The moment Sapnap heard what had happened to Freya, he was quick to pull his best friend to help track her.

If it wasn't for the clear determination of his best friend, Dream would have shrugged him off and followed George like a lost puppy. But like Wilbur, he saw the genuine look on Sapnap's face.

The sagging of his shoulders, the frown on his lips, furrowing of his eyebrows, it actually broke his stone-cold heart a bit. So there the two were with Wilbur and Tommy just in front of them, trying to find where the hell they had brought Freya.

They were walking along a hidden path that Wilbur said led to an old village where they stayed as teens where they had to runaway from because of accidentally burning it down and the leader was quite angry with them.

Dream had tried to ask Wilbur who could take or have any interest in taking his sister because all he knew was that they were the only enemies. Ego am I, right?

"I still don't understand why he would come after you for burning a village. I mean its been years and this is the first time of any revenge plot." Tommy whined as they reached the burned-down village.

Wilbur sighed, "Revenge plots can last for years Tommy." "Ain't you right about that." Dream muttered which made Sapnap roll his eyes. "Who is this guy anyway?" he asked the president.

The tall brunette peeked in some old houses and sighed, "An old friend of ours. He wasn't a friendly fella but he had a soft spot for our family for helping his years back so he accepted us." He explained.

"How did you end up burning this whole place down? This is like huge!" Tommy asked as he looked around in awe. Despite the soot and destroyed houses, his little imagination could see how big and beautiful the village used to be.

The president sighed, "It was my fault. I was sneaking out the house to meet up with someone and knocked a lantern accidentally." He explained.

"If it was an accident, why the revenge plot?" Dream asked again as he studied the surroundings. There was something wrong, maybe it was nothing but he still didn't trust anything at the moment.

"What a great question Dream. Why have revenge for an accident-" "Because a lot of people lost their lives." Wilbur cut off the young blonde.

Suddenly rustling was heard, and they all turned to look at a moving bush. All four of them drew their axes and swords when a fox jumped out. Sapnap let out a sigh but his relief was short-lived when an arrow almost hit him.

"Look out!" Wilbur yelled as they rushed to find a hiding spot. Footsteps were heard as they hid behind the last few standing houses. "Oh, Wilbur. I see you have found your way back home." A familiar voice called out.

Tommy looked at his older brother in confusion but Wilbur didn't give him any attention. "Don't be like this Wilbur. I waited years to see you and your sister again." He said.

Sapnap gripped the handle of his axe as Dream signaled Tommy to quietly move and load his bow with an arrow while he readied his shield and axe.

"Oh right, your sister. She is still the same feisty woman, isn't she? Sad she can't see her big brother save her." he said. This made Wilbur and Sapnap's blood boil but both didn't make a move to show themselves.

"I didn't want to do this but oh well." Suddenly a thud was heard, "Oh look here! Little Freya Soot, unconscious and weak. Who can possibly save her from the evil goatman." He taunted.

This statement made Wilbur jump out of his hiding spot and throw his sword towards the man but he moved to the side, "Tut tut Wilbur. That's not how you greet a friend."

"You're not my friend Schlatt." Wilbur said angrily. The man laughed and nodded, "Yeah, cause you're conceited little bitch." He said.

Wilbur clenched his jaw and was about to say something when he caught sight of Dream and Tommy sneaking behind Schlatt. "What do you want?" he asked, hopefully trying to buy enough time for Dream and Tommy to get the perfect timing of everything.

"Oh you know the revenge thing took some time but here I am." He said with a shrug. "You can't kill my sister." Wilbur said or rather growled at him. Schlatt laughed, "I know. She is chaos after all. I do intend however to cause her as much pain as possible." He explained.

"Sorry to burst your bubble, my sister is unconscious, you can barely cause her enough pain if she can't process it properly." He said as he hoped Dream would finally make a move.

But Schlatt smirked, "Oh not to her, I know how emotional your sister is so why not attack it there." He said before throwing an icicle to the direction where Tommy was hiding.

"Tommy!" Wilbur yelled as it hit his brother in the stomach making the young blonde to fall on the ground. This made Dream and Sapnap to jump out of their hiding spots and start attacking Schlatt.

The half goat laughed maniacly as he pulled out his shield. The axes hitting it, almost slicing it in half. "You are pathetic Wilbur Soot! You joined forces with your enemy!" he yelled in a crazed manner.

"You're crazy!" Wilbur yelled as he yanked the arrow out of his brother. "Sapnap! Take her!" Dream yelled and motioned to Freya who was still unconscious.

"I may be crazy but I will avenge my sister Wilbur Soot." Schlatt said as he pushed Dream away. The blonde stumbled but stood in front of Sapnap and Freya.

"It was an accident-" "And it will be seen as an accident that your siblings died of frozen organs!" Schlatt yelled as he turned to the president.

He glared at him, "It will be an accident just like how my sister's body burned!" he yelled as he raised his sword only for Wilbur to dodge it while pulling Tommy's body away.

"I paid for that mistake!" he yelled as their swords clashed together. "It will not me avenged until you are alone! You deserve to be alone Wilbur Soot. You sold your own sister to the enemy! You let your brother face a duel for a mistake! You do not deserve your siblings!"

That was enough for Wilbur, he stumbled and dropped to the floor next to Tommy. "No." he said quietly. Schlatt smirked, "You may be a great leader, but you are bad brother." He said as he raised his sword.

Ready to kill Wilbur, an axe flew through the air hitting Schlatt's back. Blood dripped from his mouth before dropping dead on the ground.

The president looked forward to see Sapnap heaving in front of Dream who was trying to find the icicle on Freya. "Sapnap-" "Shut up."

The brunette walked to him and crouched down to where Tommy laid. He hovered his hand making Wilbur nervous, "What are you-" "Don't. He's going to melt the ice." Dream spoke as he threw the icicle that was lodged on Freya's neck.

Wilbur watched as Sapnap's powers carefully engulfed Tommy's chest. A minute later he heard his brother grasp for air.

"Wilbur?" Tommy asked but the older brunette merely pulled him into a hug. Wilbur looked at Sapnap who nodded, "You're welcome."

"Uh Wilbur, is the goatman dead?"
