"So, how was your day today, Killer?" I ask Killer, while looking down at my bag of chips. It had been three weeks since Nightmare had forced me to live with him. So far, nothing too crazy has happened. Sure, Dust and Horror would fight about the most random things, but other than that, nothing too bad. There's only one thing that I really don't like while living in Nightmare's castle. Nightmare being possessive of me. For a full week, he would come out of nowhere and cling to me like a puppy. He would follow me everywhere, and make sure that I'm not trying anything funny. I did end up becoming good friends with his allies though. Killer especially. "Same as ever, I guess." Killer shrugged, as he opened a can of soda. "Although, I do have a question for you." Killer then asked, looking at me. "Ok then...?" I say, curious. Killer looked around, making sure we were alone, and whispered his question. "Did Nightmare always look like a goopy octopus, or did he look different when you met him? And if so, what happened? I've been trying to ask Nightmare about it, but he wouldn't budge." He said, quickly. I sighed, and put my bag of chips down on the counter behind us. "No. He didn't always look like a goopy octopus. He actually looked a lot like his brother." I answer, sadly. I remember when he didn't look so scary, and he actually looked really adorable and had really pretty lavender eyes. "I guess that Nightmare isn't coming back any time soon..." I thought to myself. "Wait, Nightmare actually looked like Dream before? I don't believe you. There's no way." Killer said, disbelief in his voice. "Well, I think I have a picture of him before he looked so scary. I can go get it so you will believe me." I said, pointing to the direction of my room. "Ok. I'll wait here." Killer said, while getting a chair to sit down on. I walk out of the kitchen. As soon as I put my hand on the doorknob, I feel arms wrap around me. I groaned, and turned around to see Nightmare. "Welcome back, Nightmare." I say, while trying to get his arms off of me. He doesn't budge, unfortunately, and he turns my body towards him. "It's good to be back from a mission. Especially because I can see you again." He said, while looking down at me. His voice sounded happier...kinda like how it used to be. I sigh, and turned around again to try and go to my room. "So, what were you and Killer talking about?" He asked. I froze, and realized that he was probably spying on me and Killer the whole time while we were talking about his past. "Nothing too special...just asking how his day was going." I said, half lying. I guess my half lie worked, because he let go of me and said "Ok, just making sure", before leaving. I go to my room, and looked through all of my drawers. Eventually, I found a picture of me, Nightmare, and Dream with flower crowns on our heads. I giggled to myself as I remember what happened in that picture. Dream forced me and Nightmare to wear flower crowns, and Nightmare had tried running away. Of course, he didn't get very far. I stuff the picture into my pocket, and go towards the kitchen, only to be met with Horror. I didn't like Horror as much as Killer, but he was cool. "Hey Horror, have you seen Killer?" I asked him, looking around to see if either Nightmare or Killer were around. "Um, I think Nightmare had to talk with Killer for a second. I don't know." He said, while taking a bite out of a chicken leg. I started panicking as I walked around the castle. "Oh no...what if Nightmare knew I was lying? What if he's hurting Killer right now?"  I think to myself, as I walk towards the throne room. I look in and saw Nightmare and Killer talking. I sigh with relief, and waited till they were done talking. I walk in and immediately get greeted by Nightmare. "Sorry, Y/N. I had to borrow Killer for a moment. He needs to go on a mission to OuterTale." He said, while putting a hand on my shoulder. "Oh, I see. Thanks for the information, I guess." I said, rubbing my arm. Nightmare simply smiled, and left me alone for the first time. I look back to Killer, who was also looking nervous. "I got the picture. I'll send it to you later and tell you what happened some other day via text, ok?" I said, quietly. He nodded his head "yes", and went to go find Error, I guess. I went to my room and stayed there for the remainder of the day. Before I went to sleep, I sent the old picture to Killer as promised. "There's no way that's Nightmare. He looks way too adorable." Killer responded. I chuckled, and sent him a reply. "Believe it or not, that's indeed Nightmare. His pout then and now are basically identical." I typed out. I hit send, and Killer responded with a bunch of laughing emojis. I turn my phone off, and tried getting sleep.

I absolutely HATED how Killer and Y/N were close. It angered me that Y/N wasn't acting like that around me as she used to. At least I was able to separate them so they wouldn't get too close. But still, their friendship bothered me throughout the whole day. I lay there in my bed, troubled about Killer and Y/N's close friendship. I look over at my alarm clock, which read 1:00 AM. "It's pointless. I can't sleep. I guess I'll just go to the kitchen and get something to eat." I think to myself, as I gotten out of bed, and walked towards the kitchen. As I'm sitting at the dining table eating some dark chocolate however, I hear the sound of someone knocking on a door. It stops for a moment, and knocks again. The strange part about it is that it didn't sound that far-away. "What the hell...?" I thought, as I got up to investigate. When I looked out into the hallway, I see Y/N knocking on my bedroom door. She looks...scared. "Y/N...?" I asked, confused. She shot her head towards me, and started crying. I immediately went to her and hugged her. "Hey hey, it's ok. It's ok. What happened? Did someone hurt you???" I asked, while keeping her close. "N-No, I-I-I'm n-not hurt. I-I had a-a bad-d d-d-dream..." She said, in between sobs. I felt really bad, and I took her to the kitchen so I can get her something to eat. I got her some cereal, and she seemed to stop crying entirely when she got done eating. "So...what happened in the bad dream?" I asked, concerned about her. She refused to answer, and I held her face in place where she had to look me in my eye. "Y/N, please tell me." I said. She took a breath in and started talking. "You...you killed everyone. Killer, Error, Cross, Ink, Blue, even Dream...the only person left was me...and you asked me to stay with you forever. I tried getting away, but that only m-made you a-angry..." She said, while tearing up. "The n-n-next thing I-I knew, y-you start-t-ted stabbing m-m-me...the w-whole time doing th-this, you w-were s-s-saying..." Y/N paused, trying to stop crying. I wiped her tears away with my thumb, and asked her to continue. "...you w-were saying 'If I can't have you, then nobody can't.' That's th-the last thing I-I heard before w-waking up..." she finished, putting her hands on her face. I simply pick her up, and took her to my room. I sit down on my bed, and lay her down on the bed. "Don't worry. I would never hurt you on purpose like that. You matter a lot to me." I say, while putting her blankets on her. "...Promise?" she asked, softly. I nod my head "yes", and laid down next to her. "Promise." I said, before falling asleep finally.
