Where Monsters Lie (Undertale / SCP Crossover) - Darkhumour!

Sunlight streamed through the curtains as Classic stirred from his slumber. His body felt heavy as he struggled to sit up, his gaze dropping onto the still figure beside him. Arms wrapped lightly around his waist, holding him hostage. Chuckling lightly, Classic leaned over before planting a kiss on the other's head. The sudden action woke the sleeping figure as exhausted eyes were forced open. Classic leaned on his arm before a gentle smile rolled over his expression.

"Morning Nightmare. How did you sleep?" The other skeleton sighed slightly before snuggling closer. Laughter filled the room as Nightmare moved quickly, rolling Classic onto his back. He hovered over the smaller skeleton, a grin pressed to his features.

"Slept wonderfully, especially with you beside me!" Classic hummed softly as he widen his sockets ever so slightly.

"Oh? And here I thought the cruel and mighty Nightmare couldn't be fascinated by anyone!" Nightmare chuckled before leaning closer.

"Seems a fool melted the ice around my heart. Wonder who that could have been!?" Silence fell between them as Nightmare pressed his mouth to Classic's. The kiss started lightly before it deepened. Heat enveloped them both as lust filled their gaze. Fingers trailed Classic's legs as their tongues danced amongst themselves. Both would have progressed further had loud knocking not ruined the moment. Nightmare growled low before Classic pressed his head heavily into the pillow. "You have got to be kidding me..."

"Classic, are you up? Ink wants to talk with you about a new Au that appeared!" Classic glanced at Nightmare before he spoke loudly, allowing Nightmare to climb from the bed. Both knew Nightmare wasn't welcomed in the house.

"Give me one moment. Need to change and I'll be out, so head back to Ink." There was a long silence before footsteps trailed away from the room, Nightmare meeting Classic's gaze. Sadness pressed to his features before arms wrapped around Nightmare's shoulders.

"I won't be able to visit tonight, thought you should know." Classic nodded slowly before tightening his hold.

"It's all good. I will always be here waiting for you!" The words drew a smile from Nightmare as he chuckled lightly. His fingers trailed Classic's skull before he pulled from his grip. He moved for the window, slowly pulling it open before slipping out. He leapt to the grass below, his gaze rising toward the window for a moment before he disappeared entirely. The sight left a lingering feeling of loneliness growing in Classic. Shutting the window, he turned before fishing through his closet for a new outfit.

Slipping on the Sweatshirt and shorts, he stepped into his pink slippers. He stretched his arms above his head before stepping toward the door. Carefully he opened it to reveal a familiar face. His sockets narrowed as he scowled toward Red. The other skeleton grinned maniacally before speaking, his words laced with venom. Not that Classic blamed him. Years back he had broken off any chance of friendship with the edgy skeleton.

"So, who were you talking to?" Classic scoffed before shoving past, Red giving a low 'tch'.

"Stalking me now? If you must know, I was talking with myself." 

"Yeah... Sure! I know that the other voice was not your own. If I didn't know any better, I would assume that the other person wasn't welcomed here. Of course, that only leaves those in Nightmare's group!" He laughed loudly before speaking up once more, unaware of Classic's growing rage. "I'm guessing you want to avoid trouble, so be honest with me! Who's the lucky bad boy you're screwing?" 

The sound of Red hitting the wall stirred a commotion as Classic glared holes into the skeleton. If looks could kill, Red knew he would be dead many times over. Sweat trailed his skull as Classic leaned closer, the hand gripping the edgy skeletons shoulder blade tightening. "Say one word about any of this and you'll be signing your own demise. What I do is no ones business, got it?" 

"Y-Yeah..." Classic gave a soft smile before releasing Red as the doors to multiple rooms opened. He faked a laughed before skipping off down the hall. Red stood still, fear coursing through him. He felt he had stumbled upon gold, but instead it was a death wish. Exhaling a shaky breath he noticed the concerned gazes. Glaring, he turned away and walked off. One thing he knew from the encounter was just how terrifying Classic truly was. For a skeleton with many disadvantages, he was more intimidating then anyone thought was possible.

