Everything was blurry, everything that Tommy saw was a blur of colors dancing Infront of his eyes, he squeezed his eyes together to try to get a better view. Ugh he was so dizzy as well, where was up and down, left and right everything was spinning. Noises were buzzing in his ears through his brain and the buzzing became words, his words.

"Tommy? Are you awake?"

The blonde tried to nod but he barley was able to move and made him more dizzy.

"Good. Do you know why?

*Tommy was confused but didn't answer*

Do you know why you're still alive?"

Tommy swallowed and it was silent for a few seconds but than he was suddenly jacked up by his arm. He was stumbling but not falling cause his other held him straight at one of his shoulders. He blinked a couple times only to be met with a not so familiar face or well the half of a face.

Dream was standing right infront of him his usual circular smile mask missing however a black skin tight fabric was reaching from his nose the the bottom of his neck covering one half of his face.

His eyes were a bright poison like green they kinda reminded Tommy of a cats eyes.

Dream took a step closer taking both of Tommys shoulders shaking him a little.

"Huh- oh hi Dream..."
Tommy said having a hard time keeping his voice from breaking.

"I asked you a question."

There was a pause of a few seconds before Dream slapped Tommy in the face.
Tommy was terrified of the green man and wasn't quite able to talk probably to the man. Fuck, he was shacking, Dream did a lot of fucked up stuff to him how wouldnt he be scared, so scared that he was ready to give everything up his whole life everything and everyone even his best friend-
That thought hit Tommy like a slap.

"WHERE IS TUBBO?"

He yelled worried for his friend but also angry but he wasnt quite sure at who.

...

"Tommy. I asked you A GOD DAMN QUESTION"

Dream tighted his grip on Tommys shoulders and kneed the kid into his stomach, he would've fallen to the ground if he could however Dream was holding him still forcing him to stand so Tommy just coughed a bit.

"Lets try again.

*Dream let go of Tommys shoulders and held his face forcefully and squished it together so it was painful*

Do you know why youre still alive?"

Tommy thought about that for some seconds realizing he should probably answer quickly before Dream would get mad at him.

"I dont" Tommy admitted sheepishly.

Dream clapped a little which confused Tommy even more and he took a step back since he now had an option to after Dream had let go of him.

"Exactly, you don't know a single thing Tommy. Come here

*Dream said as he sat down and leaned onto a black obsidian wall*

I have some things to talk to you about"

Tommy was confused was he seriously gonna sit down next to Dream and shit chat about some evil bullshit with him?
It was only then when Tommy realised where he was, it was the main cell in the prison but it wasnt over grown and destroyed no, it looked like it did the very first time he visited Dream in here.
Memories started to shoot up into Tommys brain, painful ones that made his eyes wet and gave him a shiver as he stepped back more trying to go somewhere but there was nowhere to go he just wanted to get out he felt so horrible claustrophobic.

"No...no no no no no no. Not this agian please not again... Let me out!"

Tommy bit his lip nervously he was pacing around pointlessly.

"SAM"

He screamed into the direction of the lava curtain.

"SAM LATE ME OUT PLEASE! SAM!"

Dream let out a laugh which drawed Tommys attention to him looking at the masked man with a disturbed look.

"The only way you're getting out of here is to talk to me and answer my questions."

Dream continued, and he didn't even need to say that twice as Tommy was already sat infront of him he was truly panicking and just wanted to get out.

"Isnt that better already? now i have some things to ask you."

Dreams voice had a sarcastic undertone, Tommy swallowed but stayed silent he was scared out of his mind.

"Lets start, where you left. How did you and Tubbo escape the prison?"

Tommy looked at the floor "when i emptied my enderchest... I kept 2 items with me and threw them on the pressure plate..."

Dream laughed "i knew it, when will you not lie to me uhhhh how about now. What were these 2 itens so utterly important?"

"I-" Tommy stopped himself to think for a second but Dream noticed that ofcourse "is that really important -?

"Does it have to be?" Dream asked "its simple i ask you answer just because i want you to." Dream grabbed Tommys shoulder roughly to make Tommy flinch.

Tommy nodded slowly and carried on "it was... Cat and Mellohi." He said it quickly and than swallowed.

"Oh... That is really interesting! So Wilbur didn't just lie to me about the discs but also to you..." Tommy nodded at Dreams assumption "that rat bastard... *Dream started to laugh* you sacrifice your discs for Tubbo only to bring him and yourself back." Dream continued to laugh.

Tommy looked at the ground was he... dissapointed in himself-? NO. He did it to stay alive, to survive. Tommy looked back Dream with a serious face. "Where is Tubbo?" he demanded to know.

Dream shook his head. "i tod you, i ask the questions you answer and now you're gonna tell me why you're here, why did you decide to come back?"

"I-" Tommy begann to stumble over his words again "i wanted to live... I cant run from a god"

Dream chuckled "and what did you expect me to do?"

Tommy felt like a boulder hit him he didn't actually think about this a lot "i dont know but i hoped... by returning and bringing Tubbo you would maybe have mercy on me and let me life ...?"

Dream was about to say something and Tommy noticed by Dreams facial expression that that would probably not be the case so he quickly begann to speak again without really thinking.

"I MEAN- UHM if thats not enough- *he sighed* i didnt think this through Dream... The only thing i have is my life i have nothing to offer you..."

Dream nodded "thats enough."

"Huh waht do you-" Tommy tried to ask

"Your life. If thats all you can offer me ill take it and i want everything of it. I want your loyalty, your abilities, your very little knowledge and everything else you have to offer. Thats enough."

Tommy swallowed but if thats what it took to life he would do it. He wasnt going back to Limbo. No never again.
