I watched from the shadows as Geno was singing a little, haunting song... He looked so sad... So hurt... So scared...

I walked to him as he finished, as he sobbed into the red scarf... The scarf that clearly belonged to someone very close to him...

I got to my knees, and pulled him close to my chest. He instantly started blubbering... Saying he didn't want to do it... That he had no choice... He made him do it...

I felt anger and pain worm itself into my chest. I had to find out what happened to my Geno... I wanted my Queen to be safe from all harms... But to do that, I had to know why he was so broken in the first place.

After an hour of him crying, he fell asleep in my arms, to which I brought him to his room. He seemed comfortable there... Safe one could say...

Even then, he was so tense in his sleep... Like at any moment he was expecting to hear something... Feel something and jump into action...

I settled him in gently, his grip on me tightening some as I tried to set him down... He's gotten so use to being in my sinful arms... But he needs a bit alone time too...

After getting him tucked in, I went to my room, to the mirror to be exact.

I easily cut my finger drawing my dark, almost black blood.

I brought my finger to the mirror, easily writing Error's name backwards along with a few other demonic symbols.

Slowly, I spoke the Demon's language, the blood glowing a blue tint before fading into the mirror a misty image of Limbo. Then it cleared to the dark, empty room of Error's apartment.

"Yes?" He growled, his voice naturally dropping its glitch. He always did that when he spoke with me, guess he knew I hated it when he spoke like that.

"What happened to Geno when he was younger?" I hissed, annoyed.

The glitch winced, but I doubt it was at my hiss or expressions, he's seen and heard worse from me.

"When we were five..." He paused, his wince turning into a grimace. "When we were five, some guy kidnapped Geno, Fresh and our three year old brother..." He paused again, looking down. "For nearly three years, they stayed missing... And when they came back... They were different... Fresh use to be lively and wild, filled with excitement, but... He rarely wanted to leave the house, dressed brightly and got into saying some 90's slang... He didn't have any emotions anymore either..." The dark skeleton took a deep breath before going on. "Geno was worse though... He told us that Papyrus was killed... That he died right in front of him at only five years old... He only was able to keep our brother's extremely long scarf..."

A long pause happened between us, I guess so I could process the information and so he could regain some composer.

"After he got back, he was always so tense... On guard... He had very, very quick reflexes, and he often slept with a light on... He even had horrible, horrible scars... Scars that covered most of his body... He even lost an eye in that time frame... He hides it with that white glitch you see him with." Error took a deep breath. "He's just... He's just so different from how he was... Stronger, tougher, more determined, but... Fragile and weak at the same time... Constantly looking over his shoulder, afraid of something... Of everything..."

I looked down now... My Geno... My Queen was hurt long before I could help him... He was hurt long before I could love him... Before I could heal him...

"I'll make him better..." I whispered, but not soft enough. Error heard me.

"What? Reaper, you can't!" He lightly cried, making my head snap up.

"What?" I growled, bearing my teeth lightly.

"He's been to many therapists within his life, even been in homes that could've helped him! But, he refuses to get the help, to have it! He doesn't get attach to anyone! He won't let you help him!"

I gave a cruel growl, my eyes sharpening.

"I will help him. He needs me. He's getting better! He can handle being alone for longer periods! He... He needs to be loved, not treated like some sort of disease! Whoever the fuck had decided to come back from the dead is going to face my wrath this time. No one's going to hurt my Queen again! Do you get me, Fallacy!" I howled as loudly as I could without disturbing My Queen.

The other Demon raised their hands, backing away from their mirror, slowly nodding. He knew better than to tempt my anger as it was. He looked so scared too...

I can't have my Geno, My Queen, My fucking Goddess to hurt anymore. I will make him forget it all... I will give him anything, even the head of the bastard that hurt him.

I will do anything for my Queen.
