Chapter 43: Scott

And... 

I don't know how to write this chapter! 

Woo! 

Somehow, of the several surprises that come when Tango and Skizz burst back in on the meeting, it's the fact that Skizz is awake and hasn't tried to kill me yet that shocks me most. 

Until they speak. 

'The- the other magic people- we know where they are!' Tango gasps out. 'They're- they're on this floor! Over... there.' I stand up as he points vaguely into the distance. 

'How do you know?' Joel asks.

'There's a whole wall of bedrock.'

'How are we going to break it? You can't break bedrock, that's like- the first lesson you learn.' 

'Impulse.' 

'What?' Everyone looks over at Skizz. 'What's Impulse got to do with this?'

'His- his invention for the redstone competition. It was something to break bedrock!' 

'Oh my goodness, we can save them!' Jimmy looks around at all of us, delighted. 'WE CAN SAVE OUR FRIENDS!'

'Shut up, there are other people nearby!' I snap, before regretting it at the sight of Jimmy's terror. 'How will we talk to Impulse though? And convince him?'

'He still wants to save everyone! He's not a bad person, Scott. He's been forced into making some horrible decisions due to stuff that wasn't even his fault to start with.' 

'We can figure out who's bedroom that place is below, and get Impulse up there to blow up the place from above.' Skeppy suggests. 'Then once they're out...'

'We start a revolution and kill the Principal.' Philza interrupts. 'Codename... L'manburg.' 

'But we can't fight him all on our own. We need help.' Joel snaps. 

'Then we tell everyone to help us.' I decides, glancing around at the others nodding and agreeing. 'I know a lot of people here.'

'Me too. And, we have magic powers. Me and Jimmy are... fish. Skizz, Mumbo and Ranboo are the Ender Trio... anyone else have magic powers?' Lizzie asks. Another thought comes to mind as Skeppy turns himself completely into diamond and Tango explains how he can blow stuff up with his eyes. 

'I can free Xornoth.' 

'What?' Jimmy looks at me. 'And give ourselves another enemy?!'

'Distract the Principal, and his guards. Hopefully he'd agree to help us.' It's unlikely. He wants me dead, but the others don't need to know that. 

'Xornoth isn't real.' Joel scoffs Joelishly. 

'He's my brother, of course he's real.'

'Dream would help too.' Ranboo realises. 

'With a codename of L'manburg?' Tubbo grimaces. 'That's a f***ing stupid idea.'

'No, but that's just in our game! He'd understand.' (Yes,  the entire DSMP is a game in this AU)

'Language!' Badboyhalo snaps back. 

'What about Martyn? If we're blowing up the school...'

'I can heal him.' Philza looks around for agreement. 'Bad, how badly is he hurt?'

'Not too badly... he's not as hurt as Grian was.' 

'When will we do this?'

'When Impulse saves our friends. We free them, and start rebelling, and then everyone else joins in.'
