Shattered Dream

What now ?

" Uhm...What's going on ? " , Cross asked, trying to clear his own confusion.

" I thought that I said to not question it. " , the negtive guardian replied.

" I didn't even-" , the monochromatic skeleton started.

" He asked you to not question it. " , Dream interrupted him.

This went on for a bit, so eventually, everyone else stopped listening.

" Why didn't you free me yet ?! I deserve to be free, you should be the ones chained up ! I demand you to chain yourself up ! " , the Creator yelled at everyone, making them stare at him in disbelief.

" AnD...wHy wOulD wE do tHaT ? " , Error asked, once again questioning his opposite.

" Why ? Because you're my friend ! And friends help each other ! " , the Artist exclaimed.

" So...You expect us to free our main enemy, who's surely going to attack us then, and to chain ourselves up, because YOU of all people demanded it ? " , the negative guardian decided to interfere.

" Yes. " , by now Cross and Dream stopped arguing, and went to question everyones facial expressions. Nightmare looked like he didn't care, Blue was still crying, even if it was unsure if those were tears of supressed laughter, and Error was simply giving up on society.

" Uhm...What's going on ? " , surely, this wasn't what Cross expected to happen while patrolling around the castle, but what was he supposed to do ? Ignore them ? How was he supposed to ignore their worst enemies, especially if only one of them was acting somehow normal ?

" They said that they're happy to free me. Oh, and they apoligized for being so rude, which you should do, too. " , sometimes, the Creator acted like a spoiled child, expecting to get everything he wanted. While Fate might be cruel, they were even worse at raising a child.

" WhA-No !... DrEaM, hOw dO yOu mAnAgE to lIvE wItH tHiS ?! "

" Well, uh..., you get used to it ? " , said guardian answered, since he wasn't sure what to say.

" Yeah...but he's still annoying at times..." , Blue added, wiping away his tears.

" TRAITORS ! ALL OF YOU ! " , the Creator was once again trying to get out of his blue chains, and this time, he succeeded, since Error wasn't paying attention. Finally free, the Ink decided to start attacking, he was not a coward ! Of course, the others noticed, so they went to attack the soulless being themselves.

" WHY ARE YOU ATTACKING ME ?! I DID NOTHING WRONG ! SURRENDER TO ME, NOW ! THEN, AND ONLY THEN, I PROMISE YOU A QUICK DEATH ! " , while he was busy yelling, Nightmare managed to position himself behind the leader of the Star Sanses, ready to strike.

" Wait ! " , Dream yelled, suprising his brother. " Can we...imprison him or something ? He's still my friend..." , even if the little guardian didn't want to, he still cared.

" Fine. It's your desicion, anyways. " , the Embodyment of Negativity gave in, signaling Error to chain their victim up once again.

Eventually, they locked him within a cell, not without great protest, so they were fially able to somewhat relax at the living room of Nightmare's castle.

" So... What now ? "
