The dust covered arena started to disappear. Everyone was still.

"Whoa!" The chirp of a small girl was heard. "Look at us! Look at dad!" The girl cheered. Jason was covered in fire serving as a shield. He was slowly getting up from the debreeze. Y/N was lying down next to a huge pink crystallize rose. Then Nightmare, well he's another story.

I'm just a coward who can't face the truth.

Four thick, black tentacles curled around him and his brother. Slowly placing his brother down.

"Now you've decided to show your true self?" Nightmare slowly got up. His tentacles twitched with impatience. Nightmare slowly turned around. With his right hand he gripped his left wrist and proceeded to move his wrist in a circular motion.

"My true self?" Nightmare lowered his hands. He proceeded to smile. Nightmare laughed lightly. I'm leaving Dream to you two. Nightmare looked up. His gaze cold. So familiar. "We've only scratched the surface."

I hope you know what you're doing. Y/N thought while she groaned getting up. She was struck on her side but it wasn't a big wound. There was a vine wrapped around he stomach and a pink flower on the wound. The vines were slowly healing the wound. "Mom." It was Midnight.

"Hello." Y/N leaned onto the Glass shield. Using it to hold herself up. "Missed me?"

"Mommy!" Shouted Jupiter, Phoenix following behind. 

"Hi there sweety." Y/N continued to cough out thin black substance, but she didn't take note of it. "I'll get you four home safely." Y/N legs shook a little. 

"Mom..." Comet followed her siblings. "Wha-"

"You guys lied to us." Muttered Midnight. She stood away from her siblings looking at her father. 

"N-no that's not wh-" Y/N trailed off as she became exhausted. Slowly falling to the ground. Out of panic the three children pounded on the shield crying out to their mother. Midnight meanwhile was having an internal conflict. Comet swiftly turned around  to her sister.

"Midnight!" She started to shake her. "Respond!" Comet's eyes became watery. Giving up she went up to the shield, facing the direction of their father. "Dad! Dad! Help mom!"

Nightmare's gaze crossed over to them. For once he didn't worry about his lover. Nightmare wanted to settle this. 

"Comet don't mind dad...right now we need get mom out of here." said Midnight gripping onto her shoulder. Comet looked over to her sister. 

"Now you respond." said Comet roughly pulling her shoulder away. Midnight's excuse because she was still processing it, she's just mad about the whole situation. Everyone knew that, especially Nightmare, he is going to take that as an advantage. 

Comet and Midnight made their way to their mother. With their siblings they continued to pound on the shield. "Mom!" they cried out to her.

Jason quickly proceeded to get to Dream. Getting near the still body he touched him and covered him with his fury fire. Oh god. 

Nightclaw cocked his head to the side. "Tell me Nightmare, are you actually going to try?" Nightmare grinned. "You want to have a fair fight I'm amusing?" Nightmare's smile became wider. To the point that there was goo oozing out his eyes.

"Absolutely not."

Nightmare teleported near his throne where Nightclaw was waiting. Nightclaw had shape-shifted into a smaller version of himself. With an actual body, tall, muscular. "Fighting for the throne I see?" Nightmare proceeded to launch three of the four tentacles. Then Nightclaw also sprouted four. Charging them all to him. The three tentacles coiled around three while the last one continued. Using the unoccupied one Nightmare used it to push himself up, so that the tentacle missed. Quickly he placed himself down, Nightclaw retreated his little friends from the attack.
