"It's fine," Techno told Ghost Drè, who just nodded stretching. "What are we doing today?" Ghost Drè asked looking around the room at everyone. "Well while you two where sleeping, Phil and I came up with a plan," Wilbur told the duo, Techno perked up at this. "We think if we can get Dream here, to remember everything then as he can bring people back to life he could bring himself back" Wilbur explained sounding slightly excited and happy.
"How exactly are we going to do that?" Techno asked dejected. Phil and Wilbur looked down. They didn't think of that. "Um, I may have an idea" Ghost Drè spoke up catching everyone's attention. Once he had everyone's attention he carried on. "I think sleeping helps. When I was sleeping I was watching something, which I'm assuming are my memories as they where in first-person" Ghost Drè told them. "That's great! What did you remember?" Wilbur asked. "Well, I remember who built the prison with me and that they where the warden when I was there, Sam I think," Ghost Drè said looking around for someone to confirm it. Phil nodded "that's right anything else?" he asked.
"Yeah my... Torturer was Quackity" Ghost Drè said shivering slightly at the memories of the man visiting him. Techno's eyes darkened at this. He clenched his fists as he tried to ignore the voices calling and demanding the man's blood. Techno took a deep breath calming himself before releasing it. Ghost Drè saw this so he put a confuting hand on Techno's shoulder. "I'm not there anymore. It's fine" he told Techno calmly trying to show that it's in the past. Techno visibly relaxed. Seeing this they decided to continue. "Anything else?" Wilbur asked looking at Techno cautiously. "The people who came to get me out where, Tommy, Tubbo, George and Sapnap," Ghost Drè said before continuing. "It was Tommy's and Tubbo's idea to let me go after fighting that monster" Ghost Drè informed them. They didn't know who came up with the idea to let Dream go or who decided to kill Dream after they found out he survived. So, finding out Tommy and Tubbo where the ones who let him go and are probably the ones who call for the murder of Dream was upsetting. Tommy was family. And he was the one who caused Dream so much suffering. He was the one who first called Dream a villain and the thought that he's also the reason why Dream died was heartbreak.
"Do you remember George and Sapnap?" Phil questioned changing the subject to one he hoped would be more favourable. "Yes, they where my friends" Ghost Drè put more emphasis on the where. "Where?" Wilbur asked confused. He wasn't too well-formed on what happened between the three that called themselves the, Dream Team. "Well I did everything I could to keep them safe and they called me selfish. I try to talk to them, they call me a manipulator. I fight to save them, they call me a villain. Is that what a friend is?" Ghost Drè asked looking Wilbur in the eyes.
Wilbur saw the pain in Ghost Drè's eyes. The pain and the sorrow of being seen, called and treated as such by people he thought he could call friends. Dream was someone that's hard to gain trust from. He's someone that can act like you know him but you know nothing at all. He's someone that could talk for hours and tell you all sorts, but also tell you nothing. He's someone who keeps you at arm's length but you think he's welcoming you with open arms. So when he trusts someone which takes time, he'll do anything for them. And that's what George and Sapnap took advantage of.
Wilbur sighed. "That's all I remember so far," Ghost said. The others where surprised he remembered so much anyway. It baffled them. Wilbur never really got his memory's back. He was a ghost for longer than Dream and remembered near enough nothing. But Dream was remembering a lot and I'm such a small timeframe. Ghost Drè looked a little down because he couldn't remember more. "You've remembered a lot Dream it's amazing how much you've remembered in such a small time," Phil told Ghost Drè with a smile.
They where interrupted by a knock on the door. Phil look at the others, there was another knock louder than the last. Phil stood up cautiously wondering who was at the door while also fearing what will happen if they saw Ghost Drè. Phil opened the door to see his other son, Tommy. "Tommy what do-" Phil was cut off when Tommy pushed his way in and began to talk. "Everything's been so quiet with Dream gone. Can you believe it" Tommy asked sounding happy. "If I knew that killing Dream would stop everything. That it's stopped the growing tension even with him in the prison I would have done it sooner" Tommy smiled as he walked towards the living room. Completely oblivious to the anger aura that filled the house. Phil followed behind Tommy, praying to whatever God is listening to spear Tommy.
Tommy's smile dropped instantly when he saw Ghost Drè sat on the couch of his brother's house next to him. "What are you doing, here?! You better not have manipulated them to let you in and feel sorry for you again. You-you monster!" Tommy yelled pointing accusingly at Ghost Drè. Who only looked at him with a hurt expression that no one saw because of his smiley mask. "I thought we got rid of you," Tommy said with venom. "Why can't you just stay dead completely?!" He yelled getting closer to Ghost Drè.
Wilbur looked at Tommy then at Ghost Drè. Ghost Drè's body language gave nothing away. It made it look like he felt nothing. Wilbur then looked at Techno who seemed to be staring at Tommy with an unreadable expression. "Tommy" Wilbur warned not taking his eyes off of Techno. Watching as Technos hand twitched. Tommy ignored it. "You know that everything is better when when you where completely gone" he put more emphasis on the gone. Making it clear that he wished Dream was 6 feet under and not here as a ghost. Dreams presence alone, no matter what form, seems to make problems.
Phil, who heard Wilbur's warning looked at Techno. Techno looked so close to doing something that he probably won't regret. "Tommy!" Phil warned more panicked and firmly than Wilbur. The warning didn't register until the last comment fell from his mouth "we should bring you back just to kill you again. That might make you stay dead then". He knew he messed up when he finally caught Techno's face. Rage. Just pure rage. "Shit" Tommy whispered to himself when he saw that look in Techno's eyes. It promised death. A painful death. A very, very slow and painful death. "Hey-hey big T" Tommy said voice shaking. "How's it going?" He asked. "Do you want to repeat what you said now?" Techno asked now standing up towering over Tommy. Tommy gulped. Fear taking control. Phil and Wilbur thought that Tommy was about to get the beating of his life when they heard Ghost Drè. "Tech? It's ok," He said gently. He'd somehow stood up without anyone knowing. "It's alright," Ghost Drè told Techno as he approached Techno and Tommy. "Ignore them. Block them out," he told Techno referring to the voice in Techno's head. Techno was still tense but somewhat calmer. Tommy was still shaking and shocked at how Ghost Drè managed to stop Techno. No one can stop him.
Ghost Drè put his hand on Techno's shoulder. "You shouldn't hurt your brother" Ghost Drè smiled even though it wasn't seen. He squeezed Technos shoulder in confit. "Fine" Techno mumbled moving away from Tommy and sitting back on the couch huffing.
