Chapter 4

"That's all cool and all but, what's with the giant metal container."

Both boys turned to face the container. It looked like the kind of one you'd get at a junkyard.

Tubbo grinned nervously.
"Supply crate most likely, there is no reason for a thing like this to be in a green class area otherwise."

George sighed.
"You're probably right, we aren't missing any subjects as far as I'm aware as well."

Tubbo's head immediately perked with interest.
"So, have you tried entering any of their containment areas, they're green class, right? So they're practically harmless!"

"Green class subjects are still to be considered dangerous and no, I haven't done anything with them yet, we have to be careful.", George mumbled, scratching the back of his neck.

As George started pacing towards the random container, Tubbo stuffed his hand in his pocket and uncrumpled a small paper ball that was inside.

"Codename Tommy seems pretty weak, says here he is pretty much just an average 16 year old boy who's really really good a physical education."

Tubbo smirked.

"He could potentially believe and act like a normal boy too, we could make a friend."

George was hardly paying attention to Tubbo. He began banging his fist on the container.

"It might not be a supply create, it honestly sounds like there is nothing in it at all.", said George calmly

Tubbo shrugged.
"Storage unit? Who cares George, let's go see Tommy."

George glanced back at Tubbo, uncertain.
"Can we open it first, then go see-"

George felt a bit annoyed that they gave a subject a human name. He scrunched up his nose.

"-Tommy".

Tubbo let out an over exaggerated sigh, go make it as obvious as possible that he didn't care about the container at all.

George managed to find some large wire cutters in the backroom of the Green class facility and rushed back over to Tubbo and the container. Before opening it, an idea came to Georges mind.

He walked to the side of the container and knocked on it three times. Tubbo gave George an uncertain look.

They both waited in silence until another noise broke it. A faint, weak noise.

Bang bang bang

Both boys glanced at each other and both were very pale.

There was someone- or something in there.

Surprisingly, it was Tubbo who first moved towards the container and put his head near it.

"Hi, my name is Tubbo"

George was unsure of this.

"Are you stuck? Do you need help?"
Tubbos voice was sweet and innocent.

After what felt like a whole minute of waiting, a voice trembled back.

"Yes, please."

[NICK AND ERET POV]

"Where's Dream?"

Both Eret and Nick were dumbfounded. They looked through all the containment areas and found nothing at all.
No Dream.
Though it was only now that they started to realise, fear was growing fast. The reality of it was starting to kick in.

"Eret, what if- he escaped."

The most powerful Subject, without a leash or a cage. He could be anywhere. The other could be dead already for all this knew.

The others could be dead.

Nick's started running. As much as he wanted to see if George was okay, the closest facility was Amber so they had to go there first.

Eret followed swiftly behind.

[WILBUR POV]

We were just minding our own business when it happened. Skeppy- or should I say 'Zak', was amazed by what he insisted was a Furry. The Furry, also to be referred to as Codename Fundy, looked almost depressed. Zak had opened the noise tunnel so Fundy could hear him and started asking if he identified as a furry, I couldn't help but notice how troubled the fox was, how he seemed to sink more into despair with each word Zak threw at him.

Poor guy.

Then out of nowhere, we heard sprinting, 2 or more people bolting down the hallway linking the facilities.

"Za- Skeppy, close the hatch."

Zak shut the hatch and turned to me

"Someone is coming right?",
Zak said quickly

I nodded as we stared at the door, hearing the steps getting louder and louder until-

The door slammed open, there stood a gasping Sapnap.

"Oh my God you're both alright"

Sapnap looked exhausted. He also seemed scared. When someone from the Red class comes running over to see if we are alright- that's definitely not a good sign. Terrible actually.

I moved a step towards him
"Is there something we should be aware of, Sapnap?"

"Oooh well uh- one of the Subjects haven't arrived yet and we just got a bit worried that they may have escaped, but fear not! Since I'm sure it's just a delay in the shipping of it."

Sapnap gave the poorest smile I had ever observed.

Zak decided that we needed his unwanted input on the situation.

"Come on guys, I'm sure everything is A-okay just relax, if the subject doesn't show up in a phew days then run down that hall and worry everyone, not the moment you notice.
Skeppy a voice was so lax it was infuriating.

I stepped in.
"Ignore him, it was right you got worried, it is a missing Red class after all. Go check on the Greens, I'd say to stay quiet about the whole missing subject thing to them, at least until your sure it's already arrived, you gave us quite the scare."

After a little catching up talk about the amber subjects, the Red class members left, I hadn't even noticed that Eret had been just standing at the door frame without saying a thing.

What a weird guy.
