TW: Angst, screaming, hints of abuse, drinking/ drunk (it's Schlatt), mentions of death

Please read carefully <3

The weekend had been very busy and filled with goodbyes. Puffy left and promised that she'd be back, most likely to ally with Dream if war erupted. Technoblade had left before I had the chance to talk to him, but Bad had told me he would return tomorrow. 

Unfortunately, a heartfelt goodbye came with a rage-filled hello. Schlatt arrived the next morning. 

Dream had us all come out and see him in. Callahan, Bad, and I were at the back, watching from behind. Sapnap, George, and Dream were waiting by the entrance. Niki was lingering behind the three of them. 

"Why hello Dream" Schlatt greeted, looking surprisingly sober for once. I gritted my teeth, tightening the grip I had on a dagger I had my hand on. Niki took a small step back when she saw Schlatt approach them. I longed to run to her, but Dream had told us to stay hidden. 

"Schlatt," Dream greeted back, nodding. Schlatt grinned, and when the stupid, arrogant, dead smile showed up onto his miserable face, I knew he wasn't sober. I stepped back, sighing. 

Unbelievable. I wouldn't go near him, not if Dream begged. Bad tossed me a side glance. I ignored his concern, honing in on Schlatt. 

He and Dream were walking up the stairs. George and Sapnap were walking behind them, looking very unimpressed. Schlatt and Dream reached us. 

Schlatt's glossy eyes peered over at me. His tanned face twisted into a smirk. 

"Hello" he greeted, dragging out the o. He took a step towards me. I stepped back, furious. 

"Stay the fuck away from me," I spat. Schlatt laughed. I pushed past him. I didn't care what Dream told me to do, there would be no chance in hell that I would stand and watch the sick bastard. I went to the arena. 

I took off my cloak but kept my mask on. There was a machine, it was very advanced and not many were made, that Dream and showed me and the guards when we wanted to practice alone. 

The machine replicated that of a human and you could change the difficulty level. I cranked the knob to the maximum, itching to punch something.  The machine's gear whirled and a beep signaled the start. 

The machine sends out poles attached with springs that punch and you had to deflect its hits. It was fairly easy, but it helped blow off steam. I sighed as I dodged one of the poles.

"Freya," someone said from behind me. I suppressed a groan, I was not in the mood. I turned off the machine, barely affected by it. 

It was Sapnap. 

"What" I inquired, crossing my arms to face him. Sapnap's normally happy facade was replaced with a worried and anxious one. 

"What was that back there?" he asked. I shook my head. 

"Nothing," I lied, unable to meet his gaze. Sapnap looked unconvinced. He crossed his arms. 

"What did he do?" he asked. I knew who he meant. I hugged myself, pulling my arms close to me. "Did you do something?" he asked, when I didn't reply. 

I recoiled, suddenly defensive. 

"I didn't do shit," I hissed. Sapnap raised his hands in surrender. 

"How do you even know Schlatt?" he asked. I glowered at the floor. 

"He was friends with my parents" I mumbled. Sapnap softened. 

"Freya, what did he do?" he asked again. I shook my head yet again. 

"I don't want to talk about it," I told him quietly. 

"That's okay, I'm sorry if I pushed too far, I won't ask until you're ready to tell me," Sapnap apologized and reassured. 

"Schlatt's a bad man Nick, he causes pain and destroys people" I stated, clenching my fists. 

Sapnap extended an arm towards me. He pulled me to his chest, resting his chin on my head.

"Don't worry about him, he won't do anything, not if I can help it" he promised. I nodded.

"Thank you," I murmured. Sapnap squeezed my shoulder. 

"No worries Ly, c'mon let's go to the dining hall," he suggested. I sighed. "Dream's not mad," Sapnap told me. I shrugged, following him. 

Sapnap opened the doors to the dining hall. Niki was the first to see me. She all but knocked over Callahan as she rushed to me. 

"Lycoris," she breathed out, hugging me. I hugged her back. Niki was also a victim of Schlatt's evil ways. Schlatt had killed Niki's father, having drunk one too many beers and attacking a civilian. Niki didn't like talking about her parents, but I knew that she might hate Schlatt more than I did. She'd gotten over her father's death, she had been able to say a final goodbye after all. 

Schlatt might not have even recognized Niki. He had killed a person's father and didn't even have the audacity to remember them. I glared at the man, just by thinking about it. Niki took my arm, pulling me to where George, Callahan, and Bad were standing.

"Is everything okay?" George asked. I nodded. 

Niki, despite her kind and loving personality, was narrow-eyed as she stared at Schlatt. She must be seething.

"I do not think I can stand just breathing the same air as him," Niki muttered. Sapnap looked at Niki, alarmed. 

"Woah, where did that come from," he said quietly. Niki gave him a quick smile, but then returned to glowering at the bearded man.  Schlatt laughed loudly at something, Dream's mouth was upturned, but he looked more amused than humored. I scrunched my face at him, disgusted. 

"Do the three of you have a history or something?" Bad asked, looking between Niki, Schlatt, and me. Niki pursed her lips, crossing her arms. 

"Or something," I retorted sighing. 

Bad dropped the subject, seeing the distaste on both of our faces. From the table, Dream's face, still masked looked at me. He gave me a subtle smile, I didn't smile back, just nodded.

What was Dream doing with Schlatt? 

I guessed it was business, but I wasn't too sure. 

I looked to George, whose glasses were in the process of being wiped. 

"Why is he here?" I asked him. Geroge looked up, placing his while glasses back onto his face. 

"He and Dream are in the process of planning," George replied. I raise a brow. 

"What the bloody fuck does Schlatt have that Dream wants?" I demanded, frowning. George shrugged. 

"They have an alliance, I believe the two of them are planning to act upon it" he replied. 

A/N- Hello hello, how has everyone been? My school situation is a bit confusing at the moment, but it can go two ways, I will be able to update many times a week, or I won't be able to update more than once. Please comment and vote if you enjoyed <3
