I'm The Villain This Time!

A New Mask

T.W.: major c!death, blood, vomit

Tommy walked over to the prison. He knew Sam would be there, making sure it was secure before he left it. This was where he would die. At the same place he killed Ranboo.

Sam walked out of the prison slowly. Everything had been locked up now. With Dream gone, there was no reason to keep it open. He sighed softly. Maybe he took the warden too far... He shook his head. Ranboo was helping Dream escape, he had to do it.

Sam looked up to see Tommy walking towards him, "Tommy? What are you doing here?"

The boy shrugged, giving Sam a small, fake, smile, "I'm just here, you know?"

"Uh, yeah." Sam sighed, "listen Tommy, I'm really sorry about what happened to Ranboo-"

"Don't fucking-!" Tommy cut himself off, "I'm not here to talk about that! I'm just..."

Tommy looked up at the prison, "Was there even a security breach when Dream killed me?"

Sam's shoulders dropped and he looked away from Tommy, "there was... I'm sorry Tommy, I didn't want Dream to escape."

"So you decided to let me die instead?" Tommy turned to glare at the creeper-hybrid.

"Dream could have-"

"No." Tommy interrupted, "you easily could have killed Dream if he tried to escape. You could have gotten me out of there!"

"I did what I had to!" Sam yelled.

"You let me die!" Tommy shouted.

"You're a murderer!" Sam screamed.

Tommy flinched back, "so are you. Ranboo was innocent."

"He broke Dream out of prison!" Sam took a step forward, "you want to know who was innocent!? Ponk! Ponk was innocent!"

"Don't fucking come near me." Tommy took a step back, "Ranboo was being mind controlled by Dream! All that Enderwalk shit! He couldn't control it!"

"I didn't know that at the time!" Sam told him.

Tommy pulled out his axe, "and I didn't know you would let me die in the prison!"

Sam was taken by surprise when the netherite blade buried itself deep into his chest. Tommy pulled the axe out and raised it to swing again. But Sam made him pause. The creeper-hybrid was smiling.

"You know..." Sam grabbed his bleeding wound, "When you came up to me, I never would have guessed you were going to kill me. You've made a perfect mask for yourself. It reminded me of Dream."

Tommy felt his breath catch in his lungs. Horror crept up his back as he stared down at same with wide eyes. The axe fell.

Awesamdude was slain by Tommyinnit using [Axe of Peace]

Tommy fell heavily to the ground as Sam's body disappeared. The axe fell to his side, the blood washing off in the rain. He screamed.

Two more death messages came up as Tommy sobbed. He knew what he did. A spawn trap to take the final lives.

He wan not like Dream. Dream was a monster, a murderer, a manipulator-

And now so was Tommy.

The boy felt nauseous at the thought. But he had to do it. The server needed them gone. He needed the gone so everything would be okay.

Tommy fell forward as bile rose up in his throat. It burned his stomach, his throat, his mouth, until it spilled on the ground. He coughed and gasped, tears mixing with the rain on his face. He couldn't breathe.

Tommy felt someone pull him into a hug. He leaned into them as they pet his hair. He heard them talking to another person, only catching snippits of the conversation.

"...burning up..."

"...take him back..?"

"...chno will know..."

Tommy felt the person pick him up on their back. He didn't have the energy to fight it. His body felt too hot and too cold all a the same time. So he simply leaned into it, falling into a restless sleep.
