of purple particles.
"When did he- Nevemind." Wilbur shook his head, walking back to L'Manburg.
Unbeknownst to him, XD was still watching him. "So what are you trying to do, XD?" Dream's voice asked softly. XD turned to his younger brother, a grin hidden by his mask. "Nothing you should worry about." XD said softly, as he ruffled Dream's soft hair. Dream stared at him, before sighing. "Fine. Just don't mess up my SMP that much." Dream said, as XD hummed. "No promises." Dream glared at him as a small warning, before he disappeared. "Stop teleporting so much! You'll exhaust yourself!" XD yelled out, as he heard a small scoff from somewhere north of where he stood. "I won't. I'm not Drista."
XD smiled. "Yeah, you're too nice." XD muttered, before he disappeared.
Wilbur arrived at Tommy's little hobbit hole, knocking softly on the door. "Tommy? I have your stuff!" Wilbur yelled a little, since no one answered the door. "That's odd...?" Wilbur muttered, frowning a little. He opened the door, looking inside. "Tommy?" Wilbur called out, before sighing. "Right then." He took out his Communicator, quickly pinging a message to Tubbo, Phil, Techno and Quackity.
Have any of you guys seen Tommy? He's not at home.
He's not with me. -Tubbo
Yeah, he's not with us. I'm helping Phil gather resources for L'Manburg. -Techno
He's not with me either, I'm with Fundy and Niki in the Nether gathering quartz and debris. -Quackity.
Wilbur grew worried. He closed the messages and opened his little messages with Tommy.
You whispered to Tommyinnit: Tom where are you?
He stared at his screen, hoping to see the little grey dot next to the teen's face turn green to show activity, but it never changed colour. He's never not answered my messages, or not even checking on it. He thought quietly, before tightening his grip on his sword. Where is he? He thought quietly, walking out of the house.
WilburSoot: Guys, we have a problem.
