Family by Blood

Chapter23:And the House felt so big, And I felt so small

)o(
Fundy
Fundy felt more lost than he had ever been before. He felt nothing, not happy nor disappointed, just nothing.

The war started and he and Punz abandoned the search for dad to join the fight. All those annoying dogs Techno had with their stupid names were actually really scary when they wanted to be.

But Punz sliced through them like butter. Fundy tried his best but primes there was a lot of blood.

Then they won. They actually won, not that Fundy had any doubts. And Technoblade retreated leaving everyone behind. Something he never knew his Uncle to do before. Something he thought Techno would rather die than do.

They were about to go back to search for Wilbur when this white haired lady showed up.

"It's just his mom, Dream can handle it, come on." Punz said and Fundy started to follow him inside but-

Dream's mom.

As weird as it sounds, Fundy hasn't seen a mother since his own mom died.

It was a stupid thought.

Then she was dead.

Fundy never got to say goodbye to his mom. Wilbur didn't tell him she was sick until it was too late.

And Dream just-

Fundy was in shock. Punz was absolutely unfazed by the death before him and just guided Fundy inside the manor without a single word.

Dream just-

Fundy shook his thoughts, he himself was willing to kill Wilbur in his sleep not that long ago.

But Fundy didn't, didn't he?

He thought that was what he wanted. After all the BS Wilbur put him through but-

Wilbur was still his Dad.

A crappy pathetic excuse for a father that would never know how much Fundy hated him. Would never know how many tears he shed from Wilbur's apathy or shouting anger. Things that Wilbur's pretty words would never fix.

Dream killed his mom like it was nothing.

"Dream may think we have won but if even one loose end is left unchecked then it could all come apart in minutes." Punz said to him.

"I mean you- we kinda won." Fundy suggested lightly but his throat was rather dry. "Sleepy coven was the last coven standing. Dream is quite literally in control of the entire vampire world."

Punz shook his head. "Well we still- right, Dream wouldn't have told you."

"Would you not tell me what?" Fundy asked, annoyed at being left hanging.

"It's not really my place to say." Punz explained. "We just couldn't tell you everything since you were surrounded by the enemy, is all. Just wait until Dream calls a meeting, he will tell you everything then."

Fundy couldn't imagine what more Dream could want. Could not imagine what else there possibly was to claim.

The manor felt different now, not homely or full of life. It was empty and cold, like the building was weeping with its people.

Bad, someone Fundy had met a few times since he was a head, or at least he used to be, was walking Sapnap down towards the basement. Sapnaps hands were on his head and Bad was pointing a bow and arrow at his temple.

Fundy was horribly confused but Punz just nodded like he expected this.

"How long ago did he break free? Do you know?" Punz asked.
