-Third pov-

The festival. Today was a festival. Will had made it so clear that today was the day that button was going to be pressed. The day that this country. The country we built.. Was going to go up in flames.. Tommy and will weren't invited to this so called festival however shadow and technoblade where. The sun was setting.. It was time for the festival to begin.

The festival was going well.. For the most part.. But now.. It's time for tubbos speech..
This is how the plan was going to go. Tubbo had a sentence to say.. His sentence held the future of lmanburg.. Whether it go up in flames.. Or whether it stands another day.
Everyone gathered down by the chairs as they waited for there president to give a speech.

"You know even though I live making fun of tubbo. He's an amazing right-hand man. Hell I log in once a week while he does all this"

"He's an amazing guy. Without furthermore I'll hand it over to the man himself"

Shlatt declared as he stepped down from the podium and took tubbos place while tubbo stood in front of the microphone looking down at the members of this nation. Everyone clapped as he took a breath..

"Shlatt as successfully gotton rid if the insects from our nation and made it healthy and good again"

"We are free to elect who we want. Free to go where ever we want with the destruction of the big black walls.. With that in mind.. I'd like to thank shlatt for making our nation great and everyone for coming to this festival!"

.. Silence.. No clapping.. Nothing. But laughing. A laugh that leaves men shaking at the sound. All eyes went from tubbo to shlatt. Has he and quackity trapped tubbo in a box..

"Is that all you wanted to say tubbo.. I know what you have been fuxking doing"

".. You know what happens to traitors.."

Tubbos eyes widen in fear.. He was so careful. So fucking careful.. And yet it he was careful enough. Shlatt called for technoblade to come up to the stage.. Has his face held a firm expression making sure the panic doesn't show. Why was he chosen? What do they want? Do they know?

"Technoblade.i wanna you to take him out"

"What like to dinner?"
Technoblade said. Maybe if he acted dum it would work. Maybe just maybe..

"No you idiot I want you to kill him"

... Now what..

"Actually I want to call up one more person.. One of my greatest friends.. Shadow come up here will ya"

Everyone's eyes looked around to find the zombie slowly standing.. His white eyes stared at shlatt as he walked up to he stage..
His red blazer and white shirt stood out in the crowd. Shlatt smirked and quackity laughed.
His laugh just has menacing as shlatts.

"What you want Mr President" shadows words held playfulness mixed with sarcasm.he stood next to technoblade arms crossed wondering why he's here.. There wasn't many reasons why. To help kill tubbo? To watch painfully? Did they know he was helping the others? Was he gonna get killed to?

"Shadow.. Your a great friend of ours..But.. I want you to tell tubbo 'this is how it has to be'" shadows eyes widen. He knew what this was.. Why bother.. Making tubbo think this is how it 'has to be' this 'wasn't meant to be.'
It was shlatts way of showing he controls everyone.. Even dream.. Though the green man was no where to be seen.. Quackitys arms hung around shlatts shoulder as be smirked
