"Dad! Can you tell us a story? Please? A good one too!" Killer yelled, as he bounced on and off his bed, as Nightmare walked in with a book. Error, Dust, Cross, and Horror watched the book with curiosity, as Killer giggled happily as Nightmare picked him up mid air, and placing him back down onto his own bed.

"Now now, calm down, son. I have a new book that had been dropped off from Dream. We used to read this when younger." Nightmare then signaled for his sons to come atop the bed, as Nightmare sat down, Killer immediately coming close to his shoulder.

Dust sat down near his chest, including Horror as he leaned against Dust's side. Cross crawled onto Nightmare's leg, then onto his stomach. Nightmare didn't mind, as long as his elbows didn't come piercing into his bones.

"Ready, boys?" Nightmare looked at his sons, seeing them all nod. Specifically Killer, who got closer and closer by the second. Error climbed onto the bed now, finally after finishing a little paper puppet. "Yeah! Tell us, tell us!" Cross laughed as Nightmare's tentacle tickled his ribs.

"Good." Nightmare smiled fondly, opening the book. "Now... once upon a time, there lived a young pumpkin named Sebastian." Nightmare said, showing the picture to his sons. Horror licked his 'lips', as Dust giggled at his action. Killer and Cross noticed too.

"You can't eat him, Horror! He just barely appeared!" Cross cried out. Horror chuckled, hugging Dust. "Yes. Indeed he was the tasty looking fellow to villagers," Nightmare said, "but eating him will only cause trouble."

"Huh?" Horror looked at his dad, confused. "Let me continue. Sebastian wasn't like the other pumpkins. He, was a multicolored one. Only having the colors green, blue, yellow, too orange all over himself. He used to get picked on by other young pumpkins." Nightmare then showed them the pictures, as Sebastian was being poked by other pumpkin's leaves.

"Oh no, poor Sebastian!" Killer gasped, as he practically shoved his nose into the book. "Back up a little Killer, doing that can be hurtful to your little nose bone of yours." Nightmare then poked Killer's nose tip, earning a giggle.

"I would do anything to help you, Sebastian!" Error huffed, hugging Cross before going back to leaning on Nightmare.

"Sebastian also tried to gain people's attention to pick him off his vine, trying to find a new home, but sadly no one ever dared to pick him up. See, the town was always so gloomy. Just a gray hue to everything. Sebastian was the only one out of everything and everyone to be colorful." Nightmare hummed as he heard sniffles coming from no other than Cross. He thought at first that was Dust.

"Its okay, Cross. Sebastian is alright." Nightmare patted Cross's head, as he felt Cross nod.

"Sebastian decided it was time to change his town. He hated the colors that were always so gloomy and so empty. He wanted to change it. Seasons and Seasons went by, as Sebastian was growing older and older and older, small wrinkles and sprinkles of gray paletted onto himself." Nightmare frowned, seeing as his sons gasped in sadness. "Sebastian died?!" Killer yelled, as he spooked Dust from his sleep. Horror gulped, seeing the picture of Sebastian... Error shuddered too, seeing the wrinkles.

"No no. Just listen, silly." Nightmare looked at Killer. "Sebastian decided it was time. It was time to change his town. He knew it was worth a shot, knowing multiple outcomes. Either people will hate the colors even more, or, it'll cause problems. Sebastian withered, his body decomposing slowly. His smile no longer there, but just a smite of a smirk to be seen. The other pumpkins still picked on him though, for turning a brown. Sebastian didn't care. As his children, his little pumpkin seeds, spread across the garden." Nightmare smiled hearing the relieved cries of everyone, minus Dust who was asleep.

"Sebastian is okay!" Error beamed.

"Sebastian had sons and daughters, who grew up in the garden, beautiful colors everywhere. Pinks and Greens, Yellows, and Blues, even Purples. It was gorgeous. The other pumpkins soon came to a stop with the bullying, realizing that such words are useless to Sebastian's kids. Now, the town, found such pumpkins that were colored beautiful, and gorgeous. So, they picked them from their vines, spreading the happiness of colors. Now the town was filled with the rainbow, no longer gray and gloomy." Nightmare continued.

"But, only one pumpkin had not been picked, as Sebastian only had one offspring to look exactly like him, known as Timothy, the Multicolored pumpkin. The mascot of the beautiful town, now called, "Hopington." Sebastian outdid himself, surely, and thanks to his children, did his colors shine bright." Nightmare then closed the book, letting his kids take in the pride.

"Woah... Dad can we get a pumpkin just like Sebastian!" Killer and Error asked eagerly, as Dust snored, Horror giggling, and Cross sniffling.

"Dont get your funny bones in a knob, now you children. We can go shopping later this week. You guys have doctor appointments tomorrow, so get some sleep. Dust is the only one who listened." Nightmare chuckled after hearing the noo's and the why's.

"You all know better now, or else Sansta won't come by this year! He'll put you on the naughty list for not following your bedtime." Nightmare said, as he walked to the door.

"Awh man. Okay..." Killer and Error frowned, as they climbed onto their own beds, just to run onto Killer's bed, cuddling with Cross, Dust, and Horror.

"Goodnight, sons." Nightmare smiled, looking at them all on Killer's bed. "Goodnight, Dad!" They all yelled, as Dust muttered 'goodnight'.
