Tw: mentions of murder, implied kidnapping, small mention of blood, running away, swearing, death, and passing out

Third person POV:

Tommy had finally noticed that his legs had been poking Dream. He has been apologizing to Dream for the past thirty minutes. Dream was staring at Tommy in confusion because he couldn't understand their language. Tubbo was yelling at Tommy to stop apologizing and Ranboo was just watching the chaos. The two children were playing with each other, completely in their own world and unaware of what was going on with the adults. Tommy had bandaged Dream up and he was checking to make sure that he was alright. Dream groaned before slipping out of Tommy's grip. Tommy whined a little but seemed to understand that Dream needed space.

Suddenly a notification came up on Dreams phone. He had been saving his battery for the rescue team so when he got this notification he immediately turned on his phone. He saw a message from the town that he had called for help from. The message read: Hello we can send a rescue team now. If for any reason you need us to come at a specific time or you haven't given us your location please tell us. Thank you!

Dream was quick to reply. His response read: Hello I need you to pick me up sometime really late at night. It's the only time I can get to you. I will be in the abandoned village. Thank you so much for this.

The people responded and said: we can do 1:45 am if that works for you.

Dream breathed out a sigh of relief and said: that works. thank you.

Dream then put his phone away and sat down. He looked back at Tommy who was sitting on the floor. Even though Dream felt bad about leaving them because they were just children. Even if he felt bad about this Dream knew that Tommy and his friends could survive. Tommy had scared Dream for life and Dream wasn't about to sit there and stay with someone who murdered everyone he cared about. He sighed as Tommy looked up at him. Dream stood up and hugged Tommy. Tommy looked surprised but hugged back with a smile on his face. Dream looked up at Tommy and almost cried. He could see the inner child that Tommy was. The person behind the mass murderer. Dream didn't want to leave this poor child alone but he knew that he couldn't stay. In all honesty once he was rescued he would probably move away to a different state. Perhaps somewhere like Hawaii. Even though Tommy and his friends could probably swim Dream knew that this was to far of a distance for even them to swim. Even though they were super fucking tall they still wouldn't have enough stamina to swim all the way to Hawaii. Dream sighed as Tommy picked him up and hugged him. Dream just let himself relax with Tommy for the last time.

Dream sat on his phone waiting for the clock to turn to 1:45. He was sitting at the entrance of the cave in boredom. He stood up, deciding to start on the trek to the village, and started packing the few things he had. He ran to the village with his few belongings. He stopped at his house and picked up patches, who had survived off the food that Dream had left out, before standing in the middle of the village. He found a small fireplace that had been abandoned by one of the old villagers. He set it up, threw in a few sticks, and lit the sticks on fire. He watched the fire glow brighter before he sat waiting for the rescue team to appear.

Finally the clock reached 1:45 and Dream heard the sound of a helicopter. He looked up and saw a helicopter lowering a ladder because the area was to small for the helicopter to land. Dream grabbed Patches and some things that were important to him before he started climbing. The fire had been put out once Dream saw the helicopter. Once he reached the top he handed Patches to the people inside before pulling himself up. He was shivering from the cold and looked very malnourished since he had been living in the woods with very little food. The people in the helicopter looked at him with concern as the pilot started to flag away. Dream could have sworn that he had heard an inhuman scream come from the direction of the cave. Dream sighed as he finally felt the tiniest bit safer. Finally the exhaustion settled in and Dream promptly passed out into the floor of the helicopter.

When Dream awoke he found himself in a white room. He was sitting in a small bed with a curtain in between him and another person. A young nurse walked by and saw him awake. She quickly rushed off and Dream sighed. Two doctors walked into the room. They were a man and a woman that Dream didn't know. A meow quickly alerted Dream to Patches presence on his lap. He smiled a little and started petting her. She purred and moved up closer to Dream face.

"Hello I'm nurse Niki and this is Doctor Jacobs. We are just going to do a few quick tests and then you'll be free to go!" Niki says. Dream smiles gratefully but doesn't say anything. His throat felt like if he tried to talk he wouldn't be able to make any noise. Niki smiled sympathetically at him as doctor Jacobs started checking all of Dreams vitals. Niki handed Dream some food and Dream took it gratefully before eating a little bit of it.

"He seems to be just fine. He's just a little dehydrated and malnourished. Once he gets some proper rest, food, and water he'll be all better." Doctor Jacobs says to both Niki and Dream. Dream smiled and thanked both of them.

"Hey your from the village that evacuated right?" She asks suddenly "if you want to see anyone from the village they might be here." She smiles Dream looks up at her hopefully.

"Is there someone named Badboyhalo or Skeppy? They were my best friends parents and if they are here then I would like to talk to them." Dream says in a raspy voice. Nikis face falls and Dream immediately notices "what's wrong? Did something happen?" Dream asks worriedly.

"...Skeppy and Badboyhalo aren't doing good right now. Badboyhalo got severely injured while helping people escape the village and Skeppy has caught a very deadly and rare disease. Neither one of them are going to make it." Niki says gently. Dreams eyes filled with tears. These were the last people he had last and they are both dying.

"May I see them?" Dream asks quietly. Niki nods before walking towards the door.

"I'll go and tell them that your coming to visit. I'm sure that they would be delighted to see you." Niki says sadly before walking out, her shoes clacking on the floor. Dream pulled Patches up into his chest. He buried his face in Patches fur and started quietly sobbing. Patches, who could tell that Dream was immensely sad, mewed quietly and tried to cheer Dream up.

Niki came back into the room a few minutes later. "They are ready to see you. Please follow me." Niki whispers. Dream nods and stands up, carrying Patches with him. Niki leads him to a small room that looked identical to the one that Dream was staying in. The only difference was that the curtain was pulled back so that there two people could see each other. Both Skeppy and Bad looked up at Dream as he entered behind Niki.

"Hi Dream!" Bad says in a happy but raspy voice.

"Hi Bad. How are you two doing?" Dream asks quietly.

"I'm doing pretty well for someone who is dying." Skeppy jokes. Dream smiles at him before giving both of them a hug. Bad smiled at him sadly.

"I'm gonna miss you guys. I love you." Dream whispers. He sat on the floor in the middle of them.

"That's okay. We will miss you to Dream. At least we'll get to be with Sapnap again." Bad whispers "now dry your eyes and be happy that you got to spend some time with us before we died." Dream smiles through tears at Bad who smiled back. He gave him a big hug and spent the rest of the day with the two men.

Badboyhalo and Skeppy died within minutes of each other a few days after Dream had arrived at the town. Dream gave up and died a few days after Skeppy and Bad. He died in his sleep on the hospital bed. Tommy, Tubbo, Ranboo, Michael, and Shroud never learned of Dreams death. They hunted for Dream until they died. They all died young at the ages of twenty two (Tommy), twenty seven (Tubbo), twenty four (Ranboo), thirty one (Micheal), and twenty nine (Shroud). Sometimes endings are misleading and people die to a force other than the villain.
