~Chapter One~
'Ares?'

~Third Person POV~
Tommy is sitting at the edge of a tall one block pillar he had made with the intentions of dying. 'He was just here to watch me, he didn't care' He sees this cabin in a snowy area in the distance, he scans the area seeing a small lake below him, he jumps allowing himself to fall swiftly and peacefully. He gets out of the water looking around the blown up area he had once lived in, leaving abruptly, sprinting in the direction he had seen the cabin in.
About thirty to fourty minutes later he sees three people in the distance Phil, Ghostbur and Ranboo, he begins running at a normal pace, panting exhuastedly. He immedietly embraces Philza in a hug. Phil was confused on where the young boy had been but couldn't ask because the young boy had started sobbing in his arms not letting go as if his life depended on it. Ranboo looks lost, confused as if he hadn't seen a different emotion come from the younger besides anger and excitement. Philza sighs 'Tom?' Ghostbur asks calmy and sighs as he doesn't get a response 'Here! Take some blue' he says as he holds out some nice blue fabric 'It always helps me' He smiles, Tommy smiles back, weakly. Technoblade walks up from a trip, he immedietly looks concerned with Tommy's expression but hides it, he sighs and takes his cape off putting it around the tired boy picking him up and taking him inside and up the ladder, he places the boy on the bed and tells him to rest. Tommy is laying there inable to sleep, he sighs and gets up climbing down the ladder 'Hey did you have a nice nap' its only been an hour 'Couldn't fall asleep so not really' Phil sighs 'It's alright mate, come and eat your probably hungry' he goes and sits down grabbing bread but not eating it just looking at it, he sighs and puts it down again, 'I'm okay,' Technoblade hands him a golden apple and Tommy sighs knowing he won't get out of eating. Philza smiles proudly as he watches Tommy eat the golden apple slowly but he already looks better then he did when he came down the ladder. Someone bangs on the door, Tommy flinches and hides the food and anything he has on him, Why? Technoblade gets up and walks to the door his hooves hitting the floor softly. He pauses looking at Phil for reassurance, he nods lightly and looks back to Tommy who is climbing up the ladder with fear clear in his actions.
As Technoblade opens the door, Dream is standing patiently waiting. 'Is Tommy here?' he asks, Technoblade stays silent as someone walks towards them from the 'magic' forest, the person seems to begin to gently jog and run up to the door and he smiles at Technoblade 'y-you must be Technoblade' he mumbles 'I'm Ares' he clears his throat 'And you are-'he lookes over at Dream 'The Omeless telletubby I have heard ever so much about-?' Techno lets out a soft laugh as Tommy knocks lightly on the floor making Phil get up and walk to the ladder going up 'Hey what's up' Phil whispers 'That's Ares I met him during exile..he helped me..' Tommy whispers back 'And? what do you want me to do mate' he sighs 'pretend you know him and bring him up here to talk? maybe..' he smiles lightly 'Sure' he climbes back down the ladder and walks to the door 'Ares?' Ares smiles 'Phil!' Technoblade looks confused and Phil smiles. Phil sighs and invite him in and Technoblade mumbles 'Who is he?' Phil sighs again and mouths 'we will talk about it later' he nods and looks over at Dream 'So you homeless telletubby what do you want.' Dream exclaims loudly 'I HAVE A HOUSE!' he sighs 'Is tommy here.' he says sternly Technoblade laughs 'The raccoon, nope he was but I kicked him out, couldn't have a theif in my house' we both hear Ares laugh, I smile lightly 'Technoblade was that a smile I seen?' Techno pauses and looks confused 'Me smile? never' Dream chuckles 'well I have to go find a raccoon If I find out you lied-' Technoblade stops him mid sentence 'I know' Dream walks away getting on his horse, riding away.