Classic had made his way toward the first floor, his feet stopping toward the bottom step as Ink met him at the landing. There was a long pause before anything was said. Ink gave a reassuring smile before Blue joined beside him. The two glanced between one another before Ink spoke up. Classic was quiet happy Dream was not present. Being with Nightmare left negativity lingering around him, almost like a shell caging his physical body.

"So, Blue told you about the new Au that appeared. I wanted to know if you would come with us to check it out!" Classic hesitated on a response as he peered around the two. Something warned him to refuse, but the other part held a deep trust for Ink. Slowly he nodded, both faces beaming. The sight only made Classic's unease grow. "Okay then! We're to head out now."

Classic didn't have time to prepare as ink was splashed below him. Without warning he fell through, his body colliding with the ground on the other side. He struggled to stand as Ink and Blue landed beside him. Something about the Au felt familiar as Classic took a moment to look around. His soul felt as if it had been ripped out. They had come to Nightmare's Au.

"Why are we here? I thought you said it was a new Au?" Ink's sockets darkened as he scowled, Blue looking to the floor. Classic felt himself step back, disbelief on his expression. "You lied to me... But why?"

"Because we know everything you're hiding. It's not easy to cover for my brother Classic, even you know that." The voice drew Classic's gaze, fear coursing through him. Dream slowly approached, anger and sorrow worn in the open the closer Dream got. "When were you going to be honest with us?"

"Is this whole thing because you believe I am betraying you? You're kidding, right?" Dream shook his head slowly as Ink spoke up. 

"Dream felt Nightmare's presence in your room this morning. Be honest with us or else!" Classic scoffed as he shook his head. He felt tears gather as he clenched his teeth together.

"I am not a traitor. My choice was to remain neutral, so I don't like being accused falsely! You wouldn't believe the truth even if I told you..." Dream widened his sockets before speaking softly. The other two remain silent, waiting to hear what Classic said. "I love Nightmare, just as he loves me. We're in a relationship, which is why you sensed him at the house this morning."

"Impossible! My brother can not love someone. He never found it in his heart to love his brother, so how can he love you?" The words felt like daggers as anger boiled up in Classic. He glared as his soul felt like it was being torn.

"It isn't impossible. Maybe if you had payed more attention to him in the past, he may not have become as he is now. Did you ever think maybe you were partly at fault for what he has become? All the bullying from the ones you called your 'friends'! He was suffering and you were too blind to see it!" Tears gathered in Dream's eyes as he stumbled backwards slightly. His anger was apparent as he formed his bow, rage glimmering from his eyes.

"You know NOTHING! I know I made mistakes in the past, but he never held it against me... He doesn't blame me. You're a traitor. A no good liar!" The moment the arrow shimmered in the dark, Classic felt a sense of foreboding. He quickly dodged as the arrow hit the spot he once stood. Dream readied another one as Ink tried to calm him. 

"Stop it! This isn't how we do things Dream!" A hand pulled at Dream, stirring him from his own rage. He blinked momentarily before tears trailed his face. Ink frowned as he pulled him into a hug. Once Dream was calm, Ink turned to Classic. "For being an enemy and siding with Nightmare's group..."

"You've got to be kidding me!"

"You're under arrest and will be held until a sentence can be given. Please do not resist us Classic. It's for the greater good of everyone." Classic shook his head as he held out his arms.

"Whatever. Do what you must, but you'll see how wrong you all are." Without another word Ink strapped cuffs on Classic. Both made eye contact before Classic seemed to notice something. Fear coursed through him as he tried to move behind Ink, but it was too late. Another arrow moved toward Classic, only this time he was unable to dodge. The closer it got, the more every sense began to give out. Closing his eyes he awaited the arrows impact.
