All 4 of us sat in our seats, our nicknames hidden behind us. Techno sat beside me and then Phil on his other side, Niki on the other side of myself.

"So your probably wondering why I gathered you here today, as you can see, more of our members are missing than usual...and ill get to that later. Anyway, you guys know that giant prison that was built last year, that Dream's just been wasting away in and I was actually locked away in for 3 months because...Phil cant read." Techno explained and locked eyes with Phil towards the end.

I chuckled and Phil awkwardly looked down at the ground. He put a finger under is collar and tugged at it, emphasising how bad and awkward the situation was for him.

"Yeah so im breaking into that prison today." Techno finalized. I watched as Niki and Phil looked surprised, "Yeah so im breaking Dream out, I sort of owe him a favour. He sort of saved my life when I was getting executed by L'Manburg, and I pay my debts. However, there's been uh....there's been a development that I felt was probably relevant to us. Uhhh, yesterday I saw Ranboo get taken into the jail."

"Oh no." Phil said with a frown as he directed all of his attention to Techno.

"And he uhh, hasn't come out." Techno finished. I was really confused about the Ranboo situation. He wasn't a bad person, and Sam wouldn't want anyone close to Dream right? Unless, Ranboo had done something wrong? Maybe he was ender-walking and said something suspicious to Sam or hurt Sam?

"We think he's been taken to jail. Techno went to look for the stasis pearl but it was gone." I explained as Phil went behind Ranboo's chair and looked at the Stasis Chamber to check, "Two possibilities, Ranboo is either dead or he forgot to put one there in the first place."

"Im going to say he probably forgot." Phil said as he sat back down and looked around at everyone. Techno and Niki agreed, I mean, we knew he had some memory issues so it was the likely option. Plus, who the hell would want to willingly stay in jail?

"Yeah so Ranboo's in prison, that's a thing and I was thinking. Im breaking Dream out, so im going to break Ranboo out at the same time and I wanted to know if you guys wanted to come help me...help bust one of our fellow members out of jail?" Techno asked, I knew the question wasn't directed at me so I looked at Niki and Phil for their answers.

"Of course!"

"Yeah! But we need a plan..." Phil said.

"Well, I have a lot of plans...I didn't really prepare them head of time..." Techno said as he got up from his seat. Everyone followed his lead and exited the syndicate room. The ice came into view and the boats were already placed down, I climbed in behind Techno and I used the sword to turn our boat into a new lane on the ice. It took us under the 'planning room' but to get there we needed to trident up through the lava. I grabbed onto Techno tightly as we trident up, the spinning making me sick immediately.

Through the lava was a door way, and I walked in trying to find a seat quickly. The 'Planning room' was just the cave that Techno built in last year and where he used to keep all the withers skulls and such. On the walls were large blueprints of the prison. I looked at them in wonder, distracting my mind from trying not to be sick on the floor.

"So turns out Dream actually built the prison or designed it? I don't know but he had the blue prints and he told me where he buried the blueprints and I got them. Its all great." Techno explained as Niki and Phil looked at each surrounding all and the blue paper which white markings and drawings displaying the prison in detail.

"Which part is Ranboo in?" Niki asked and Techno went on a whole tangent on where they were going to be holding Ranboo and then Dream.

"Oh and also, im not going to be actually taking you guys into the prison with me, im explain this for my ego." We laughed, "see, what I was thinking was, it's too dangerous for all of us to go in. The last time I did that I was stuck in there for 3 months which should have been 3 days...but whatever." Techno said with a direct look at Phil again and we shared some laughs.

"So im going to head in," Techno continued, "you guys are going to be the look-outs alright? I'll find a job for Thora. I have important roles for you guys but if I get locked in the prison, you guys have got to teleport me out. You cant come in after me, if you all get captured then its over."

The others agreed as I sulked in a corner. I was pregnant, and had a slightly sore back but I wasn't uncapable or stupid. I could still get under my armour and I got most definitely still fight. No matter what, I have been and always will be a warrior. I have been fighting since I was like 10 years old – im not going to stop because A MAN thinks im incapable of protecting myself.

Techno told the other two members about the prison alarm and how it might be set off. I didn't pay any attention considering I wasn't supposed to be apart of this mission. Techno said I had a job but it was probably to 'sit at home and be safe'. I wasn't going to listen, and I think a part of him knew that.

As Techno finished explaining, he opened the cave door and we entered the snowy outside. I breathed in the fresh air, the spinning still effecting my head and body lightly. I followed the others as they talked about the stupid plan I couldn't get involved in. Outside of Techno's cabin, there were 5 horses. Im guessing one wasn't for me considering there wouldn't be enough horses if we had Dream and Ranboo joining. I sighed.

"Baby, come here. I have a job for you." Techno said, and I walked over to him out of shot from Niki and Phil.

"I swear, if it's something stupid-"

"Your job is to stay here-"

"Techno no! Im not stupid okay? I know what im doing! At least let me stay with Niki?" I tried to ask but his violent shakes of his head were an obvious no.

"Please Thora, I really cant risk you and the baby getting hurt. Think about it, we're dealing with Dream, lava, Sam and the prison guards, Withers and attention from everyone who walks past." Techno said as he got close to my face and put a soft hand on my shoulder, "You'll feel guilty if the baby gets hurt Thora."

He was right in a way. If the baby got unintentionally hurt then I would feel immensely guilty but I had enough trust in myself and in others that they wouldn't attack me and I wouldn't get hurt by them. If Techno had enough trust in me then we wouldn't have a problem and we would happily make our way to the prison and do our jobs.

"Fine. I'll stay." I lied to him, and he nodded before kissing my forehead softly and then kissing his fingers and placing it on my stomach. I smiled gently, and then watched as the 3 of them rode out of the fence, guiding the other two.

Once they were out of sight, I made my way back into the cabin. I gathered all my armour from the bedroom, it was stashed into a chest and guided it over my stomach as best as I could. Once I was fully armoured up, I made my way into the basement to gather my Netherite sword from Techno's hidden chest. I took out some golden apples and put them into a small pouch on my waist and a totem. I took some potions too just in case anything bad went down.

It had been half an hour of getting ready and finally, I hopped on Zyon who I had equipped with diamond armour to protect him. We rode slowly towards the prison, my duty as a warrior and as a mother was to make this place safer for everyone.

So, was I doing the right thing?
