The purple clothed skeleton was walking from a successful trip. He managed to steal a book about Assassins and magic.
He loved this kind of book, even if he doesn't read a lot. He was already reading it, while walking.
Next to the trunk of the tree of feelings, his other half, Dream was sitting there. He was waiting patiently for his dear, oh so mischievous brother.
His golden eye lightened up as he catched the sight of the negative one.
"So, the terrible and dark assassin of the night, has decided to come and enlighten us with his presence!", Dream was enjoying this teasing very much. How he loved the purple blush that would cover his brother's cheeks from the frustration.
"Dream I will never be an assassin! I'm sure as hell, that I will rather fall of a roof and break my own neck, than someone else's.", Nightmare rolled his eyelights at his brother's silliness, it was rare to see him make jokes like these.
But his signature stupid grin was stretching on his face.....again.
His brother stopped laughing. He squinted at him: "What is your little brain planning now? It can't be good."
Nightmare was confident that he will upper the positive one with this.
"If you insist on me being later an assassin.... I will owe you a month without pranking, if I become one. If not, you will let me prank other. What do you think?" He was sure that Dream will deny this bet. But to his surprise he took his hand and agreed.
Afterwards both were laughing loudly at their stupidity.

Nightmare sighed at this happy memory. He was kneeling on the edge of a roof. He chuckled nonchalant: "Never thought, that I will lose this bet to you, Dream." His whisper wasn't louder than his own breath.
He pulled his hood down, to cover even more of his face.
He was the ASSASSIN OF THE NIGHT.
He's always so creative.
Dream had foresighted this perfectly, every other visionary would die of jealousy.

A.N.
I had this idea, that Nightmare was a Assassin in secret. I liked the thought of the twins to have their funny, precious moment, Dream teasing his brother occasionaly for liking these assassin book so much and Nightmare loving these books way to much. He just reads those books, nothing else. Nightmare became an assassin, because the meme squad were getting short on money. And if he's gonna die by Dream's sword, he will atleast have a good reason for it.
