Hanging in there - A DDLC X DSMP CROSSOVER

Chapter 14 - Recruitments

Sayori POV

The election is in one and a half days! We still haven't really got any recruitments yet, and we're beginning to panic. I'm really worried and confused. The declaration from Quackity made things 100 times more difficult. And it was all my fault! Tommy and Tubbo tried to tell me it wasn't, but I knew. Wilbur knew. I run in a hurry, zooming past buildings. Tubbo, Tommy and Wilbur were in a debate against Quackity and George. While I was idling, Quackity had managed to recruit George. Things were not looking well. To my dismay, I realised I had run directly into Eret's  castle. Me and Eret hadn't talked since the war. We both went our separate ways. Before I knew it, I had walked right into his throne room. Ever since he betrayed us, Dream made him king of well... everything. It was a horrible feeling, to be betrayed for power. Why anyone would do that, I will never understand. "Sayori...?" Crap. I had stumbled in on Eret. Should I ignore him? No. I need to be nice, but make him understand we will never be friends again. "Oh! Um... Hi? How are things going in your... castle? I spat the word. I didn't mean to sound so mean, but betrayal has an effect on you.

Eret looks genuinely surprised. "Are you here for something?" "No." I turn and walk away. "Are you here to kill my dog?" Eret calls after me. I turn, "Why would I want to kill Pog the dog? I'm not that mean." "Oh-uh-sorry! I didn't mean to call you mean or anything! It's just Fundy wanted to, and since your good friends with him..." Somehow, this made me angry, "Don't you DARE say that Fundy is a murderer. Even if he was, he would have good reason to! And that's rich coming from you, a BETRAYER!" Eret looks as though he just got slapped. "I-I..." "No, I'm sorry. I'll leave now." I feel a bit ashamed I acted that way. I walk away, and through the corner of my eye, Eret really does look sorry. I keep it in mind next time I see him.

"POG?!"

"Yeah, it's the Politicians Of Gaming! Kinda cool, huh Sayori?"

"Ok, but, you still haven't told me what happened!"

"Sayori,... I'm really glad you didn't come."

"Why not? I could of helped."

"It turned from a debate to a massacre. From both sides!"

"WOAH! And Tubbo? Karl? I thought they were there to stop this kinda thing from happening!"

"Try telling that to big Q"

I feel guilty. I haven't exactly told Tommy and Wilbur, but I didn't really want to be a part of the election anymore. It felt... wrong. People should be helping one another, not be battling for power. I decided to tell them first thing in the morning. Yeah. What could go wrong? Except betraying their trust in me....
