"Nightmare! Error!" I barely caught a glimpse, another sans, though this one had a brown scarf, tattoos on his bones, a blue jacket wrapped around his waist, a huge paint brush that he was holding, different colored eyes and a smudge of black paint. This sans was looking at Error. Who had a smug expression. "Release them!" 

"YoOu'RrE nOo FunnN." Error said quietly before disappearing the blue strings. 

"Brother! Release that human at once!" This sans sounded similar to Blue. Nightmare's expression became disappointed. He looked back. The other sans that was there was also similar to blue. He wore a thin golden crown, golden covered boots, a golden colored cape, a teal colored belt with a golden plaque reading, 'DS', golden gloves, black pants, and a tan robe. Nightmare kept the dead expression as he eyed the smaller sans from a far. He tilted his head forward. His eye narrowed slightly. "Nightmare!" The sans paused and summoned a bow. He pulled the string back as an arrow appeared. "Release her!" Nightmare scoffed and cut his gaze. 

The tentacles loosened letting me go. I fell with a thud. I gasp taking in big chunks of air. I kept gasping until Frisk ran to my aid. "What the hell is your problem!" Frisk yelled to the tar covered skeleton. The skeleton kissed his teeth. 

"Nightmare, you should leave." stated the skeleton from earlier. Nightmare put his hands in his pockets and walked away. "That includes the other two." Nightmare rolled his eye. 

"Error, get Cross, I don't want to deal with him." He looked at the other skeleton. He settled a gaze before forming into a puddle and disappearing. Error stood there looking at where the puddle used to be. He looked up at the sans with the paint brush. They looked at each other, before he sighed and raised his hand. A small group of blue string appeared over the large group of the different versions. The strings coiled down as the reappeared with a skeleton that seemed to be wearing black and white clothes. Error pulled down as the skeleton was thrown into a hole. Error lowered his and and looked at him again and then disappeared.

Soon as they left, the tension quickly fell. Frisk knelt down and helped me up. "Here let's get you home." They looked back at the two entities. "Hey Ink! Dream! Can you help me out for a second?" They called to them. They looked over.

They approached simultaneously. Realizing there was another human here they both gave a confused expression. "Who? What is another human doing here?" Ink asked. 

"I fell in." I say bluntly. They both gave understanding expression. "Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your, um, get together."

The skeleton shook his head. "It's alright. Wasn't your fault, besides those two can get a little out of control. Mainly the rejected tar puddle. No offense, Dream."

The smaller skeleton sighed giving a defeated expression, "None taken."

He looked over at me again. "What's your name?" he asks. 

"Uh, Y/N." I say quietly. 

"Names Ink." He pointed to the other version of himself. "That's Dream."

Dream gave a small wave. "I'm sorry about my brother he can be quite brash sometimes." He's your brother. I gave a slight surprised expression before giving a small smile.

"It's quite alright, someone must've woken on the wrong side of the bed." I say trying to break the ice. 

"He doesn't sleep." said Ink not understanding the slight comedic relief I tried to bring. Dream smiled.

"I guess he wakes up on the wrong side frequently." added Dream, understanding what I was trying to bring. He laughs quietly. "Any who did you need something Frisk?" asked Dream.

Frisk jumped slightly. "Ah, yeah almost forgot. I just wanted to ask if it's possible if one of you can take Y/N home." Ink immediately flicked his brush.

"I'd be my pleasure to give this human a portal way back to where she belongs!" he said trying to be enthusiastic. He gave a nervous smile knowing that his attempt failed. Dream shook his head in disappoint. "Okay, okay, we're leaving." He said monotone. He made a small hole on the white floor. Slowly it grew bigger revealing the yard from Frisk's home. He stepped into it and held out is hand for me to grab. I gently grabbed it. I looked back to say thanks and bye to Frisk before being pulled back by Ink. The portal quickly closed before I could even speak. I balanced myself from the rocky footing.

"Thanks for bring me back home." I say. "I've had a crazy day today." I say touching my forehead, tired. "Thanks again." I say again before turning around ready to leave. As I take a step forward I felt the boney fingers touching my wrist. I looked at Ink. He was giving me a stern look. "Um, can you let me go."

"Where do you live?" I gave a shocked expression.

"Excuse me?" 

"I said, 'where do you live?'"

"Sorry, but I just met you and I don't know if I'm comfortable telling you." Ink gazes became a little more hostile.

"You don't need to trust me."

I kiss my teeth. "I gotta go." I say tugging. 

"We need to talk in private, it's about-" he pauses and slowly turns my wrist to show my palm. The scar becoming visible. "This." I pause.

"Okay." He let me go. "It's..." As soon as I finished speaking I felt like I was floating, dizzy at the same time. I felt uneasy. He has teleporation, that's nice. I shook my head. "Okay so what did you want to talk about?" I say slightly confused.

"Honestly it's quite incredible that the creators decided that you should be a Nekojin."

Very short :)
