Lost Cause: Growing up

Chapter 14

Error went to school that day with the thoughts of everything good that could happen. No one had seen him this happy in for so long it was was good that he was happy. "Come on Error, we're gonna be late for class." Kiki was dragging Error across the halls to Art clutching his sketchbook tightly with the other arm. Error had a small crush on Kiki, he wouldn't ever admit he did though. This was Error after all. Error rolled his eyes. Where there's art there's Kiki, he was a art fanatic.

Okay, Error was an art fanatic too but he's not as bad as Kiki.

Classic had separated from the two having his class being in the opposite direction. He had P.E. most Sans' fear. Classic did... dislike (the nice way of putting it) Physical Education. He was upset seeing as he didn't have a single class with Error or Kiki unless lunch counted. He huffed, he was quick to change clothes. He didn't have any friends in this period so he sat in the bleachers during the entire period and texts his friends. It was only when the teacher yelled at him to get up that he spoke if he spoke at all during that period. He hurried to get out and sighed and sat down on the bleachers.

Ruru's girlfriend had this period with him. It put him on high alert since she could be competitive. So he didn't risk sleeping in this period.

Kiki sat down just as the bell rang. He noticed Error adjusting his bow. Kiki never understood why Error never picked between boy clothes and girl clothes. He never questioned it though
This was Error. He looked over as Error smoothed his dress out. "Why now do you choose where a dress, it's been a while?" Kiki asked. Error stopped wearing dresses in the 3rd grade because of Ruru. Kiki knew that Error told him. Kiki watched Errors movements which showed hesitant's. He took a shaky breath, Kiki had regret asking. "I, um, it's new so I asked my dad to buy it since it looked good on me." Error answered embarrassed. He had yellow dust crawling his cheeks. He pulled his sketchbook out and started drawing. Their teacher had already told them that they were allowed to do what they wanted want as long as it had something to do with art.

Ruru sat across the room in the back. He glared at Error. Why did this lowlife get everything he wanted? It's not like he deserved it. He watched Error drawing intently. Why couldn't Ruru's beloved Kiki teach him to draw? He couldn't draw, he wanted art because Kiki was in here. Ruru watched Kiki lean over to Error and pointing something out. Error smiled and nodded. Why was Error so nice? He was so stupid sometimes. No one should be that nice, actually, no one could possibly be that nice. Kiki leaned over to Error who looked up at Ruru. He clutched his sketchbook close to him. Ruru noticed and looked away. He scoffed. He pretended to look through his backpack. He knew Errors weakness though, now how was he going to get that sketchbook?

Error heard the bell ring. He hurried to put his stuff up. The way Ruru looked at him said a lot of bad things were going to happen. He carefully put his bag over his shoulders and and followed Kiki out of the classroom. "Hey, Error~" Ruru sang his name behind him. Error groaned. Why did it have to be now? It was too early in the day for this. "What?" Error asked. It did come out harsh since he was too tired to say anything harsh or insulting. Ruru smiled brightly wrapping his arm around Errors neck. Error quickly took Rurus arm off him and walk over to the other side of Kiki. "Um, what do you want?" Kiki asked blocking Error from his reach. Why was Ruru, of all people, trying to be nice? "I wanted to know why you were hiding this from me." Ruru said smirking. He waved Error's sketchbook around. Error immediately went in high alert and tried to take it back. "That's mine." He said and reached for it as Ruru held it up in the air. Error, didn't use his strings knowing Ruru he'd use Errors strings to his advantage. They both had the same magic. "Ruru, give it back its not yours." Kiki said. He was short and so it was harder for him to reach. Ruru noticed his friends watching on the sidelines and told them to help. They, of course, did as told. Error was torn away as Ruru did the lowest thing he could have ever done.

He ripped the pages out of the book one by one.

Error watched in horror as tears spilled from his eye sockets. His drawings that he worked so hard on were gone. For once he was pissed beyond compare. Error never got mad. Yes, he got frustrated, stressed, annoyed, upset, and aggravated but never mad. He pulled his arm out of Horror's hold and punched Ruru straight in the face. He immediately regretted it  he didn't like hurting humans and monsters alike. He wasn't in control of what he was doing, and before he knew what was going on Ruru, Horror, and Dust beat Error to the point he had blood come from his mouth. Kiki sat on the side line as PJ held him back forcing him to watch. Error wasn't going to be helped. Kids and teachers alike were both in class. They wouldn't hear the fighting going on outside in the hallways. Error felt someone kick his scar on his head and his vision went black. The last thing he saw was Kiki still fighting to get out of PJs hold.

Error woke up but his eye sockets were covered. His head was pounding and it hurt to think. His memory was hazy. He remembered coming out of the Art room and everything going black. He doubted he tripped and his body being in this much pain. "Come on Error, you got to wake up." He heard Ink. Or was it Kiki? They sounded the same so he couldn't tell the difference. He tried to speak but he couldn't move his mouth. He couldn't even move any part of his body. He was breathing so he was alive but he couldn't move.

'Mom?'

'I'll... protect... you...'

Error went back to sleep, there was no point trying to stay up.

_________

That man, that hateful man hurt both him and his little brother. Error hoped that someone would find them. He didn't care who. He couldn't call for help though, that evil man would hurt them.

"Error, my stomach hurts."

Error looked over at his brother who was leaned up against the wall crying. They were in a dog cage (like the one you keep big dogs in, here's a picture).

(Don't pay attention to the dog)

Error hugged his brother tightly. They hadn't been fed in days. They were starving. "Error, I'm hungry." Fresh said his voice quite. That man heard everything, they had to be quite. "I know, I know, we're going to be okay though, it's okay, I promise." He stated. Error heard someone laugh outside their cage. That evil man held a small bowl. It had food in it.

"I bet you're hungry."

____________

Errors line went dead. Ink and Blueberry were pulled out of the room. They had been trying to bring him back for over thirty seconds and eventually he came back with a big gasp for air. He didn't need it but it helped. He came to and looked around. His eyes were no longer covered but his head still was. He was pressed back against the pillows. "Kid, calm down, lay back down." A nurse said. Error laid down but still frantically looked every which way for his parents. "Where's my mom and dad?" He asked. A nurse went to go get his parents who were quick to see their son. They had tears in their eyes. "Baby, oh my gosh we thought we lost you!" Ink said and kissed his face a bunch of times. Blueberry hugged him tightly. "We're so glad you're okay, everyone's going to be so happy you're okay!" His dad said. Error couldn't help but smiled and hug them both.

"Error?"

Ruru stood in the doorway holding his destroyed sketchbook with a sorrow filled look.
