66. Make Your Choice

Start from the beginning
                                    

"Good" I turn my attention back to the group in front of me. "I ask you one last time Tommy. Surrender now or watch Tubbo die"

"Foolish!" Quackity yells making them all jump. "Why are you just standing there? Help us! Kill them!"

"I—I can't" he spreads his hands in a hopeless gesture. "I can't kill them"

"Why not?"

He takes a deep breath and glances uneasily at Nightmare.

"I'll die"

Quackity turns towards him again with a frustrated look.

"Not you too! I thought you care about Las Nevadas! Purpled betrayed me! Now you?!"

"Las Nevadas blew up! It's gone! We need to focus on the task at hand here!" He yells back.

"I worked so hard to build Las Nevadas! I made sure that the casino was running so money could continue pouring in—"

Quackity goes quiet.

Foolish stares in shock, realization slowly spreading across his face.

"It was never about us, it was always about you" he says in a near whisper. "You just wanted wealth and power"

"No! I needed you! But I won't need you anymore if you don't fight with us! You can't just stand there and be useless!"

"If that's how you feel," he turns, trident in hand. "Then I'm done. I have my own land, I have my own goals. I don't need you"

With that, he tridents away.

I pull their attention back to Tubbo.

"Tommy, I'm not playing like I did during our last battle. I'm not playing around. I will kill Tubbo, and I won't revive him"

"Tommy—," Tubbo stutters out. "Please surrender, if you don't, you'll all die. I saw the vision. I saw you all die. Please, swallow your pride and do this for all of us, not just you"

Tommy stares at his best friend. He's too proud and stubborn to surrender but, he also doesn't want to his best friend to die.

"Make your choice Tommy," I press the blade against Tubbo's neck so a thin line of blood is scratched. "Tubbo dies, or you surrender"

"Tommy," Tubbo closes his eyes. "Please"

Tommy turns to the rest of his allies, they're all shaking their heads.

"We're playing Dream's game again" Quackity says.

"As long as he gets to play, he wins" Fundy says.

I start to count. The pressure is on.

"10"

Their eyes lock onto me.

"9"

Nightmare shifts to pull out her ender chest. Depending on the outcome, reaching to grab a flower, or the treaty.

"8"

The Allies continue to disagree and say that they should keep fighting.

"7"

Tommy grips his sword.

"6"

Jack buries his face in his hands.

"5"

Tubbo squeezes his eyes shut, preparing to die.

"4"

"Dream," Tommy finally looks at me. "I want to negotiate, we cease fire but stay at war"

Not good enough. Not even close.

"3"

Tommy's breathing becomes faster. Tubbo opens his eyes and looks at his friend.

"2"

I grip the axe tighter. I will kill him. No mercy.

"1"

"Wait! Wait! Stop!" Tommy rushes forward and pushes the axe away from Tubbo. I shove him away with a growl.

"Dream," Tommy looks at me. "I would like to surrender"

I smile.

"Nightmare," she reaches into her ender chest and pulls out a piece of paper.

She walks over and hands it to Tommy. He looks at her with a look of pure hatred.

"Read it aloud" I smirk.

"Treaty:

I, Dream, as leader of The Allies, will cease and fire and remain neutral with The Resistance. My allies will remain neutral and it should be known that no attacks on The Resistance will be under my command but rather by the impulse of the individual.

Other groups that participated during this war including Technoblade, Philza, Niki, and Ranboo, will not be directly affiliated with me or my allies and a separate peace agreement must be arranged.

Signed: Dream, Nightmare, Sapnap, Punz, George, Karl, Bad, Skeppy, Ant, HBomb, Eryn, Puffy, Eret, Ponk, Wilbur, Micheal, Callahan

I, Tommy Innit, as the leader of The Resistance, surrender and will cease fire and end war with The Allies. The Resistance will remain neutral with the Allies and not continue to create new factions throughout the Smp. No new countries. The Resistance understands that they will accept full responsibility for the causation of the war.

Signed:________________________________"

"What?!" Tommy sputtered angrily. "This isn't fair!"

"You lost, you don't get a say in what the treaty says. I made it as fair as possible" I say, truthfully I did. Well Y/N convinced me.

Tommy glances at the rest of his allies.

"I guess this is it boys" he pulls out a quill and ink and dips the feather in the dark ink.

They all takes turns writing on the paper.

Signed: Tommy Innit, Tubbo, Fundy,
Jack Manifold, Quackity
