Nightmare: "Error did you just eat the wrapper?"

I didn't answer, what did he mean the wrapper I ate the chocolate not a wrapper...weirdo I just looked at the red stuff and heard Nightmare sigh then drink the stuff...WHAT!! No don't drink the blood!! He must have seen my shock because he just looks at the liquid then at me

Nightmare: "Tomato soup, its food, you eat it"

Ooooohhhh ok so I just shove it all in my mouth again...hmm it tastes yummy

Nightmare POV

I was shocked Error just ate it all the bowl and everything I looked to Cross and he must of thought the same thing I did......

Error has had a horrible life and we need to help him.

(aaaaaaand now)

No one's POV

Nightmare and cross went out to spread fear, the scale was tipping and Nightmare was getting weaker. Horror had arrived shortly before hand and Killer decided to go with Nightmare, this left Dust and Horror to watch over Error. They had been informed for Errors...situation and should only allow him food if they feed it to him...they don't have enough bowls to feed him otherwise.

Errors POV

After some time of being left alone Error ventured out to find his shirt and jacket so he could go home to the Anti-Void. He could here talking coming from the room he was currently trying to sneak past it looked similar to a 'living room' as he had seen watching the AUs. They would probably hurt him anyways; he had gotten lucky with Nightmare and Cross. Error peaked around the corner, there were three of them and they seemed to be watching screens 'can they make one-way portals to' he thought. The bigger one was covered in blood stains and had a huge crack in his skull 'I've had that happen to before' and he knew it was damn painful but didn't understand why this san deserved it. The other one was smaller than the first, yet both still significantly small than himself, this one was covered in what seemed to be monster dust. The last one looked like a papyrus except he was floating and was only a head, scarf and gloves (curious). He tries to sneak past so he didn't gain their attention only to have the papyrus spot him. He ran down the hall not knowing where on earth he was going.

"Shit, shit, shit the papyrus spotted mee!!"

He clashed into something in front of him and tumbled over with whatever it was landing on top of him...the thing was pinning him down 'someone is touching me' he started violently glitching and thrashing around to get whoever it was off of him.

"G-GeT OfF of Me!! StOP toUcHinG Me!! PleAse No mOre!! DOn't HurT Me!!"

The thing let him go? 'Why did it let me go, didn't I want to hurt me?' His eyes started to clear up from the error signs and he could see that the Dusty one and the Papyrus were holding him down but now were looming over him. He looked between the two of them wondering what they were going to do. They looked confused.

Papyrus: "I think he can see me brother"

"Brother?"

They looked to each other, then to Error.

(The dusty one): "You can see him?"

"Yeah? Am I not supposed to?"

Papyrus: "No, no one can see me besides my brother and other ghosts"

'That's awful' Error didn't know what happened but in all the timelines all the Papyruses loved attention along with their counterpart swap Sanses. So, for this Papyrus to be seen is...just...sad. He himself knows what it's like to not be noticed, at least not by the right people.

"Why can't they see you? I can see and hear you just fine."

(The Holey one): "So it turns out you're not as crazy as we all thought Dust, your brother really is here."

The other one said chuckling from behind Error making him jump not realizing he was there at all. So, the dusty one is called Dust...fitting.

Dust: "Of course my brother is here you dick head I told you this, why did you all believe Cross about Chara but not me and my brother? Oh yeah Error this dick bag is Horror and as you probably heard I'm Dust."

Error was still looking between the three not trusting himself to not make them want to hurt him. They obviously saw the freight from his eyes.

Horror: "Hungry?"

Error was shocked 'they want to feed me?'

"Um not really, I've already eaten more from Nightmare then I have in the last...what is it now?...20 years...maybe more."

Horrors eyes went out and he started to violently shake. Error looked to dust but was no help, he too had lost his eye lights and the Papyrus was crying. 'What did I say?...oh they must think I'm a freak'

He looked down in shame.

"I know I'm a freak, I'm sorry..."

Horror: "No, don't be sorry"

Dust: "Why haven't you eaten in so long Error?"

Now Error was confused 'Why do they care why I haven't eaten?'

"Um well...you see...every time I leave the Anti-Void Ink attacks me cause he thinks I only aim to destroy AUs and I used to take Underfell Sanses chocolate but Ink upgraded all their AUs so I cant do that, I have to actually physically go into the AU but then the squid attacks me soo I stopped eating, besides...I don't need food to survive...yes it still hurts not to but I can't die so hunger is something I need to worry about."

He could tell this bothered Horror 'but why?' Then Horror left walking into a room Error, again, didn't know of its purpose, the he turned to Dust for some answers.

Dust: "He comes from an AU where the kid left them underground and over time they ran out of food and starved, it's a sensitive topic for him, his reaction is not your fault though, he is pissed off at Ink for allowing this."

He to walked off to where Horror went but before going into the room he turned to Error and motion for him to come. Error followed, mostly in the fear in what they would do if he didn't. 'This day just became more confusing' all he could think was 'why didn't they hurt me?' and 'why did they react the way they did when they found out I couldn't eat?'. All he could do now was wait to find out...he still needed to find he shirt and jacket after all.
