Error grew fond of Dream, same as he did with everyone else. He loved company, something he used to hate. "Come on Dream, it'll be awesome." Error said dragging Dream up to his bedroom. Dream was nervous and still a little shocked from Error's current actions. Error reached up to grab the door handle and pulled Dream inside his room. He loved people in room. "This is my room, I have puppets and books and Uncle Blue reads me books." Errors said eagerly. Dream glances at the doorway to see Cross and Ink in the doorway. "Your room looks more boring than any room I've ever seen." Dream said. Error frowned slightly nodding. "Yeah, but I'm happy I have one, but..." Error glances at the window hoping nothing was there. "...that black melting thing likes to scare me." Error said  turning the black fabric on his hand. "I made a puppet hoping it would scare him away but it didn't." Error showed Dream the puppet.

Nightmare.

Nightmare was feeding off of Errors fear and loved it.

"Now I know why I'm here." Dream muttered before looking at Ink and Cross. "Error how about you help daddy down stairs." Cross said and as Error rushed down stairs. Dream sat on the bed and sighed. "Why would he want Error, he's useless in this state?" Dream said. "Error is not good at fighting in this state either, Nightmare will hurt him." Dream said. Ink sat beside him. "How long has Nightmare been watching him is the real question, if we know then we'll be able to know how much he knows." Cross said. "Dust is the only who hasn't met Error so he told Nightmare." "Error is not gonna fight back, he's too small and scared to hurt people." Suddenly a crash was heard.

-Errors POV- (yep I did)
I had helped daddy make tacos and asked if I could take some up to Dream, Ink, and Cross.

"He useless in this state."

What? Why would he say that? I probably heard him wrong.

"He's not good at fighting in this state either..."

I was frozen. He didn't mean it did he?

"He's too small and scared to hurt people."

I dropped the plate as tears spilled from my eyes.

"You think I'm useless?"

-back to normal POV-
Error backed up away from the trio.

"You think I'm useless?"

The trio quickly understood that they were misunderstood. "No, we were just trying to..." Dream stumbled for words to find but ended up with nothing. Error had strings spiraling around his fingers and connecting to the ceiling. "You think I'm too small to fight?" Error had a face stained with tears and sorrow, but...

Regret stained his whole body inside and out.

He should have never trusted these people. He should have never believed them. Blinking, he realized his strings had wrapped the trio and as they struggled, they only got tighter. He stared in horror at his own hands.

"I never wanted to hurt anyone."

Retracting his strings he fell to his knees. Ink stood in horror, the old Error still stood but changed his mind and hid himself in his own shadow. Ink never thought the old Error could be merciful. Error looked up at Dream and cried. "Why do you think I'm useless?" Error asked. Dream knelt in front of Error and grabbed him by the shoulders. "You aren't useless but Nightmare wants to hurt you so you learn hate and abuse so you won't be useless to him." Dream explained. Error wiped his eyes and glanced at the window seeing the thing in the window staring at him and chuckling. Soon, it was standing inside.

"Well look at what we have here?"

Error starting crying again and stuffed his face into Dreams shirt. Dream picked up Error hold him tightly and and safely to his chest.

"Hello brother."

I did absolutely terrible in this chapter. I'm running out of ideas not to mention school has gotten me on the edge. I have enough time to write just like inside school problems are getting to me. Hope you enjoyed!
