He remembered going to sleep in his own room at site 5, but woke up to find himself back at site 8 which honestly shouldn't even be possible. The place burned down to a crisp due to him. Nick remembered the day as if it was yesterday.

The day started off normal, with the usual needles and check-ups before going back to doing nothing for hours on end. Yet, this day was different. This day, they were going to test out his abilities.

He knew he had fire abilities, due to one time playing with a campfire at a holiday with his family. They didn't really mind that he was known as one of the things they called 'SCP's'. In all honesty, they were supportive.

As he walked towards the room the powers got tested in, something went wrong. His powers, which he never learned how to control, powered up and revealed themselves. Nick himself didn't remember this moment as clear as the rest, what possibly is for the best.

Starting again from what Nick does remember, site 8 was.. well was it even a site 8 anymore? Everything was melted down, some things were even burnt to a crisp.. Some scientists too. But this is the moment where it got weird for Nick. There were a few misplaced bodies lying around. He went to go look at them, but as he got closer he realised who they were. There, before him, he saw Clay's limp and lifeless body.

He looked up and realised that the entire site 5 was lying there. Tommy and Tubbo laying together, not too far off Wilbur, Techno and Phil. Ranboo and purpled weren't that far away either. They all were lying there in groups of four to five people.

Yet, there was one body that wasn't close to any other body. It was still moving, he rushed towards it to see it was none other than Karl. Karl, his little scientist, his lover, his world was lying there, struggling to remain alive. He grabbed Karl, yet to see everything around him turn dark.

Karl touched his face, with the words ''You couldn't control it, you became a monster Nick.'' leaving his mouth as he took his last breaths.

Nick woke up in cold sweat realising it was only a dream, or well a nightmare. Suddenly this severe headache came in, along with silent but quickly growing louder. Getting up, someone else on the bed that he hadn't noticed woke up.

''Sapnap..? What's up? Why's the bed so.. wet?'' He heard the other ask him. His voice came as a sweet flavour smell to him, but that quickly broken down realising it was Karl. ''Sapnap..?'' Karl asked again.

''Karl.. I- I can't.. You need, you need to leave--'' Nick got out. ''Sapnap? What do you mean I need to leave?'' ''The voices, they're so.. loud..'' ''What do you mean, the voices, Nick?''

This caused Nick's head to shoot up, Karl never called him Nick. Before he knows it, it all goes black around him. The next thing he sees are the burnt bodies from site 8 again, tormenting him. To him, he was just unconscious. To everybody else, the Nick who they once knew became a monster made out of fire, and they had no clue how to get Nick back.

''How on earth did this happen?''

''I thought we had his powers controlled?''

''We trained them with him ever since he came here?''

''How do we calm him down?''

''We've never dealt with this before?!''

''Call site 8-''

''That's destroyed, you dumbfuck!''

It was a normal morning for everyone, until the warning of č̶̤͙̣̥̺̬̱͎̙̿̈̓̆́̐o̴͈̹͖̬̦̦͍̿̑͂̂̈͝ͅd̶͕̻̙̞̙̠̯̞͍̍̌̐̑͆̈́̐͝ĕ̴̳̘͙͒̎ ̴̩̻̜̖̍̆͒̀̈́̏́̀͝r̸̗̤̣͈̫̟̗͍̍͋͊̆̓̑̕͜͜ë̶̩́͑̓̅̿̀̐̈́͋ḋ̵̙͎̦̟͘ went off causing chaos. It wasn't until a little later that everyone figured out                    where it came from. Nick's powers got out of control causing him to become some sort of walking firemonster.

''Okay everyone listen up! We need to get the SCP's to the safe-base underneath the site. Chop chop, we don't have forever!'' Ant exclaimed and so everyone did what they were told. The first ones that went to the safe-base were the weakest, Eret, Grayson, Niki and Jack. Once they were secured Floris, William and Toby were brought in followed by George, Sam, Darryl, Zak and the latest SCP Ranboo. They haven't gotten his actual name from HQ.

When they got to the last few SCP's, the site's strongest even more chaos erupted since Dream and Tommy didn't take a huge liking to each other. Though, this was quickly resolved when Nick showed up behind them, throwing fire-balls towards them. Phil, noticing it before anyone else, threw his wings in front of the people closest to Nick. Techno and Tommy took a huge disliking to this, since their father was hurt.

They tried to fight Nick, but only ended up being slung towards the walls resulting in them quickly being taken to the safe-base. Dream, the only SCP's left on floor level and Nick's best friend, couldn't believe his eyes. This had happened once before, and he wasn't going to let it happen again. Even if it would become his end.

As Dream started walking closer and closer, he started blocking out the angry screams from Amber and Karl. As he finally reached Nick, he opened his arms to see that the firemonster did not understand the gesture.

''Nick, It's okay. You don't need to do this again. It's caused you so much pain. It's okay, we're here for you and we're not leaving.''

The firemonster slowly stopped burning as much as before, and little by little Nick's actual body was slowly appearing again.

Dream started talking a little quieter, ''I am here and I am never leaving, not again, okay?''

''You're safe here, Nick. I promise you.''

''..They will never get to you again, Sapnap..'' And with that sentence, Nick was back to himself, in Dream's arms. A weak 'Thank you' came from Nick's mouth before actually passing out.

The next morning everyone was helping clean up the mess NIck had unknowingly created, while Dream and George were next to his side as he was still unconscious.

''Hey, Dream?''

''Yes?''

''How did you know how to calm him down?''

Dream chuckled, ''Remember site 8? The same thing happened there, but then he only calmed down due to someone he was close to being hurt by him, and almost leaving him on his own.''

''He has gone through a lot, hasn't he?''

''Yeah.. He has''

A few more hours passed, and Nick finally woke up. Not having any recollection on how he got in the on the outside burned infirmary, he looked to his side to see Dream and George, quietly waiting until he was fully there again.

''Goodmorning, sleeping beauty.'' George joked

''Damn, I really didn't miss those blue and brown eyes of yours, George.''

''And I didn't miss you.''

''Boys, Boys. Boys! That's enough'' Dream finally said, getting Nick and George to shut up after them arguing about nothing for the past 30 minutes. ''Anyways, Sapnap how are you feeling?''

''Like shit. Now, how did I get here?''

''Your up for a story.''
