I've had more excitement in three days than the healthy requirement. First waking up in a small dorm in a building with more boys than one girl should have to deal with, without another girl to converse with, second getting chased down by Dream, third saving Tommy and Tubbo, making friends with a good group of boys (who aren't hooligans), fourth fighting the twins and almost losing Phade, fifth and final, fighting Jacob and his friends. Since I ate a sliver of the golden apple to heal myself for war, the apple wouldn't be able to heal me again, at least not for a while. I'm lucky I'm still alive. Had Bad not been around or had none of the boys known how to heal I would have died. Granted I can't move for a week, I don't mind. I've got good people around me and nothing threatens our safety for the moment. I think the Dream team has made it clear, we're not meant to be messed with. The team killed off anyone who still stood on Jacobs side (who is now dead thanks to me and Tommy who finished him off with an arrow after my knife lodged itself into his chest) and the rest are carefully watched some even helping others with training. Bad said that I could move around within a week just no fighting or running around until I'm completely healed. So now I sit on a mattress in the middle of the ball room, with blankets wrapped around me, Techno sitting behind me braiding my hair, Wilbur plays his guitar, his lyrics could use some work but his voice is amazing, Bad every so often checks on me asking me how I feel, Tommy and Tubbo play with some of the familiars Phade finally playing with the others after sitting directly if not on top of me until I was able to sit up without fainting for a while, George, Sapnap, Dream, and Fundy work on bringing supplies in for what no one has told me, and Philza and I would chat when I'm not writing in the diary he had made for me. Cally, Dreams familiar likes to sit curled in my lap so I will pet her head or slither onto my shoulder when she's bored. Marina Fundies familiar watched the others chase a ball and whenever the ball rolled close by she would leap up like a fox does when they're digging for food and grab the ball. Whenever the others got close to take it from her she bolt across the marble floor, slide before she hit a wall and bound off that and change directions surprising the others who all then crashed into the wall and into one another. I would laugh hard which hurt usually I would pass out after that but after a few days it didn't hurt as much. Bad would get frustrated and eventually yell which surprised everyone and then he would apologize and I would chuckle. The sun was setting and I was tired. I put the diary down and carefully lowered myself onto a pillow. The others would quiet and find something quiet to do, usually Wilbur and Philza would chat and Techno would play a game of cards with Tommy. By the time the sun went down everyone was asleep except whoever was on watch. Tomorrow was a big day I can feel it.
“Clare I really would prefer you stay put, ” Bad watched worriedly as I stood with the help of Wilburs shoulder.
“You said, ‘one week Clare then you can walk around but no fighting or running around’ I feel fine Bad quit fussing, ” Bad grumbled something but I ignored him. I let go of Wilbur and took a few steps, I didn't fall or faint so I took a few more steps. Phade stood by my side watching with worry.
“See I'm fine. Now, I want to help with this project you guys are so intently focused on, ” I grabbed my scabbard and strapped it to my back wincing quietly as pain lanced through my left side where the arrow had gone through.
“What is going on?” I looked from Bad to Techno to Wilbur. No one replied. With a grumble, I walked over to Dream who was going through a pile of blankets, bags, food in containers or satchels, weapons, medical supplies, and other random stuff. Fundy and George came in arms full of rope and other gear.
“Hey! Glad to see you up and moving!” Fundy patted me on the shoulder and George tossed me an apple which I snatched out of the air. I smiled happy to be on my feet again. Phade wagged his tail and licked Fundies hand for attention, which Fundy replied by scratching Phades ears.
“So, ” I bit into the apple, before continuing. “What's going on?” Dream stood inspecting some rope.
“Remember before the battle Tommy said he found a way out of here?” I tilted my head thinking. That's right! “Yeah!”
“Well, we are preparing to leave. Time we saw what's outside, ” he tossed me a bag full of supplies.
“Techno, check that all the weapons and blades are in good shape and remove the ones in bad shape. Wrap any that we won't carry on hand, ” Techno started on his task while Dream tossed me more bags. Shrugging I went through the supplies and took inventory. I grabbed things that would be important, food, water canteens, medical supplies were not as much needed because we were all pretty capable of avoiding injury, tents, blankets, rope, whetstones, compasses, maps which I stopped to study.
“Hey Dream, ” Dream looked up and came over to me. “Hm, ” was all he said when he finished looking. His expression changed to a thoughtful one. The map showed several buildings identical to ours scattered over different biomes. He tilted his head looking closer.
"Theres more of these buildings?" I nodded eyeing the buildings before my eyes were drawn to the key.
"Looks like four miles is 1/2 in so at least 10-12 miles between each building with at least three buildings in each biome," I said pointing drawing my finger across the map from the key to each building to the biome borders. Dream studied the map thinking.
"Looks like there's more to this game than we thought," he said quietly hands on his hips chewing his lip. I nodded in agreement as Techno walked over to observe the map.
"Exciting," he commented looking at me.
The sun was slowly setting by the time we were all ready to go, everyone had a pack with a med kit, sewing kit, water filter kit, weapon cleaning kit, extra clothes, food, canteens, and anything else we could find that would be useful. I was still stiff from the arrow and whenever I move my shoulder or arm to high or to far pain lances up my spine. By the time the sun was fully set and the half moon had risen our group was standing outside the secret entrance.
"Everyone ready?" Dream asked glancing around. Everyone nodded and Tommy stepped forward opening the entrance. A stone wall rotated slowly stone grating on stone and an empty dark hall lead to the back end of a stall. I stepped forward first walking inside into the stall. It was a large stable that sat against the walls of the building behind them. Horses of every type color and build sat in the stalls well groomed and fed.
"Who's been feeding them?" She wondered.
