Cross's Pov

    Nightmare paced back and forth through the throne room, growling at anyone who dared get in his sight. He glared at me once or twice when I'd step in his way. "My lord, if you don't mind me saying, pacing around won't do an-" Cross winced when Nightmare cut him off will a yell.

    "FIRST YOU GET IN MY WAY. NOW YOU'RE TRYING TO TELL ME WHAT TO DO! CAN'T YOU JUST MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS?!" Nightmare stormed up to me. Each step he took towards me, I took one backwards. I eventually back up against the wall, looking around desperately for somewhere else to go as Night towered over me.

    He placed his palm against my neck, starting to apply more and more pressure until I couldn't catch any air. "P-pl-ease.. c-ca-n't br-e-eatheee" I gasped for air when my king let go, realizing he snapped again. "I- ... Right now isn't the best time for you to be here.. go before something worse happens." He looked away in shame as I gasped for air, looking at him in shock.

    "M-my lord, please.. I'm fine I promise! L-lets just focus on the problem at hand.." A few seconds after I finished my sentence a scream broke out, Night glaring at the ground as he yelled in frustration. "NO! NOT AGAIN! I'M NOT DEALING WITH ANOTHER PROBLEM!"

    A now pissed Nightmare grabbed my wrist, making me wince one again, and dragged me along with him until we saw a flash of gold. Dream. That's when a muffled yell broke out again. "DREAM WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!" Out of pure instinct I ducked, happy I did so as one of Nightmare's tendrils whipped over my head.

    "Brother, I'm sorry, but I really have to get going!" With that Dream jumped through a portal, giving us a small glimpse of Killer in his arms. "HE HAS KILLER!" I yelled, darting towards the portal reaching for Killer. "CROSS WATCH OUT!" I noticed all to late as an arrow flew towards me. I never felt it collide with me though? Although I did collide with something. More like someone, but I still collided with it.

    Nightmare had yanked me to his side, pulling me along with him as he pressed himself against a wall. "You nearly died you idiot! Are you alright?!" Nightmare started to check over me for any injuries, though I pulled away from him, my face looking like a grape from embarrassment.

    "I-I'm fine my lord. Right now we have to worry if Killer's ok." I kept my voice low, though mine and Nightmare's yelling probably already woke the others (if they weren't already asleep). "Cross. Stop trying to avoid help. Killer can handle himself, if he hasn't already stabbed someone I'm sure he will soon. Are you alright?" Nightmare seemed genuinely worried, but I continued saying I was fine and that we need to worry about Killer.

    At one point Nightmare just shoved his hand over my mouth and growled. "CROSS HE WILL BE FINE." Our little 'fight' had woken the other two up, them now staring at us as Night continued to growl. I bit down on his hand, finally getting him to take it off my mouth.

    "WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK CROSS?!" Nightmare stared at the bite mark on his hand. He growled at himself as he cast a glare my way. "Im going to fucking murder you."

    Nightmare shoved Cross against the wall with a tendril while Dust and Horror bombarded him with questions. "LET. ME. GO!" Cross struggled against Night's hold, but couldn't get free. "Stop struggling! You're only wasting energy." The dark king places his palm against the knight's neck, but didn't apply pressure. With that Cross froze up.

    "Boss." Horror took a step towards Night, but Dust stopped him. "Give him a second. I've seen him do this before, he's not gonna hurt Cross." Horror nodded, but continued to glare at his boss.

    "Are you done yet?" Nightmare tilted his head, taking his hand off the smaller neck. Cross only took a deep, shaky, breath and nodded. "But what are we g-" Nightmare acted as if he was going to put his hand back on the knight's neck, making the oreo shut up.

    "Ask one more question about Killer and see what happens." The dark king sighed, pulling Cross into a hug also dragging the other two over with his tendrils. "Killer can take care of himself until we go get him. I promise you that." Nightmare pressed a small kiss to each of the threes foreheads, letting them go afterwards. "Go to bed, I'll figure out what to do with the whole Killer situation in a minute." Nightmare went to turn away, but felt a tug at his sleeve. "Huh?" He stopped, turning to whoever tugged his sleeve. It was Dust?

    "Horror doesn't want to sleep alone now, and I can't fall back asleep. Knowing Cross, he won't be able to sleep as well, he'll be to stressed from worry to sleep." Dust placed his hands on his hips, rolling his eye lights.

    "Alright then, follow me.. I guess it's another 'everyone steals my bed' night." He sighed, walking through the halls until they reached his room. "If Cross is sleep when you wake up, DON'T wake him up. He'll be grumpy." Nightmare pushed the door open, walking over to his mini bookshelf and grabbing a random book. He lied down, Horror cuddling up to his side, Dust laying down next to Horror, and Cross awkwardly stood in the doorway.

    "Cross, get the fuck over here. You don't have to cuddle up next to me like Horror, but you still have to come over here to attempt to sleep. You will sleep wether it's with my help or not." Nightmare narrowed his eyes at Cross when he tried to walk away.

    Dust sighed, pushing himself up into a sitting position. "I got him, don't worry." Before Dust finished his sentence he used his magic to lift the Oreo, dragging him over onto the bed. "Thank you Dust."

    "You won't get anything out of me." Killer glared at the three skeletons Infront of him. "Oh, we don't need you for questions! We need you for a small... Experiment!" Ink smiled, though Dream seemed slightly uneasy. "Maybe we should rethink this, what if he doesn't survive? My brother would kill me!" Dream started to panic. "I should've never brought him here!"

    "Dream, he'll be fine. Stop worrying so much! He's our enemy anyways!" Ink sighed disappointedly, grabbing Dreams arm before he could do anything stupid. "SWAP BRING IN SCI!!" Ink called out to swap, soon after seeing sci enter the room, followed by Swap.

    Sci had entered with a few syringes and a few small vials. "Don't worry Killer! This will only hurt a lot." Sci smiled darkly, moving Infront of the tied up skeleton.

    "Goodnight boys." Nightmare had pulled Cross to his side, making sure the Oreo didn't try to escape. One incoherent 'goodnight boss' and a incoherent 'night mom' we're heard. Cross only sighed.

    "Cross, go to sleep. I'll figure out what to do about the whole Killer situation after you get some sleep."

    "Stop squirming. This will only feel like a pinch." I had to get Dream to hold Killer down because he wouldn't stay still long enough for me to inject him. I grabbed the needle, stabbing it into his arm with one swift movement. It obviously took him off guard, seeing as he winced, a muffled yell escaping him.

    "See? It was that easy." I injected the serum into his arm. (Idk what fAnCy words to use) After I had pulled the needle out of his arm Killer went limp. "IS HE DEAD?" Dream shook Killer, getting a groan of annoyance in response.

    "He'll be fine. Just a little... Weak. No matter how hard he fight it, the serum will do its job." I chuckled to myself, grabbing my stuff and leaving. I passed by Ink, stopping behind him. "If he doesn't survive, I'm not dealing with Nightmare."
