Tommy was hyperventilating.

It was dark.

It was cramped.

He felt like he couldn't breathe- this void was hugging him tightly, just as it had done in limbo. He was begging quietly. He could barely hear anything, and he felt all gross. He heard mumbling- that was something he could latch onto before he disassociated. He strained to hear them, desperate for freedom of the cramped, mushy, dark space.

"Are they......"

"........... them out?"

Tommy didn't hear anything else before his prison was opened up, and he immediately got up and ran away from it. The ringing in his ears was too loud to make out anything the people were saying. He leaned against the wall and slid down, clutching his hair. He didn't realize he was being comforted until he felt a bit of fluff bonk him on his nose.

"Boop!" The voice said, the shade and tint of white and black coming into focus. Tommy then took in the scenery around him-

He was in a basement. Great.

Cold, dark gray walls surrounded them, as well as wooden shelves covered in random clutter. A wooden stairway sat across from him, as well as the people he identified as Ranboo and Tubbo. Standing near the stairway, was the old lady, the young girl and the gray animal.

He quickly checked Tubbo and Ranboo for injuries, before standing up and walking to their captors. The older lady went in front of her kids. protectively.

"Alright you sack of shit, where the fuck are we and why the fuck are we here." Tommy spat as he walked closer. The older lady stood her ground, now in a red dress. She still held the same staff.

"Well, somebody's arrogant. Listen, I don't know how you got here or why you're here, but Belos can suck it if he thinks sending a few teenagers after me was smart." The lady chuckled. Tommy just halted, wearing a face of confusion.

"Who the fuck names their kid 'Belos'? And why does he want you of all people? You seem like a bitch to me."

Now, the lady and the girl looked confused.

"Eda, let me take this. He's human, I think." The girl spoke up, grabbing a small piece of paper. She tapped it and it folded in on itself to become a fucking ball of light.

"You're human, right?" She started.

"Uh, yeah? I'm Tommy Careful Danger Kraken Innit, that's Tubbo and Ranboo Underscore Beloved."

"Wh- Underscore Beloved? Careful Danger Kraken Innit? Ranboo? Tubbo? What kind of names are those? Even for demons, that's odd."

"What till she finds out about Fundy." Tubbo muttered, causing Ranboo to snort.

"Okay, how did you get here? Is there another portal?"

"Portal? Maybe. Tubbo there decided to draw an eyeball and put on a Regen Pot, blaze powder and some other shit, then he got pulled in."

"You did too, Bossman. You slipped and pulled me in." Tubbo corrected, now standing by Tommy. Ranboo was also next to Tommy, hunching down due to his height.

"Well, I don't know what any of that stuff is, but I'm Luz. Luz Noceda."

"And she said our names were odd." Tommy muttered.

"Well Luz, what are we doing with them?" The older lady cut in after a yawn.

"Well, where are you guys from?"

"We're from the Dream SMP, a world where nobody likes you and war is common."
"Yup, trauma for days!"
"Haunts you for a lifetime."

".....Are you all okay?"

"Nope!" They all said in unison.

---------------------------

"So, you three can stay in this guest room for now. Try anything funny and I will burn you." The older lady, Eda, said.

"Thank you Miss Clawthorne!" Ranboo said, unrolling the three sleeping bags.

"Oh also, here's your stuff, tall boy. I went through it and took everything, so if you want it back you're gonna have to earn our trust. Don't cause trouble, Hooty will be watching you all night." She said, tossing an (empty, except for food) black bag at Ranboo.

A few minutes later, a knock on the door alerted the three teens to see Luz and King.

"So, you guys alright? I know how it feels to be far from home."

"Eh, so do we. I just hope that Micheal and Shroud are okay..." Ranboo muttered. "Did you leave them there alone?" Tubbo said, tail and ears flicking.

"No no, I told him to call Phil and try to remake our portal. Shroud was still sleeping when I saw him."

"Uh, hello? Who's Shroud and Micheal?" King spoke, wiggling out of Luz's grasp and walking over to them. Ranboo rummaged through his pocket to get his wallet (why does he carry that?) and show a picture of all of them together.

"The pig is Micheal, Tubbo and I's son, and the spider is Shroud, Tommy's son." Ranboo said, pointing his long claws at the image, smiling fondly.

"Wait, tell me how your world works. There's demons and Humans? Is there other realms?" Luz asked, sitting down.

"Oh kid, there's a lot to tell..."
