TW: Death, swearing

Beware, beware, be skeptical
Of their smiles, their smiles of plated gold

"Tommy," someone approached the blond from behind he hadn't gone far, only to his cabin in the woods, "we need to talk. About Wilbur."

Deceit so natural
But a wolf in sheep's clothing is more than a warning

"Go away from me, Dream," Tommy growled, tightening his grip the crossbow, "You're part of the reason Wilbur blew up L'Manburg."

Bla-bla-black sheep, have you any soul?

"Would you be willing to talk to me, child," a young female voice said next to Dream.

Tommy turned around to see a familiar blonde haired teen, "Drista."

"The one and only," She smirked.

No sir, by the way, what the hell are morals

"Look, Tommy," Dream said,"I know I gave Wilbur the tnt, but he and Techno have crossed lines that even I wouldn't."

"Ooh, are you talking about that festival you wouldn't let me go to," Drista asked excitedly.

Jack, be nimble, Jack, be quick

"It was a good thing too," Dream muttered, "because Schlatt knew."

"That Wilbur was going to blow up L'Manburg," Tommy looked back at the forest, "Of course he did, I'm the one who bloody told him!"

"No, Tommy," Dream hesitated but Tommy deserved to know, "Schlatt knew Tubbo was a spy."

Jill's a little whore and her alibis are dirty tricks

"So that's why Tubbo couldn't get away, Schlatt trapped him," Tommy muttered then stood up, "I have to apologize to Wilbur."

"I don't think that's such a great idea," Dream paled as he stopped Tommy.

"Why," Tommy asked.

"Because, Wilbur told Techno to kill Schlatt," Dream said,"He's dead."

So could you
Tell me how you're sleeping easy

"He would never," Tommy backed away from Dream, "Wilbur always told me to not shoot him, he wouldn't do that. Even if it was Technoblade. I have to go find him. I can still talk to him! He can still understand that no one else needs to be hurt! He did what he wanted! I can-"

How you're only thinking of yourself

"Tommy!" Drista slapped him, "calm down! Think about it. Are you positive that Wilbur can be talked to?"

"Ye-no, I don't know," Tommy rubbed his face as he sat back down on the bench, "Maybe he was right, I was never fit to be president."

Show me how you justify
Telling all your lies like second nature

Dream looked down at the teen in pity, Wilbur and Schlatt truly had taken a number on him. Maybe not physically but mentally.

"What about that time you lead me and Techno into battle for your cow's life," Dream tried to remind him of times he had led, "you were ready to fight with no armor."

"Cause I had two power houses backing me up, I did almost nothing," Tommy countered,"I tried to do the right thing by warning Schlatt. But look at where that got Tubbo, and Niki."

Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay

"Tommy," Drista didn't like the side of her friend she was seeing, "are you okay?"

"No!" He practically screamed at her, "I learned my best friend was dead from the man I was working against! And Wilbur didn't even correct me?!"

Karma's gonna come collect your debt

"Don't yell at my sister," Dream threatened, but Tommy ignored him.

"Wilbur is in the wrong, and if he can't understand," Tommy stood back up and grabbed his bow, "then I'll do what needs to be done."

Aware, aware, you stalk your prey
With criminal mentality

"Then you don't have to do it alone," Drista followed him, pulling away from Dream who tried to stop her.

"Thank you," Tommy said, "but I can't let you fight."

"I can still be very menacing when I want to," Drista smirked.

You sink your teeth into the people you depend on
Infecting everyone, you're quite the problem

They got into the minecarts and rode on the railway system back to Dream's land. While Dream rode on his horse. Tommy remained silent as the wind whipped past and he thought about what he was going to do. How was he supposed to fight Wilbur and Technoblade? Two people he still saw as friends.

Feefifofum, you better run and hide
I smell the blood of a petty little coward

"Hello Tommy," Wilbur stood at the entrance of Tommy's house as he and Drista came up to the embassy, "I was wondering how long it would take you to come back. Who's your friend?"

"Where's Techno," Tommy demanded, ignoring the question, "No need for you body guard anymore?"

