Someone else's shoes [ Errormare ]

Wasted [8]

[Error]

Error paced down the hallways of the mansion, he had been up for a little while cleaning small bits of the mansion…he had sent Horror and Red to clean the outside while Cross and Dust stayed to clean the insides of the house.
“Error..can't I swap places with Horror…?” Dust complained as he swept the living room floor.
“No, I put you there because you and Red like to wander off for hours without warning.” Error pointed out.
Dust was about to give Error a smart comeback when Cross laughed from the other room.
“Red and Dust go to Echotale to CUDDLE!”He taunted from the kitchen.
Dust’s face turned purple and he quickly pulled his hood over his face.
“I wasn’t aware you’re a stalker, Cross!”Dust shouted back angrily.
Error sighed, they were starting to give him a migraine. “Shut up, both of you, before you get stuck with the backyard!”
Cross and Dust immediately went quiet, Error assumed they had never heard him yell before…or they just really didn’t like the backyard.
‘I wonder how Nightmare is holding up…he headed off to go destroy an AU and hasn’t come back for a while…’Error leaned against a wall, half watching Dust and half spacing off.
Dust needed to be watched, Cross was more responsible though..so he could be left alone.
‘I hope he didn’t go after a core AU..those are tougher to take out, I would have just gone for a copy of Underswap.’He thought as his soul twitched.
Suddenly, he felt something click, he felt lighter now…Nightmare had destroyed an AU.
‘Huh..that’s convenient.’Error shrugged it off and went outside to check on Red and Horror.
The Glitch went outside and looked around the front for any sign of the duo and finally found the two goofing off on the fence.
“Boss! Horror is-” Red was about to finish his sentence when Horror whipped around with blood dribbling from his chin.
“...He ate one of Nightmares chickens…”Red fidgeted while Horror plucked a dark bronze feather from his teeth.
Error huffed, pinching his nose in annoyance.
“It’s been a total of 6 minutes I’ve left you guys alone and you manage to kill one of Nightmare’s chickens…” He grumbled.
“SIX!”
Horror and Red exchanged worried glances and Red stammered. “..C-can I swap jobs with Cross..?”
“Not until you get this mess cleaned up and hidden so Nightmare doesn’t find it.” Error said finally.
The glitch headed back inside, he was fairly annoyed now to the point he had begun glitching more.
“Error, Dust and I cleaned the living room and kitchen,” Cross reported from his room, Dust had long left, probably to catch up with Red…again.
Coughing came from upstairs and Error looked up to see Nightmare with multiple bleeding wounds standing at the top of the stairs.
“I kinda got walloped back there, not going to lie.”He grinned, coughing up blood.
Error was a bit startled by Nightmare’s condition…The god of negativity was beaten up by some pathetic anomaly.
“Can’t killer heal you??”Error shouted to the black skeleton in a slightly worried tone.

“No..they all went to goof off in the woods.”Nightmare mumbled. ‘I can’t rely on them for anything..’Error thought, annoyed.
Nightmare shifted on his feet a bit before speaking again, a little hint of pain in his tone.
“Could you heal me…?”
Error paused like a deer in headlights. “Me?”
“Who else would I be talking to?”Nightmare asked as he sat at the top of the staircase.
