~I bleed red~ | An Ink x Reader

Chapter 21

A weird sensation overtook me, and then I realized I was floating a few inches off the ground. I yelped in surprise and Dust simply laughed at my fear. It must be his doing...

Dust started to walk towards the door and for a fleeting moment I thought he was going to leave me here like this. That thought was quickly removed as I started to float along side him unwillingly.

We floated around several halls that all almost looked the same. We met a few more people along the way, I was unfamiliar with all of them. Though I did know one from a description that Dream told me, I knew that he was the Sans from Horrortale.

He didn't say anything as we passed, but just stared at me as I floated along. He had an almost hungry look to him, and I was glad when he was out of sight.

We reached a staircase with a low ceiling, and I already knew I was about to sustain some head injuries. Indeed I was right, I was 100% sure Dust was hitting my head against it on purpose.

My nose was bleeding when we reached the bottom, and I felt a lump forming on my temple.

I couldn't help but marvel at the room we entered into, it was clearly an enormous entrance hall. A massive door was directly opposite of the stairwell, and the goo skeleton was outside it.

"He's waiting." He simply stated as we drew closer and he quickly teleported into thin air.

Dust made no reaction to this and pushed open the grand doors.

There, in the center of the room, on a throne that was much too large for him, was Nightmare. He looked the same as usual except for the golden crown on his head.

"So it's true... you caught her." Nightmare said, leaning back in his throne. He almost looked bored but I knew that was just an act. The look in his eye was simply one of excitement.

"Well, it wasn't hard since she was just waiting on my bed." He walked up to Nightmare and dropped me to his feet. I cried out in pain since he landed me on my now even more bloody nose.

"Go." He told Dust as he stared down at me.

"What?! I don't even get a reward?!" Dust protested, raising his voice so it echoed across the room.

"Later." Nightmare didn't even look at him.

I heard Dust grunt and walk out of the room, slamming the door behind him.

It was just me and Nightmare. Alone. I glared at him the hardest I could. Hoping somehow that my looks could kill.

"How did you get in here?" He asked, the question completely caught me off guard. I was expecting him to hurt me.

"I-" I had no idea, but I wasn't going to tell him that. I decided to keep my mouth shut, no matter what.

Nightmare glared at me as hard as I was glaring at him. He stepped off his throne and onto me. His entire weight was pressed into my stomach, he was heavier than I expected. I've had the pleasure of picking up Blueberry and he was extremely light, afterall he was a short skeleton.

I choked on air as I attempted to continue breathing, but that was the only sign of pain I showed. I continued to stay silent.
