Tommy did as he was told and walked up to Schlatt before pointing his crossbow between Schlatt's eyes.

"Are you guys killing him?" Karl asked from above.

"I don't care what you do with him but whatever it is Tommy's not doing it." I said stepping forward. I was about to grab the bow from Tommy when someone grabbed my arm and pulled me back.

"What the hell Techno." I deadpanned. I hadn't even realized he had jumped down from the top. He didn't respond to me, only stared at me blankly through his boar mask.

"Victory or death Ophelia." Wilbur said like it was obvious.

"Yoo know...if I die this cuntry gos down with me." Schlatt said with a smirk. And now I understood why Techno had held me back. He was testing them. If they killed him and installed their own government it was fair game to retaliate.

"No it doesn't Schlatt." Tommy spat pridefully. Schlatt only began to laugh. He must know something.

"You could've had it Schlatt, you could have had it all." Quackity said with disappointment.

"This is it for you. This is the end." Tommy spoke and as much as I didn't want him killing this man, it had to be done. Some people began chanting 'kill him' while others were saying 'there had to be another way'.

"Everyone quiet." Wilbur shouted and when they did quiet enough coughing could be heard. "What do you have to say for yourself." Wilbur asked but Schlatt didn't respond and the coughing got louder.

"Schlatt?" Several people asked.

"Does anybody smell toast?" He questioned before falling to the ground and clutching his chest. A lot of people stood around confused, unsure what to do.

"He's having a stroke." I explained but before anyone could process what that means Schlatt let out one more cough as he fell over and went silent.

"Uhh." Someone voiced.

"Did he just have a heart attack?!" Tubbo screamed. Some people began to laugh while others continued questioning it. I looked over at Tubbo who seemed to have a mix of emotions. He was smiling but almost in a sad way as he laughed dryly at the situation. I wonder if he knows Schlatt was his father.

"We won!!" Tommy shouted and began to cheer while others joined him. I looked back at my brother and smiled. Everyone started to file out of the van and make their way towards the podium with Wilbur and Tommy leading the way. Dream and I hung back for a second.

"It's still not over is it?" I said looking up at him. He removed his mask and smiled at me.

"I take it Techno told you the plan?" I nodded. "I'm surprised you wouldn't be against it considering you'll be fighting Tommy."

"Tommy can hold his own in something like that now that he's not being targeted by our father. That was the main reason I always stuck so close to him." I explained.

"Ah. I see."

"Besides I'm not going to target him specifically but I already told them  that I would retaliate if they let this place go to shit and that's exactly what they did. So they get no sympathy from me." I said smirking. He smiled and kissed me softly before pulling back.

"Did I tell you I love you?" He questioned playfully.

"Many times." I said cupping his cheek and kissing him again.

"And I love you too." I said with our foreheads leaned against each other. "Come on. We should probably join them." I said pulling away and winking as I grabbed his wrist and dragged him with me out of the van. He quickly pulled his cracked mask down and followed suit. When we reached the podium Tubbo was standing at the mic and everyone was seated and waiting patiently for him to speak. Dream and I stood near the back next to Techno.
