Chapter 8- new 'home'.

It had been a few days after Ink had the conversation with Nightmare. Nightmare had agreed to join his dreams from now on and get Dream away from Ink.

Ink walked around the darkened castle , bared windows and long hallways. It sent shivers down his spine. He walked down to the kitchen, hearing noise coming from the area so wanted to check it out.

"Don't touch that-" was said as Ink walked in. It looked as if Killer was trying to take the knife Horror was using to cook. "Finee" Killer left the knife alone and sat down at the small table. Ink guessed they didn't eat together normally as the table was too small for a group of 6 to eat at. "Oh hello ink, didn't think you'd be out so quickly, how do you like the castel so far?" Killer asked as he noticed Ink at the doorway. "Oh, it's a bit creepy.. but nice" Ink answered honestly. "But it smells amazing in here, what are you making Horror?" Ink added, hyper.
They talk as Horror cooked. Ink started to think more positively of them. Yeah, they were murderers, but they aren't that bad when you get to know them.
Throughout the day, Ink spent more time with Killer and Horror, to get to know them better. The only person he was close to in any way was Nightmare, so he desided if he had to open up about what had been happening with Dream, he'd be more comfortable with telling monsters he knew then monsters he didn't, or didn't trust. Even so, would they care? Probably not, Ink thought,as he was an enemy before, and they love others suffering, don't they?
Either way, Ink decided to hang around Dust the next day, but knew that would be hard due to the fact that Dust stayed in his room for most of the day and night.

Ink went to bed, hoping Dream wouldn't follow them, but knowing him, he definitely would..oh well...
