Cross POV
I awake to a small hut. It's actually well made. Looking around I see the splashes of colors that resemble flowers. Looking out of the hut I can see a larger hut that is completely black.All the plants had died around it. Slowly rising to my feet I walk out of the hut. Something caught my eye. A cage made from hardened wood and thorns containing a rather mad Error.
His hands where bound together as his knees where tied together. I had to hold back a giggle due to how he looked like a wet cat. A stick was tied around his mouth. No telling why, probably tried to bite who ever caught him.
Wait. I'm here. Have I been caught as well? But im not tied up or anything. The vines that was used as a door for the black hut moved as a black gooy skeleton walked out.
He had skinned a large panther to make a robe out of. The tail dragged the ground. The head was used as a hood. He looked over at me his eye glowed. He walked towards me. I stood froze like a deer in the headlights.
He suddenly buried his face into thr crook of my neck taking in my scent. My face heated up as I slightly stepped away. He growled a bit before walking away towards Error.
Error growled loudly and viciously before leaping out towards the odd skeleton. He didn't even flinch. I walked towards the two as Error glanced towards me.
It was almost like a since of betrayal was in his eye. Sighing I gently poked the odd skeleton. "He is my friend, can you let him go?" My voice was gentle but shaky.
The odd skeleton grunted before a black tentacle opened the gate and drag out a furious Error. I kneel down to Error gently taking the stick out of his mouth. It was nearly broken in half.
"Are you ok?" I asked. "I AM GOING TO KI-" his sentence was cut short as a tentacle wrapped around his mouth. "..That is no way to talk to a surpior...." Error viciously bit at the tentacle.
My eyes are locked on the odd skeleton. His voice was soothing, cold, and filled with authority. Who was he? Where did he come from? "Im Nightmare. " Well at least he read some part of my mind. But Nightmare does seem fimiliar. Error was frozen.
"Error, what's wrong?" The tentacle moved away and untied him. He was at a lose of words. I look at Nightmare. He had a strange presence. Made the air chill all around him.
I snapped out of my trance and looked at Error. I quickly pick him up and take him to the hut I was in. He seemed seemed to be in some sort of shock. It took him a few minutes to realize where he was. He looked around taking note that nightmare wasnt near.
".....it cant be..."
