Detonated

  “Don’t you see Tommy? If we cant have l’manburg, then Schaltt shouldn't!” Wilbur asseverated with a hint of insanity in his voice

“Wilbur.. This isn’t right! I-” Tommy stammered as he looked up in disbelief at his friend. He pulled out his crossbow.

“I can’t let you do this.”

A sandy-blonde male stepped out of the shadows and between the two disputing males, Tommy stopped in his tracks as the interfering man held a menacing aura with his netherite sword and armour, he grinned wickedly.

  “I can step in for Wilbur, Tommy.” He said calmly.

Wilbur grinned whilst Tommy stepped back instinctively with a horrified and pained look on his face. 

  “YES! THANK YOU SO MUCH DREAM!” The deranged male chirped. 

“Dream! Why are you helping him?” Tommy shouted at the two males in front of him. He stepped closer to Wilbur. “What are you even planning to do?!”

“Well, I've pre-placed tnt all around Manburg. And soon, during Tubbo’s speech during the festival, with a simple click of a button; all of Manburg will be destroyed, torn to pieces, and so will Schlatt’s reign. And even mine.” Wilbur smiled sadly.

The terrified Tommy reached out to Wilbur’s arm, but he pushed him away.

“There’s nothing you can do now, Tommy.” He turned around and looked at his former friend sadly.

“I’m sorry.”

-----------------------------------

It was the day.

Wilbur let out a shaky breath. Why was he scared? This was a great idea after all. He felt a presence come behind him as someone put a hand on his shoulder.

“You ready Wilbur?” Dream asked. He had one final glance at the Manburg flag and scowled at it bitterly with a flint and steel in hand.

“Ready as I'll ever be.”

(Scene/but when Wilbur blows everything up, will write later cause idk what happened)

The screams and fire was music to Wilbur’s ears. Flames engulfed the former nation known as Manburg -or l’manburg, as some call it.- The large craters sunken deep into the ground and the blazes of the warm orange flames flickered and burned the lush greenery as the used-to-be forest was now a heap of ash and burnt plants. Upon a hill was where the fellow Arsonist sat, he gazed down at the burning country with a smug grin whilst he watched the chaos unfold right under his fingertips. The ash was carried in the wind and a thick cloud of gunmetal grey smoke. The soot from the fiery chaos drifted Lightly up to Wilbur. 

He raised his head to see the now amaranthine fraction of the Manburg flag, burning and turning ashen-grey. He looked around for his friend and to his amusement, he could Spot Tommy in the midst of the chaos, escorting Tubbo into the forest (The part which is not burnt, may I add) and then fleeing. So, everyone’s helping their friend. Wilbur thought sarcastically. How heartwarming.

Then, a thought hit him.

“NIKI?”

------------------------------

What was Wilbur doing? To be fair, he didn’t know. 

“NIKI!?” Wilbur shouted desperately. His eyes scanned the area for a glimpse of Niachu’s blonde hair.

And there she was, lying on the ashen, grassy grass. Unconscious.

The warm flames heated Wilbur’s skin and now from his position, he could really smell the smoky clouds which burned his nostrils. He let out some small coughs and sprinted over to Niki. He winced as his arm grazed over a small flame he crouched down to Niki’s unconscious body.

“Niki, Niki wake up! Are you there?” He shook her body, his calls growing louder and more desperate. He checked for a pule. He sighed, relieved.

Her pulse is there, just extremely weak. He looked around. How am I gonna take her back? Hold on, where am I even going to take her? He didn’t wait for his small brain to come with an idea, he lifted Niki’s body and put her on his back.

He ran as fast as he could into the forest where Tubbo and Tommy had run into. The twigs and thick vines blocked his face but he kept running and running. He had no idea where to go, except for Pogtopia, Where he and Tommy had camped out when they were exiled from Manburg. 

Will Tommy even welcome me back? Would he be scared to see me?

These thoughts kept appearing in Wilbur’s head. He slowed down as the smoky smell of ash and fire had faded away and was replaced with the soft scents of rose bushes and peonies, he could hear a stream’s rushing water in the distance and the passive mobs were relaxing happily, completely ignoring the fact that only a second ago, a whole nation was destroyed.

Wilbur came to a halt as he approached the oak door. He hesitated then knocked twice.

“I’ll get it Tommy!” a voice called from behind the door, Wilbur could easily recognise the voice as Tubbo’s enthusiastic one. The door opened and the nervous male was met with Tubbo’s blue eyes.

“O-oh, uh, hey Wilbur!” Tubbo stammered, startled. “Nice to see you! W-wait, is that Niki?”

“Yes, she’s unconscious and needs medical help.” The brown-haired man answered. He hesitated before speaking up. “Can i come in?”

Tubbo nodded and let Wilbur inside.

“Hey there Tommy.” Wilbur said quietly. Tommy’s eyes widened.

“Wilbur? What are you doing here? Is that Ni-” He got cut off.

“Yes, it is.” Wilbur cut off impatiently. “She needs medical help and I’m going to be the one who helps her.

------------------------

Wilbur wouldn’t agree to leave Niki’s side and had been worrying about her for the whole day. Niki was healthy with the help from Wilbur and some from Tubbo and Tommy, which Wilbur did not agree on. (‘You’re just children, let me do it.’) but just unconscious.

It was sunset now, and Niki had still not woken up and Wilbur had been stressing about it. Next to Niki’s bed, Wilbur had pulled up a chair next to her and found his old guitar,

[Verse 1: Wilbur Soot]

Well, it's 2:45 pm

Wake up from snoring, open DMs

Can of Red Bull by the bed

Vape is charged, Snapchat’s read

What's popping?

What's popping?

[Verse 2: Wilbur Soot]

She’s beauty, she's grace

She has a profile picture of an anime girl's face

Just a single message more

Sends her rubbing up against my ethernet cord

[Pre-Chorus: Wilbur Soot]

I wanna be the guy

That you fall asleep on call with

I'll make you forget

Every guy that came before me

'Cause I like you

And you like my attention

Let's skip to the good bit

Let's consummate our internet connection

[Chorus: Wilbur Soot, Chevy]

I'm in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

I’m in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

I’m in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

With an e-girl (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

I'm in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

I’m in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

I'm in love with an (Mmm-mmm-mmm)

With an e-girl (Mmm-mmm-mmm-mmm)

Mom took away my PS4

So I punched a hole through my bedroom wall

I'm not aggressive

I just ooze masculine passion

Did you know I've also got depression?

I’m self-diagnosed, thought I should mention

I thought you could be the one to fix me

A voice suddenly began singing,

I wanna be the girl

That you fall asleep on call with

Meanwhile, I'll (Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh)

Find other people to talk with

'Cause you like me (Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh)

And I think you're a maniac

Let's skip to the good bit (Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh)

Let's completely block all contact (Ahhhh, Ahhhh, Ahhhh)

I'm in love with an

I'm in love with an

I'm in love with an

With an e-girl

I'm in love with an

I'm in love with an

I'm in love with an

With an e-girl

Mom took away my PS4

I've said it so many times before

How can I live on if I keep on collecting

These every little slights and insurrections

Constant pain in every dimension

My body weeps

Disbelief heads suspension

I wanna be the guy

That you find stalking your affections

Your social media scoured

You seek police intervention

'Cause I base my

Ideals on obsessive media

Maybe if I act like them

You'll respond to my DMs

Wilbur turned to the bed next to him, and Niki was awake and smiling softly at him.

He truly was in love with an e-girl.
