I'm at school rn and today is the last day so I will be on a bit more after today!
Also incase y'all forgot last chapter Nova attempted to kill herself.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
No! She had been so close!
“What the heck kid” Techno kid. He had walked over to her. Nova tried to shrink away from him but ended up just coughing.
“I don’t” Nova tried to say that she didn’t want to go, but she couldn’t make her voice work. She lifted one of her arms to her neck. It hurt so bad. When she took her hand away from her neck she saw that her hand was covered in dark red blood.
Technoblade had taken a small glass vial full of a light red liquid out from the folds of his red coat. He kneeled down and held the vial to her mouth. “Drink” He ordered.
Nova tried to resist it but her body betrayed her and she opened her mouth.
Techno poured the warm liquid down her throat and it immediately made her feel better. Nova’s heart beat returned to the normal rhythm and the pain in her neck faded into a dull ache. Techno took the vial away from her mouth and put it back into his coat.
“I think that settles it.” He said standing up. He turned towards Dream. “She’s hiding something”
Dream nodded, he looked fairly calm considering the fact that Nova had almost died. “I suppose you are most likely right,” He said, he thought for a bit. “But i will be sending one of my mercenaries to check on you every couple of days”
“Fair enough” Techno nodded.
“See you soon old friend” Dream said.
“Farewell” Techno replied.
Dream walked back into the bushes and headed off to find George and Sapnap.
Techno sighed once he decided that Dream was out of hearing distance. “Your welcome”
Nova slowly sat up. “What do you mean your welcome?!?” She cried. “You are literally taking me hostage”
Techno sighed again. “I saved your life, twice, in a way.”
“Twice?”
“Well I'm saving your life by taking you hostage” He said. “Also I threw the knife that cut the rope when you were trying to, uh, comit suicide”
Nova looked over at the ground where she had been and saw that a gleaming black knife was on the ground.
“My dagger” She said, surprised!
“It is yours” Techno confirmed. “That's what i thought, even Dream doesn’t have any obsidian tools”
“Oh” Nova was kind of confused. Had he really saved her life? Or just delayed her demise?
“Can you walk?” Techno asked, as he walked over to her.
“Uhh maybe” Nova tried to get up using the tree but the moment she let go her legs collapsed beneath her and she fell to the ground.
“I will take that as a no,” Techno chuckled. He bent over and, despite Nova being a few inches taller than him, scooped her up and threw her over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
Nova let out a short shriek but let herself go limp in Techno’s arms. He smelled of freshly chopped wood and something else that Nova couldn’t quite place.
She didn’t mind, it was nice being with someone after all the time she had been alone. She hadn’t been with anyone sense- A sharp pulse of pain went through her head.
“Agh” She cried, rubbing her temples but the headache went away as quickly as it had come.
“You good?” Technoblade asked.
“I-I’m fine, my head just hurts,” Nova replied shakily.
Techno nodded. “You need rest, feel free to fall asleep on the way back”
Nova had originally doubted that she would be able to sleep but the moment Techno said ‘rest’ her body betrayed her and eyes started to droop. “Maybe a little bit-”
And Nova drifted off to sleep.
