Nightmare passive POV

Empty....

All I saw was emptiness...

And then I felt something enveloping my body, something the same color as the void, something dark and sticky, as if it were a goo, the goo had taken over my whole body and when was about to cover my head, i heard a voice say "I protect you" the voice was gravelly and hoarse, and the next thing I knew the goop had swallowed me whole.

I woke up startled and in a cold sweat. As I caught my breath, I noticed that I wasn't next to the tree of feelings, instead I was in a dark and spooky room, wrapped in thick, warm sheets. I looked around, noting that the room only had; a double bed, two bedside tables, a closet on the right side of the bed and a window on the left side of the bed, with thick curtains blocking out the sunlight.

Among all the thoughts that came to my mind, I just asked myself 'how did I get here? Where is Dream? Am I... still alive?' Shaking my head, I pushed those thoughts away and decided to find out for myself… even though I was scared.

Getting out of bed, with my feet already touching the floor, I felt a lump in my stomach and then a lump in my throat, falling on my knees I vomited a black and sticky goo, like the one I had seen in my dream. The goo thickened more and more, seemed to never end, already out of breath and with tears in the corners of the sockets, the goo finally stopped.

As I caught my breath, I noticed that the goo was moving, the goo started to create a skeleton-shaped body, when its body was complete from head to toe, the goo looked around confused before noticing my presence. The slime gave a slight start when it saw me, it still looked confused, looking at itself and seconds later at me, while the being stared at me, I realized that it was almost the double size as me, which scared me, making me hesitate whenever I thought of saying something. Of all the thoughts that came to my mind the only thing I thought was 'Who is this guy and what will he do to me?'

Nightmare corrupted POV

'We... parted? How? How do I have a body if it's in front of me?' I thought to myself as I stared at the skeleton in front of me, which was stumbling as it tried to get up. We stared at each other for a full six minutes, during which time my only eye fixed on his, noticing that he was trapped in his thoughts and when he came back to reality, he abruptly looked away from mine, looking at the small bedside table on his right.

"D-do…" He stuttered bringing his gaze to meet mine. "Do you know where I am?"

"You're in my castle." I said

"huh? Castle?" Confusedly, he looked the room up and down. "Right... But why am I here? And where is Dream?"

"Dream..." I muttered, moving my head to the side contemptuously, just hearing that name got on my nerves.

Nightmare passive POV

After asking about my brother he seemed kind of..... annoyed, without saying anything he walked towards me making me go into despair, but he just walked around me and went ahead towards the bedside table that was on the left side of the bed. Stopping in front of the drawer, something similar to tentacles came out of its back going towards the drawer, one of them opened the drawer while the other took out a medium wooden box with the corners cut in gold, while the first tentacle closed the drawer, the another placed the box on the bed, pushing it towards me.

"This is for me....?" I asked, he gave a slight nod in affirmation. "R-right..."

Taking the box, I open the small latch and with both thumbs, still a little hesitant, I open the box slowly to find something golden, looking like a crown...

Sorry for the spelling (I don't know English so I just googled everything) and if the story was a little confusing or meaningless, I promise I'll improve
