3rd Person Omniscient POV

The knights drop down and the Dreamcatchers are totally caught off guard. George pushes Wilbur against the wall but Wilbur yanks George into a hidden crevice in the wall whispering to him furiously. Sapnap starts to take on Tommy and Tubbo while Punz snatches Dream's mask from Tommy's bag.

"Hey!" Tommy swipes at Punz but he blocks the hit with his shield while Sapnap shoots three arrows from his crossbow.

One arrow hits Tommy, one hits Punz's shield, and the last hits Tubbo in the hand. Blood begins running from the wound.

Sapnap pulls something black and thin from his belt and smirks at Tommy. Tommy's eyes widen to form PTSD which gives Punz enough time to knock away his sword.
Tubbo is lying on the ground under HBomb and Tommy immediately runs over to help as Punz starts digging a staircase out of the hole.

Meanwhile, Ant, Bad, Skeppy, and Sam have already taken on Quackity, Fundy, and Jack. Y/N grabs Dream and immediately pulls the gag out. He smiles and coughs, not being able to talk for a few days.

Punz appears and quickly tugs Dream to the staircase to the surface. The minute Dream's feet touch the grass, Quackity sprints out of the hole and grabs Dream dragging him with him.

Punz starts to them chase but Y/N stops him.

"Prepare the horses," she says and he nods not questioning orders.

Y/N runs after Quackity. Dream's head hits a trunk of the tree as they run knocking him unconscious. Y/N sends a bolt of fire at Quackity, hitting him in the leg. He falls dropping Dream and she advances on him. He gets up trying to take Dream away again but she throws her axe into his back. He falls and gasps out for mercy.

"Please!" he begs. "I'll leave you two alone, I'll never set foot in the kingdom again!"

She glances at Dream.

You did this to him. You'll pay.

Y/N holds a bolt of purple lightning in her hand and strikes him. He falls to the ground, dead.

She cuts the rest of Dream's ropes and picks him up. He's surprisingly light, he hasn't eaten in days. He's unconscious but still breathing.

After returning to the hole, the knights are mostly out but Sapnap is climbing out with Tommy dragging him down by holding onto his ankles.

She places Dream carefully by a horse and Sam stays to watch him.

Punz rushes to Sapnap while the knights look at
Y/N for instructions. She picks up some TNT and nods at the hole.

The knights immediately start dumping TNT in the hole and they hear screams from below.

Bad shoots the TNT with a fire arrow and the hole deepens, injuring the Dreamcatchers inside.

Tommy is still hanging onto Sapnap and almost drags him in but Punz grabs him in time. Sapnap kicks at Tommy's face, cursing.

Y/N shoots an arrow into Tommy's hand and he lets go with a shriek of pain. He falls back down into the dark depths below and more TNT goes off.

"You okay?" Punz asks pulling Sapnap over the edge.

"Yeah, thanks, dude."

The rest of the knights are barely injured.

"Let's go," Y/N says. "The kingdom is a long journey from here, we should get going."

She mounts Spirit and Sam carries Dream to her. She ties a rope around his waist to keep him on Spirit and adjusts him so he's leaning on her left shoulder with his legs over the right side of the horse.

The knights mount their horses and quickly ride away leaving the Dreamcatchers.

The horses' hooves pound on the grass and a cool breeze blows. Dream shifts closer to Y/N and she hugs him tighter with her left arm which is supporting his back. He's safe, for now...
