Writer~San: Got a gif of a segment from Underverse (art and Underverse are definitely not mine). Just thought it would be fitting for this chapter. :3

(~Your POV + Time Skip~)

'Shouldn't of tried to run... Idiot..'

Horror has his weapon in front of him, "Error, why don't you step back?" Blue strings are tightly wrapped around me, keeping me bound by his side.

"I dOn't liStEN to YoU." Error is an abnormal Sans for sure. His clothes feature a range of dark colors from black blue to bright colors as red and yellow. Error's got a big attitude with the others.

'And I thought the way Horror and Dust fought was crazy..'

Error's constant glitching definitely contributes to his nickname, I think. The more I struggle, the tighter the blue strings become. At a certain point, I have to stop or it'll choke me completely.

Killer is frantic on the other side of the room, "She's not going to interfere with the plan. Just let her go! Nightmare, I've served you loyally ever since I met you. You trust that I would never do anything to interfere?! Please, let me have this one thing!"

Nightmare is yet another Sans, except he looks like he would come out of a tar pit more than anything else. One eye seems to be covered over with the goop while the other bright blue eye is clearly visible. Nightmare's clothes have kinda merged with his sorta-skeletal body. Plus, he has four large tentacles branching from his back, made of the same black material. Well, I'm not sure if they're just for costume because he hasn't used them for anything since my appearance.

However, I don't dare say or do anything. Dust has the same attitude, sitting on the stairs and watching them. Nightmare spoke calmly, "Dust, you knew about this?" Two of his tentacles move, twitching to the side.

"Not until yesterday." Dust crosses his arms, looking away while pulling his hood over his head.

'Oh my gosh. Seriously?! He's intimidated by this guy? Is Nightmare that scary?! Heck- I'm in trouble.'

Horror speaks up, "Boss, Killer's right! Y/N isn't going to affect anything!" "So it has a name now?" Nightmare looks down at me. I immediately shudder and glance away. I see him exchange looks with Error. "HEr cOdE isN't anYtHiNg I've sEen. A worThLeSS AnomALy."

"So then Glitchy, what does that make you?" I talk back. I come to terms with what I said, instantly regretting it.

'I wasn't supposed to say that out loud!'

Error's eyes go completely red with error signs. His glitching gets ten times worse. He harshly jerks on the strings and lets out a shrill scream, "S-S-S-SHUT U-UP!!!" I feel his strings wrap around my soul, squeezing it tightly. The pain shot through my entire being like getting slammed into a concrete wall.

I let out a small scream. All of my muscles tense up and put even more pressure on the strings, deepening the pain. Fighting the urge to cry, I slam my head into the floor.

"NIGHTMARE! DO SOMETHING!" Horror demands, losing his patience. Nightmare states, "The human's the one that decided to be a smart aleck. Why shouldn't they be punished? It's caused divisions in this group already."

'Why did I open my dang mouth?!'

Killer is standing behind Horror, freaking out and crying from worry. I feel horrible having to see it.

'I'm causing nothing but trouble.'

"Killer... Why did you let your emotions out, for a human of all things? Didn't you learn your lesson from Chara?" "SHE'S NOT LIKE CHARA!" Killer shouts furiously. Transparent, bright, red knifes spawn behind him and his pupils glow red. A magic attack no doubt.

Nightmare narrows his gaze, growling, "'Served me loyally.' One human comes along and this happens. What do you think you're doing? Who're those aimed at, Killer?" Killer realizes his mistake and his pupils shrink. The attacks disappear immediately, "W-Wait! Please-"

"SHE'S USING YOU. The only reason she pretends to care is so she can save her own life. You three were naive enough to believe it. And Killer, you've become so wrapped up in your emotions that you're not thinking straight. You've forgotten everything I've done to get you to this point. You were perfect. I HELPED YOU. Getting rid of those emotions will be harder now that we have to start from square one again...... If you can't do this, then I will." Nightmare has a dark tone, ordering, "Error, keep them back."

Horror snaps, charging forward, "DON'T TOUCH HER!!!" In the blink of an eye, Error had blue strings around his soul, "IF yOu won'T coMpLY, I'll maKe you." With one pull of Error's fingers, Horror's eyes go dark and he stops completely. Killer ran forward, pleading that they stop.

Horror suddenly turns and turns Killer blue, holding him still. All the while, Error seems to be enjoying controlling Horror like a puppet. All Killer could do is cry and scream as Nightmare's tentacles wrapped around me, lifting me up.

'I can't believe this. WHAT'S HAPPENING?!'

Dust didn't even dare to look. It broke my heart when I saw tears falling from the darkness of his hood.

Tears threaten to fall as I realize the urgency of the situation. There's no way out of this. I start to panic, squirming. Nightmare glares me down, saying firmly, "It's over. Don't come back."

Large black bones shot from the ground, impaling straight into my chest. I can't even move, immediately going into shock. My mind went blank as I took a shaky breath. I can hear Killer losing his mind, screaming my name. Error has a smile on his face, despite some of my blood staining his clothes.

The world went blurry, my heart no longer functioning. I was ripped away from them and thrown into just white. Harsh coughing basically killed my throat as I collided with a solid white floor. I'm choking on my own blood, scaring me further.

I'm aware of things, but I can't physically feel anything. Maybe it's better this way. How close am I to dying? More tears fell down my face as I laid there, numb. It's complete silence.

'Killer, I'm sorry. I'm sOrrY. I'M SORRY! IT'S ANOTHER NIGHTMARE, RIGHT?! PLEASE- WAKE ME UP! I DON'T WANT TO BE HERE!'

My breathing is staggering from my loud sobbing, not that breathing helped anyway. I could hear the strained wheezing coming from my throat. In front of me, on the white space, there's red. So much red. I couldn't process anything further, before everything quickly faded to black.

(~???~)

"HEY! GUYS! HELP ME! QUICKLY!"
.
"What is it Ink- OH MY STARS!"
.
"I knew something entered here but I didn't think it would be this! Come on, we need to save them!"
.
"Oh my! The human needs help! HURRY!"

Writer~San: Oh boy. Hey! I'm back. Sorry for the delay! Well, things didn't go so well with Nightmare. TwT In any case, it seems like someone has come to your rescue. Yep, most of you probably already have an idea of who they are, huh? XD I had to. Hope that y'all are anticipating for the next chapter as much as I am lol. CYA! *jumps into the void*
