“I need you to tell me everything you know about this prison.”

[rivalsblade]

Dream: this is the worst possible outcome. Why would you come here. Quackity is going to kill us both. We’re all going to die-

Techno, already making them friendship bracelets: bro can you just shut the fuck up for a second

Authors Note : Hi! I’m not new to Tumblr or to writing, but I am new to writing Dream SMP stories on Tumblr!  I hope you enjoy the first published story. Definitely more to come! Suggestions and helpful criticism are always welcome!

When Techno showed up at the prison, walking across the bridge so casually, without a care in the world, grinning from ear to ear, Dream thought it was over. He was trapped forever. He would never see the light of day again. The only man strong enough to possibly get Dream out was stuck between those obsidian walls, right beside him. 

Oh, it was over. His hope was gone, wrinkling away right under his nose. He was done. He was going to die in here, he was going to die to quackitys axe. He was going to be beat to death. God, he couldn't handle it again. His skin was split and bruised. His bones felt like jelly, and he no longer had strength to stand.

Tears burned his eyes as he thought back to all the beatings and bruises he had taken, how rough quackity was with him no matter how much he begged and pleaded "god just make it stop, please." 

He almost started to panic again.

His thoughts were subsided when Techno asked him about everything he knew about the prison. His knowledge on the building seemed to be never ending. How could it? He designed the damn thing. He knew every hallway, every room, every secret tunnel and entrance, where all the key cards were kept, how the red stone worked, what was on the other side of every wall. 

At first he wanted to keep that knowledge a secret, afraid someone might use it against him, but his own building was being used against him in this moment, so why hold back? 

Techno told him to speak fast. Dream didn't know why and he didn't care to ask. He knew techno was a smart man, so he just did what he was told.

Everything he knew rolled off his tongue like a waterfall, and Techno sat against the obsidian wall listening to everything, writing it down as fast as he could. Technos hand started to cramp after a while, but he didn't care. What's a hand cramp compared to the multiple beatings dream has endured?

• security issue in courtyard (Sam never fixed it)

• two guards, Bad and Ant (stupid egg lovers)

• in emergency, guards will be teleported to the facility with full armor and potions

• Tommy snuck in with invis pot

• most of prison is hollow

• secret entrance on the roof

• if there seems to be a security breach, Sam will leave the bridge area to go investigate

• multiple elder guardians, not sure where

• if Dream's respawn bed is broken, he will spawn at server spawn

• Sam comes to deliver food every six hours

Techno needed to know everything. His mind was working a mile a minute. Planning, devising, thinking, calculating. 

Techno enjoyed this. He always loved a challenge. This felt like nothing short of an escape room to him. A complex, fucked up, escape room.

Dream enjoyed it, too. Enjoyed this. Talking to someone, getting his mind off of the burning pain of the cuts littering his skin. He felt as if techno was the only friend he's had in a while.

Dream was finally happy he has a friend, an ally, to talk to. Someone who won't yell at him, cuss him out, beat him until he bleeds. Someone who can protect him when his normal abuser makes an appearance. Someone who can make jokes to make him smile.

Someone who was loyal enough to stick by him. 

Dream hasn't had that in a while. It almost felt foreign to him, but he wouldn't hold on to it for long. He knew that Techno wasn't a friend, just an ally with mutual interests.

Techno remembered what Dream said about Sam dropping food by every 6 hours, so when Sam came by for the first time, he knew his time was almost up. 

Techno scribbled something in a book and flashed it to Dream. 

Dream read it closely.

sudden panic and fear found home in Dream's eyes. 

He was going to be alone again. Techno was going to leave and Quackity was going to come back. Quackity would take out all his anger on him. He wouldn't be safe. He was never safe.

"Stay strong. You won't be here for much longer. After that, we'll kill those fuckers"

Dream had never heard Techno cuss before, so something in him told him to trust Techno's words.

Phil looked down at Techno's 'will.'

If I do not return before sundown, please activate the stasis chamber. I feel as if Quackity is not to be trusted, and you can never be too sure.

The sun was slowly hiding behind the horizon, and as soon as the last bit of yellow was drowned out by blue, Phil sprinted to the syndicate room. 

As soon as he made it to Techno's chair, he slammed the trap door shut, and his life long best friend appeared. Techno looked directly at Phil, and Phil could see nothing but determination and anger in his eyes.

"It's time to create a plan, Phil," Techno stated in a deep huff. "We must work quickly."

Phil pondered for a second, "should I alert Ranboo and Niki?"

"No," Techno stated quickly, almost causing Phil to jump. "No no no no no. This is going to be dangerous. I don't need another friend to get hurt."

Techno slammed all the book and quills onto the table. 

Phil quickly snatched one and began to read, as Techno started to draw a blueprint.
