Pawprints: Manipulations

3- revivial

I woke up in a panic.

When I caught my breath I looked around but my thoughts were stopped by laughter.

"It worked!" Dreams voice ripped through the silence and echoed in the dark room; "oh I can't believe that fucking worked!"

Still trying to get back to my senses I looked around, the room I was in was a large square with a hall branching off one side and a nether portal in front of me. 

Dream was kneeling beside me clutching a book with was slightly glowing.

"What- happened?" My memory was still fuzzy, I remembered everything from the cabin but before that, all I could remember was falling while running away from him.

"What do you mean?" Dream asked, "what do you remember? What did you see?"

"I-" I stumbled to put my words together, "I was in my cabin, Wilbur- he was there Shlatt too, and someone else."

"I need to test this more," Dream muttered to himself while flipping through his book.

I finally looked down the hall further. I could see all sorts of signs and frames. Taking advantage of Dream's distracted state I stood and walked through the hall.

The signs read out different items' names. Under some of them were the items.

Axe of peace- under which was the ax, some blood still staining the blade. He must have gotten it in the previous battle.

I recognized the names of Sapnaps fish and under the signs was a small bowl holding the fish.

Then there was a sign with the name of Ranboo's cat and a small empty crate.

At the end of the hall, there were two fenced-in stables. One held Friend, ghostbur's sheep, the other held a cow with Tommy's signature red bandana tied around its neck, Henry.

I stood in silence, what was Dream planning to do with all of this? He even had a place for Skeppy.

"Dream," He looked up with a silent stare, "what is all this."

"The only way to control everyone here," He stated with a small smile forming "everyone's attachments in this land."

I looked around, almost everyone had something here that they were attached to.

He even had something for me-
There hung my old faded L'Manberg necklace. I had thought it was destroyed when he took it.

I heard his laughter before he spoke again, "I've been collecting for a while as you can see."

He walked over to the necklace and took it off the wall, "I even did my research into hybrids to find something to control you with, and sure enough these things are very important to your kind aren't they?"

"Dream give it back."

"Cause for you guys these represent your family don't they," he held the necklace tightly, "you've just been wearing the one you came here with, haven't you? And it doesn't seem to mean as much to you as this one does."

"Dream just give it back please."

"Now why would I do that?" He laughed slightly, "the purpose is that I have something that you have an attachment to."

He stuffed the necklace into his pocket before he started walking toward the portal.

"Now you're going to stay here while I go get some stuff sorted out, and maybe if you're good y-"

I cut Dream off by tackling him to the ground and reaching for the pocket he had stashed the necklace in.

Dream took no time in pushing me off himself. I rushed towards him once more just to get pushed away again before Dream reached behind him pulling out something.

I didn't wait to see what it was before I transformed and began running looking for a hole big enough for me to slip into.

Before I could reach anything a rough hand grabbed me.

"I guess I can resend my statement," Dream scoffed before walking over to a sign that read "Enderchest", Ranboo's cat. He took the empty crate and opened it throwing me in and locking the door.

"Well you're gonna stay there while I go sort some stuff out," he stood up before walking away towards the portal.

I jumped at the door, scratched the sides, and screamed but Dream just continues walking out.

"Please, try to behave ok," Dream said before walking through the portal.

I tried one last jump to the side of the crate only accomplishing putting the crate on its side and falling hard onto the ground. Still stuck, but now alone.
