The Rise ~Wilbur x oc~

17

Dream and I looked around the village, he showed me how to trade with them. I had no idea what they were saying but Dream helped out a lot with it. I got some food and some enchanting books, the books went straight into my ender chest. I didn't want to lose those.
"Ready to head off?" Dream asked.
"Yep" I replied putting the chest away.
With that we headed back out.

We were walking for quite a while in the blazing heat before I saw something in the distance.
"Am I hallucinating or is there something there?" I asked glancing at Dream.
"That" Dream looked down at me, "Would be a temple" he said with a grin, "last one there's a loser" he said before racing off.
"Hey! No fair" I called racing after him, "You have longer legs, you're cheating!!"
Dream sat at the temple as he waited for me.
"What's the matter loooooser?" He laughed.
"Oh shut up" I painted leaning on my knees as I caught my breath. Racing in the desert was not the best idea. I followed him in and watched as he killed a creeper. He then covered all the entrances and lit up the room.
"We can stay here tonight, it should be safe" he said and I nodded.
"So, where's this treasure you speak of?" I asked as I looked around seeing nothing really of note. Dream laughed shaking his head.
"It's not up here" he said pulling out a pickaxe, He dug up some of the stone before dropping a torch down in the corner.
"See that stone pressure plate?" He asked pointing down it. I looked down the hole to see your chests and in the centre a stone pressure plate.
"Yeah?" I said looking back at Dream,
"Do not step on it" he said.
"Why...."
"Because its rigged up to some TNT. We don't want to explode, it will destroy the things in the chests as well" he explained.
"Wait you can do that with TNT?" I asked.
"Yeah, its actually really simple" he said and o looked back down the hole,
"So how to we get down?" I asked and Dream started digging around the sides making a staircase down.
"Like this, Do Not fall down" he said. I followed him down and he broke the pressure plate before either of us accidentally stood on it. I started looking through the chests and grabbing things that looked good. Dream dug down and grabbed all the TNT.
"Got everything?" He asked coming back up.
"I think so" I said looking through the chests once more. Dream had a glance through them picking up anything I had missed. I headed back up and put my bed down.
"Did you get some good stuff?" Dream asked.
"I think so, although this Depth strider won't exactly help me" I said with a laugh holding the shiny book, "I think I might give it to Tubbo"
"That would be nice to do" Dream said poking at the potatos in the fire.
We had something to eat and went to bed.

I woke up to the sounds of groaning. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, Dream was still peacefully sleeping in his bed, mask on the floor beside him has he snorted away, although his were bearable compared to George's. I got up and went over to where I heard the growling, no doubt a zombie. I moved of dirt to in fact see the zombie in question. I was about to put the dirt back when a small zombie ran in and started clawing and biting at my legs. I let out a scream trying to run away from it. Dream jumped up,
"What's going on?" He asked before seeing the small undead creature. He pulled out his sword and dealt with it with a few hits. I sat on my bed panting, my heart racing as Dream put some dirt back. "Why did you move the dirt?" He asked sitting down on his.
"I heard noises and I was curious" I said, "I'm sorry I woke you up" I looked down at my lap,
"It's fine" he said rubbing his face. "We should probably start heading back anyway"
"Already?" I asked disappointed that the trip was basically over already.
"For now yes. We can go out again sometime. Maybe a different direction next time so we don't have to go across the desert" he said packing up his things.
"Ok" I replied with a sigh as I gathered up my things.
