I Will Protect You

Chapter 14: What's In The Basement?

Nightmare's P.O.V

He showed him the upstairs and then stopped once he reached the end of the floor.

"Alright, who do you want?" The man selling people asked.

"I do have one question though, what's in the basement?" The guy in the hoodie asked.

"Oh! There is someone down there, but he is very expensive."

"Why?"

"Let's just say that he is very well known and loved all around."

Crap, does he have Dream? Bastard better not.

"Can I at least see him?"

"I suppose, come on." They began making their way down the stairs and to a door.
Out of all the rooms, this one was the most secure.
The man pulled out a key and began opening it.

"He is passed out right now." I followed them down those stairs and looked around.
The lights were off, which made the room pitch black. I couldn't see a thing.

They turned the lights on and I looked around.
There were no windows, no beds. The room was very empty.
Except for one corner.

There was a wall, on it were all kinds of torture devices hanging.
The floor and walls were splattered on blood.

There was a table you could strap someone to, and on that table was Dream.
I could barely recognize him anymore.

He was covered in burns, cuts, and bruises.
The fucking bastard hurt him.

I'm not going to get Fresh yet, I can't wait. He could be sold by then and I wouldn't be able to find him then.
I need act.

It's now or never.

I'll bring you home, Dream.
