"A Good Mate?!"

"Chapter «21» ♡"

Techno was not having a good time right now.

Here he was, prowling the woods around Las Nevadas when he could be at home with his mate. Dream even knew he was here right now. The admin was spending the week in L’Manberg to help sort out some kind of dispute which meant Techno had plenty of time to do as he pleased to the duck hybrid who had so loudly disrespected him and his mate.

Normally, Techno’s pretty good at not letting stuff like that get to him, but when his mate was involved all logic went out the window. The voices had been particularly loud lately about killing Quackity, to the point where Techno decided to give them whatever they wanted just so that they would shut up. He probably wouldn’t kill the duck hybrid, but he would certainly send a message.

Back to the current situation at hand, Techno was currently in his “scouting” phase of his plan. He needed to see Quackity’s movements and who would be around him so that he could make a plan about when the best time to strike would be. He had watched the man walk into a casino about an hour ago but had not seen him leave yet, so the piglin was stuck lounging at the base of a tree and waiting.

Suddenly, footsteps were heard to his right. They were too heavy to be Quackity’s, so at least Techno knew the man hadn’t slipped out of his sight and tried to sneak up on him. But that means there’s a different problem. Someone else was quickly reaching Techno’s position.

Luckily, that tension and suspense was quickly squashed when a harsh whisper was heard over the rustling of grass, “Technoblade?”

It was Sapnap. Why was Sapnap here? As far as Techno had heard he and Karl had been holed up in Sap’s house trying to pull themselves, and their relationship, together now that it was just the two of them. Now Sapnap was here, where was Karl?

“Sapnap? What are you doing here?”

“I could ask you the same thing, personally I’m here to slap my ex into next week. Your turn.”

“I’m here to send a message. He hurt my mate, emotionally but still. He needs to learn a lesson.”

A sharp grin broke out on Sapnap’s face as he realized that he and Techno’s reasons lined up pretty well. This would work out very nicely for the both of them should they work together. He decides to voice his thoughts to the piglin hybrid, who simply responds with a deadly smile.

The two sat together for a while as they waited for Quackity to leave the casino and their recon to continue. This is how the next two days went. SItting, following, and a lot of watching and waiting. Finally, it was the day before they had decided they would head back to their respective homes. Today was the day that Quackity would finally be taught a lesson about what happens when you mess with Sapnap and Technoblade, especially when you mess with the ones they love. Though Quackity was once included in that for Sapnap… it was a complicated situation.

Quackity had finally left the casino and was headed home for lunch. He’d normally be headed back to the casino in a few hours, but after today he may want to stay home for the upcoming couple of days. 

The two slink their way to Quackity’s house, taking shortcuts and reaching his house just in time to break in and hide before Quackity walks through the door.

The duck hybrid sighs deeply as he pulls off his beanie and unloads himself of his weapons. Just as he’s starting to riffle through a chest, a blade appears at his throat, causing him to straighten up only to run into a strong torso of whoever’s wielding the blade.

The blade… the body… of course. Who else would it be but Technoblade.

“Technoblade, didn’t expect to see you so soon. What can I do for you?”
