The comic inspired me to create this story but I suggest everyone goes and read the comic to see what happened because my story has a very different change compared to the end of their comic. Onto the story.

------

Dream slowly walked up the hill, the world spinning in his vision. He was so mad that he was tricked but he was also so tired. Once he was at the top of the hill someone ran into him. Making him fall to the ground and leaving him confused and in pain. "Every man for themselves!" Someone yelled as they got off of Dream and ran off.

The positive skeleton slowly opened his eye sockets and saw the golden apple in front of him. His eye sockets widened, eye lights shrunk in fear as he saw the apple. Only he and Nightmare are able to get the apples, and his brother would never touch the golden apples since he knew how his powers would affect them.

Which only meant one thing. "N-No..." He shakily grabbed the apple and pulled it close to him. "They can't have it." Slowly getting onto his feet and looked around in a blurry panic. He spotted something that made his bones turn cold.

Adrenalin coursed through the skeleton, counteracting against the drugged tea that he drank earlier in the day, as he ran to the chopped down tree and stared at it. "Nooo!" He stared at the branches seeing that the only golden apple left was the one in his hand. While there on the ground laid Nightmare.

Dream stared at his brother. Eye lights vanishing from his sockets as he stared at his brothers body. The upper right side of his skull was completely gone. Leaving nothing but a hole in it's place. "Nightmare? Nightmare. NIGHTMARE!" He yelled running to his brothers side.

He shook in fear as he grabbed Nightmare by the arm pits and started to drag him to the tree stump. "N-Nightmare. Please wake up. It's me Dream. Please! Please wake up! I'm sorry I didn't listen! I should've staid with you!" He panted in fear and looked around in his panic. He grabbed ahold of the fabric that once hung from the tree and symbolized their home.

He carefully wrapped the fabric around Nightmare's body and shook not knowing what to do. He blinked and looked at the golden apple that he was carrying then looked up at Nightmare. "M-Maybe.. d-don't worry Nightmare. H-Here eat the golden apple! It'll make you feel better I promise." Dream shook as he held the apple infront of Nightmare.

Hoping his mind screaming and begging for Nightmare to at the very least summon his eye light and stare at the apple... but nothing happened.

Dream shook and took a few deep breaths as he tried to think of something. "O-Of course your p-probably knocked out! I just need to cut the apple up maybe mash it up a little and help you eat it!"

He shook a little and stared at his brothers motionless body and frowned from the lack of movement. Without waiting any time he quickly moved down to Nightmare's boot and pulled out one of the spiked boned that he kept there for protection.

"Y-You'll see Nightmare. Once you eat some of this apple you'll wake up and be as good as new. Like nothing happened..." Dream said outloud and cut the apple in two. Discarding the seeds from one half and sitting beside his twin. He carefully used the bone to cut out a bit of the apple and thought.
