---Cross' POV----

Geno smirked, stepping slowly towards me, dragging the sword behind him on the stone, making that loud scratching sound ring out and echoed throughout the cavern, making me shudder.

"Nightmare can't save you now sweetheart~" He cooed, confidently taking a few more steps forwards.

I panicked, stumbling back. "G-Geno you don't want to do this! O-Once Nightmares got th-the key w-we can close the chest a-and then destroy the key! Y-You can do whatever you want to it!"

Geno laughed manically, leaping forwards. "You're begging? Ha! I like it. Beg some more."

I backed up more, glancing behind me quickly to try and catch sight of the tunnel that Nightmare had gone down.

Geno must have realised what I was thinking of and suddenly lunged forwards, making me yelp and dive to the side, landing awkwardly on the uneven rocky floor.

"Oh I don't think so Cross." He growled, blocking off the entrance to the tunnel. "You're not running to your little boyfriend this time. You've hidden behind him this whole time, letting him do everything, take all the blows. But you can't do that now. Can you?"

"I-I haven't hidden behind him!" I hissed, backing up more, the sharp rocks digging into my palms, making them sting and bleed.

Geno laughed. "Very funny. You've done nothing Cross. Nothing. Nightmare's done everything. You're nothing without him."

I shook my head, quickly. "Y-You're wrong!"

He laughed, stepping closer to me, his dust covered sword aimed at my chest. "You know I'm not, Cross. And that's what scares you. You've been abandoned and rejected all of your life and it's going to happen again. You can scream all you want. But Nightmare won't come for you."

I froze, tensing up as I felt my spine dig into smooth rock. I'd backed up into the pedestal, and now Geno had me trapped.

"Go on Cross~" He taunted. "Scream for help. Scream for him. He won't come."

I whimpered, inhaling sharply before letting out a scream for help, trying to direct my voice towards Nightmare's tunnel as well as I could.

No sooner than I'd done that, the cavern started to shake and a glass shattering screech ripped through the cavern, making the whole place shake.

The force nearly made Geno fall over, but he managed to stay up by stabbing his sword into the ground, stabilising him.

I however, was thrown backwards slightly, my head being slammed into the hard rock of the pedestal.

Instantly my vision was filled with stars, my head pounding.

As soon as Geno had focused his surroundings he advanced towards me, his sword held above his head, ready to stab me. Ready to end my life.

"NIGHTMARE!!!" I screamed desperately, begging in my mind that he'd hear me.

"Still calling out? Pathetic."

I froze in absolute fear as Geno raised the sword further above his head before swinging it down, slashing it down to split through my skull and the rest of my body.

I squeezed my eyes shut tightly, whimpering. Please just let it be quick.

A muffled shout echoed through the cavern, clearly not coming from Geno or me, but I was oblivious, waiting to feel the crunch of the blade shattering my skull.
