The plan had been simple once explained. Nightmare wasn't sure of the SCP's abilities, but had no choice but to believe in them. Classic was his only worry. Personally, he didn't care how many humans were slaughtered during the plan. His hatred for them had only risen from before after finding that Classic was in danger. 

"So, when do we start the plan?" SCP-049 glanced at SCP-035 before sighing, his fingers reaching toward the mask slowly. At first SCP-035 tensed, his body language partially excited to be noticed by SCP-049. Of course, all too soon his dreams were crushed when the fingers ripped the mask clean off the body. "WHA- WHY?" 

"Oh hush. I saw the state of the body. If this plan is to work, there is no time to gather a new host quiet yet. We will grab one on the outside, understood?" SCP-035 frowned as he remained silent, Nightmare glancing at the corpse melted on the floor. 

"That's nasty..." There was a lingering silence before SCP-049 hushed them, Nightmare understanding. He slowly moved toward the door, silent to avoid detection. The other SCP watched as his form seemed to lose stability, a puddle of black slithering beneath the door. Nightmare was partially happy they had flaws in their building. Made his traveling rather simple. Reforming on the other side of the door, he scowled before glancing toward the pallet on the wall. It shimmered brightly, awaiting a card to be swiped. Without thinking Nightmare pulled it from the wall, the door opening rapidly. 

"Pretty good my goop brother!" Nightmare glanced at SCP-035 before turning away, his feet moving rapidly. He could hear SCP-096's cries behind him, the noise rather chilling to hear.

"So, where will Classic be?" They all moved in a group as SCP-049 explained the areas of the facility. The more Nightmare learned, the more he grew to hate this facility. Not only that, but their encounters with guards were highly outnumbered. Many groups of guards were victim to SCP-096. Nightmare had been amazed to see the sheer brutality that came from such a thin figures.

"Should be up here on the right! Hurry and grab him. We really want to avoid them pulling the higher weapons out on us." Nightmare nodded before rounding the corner, the group following. Without hesitation he opened the door, the sudden noise startling the humans gathered around the table. A white frame laid still as fear pressed to Nightmare. He shot his tentacles forward, tearing into the humans before he let their corpses hit the floor. Rushing toward Classic, he felt a breath of relief seeing the sudden movement of his head. He seemed out of it, his sockets illuminating the pinpricks before falling dark once more.

"CLASSIC! Are you okay?" The words drew confusion as Classic merely nodded, his body refusing to fight the touch as he was lifted from the table. He curled closer to Nightmare, his soft breathing drawing a soothing air. The others seemed just as relieved.

"I am glad he is alright. Let's get going. This is the only chance we have, understood. If we're caught, we're never leaving those cells." SCP-035 seemed the least fazed, though Nightmare could understand why. He was a mask. His fate was in whomever hands he was in. 

"STOP!" The voice drew rage in Nightmare as he peered past the group, his gaze hovering dangerously on Doctor Kendall. He stood in the doorway, his head turned away from SCP-096. He reeked of fear.

"Have a death wish Doc?" Doctor Kendall shook his head slowly, his hand reaching into his pocket. The movement put the group on each, but they stopped when he held out a keycard. There was a lingering silence as no one spoke. 

"Take my card and leave. It's the least I could do before the end, you know?" Doctor Kendall looked more toward Nightmare, SCP-096 seeming to trigger.

"Wha-What are you doing?" There was a brief smile as Nightmare heard SCP-096's cries turn into blood curdling screams.

"I am apologizing and making up for my actions. It was decided I was to be terminated, so my final wish is to see this place fall. They are corrupt! Tell Classic that I truly regret my actions." Nightmare wanted to speak, to move and stop SCP-096, but he remained in place. His soul sank as SCP-096 shot past, the Doctor no longer standing in his spot before the door. Blood spread in the hall, slowly invading the room they were standing in. He could feel Classic stir from the sounds, his hand pressing Classic's skull closer to his body, shielding him from the sight. SCP-049 seemed to understand as he led the way outside, SCP-096 rejoining them. He glanced at Classic before slowly reaching out, only to stop as Nightmare shook his head. SCP-096 backed off slightly, following close to the Wendigo as they made their way down the halls.
