Everyone in the Bad Sanses team had faced at least one fear. Everyone but the king, Nightmare.

"Come on boss, you have to have at least one fear," the dark teared skeleton said, stepping closer to Nightmare.

"I do not have fears, stop prodding at me about it," Nightmare huffed at him.

The others knew it wasn't them pressing it, it was Killer who was wanting to know Nightmare's fears. Possibly to prank was part of the reason.

The king then saw something on the wall and his breathing hitched. He found one of his fears quite literally crawling around in this very place. It was the scariest thing of all. A spider. "Holy shit," he breathed out.

The hooded skeleton looked at Nightmare then at the wall he was looking at. "Huh, a spider, anyone want to get it?" He asked with his husky voice.

"I can eat it," the skeleton with a hole in the skull mentioned.

"If not, I can make it my pet, we can use it against the shits," the glitchy skeleton mentioned.

"That sounds weird to eat it, but wouldn't be a bad idea to have it on our side if we can train it," the black and white skeleton mentioned.

Killer looked at all of them and grinned. "Maybe we can have it on our team, if it has babies, Horror, you can eat them," he said, his grin widening a little.

"Ew, that is gross," Dust mentioned. "Imagine you eat it and you can feel it crawling around in your throat and stomach."

"Ugh, ruined my appetite," Error grumbled before teleporting away, not liking this one bit.

Nightmare was so busy about his team discussing the spider that he lost track of where it was. He frantically looked around then looked at the ground. He screeched and jumped like a cat in fear. It was by his feet before he jumped.

They all looked and began to laugh. "Holy shit boss!" Killer laughed, his grin wide with amusement. "You're scared of spiders?"

Nightmare's face flushed brightly as he looked away embarrassed.

"Aww, the king of nightmares is scared of a little nightmare known as a spider," Killer teased. "How cute."

"Fuck off, go and kill it," he told them. "I am most certainly not afraid of them. I just despise them and they are disgusting creatures."

Killer chuckled. "If you say so, little moon. We'll take care of it for you."
