The witching hour

Chapter 3

•—————————•

Nightmare and Dust walked for quiet a long time. The finally reached a road, and seemed the nearest town was...weird. There was a strange aura about it. They couldn't quiet put their hand on it. It...reminded them of someone.

The two entered the strange town, the people were fucked up. No one had any fucking sanity. They came apon a shack, clearly a tourist trap.

That's when nightmare realized it. "Bill!" She said. Dust looked confused "this place reminds me of bill!" She said. "Ooooh" Dust realized. But what was this place called again? Something...falls.

Eh, didn't matter. They went back to the town and saw two weirdos. One looked over excited and had a weird sweater on. The other...has no clue what fashion sense is. "Weirdos" I mumble. The two looked over to me and Dust. "Who are you!?" One asked "I haven't seen you two around before, and you don't look like tourists..." the boy examined me. "Okay?... yeah we're going." Dust said, dragging Nightmare away.

They fled to the woods, it felt...like someone was watching them.

"Who the fuck were those two." Nightmare mumbled, summoning her tentacles back. "I don't fucking know!!" Dust whisper shouted. They heard footsteps. Nightmare hid her tentacles and covered her eye that was leaking a bit of black goop. "Hey! What was that for!" The girl yelled. Dust and Nightmare looked at each other, then back at the children in front of them. "Do we really need to say." Dust said. Nightmare laughed a bit. They looked angry. "Hehe, okay. Real talk. Do any of you know a dream demon?" Nightmare asked. The kids shook a little. "Y-yeah. His name is Will." The silver haired one said. 'Will? Are we in a different place? Oh well, we'll just have to ask him' Dust thought. "And do you know where to find him perhaps?..." Dust asked. The two looked at us, clearly we were acting suspicious. "Yeah...why do you want to talk to him again?" The girl asked. "We're looking for someone." Nightmare said bluntly. The kids looked back at eachother, deciding if they should help the strangers.

"And if we don't help you?" The girl asked.

Dust smirked and chuckled darkly. "Why, it's simple...we destroy this place" she said darkly. Nightmare looked at the kids, fear radiating off them. "O-okay... Well I'm Pacifica. And that's Giddion. Nice to meet you." The girl said, extending her hand out for a handshake. "Listen, I don't care about your name. Just talk me where the triangle is" nightmare said harshly. The kids tensed and lead the two strangers out of the forest. "Okay, Will is with Dipper and Mable. They control him." Giddion said. Not a problem for Nightmare and Dust, they could just kill them. Easy.
