The Unknown Balance

Chapter 8 - Spreading.

hey guys, i just wanted to know if you are enjoying the story, and if you have any feedback :). ill try to upload every two weeks (on this book only) anyways, let the chapter begin!!

Error's POV

I took another step back. No, this can't be happening. First, FATE decides to destroy the multiverse, endlessly putting us in a cycle of loops, now, she has kidnapped Blueberry, his best friend and (not that he would admit it openly) the love of his life? It isn't fair. Why is Ink always so favored? Why did nothing ever go his way...?

Blue's POV

I felt so drowsy. What happened? The last time that I was awake, I was at Sci's place, and Sci was healing me. We chatted for a few minutes, then in an instant, Sci was... killed. I was in shock for a few moments, processing what I just saw. It was pretty gorey, I'll tell you that.

After Sci died, I felt my soul getting squeezed. I didn't notice at first, but then, it started squeezing faster. At one point it squeezed so much that my hp was going down, little by little. It was unbearable. It was at 0.1, and when it finally reached 0, everything went blank and I suddenly woke up here. I'm supposed to be dead. How did this happen?

Once I finally got the strength to open my non-existant eyelids, I had the suprising sight of Error being right in front of me. He looked... suprised, worried... maybe even desperate. Error noticed me being awake and looked so relieved. What was going on?

"Blue... oh gosh, thank god that you are okay." Error lightly smiled. Since I looked confused, Error explained to me what was happening. He looked at me with a dark look on his face. Thats when I realized that I was chained.

My eyes shot with fear. If it wasn't clear enough already, I am deathly afraid of FATE. The only person who can stand up to her is Destiny, but nobody has seen her for centuries. And even though I have been to FATE's place thousand of times, I have never seen this place before. That was scary. This means that FATE has some other corridors she doesnt want me knowing about.

Whatever, we can think about that later. My only concern now is getting the fuck out of here. Which made me realize I hadn't spoken to Error about my realization. I opened my mouth to speak, but, I couldnt say anything. Error looked at me confused. I tried forcing out a word, anything. Nothing came out.

Error seemed to realize something. "Blue... I don't think your vocal chords (I know skeletons don't have vocal chords, but in my au, the soul contains every part of the body that it needs to function. This is why that your soul breaks in half when you die, because your body parts are dead.) are okay..."

I started to panic. Can I not speak?? I tried making a noise, talking, yelling, screaming, ANYTHING. But nobody heard me. Because nothing came out. The only noise that was made was the chains rattling from me moving so much. I was so close to crying, but I cant cry. I want to be strong. Just like Error is.

Cross's POV

After King Nightmare and Dream left, we were wondering what to do. Since Nightmare strictly explained that we were not to kill anybody, us, the bad sanses were bored. Thats when Outer had the brilliant idea to come up with training. Great! Something I can actually do.

Though, the others greatly underestimated us. I was the referee, and the battle was Dust vs Outer. Dust obviously won. And in one hit, too! Jesus christ, are Blue, Ink, and Dream the only people who do things at that base?

The next up was Fell vs Horror. Well, techincally, Fell isnt part of the Star Sanses, but, since we actually wanted a "challenge", we chose Fell. 'Cause why not?
