[10]

Just like she was informed, Y/N was taken out of the prison-like room she now called hers and was escorted downstairs by George. He made sure to tie her wrists together, making sure they extra tight, for a reason she'd probably never know. He led her down the hallways, tugging her behind him closely and quite roughly - enough to make her hands ache. She stared at his back, pondering on what she'll be told in this meeting. Nothing good, knowing these people. Dream's words from earlier still remained in her head, swirling like an ongoing spiral. 'All will be explained later in the meeting you'll be attending, as well as a few other rules we now have put into place'. What he meant by rules, she still didn't know, but it had remained in her head all afternoon. Whatever it was, she just hoped it didn't involve her friends.

When she snapped out of her thoughts, she realised she was now stood beside George, staring at the large doors of the meeting room. He nudged her forward, now taking his place behind her as she furrowed her brows at his unnecessary roughness.

Jerk...

She returned her gaze towards the door in front of her, hesitantly using her bound hands to push it open the best she could. The girl peered inside the room, taking in the surroundings in the room, her jaw opening at the sights of it. It was huge. There was a large table in the centre with a bunch of chairs surrounding it and a large lamp from the ceiling. At the back of the room, was their giant flag which draped across the wall showing off all its glory. She couldn't help but stare at it in disgust, taking a few steps into the large room. Sitting at the table was Sapnap and Eret, both looking bored as they waited for their leader to arrive. Sapnap was messing with a lighter in his hand, occasionally flicking it on and off whilst Eret nervously tapped his foot, already feeling awkward about being near his former friend again.

Behind her, George lead her to sit down at one of seats opposite the head one, before taking his own seat next to Sapnap, already starting an argument with him. Sometimes she wondered if they were actually adults. Whilst the pair bickered, she couldn't help but stare around the room again, still in awe at how stunning it looked. She had to admit - even if this was the enemies base - they did have style. Across the table, Eret stared at the girl as her eyes trailed around the room in awe with a small smile on his face. He, too, was like this when he first arrived here; gaping at the castle. This truly was nothing like what they had in L'manburg.

The sound of a door opening caused everyone to stop what they were doing and grow silent. At the entrance was Dream, his mask positioned perfectly in the centre of his face as per usual. He slowly walked towards the table, removing his dirty armour in the meantime and dropping them on the floor. Y/N's eyes followed his every move, never once leaving him as he made his way around her and to the opposite side of the table, where he sat himself. She didn't know why but something about him seemed off. Well, weirder than usual anyway. He looked more sinister and serious, his arms crossed over his chest after removing his hood from over his head. Messy dark blonde locks were revealed, hanging messily over the front of his mask and reaching just above where his brows should be. His posture was relaxed, though his manner seemed unreadable. He definitely didn't look like he was in a good mood, and didn't look as though he was in a bad one either. He looked almost... smug.. The more she thought about his attitude the more it made her feel anxious and tense on what he had planned. He really was a strange character.

"Evening."

He greeted to everyone, making himself more comfortable in his seat. Everyone responded with their own "hi's" and "hey's" whereas Y/N remained silent, her eyes trained on the table in front of her. "As you all know, we're here to discuss the new rules that we must have now that we have a new guest." he says, referring to the girl herself. 'Guest' he says... what a joke. She rolls her eyes slightly at his words, but continued to listen, not wanting to start a pointless argument at this moment.
