Why Did You Save Me.....?

Death's Wrath

"I'm sorry for snapping at both of you..." his tears landed on Tubbos hand, at first no one thought of it.

A miracle happened.

The red faded away, revealing a fresh new layer of skin, the hand completely healed.

"Tommy!" Tubbo yelled out as Tommy looked at his hand. He let go of his hand as Tubbo wiggled his fingers and giggled.

"The pain! It's gone!" He smiled, Ranboo looking at Tommy.

"Your tears....they healed his hand......" Ranboo went over towards their wool blanket.

He picked up a dusty book and unbuckled the strap. He flipped through the pages and began sifting through the paragraphs.

"Tommy...there's only one creature know to heal anyone and anything with their tears.....and that's the Phoenix..."

"What?" He stood there speechless, breaths shaking with each intake of air he took.

"Tommy....the reason your powers are untamed and out of control is because no one was there to teach you how to use them....your ancestor died off before you could even hatch..."

"Then...how did I survive?" He asked, confusion present in his voice.

"I-I don't know..." he said as he went back through the book, reading paragraph after paragraph. Tommy didn't understand.

A Phoenix? No I can't be one....I'm nothing...

You are not nothing...

Tommy flinched at the voice.

Tommy...you are anything but nothing... he stood up softly as he gazed into the river his eyes widened.

Behind him stood a woman.

She had black ravenous hair, a black veil covering her face. She wore a black coal hat and a dress of pure moonlight. Her lips were a deep purple with a slight tint of magenta. Her eyes couldn't be seen but Tommy had to blink his eyes multiple times to make sure he wasn't dreaming.

He looked behind him but didn't see anything there.

Am I seeing shit?

The woman softly chuckled.

No, Tommy, I'm very real, but I'm not there physically... she said, a soft smile pricking at the corners of her mouth.

Tommy...the reason you lived was...because I made a deal with your original guardian...

A deal? What deal?

There was a long pause.

I promised to raise you and keep you safe but when I died....

What? What was the deal?

All who saw you, would forget who you are, you would be erased from their memories...

Tommy was silent.

Is that the reason why Tubbo and Ranboo forgot about me?

No.....I died before you even met them...

wait so if you died....how are you talking to me now?

Because I'm here to help you as best as I can.

Like a guide?

Yes, like a guide...

Tommy could hear the smile in her voice as she responded.
