Error sprinted through the woods. He huffed as he rushed away from his problems..like he always did. As he ran he could only wonder why he was so scared to face issues that came his way.

He could only guess it was cause he was a coward. cowards ran away in fear, they hid till they couldn't hide anymore. That's what he was...

"ERROR STOP!" He heard Palette scream. The former destroyer paused, he tried to catch his breath..but he couldn't, his breathing was out of control.

Pj was the first to catch up with Error who still had Sprinkle in his arms.

Error was breathing rapidly, his soul pounded against his ribs. He felt weak and dizzy, he couldn't even think straight.

"Still kidnapping people I see?"  Error shot his head towards the familiar voice. Dream stood there with his arrow aimed at him... "Seems I need to lock you up again.."

Error backed up, his arms were shaking. "No..."
Sprinkle sat confused in Error's arms "Uncle Error? You okay?"

What Error saw was dream near him but Palette was the one standing closes to Error. "Mr.Error? Are you alright?"

Pj shoots forward and pulls Palette away as a bone attack shoots from below.

Palette's sockets widened, he looked away from the bones and to Error.
There was something different about him, his aura was dark and alarming. He glared at them...

Pj grabbed Palette and Peacock's arm and rushed them off. Palette paused causing them to jerk. "What are you doing Pj!?" Pj stood there shocked "Are you nuts!? Do you not know who that guy is!?"

Palette scoffed "It doesn't matter who he is, we need to help him, he's having a panic attack!" Pj roughly shook Palette's shoulders. "He's the destroyer! He demolished Aus before he was locked up!"

The Creator stood there disturbed "I knew there was something off about him.." Pj once again jerked Palette's arm and began walking away from Error's direction.

"We still can't just abandon him, especially with Sprinkle. Mr. Error seems like a pleasant guy, he just needs support...Paperjam are you paying attention!?"
Palette jerked his arm away again.

Pj pushed Palette to the ground "Are you an idiot!? He could dust us with the wave of his hand! We have to get out of here and get help!...real help"
Palette looked away from the goopy skeleton "Okay.. let's go find some help"

Peacock skated over and helped Palette up "Are you okay? Why is he so rough?" Pallete sighed "I'm okay and he means well, he's never really had friends or family..he doesn't know how to act." Peacock shrugged "Okay...I guess..wait..who's gonna make sure Unswagger Error doesn't do something crazy?"

Palette paused, he grabbed PJ's arm and turned him around. "You guys stay with him, I'll find my uncle!" Pj  scoffed "You're not gonna find him.."

"He's the King of Negativity,  How hard could it be?" Palette summoned his paint roller and painted a portal "I'll be back with the help...keep an eyesocket on Mister Error, calm him down a little.."

Just before Palette left, Pj grabbed his sleeve "Just-....be careful..okay?" Palette hugged him "Of course little bro..see ya" He saluted with his fingers and left.

Paperjam's smile dropped "little bro?"

Meanwhile...

Error was out of strength, everything around him blurred out, his feet wobbling with every step.

Sprinkle was filled with fear but he knew he had to calm his poor Uncle down. He leaped out of Error's arms, tugged his hand, sat by a tree, and laid Error's head on his lap.
