Opposite Blue

Chapter 5 - Rescue

Nightmare's View:
2PM
I healed Dust's last wound and made sure everybody else was ok.

* We need to get Blue back!
Killer exclaimed.

* Let's go then.

* Wait- you already know where he is?!

* Tracking device.
I opened a portal and we all stepped through.

Blue's View:
I tried to use magic but the chains were magic depleting. My voice was sore and I had no energy left. Papyrus opened and door, holding a gun. He ripped my soul right out of my chest.

* P-Papyrus...
I could barely speak; he began to lick my soul but I could feel nothing anymore.

* You're body is so beautiful...~
He touched me as he wanted. He got two fingers and entered me and I began to cry. The pain escalated so much.

He never stopped until we heard something upstairs.

* If it's your friends you won't like it.
He kicked me over and I groaned in pain.

Nightmare's View:
Papyrus teleported to us and Horror grabbed him, holding his axe to his neck.

* We'll give you one chance to free Blue.
I said threateningly.

Papyrus smirked.
* You shouldn't cross my lines, if you don't be careful Blue will be stuck in a room of fire.

I grabbed him with a tentacle and began to strangle him.

Blue's View:
I broke my arm to free myself from the chains. There had to be a way out. I banged on the trapdoor hoping for something to hear.

* Boss I hear banging.
I heard footsteps and then saw Cross and Killer. They tried breaking the trapdoor open but it wouldn't budge.

Then all of a sudden, a bang, then another.

* BOSS! B-HEY!
Dust was yelling. Killer went to help but Cross still continued to get the trapdoor open.

3PM
Cross finally jammed the door open and grabbed me, using magic to get clothes on me. He carried me upstairs and my eyes widened as I saw Nightmare on the ground, in pain. The others were trying to help his pain but it seemed to be getting worse. Cross opened a portal back home and we all went through. Cross laid me down...my sides hurt.

Nightmare pushed the others away even though they were only trying to help him.

* Nightmare you need to get the wind cleaned, it'll get infected.

* How many times do I have to tell you, I'm fine.

He went to his room, slamming the door behind him. Dust helped me to my room.

* Will he be okay...?

* Hopefully, he can be so stubborn sometimes.

He left my room and I sat up and took the healing tablets on my bedside table.

6PM
I knocked on Nightmare's door nervously. There was no reply so I let myself in. Nightmare was breathing deeply as he tried to clean the deep wound. I rushed to his side.

* That's not how to clean a wound Nightmare!
I helped him, cleaning and wrapping his injury.

* Thank you...
We went downstairs and made dinner for everyone, they all loved my tacos.

7PM
I stared at my food, I had only eaten half. But I was determined to finish my food without flaw. I picked it up and stuffed in my mouth.

* I- that's not how to-

I ignored Horror's words and munched down the food. They all looked in surprise.

* Well done, you didn't even have to get Nightmare to nag you.

I smiled and went to wash my plate.

Dream's View:
I finished washing the dishes and said good night to Ink. Opening the drawer, I took out my pills from under the old diaries of mine. That way, nobody could find it. I took four, today had been a rough day; I needed to confront him.

Confront who you may ask?

I opened my eyes and saw I was opposite a larger mirror, as usual.

* Why hello again D-

* Why did you do that today?!
I asked, angrily.

* You wanted revenge, didn't you?

* No I wanted Blue to understand that he left those who saved him. You and I both know I never wanted him to do back.

Shattered banged on the mirror, a small crack appearing.

* You have no control in this, and you never will. I'll make sure of that.

He continued to hang on the mirror. What was he trying to do?! A final hit broke it completely and he was free, throwing himself at me.

* G-Get OFF ME!
I yelled, trying to wake up.

He grabbed my soul, the his own, merging them together.

* W-WAIT STOP!
I watched anxiously as my soul darkened, Shattered's grin getting wider and wider.

* W...w...d-don't do th....
My words began to slur as everything darkened.

And soon after, I woke up into nothingness. My head was pounding but I stood up. Nothing. Just floating pieces of paper. I grabbed one and it took me to the past.

Past Dream's View:
I showed Nightmare the invitation, smiling.

* No Dream. I told you I don't trust them.

* Nightmare just this once, it would be mean to reject the offer!

* No.

* Well I'm going.

* Go alone then.
And so I did.

I sat down and smiled as Mother poured a cup of tea.

"Take as much as you want, and feel free to take the test for your brother🙂" she said, going to wash dishes.

I thanked her before drink a warm beverage. I finished my first cup before going onto my second. Mother stepped out of the kitchen but kept the door very slightly open.

"Why is it taking so damn long?"

"I double the dose, he should've been out by now...I don't know why it's taking so long."

I froze in my plate. Everything went blurry.

This couldn't be right...
I didn't do anything...

I got up and went through the back door, falling to the floor.

"D-Dream!" Mother tried to help me up but I hit her away.

* G-Get away from me!
I tripped and ran back to Nightmare. I couldn't see anything anymore...

* N-Nightmare-!
Nothing. No response. I held onto the sun cape on the tree and kept on calling his name.

* Pathetic isn't it.
A tentacle grabbed me, raising me into the air. I gasped for air, trying to feel my way around. The negativity was unbearable.

* N-Nighty p-please h-h-help!

I got thrown into the tree, the feeling of blood trickling down my skull.

Dream's View:
* No...
I ripped the paper and the pain sparkled through me. They were everywhere.

I needed to get out.
Somehow.
I couldn't bare with the past anymore.
Please...
