(Just a smol angst story bc why not)

(What happens when Nightmare finally rules the multiverse....but loses his teammates while doing so?)

He did it

Nightmare finally won

He killed his brother, Blue, and Ink....

But they also killed his precious teammates, Killer, Dust, Horror, Error, and Cross...

What would he do without them?

He stumbled through the cold, empty battlefield, there was dust, multicolored bones and blood everywhere, he was drained of his energy...

He wanted to give up...

He got what he wanted, right?

To rule the multiverse?

He should be happy...but

He can't be

His only friends are gone...

He gathers up an item from each of them

For Killer, he takes Killer's bloody knife from the ground

For Dust, he took dust's scarf that was pinned on a sharp bone

For Horror, he takes Horror's favorite axe that was stuck in a tree

For Error, he took Error's scarf that was almost blown away in the wind

For cross, he took the heart locket that he kept with him at all times

He then teleported himself back to the castle and placed the items on the table, then went back and gathered each of their clothes, Nightmare then went in the backyard and buried each one of his friend's clothing like burying a body, this was something monsters did since it was not always easy to find monster dust, but it was easy to bury clothes and belongings, he then placed a wooden cross on each grave and wrote their names on the crosses, he then stepped back and saluted to his friends that had fallen in battle.

He went back for the items on the table and he picked them all up again, he then went to his office and found an old display cabinet that he had never used, it was made of dark polished wood and had see-through glass doors with four wide shelf's inside, he neatly folded the two scarfs he had and placed them separately on the shelf, he then got the golden heart locket that Cross had and put it on the shelf as well, then he got stands for Horror's axe and Killer's knife and he put the weapons on the stands, he then sighed and shut the glass doors, he then reached up and touched his cheek, only to realize that he had been crying but he was too numb from the cold to realize it...

..what was a king without his loyal subjects?

He then realized

He had gotten what he wanted

But lost what he had

He noticed a small book peaking out from a stack of papers on his desk, it looked interesting so he took it out, and he looked at it, it was a beautiful shade of royal purple and had a gold spine, it also had gold on the corners and it read "Bad Sanses Memory Book!"

He opened the book and in each page there was a photo of him and his crew's precious moments together, that one time they all went drinking to hang out, the time where they went to a restaurant together, the time they visited a beautiful AU, a picture of them stargazing in outertale, etc, Nightmare hated positive emotion....but these pictures made him smile a little, he flipped to the last page and it said

"Happy Father's Day Nightmare!"
"From: Killer, Horror, Dust, Error, and Cross"

Each name was written in crayon, Killer's color being red, Horror's color being green, Dust's color being grey, Error's color being blue and Cross's color being black

He then opened the cabinet one last time

...he placed the book in there and placed his crown on top of it

He then knew that he was no longer needed here

He didn't want to be here anymore despite finally being able to rule the multiverse...

So he went to the battlefield again, took one of Dream's arrows that was stuck in the ground

And he stabbed himself straight through the soul

And he died, right there....

(Just felt like writing something sad, but it's late Father's Day so screw it lmfao)
