Kidnapped by the Murder Time Trio

Let's give this another go...

This Alternate Universe was a monsterless; there was no war long ago, no monsters sealed underneath a large mountain, and no young human falling down a massive hole to save monsterkind. 

Nope, just boring humans doing boring things. Like receiving another outrageous bill for their discontinued college classes-

“No, you listen here! You were in the room when I signed for a payment plan for these classes! I told you I couldn’t pay this in full!”

“Of course, but we have changed the policy-”

“Policy my ass!” 

The call was cut short and the sound of the mobile phone hitting the wall echoed down the hall. With a sigh, Rea stood and stepped away from her desk to head down the hall and check on her roommate. She knew that Yn was having a difficult time with schooling and other personal issues where they couldn’t continue for the remaining year. While Rea agreed the college wasn’t helping during their rough patch in life, they needed to calm down before they accidentally harmed themself or someone else. 

“Yn,” Rea called their name as she stepped into the room. Yn knelt on the floor where their phone landed and was now stressing over a cracked screen.  She sighed while she heard Yn mourn for their phone; “Did you break it this time?” 

Yn fell back onto their bottom and glanced over to their roommate with such a defeated look. “I did. But, I hadn’t meant to.”  Rea nodded in understanding, her hand held out for her roommate to take. When Yn handed their phone to Rea, confused, she gently took it from their hand and pocketed it. She then held out her hand once more, gesturing for them to take it this time. Yn flushed slightly from embarrassment and reached for their roommate’s hand and was helped up and onto their feet. 

“You get stressed out too easily. Everything will work out in the end. Don’t burn your bridges with the college; you said to yourself that you planned to return, right?” When Yn nodded, Rea continued.  “Then let’s be a little calmer next time.” Yn apologized softly and Rea accepted it; “You should really apologize to the financial aid next time they call.” Yn let out a humorless laugh. “If they call back.” 

While Rea checked over the damages on Yn’s phone, Yn left to retrieve a refreshing soda from the fridge for both themself and their roommate. They reached into the fridge and pulled out two cans before shutting the door- “Shit-!” They jumped from a fright that almost had them dropping the two cans of soda. 

The strange skeleton grabbed at his faux stomach as he laughed at having scared Yn. “Y-You should have seen your face!” He giggled gleefully; Yn flushed from embarrassment and grumbled softly as they turned away from the skeleton and left the kitchen. “Don’t be mad, Yn! I hadn’t meant to scare you!” Ink called out after them and hurried to follow. 

“Ink’s here.” Yn grumbled to their roommate, handing the soda over to them before plopping down on the sofa and cracked open their beverage. Rea thanked Yn with a smile, she handed Yn’s phone back, before opening her own beverage. Yn glanced over their phone, frowning when they saw the damage; “The crack in your phone isn’t bad, you can still use the touch screen well enough.” Rea explained before glancing towards the strange monster. “Hello, Ink. What brings you here?” She asks after taking a sip of her drink. 

Ink, a guardian of the Multiverse, had accidentally fallen into this AU not too long ago and immediately met Yn and Rea. After visiting a few months, he brought along his two friends, Dream and Blue. Both were skeletons as well. Ink was quick to share the stories of the other AU’s and of all the adventures he and his friends always had. 

Protecting the Multiverse from evil and destruction, as well as helping those who were in need! They were known as the Star Sanses, just hearing their names brought hope to those in trouble. Rea and Yn loved listening to their stories when the three of them came over to visit. It was always a good time when they were over. 

“I got bored. Dream got really hurt during our last battle with his brother, so he’s in recovery. Blue stayed home to hang out with his brother and friends.” Ink explained, having to snatch up his scarf to read off the little messages he wrote for himself in case he forgot. “Error is too grumpy to play with right now, so I came to see you two!” He exclaimed and jumped in between them on the sofa with an excited grin. Yn laughed, but told him to be careful. 

“Well, we don’t have anything planned right now.” Yn commented, setting their phone and drink aside before grabbing the remote to the television. “Why don’t we watch a movie or something?” Rea relaxed back into the sofa, smiling softly at the suggestion. “I definitely could use a break from my work.” Ink grinned and made himself more comfortable. “I wanna watch that movie where the little guy creates all sorts of things and saves his universe!” 

