12 days before Christmas

I woke up with terrible back pain. I guess it was because of the stretcher I had gotten up from, and now I had to get used to my new bed. I wasn't complaining, on the contrary, it was as soft as cotton candy.

I got out of bed and headed for the kitchen, seeing if there was any food. Surprisingly there were a few boxes of cereal, crackers and some fruit. I grabbed a box of cereal and headed to the fridge to grab a carton of milk, the fridge was full, they were really waiting for me.

I mixed it up and reached for the spoons, but then I heard something behind me, one of the chairs moved, and then I could see him again.

"Hey Schlatt, what brings you here" I asked focusing my attention again looking for the spoons.

"Heyyy George! I was just dropping by to see what you were up to, being a ghost is really exhausting, and more so when I'm tied to you" Schlatt sounded with a hint of hatred and sadness, but also amusement. "You wouldn't happen to have any wine lying around?"

"Actually yes" Earlier in one of the cupboards I noticed a bottle of whiskey, so I went back to the cupboard picked it up and handed it to Schlatt, I also gave him a glass, he mumbled a small thank you and started drinking.

"You know, you could get used to this" Said the man.

"It's very nice, and everything you want....but it's not my home, and just the thought of people thinking I'm dead makes my skin crawl."

"Well, you broke the barrier holding them prisoner, if they're going to get out, they can't leave you here" Schlatt was quite right. "By the way, have you thought about getting a haircut?"

"I really don't know, I like the way it looks" I sat col Schlatt and started eating my cereal. "I can do a ponytail."

"You look like a girl"

"Yeah."

The two of us talked for an hour and a half about the opportunities this place would give us. It wasn't a bad idea, I could gain people's trust to see that I was responsible for getting out of this place.

On the other hand, I was anxious to see my family, including Sapnap and Dream. I really missed them, and to think that Tubbo thinks I'm dead makes me sad, I promise I'll be back.

I finished eating and washed the cereal bowl. And then someone knocked on the door.

"Hey George, are you awake?" The voice sounded familiar, it was Fundy.

Schlatt looked at me and got up, he stood in front of the door and waited for me, I went and opened the door.

"Hey George, how are you feeling, how do you like staying here?" Fundy asked, I could see his nerves.

"Yes! I really like it, the bed is very comfortable" I said smiling.

"I'm going for a walk" Schlatt said, I looked at him and he overtook Fundy and took off down the street down the tunnel.

"George?" Fundy said.

"Oh yeah, hey, do I have to do anything today? Like work or something?" I said confused.

"Actually, I'll come by tomorrow to give you directions, today you can meet the local residents, some of them are looking forward to seeing you" Fundy smiled at me and pointed. "Remember about the botanical room I showed you the other day? Well there's a girl who can give you a tour of the base."

"Thanks Fundy, I really appreciate it, then I'll be filled up for there."

"You should change first, you haven't changed since yesterday, give yourself a bliss if you want too" With that, Fundy said goodbye with a smile.
