Let's add a little bit of spice

Dream's POV

"I'm in charge," I state.

"No he's not," Drista says, taking off her helmet.

Chaos squints and looks at Drista.

"Four down, two to go until we can go home, you lot are going to be like a early christmas present to everyone," Chaos quips.

"It's not... That simple Chao.." Drista says slowly.

"I like there's a nickname for my nickname," Chaos remarks. "Wait what do you mean it's not that simple? Yes it is, I get you all in a group and we go through the portal and we go home."

"How about we talk about this outside," I suggest.

Chaos looks around at us. "I don't.. Trust any of you at the moment.." Chaos replies slowly. "Why can't you all come back home?"

"Chao.. We made a life here for ourselves, we can't just leave behind everybody," Drista responds.

"Dream isn't even supposed to be here right now," Chaos replies holding their hand out and pointing at me.

"They got a point-" George comments.

"You aren't allowed in Rivendell," Drista states.

"Uh yes I am, I went there yesterday," Chaos assures.

I look at George, though he can't tell because of the mask.

"How about we talk outside instead, just to clear somethings up?" Drista suggests.

"Okay...," Chaos replies cautiously.

We watch them leave.

Drista's POV

I lead Chaos outside the Kinoko Library.

"Listen, the reason we can't go home is because we made a home here," I start to explain.

"Who is we? Because from what I heard, a lot of people are horrible people," Chao responds.

"Well, me, George, Dream, XD,"

"Your brothers left a few years before you disappeared, how did you end up here? And how are you roughly the same age as me, thought time worked different."

"That's complicated-"

"Then explain, I like a good story,"

"Well- I don't know how to explain, because I don't know how it happened-"

"That's fine, so, are the others here?"

I stop and think about how I am going to break the news to Chao that the others didn't make it.

"Chao..., they others... didn't quite make it out..," I say slowly.

"What? Of course they made it out, they aren't at home,"

"Chao.. They are dead! Okay! They aren't coming back! And neither are we!"

"You don't know that! Everyone thinks you're dead and here you are!"

"I do know that! That didn't arrive here with me! They died on the way out!"

"So that's it?! I go home and be alone again?! Tell everyone, Hey, so these people are alive but they aren't coming home and they told me that everyone else is dead?! I don't want to be alone anymore!"

"Maybe Ranboo will go back with you!"

"Why would Ranboo come back with me?!"

"I don't know!"
