Drista POV

I jump down from the hill and land perfectly in the center of the fighting. They all back up and leave me a clear path to walk towards my brother.

I point my trident at Tommy.

"Get away from him, child"

Tommy smiles.

"Hey Drista, Operation Fork is a go"

"Yeah that won't work this time" I smirk moving closer. "That wasn't the real deal"

"Then you're a pussy, woman" Tommy spits.

My trident makes contact with his chest plate which sends him flying back. I summon the trident back and turn to face my brother on the ground.

"Well, well, I can't say I'm surprised to see you here" I jab the prongs at his neck.

"I could say the same for you" he gasps out.

I hold out my hand and he takes it. I pull him onto his feet.

"Remember I'm Dream" he whispers into my ear.

"Yeah, yeah" I roll my eyes playfully at him.

"How do you know Drista?" Dream asks Tommy.

I smile.

"Care to tell him?"

"Drista found me while I was in exile. We talked some and we joked about pronging you with a fork, a picture of you" Tommy says.

I sniffle a giggle at the memory.

"I then told her that when she sees you again, she should stab you with a trident and say "Operation Fork is a Go"

"Why didn't you come and find me?" Dream asks.

"Well," I twirl my trident and look at the floor.

Will he be mad at me? I was afraid he had turned evil. After what Tommy told me, Dream seemed to enjoy tormenting him.

"Drista" the black eyes of the mask stare into me.

"How about you both sort this out later," Nightmare says. "As you can see, we're in the middle of a battle"

I nod. Nightmare's right.

"She's right" a guy with raven colored hair sets his jaw and swings his sword.

I smile at my brother.

"I've been dying to show you what I've learned"

I pull the sword from my back and hold it in my left hand, trident in my right.

"Don't you need armor?" A brunette with goggles asks.

"Naw," I shake my head letting my hair fall over my shoulders. "You learn to fight without it"

I watch a crossbow fire at the other side and we all descend into fighting.

Halfway through throwing my trident at some guy in a green shirt with blond hair, I notice that Nightmare is no where to be seen.

Weird, she said that Clay could need my help in this war. I agreed to fight with her. Where is she now?

I block an attack with my sword and turn to face a new opponent.

A guy with a scar over his left eye.

He swings at me violently and I jump aside.

"Woah, calm down" I smile at him.
