--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On the fourth day you were at the castle, you already had breakfast, training and lunch. You were in one of the rare moments that you were alone in your room and tried to rest, your intuition screaming that someone would eventually drag you out of there, like always. Said and done, someone knocks on the door and enters shortly after. It's Cross "(Y/N), Nightmare wants to see everyone, including you." "I'll be up in a minute" you get up and follow the monster to the meeting room, which contains a long table. Nightmare is at the far end and gestures with a pat on the table for you to sit on his left side. You roll your eyes in disgust and sit there. Cross sits on your other side and the others are on the opposite, on the other side of the table.

"I called everyone here to discuss our next attack to destroy an alternate universe" He was describing the features of the the said universe and what each one would do until you got your part "Now you, Sweetie, will take charge of killing the weaker civilians .You might be strong and skilled for a human, but you still don't have any magic." "K-kill? I don't know if I could." "Come on, think you'll be releasing them from the burden of a miserable existence" It's true that life itself is just misery and thinking about death was comforting. But this was for you. It never crossed your mind what others thought about dying. Who were you to judge life and death? Still you answer "I'll t-try then" you lower your head, embarrassed by your answer "Good girl, Sweetie"

The details of the plan are discussed and then everyone is dismissed. The execution of the plan was for the next morning. You were going to your bedroom but you feel something gooey hold you back. Why? Why is it always the damn tentacles? You, still traumatized, start shaking and kicking "No, no, no!" "Calm down, Sweetie, I won't do anything. You haven't done anything wrong so far."

Your little meeting is interrupted by a thunderous noise coming from the entrance hall. Nightmare immediately teleports there, leaving you behind on foot. When you finally reach the top of the stairs, through the second-floor corridor, which leads down to the castle's main door, you see the five evil Sanses with their backs to you and facing a doorway. Killer yells "What's your problem with our door, Error? Do you have to explode it every time?! " "You know why I'm here!" you get excited to know that Error is there "E-error?" you appear among the skeletons "Muffin !!" you run down the stairs and Error runs towards you "Error!" Nightmare's four subordinates make a move to go get you, but the leader stops them by creating a barricade with tentacles and saying "Just watch"

The two of you are getting close to each other until you have a memory snap, remembering why you were there to begin with. You stop. Error finds your sudden stop strange and lower his speed until he stops a few meters from you. He takes another step and you take a step back. "Muffin?" "Y-you... I... No!" "What's it? Come! Let's get out of here, go home." "You! You lied to me!" "Huh? What?" "You lied! All this time you were tricking me! " "Of course not, what are you talking about? I..." "Oh yeah? How about this quote here: 'Since she's already broken, I'll fix her just to give her a stab in the back later' Does that remind you of anything? " you say trying to imitate Error's deeper voice, which in turn widens his eyes. How did you know about this? Despair hangs over him "N-no, Muffin, listen, that was before and..." "Lies!" you interrupt firmly in your low voice and continue "I-I can't take it anymore! Everyone my whole life, all damn liars! Go away! " "Muffin..." Error takes a few steps, determined to save you, but Nightmare teleports beside you, wrapping an arm around you protectively. "You hear the girl. She doesn't want you here. " "I didn't come here for nothing!" "Looks like you did, after all, she's here of her own free will." you think 'It wasn't quite like that either' and Error says "What!?" You don't deny. It was like a stab on Error's soul. He holds the middle of his chest like he's in pain. This pleases Nightmare. Even with the same heartache, you finally say "Leave me alone... Please." Right now, you two hold back the tears. A few moments pass and Error bitterly brings his nonexistent eyebrows together. He just turns and walks away.

When you can no longer see Error, you break down in tears. Nightmare hugs you and you hold tight to his shirt, burying your face in his chest, as it was the only thing you could cling to at the moment. You stop after a good while, the other four at the top of the stairs had already gone elsewhere, but Nightmare remained rubbing his hand on your back for as long as it took for you to calm down. You look devastated, with puffy and red eyes. The gooey monster teleports you both to your room and he lays you on the bed, stroking your hair until you fall asleep.
