《 The Elusive Dream 》DWTxOC

VII. Kidnapped

Ranboo didn't know what to do. He heard the shouting and followed it to the source. He saw two people looking up at an alley wall. Ranboo followed their gaze up and saw the familiar face of Dream climbing up the old fire escape.

Tip had told him about the hunters that were hunting Dream and he assumed they were the ones as they were calling up at him. One was clutching a compass but he thought nothing of it. Ranboo threw an Enderpearl up to the roof from his never ending supply of them. He wanted to make sure Dream was okay.

Once the pearl brought him to the roof he looked around for Dream who was on the other side of the alley on the building that was slightly shorter than the one Ranboo had teleported on to. Ranboo saw a tall man holding an axe to Dream's neck.

Dream was wide-eyed as the man brought a cloth to Dream's nose. Ranboo watched as Dream struggled to get the cloth away from him. Ranboo didn't think he could take the tall pig-man and he had left his crossbow at Wilbur's house. He tried to think of what to do as the man held tightly to Dream to keep him from moving. Soon Dream's struggles stopped as he fell limp into the man's arms. The pig-man looked up and connected eyes with Ranboo on the taller building.

Ranboo gulped as he glared at him from the other side of the alley. Ranboo stepped back before throwing another pearl. He had to tell the others. He raced back to the house and found Tip sleeping on the sofa. "⏁⟟⌿! ⏁⟟⌿! ⎅⍀⟒⏃⋔! ⊑⟒! ⏁⏃☍⟒⋏!" Ranboo shook her awake. (Tip! Tip! Dream! He! Taken!)

"What? Huh? Slow down Ranboo." She said, groggily.

Ranboo had woken up Tommy, Tubbo, and Purpled, "What the fuck man? Why are you bein' so loud?" Tommy grumbled.

"⎅⍀⟒⏃⋔ ⍙⏃⌇ ⏁⏃☍⟒⋏ ⏚⊬ ⏁⊑⍀⟒⟒ ⋔⟒⋏. ⟟ ⎅⍜⋏'⏁ ☍⋏⍜⍙ ⍙⊑⍜ ⏁⊑⟒⊬ ⏃⍀⟒." (Dream was taken by three men. I don't know who they are) Ranboo said after a deep breath.

Tip gasped, "Did any of these men have white glowing eyes or a blue shirt?"

Ranboo recalled the two men yelling up at Dream and he nodded, "⏁⊑⟒⍀⟒ ⍙⏃⌇ ⏃⌰⌇⍜ ⏃⋏⍜⏁⊑⟒⍀ ⍙⟟⏁⊑ ⏃ ☊⏃⌿⟒ ⏃⋏⎅ ☊⍀⍜⍙⋏. ⊑⟒ ⌰⍜⍜☍⟒⎅ ⌰⟟☍⟒ ⌿⟟☌-⋔⏃⋏." (There was also another with a cape and crown. He looked like a pig-man)

"Shit. That is Technoblade." Tip grumbled.

"Techno? He is here?" Tommy asked excitedly.

"And he has Dream?" Tubbo asked. Ranboo nodded.

"Tommy, Purpled, go get your brothers and Niki. They will kill him if we don't hurry." Tip ordered the boys.

They nodded and ran up the stairs. It wasn't long until Wilbur, Nihachu, and Punz all came down the stairs. "Techno is here?" Wilbur asked.

"Yeah and he has Dream." Tip answered.

"What do we do?" Nihachu asked.

"We go save Dream right?" Purpled asked Wilbur.

"Of course. He is not at fault. We know that." Wilbur agreed, "In fact I think I know where he is."

-

Dream opened his eyes. He was dizzy and confused so he closed them as an attempt to make the world stop spinning. He felt tight ropes tied around his wrists once more. He opened his eyes again and saw his ankles were bound as well.

Dream waited for his eyes to clear before trying to make out where he was. He sat on a wooden floor with old looking wood paneling for walls. There was a wooden door across from him with a rusty doorknob. It smelt of damp and rotting wood. There was a window on his left with foggy glass. The room was dark except for the silver moonlight that was feeding in through the window.
