Remembering from Nirvana

┊XXII┊The Sun Empire┊6┊

Error couldn't sleep.

It was either he couldn't or he can't, but for now, it's couldn't, as he doesn't know or remember if he's fallen asleep before.

Sighing softly, he slowly got out of the bed and puts on his glasses before he went back to exploring. He then glanced at the sleeping form of his escort, who was sleeping soundlessly under the covers. Error then moved besides Peril and glanced down at him and couldn't help but smile a bit, Peril looked quite peaceful in all honesty. He then moved away before he then went to a window and pushed the curtains back. He blinked in surprise when he saw that there was a little perch. What was it called again...? A... Bay window? Or was he wrong?

Ah, he probably was... But it was a pretty window. He sat on the edge of it and then leaned back on the pillows and glanced up at the sky. A sense of nostalgia washing over him, but not really knowing why. Has he done this before? He probably has. He couldn't help but smile a bit at the sight of the twinkling dots in the sky, he never noticed how pretty the sky looks at night... He likes it. He likes the scenery.

It was also pretty considering there's a couple of... Round objects, if he remembers, they're called planets...? Yeah, he thinks it's planets.

There was a pretty bluish one that looked like the blue sky, but it was more... Crystally, it also had some kind of white rings around it. It was the nearest one, and the most visible planet that he could see. It's as if that planet was actually the moon, but the moon is already there... Just in front of the planet, and bigger... Were moons always that big? He doesn't know. Then there's also another planet just behind the white ringed planet, but it wasn't as seen considering it's like... Blended into the black background of the pretty twinkling sky. He's never seen the night like this... Actually, he doesn't sense a feeling of familiarity with the scenery, which makes him guess that this is his first time of seeing such scenery.

He was quite glad that that was the case in all honesty, this was really pretty, and he loves it a lot.

He then blinked a bit when he heard a groan and glanced at the curtains. Was that Peril? It probably was considering they're the only ones in the room... Unless there's some ghost in here stalking them in the shadows, or a demon hiding somewhere...

Honestly, he doesn't even know why he mentioned that, what the hell even are ghosts and demons.

Error shook his skull and quickly poked his skull through the curtains and glanced to where Peril was, to see him moving around in his sleep. Error caught an annoyed expression on him just before he turned over. Could something be bothering Peril...? He then slowly got sown the window seat and began to walk towards Peril. "Peril...?" He couldn't help but whisper before jumping a bit in surprise when he began to hear whispers from Peril, something like 'No' and 'Don't!' Over and over.

Error quickly rushed towards Peril and then glanced down at his escort and slowly began to shake him. He feels like this is what he's meant to do, he was having a... A Night... Terror, right? Yeah, it was a Night Terror. "Peril wake up." Error whispered before yelping a bit in surprise when Peril sat up with a gasp, panting a bit and then quickly scrambling out of bed. "Peril...?" "Stay away from me..." Peril growled as he quickly summoned his knife, shakily pointing at nothing. "Peril!" This was getting out of hand now.

Peril quickly turned to Error's direction, but what he saw was not Error, but instead, something else entirely. Error could tell, Peril was looking past him. Error glanced down at the exposed target on Peril's chest, seeing as it was quivering a bit. "You're gonna pay!" Peril suddenly yelled, making Error quickly snap his view towards Peril and yelped, quickly dodging the swing of the knife. "Peril wake up!" This situation was familiar, all too familiar, but his memory doesn't want to come back or resurface. Uuugh! Curse his amnesia! "You hurt them you bastard!" Peril yelled before suddenly throwing his knife, Error quickly dodging it and glancing back at Peril. "Peril wake up! Please!" Error doesn't know what to do, he doesn't even know if he can call anyone!

Peril then summoned another knife, then another, dual wielding it before flipping it so that the knives were now facing behind him before he charged at Error and began to swing at him. Error quickly dodging as much as he could, honestly quite surprised that he's easily keeping up with Peril's swinging before he saw Peril's knife and rushed to grab it. Peril rushing after Error and jumping. Error then quickly grabbed the knife and carefully held it as he dodged the blow, quickly ducking and moving to the side to dodge the flying knives. Error looked up when he saw two dragon skulls floating and charging up some kinda black beams. Error softly cursed under his breath even though he doesn't even know what it meant. Grabbing the other knife and throwing it with perfect precision, successfully slicing the blasters in half and breaking it off.

Error then glitched behind Peril and then wrapped his arms around him while also holding his hands so he isn't able to summon anything else. "Peril snap out of it!" Error ignored the glitching that began to befall on his being, just holding on to Peril tightly. "Let. Go. Of. Me!" Peril hissed as he struggled, Error noted the less goopier liquid falling from Peril's eyesockets, most probably actual tears. "Peril, wake up, It's just me, Error." Error firmly spoke and Peril shook his skull. "No! You're lying! Error's not- not..." Peril couldn't help but gasp a bit. He doesn't recall Error in the battlefield...

"Peril, It's okay, It's Error." Error worriedly spoke as Perik then choked on a sob. "No... No no no, Error isn't- he's not..." Peril then began to see the world around him fall.

He's not seeing the battlefield anymore, he's seeing the room he's staying with Error. He's feeling strong arms keeping him from lashing out, he's noticing how they're now sitting on the floor. That was... "It's okay, it's just me." Peril then shakily glanced behind him to see the glitching form of Error before he breathed in. "I'm... I'm not in the..." No, he's not fighting gor his life... His friends wasn't dying... Right... That was- that was a long time ago... Crimson's not bleeding, Shroud's not unconscious and Silver's not... Not wounded... They're... They're not in the battlefield- he's not in the battlefield...

"It's okay, you're okay..." Error then buried his skull on Peril's as Peril then breathed in shakily. "I'm... I'm o-okay..." It's okay, he's not there, he's with Error... It's all in the past- he's okay, he's fine... It's fine.

"Yes, you're okay..." Error mumbled, holding Peril closer, moving his arms to under Peril's arms now, but still hugging him. Peril sighed and covered his eyesockets before wiping away his leaky tears. "I'm okay..." He said more firmly, yes, he's fine, he's okay...
