Summary: Tubbo finds the Control room and goes through with his plan.

He also warms up the ship so he can fly, his legs are tired from the running man!

Oh and Ranboo is awake.

--------------------------------

NOTES: Shits gonna get crazy here, chaos and a wrong move will happen.

------------------------------

He kinda has an idea of what he's doing.

He's sneaking down the halls to where he thinks the control room was. The labeling around the ship is written in old galactic, to prevent outsiders from knowing their way around the ship. Jokes on them, Tubbo studied that shit!

So finding his way to the control room was not hard. Wanna know what was hard? Trying to be QUIET. His feet aren't really the quietest of feet. Especially if he was in a hurry.

The metal floors don't help in the slightest either. He's had to duck back around corners because of his fucking hooved feet. Also, why are the halls and corridors so massive? Actually scratch that thought, when running past the cells he's seen some big ass animals. That'd explain the corridors.

If he could fly this would be easier, but the whole ship is moderated to be a cooler temperature for the dreamons. So this renders Tubbo flightless. At least, until he can warm up the ship.

The progress is slow and painful, having to wait for guards to look away or to turn the corner before he can slowly dash through them. He was hoping to open a vent but their vents are too high up for him.

Why are vents commonly put on the roof of hallways? This is really stressing him out man.

He waits in another corner, peeking over as some guards walk by, talking about a planet they were planning to land on for supplies. Oh this is perfect. If he can pull this off he can get an emergency escape pod and get him and his friends off this ship and to the planet surface.

Unfortunately he needed to follow those guards, they were headed to the control room. So sneaking again he goes. Walking quietly behind them, checking behind him in case any other dreamons happen to sneak up on him.

This goes for a couple more mites. He finally found a vent that's on the ground. He dashes to it and opens it up. Looking into the dusty ventilation, he just hopes he doesn't sneeze and alert them of his presence.

So down he goes, making sure the vent is propped up again before heading off. His wings are going to come out very dusty after this, but sacrifices must be made. In this case, it's his clean wings.

Crawling further into the vents, he does his best to avoid tripping any wires or setting off alarms in the vents. Luckily he doesn't need to be wary about wires, it seems like this ship is one of the newer models.

Techno would be disappointed.

So crawling he goes. Resisting urges to sneeze out the dust. They should install some vent cleaning. You'd think with newer models they'd already have something like that. But nope!

He reaches another vent, checking inside, it seems to be just a storage. While tempting, he has a mission to complete. He continues onward.

Even if he's in a vent that only he can fit, he'd rather not risk having any of the dreamons aware of something crawling in their vents. For his safety and theirs. He doesn't know what Tommy said when he hugged him close, but if his tone and growl of words were any indication, he'd kill them all.

This is why it's kinda scary being in a humans pack, Tommy doesn't look like an adult but he'd believe it if Tommy threatened anyone. Briefly he wonders if Tommy would accept Ranboo into his pack. He thinks Tommy would let him, after all maybe he'd see Ranboo as Tubbos... original guardian..

He hates that thought but it could work if he becomes hostile to Ranboo.

He had zoned out in his mind, thinking of how Tommy would react to Ranboo when he crawled face first into the control room vent. Perfect.

Popping open the vent after checking for any dreamons, he hops down, the ventilation being on the roof of the room. He quickly goes to the controls.

Bruh, what is he looking at? He has no idea what he's looking at. There's buttons of all shapes and sizes and colors. Is there a manual somewhere?

Some have symbols but can he really go on a bunch of symbols?

Yes he fucking can.

So, he stares at a lever that has old galactic on it. His eyes have always had issues when it comes to reading words. But he thinks it means temperature, it's currently on mid low.

So he cranks that one up to mid high, he's not gonna leave it on that but if he wants to do this quickly then mid high it is. He hopes humans can resist this amount of heat, it's not a lot, but you never know.

—-------------------------------------------

Is it just him, or did the cell get warmer?

