The prank was amazing. Even though me dust ink and horror, had to clean up the hay and take the cow out. Nightmare helped a little. Dust and ink were confused on why nightmare was helping but me and horror knew. It took us longer to place the hay then to remove it. Even though it took us 31 minutes. The room smelled like hay. I didn't mention the hay in his pillows because I wanted that to be a "gift" from the cow. After that dust planned the next prank. "When you come up with it, tell us" I told him. "Oh trust me I will" he said leaving the castle. Ink left a while ago. Horror gave us a "smile".

"So...what have you two been up to?" he asked. Nightmare shrugged. "I don't know. What have you and lust been up to" he asked horror. "Nothing much we got into a little argument but it's fine now". "What was the argument about?" I asked. "It was about what kind of clothes lust wanted to wear before we went to see blue and dream," he explained. "I can see that," I said. "Yeah his fashion taste is a little...Overboard".

Horror laughed a bit. "So nothing new with you guys" he asked. "Well" I said, looking at nightmare. Nightmare just shrugged. "You can say it if you want," he told me. I looked back at horror. "We had a 1 V 1 and I won," I explained. "Wait you did". "Yeah, his shyness got the best of him," I said, looking at nightmare. "Killer I swear" nightmare said, putting a tentacle in front of his face to cover the blush.

Horror laughed. "Well I should probably go now, lust wants to show me something, talk to you guys later" he said leaving. A minute or two later we went to my AU. "Why didn't you tell him?" Nightmare asked. "I wanted to keep it for a little longer...if it's fine with you of course". Nightmare patted me on the head. "As long as word doesn't get to dream about my broken skull I'm alright" he explained. "How would dream learn about your skull? '' I asked. "Remember you said in front of ink that you were dating a skeleton with a broken skull" nightmare reminded me.

"Oh yeah, he probably told everyone," I said. But no one has come up to me about it other than when ink made me wear the dress. So what if he didn't tell anyone other than error. Nightmare turned back into his old self. "So wanna try the 1 V 1 again" nightmare asked. "Why? Do you want another kiss?" I teased him. Nightmare blushed and froze for a second. I started to laugh a bit. "What-why-and-no-I just-well-" nightmare stuttered on every word he tried to say. I laughed at his attempt at saying no.

"Shush" he said blushing. "Hay you said a word" I kept teasing him. Nightmare turned around and walked away as I kept laughing. "Hey, wait up" I said, still laughing. I caught up with nightmare. I started walking next to him. He was still blushing. When he looked at me I smiled at him then he smiled back. I wanted to keep teasing him but I knew I would break him if I did. So I did the next best thing I could come up with. Nightmare kept walking and didn't see me stop. Once he got far enough away, I ran to him. He heard my footsteps and slowed down but didn't stop. "Piggyback ride!" I yelled as I jumped towards nightmare. "Wow wow wow" nightmare said trying to balance himself and not letting me fall. Once he steadied himself I was on his back.

"So where are we going?" I asked. "Really". "Yeah why not" I said, still on nightmare. Nightmare sighed then started to walk. "So this is what it's like to be tall" I said. "I don't think this makes you any taller". "Shush don't ruin my dreams to be tall" I said trying not to laugh. Nightmare started laughing though. Then I soon followed. After about 5 minutes we reached the house and I got off of nightmare. "So how was your little ride" nightmare asked. "It was fun," I replied.

We went inside and watched a movie. We watched (pick any movie in the world). It was...interesting. After that we made some spaghetti. Not bad for our first time trying to cook. But I may have accidentally spilled some spaghetti sauce on my jacket. Nightmare gave me his spare jacket upstairs. I know he's bigger than me but the jacket is huge on me. It's like a dress. But it is comfortable. And black fits me better than blue I think. Also it didn't have goop on it. "Hey, why doesn't your jacket have goop on it?" I asked. "The goop doesn't stick to my clothes very well," he replied. "But confetti does" I asked. A while ago we shot a Confetti cannon at nightmare for his birthday and it was in his goop for about a week.

(Yeah don't ask I'm out of ideas for this)

We fell asleep on the couch. I woke up when I heard someone scream outside. I looked around and nightmare was gone. Then I heard his voice outside. I jumped off the couch and ran out the door. Once I was outside and saw what was happening I froze. Nightmare was in his old form and there was another skeleton standing behind him with his arms crossed. He had a white and blue jacket and had blue string tears coming off his face like error. His eyes were blue and so were his teeth. I've never seen him before. But that wasn't the surprising part. Dream was also there. There was a black goopy apple on the ground with a bite taken out of it.

Dream was on his knees with tentacles coming out his back like nightmare. Dream was screaming in pain. I didn't know what to do. Nightmare was trying to calm down dream but I could tell he was scared. He was slowly walking towards dream, still trying to calm him down. I heard Dream yell louder as another tentacle formed. One of his tentacles went out of control and hit nightmare across the chest. He fell about 7 ft from where he was standing. Once he stood up he started coughing. I was still frozen in place. Dream yelled at nightmare telling him he was sorry. Nightmare looked at his feet and they were starting to turn to stone.

"NIGHTMARE" I yelled out running to him. Nightmare looked at me. The stone was up to his waist. "Killer no!" He yelled back. Dream looked up at me. The goop was almost covering his whole body. One of his tentacles swung at me but I jumped over it. I kept my eyes on nightmare. The stone was up to his neck now. Once I reached nightmare he was fully turned to stone. I went to reach out to touch his face but a string grabbed my arm. Then my legs and pulled me to the ground and towards the other skeleton. "Killer" I could barely hear dream say. He stood up but he wasn't dream anymore. He was covered in goop like nightmare.

I was tied up in strings on the ground. Dream tried to control his tentacles but they wouldn't listen. He had tears coming down his face as he looked at nightmare. He looked back at me and summoned his bow but it was a darker color than normal and so were the arrows. He tried to shoot at the other skeleton but he kept blocking with his bones and blasters. Dream gave up with his bow and decided to try and attack with his tentacles. That was the biggest mistake he ever made. When he got close enough the skeleton lifted his left hand and a bone went through Dream skull. Then he turned to dust. "DREAM" I yelled out but it was too late. I looked back at the skeleton. He was smiling at the dust and at nightmare. Then looked at me.

"So killer am I right?" he asked. I didn't say anything. "The names 404 it's nice to meet you" he said then he snapped his fingers and a gaster was up to my face charging. "Sadly I couldn't get to know you better" he said with a smile backing up. I looked at the gaster. I saw a blue light come from it and everything went cold. I quickly opened my eyes and sat up holding my chest. I looked around and I was inside the house. Nightmare wasn't here so I jumped up and ran outside. Once I opened the door nightmare turned around and looked at me. He was reading a book sitting on the porch. "Killer are you ok?" he said confused.

I ran towards nightmare, hugging him tight. "Killer what the hell happened" nightmare said looking down at me. I tightened my grip and didn't let go. "Killer answer me" nightmare said, more worried. I closed my eyes and thought about the dream. "It's just a dream," I said quietly. "What" nightmare asked. I didn't respond back.
