Dream POV

    A cold breeze swept past me as I stood at the boardwalk with Karl, Quackity, Skeppy, Bad, and Ranboo. Dusk was slowly settling in over the bay as I looked out into the ocean.

      "Where are those morons?" Quackity grumbled as Ranboo checked his phone.

"Language" Bad whispered quietly. 

"Fuck shit dick pussy bitch ass cu-"

"QUACKITY STOPPP."

       "What? Am I not aloud to talk now?!"

        Bad glared at him and looked as if he were about to say something when Tommy and Tubbo ran up, out of breath.

"S-sorry we're late." Tubbo exhaled, catching his breath.

"Good save, these two were about to go at each other's throat." Karl replied, gesturing towards Quackity and Bad, in which Quackity stuck up his middle finger at Karl.

   "Quackity..." Bad glared.

"Oh you wanna go Bad?" Quackity responded, jumping into a fighting stance.

      I step between the two, "Lets get tickets" I say, gesturing towards the entrance of the carnival.

"Yeahhh!!!" Tommy cheers, and then runs towards the ticket booth, Tubbo rushing after him. 

    The rest of us walk over, and my mind goes back to George and Sapnap. I hope they're okay.

         "Dream go, we'll be fine!" Sapnap says." 

"But... what if-"

        "Dream, nothing will happen, we'll just chill, float about as ghosts do, and we'll be here when you get back!"

"And, if you ever need anything, we're just a word away. Same goes to us, if something happens, we'll find you." George added on.

    "Its just.... what if something happens?"

"Dream, look at me." I look at George.

"We will be okay, alright? Plus, a carnival is no place for us. We won't be able to talk without it looking weird, and we won't be able to keep up with you guys."

"But-"

"Dream, go, have fun, go live your life 'cause..." George paused and gave a sad chuckle. "Me and Sap sure as hell can't anymore."

"You sure you'll be okay?"

     "Yes! Now go have fun!" George lightly hitting the top of my head.

"Dream. You good man?" 

   I looked to see Karl. 

"Oh yeah sorry. Just thinking."

   "Alright. I'm here if you need anything."

"Thank you Karl."

"Of course, thats what friends are for, are they not?" Karl handed me a small roll of tickets. "Now cmon, we got games to get scammed by."

-

     Me, Karl, Bad, and Skeppy sat at a picnic table, which was covered in churro wrappers, cups, napkins, and a little blue dinosaur Bad gave to Skeppy after he won the water gun game.

     The sun had set a while ago, and now the entire fair was lit up, bright colorful lights shining left and right. The others had dashed off to some ride, but the rest of us decided to stay back.

   Skeppy and Bad were busy talking about a new idea they had for their minecraft world, while me and Karl were just looking at the rides and stands, taking in the energetic chaos. 

    The smell of elephant ears and popcorn filled the air, as the sounds of people screaming on the rides could be heard. A little kid was crying about some prize they didn't win, and different buzzing and dinging sounds echoed from different games and booths.

    "Dream." Karl spoke quietly, as if he didn't want people around him to hear.

"Yeah?" I responded, looking at him curiously.

"Do you see that guy over there?" He nodded over towards quieter area.

 "Who?" I asked slightly confused.

 "Older man, has a cap and a gray coat on."

I looked around, but couldn't see anyone like that. "No, why?"

"I was right." Karl muttered.

"Oh." The puzzle pieces clicked in my head. "Is he..."

"Dead? Yeah." Karl said, looking back.

    "You really can't escape them can you." I said, glancing at him.

 He scoffed. "I really can't. I always see them, whether they're a shadow figure, outline,  or whether they're their human self."

    I feel someone slap me on the back and I turn to see Tommy.

"Big D! Big K!"

 "Hey Tommy. How was the ride?" I ask, chuckling.

"It was sick! I wanted to go again but Quackity and Ranboo didn't want to." He said, rolling his eyes.

  "Speaking of which, where are they?" Karl asked.

"Like I bloody know." Tommy shrugged.

"I'm gonna be sick." Quackity said, walking up with Tubbo and Ranboo, looking a little green.

"Holy Muffins Quackity you don't look so well." Bad said, concern flashed across his face.

"No shit sherlock." Quackity muttered. 

"Language!"

"DON'T LANGUAGE ME YOU DUM- Oh god." Quackity rushed off to the nearest trash can, hand over mouth.

Tommy bursted out laughing. "Karma I guess." Ranboo shrugged.
