Cross' POV

I gaze at Dream, frozen in fright and pinned to the ground. He looked like how Nightmare usually does, only a small space around his eyes remaining. I could see the fear in his eyes. 

What are you doing? Fight that freak! Get outta there!

No!

What? Why not? Do you wanna die? Because if you don't fight it, I WILL!

That's not an it! That's a he! That's Dream!

Say what now? How do you know?

I recognize his eyes! 

Ya, you gaze at him like a loverboy enough. But you need more proof than that.

"Dream?"I call

Dream looks at me.

"Is it you? Timeline 22X5-78D92M? Blink once if no, twice if yes."I say

Dream blinks twice.

Okay, that's fair.

"Can I get up? Are you okay?"I ask

The goop consumes him.

"He can't answer you right now. And my bosses want you so unless you will come willingly, than you can't get up. I'm fine, not sure about him."He says, tentacles coming closer

Bad sign! Time to get out!

Chara takes control and swings a fist, punching him in the face. Some goop comes off and I can see Dream again. He looks scared.

"Come on, Dream! You can fight it!"I tell him, taking control

He shakes his head no.

"Yes you can! I know you! You're way stronger than you think!"I tell him

He gets off me. I sit up. He holds his head and shakes it.

What are you doing? RUN!

No! He needs help!

He's gonna kill you!

No, he won't! I know Dream!

Well, if you haven't noticed, he isn't himself!

Doesn't mean we leave him!

Yes it does!

Dream looks at me and I could see tears in his eyes. He backs up but the tentacles fire at me. I dodge them and come over to him. He looks at me in shock and fear.

"Come on, Dream. I know you. You're my friend. I care about you. You can do this. Besides,"I say, reaching out to his hand

"I'll be with you every step of the way. You can get through this. You're amazing like that."I say, smiling

His eye lights shrink. The little bit of his actual face that I could see lights up brightly. I grasp his hand and hold it tightly. 

Then, I watch as the goop shrinks away until it's a little spot beneath his crown. He looks at me.

No way....

Dream did it!

"C-Cross?"Dream stutters

"I'm here, Dream. You did it! I knew you could!"I tell him

He stumbles closer.

"I'm trying to, at least."He says
