Nightmare sat in the chair next to Dreams bed, lost in thought. Questions with no answers flood his mind as he tries to find a reason to why this is happening. Could it possibly be his fault?
He was brought out of his thoughts when he heard a portal open, Error stepping through it, groaning a bit.

“The hell happened? You look like you ran a marathon…” Nightmare asked, looking at him.

“The little shit got away.” Error said, his voice glitching a bit.

“Geez, how did he get away? Foolishly let your guard down?”

“He kicked me in the goddamn nuts Nightmare!”

“Didn't think you had any since you always act like a little pussy most of the time.”

“NiGhtM@r3 I $w3@r !F y0u d0nT $HuT uP!!!”

Nightmare only chuckles a bit before looking back at Dream. “Do you think he would know what’s wrong with Dream…?” He asks, continuing to look at Dreams pale face.

“He's your brother...shouldn't you know what's wrong?”

“I don't hang out around him Error, me being his brother doesn't mean I automatically know what's wrong with him… Ink might know things I don't about him…”

“So what do you want me to do… find him for you?”

“No Error I want you to sit on your ass in your stupid void and pout about losing your ‘entertainment’. Of course, I want you to find him… When you do bring him here.”

“He’ll be hiding.”

“It’s called looking dumbass. Go now… I don't want any more time to be wasted… I'll send Dust and Horror to help you when they get back…”

Error simply rolls his eyes before opening a portal. “Your going soft Nightmare…”

Nightmare looks at him, seriousness in his eyes. “I can say the same for you Error.”

“Excuse me?”

“You said you wanted to kill Ink, did you not? And now you say you want to ‘torture’ him and that he's your entertainment.”

“I'm allowed to change my mind.”

“Why exactly?”

Error stays silent. Nightmare looks at him, waiting for an answer, then realizing that he won't get one. “You care about him...don't you…”

Error tenses up, he starts glitching as errors signs cover his body. “I don't care about him...not in the slightest...and, I doubt he cares about me...he's a soulless ass hole, he cant feel… I want to keep him alive so I have something to do when I'm in the void… And why the hell are talking to me about this… you're doing the same thing. You said you wanted Dream eliminated.”

“I did, didn't I.” Nightmare says placing his hand on top of Dreams, feeling how cold he is. “But Error, eliminate doesn't just mean ‘kill’. It simply means to get rid of something… Dream was in the way of my plans… For that, he needed to be eliminated. I never said I was going to kill him.”

Error spins around and looks at Nightmare to say something, but seeing the expression on his face, made him change his mind. Error knew Nightmare was partly lying, he knew Nightmare did want Dream dead at first, but seeing Nightmare in the state he's in, he won't say anything. Instead, Error just turned back around and left through the portal without saying another word. Leaving Nightmare with the still unconscious Dream.
Nightmare lets out a sigh taking Dreams hand. He tries his best to hold back tears, threatening to spill. He just wants Dream to be ok. That's all he wants. He sits there for a while before finally standing up to leave the room. He walks to the door, opening it to make his exit. He then he's a soft voice behind him, mumbling. He looks behind him at Dream. Is he hearing things?
