30 Years (DSMP)

CHAPTER 39 - Freedom

"What?..."

"You've been gone for only 3 days Tommy, 3 days."

"But... I was there for months... I remember keeping count since I got there... You're... your lying! YOU HAVE TO BE LYING IT HAS TO HAVE BEEN AGES."

"Tommy, it's actually only been 3 days. No one has come yet. Nothing happened. I just bought you back that's all. I don't know how the others are because they haven't cleaned out the prison yet. You can see it for yourself, look." Dream said looking at the entrance that was still blocked. Tommy looked at the entrance and saw it was blocked, looking around everything seemed to be like how he remembered. Had he truly only been gone for 3 days? If so then why did he feel like it was 3 months?

"Dream, I know how long I was in there for. I was there for 3 months. But you're saying I was gone for only 3 days... Do you think time... there... is faster than here?"

"That... is interesting. What was it like?"

"What was- what was what like?"

"Death! Like, you're the only one to have actually died! Then come back to life! Was anyone there? Or was it just you?"

"I-... Wilbur, Wilbur was there and...and..." Tommy remembered everything that happened while he was there.

"Tommy? Who else was there?"

"My mother... She was there..." He turned to Dream and caught him by the shoulders. "Dream, you have to revive her..." Dream gave a small chuckle.

"I can't Tommy."

"YOU B*TCH, YOU CAN YOU JUST REVIVED ME, WHY THE F**K CANT YOU REVIVE HER?"

"Tommy, She's been gone for decades. I can only revive anyone if I have the full body or the spirit and I have none of those. I barely managed to bring you back before you rotted."

"You f**ker, You- YOU CAN REVIVE HER JUST DO IT, YOU CANT HIDE IT EITHER!"

"Tommy, I'm being honest here, I can't revive her unless I have the body or the spirit. Obviously her body is gone and I'm sure her spirit isn't anywhere." Dream said still keeping his cool and trying to stop Tommy from ripping the cloth by his shoulder. Tommy tried to convince himself that Dream was lying and simply not doing it. But he knew that it was true based on what he said.

"No... You can bring her back... can't you?..."

"I can't Tommy, it's too late." Tommy let go of Dream, sighing that the only way for him to see her again was to leave the world. But though he could simply kill himself and go back, Tommy knew with this second chance he had to stay and continue his life on taking the responsibilities at the moment and finally have peace in L, Manburg.

"Then... what about Wilbur?..." He asked hoping that at least he could bring Wilbur back.

"He's spirit is here right? I can do it, but... I didn't say I would did I?" Dream said giving another one of his smiles.

"DREAM YOU F**KING B*TCH, THIS ISNT A REQUEST, THIS IS A DEMAND, YOU REVIVE HIM OR YOUR DEAD."

"Nah, I don't think I want to, even then you can't kill me either remember?" Tommy grabbed onto Dreams collar and was about to punch him when the both of them heard something along the lines of grinding. Looking back they saw the big boulder in front of the bars start to move. Tommy let go of the collar and ran up to the bars and called out.

"HELLO!? TECHNOBLADE, FATHER, IM HERE. WERE STILL HERE!"

"TOMMY!" Tommy heard Technoblade call out. Dream returned back to the bed, knowing that they would get Tommy out and leave him in the broken cell, because why not? Their goal was to let him suffer as much as possible and the broken cell could play a part. He saw the boulder was moved and the broken door was pushed open by one of the guards. Tommy ran out into the arms of Philza and Technoblade standing in the now cleared hallway. He was finally free after all those weeks. Ghostbur and Tubbo was standing behind them and joined in as well but then saw something that he wasn't expecting at all. He saw Tubbo push away from the hug after a while and come inside the cell towards him.

"Dream, you ok? You've been in here for a while...?" Tubbo said sitting on the bed next to Him. Dream looked back outside to see that Tommy and the others had left and that Tubbo and he were the only ones left in the building.

"I'm fine, I don't need anything" He said trying to make Tubbo go away. Now that this issue was over Dream needed to try and find a way to get out. This trap was just made for fun and the sole purpose of torturing who ever got trapped inside with him for a bit of revenge. Tubbo noticed that Dream looked more tired and was swallowing often at random times. Signs that he recognized well.

"Dream, your starving aren't you? I don't know exactly how Tommy wasn't like this, especially seeing you like this but you have to eat Dream, don't torture yourself, to try and die or something, we have food, I'll bring you some soon ok? Just give me a minute" Tubbo said and left the cell. He closed the door that somehow still worked and locked it in place. Dream got into bed hoping to try and sleep off the night. Seeing that he was back to square one he needed to start fresh tomorrow.
