I felt cold, chilled down to my marrow as I just floated there. When I tried to think of how he got here or what was happening, his thoughts bled through my fingers like water cupped in the hands. Then I felt a warm presence engulf him, driving away the cold; it felt like a warm parental hug. "I am sorry that you had an end that way. That must have been extremely painful." In a moment of panic, I actually was able to put together a thought. 'W-who?' But it slipped away as soon as they came. "I had to grab you before Fate reset so you'll be able to help Destiny's chosen, and be able to protect the tree of feeling more effectively and have the scale remain balanced." Then I felt weighed down, and fell.

"Hello little ones, you will be the guardians of the Tree of Feelings as I can no longer keep up the mantel. I must tell you to be weary of others, as other people has lead to my end I do not wish the same onto you two. Your name will be Dream; you are the guardian of positivity ." She sounded strained and sad when saying these words. I felt her eyes on me, then the her gaze shifted the kind woman's voice continued "And yours is Nightmare, you are the guardian of negativity. Please work together to help each other learn so you both can have someone to rely on. " I could feel myself being lifted with ease. I felt my body not responding to me, everything in my body is numb. 'What happened to me, where am I?' The kind voice continued, "I am sorry that I can't stay with you, but please protect each other and the tree." I suddenly felt constricted, squeezed like in the hand of a giant with a vengeance against me. Oh that just makes it worse as it's hot, hot to the point I feel like and melting from the inside out. It suddenly burst and I was free I could breathe again!

The kind woman's voice made a quiet gasp of disgust as she gave off a distress aura, and then I was enveloped heavy feeling nice and cool, I felt calm and became so tired. I immediately fell asleep, feeling a presence beside me hugging me.

When I woke up again, I knew I was supposed to be dead. I still felt the phantom pains dance over my bones, leaving me shivering. 'I'm supposed to be dead. I remember what's left of my brother killing me.' I opened my sockets and all I saw was purple. 'H-huh?..where am I' I glanced up and completely froze.

I saw the face that, I saw last, being swallowed by darkness as a mob behind me chants for my own marrow and bone the chant of death, staring at me with fear and sadness. I saw my brother....

"N-Nightmare.."

I immediately shot up and returned the hug, pushing my face into the crook of his neck and just absolutely sobbed. 'W-What, how is he back! How am I alive, am I in the afterlife now!?!' I quickly get my face out of his neck and glance around.

The first thing I notice is that Nightmare is still asleep. Then I look up at the tree we are leaning against. I see golden glowing apples and with them where midnight-colored ones speckled with purple and cyan. 'Mom.... The Tree of Feelings what is happening?'

I tried to think back to what exactly happened after my death. I vaguely remembers feeling a presence and weightlessness, then a voice that is blurred in my mind.

'Come on Dream, remember, it must have been important.'

The voice is becoming clearer in my head that the voice said someone called Fate was doing a multiverse reset. 'Who's Fate and what's at play here, it sounded like the voice didn't like Fate by the contempt in their voice.' Making me shiver at the thought, 'If this person didn't like Fate and was able to save me from death, what was so wrong with Fate? To make them have such an amount of hatred in their voice when just saying their name?' I then realized that my thoughts were all blurred together. Making up my mind, pin that to the back of my consciousness, so I can go down that road at a later date when my mind was less fogged.

But for now I just stare at my twin's face. I bring up my hand and trace his face's pearly white bone. I felt all my stress bleed from be like an open wound and suddenly I feel exhausted. I slump down back on Nightmare's chest. The smell of lavender and apple greets me, making me dive into darkness once again.
