Chapter 6 'Traitor!'
"Hey Dream..."
"Hm?"
"Are- Are we doing the right thing?"
"What do you mean?"
"Y'know being on Wilbur's side... He is the one that started the fight, and with pretty stupid reasoning too..."
"Do you doubt me George?"
"No but-"
"Then there should be no problem."
"Kathrine doesn't really deserve this.. She's going through so much already... Trying to help Tommy, trying to stop this war, helping Shubble recover from whatever happened to her."
"Whats happening to Kathrine is irelevent."
"What?"
"Whats it matter anyway? If anyone from home dies I'm just revive them."
"What about anyone from here?"
"Who cares about them? There not our problem. Plus a little bit of strategy planning is fun. Think of it as a game."
"A game!? People are going to get hurt! Is this all just a 'game' to you!?"
"Calm down."
"No! This is messed up! You're messed up! You're psychotic!"
"I prefer creative."
"How are you not upset by any of this!?"
"You don't matter enough to upset me."
"Get out."
"What?"
"Get out of the Ocean Empire and don't come back!"
"Fine."

***Lizzie's POV***
I had heard arguing from where I was stood in my room. I didn't want to invade so I stayed there until I heard George say "Get out of the Ocean Empire and don't come back!". I was confused but I stayed still until I heard quiet sobs from the other side of my door. I quietly walked out and saw George sitting on the ground sobbing. I sat down next to him and silently wrapped my arms around his trembling body. We sat there in silence for a while, but it wasn't an akward silence, it was a calming silence.
"He's gone huh...?" I asked about 15 minutes after George had fully calmed down.
"I told him I thought what we were doing was wrong, and he said..."
"He said...?" I questioned with a soft tone.
"He said I didn't matter enough to upset him..." He said tears once more pricking his eyes.
"Your right. This is wrong. And you have a choice. Change sides. Join Kathrine." I muttered.
"Maybe I will... Though you say it as if you don't have a choice." He chuckled dryly, though I could tell there was no really laughter behind it.
"I don't. When Joel and I got married we agreed to side together through anything. As long as he's on Wilbur's side, I have to be too." I explained.
"Oh... I'm sorry."
"Don't be. Its not the worst. He'll come around."
George nodded.
"You should head to bed. Its getting late." I said standing.
He once again nodded.
"Night George."
"Night Lizzie."