Jack, be lethal, Jack, be slick
Jill will leave you lonely dying in a filthy ditch

"You know Tommy," Wilbur gave his question the same treatment, "I always admired that fire inside of you. But sadly it led to rash decisions."

"Like the duel against my brother," Drista guessed, and it clicked for Tommy.

"I didn't come here to talk, Wilbur," Tommy said, gripping his bow tight enough that his knuckles turned white, "I think it's time we finish things how they started."

So could you
Tell me how you're sleeping easy

"What are you saying," Wilbur smirked.

"A duel," Tommy said, "Like the Dream and I had."

"Well I'm sure Techno would be gla-" Wilbur started before Tommy interrupted him, "No, Wilbur. I want to duel you."

How you're only thinking of yourself
Show me how you justify

"I accept," Wilbur let out a small chuckle, "I'll give you a day to get whatever affairs you have left in order. We duel tomorrow at dawn."

Telling all your lies like second nature

"Get him," Someone yelled from the trees nearby, "He killed the president!"

Drista grabbed Tommy's wrist and took off running with him in tow. Leading a small group of people was Quackity. Hope spiked in Tommy, if Quackity survived then maybe Niki had too.

Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay

"Come on Tommy," Drista said,"we have to go!"

"What the hell is going on," Tommy kept running but looked back as Fundy disarmed Quackity and his sword flew to the side.

Karma's gonna come collect your debt

"It doesn't matter," Drista let go of him, "You can't go through with that duel."

"Wait, did you know that Quackity was going to attack Wilbur," Tommy took the chance to stop, "You used me as a distraction."

"It was Dream's idea," She said, but Tommy didn't listen and he ran back to the scuffle and aimed his bow at Eret who was heading to Wilbur from behind.

Maybe you'll change
Abandon all your wicked ways

"Stop," Tommy demanded and Eret finally noticed him, and froze, "That's enough! Wilbur, I want you and Fundy to leave immediately!" He shifted his aim to Wilbur, "unless you want to end this right now!"

Make amends and start anew again

"I don't see why not," Wilbur stuck his sword in the ground, "not like you have anyone else to say goodbye to anyway."

"What did you do?" Dream said

Maybe you'll see
All the wrongs you did to me

"Tommy thinks he can duel me," Wilbur laughed,"correction, he thinks he can kill me."

"Tommy," Drista came running, "You foolish child."

And start all over, start all over again

"So what's the deal this time," Wilbur asked.

"No deal," Tommy said, "It's just a duel, and to make sure there's no more fighting."

"Alright," Wilbur grabbed a bow from Technoblade and they walked to the bridge where Tommy's last duel had been, he had been lucky enough to only get injured and not killed. But was he going to be as lucky this time? He didn't know with Wilbur's head space right now.

Who am I kidding
Now, let's not get overzealous here

"Wait," Drista came up to Tommy, "Please rethink this, you don't have to do this."

He looked over at Wilbur, "Yes I do." He just had to hope his aim would be straight and true.

You've always been a huge piece of shit
If I could kill you I would

Dream stood on the land near the bridge, "stand back to back, as I count walk ten paces, turn around and fire on the last one."

"We know the rules, Dream," Wilbur snapped as he and Tommy stood in the middle. Two best friends, enemies.

But it's frowned upon in all fifty states
Having said that, burn in hell

"1, 2, 3," Dream carried on until he finally reached, "10."

Wilbur spun around, notched an arrow, and let it fly at Tommy.

So tell me how you're sleeping easy
How you're only thinking of yourself

Tommy saw Wilbur aim at him and his life flashed before him. This was it. But could he still kill Wilbur like he had thought? Did he really want to take Wilbur down with him? Tommy notched an arrow.

Closed his eyes.

And aimed to the sky.

Show me how you justify
Telling all your lies like second nature

"No," Niki screamed as Tommy collapsed to the ground, "How could you?! He was your friend!"

"Tommy?" Wilbur said. Everything he had done coming back to him. Tommy. Tubbo. Jschlatt. Punz. Sam. Purpled. He had killed them all.

Listen, mark my words, one day
You will pay, you will pay

Wilbur fell to his knees. Nihachu picked up Tommy's lifeless body and took him back to L'Manburg.

Karma's gonna come collect your debt

The End.
