dream smp: the new beginning

the day of the war

The blue sky was dotted with white clouds that drifted slowly across the country, the sun peeking out once in a while. It was quite a peaceful scene, opposite to what was going to happen. Waking up from his sleep, he got up and went out of his house. He was greeted by Ponk who was strolling down the Prime Path. Bad came along, waving at him to say hi. He waved back. "WELCOME BIG INNIT" A voice boomed from the behind. He jumped in a shock and saw Sam, sitting on his roof.

Whoosh. An arrow pricked his side, Tommy looked around and saw Karl, aiming another arrow at him. "Oh, it's Karl." Karl stared him down. Shrugging, Tommy turned around and went back into his house. To his utter surprise, Skeppy was inside, crafting some weapons. "UH SKEPPY!" He was once again distracted when a skeleton shot him. He was getting more annoyed by the minute. In two quick slashes, all that was left of the skeleton were bones and arrows.

Tommy looked through his ender chest. He had made some preparations for the war. Discs, weapons, potions were floating about in the ender chest. Taking out some obsidian, he went back out. "There's one first thing that we have to do," he sighed. There were people everywhere, some were talking to each other, some were just by themselves, preparing for the war. I don't know anybody, he thought to himself, but there is one man I still know. In this world, telepathy was common. Closing his eyes, he breathed in deeply. "Wilbur?" He hoped there would be a reply, as he knew what Wilbur had turned into. A maniac, wanting to blow up the country he built. "Ye?" His eyes lit up, maybe there was still hope. He walked along the Prime Path while people from all angles stared him down. "Come and meet me at the L'mantree."

Running down the stairs, he stopped at the tree. That tree had been there since the beginning. It had seen what the world had turned into over the past few months. From people united to divided, it had seen them all. Coincidentally, the L'mantree was the only tree left standing in the mishaps. Even though everyone was divided into different sides, they all agreed that no one will touch the tree. He took out the obsidian from his backpack and started building around it. If Wilbur did set off an explosion, the tree will remain intact.

Wilbur was walking across the grass. Today would be the day. The day they take back what is rightfully theirs. He has just emerged from the ravine where they called home. Pogtopia. He closed his eyes, walking to his destination. "Tommy. Listen, we can't keep talking." He breathed in deeply. "Now this is it. This is where we take it all back. Either that, or we get nothing. Are we ready?" He waited for a reply. "Yes, Wilbur." Slowly approaching, he sees Niki, walking down the stairs. She has been through thick and thin. Ever since the first day she had arrived, she joined him in his quest to take back L'manberg without a question.

He took out some lapis lazuli and gave her one. "Blue." He smiled at her. She blushed and gave him a loaf of bread in return. "Bread." They smiled at each other. All of this was seen by Tommy, who supported them dearly. "Aww," he looked at them, "you two are so cute." Wilbur took out his bow, preparing an arrow. He aimed it to the sky, releasing it. Tommy ran in between them. "Uh oh," he said, laughing. "Am I interrupting something?" Wilbur was walking backwards. He felt a sudden rush of pain when the arrow landed into his shoulder.

Niki was walking through a flower forest, the fragrance of the flowers stuck onto her. It was the day. She had been through a lot, lost her pet fox Fungi, lost the nation and so much more. She had been away, preparing for the war. Thus, the journey back to L'manberg was taking some time. She was tired, starving, creepers were chasing after her. At last, she came to Tommy's house where Tubbo and Quackity chatting. She climbed onto the roof and sat there, relaxing. She sees them walking away, quite excited. Fundy followed them behind. She sighed. This was where all happened. She, Tubbo and Tommy once watched the sunsets together. Suddenly, a hand reached out to her. Looking up, she sees Ponk smiling, giving her some pumpkin pie. She thanked him and ate it in a second.

She jumped down, landing on the grass. Taking some deep breaths, she went back to her base. It was the same old base, except the atmosphere had become colder. I miss you Fungi. She muttered to herself. Going through her chests, she took out some wheat and crafted loaves of bread.

At the dock, she sees a large pack of dogs. More accurately, Tubbo's dogs. They surrounded him, wagging their tales and licking his face. "Oh, you're here," he said, standing up. Niki followed him to the board, where Quackity, Techno and others were discussing who were on their sides and who wasn't. After a few hours, they worked out most of the people, leaving Skeppy, Bad and Jack to be in the middle. She waved goodbye while walking towards the L'mantree. She stopped in her tracks when she saw around 10 people sitting on the hill, stacked with armours and weapons. Slowly making her way down the stairs, she sees Wilbur smiling at her. They exchanged glances, he giving her some lapis lazuli and she giving him some bread. "Uh oh," she heard. There was Tommy, who supported them being together, even though they weren't actually together. Looking at the surroundings, this brings back to her memories.

Tommy, Niki and Wilbur were walking through the forest. Wilbur was explaining to Niki about everything that has happened. She hung on to every word he said, giving him her full attention. Suddenly, Tommy piped up. "Am I third-wheeling right now?" His face showed confusion, as he had said nothing for the past 20 minutes, just following Wilbur and Niki. Wilbur stopped and turned around, facing both of them. "No TommyInnit. This isn't a date, it's a revolution." Niki giggled, causing Tommy to laugh. Wilbur chuckled, continuing the journey.
