"So why isn't Nightmare out right now?" Asked Cross. They were outside right now under a tree. The snow had melted a bit though it was still lightly covering parts of the ground.

"He is scared I guess." Said Corrupted. Cross was sitting in his lap.

"Of what?" Cross asked curiously.

Corrupted sighed. "He doesn't want anything to change. He doesn't want you to act differently towards him, now that I asked you to be my boyfriend." Corrupted explained.

Cross nodded. "Can you tell him that we can stay friends for me?" Cross asked.

Corrupted nodded. Nightmare smiled.

Sci was running around grabbing materials. Farm was watching him disappointedly.

"Again?" He asked.

Sci didn't answer. "You know maybe if you took more breaks you would be able to go faster." Said Farm.

Sci smiled. He did indeed feel more energetic and it was probably because he had taken a break. "I guess you are technically right, but I need to finish at least on more before I can take a break again." He said.

Farm sighed dramatically. He sighed again. And again.

"You know you're not helping." Said Sci. Farm laughed.

"I'm bored." He said.

"Then do something." Sci said.

"Hmmm-." Farm thought. Then he teleported away. Sci chuckled. He set down the second syringe in the container.

"Two down." He sighed tiredly. "Two to go."

(Bonus cause I thought it was funny)

Chara was on the roof.

"Jump!" Screamed Dust.

Chara looked down excitedly. 'Chara are you sure?' Asked Cross.

"Don't worry I've done it before." He said.

Cross was dumbfounded. 'YOU HAVE!?!?' Chara jumped off. Surprisingly he did a flip. Cross didn't watch. After all they shared a body.

Chara landed. They all cheered. 'Can I have my body back?' Asked Cross. Chara sighed, but nodded. Cross was back in his body.

"You think you can do it, Cross?" Asked Dust.

Cross shook his head nervously. "Ohh come on. Please?" Asked Dust.

A part of him really wanted to. The other part was looking at Dust's devilish smile. He shook his head again.

He was teleported on to the roof. "Come on Cross jump!" Exclaimed Dust. Cross looked down. He jumped.
(I'm gonna stop it there, but don't worry he didn't get hurt :D)

"Can you tell me about him?" Asked Cross.

Nightmare didn't look away from the tombstone. "What do you want to know?" He asked.

"Just- what did he act like?" Asked Cross.

Nightmare hummed. "Well- he kinda acted like you." Nightmare said in amusement. Cross' eyes widened.

"Really?"

"Yeah." Nightmare responded. "He was very curious about the world. I think he also had his memory erased before he came here." Nightmare thought for a while. "He also liked chocolate a lot like you." He smiled at Cross.

Cross seemed very interested. "But at the same time he was very different. Less outgoing. Didn't really like to talk to people. Except some." Nightmare said. He thought back to his past memories, but for the first time in a long time, he didn't think back to the day he left.

(~Flashback~)

Killer, Dust, Horror and Red were suspended in the air by bright blue stings. Outer was watching in amusement.

"So." Started Error calmly. "Who took my chocolate?" He asked keeping the same calm demeanor.

They all looked towards a tree, but quickly looked back as to not alert Error. Error, though, saw this and ran to the tree.

Nightmare jumped from behind it and started running away. Error used his strings to stop him. He yeeted Nightmare at the others, causing them to form a pile of childish murderers.

He grabbed the chocolate bar out of Nightmare's hand, and went on his way, chuckling to himself.

Outer laughed. "I guess next time you know not to do that." He said mostly at Nightmare. Nightmare sighed but nodded happily.
(End)

Cross laughed. "Why DID you take his chocolate?" He asked. Nightmare shrugged.

"I wanted to see him. He acted kinda like Outer. Always stayed inside either in the white room or watching tv under Epic's supervision." Nightmare explained.

Cross nodded. "How did he act around Corrupted?" Cross asked.

Nightmare thought for a while. "Well-"

(Again)
Error was pulling Corrupted's tentacles with his strings. To someone watching from far away, this may look like Error was hurting him, but it was quite the opposite. Though Corrupted may act like a heartless monster, he really is just trying to stay alive. It was embarrassing for Corrupted to admit, but the voices inside Error's head, though they fed him, scared him.

The pulling that Error was doing was helping Corrupted focus on the real life. He would hallucinate thinking that these voices were real. Error being there with him, helped him remember that they were just voices.

Corrupted sniffled as a single tear went down his cheeks. Error sighed sadly and looked down. He threw a small doll that looked like Corrupted at him. Corrupted smiled. "Thanks." Corrupted muttered. Error nodded, not wanting to show too much emotion, but smiled.
(End)
"There relationship was kinda codependent." Nightmare explained. "Error's voices would feed Corrupted's hunger for negativity, and in return he would take them away from Error."

Cross smiled sadly. He put a hand on Nightmare's arm. Nightmare turned to look at him. "I'm sorry." Cross whispered.

Nightmare perked up. "Why?" He asked confusedly.

"I'm sorry that he left." He said softly.

"It wasn't your fault." Nightmare said.

Cross gave him a sympathetic smile. "I'm still sorry. He seemed very close to you, and you seem to really miss him." Said Cross.

Nightmare nodded in understanding. "I was." He muttered. "And I do." He whispered under his breath as he thought back to a memory. When he had the same talk with Error. He smiled. They were so alike.