~Ares pov!~
When I walk up to the cabin I sigh as I haven't found Tommy yet, I hope he's okay, 'Remember the plan, remember the plan' I whisper to myself as I walk; ~~Flashback~~ Tommy smiles 'There's supposed to be a cabin in the snowy biome in the area near the village we went to awhile ago' he says 'If anything happens check there, The people who live there should be, Technoblade The blood god, and Philza Minecraft The crow father' his smile widens 'So if anything Phil has a green and white hat and a cape kind of thing with a white outline, and if i am there but its dangerous for me to be seen I will send him to talk to you if someone is danger to me he will act as if he knows you.' ~~Flashback over~~ I'm standing beside the telletubby who is looking for him, 'y-you must be technoblade' I mumble remembering him, does he remember me..? 'I'm Ares' I clear my throat 'and you are.. the Omeless telletubby I have heard so much about' Technoblade lets out a soft laugh. Oh! there's Phil, He walks up 'Ares?' He's here, Tommy is here 'Phil!' I say in admiration while looking at Technoblade he looks confused, I nod at him. We begin to walk and we end up going up a ladder Phil walking behind me, I pause when I see Tommy. He runs over and brings me into a tight yet loose hug, mumbling 'I missed you..' I smile lightly hugging him back just as tightly 'I missed you too king' Phil is sitting on the bed when I look up he's gently smiling at me. 'Alright you guys are probably tired you guys should rest, and Tommy?' Tommy lifts his head but doesn't let go 'You are safe here, and now you have Ares who will surely keep you safe in here' I smile lightly and touch Tommy's hair gently playing with it 'No matter what little raccoon I will be here to keep you safe, I found you..w-when I seen Logstedshire I thought you..I thought you died Tom..' he tenses 'Really..?' I nod 'Toby did aswell, he didn't recongnise me though' he nods. Phil pauses and asks 'Toby? as in Tubbo?' I don't reply gently picking Tommy up feeling his breathing soften and even out 'Phil?' I ask looking at him leaving the room, he hums in response 'Do you know the last time he slept?' he shakes his head no and I sigh laying him down getting ready to go and talk to Phil having him cling onto me laughing and laying down mumbling 'It's been awhile since i've properly rested anyways' I sigh letting my thoughts devour my brain well mainly the voices yelling at me to go down and talk to Techno just to see if he remembers me..~~flashback~~ i'm running away from this guy I don't know who he is, he's sprinting after me as I run and hide in the tree's. I stop and look down and a little back to where I think he is and when i don't see him I immedietly turn around looking back into the eyes of the man chasing me 'Hello?' I ask softly not saying anything else 'You almost lost me, but your a kid..why would he want you..' I tense 'Who, who wants me' he pauses 'Go.' he huffs I'm about to leave and I decide to ask 'What's your name?' he tugs at his cape and looks at me 'Technoblade' he says slightly roughly I nod 'I-I'm uh..Ares..' I then run after telling him my name not letting him respond incase he changes his mind and takes me to who ever wanted me. ~~Flashback over~~ I sigh pulling Tom close and closing my eyes. 'I hope he doesn't have a nightmare' I say as I drift off to sleep. ~Phil's pov~ I sigh as I go down the ladder. I recognise that kids name 'Phil? you alright?' I look at him 'I recognise that name, Ares' I sit down and look over at Techno he seems to be thinking a lot I sigh and go to the kitchen making a small meal with potatos, beef and bread for the four people in the house putting two plates in the oven to keep them warm walking out with mine and Techno's plate placing it infront of him, 'Ares..' he says quietly 'Yeah?' I look at him sitting down 'Dream wanted them a few years back, I didn't think he would make it this long..' I sigh 'He's just a kid..so is Tommy' i say before taking a bite of food off my plate. He nods and begins eating as silence washes over us.~A few hours later~ ~Ares's pov~ Tommy awakes swiftly crying lightly from a nightmare, I've been up for a little while, reading. I place my bookmark in my book placing the book down 'Tom..Tom can you breath alright?' he shakes his head lightly I nod 'Can I touch you?' he quickly backs away falling off the bed and I hear swift movement downstairs 'It's alright, you are okay. I'm here Tom, copy my breathing okay..In 1 2 3 4 hold 1 2 3 4 out 1 2 3 4' I don't take my eyes off of him even when i feel the two people enter the room 'Okay Tom love are you feeling any better can you breath, we can repeat if needed.' He nods opening his arms for a hug 'Are you sure?' he nods again. I slowly move close to him, wrapping my arms around him lightly. I look at him 'another nightmare?' he sighs 'yeah' his voice is rough 'it's okay, was it about..him again' he nods and Phil clears his throat and Tommy looks that way swiftly, I chuckle lightly 'Hey Phil, Techno.' I nod. Tommy immedietly puts on a smile, clearly fake 'Heheeyy' I shake my head looking down 'Uh alright well there is food downstairs in the oven and Ares I would like to talk to you about something.' I look up hearing my name and Techno is looking me dead in the eyes and Tom slightly tightens his grip around me and I nod 'Okay we can go for a walk after Tom and I eat, I assume you guys already ate?' he nods and goes down the ladder, Phil following after. I look at Tommy and smile going to move but he didn't let go yet or even loosen his grip 'You alright Tom?' he looks down at me 'yeah but what would the Blade have to say to you?' i nod 'right..I met the blade before..' his facial expression goes from serious to confused and I mumble 'clingyinnit' he sighs still not letting go 'he was chasing me' he loosens his grip nodding for me to continue 'I though I had lost him in the tree's where I normally hide, turns out I hadn't and he had indeed found me, I was scared but obviously tried yet failed to show it. He had told me someone wanted me, and spoke as I was just a child at the time saying I didn't need to go through that and had told me his name, I told him mine and ran cause he had let me go.' I sigh and look at him for a response 'oh..' that's it? 'oh?' I look him dead in the eyes 'we should go eat..' he nods and loosens his grip 'are you comfortable talking to him on your own?' I nod 'Don't worry Tom's I feel I can trust him, he won't hurt me.' I get up offering my hand to Tommy helping him up and walking to the ladder, him following right behind me.
