Karl's POV
After we finished eating breakfast, Punz had to go to some stuff

"Want me to come?" I offered, but Punz shook his head

"You may be still ill, I don't risk it" Punz replied

I sigh, "Alright...At least Tubbo will stay with me"

Tubbo looked away, "I promised Tommy I would spend time with him...But I can text him we can see each another day-"

"No! I mean no, that's fine Tubbo, just be safe alright?" I say

Tubbo smiled at me, "Thanks"

"We'll I'd love to see this family love keep going, I have to leave so bye" Punz chuckled

He kissed me goodbye and ruffled Tubbo's hair. He then left

Tubbo looked at me and gave me look that I know too well

"What is it?" I asked, staring at him

"Karl and Punz kissing on a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G, first come love then comes marriage then the bed-"

I quickly came up to Tubbo and he ran, laughing. I chased him around while he kept singing, my face bright red

I managed to capture Tubbo in a room. Then we heard some knocking in the front door. Tubbo took his chance and ran to the door.

"Get back here you prick" I yelled

Tubbo opened the door and there stood Tommy. Tubbo hid behind his friend. Tommy was confused and concerned. He tried to have a calm expression , but he was giggling

Tommy looked at me then laughed, "Are you alright Karl? Your a bit red"

"It's because Punz fu-"

"Tubbo I swear!" I snapped as Tubbo kept giggling. Tommy soon got the message and laughed

"Alright let's go Tubbo" Tommy said, waving bye to me

Tubbo grabbed Tommy's hand and they went off to another adventure. I smiled as they soon disappeared to the distance. I closed the door and decided to clean up a bit

Punz's POV
I was exploring for a bit, I just needed a few supplies for building my home, but I felt someone watching me

I ingored it of course, but it soon annyoyed me.

"Alright you can come out" I growled

Nothing

"What scared of facing me?" I smirked, "F*cking pathetic"

I then felt someone behind me a few feet away. I doged an arrow that was going straight to my back.

I quickly spawned my enchanted nethrite axe, "Hey! Cheap move"

I turned around and saw someone trying to knock me out. He was wearing a black hoodie with a mask similar to Ponk's but it was black. His eye's looked famailir...

I ignored it and doged the attack. Then kicked them in the gut. They hugged their stomach but then raced at me again. Before I can swing my axe at them, I felt pain in my left arm.

In my left arm was an arrow sticking through my arm, "Sh*t..."

Then another arrow went to my left shoulder

I grunted in pain but managed to keep fighting. The other person I was fighting was now holding a diamond enchanted sword. Our weapons kept colliding with each other.

I tried to punch and kick him, but he blocked them. At the same time I had to doge arrows. Not the fairest fight , but I'll be alright

I managed to punch the masked guy in the face. He grunted in pain as I heard a small faint mumble, "Sh*t"

The voices sound way familiar , but I ingored it.

"Alright...enough games, who the freak are you two?" I asked, pressing my axe to the attacker's neck

His eye's glared at me and then it hit me. Those familiar Amber eye's. Before I could say anything, I felt strong impact behind my neck. Then I blacked out.

Sam's POV
I couldn't shake my dream of last night. I was at the prison preparing Dream's meal and I was stumbling a bit making it.

I met the God or protecter of the server and his or they sister, Drista. I can't believe their family along side that brown hair male.

I sigh as I went to Dream's cell. Once I was in front of his cell. He was just lost in thought. Not saying anything at me, just hugging his legs while he sat in his bed.

"Dream, your food is here" I say putting the food tray on a small table in the right corner.

He just stayed quite.

Normally I wouldn't care and just walk away , but I didn't. I could tell he was sad even though his smiling mask was on.

Can't believe I'm gonna do this, "Is...everything alright?"

Dream looked up, "...Why would you care?"

"Your right, Normally I wouldn't care at all for you, but your my prisoner and you proved to me that your loyal... I suppose"

I approached Dream, "Can I sit here?"

"I guess" Dream mumbled

I sat down on the bed side as Dream just said nothing

"...How was your...um freedom?" I asked, breaking the silence

"It was nice...some stuff changed, but I like it.." Dream spoke

"...What about your siblings?" I asked

Dream hesitated before responding, "Oh right...you saw...We had a good time...Besides..."

"Besides what?" I asked

"Well...I don't know should I tell you, but...Karl broke up with his previous lovers" Dream spoke, I could hear a bit anger in his voice

"Wait... So your mad at Karl for his choice?" I asked, annyoyed at Dream for thinking that

"What?! No! I'm happy that he's no longer part of that relationship-"

"Why? Did they so something wrong?" I intruppted Dream

Dream nodded, "My friend that I trusted with my brother hurt him, he...slapped him, Karl said it was no big deal, but I, Tubbo, and Punz disagreed and they broke up"

I nodded, a bit frustrated with Sapnap, "What about Quackity?"

"I don't know much about him but he took mainly Sapnap's side" Dream explains

"So he's now single?" I asked

Dream punched the wall which startled me, "Nope...Punz made a 'extreme move' on him and now there lovers, but here's the thing I don't trust him"

I understood what he meant, Punz did ratted him out, "True"

"So here's the thing Sam the Warden...If you see Punz hurt Karl or Karl is upset, either let me free and let me beat him up or you can do it for me" Dream snarled, which caught me off edge

"O-oh I don't think I can do that..." I apologized but I smiled that Dream tried to make sure his siblings are safe

Dream scoffed at my response, "Right I forgot that"

We stayed quite until I got up, "Well I'll be going then...Do you think your siblings will visit?"

I then wished I didn't say that because they would maybe try to break Dream out.

Dream stayed quite, "I hope but I doubt it..."

"And why's that?" I asked

"I really regret the action I did to them..."

"Wait...did you hurt them?-" I asked but Dream stopped me

"What?! No! Of course not, I'm trying to be a good older brother, it's just that...I forgot to say good bye to them..." Dream said, sad

I felt bad for him then idea struck me, "I gotta go Dream brb"

Dream was confused and tried to talk , but I was long gone.

I pulled out my phone and went to do something to the picture I took of the three of them, napping together.

Dream's POV
As Sam left without saying much. I sigh as I went to the small table that had mu food.

As I sat down on the ground (there was no seat) and ate my food I was wondering on why Sam gave me a proper meal. Normally he would just toss me bread and meat.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy that Sam is treating me different than usual, but I feel like I kinda deserve the rough treatment since the actions I did to make the SMP great was...horrible

Then I remembered last night. Karl dying in my hands. His blood all over myself and on the floor. Drista saw all of it as well.

I soon lost my appetite and moved the tray away. I crossed my arms and felt my eye's tear up.

I kept mumbling that he was okay, and that he is strong but Dream XD would torment him through the whole day.

"He's okay...he's fine...He's with Punz and Tubbo, it's alright..." I kept mumbling, but the possible actions that Dream XD can do to him was endless.

He died with swords poking out of hus body...would that happen to my brother?

I felt sick and went over to my bed. I laid down and tried to sleep, but the images of Karl dying in multiple ways was haunting me. Every time Karl died I would hear Dream XD laugh.

I covered my ears and hoped that Tubbo and Punz would protect him. Better than I can.

Hello Palettes! Sorry for the late update, I was still sleeping, sorry. Anyway's I hoped you enjoyed this chapter. Looks like there'll be drama soon, who knows. Anyway take care and self love your self. Till we meet again.
