Tubbo punched the office wall, a frustrated scream escaping his lips. Fundy stood nearby, a worried look on his face. Quackity reclined on the couch with a bottle of beer.

"QUACKITY!" The president whipped around and glared daggers at his right-hand man. "You said the plan was foolproof. You said it would work!"

Quackity stood, shocked and offended. "I didn't know Tommy was secretly a monster!" he shot back. Tubbo stopped, his hatred only growing larger.

"Tommy. Is not. A monster."

"Yea? Then what is he?"

"HE'S TOMMY!"

"HE'S A TRAITOR!"

"HE'S CONFUSED! And... and scared. You don't know him like I do," Tubbo's voice softened. Quackity pinched the bridge of his nose and sighed.

"Tubbo, I think you should quit."

Tubbo's anger returned. "Whatdya mean, quit?"

"I mean you should quit! Look at you, always doing things without anyone's consent. You let your anger control you. You make deals with Dream, our forever enemy! If I didn't know better, I'd say you were a tyrant."

"You want a tyrant?" Tubbo roared. "Take Schlatt! At least I'm better than him!"

"I don't care if he's a tyrant!" Quackity screamed. "At least he wasn't the worst president in L'Manburg history!"

Fundy gasped and the room fell silent. Quackity smirked as Tubbo ducked his head. He had won. He had beaten Tubbo.

A sound came from Tubbo's mouth, almost like a soft sob, and Quackity's face dropped. But as it grew louder, the people in the room soon realized it was a chuckle, then a laugh, then a cackle. Tubbo looked up quickly, screaming with laughter. His small horns, once half hidden suddenly began to grow, until they curled around his ears and settled against his cheeks.

When Tubbo calmed down, he approached Quackity slowly. The vice-president backed away until he was pressed against the wall, with nowhere to run. Tubbo stopped inches from his face.

"You want me to be Schlatt, huh? If that's what you want, I will oblige. You want me to be a useful president, then I will have nothing hold me back. That includes you, Quackity. Now get out, you are resigned from your status as vice-president of L'Manburg." Tubbo's grin only grew wider and more crooked. He snatched Quackity's wrist and pulled him forward till the older man's ear practically grazed Tubbo's lips.

"And don't ever come back," the president whispered.

Quackity pulled away in shock, before flinging himself past Fundy and out the door. Tubbo slowly turned to the fox, who whimpered.

"Fundy, Fundy, Fundy. Now what on earth do we do with you? Perhaps I'll promote you... perhaps I'll fire you. The possibilities are just endless," Tubbo mumbled as he almost prowled around the nervous man.

"T-Tubbo. Please, this isn't you. Is this what Tommy wanted-"

"TOMMY’S GONE! HE MADE HIS CHOICE, I'VE MADE MINE," Tubbo shouted, and Fundy shut up.

Tubbo sighed. "Fundy. I want you to take Quackity's place as vice-president. I think it's time we made some... changes to L'Manburg."

"You aren't-"

"Oh, nonono! L'Manburg will still be L'Manburg when I'm finished with it. I want more defenses built, as well as an armoury, a training area, things like that. Nothing big. I'm not gonna build an obsidian wall around it," Tubbo cackled.

Fundy let out a nervous laugh.

"Also, get our best artist working on wanted posters for Technoblade, Ghostbur, Ranboo, and-"

"And what?"

Tubbo suddenly felt cold. A feeling of dread rushed through him, as if someone or something was watching him, and he shivered.

"Fundy, come with me." Tubbo brushed passed him and speed-walked to the door. Fundy hesitated, and Tubbo turned back to him. "NOW!"

But Fundy stayed where he was, frozen in fear. He didn't like the new Tubbo. Not one bit.

"Oh, for goodness sake-"

Tubbo rushed toward fundy, grabbing the fox by the wrist and pulled him toward the door-

"What's that beeping sound?" Fundy asked-

Click.

Tubbo lunged at Fundy and pulled him to the ground as the walls around them exploded inward.

Quackity watched in horror as TNT rained from the heavens, an obsidian grid in the sky looming above him.

Tommy shrieked as a loud boom rumbled in the distance.

High above it all, a man clothed in green smiled.
