Reborn as Error

32 - Bitty Issue

Currently I was in Nightmare's office. Why you may ask, because he called for me. Why did he do that you may ask again, well that's because something happened.

When I walked in I could feel the frustration rolling off of him in waves. Literally could feel it. He was staring at his desk and wordlessly gestured me over to see what the issue was.

On his desk were the murder time trio arguing amongst themselves, talking over the other, and pointing fingers.

On his desk. All of them. How? Well....

"Why are they bitties sir?" 

Nightmare sighed as if I asked the Golden questions he's been waiting to hear. 

"Their last mission... did not go so well."

"....I see."

Yes, they were bitties. How? I have no idea. I let out a sigh and rubbed at my temple feeling a headache coming along with all the tiny yelling.

"Do you want me to contact someone to see if they can fix it? I know someone who might have an idea?"

I could see Nightmare contemplating the idea for a brief second but he shook he head denying to offer. 

"No... consider this their punishment."

"Boss!/Sir!/Why?!" The three protested from their spots yet it went ignored.

"Can you at least watch over them? I don't want to spring this on you but I feel you would be the least likely one to squish them."

"I suppose...." I said before wrapping the three up in my strings and ignoring their protests. 

"Good, I have things to do so you may leave now." With that said I left Nightmare's office and dropped the three small skeletons into my pocket. 

"Hey! Be careful!" I heard Killer say.

"You're fine... ya big baby..."

"I heard that!" 

"Good."

Glancing down I could see that one by one they managed to detangle themself and peeked out of the pocket to see where we were going. Once I arrived at my room I took out the three and placed them on my desk. 

"So... someone want to tell me what happened?"

"Killer's fault," Horror and Dust said pointing at Killer who looked offended. 

"Hey! It was not entirely my fault!"

"We had a run in with this witch lady in an au we had to look into, some kind of medieval looking place." Dust said starting to actually tell me something that was useful.

"Ok... I follow so far."

"Killer taunted the woman for her height and this happened," Horror said while looking around with interest. His size changes his perspective on the world. 

"That's not all! Dust was rude and Horror just nonchalantly comments on wondering how they would taste!"

"Ah, there it is." I huffed a bit before moving my seat a bit away from desk so I could sit down myself.

"....I'm hungry," Horror said after a moment of silence and I took a mental note of that. 

"I'll get you something to eat in a bit, be patient please. I have a new question though. How'd you get back?"

Dust found an eraser on my desk and dragged it over before taking a seat and speaking.

"We were supposed to be done and meet up at the pick up spot but we were well over an hour late. Nightmare knew something was up when we were taking forever, he only spotted us because our frustration was well over the roof."
