A different tale (DISCONTINUED)

We will always protect you

Nightmare POV:

I had just locked myself in my room after running away from the bad sanses because they were questioning me. I know that they are headed up here since I can hear them running up the stairs.

I quickly look around for a place to hide. 'The bathroom! I can lock the door and find somewhere to hide there.' I thought. But as I ran to the bathroom, I started coughing up black tar. 'Crap! This is a bad time to go passive!' I thought as I once again started running to the bathroom.

When I made it in, I made sure to lock the door behind me while searching for a hiding spot in there. Luckily, I found a closet just big enough to fit my small body there.

As I climbed in, I could feel more of my corruption coming off, and I coughed more up.

I didn't want them to find out I was a female so soon. After what happened in Dreamtale, I've been trying so hard to keep it secret. I didn't want to repeat history.

I could feel my legs giving out as I fell to the floor. My vision started getting blurry as all I could see was the horrible event that took place that day. I could see my clothes being ripped off, my body being touched in numerous places, and the humiliation I had to face.

I unconsciously put my hands over my ears as tears slipped down my face. 'Please stop.......' I quietly whispered to myself.

Suddenly, I felt two strong arms pull me out of the closet and into a warm embrace. My face was stuffed into their chest.

Bad sans POV: 10 minutes prior

Dust POV

We all looked at the stairs that the boss just ran up. "C'mon guys we have to go get her!" Killer shouted as he ran up the steps, followed by the rest of us.

So earlier, I and the rest of the bad senses had noticed our boss's suspicious activity so we decided to question her. Question after question, when we came to our final question, 'are you a female boss.', she panicked and ran up the steps.

So now we're trying to get her back.

"Guys it's locked!" Shouted cross as he shook the doorknob. "Alright move aside guys." Said killer as he backed up. We all moved out the way as he ran up and kicked the door down.

"Boss!" We all shouted across the room while looking in every hiding spot we could think of. "Guys the bathroom door is locked too!" Yelled horror as he summoned his ax and broke the hinges off.

We all ran into the bathroom to look there. It was pretty big too. I went over to the closet and opened it and saw a small figure with long purple hair softly sobbing with their hands over their ears.

"Guys I found her..." I said quietly, but loud enough for the rest to hear. They all ran overhead to see. I gently scooped her up and put her in a warm embrace. Then we all teleported to the living room and sat down, some rubbing her back, others rubbing her head, as she continued to sob in my chest.

I couldn't help but blush a little. I've had a crush on nightmare for a long time now, and the rest said that they also did, so we all agreed to share her if we ever confessed.

3rd POV

"Why........why..." nightmare spoke quietly. "Why would you do this for someone like me." "Because we all care about you nightmare." Error replied, using his scarf to help wipe the tears off her face.

"But why would you all care for a monster like me....?" Nightmare spoke again, her voice cracking a little. "Maybe this will tell you." Dust said as he held her head. Nightmare looked up in confusion until she felt a pair of lips on hers. Her eyes widened in shock.

"I wanted to be boss's first kiss..." killer muttered under his breathe. Horror just chuckled at his jealousy, though kinda feeling the same way.

When they parted, nightmare was at a loss for words. She never thought that anyone could love her romantically, and she won't lie, she's had a crush on her fellow bad sans members for a while now but gave up because she never thought they'd return the feelings, but yet here she was.

"We all love you nightmare, we have for a while now." Dust said, hiding his blush in his scarf while avoiding eye contact with her.

Nightmare didn't realize she was crying until she heard cross say "oh no please don't cry!" "I'm sorry it's just...I never thought you guys would love me back, or anyone would love me." She said while wiping her tears. "I've loved you guys for a while now but I never thought I'd ever hear you say that to me of all people." She said with a sad smile.

She accidentally squeaked a little when she felt dust hug her from behind, his face buried in her shoulder. Then she felt more of them hug her from a different side. "So you love us all then?" Killer said with hope in his tone. "Y-yes. I love all of you guys." She said, face covered in purple blush.

After a while, they all started talking about the most random things, while still in their little cuddle pile. Eventually, they fell asleep, but a certain female was having a nightmare and was whimpering in her sleep.

Dust had woke up because of it, so he grabbed her and stuffed her face into his chest while wrapping his arms around her. She stopped whimpering after a while and then everyone was asleep once more.
