Something is off

(Title pending)

Tommy's POV:

"Your time is up! Who's the lucky one?" We all look at each other. "Well, you know-" "We chose me" Ranboo cut him off. Me and Tubbo turn to them shocked. Shlatt looked at him and just shrugged his shoulders and pointed his gun. "Well, that was easy" Shlatt says before shooting his gun.

But before anything happens Ranboo disappears in a puff of purple and ends up behind me and Tubbo. "Yeah, but not easy enough" they say before all I see is purple. Me and Tubbo almost fall over after that. "Could have given a warning" Tubbo turns to him annoyed. "I just saved our lives, but sure, be mad" Ranboo says sarcastically.

"Wait were you planning that the whole time?" I ask them. "No" he starts, "but we need to start looking for Phil and the others" Tubbo and I agree and we start walking around. Ranboo is walking slower than us and I point it out. "I'm fine, just not used to teleporting, especially not with two others" Ranboo explains.

Me and Tubbo start talking not really paying attention to our surroundings, dumb I know, and were about to turn a corner when Ranboo grabs us. Tubbo, startled by this, elbows Ranboo out of reflex. "Ow! What the hell!" Ranboo whisper yells. "Sorry, but why'd you do that?" Tubbo questions. Ranboo looks around the corner before calming down.

"Y'all almost walked right into guards" they say, hand on his side, "jeez did you really need to elbow me" Ranboo asks, a hint of annoyance in their voice. "Well sorry, but considering the circumstances I think my reaction was called for" Tubbo says bluntly. Ranboo just rolls his eyes and starts walking again.

"We don't even know where we're going, this could be dangerous" I point out. "Well, yeah, but we don't really have anything else to do besides being sitting ducks, so..." Tubbo reresponds I sigh, he's right. "But still, couldn't Ranboo teleport and find the rest?" I question.

"Wish I could, but I'm still tired from the trick I pulled back there" Ranboo pipes up. "Tommy, we'll be fine, don't worry" Tubbo says looking at me. "We've had to many close calls within the last 24 hours" I argue.

Ranboo's POV:

God can't Tommy be quiet for one second. I'm so tired from saving us, and have a massive headache. My side is starting to act up again, but I have to go on. "There has to be something else-" Tommy starts.

"Tommy can you just shut up for one second!?!" I exclaim, I realize what I did and apologize. "It's fine, but are you ok?" Tommy asks. "Yeah... Yeah, I'm fine" I respond. Tommy and Tubbo glance at each other but don't say anything. We continue walking until we hear voices.

We pause and look around the corner, luckily it's Phil and the rest. "Phil!" Tommy says walking up to him. "Tommy?" He says turning around, "Oh thank goodness, you're all alive, but how?" He asks. "I got us out of there" I say briefly, out of breath.

"Hey, are you ok?" Phil asks. "Yeah I'm fine, just tired" I answer. Tommy and Phil walk off, Tubbo following after a bit. I was about to join them but the Phantom, who I know now as Wilbur or Wil, walks over to me. "Hey, what happened? Phil came here with some panic saying that one of you might die or already be dead?" Wil explains.

"Oh, shortened, shlatt cornered us, made us choose for one of us to die. Almost shot me, I teleported us out of there, we walked and found y'all" I say. He looks at me kinda confused, "teleport?" He questions. "Yeah, I found out about it a few hours ago"

Me and Wil talk some more, but suddenly I get really light headed and stumble a bit. "Woah, you ok?" Wil asks leaning forward. I steady myself and hold my head, "Yeah... I just suddenly got light headed. It's probably nothing" I answer.

Wil looks concerned but doesn't say anything. After about 30 minutes, Phil, Tommy and Tubbo come back, finishing their conversation. "Tommy and Tubbo were just telling me about how you got out, that's pretty impressive" Phil explains. "Thanks, but I'm gonna go sit down" I say, walking away.

Tubbo's POV:

After Ranboo leaves, Will starts talking, "Is something up with him?" He asks. "He has been acting weird since we got away from Shlatt" I answer "Why are you asking?" Tommy questions. "After you walked away we were talking and they random got light headed and almost fell over"

"That does sound concerning, especially with what Tommy and Tubbo were telling me" Phil rerespond. We all continued talking for awhile, before talking about plans. "Any ideas on getting out?" I ask. "No, but we probably should move or spread out"

"Why" Tommy asks, "Because if only one group gets caught then at least that's only a small loss" Phil explains. "Ok, but how would we decide groups?" I ask. "Well, we could do what we did last time, but also have some others so the groups are smaller" Phil says.

After we talked some more, someone walked over. "Hey, um, are you making plans for us to get oout they asked looking around. "Um, yeah? Why?" I ask. "Well, some other people are getting aggravated and are saying their gonna leave, or..." They pause and look down. "Or?" Phil questions, slightly concerned. "Or... Try to offer Shlatt one of y'all to let us free" they finish.

We all look at each other, worried. "Um, go back to the group and we'll get back to you" Tommy says. After that we all start talking worried about what we were told. "We should probably all stay together in case they do try anything" I say. "That's a good idea"

"Yeah, but where's Ranboo?" Tommy asks. "Wait... They went to sit down, we need to go get them" I say, with some panic in my voice. We were about to get them, before hearing shouting. We look at each other and run over. "What's going on here?" Phil questions.

A group of people look over at us angrily. Some of them trying to grab something. "Let me go!" Ranboo(?) shouts. Their struggling to grab them but I can tell he's struggling more. "You heard them, let go!" I shout, pushing some people out of the way.

"Oh come on, he's clearly the weakest right now" One of them say. "That doesn't matter, we don't sacrifice our own group!" I argue. A loud argument forms throughout the group, but someone yells. We all pause and look over.

The "leader" of the group has a knife. "You are going to hand over the ender, or we're gonna force you to" they threaten. "You are really ready to stoup down to Shlatt's leavel?" I ask them angrily. They hesitate for a moment, "If it means I can leave than yes!" They respond.

"Let me ask you something" Phil starts, "Are you one of the humans or one of us?" He questions. "I'm a human?" They respond confused. "Oh, so you've been here for a year at most? I have been here for almost a century" Phil says. The "leader" looks down, but after thinking they respond, "Well then you don't know what the outside is like anymore, and you probably don't have any family looking for you!"

"If you're still here than I don't think you do either" Tommy responds. They look over at him, "You're really siding with the monsters?" He questions angrily. "From how you're acting, I would say you're more if a 'monster'" he snaps back. "Arguing isn't going to get us anywhere" Ranboo cuts us off. "Oi, ender, you better back up"

"Don't even try. Anyway, we need to actually think of a plan, because sorry to say this, but I don't Shlatt will just take one of us" Ranboo points out.
