Chapter 2
"WAIT!" Blue's sudden and loud shout startles both the other Stars, who accidentally forgot Blue was here.
"Stars! What Blue?!" Ink shouts, sounding slightly exasperated.
"SHOULDN'T WE MAYBE KIDNAP THE DESTROYER? IN ORDER TO GET ANSWERS, YOU KNOW? WE CAN'T RIGHTFULLY SENTENCE THE DESTROYER TO DEATH IF WE DON'T HAVE ANY INFORMATION AS TO WHY HE DESTROYS, OR WHY HE KIDNAPPED ME, OR WHY HE VISITS OUTERTALE SO OFTEN?" Dream sighs softly in relief, for once happy Blue retained his innocence after Error's kidnapping.
"I am in agreement with Blue. Before we kill him, we should try to learn as much as we can."
"Dream, Blue, I know why he destroys. It's because he enjoys the action and the screams. He's a soulless evil being who kidnapped you, Blue. YOU! A completely innocent Sans and he kidnapped you! So that he could torture and brainwash you!" If Dream didn't know better, he would swear he saw Blue's happy face vanish, replaced by a frustrated, tired, exasperated face. But it was only for a second, then Blue's chipper happy face was back.
"SURE, YOU ASSUME THAT, BUT HOW DO YOU ACTUALLY KNOW? HE NEVER CONFESSED THOSE THINGS UNDER A TRUTH SPELL. IT WAS ALWAYS IN A FIGHT, WHEN HE WAS PROBABLY TRYING TO RILE YOU UP ANYWAYS. WE CAN'T KNOW ANYTHING FOR SURE UNTIL WE CHECK HIS SOUL AND TRUTH SPELL IT UP AND GET REAL ANSWERS OUT OF HIM." Dream nods.
"We need to be sure. I believe you that he's a soulless monster, but I want to be 100% sure before we do any killing. Murder is bad unless it's a truly evil person, then it is in service of the greater good." Ink huffs, sighing.
"Fine." Ink turns and looks over the edge, growling in frustration.
"Well, we would be kidnapping him, if he hadn't teleported away like a damn coward!!!" Blue seems to smile wider at the knowledge that Error got away, but Dream waves it away as just a random coincidence and not a causational relationship. Blue was kidnapped by Error, so if he does care about Error, it'd just be Stockholm Syndrome, right?
"Well funk it all, now I'll have to keep an eye on shiz until I find Error again!" Dream raises a brow.
"Ink, what did you just say?"
"Funk and shiz?" Realization dawns on the three's faces, Blue's realization causing his grin to widen again.
"YO YO YO, WHAT'S ALL DIGGIDY UP MY FINE BROTATO CHIPS?!" Blue smiles at the 90s nightmare, Dream externally smiles but internally begins thinking about leaping off the cliff, and Ink groans loudly.
"HELLO FRESH!" Fresh gives a nice nod to Blue, hugging the smaller skeleton.
"YOU ALL UP N HAVING A RAD PARTY TIME HERE, BROSEPHS?!" Ink growls, forcing a smile onto his face.
"Not really Fresh. We're actually trying to find and capture Error so we can reveal once and for all his soulless nature and end him for the greater good." Fresh instantly freezes, focusing on Ink, the atmosphere getting abnormally cold abnormally fast as Fresh walks over to Ink and slowly lowers his glasses, purple smoke billowing past Dream.
"Now my unrad brotato chip, I hope you all up n change your plan regarding Error brah. Or else, I may all up n do some unrad things to ya." Fresh replaces his glasses, turning to face the other two.
"WHAT'S ALL HAPPENING WITH YOU TWO BRAHS?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Error blinks as he lands rather hard on a wooden coffee table, looking up at a ceiling.
"Huh, I c0u1d 5w34r th3 4nti-V0id d035n't h4v3 4 c3i1ing, 45id3 fr0m my 5p3ci41 4dditi0n5." (Huh, I could swer the anti-Void doesn't have a ceiling, aside from my special additions.)
"Huh, I could swear my crew didn't include a skeleton on the verge of glitching out of existence." Error looks around for the voice, finding a goopified octopus simply standing near the end of the couch, holding a mug that says "Coffee? Like my Soul." and generally looking like he woke up a solid ten minutes ago and has all the patience of Ink on the red vial.
"0n3, wh3r3 4m I? Tw0, Cr3w?" (One, where am I? Two, Crew?)
"One, you're in my mansion, but I can't tell you much more about where right now. As for Two, my crew is an odd assortment of skeletons that tend to be...sanity challenged compared to normal Sanses." Error slowly gets up off the table, looking around for an exit where he can pop open the menu and identify his way home.
"W311, th4nk5 but-" (Well, thanks but-) Error is cut off as a goopy tentacle wraps around his waist.
"What did I do to give off the aura I didn't want you to stick around?" The goopified skeleton makes a playful frowning face, before smirking as he brings Error close to his face.
"I want to keep you around for a while, my glitchy friend~"
~BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP~
Nightmare blinks as a piercing beep noise echoes in the mansion, waking everyone up. The first down is Killer, who yawns when he sees Nightmare's got it under control. Cross is next, wearing his hood and glaring at the small glitching body that is emitting the beep noise. Horror and Dust are walking in sync, covering their ears and heading for the kitchen, both are very strangely small, compared to normal Sanses. Then Razz and Black both make their way down, reacting appropriately to the noise. Razz is worried and tired, Black just flips the bird. Fell stumbles down eventually, blinking in confusion after literally tumbling down the stairs. Hate just floats over the confused skeleton sighing.
"Can't you make that fucking thing shut up? SOME of us are trying to get beauty sleep." Hate mutters as he walks by Nightmare. The King reacts in turn.
"Did you think I MEANT to trigger a fucking siren?! If I did, you would have known because I would have beaten your asses. I dunno how to make him shut up. He just appeared on the coffee table, then tried to leave. I wrapped him up in a tentacle, pulled him close to my face, and then this annoying beep started. He was glitching himself out of existence when I first silently studied him. Maybe this has something to do with-" The beep noise ceases, and then a earrape windows start up noise is heard, before a box appears in front of the glitching one's face.
*Error.EXE has crashed! Send a report?
*Yes
OR
*No
Nightmare huffs.
"Seems like a program. Odd." Nightmare clicks the *Yes button, and a new window appears.
*Error.EXE has crashed! Reboot or Restore?
*Reboot
OR
*Restore
Nightmare looks at the other skeletons, raising a brow.
"Reboot or Restore?"
"Restore sounds like a lot more work than we're willing to do. Reboot for now and ask the glitching one what that stuff means." Killer nonchalantly says, and the other skeletons look at Nightmare, trying to gage if they should leave Killer to dust or if they should stand with Kills.
"Good idea, Killer." Killer is the only skeleton not to sigh in relief, him having been near Nightmare the longest and knowing all the buttons to press or leave alone. Nightmare presses Reboot, and a bar appears, slowly going up to 100%.
