No Rest for the Wicked is a FPF Minecraft YouTube fanfiction by A_Ghoul. The story is a Gen Minecraft Manhunt AU where Dream is the hunter instead of being the one hunted that takes place in the world of the Dream SMP. The story was posted to Archive of Our Own between April 2021 and September 2022. It was deleted sometime early in 2023.
Summary
Dream's worked for the Emperor for as long as he can remember. He's the best there is--a manhunter like no other.A manhunter who trained for years. Who never got a childhood. Who wants nothing more than to just run for the sake of it, rather than the sake of the hunt.
Too bad there's no escaping the Emperor and Dream would rather live chained than die free... at least that's what he thought. Then he's sent to kill three traitors. Then he meets Sapnap and George and Bad. Then he realizes maybe there are some things worth dying for. (Friendship being one of them.)

Enjoy Manhunter!Dream who doesn't really want to be a manhunter, a George who would rather be sleeping, a Sapnap and Bad who just want to go home to the Nether, and one very done Punz.
