Us? (Errorink) [On Hiatus]

Chapter 13: 《"Welcome"》

"You are dismissed."

-=Ink's point of view=-

Hearing every word spoken by Nightmare and Kira left me utterly shocked behind the big doors. But I knew I couldn't stay for much longer. I quickly pulled out my paint brush and splashed a puddle of ink to the ground, creating a portal and jumping through it. I soon landed to the ground. And it seems I landed in some kind of AU. I didn't recognise this type of AU that looked similar to Ruru's anti-void. The difference is that the ceiling looked dark with blue strings and ink scattered around.

'Wait, I recognise this place...' sudden flashbacks of me and Ruru's fights from the past made me remember this deserted place. Not knowing what to do, I wander through the vast space. After a few steps that felt like decades, I spotted a small figure to the ground. It was small, and it seemed like a skeleton? I crept up closer, and my guess was right. It was a black boned skeleton with his skull having a small part of it floating with ink. He had yellow and pink markings on his cheek. I picked him up, and he looks to be 4 years old. He beamed me a smile and started forwarding his arms towards me.

"Hello, little guy, how did you get here?" I asked, but only received a confused look. I noticed his ribs, arms, and legs covered in bandages. I used the end of my scarf and covered the smaller with it holding him with my left hand and him leaning on to my chest. I used my free hand to grab my paint brush to create another portal to my place. I jumped through and landed onto my concrete dark crimson colored floor. I stood up and placed him on a sitting position onto the couch. "Wait, I'll be back all right?" The child nodded, and I ran towards upstairs, rummaging through my drawers, looking for something that will make the child comfortable.

I found a sweater I rarely used, but I hoped it would at least serve as warm clothing for the child. It was a black sweater that had a star logo in the centre. I rushed downstairs and still saw the child unharmed and still in his place. I let out a breathy sigh of relief and walked towards him. I made him wore my sweater, and it was big that it reached his lower knee caps. I giggled that he started to nuzzle the sleeves to his knees. "Comfy?" I sat beside the child who nodded and scooted closer to sit on my lap, nuzzling his skull to my 'stomach'. I rubbed the child's skull, and I heard him purr in comfort.

'I guess I'll be taking care of him now. Hmm, I should give him a name.' I glanced at the child who fell asleep on my lap. 'Paperjam! Hm. It really suits him. I'll call him Pj for short.' I pat Pj's skull before whispering out...

"Sweet dreams, Paperjam."

-=Narrator=-

"WHAT!?" Everyone shouted in unison. Well, just moments ago after dinner was finished in the bad sanses's Manor. Kira informed Killer about the announcement. Which made Killer feel excited but held it in for the others to not notice. Soon, the meeting was held, and the others silently listened to Killer's report. Kira noticed Nightmare being very focused on Killer during this, which made her slyly grin mentally at him. Both were very obvious.

After the information Killer had announced to the sanses. A moment of silence was thick in the atmosphere. And that resulted in them being shocked about the sudden event. Which is what is happening now.

"KILLER!? YOU KNEW ABOUT THIS AND DIDN'T TELL US!?" Horror shouted, slamming his hands on the table. "Calm down, Horror, he must have had a reason he didn't tell us. Or was he ordered not to tell anyone." Dust defended. Killer nodded while sitting back at his chair beside Nightmare. "As what Dust said, I ordered him not to tell anyone about this. Not until Kira has made her decision." Horror sat back down in his seat. Error stared blankly at Killer. Dust and Horror gazed at an anxious Kira sitting beside Error. Cross was quietly processing the events that are currently happening.

"Yes, I accepted it and am now a member of the team. I am looking forward to working properly with all of you." Kira spoke, standing from her chair and bowing. "Well, welcome to the team, Kira." Dust said. "Welcome to the team! I guess." Horror followed. "I'll be looking forward to working with you, Kira." Cross added. "WELc0M3." Error lastly followed. She softly smiled at the members feeling slightly relieved.

_" We shall now be discussing our new target." Nightmare informed standing from his red cushioned chair. Everyone straightened their postures. "He is non other than Henry Siegfried. A wolf monster with no morals, mostly bankrupting other high existing companies throughout the multiverse. Our goal for now is to steal a special folder from one of his secured offices, which is the Le vida building. He is going to hold a celebration party in that building for its newly opening. If we can get enough information needed for his personal document, we can strike out a simple assassination on one of his vacation houses. Kira will be tasked in stealing the folder, Killer will be assigned to deactivate any sensors to his office. Dust and Horror for the lookout, Cross for taking out the unnecessary guards. Error for information and backup."

Nightmare announced, taking a short pause for his teams response. Kira nodded timidly of agreement for her assigned position. The others followed by saying, "Yes, boss." Or "affirmative." Cross raised his right hand, catching everyone's attention. "When will the celebration be held?" He questioned. They glanced at Nightmare. "Friday. Meaning two days before the celebration. Prepare on what you need for the mission. Kira, start training. It will be needed." She nodded, closing the notebook she had before the discussion started. "Meeting adjourned."
-----------------------------------------------

Knowing she needed help with training, she asked for help from the skeleton she trusted. "Killer, if possible, may you please help me with training?" She asked. He showed a small smile. "Of course, I would also be training." She felt relieved and continued to thank the skeleton. "We'll start from early in the morning. Meet me in the back garden, and then we can start." She nodded and thanked him once again before walking back upstairs for the night. Killer started organising the papers from the table in the meeting room and headed towards Nightmare's office to return the papers.

"Boss?" Killer asked while knocking on the door. "You may come in." After Killer heard his response, he slowly opened the door, earning a creek from it. Nightmare was sitting on his office chair gazing at Killer expectantly while twirling the pen on his palm. Killer walked in, closing the door behind him. Killer bowed with the papers tucked on his chest with his left hand. He then walked closer and placed the documents on Nightmare's desk. "Thank you." A small smile crept on Killer's face. Killer bowed once again and turned around to leave but was interrupted. "Killer." He watched Nightmare stand up from his chair and walked closer to him. "Observe her." Nightmare ordered gazing at the smaller infront of him. "Understood, boss." Killer replied, lowering his head. He then pulled Killer close with one hand behind his skull and one hand on his waist. Killer was shocked with his bosses sudden actions and Nightmare...

Gave him a peck on the forehead.