He was waiting, sitting on his bed and folding the rags 'cause he had nothing better to do than wait and try to distract himself from thinking about Tubbo being caught– and nope, he started thinking about it again. No no, Tubbo is fine, Tubbo is smart and small. Kid can do it.

But it was definitely getting warmer, not enough to make him uncomfortable, if anything it's welcomed. The goosebumps that have been nearly constant on his arms were finally gone. It felt very nice.

Was this Tubbos doing? Why is he raising the temperatures in the cells?

Something fell in the corner of his eye. He looks over and sees... a hanging flower petal? A petal had fallen. It looks.. Dry.. wrinkled even. It's wilted. In his time in the cells, he's never seen anything but the spores fall from the ceiling.

Wait–

Another petal falls, then another. An entire flower head fell to the ground.

The flowers are sensitive! He's raising the heat so the flowers wilt and die, no flowers means no spores, no spores means no more sleep!

Wait.

No more sleep...

Oh shit wait.

—---------------------------------

Tubbo hears knocking on the control room door, then shouts, angry shouts. He's running out of time. He quickly opens up a panel underneath the controls and buttons. He grabs the biggest wire he can see and even a couple others. And he starts pulling with all his might. Sparks started to fly from his pulling.

He sees the door start to open and he gives the wires a good kick with his feet before falling backwards, ripping the wires clean out of the panel right as the door opens.

Power to half the ship shuts down, lights going out and doors releasing their power and opening up doors everywhere. For newer models, they are shit, Techno really was right.

"You filthy pathetic excuse of an insect!" one of the guards dove for him. He quickly moves and uses the guards body as a launch pad and flies himself back into the vent, crawling as quickly as fast as he can back through the vents.

Luckily he doesn't have to be quiet, why?

*CRASH*

Well, the flowers are gone now.

So that means–

—---------------------------------------------

"–AHHHH WHAT THE FUUUUCK!?"

THERE ARE SO MANY FUCKING ANIMALS.

The minute those doors opened he peeked out the hall to look, then ducked back in, a horde and stampede of different alien animals went zooming by, crashing into each other and stomping on the ground.

The animals were panicked and any guards that dared to enter were immediately crushed by the animals, Tommy made the smart decision by waiting in the cell.

The animals cared not for anything other than getting out. Running rampant around the ship now that half the ship's doors are wide open, letting the animals roam everywhere.

While Tommy wasn't worried for himself, he was panicking about Tubbo being out there, he could get crushed in a second. And that image is doing nothing to calm him. He needs to find him, but he can't until the big animals leave the corridor for him to no longer be in risk of becoming a pancake.

Once the biggest animal has left he steps out of the cell, not all of the animals woke up but the bigger guys did. One even looked like a rhino.

He hears shouts and more crashing. He backs into his cell again, let them think he ran with the animals and all. The shouting gets louder and so does a familiar buzzing sound. Tubbo?

He sees Tubbo flying– he's flying now! And he prepares to walk out the cell to greet him, but stops when one of those aliens– the fucker has 4 arms– runs for him and manages to catch him in it's claws and pin him down. The claws nick Tubbo on his side and he buzzes painfully.

Tommy's eyes narrow down on the blue tipped claws and Tubbos blue injury, his blood is blue...

He's bleeding...

That fucking bastard HURT TUBBO.

Adrenaline floods through his veins as he tunnel visions on the guard.

He lunges for the bastard.

—---------------------------------------

"GOT YOU NOW YOU USELESS FUR COAT!" The dreamon had a painful grip on Tubbo, pinning him with his weight he was nearly crushing Tubbo. This dreamon was some Elite species of dreamon, he had 4 arms, long and sharp claws. And one of them dipped blue from digging into Tubbos' side.

The dreamon leers above him, claws poised ready to tear his head off, "How are you even alive? We tossed you in with the human!" it spat out at him, Tubbo can barely reply, he can't breathe.

