Opposite Blue

Chapter 13 - A Sign

Dream's View:
I couldn't help but begin crying as Blue heard the recording...it was all staged. Shattered made me say everything, I wouldn't never think like that towards anybody. Shattered had locked me up in the wardrobe where Blue wouldn't dare to access with him in the room.

* That...that can't be real.

* Well it is. I hope this satisfies you.

* He's in here, isn't he.

I heard things being thrown around before everything stopped.

* Open it.

* There's nothing there that you want.

I started to see a wall being filled....even off he did open the wardrobe, Blue wouldn't able to see me, but I would be able to see him. Shattered unlocked the door and I saw Blue's watering eyes as he realised nobody was there. Blue dropped to the floor, sobbing.

* I'm sorry...but I told you he wouldn't be h-

* You may be able to fool Blue, but you can't fool me.

Nightmare was eye to eye with Shattered. I was too scared to find out what Shattered would do to me.

Teleport into the room and explain your actions to them.

That was his order. I teleported to the door and everybody turned around.

* Dream!

Blue came up and hugged me again, I hid the pain.

* Dream you can't hide it forever.

* Nightmare, I think you and Blue should go.

Nightmare looked straight into my eyes.

* Tell me the truth Dream.

* There is nothing to t-

I gasped as I felt the hiding spell coming undone. Every scar, every bruise, every cut, every hickey, every sore became present in their eyes. Shattered's eyes widened and so did Blue's. It was humiliating...

* P-Please stop looking...

Blue looked at Shattered.

* Y-You did this to him...

* He did this to himself.

Nightmare wouldn't stop looking at me. I went out of the room as Shattered and Blue began to argue. I was about to lock myself in the downstairs bathroom when Nightmare stopped the door from closing. He came in the locked the door.

It was just me and him.

He looked angry, frustrated, stressed...

* Nightmare s-

* He did this to you, right?

* ...

* Dream TELL ME.

You could sense the negativity from miles away.

* I d-did it to myself.

I mumbled, avoiding eye contact.

* No you didn't. You and I both know you didn't. How long did he do this for.

* Nightmare I don't-

Nightmare trapped me in a ball of negativity and it hurt.

* You have one minute before it kills you. Now tell me how long he did it for.

It felt as if I was drowning slowly but surely.

He would hurt me if I told anyone.
I didn't want to be hurt anymore...

Seconds went by and Nightmare realised I wasn't going to tell him anything; he let me go. I casted another hiding spell when I got upstairs.
