Ink's POV

The next day.. day eleven, I think? Wait, why was I counting the days I'd been here? Ah, I don't think that matters. What matters is that Error and I were currently sat in Nightmare's office together, and Nightmare was writing about something. Had he forgotten about us?

"Hey, fucker? Tell him what we're doing since you never told him."

"Wait, I'm signing stuff."

So we waited.. and waited.. and waited..

"This is so boring we've been sat here for like an hour!"

"It's been five minutes."

"Not five, three."

"An hour~!"

"I swear to God.. I regret being a Destroyer now."

"Why?"

"Error will be teaching you how to destroy AUs today."

"Wh-what?!"

Destroying.. AUs?! That completely goes against everything I've worked so hard for! Why is he forcing me to learn about that?!

"No! I don't want to, I decline!"

"Great! I'm going back to sleep!"

"You have to learn."

"Why?! I don't wanna learn!"

"Don't you want to help Error?"

Error? What? Oh, I guess if I know how to destroy AUs I could take over his job every now and then. I did want to help him.. but..

"I do.."

"Then you'll learn."

"But I-"

"No buts, you will learn. You've slacked off enough recently."

"It'll take a while to destroy it since, well, I'm basically giving him a tutorial. What do we do if Dream or Blue attack us, do we fight or flee?"

"Spare them, you don't need to fight them at the moment. However, if you do need to fight then you have permission to."

"Right. Any specific AU I'll be taking him to or...?"

"Any you want, but preferably one of the smaller ones. I don't want you gone for too long, you may kill him."

"..."

"Sure, let's go then."

Error grabbed my sleeve and dragged me up and through a portal, I didn't attempt to move away. I knew it would be futile, and that Nightmare would just observe him teaching me if I tried anything like this, how annoying. ..Outertale? Why had he taken us to Outertale?

"Why're we in Outertale? Don't you.. you know.. not want to destroy this place?"

"I have my specific timeline that I enjoy, this is one of the other timelines. So, in simple terms, nah."

"Oh, ok."

"I don't give two fucks if you don't want to do this, you should be feeling lucky that I even agreed to this."

"Why did you agree to it?"

"Wanted to piss you off. Anyway, you know how to bring up source codes right?"

"Yeah.."

I flicked my wrist as the source code of the AU appeared in front of me. Neat files held all sorts of character info, background info, setting info, etc etc.. all of it was going to go to waste.
