🎑✖A Day in the Life of a Nightmare✖🎑 (dark Deception AU)

Ultimatum

6/23/15- It's 6 in the morning

Lately, I've been having flashbacks of Phillip dying. I am there but not strong enough to save him. I always see Malak who says the same thing.

Was it really worth it Crypt?

I got outta bed and crept into the ballroom. I'll just go to the sewers.

The ducks that lived in the sewers were adorable. They had little cones on their heads and robotic legs. And if you were an intruder they would have a claw that would pop out of their stomachs that could damage you real bad. I know. Adorable. 

I named one of them Ducky. Not a good name, I agree. But I've know Ducky for almost 3 years. After venturing the sewers with Phillip and Geoffrey three years ago, we discovered him swimming about. Then he saw us. He realized I was the daughter of Beirce and saw Phillip who had saved him during his dark deception.

I saw Ducky swimming freely. I walked to him and picked up the little duckling. 

" Hi Ducky. I can't sleep."

"Crypt no sleep. Why?"

"Nightmares."

"Nightmare bad."

"Yeah, tell me about it."

"You come play with Ducky? Ducky lonely since ring altar incident."

"We can play later. Gotta go back to sleep, then check the ring altar. Bye Ducky"

" Bye-bye friend Crypt."

I walked off outta the sewer portal and went back to my room in the ballroom. Climbed onto my bed and slept.

Crypt.. Your're the solution.

Huh?

Its me. Don't you remember your uncle? Agatha's father. Does that help?

 Oh. Malak. So you really are talking to me through my dreams.

Yes.

What do you want.

To fight you.

No. I have to train. But you can train me. You won't be lonely in your book.

Ugh. Another dream. Except this one felt real. I got outta bed and took a shower. Put my blue sweater on with my black sweatpants and took my two gray wristbands I always wore on each hand. Put my hair in a ponytail and walked outta my room. I saw Agatha wide awake. She was shaking. She was also fidgeting. 

" No..not my fingers..they're gonna cut off my fingernails."

"Agatha. Your're spiraling. I was just a joke." I said to Agatha.

She took the biggest sigh of relief.

She walked off to her room. She came out two minutes later wearing black overalls with a white shirt under. She also had on black sandals too.

" Crypt, lets go see Geoffrey and Phillip." Agatha said.

"I can't. I gotta go somewhere."

" Ok, bye then." She jumped into the portal

I walked to the ring altar and put my hand on it. It lit up slowly.

When I opened my eyes I was in the book. Malak's book. He was sitting in one of his beanbag chairs drinking some tea. So the dream was real

Let's train then,Malak.
