Undertale: Soul String (Multiship) [DISCONTINUED!]

Chapter 10: A Number On Me

'Where am I?'

A black boned skeleton floated in the middle of an ocean of black, bubbles floating up all around him, his breath steady, his eyes fluttering open slowly.

'Am I dead?'

He began to try to regain his balance, wanting to see the surroundings of his new afterlife, failing and flailing, but at last finally regaining his balance, floating but sinking yet with his posture up, it was then did he only realize that everything felt cold and wet, and every time he breathed out, bubbles form and fly up, yet he didn't feel like he was drowning, it felt calm, like a dream.

'Am I dreaming? Is this a lucid dream?'

He realized it, he was in fact dreaming, and now that he realized it, he was lucid dreaming, true to fact that he loved the calmness of the ocean and drowning, but a sudden glance of memory turned everything upside down, killing his calm dream, a glance of memory, a dark memory of his death, making his soul panic a bit.

Bad move.

The dream suddenly shifted, and water suddenly flew in his lungs, making the said skeleton choke and glitch, turning the once lucid dream into a lucid nightmare.

The water disappeared, no, more like disintegrated from existence, making him fall to the floor of the black void like dream, then everything turned black and white, gray trees formed, the black sky emerged, and white sand stood under him, a treeless circle forming around him, and the sudden darkness created faces, faces of disgust, laughter, fear, sorrow, all emotions he could think of.

His fears got the best of him, when under him felt wet, the glitched skeleton looked down to see that the sand under him turned to ink, and that was when he suddenly stood up, wanting to run away and wake up.

Something was felt slithering around his leg, slowly looking down in fear, his eyes widen to see arms gripping on him, his haphephobia reacting, his breath hitched, and tears brimmed in the end of his eyes.

Laughter was heard all around him, and voices screamed at him, insulting him, and laughing at him.

He needed to think, think of something, calm down, concentrate on waking up, to make this nightmare end.

But to his lost, mirrors form around him, causing him to try and close his eye sockets to avoid mirrors, he remembered Nightmare saying something about not looking in mirrors in lucid dreams nor nightmares.

But time got the best of him, at last Error opened his eyes to be face to face with a giant mirror.

Figures formed in the mirrors, “Ew! Such a disgusting glitch! Do we even know him?!!”, Geno's figure looked at him with disgust, “Ya, I agree, dis glitch deserve ta die bro”, Fresh's figure emerged from Geno's, “How am I even friends with you? Pathetic. You're just a negativity stash, agreed gang?”, his team appeared in front of him, looking at him with pure disgust, when the sudden figures disappear, Error looked closer, tears brimming.

A new figure appeared, he knew who it was clearly.

Ink.

His crush.

Looking at him with disgust.

“I hate you. It's never going to work. You're not worth it”

Just when the glitchy skeleton touched the mirror, it seems as if he dug his own grave, the mirror showed a reflection of him, hanging from a noose of his strings, but smiling and bloody, then the demon looked at Error in his eyes, glitches all over the eyes, and tilting his head to his side, the demon let out a shriek.
