𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐬 (Technoblade x Reader) (Completed)

21

You didn't go back to sleep when Techno left. You had laid back down in bed, head buried in his pillow and curled up in the blankets. You ended up getting out of bed about an hour after you had laid back down and You got dressed. You'd forgone the vest you normally wore and settled for your capelet rather than your heavy blue coat. You needed to check on Carl and Bob and make sure they were alright. You pulled your armor on and grabbed your weapons, your sword and your crossbow and you made your way outside with your animals feed in tow. 

You walked over to Carl first, smiling as he immediately trotted closer, as close as his lead let him. You pulled a golden apple out of your satchel and you held it out. He took it immediately, thrilled with the sweet treat he knew you'd given him. You left his feed next to him, scratching between his ears as he leaned down to eat. You left him alone after that and you carried the other bucket of feed to where Bob was in the old pen. He was pacing around until he heard your steps and he perked up, letting out an excited moo. 

"Hello!" You cooed, opening the fence and letting him trot out towards you. You wanted him closer to your base, especially since there was a risk of him getting slaughtered like the others. You lead him to the oak tree you had sat under with Techno what felt like years ago and you let him roam for a little while while you were outside with him. "Is this better, sweetheart?" 

You set the feed down and you jog back over to the old pen to get the almost empty water bucket. You cleaned it in the lake and filled it up once more, carrying it back to the little calf for him to drink.  You lingered around him as he ate, looking around the area. It was peaceful when nobody was around, though you were still on edge. You couldn't relax, anyone could show up at any moment and attack you or your animals out of spite. You sat down against the tree trunk, pulling an apple and a small knife out of your satchel and began cutting pieces off to eat. 

Bob meandered over with big, kind eyes, sniffing the piece of fruit in your hands. He had feed on his face, ever the messy eater and you rolled your eyes, smiling fondly. "Here-" You sliced a piece off the apple and offered it to him, which he took with zero hesitation.

The following couple of days weren't any different than the first, other than the fact that you struggled to sleep. You would doze off for a couple of hours and then wake up to the terrifying feeling of eyes on you, of someone being in the base with you, waiting for the perfect moment to kill you if they deemed it necessary. Techno hadn't contacted you and it stressed you out far more than you ever imagined it would. He had been radio silent since he left and you were struggling to not drown in your near constant state of panic. 

You'd went outside on the third day, planning to harvest the wheat that was ready and feed it to your two animals and enjoy your simple breakfast with Bob when you heard something strange in distance. 

"Hello?" A voice called. It was echo-y and soft, a familiar voice you'd heard before. 

"Wilbur?" You asked, searching around. He was... he was dead wasn't he? Were you going crazy? Was this a dream? Suddenly a floating apparition came into view. It was Wilbur yet his complexion was grey, his hair tucked into a maroon beanie. He wore a yellow sweater and he seemed... happy to see you which came as a surprise. You must be dreaming. 

Wilbur said your name, smiling excitedly. His feet touched the ground and he immediately settled down across from you, admiring the calf who was attempting to steal the rest of your fruit. You let him have it, too bewildered to think about eating anymore. 

"Wilbur? I... Phil said you died.." 

"Oh! I did!" His voice was far too cheery for the dark topic, almost unnerving as he smiled brightly. "But I've come back as a ghost! Tommy calls me Ghostbur."
