Chapter 5- vials

Nightmare led Ink to a room in the castle, it was a bit dark, but had more colors than the castle, way more colorful than the cell. Ink looked around, now not sure how he'd be able to protect the AUs, since he's with the enemy's. "You aren't allowed to leave the castle yet. Not on your own." Nightmare states, letting ink get comfortable.
"Ok.." ink says, sitting on the bed. It was comfy, and had more fluffy blankets. He looked at nightmare, confused why they were treating him like this, did they really want him to stay? Wouldn't Error be mad? Since he wants me dead?- even though I can't die- kinda.
"call my name when you need something... or whatever." And with that Nightmare leaves Ink to think about what's happening and to get comfortable.
Ink lays down, remembering that Swap is stuck with Dream right now, and could be hurt, or helping Dream look for him. He wanted Swap to be safe and far away from Dream but he couldn't right now, he didn't have broomy or even his vials.
Ink kept thinking, thinking the worst would happen to Swap, soon tearing up and hugging the blankets. His vials were still in effect, for now anyways.

- many hours later -

Ink was still up, his emotions fading out, needing his vials. "Nightmare!!" He yelled as loud as he could, not knowing how close night really was. Nightmare quickly opens the door. "What ink?." He asks, a bit annoyed since he was just passing the door. "I need my vials.." Ink says, his eyes light white. "Fine. Where are they?." Nightmare asks. "I don't know. I had them before I passed out... who brought me here probably has them.."
Nightmare rolls his eyes once he notices who had them. "Error... I'll be back. Just stay in here." Nightmare leaves the room, leaving ink alone again. Ink sighed, laying there, not having much to do in the room.

It had been an hour, Ink was just staring at the ceiling, as Nightmare walked in, holding inks vials. Nightmare soon speaks up "here, Ink. Take them.. Or whatever you do with them.." "alright" Ink replies as Nightmare hands him his vials.

After taking his vials, Ink looks at Nightmare, tired, soon asking him an odd question. "Can you go into my dream again.." Nightmare looked at Ink, puzzled as to why he wanted him there. He soon replied after a long silence. "Fine.." Nightmare soon gets up. "Ill see you there..."

Nightmare walks to his own room, curious to see why Ink had wanted him there. Ink could have a chance to get Dream to help him, save him, yet he'd rather tell his captor to stay with him while he dreamed. Maybe he wanted to gain his trust? Or wanted an excuse to hide? But from what? Dream and blue are his best friends, why would he hide? Maybe they got into an argument? There were too many possibilities for Nightmare, but he knew he would find out soon.

Nightmare falls asleep, seeing into the dream realm, or so he called it. He had been here many times to help his subordinates. He spotted Inks dream having a very positive aura in it already. He knew his enemy had already joined, but with such swiftness, it puzzled him.

Hesitantly, he joins into the dream, ready for anything that could happen.
