TW for chapter: mentioning blood, breaking bones, death, blood, self blame

"WHAT THE F*CK. WHO IN THE WORLD PUTS SPAGHETTI IN THEIR CEREAL" Tommy yelled, "taste it, it's good" Ranboo encouraged.

"You say that as if your giving me drugs" Tommy pouted, "what-?"

"RANBOOOO I DIDNT KNOW YOU WERE A DRUG DEALER" He yelled, "AND THE SPAGHETTI ISNT EVEN COOKED AND THE CEREAL DOESNT HAVE MILK, IT'S JUST F*CKING WATER" Tommy complained.

"The cereal perfectly fine, and hey! I love this, this is practically a delicacy!" Ranboo yelled. "I'm telling Tubbooooo!" Tommy said, dragging out the bo part.

Ranboo mouth dropped, "that's not fair! I got stuck with watching you! You can't tell on me!" he argued, "plus Tubbo like my cereal, you just always take him alway" he said sadly.

"What ever makes you sleep at night Ranboob" Tommy laughed, "I'm going out for Patrol" he said putting on his gear. It was new, Tubbo had done his techy magic and upgraded his suit.

He now wore a red jacket, Tuboo said that it should be Bulletproof but he wouldn't know till it was tested. There was several hand made bombs hidden in his jacket, pants, and shoes.

He wore his mask, it was untouched. He never let anyone touch it, and always wore it out in public. It kept his brother with him, and that all Tommy wanted.

He tucked in his wings, they were for emergencies only. When he was little, he didn't know he was an avian or a hybrid for that matter.

They came in when he was 14, there was so much blood. He cried, unable to scream from the overwhelming pain. Tubbo and Ranboo could only do so much, and Tommy layed in bed for days.

He passed out from pain, just by sitting up. But that was then.

"Hey! And your not aloud on patrol!" Ranboo said, "to late!" Tommy yelled running out of window.

He climbed up the wall onto the roof, first walking over another few roofs before climbing back down. He watched up high, where he lived was more abandoned and crime was higher than the moon.

He made his way to his first post staying there for a few minutes before moving to the next one.

It was the 3rd hour and all was going well, it was probably 12 right now. So he had 2 and a half hour till he was done, as long as the day went how it was going it would be a good day.

Though it is suprising that there is no crime. Every inch of his body yelled danger at him, telling him to run and hide. He took a breath and held down a button on his ear piece. He wasnt walking into a death trap without any direction.

Silence came the longer he held the button down, "Tubbo??"
Interview. Right.

Looks like he's walking blind into a death trap. He trailed off his post, quickly moving as to not get caught.

Suddenly the Building beneath him shook, he quickly slid off. Tommy breath was fast and ridgid, screams were heard. He saw buildings fall, what was happening!??!

Hundreds layed dead on the floor, each bloody and burnt. Flames scattered the ground, Tommy's eyes widened as he looked behind him.

People ran, screaming trying to hide it outrun what ever this thing was. Citizens crashed into him, he got up quickly before being brought back down to the ground.

Tommy stood frozen, why'd he be so persist on leaving. Why couldn't he have stayed. Please... I don't want to watch this anymore...

No one was here to save him this time. Tommy got up once more and let his instinct control him, no blood ran though his veins. Only fear.

People were being crushed by unstable buildings, "THESEUS" a voice yelled. "Bee? Mystique?" Tommy questioned, when did his chest start to hurt? He looked up and saw them, Hepahaestus and Melatonin. That was not his friends.

Tommy got up, and grabbed a his dagger. He deserved this, but he was not going to give up. His brother was never like that and he wont be either.

He gripped the handle, he would win. Hepahaestus and Melatonin would have no chance. Melatonin ran at him, Tommy swiftly dodged and stabbed him behide the neck.

Ha. This would be easy, he wouldn't even have to use his abilitys. Tubbo and Ranboo ran in, Tubbo held a bow while Ranboo had a dagger like him. He smiled, no shot at all.

Hepahaestus didnt move, instead brung in bright flames. "I'm not scared." Tommy yelled, Hepahaestus smiled "you should be"

Tubbo fell to the ground, Melatonin had not died. Tommy got the back of his neck, only a small scratch was there. Tommy's eyes widened, Hepahaestus grabbed Ranboo.

It all had happened in seconds before Tommy could even react. "Now, you will give your self up. And we wont kill them" Hepahaestus said, an insane smile taking over his face.

Tubbo struggled to get out, Tommy knew Hepahaestus and Melatonin were dangerous. And he fell right into their trap. "Now Theseus." Hepahaestus sternly said, Tommy looked to his two best friends.

So soon?
Already?
He was only into the 5th chapter?

Tommy dropped his dagger, head down he walked. He was not dumb, he grabbed a bomb Tubbo had made for him.

Slowly he put up his hand and saluted, Ranboos eyes glistened but gave a small nod.

His fingers tranced the out line of the small bomb, it would kill him. And everyone in this building, but at this point? He caused more problems that he solved. Please.. he's dead....

He flipped the handle, dropped it and ran. Maybe he could still save Ranboo and Tubbo if he could he heal them somehow. The chance was little to none but he could only hope.

Hopefully their suit would protect them, they were designed to. But they were never fully tested.  The radioactive bomb took no time and blew. Tommy was flung into a glass desk, it shattered.

For once he wished that the hero's were here. The blasted knocked him out, a stab wound he couldn't recall getting sent pain through out his body. Glass shards imbeded in his skin, he couldn't breathe.

"Tubbo, Ranboo.." he thought, all that rung through his mind was that they were hurt. He picked up his body, ignoring the pain. They were hurt.

He turned, he only made about 2 meters before it went off. Stupid furniture store. Their hurt.

He tried to run but black spots filled his vision before he could even take a few steps. Falling immediately, his suit was destroyed from the blast. His body barely spared but he lived the first part, would he live the next?

Tommy's heart raced as he jumped up tears filling his eyes, Tubbo sat beside him awake. They waited, they waited for Ranboo to wake up. For this to be someing for them to joke about in the future, laugh about how scared they were.

Ranboo didnt wake up, they layed still for hours. Long after there beloved friend had passed away.

Tommy cryed, he hated how much he wanted that dream to be true. But at the same time for it never to happen. He lost his best friend. His brother. All because he wasn't fast enough....