Then, out of fucking NOWHERE. Something crashed into the Dreamon, ripping him off of Tubbo and colliding with the window cell that held a slowly waking Ranboo.

It was Tommy. Tommy had the dreamon held against the window, a crack formed behind the elite, green blood seeping into the cracks from the force Tommy had collided into him.

If Tubbo thought Tommy was scary before, it was nothing to how he looked now, Tommy still sporting his bruises and injuries stood proudly against the dreamon, his hand around the aliens neck. He can't see Tommys eyes, but he can imagine the look of death in them.

Tommy snarls something, growling lowly in words that no other alien can understand before tossing the alien to the side, bloodied neck and all.

Tubbo sees in the corner of his eyes Ranboo waking up, opening his eyes before widening when he sees Tommy standing in front of Tubbo. He doesn't get to see what his expression meant when the guard gets up and pulls out a blaster. Attempting to aim at the human.

Tommy doesn't even give the man a chance before he lunges again and pins the guard down, taking the gun and smashing the alien in the face. Before Tubbo could call for Tommy he feels a hand on his arm, he looks up and sees that it's Ranboo up and awake, he managed to take off the muzzle and ropes.

He's staring at the human in horror and open fear.

More guards come through, all looking injured and hurt thanks to the rampaging animals running everywhere. Tommy lifts up the gun and starts shooting them, charging at them. He imagines that Tommy wants to eliminate the closest threats and these guards are them.

Or maybe to get his anger out, honestly it could be either.

He feels a tug and then arms sweeping him up and running the other way.

What the fuck is Ranboo doing?

"Wait– Ranboo stop! He's–" Ranboo cuts Tubbo off, speaking urgently.

"We have to get out of here fast Tubbo, I don't know how your alive but thank the void you are, with the dreamons distracted we can escape unnoticed"

"Yea I know, but Ranboo– I'm not leaving him"

Ranboo glances down at him at his defensive tone, but doesn't stop running, dodging a horned animal that came charging the other way. "Who Tubbo? Was there another prisoner? Did they save you from the human?"

Tubbo buzzes and hisses angrily trying to get out of his friend's grip. "Yea, that friend was Choo-mi! He's the human–"

"That human that's currently going on a killing frenzy? Tubbo he'll kill us–" disbelief was clear in his voice

Tubbo shouts at him, tired of being cut off. "You're not fucking listening to me! He was trying to–!"

A yell filled with so much fucking rage he shivered in fear. He also heard a tone of fear and worry if he lingered on the voice. He knows exactly who that voice belongs to, and he thinks Ranboo just fucked up really badly.

—----------------------------------------------------

He goes to get rid of the crowd of aliens, killing them, he knows he did. He'll feel horrified by his actions later, right now he has to keep these guys from laying another fucking claw on Tubbo. He takes a couple of hits but he can't feel a damn thing.

Adrenaline is one hell of a drug.

He shoots until his gun can't shoot anymore, by that time, the majority of the guards are dead or have fled. He stands there for a second, taking in deep breaths. He goes to inspect a corpse and finds a weird futuristic and fancy knife. He inspects it before pocketing it, could be useful in the future. Calming down from his rush of energy, he turns around, ready to grab Tubbo and head to an escape pod that they always show in movies.

But he stares at where Tubbo should be– he– where is he?

Where is he?!

Tubbo wouldn't leave him, he knows he wouldn't, unless...

His eyes spot a trail of blue blood, leading to the other side of the corridor. His eyes narrowing, the adrenaline flowing through him still.

"TUBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!"

He doesn't think he's ever been this fucking angry in his life.

—-------------------------------------------

Notes: Tommy is fucking angry right now, like, might give himself a heart attack.

Poor Ranboo, has no idea what he just did. You poor fool.

fun fact: Tommy was originally supposed to turn around, spot Ranboo, then catch up to Ranboo and pin him down, but now instead Ranboo gets a head-start!