~Tommy's pov~
Why do I feel so clingy and protective of him..I sigh going down the ladder and walking into the kitchen behind him. I see him grabbing both of our plates lightly seasoning them 'Go wait at the table raccoon boy I will be right out with our food' I smile lightly 'And if i didn't?' he laughs lowly and deeply, I laugh putting my hands up in surrender 'alright, alright i'll go sit down big man' he smiled contently. After heating the food again he appeared out of the kitchen smiling and humming as he places our plates down, he sits beside me whispering 'you don't have to eat the whole plate just try a little at a time, alright?' I smile at his consideration as he pokes my nose with his and laughs loudly playing his whispering off as teasing me. I look taken aback and pink I know I do, Phil laughs lightly and Tech walks in confused 'Tom? you alright' he walks up to me quickly 'Tech he's just flustered' he wheezes 'I thought you were fevered again but thank god' I smile lightly 'Uh- I'M NOT FLUSTERED PHIL I AM A BIG MAN' he laughs and Ares smiles lightly 'Yea, yeah big men don't get flustered totally.', he says finishing his food and standing making dead eye contact with Technoblade looking away quickly and walking to wash his dish. My smile falteres slightly.~No pov~ Tommy's smile falters as Ares walks away and Phil seems to notice smiling at the simple response of his savior walking away. Phil looks over as Technoblade walks towards the door his cape on his shoulders simply as Ares walks out of the kitchen smiling at Tom 'See you in a bit Tom' Tommy smiles back 'Be safe' Ares chuckles and mumbles 'softinnit' walking towards the blade in a simple black and red shirt with a pair of ripped black jeans pulling the outfit together with a black pair of shoes slightly worn out from the running and such he has done outside. As they walk out Tommy processes what he had said 'I AM NOT SOFT!' Phil shakes his head and laughs at the simple reaction 'Tommy they are already gone' he frowns 'Still' Phil walks over to Tommy 'How are you Toms'
~Technoblades pov~(this {''} means his voices or chat however you want to see lt;3)
How am I supposed to do this ''oh yeah years ago I chased you down and let you go anyway''
''I have a soft spot for kids-'' ''I doubt you remember me but-'' Ares looks up at him 'So do you remember who I am?' ''great great thats great they remember us'' 'Yeah, yeah I do' He smiles up at me making the voices quiet I sigh and smile back 'I didn't think you would make it this far if i'm honest' he gasps 'How rude blade' I think back to pogtopia and smile thinking of the raccoon that I had helped. I hope exile wasn't so bad, but if it wasn't why is he running..
~Ares's pov~
He looks to be deep in thought. I poke him and he immedietly looks at me and smiles 'Lost in though there blade?' he hears something and looks to the sound 'Dream?' I freeze as Dream walks out with his stupid mask on. He laughs 'Technoblade hanging around a child' I look down 'What phil got ya babysitting?' Techno tenses and sighs 'Nope just fulfilling your wish from years ago' I tense what did he mean 'Oh?' he sighs 'Ares to free Tommy' I wince. He looks shocked with what was coming out of his own mouth, I stare into his soul as he stares into mine 'Deal.' I sigh and walk beside Dream as Technoblade proccesses what he had just done, 'Tell Tom..It was my choice..' he whimpers. The boys reaction was to calm to just having been given away.
~Dreams pov~ (Dream thinks as if he isn't himself and he's looking into someone elses memories maybe he is maybe he isn't who knows) He had just accepted him over Tommy he doesn't even know the kid but he said yes? Why. ''NO!'' "WHY" "BUT TOMMY" 'Alright kiddo let's go.' Ares whimpers 'Okay' the poor kid. We started walking back into the forest he sighs contently and the kid falls to the ground suddenly, he picks him up and procceeds walking without a care ''the damn kid could be hurt and it seems he doesn't care!''

This is very messy and it had no direction it was going in so yeah
