A Taste Of Hope

Chapter Six

Ink enters the Au timeline as he closes the door behind him and in a quick flash of light, the door disappears from existence.

Ink hardly gave it a glance as he immediately follows the sounds of magic being used as he soon encounters a battle being in place.

And by battle, he ment a very one sided one.

He watches Dream as he barely dodges the many bones and strings that were sent towards him by Error, as Ink could easily tell that the glitched demigod was going fairly easy towards the poor Gaurdian as he huffed in exhaustion.

'Damn, Dream is getting absolutely wrecked by Error.'

'Nooooo, not the bean!' ToT

'Welp, rip Dream,'

'#child abuse,'

'F,'

Ink lightly hums in acknowledgement as he teleported towards the nearest floating boulder as he sat down on the rough surface and decided to watch the rest of the 'fight' from a distance.

The 'battle' before him, mainly contained Dream dodging and avoiding the many attacks that were sent towards him as he panted heavily from clear exhaustion. However, his eyes and his stance, pumped with a feirce Determination that not many Sanses have as Dream continues to stubbornly face the one sided fight head on.

Ink couldn't help but feel slightly impressed from that motion alone as very few Au Sanses gained, and survived, having the trait of Determination, and even fewer were lucky enough to naturally have it.

The battle continues on for a few more minutes as a feeling of slight boredom started to grow inside of Ink as he debated on interfering with the training session or not. When all of a sudden, something soul stopping took place.

Dream tripped over himself in middodge as his body collapses from overexertion, as his skeleton body was unfortunately, very unused to the intense training session he was currently having. As a rather large bone was heading straight towards him.

Error's, and Inks eyes widen, as they both realized a little too late at the possible death the golden gaurdian was going to face as Dream stared directly at the bone in fear, as time suddenly seemed to slow down. All of a sudden, a familiar, black, gooy figured, was formed right infront of Dream, as a black, thick substance, sprouted from their back and was able to easily nocked the bone right out of the air and far away from them both.

"Honestly Dream," A deep dark voice rumbled, almost sounding like a growl as a single sharp cyan eyelight stared at two shaky, golden ones. "I knew you were stupid, but going off to train, immediately after spending centuries in stone, is pure idiocy, even by your standards." He scoffed as he fully faced Dream "Tell me, did you felt the heavy need to prove yourself to them, or were you so simply high up your horse, that it didn't actually accure to you that you've gotten weaker after hundreds of years in solitude?" He snapped as Dream flinches in response.

"N19h+m@r3, +h@t'$ 3n0u9h fr0m ¥0u, ¥0u h@v3 n0 bu$1n3$$ h3r3 1n 0u+3r+@l3. $0 1'm 901n9 +0 k1ndl¥ @$k ¥0u +00 l3@v3." Error stated as he narrows his eyes and a new batch of strings were tighed to his fingertips.

"Leave? How rude, especially since I haven't seen my own twin brother in 500 years." He said with slight venom in his voice as he pronounced the word 'brother' as Dream turns to the ground with hidden sorrow.
