By the end of the film, as cringy, as it was, the tall skele had fallen asleep, successfully trapping Nightmare on the couch. As evil as the rest of us are, we left him there while going to our rooms to sleep but not before getting a quick snap of it on our phones 'it was too cute not to'.

The next morning, we all woke up to an angry blushing Nightmare and a very confused Error 'it was totally worth it'. It was during breakfast that morning that Error brought up the fact that he would have to go out to destroy soon again. We all decided to help him do so.

(Here we go again)

(Error POV)

I was happy, relieved even, that the gang was willing to help me this run. Ink had gone on a frenzy over the last two months creating AUs. My soul was aching by the end of it and I needed to destroy a lot more the usual to ensure safety over the Multiverse.

We started with the oldest copies, most of them generated from the original, in the end, we destroyed 50 forgotten copies. No Ink as of yet, same as usual. Then we got to some of the newer copies. Nightmare took advantage of the fear while we destroyed the AUs making him stronger and more unstable. It was funny watching him bounce around like a child on a sugar high, turns out he can't contain as much fear and hatred in his magic as he thought.

It wasn't until we were destroying all the copies Ink made during my months off, usually, the Ink blob would have shown himself by now. The others just thought we were lucky and continued 'sweeping' the AU, I couldn't stop looking over my shoulder thinking I was being watched.

After we destroyed enough AUs to fix the balance I wanted to head back to the castle but while I quickly checked by Info board something caught my attention one of the AUs was glitching T***Tale I couldn't believe I missed it.

"Hey guys, we're going to have to make one last stop" I opened um the coordinates and made a portal to it.

The others nodded, ok with making one more run and went through, I didn't see the glitches change from T***Tale to TrapTale.

(Nightmares POV)

When we entered the portal, we all had to dodge a blur of red and purple? Taking a moment to look to where they are flying from, I thought I would find a whole group attacking but I only turned to find Ink, alone. Taking advantage that his back was turned to me I lunged at him only for his to face me and cover me with purple paint with the flick of his mini brush.

"What the fuck is this, you call this an attack, just hurry up and use your red paint and fight properly" I screeched ignoring the paint covering my tentacles and limbs, he kept dodging our attacks and splashing us with purple paint. Eventually, we were all covered in it even Error who immediately freaked out trying to pry the sticky substance off.

Error. "GeT It OfF, gET iT OfF"

This unnerved us, we went to take it off as well but Ink snapped his fingers, I felt an invisible force throw me down and I could see the paint morphing into chains.

"What the hell is this you squid!" Ink only grinned back and walked towards Error who was on the edge of a panic attack.

Ink. "I know your little secret Error, now everyone else will know too" he snapped his fingers again, summoning his giant brush, using it to tear a hole into the Star Sanses headquarters where everyone could see my brother and the council waiting. "It's time to show you all the truth of the Destroyer and his merry gang of rouges"

(Dreams POV – Same time - Headquarters)

It was time and I could feel the fear, spreading and the AUs dying, but Ink said not yet. It was worrying me, he would never let this many AUs down, he still refused to tell anyone what the plan is. Right now, Ink's location was unknown, he went off this morning saying he would come to get us when it was time. But we're still waiting.

Suddenly I felt the destruction stop, 'maybe Ink stopped Error alone?' my train of thought stopped when Ink emerged through a portal

Ink. "It's time to show you all the truth of the Destroyer and his merry gang of rouges" he chanted. We all entered the portal into an empty AU? I went to question him but my eyes landed on my brother Nightmare and his gang, all chained to the ground and the Destroyer in a similar fate, but hyperventilating and glitching all over. 'What did you do Ink' I thought to myself hiding a frown 'Ink must have a good reason behind this right?'.

He was beginning to doubt the Creators behavior.

Ink. "It's time to end the suffering, the destruction, the destroyer. No longer will we have to live in fear" he announced standing next to said Destroyer "I can end the lesser evils as well; all I have to do is get rid of this glitch." He continued kicking Error a clear snapping could be heard.

I watched in horror as my brother and his gang doubled over in their bindings right as the snap was heard, the destroyer himself was screaming, the only thing I felt I could do was look away as Ink continued to hurt them.

The screams only got louder, Error begging for mercy and the others screaming for Ink to stop, no one else would move to stop him. My heart stopped with the screams.

Ink. "Aww, he passed out, oh well funs over time to die~"

When I turned around in horror, my gut dropping at Inks words, I could see Error knocked out along with the gang, Nightmare on the verge of passing out as well. Ink had his brush help high ready to take the final blow, no one moving to stop him. They were either cheering him on, looking away or throwing up form the sight.

Error was mangled in the worst way possible in a way I thought he would have dusted from. The ground was covered in blood and marrow, his bones snapped completely, only holding on by threads of magic, some bones could be seen torn through his shirt.

I couldn't comprehend the sight and before my mind caught up my body reacted, before I knew it was standing between the Creator...and Destroyer. I realized this had gone too far.

"You've gone too far Ink, this has to stop" I narrowed my eyes and looked up at him only to shiver in fear, Inks face was blank but his eyes were blood red and in the shape of a cross and a triangle. I was shaking, rattling could be heard clearly through the air, the council member silently watching in confusion.

"Please Ink." My voice wavered "This has to stop"