For a moment, both Rea and Yn looked at Ink, trying to think of what movie he was talking about. Rea suddenly snapped her fingers, startling Ink and Yn.  “You mean the Lego Movie? Sure, but I think we should watch the second one since you’ve already seen the first.” Ink’s eyes changed shapes and colors in his excitement, Yn remembered to reach for the mini trash bin and placed it in reach of Ink in case he vomited again. “There’s a second one?!” Rea and Yn laughed as Yn found the movie and started to play it. 

-

The afternoon flew by and soon Rea was getting up to begin cooking dinner; it was her turn to cook and she had a good meal planned. She invited Ink to stay, but he politely declined before bidding the two humans goodbye. The rest of the evening was spent hanging out until it was time for bed. 

As they both wished each other a good night's sleep, they separated to their own rooms and settled deep in their beds. Sleep came easy for them tonight, not a worry in the world as they drifted off into dreamland. . . 

The Sun had disappeared beyond the horizon while the Moon began its climb into the sky. In this seemingly peaceful town, there was a terrifying sound that came from the more suburban side of the town. The entire block of houses were destroyed, and underneath the debris were many dead and severely injured humans. Surrounding homes, the people were too afraid to look out their windows in case the attack wasn’t over. 

It wasn’t until the dust from the debris settled and the bombs? Was it even a bombing? Whatever had happened, the attackers had stopped their destruction. Only then the neighbors willed themselves to peek outside. They couldn’t see anything- of course, they missed the three strange figures disappearing from the end of the street. 

The three strangers reappeared further down the street near their targeted house; “Way to go, Dusty! You probably killed them!” Killer snapped, annoyance clear in his tone. “Tch, I’d like to see you do better, ass.” Dust shot back as he readjusted his scarf around his neck. His creepy glowing bicolor eyes peered from the darkness of his hood that hid his face from everyone around him. “Ugh, you’re so creepy, Dust.” Killer commented with a shiver, completely ignoring Horror who began to toss debris from the destroyed house. 

“Stop complaining and help Horror find the human.” Dust simply said, not at all offended by Killer’s comment.  “What? No- you help Horror! What the fuck?! It was your fault that Horror had to dig out the human! What if they’re dead? It’s all your fault!” Dust bit back a snarky remark and instead rolled his eyes once more before using his magic to lift a pile of wood and plaster only to toss it towards Killer, who yelled in surprise before getting buried. “Idiot.” Dust grinned and continued to use his magic to help Horror. 

Between the two skeletons, they were able to uncover the unconscious human, who was still alive yet injured. Horror started to gather them up into his arms just as Killer managed to get himself out from underneath the debris Dust continued to drop on top of him. The skeleton cursed and vented as he marched over to get into Dust’s face. He really wanted to punch him, but Dust stopped him easily;  “Hey, shut up and look. We have the human. Let’s go home.” 

Killer’s rage melted away as soon as he spun around to look at the limp human that was hung over Horror’s shoulder. “Oh, great job, big guy!” Killer grinned and gave Horror a thumbs up. “Just doing my job.” Horror grinned and chuckled as he readjusted the human, all the while Dust fumed; “I helped too, you know.” Killer simply waved his hand in dismissal; “Yeah, yeah. Good job, dusty musty-” Dust couldn’t stop the rage that filled his soul; Killer turned away from him just in time for a bone attack to slam into Killer’s head, knocking the annoying skeleton off his feet and onto the ground. 

Horror laughed, shaking his head at the foolishness. “I’m not carrying him.” He told Dust. With a heavy and annoyed sigh, Dust used his magic to carry Killer’s unconscious skeletal body with them. Horror sent a message to their boss, letting him know the mission was a success and they were ready to come home. Not long after the message was sent, one of Nightmare’s portals opened for the two skeletons to walk through.

-

Nightmare could feel the negativity rising in the AU his boys had just returned from, and it brought a grin of satisfaction to his teeth. The negativity was refreshing after having fought with his brother only a day ago. While Dream had left severely injured, Nightmare was starving for some gloomy emotions. He glanced over each of his subordinates, pleased with their progress with this mission. Or maybe it was because Killer was unconscious and not causing him a headache.

“Good job, both of you.” Nightmare commended Horror and Dust. The latter dropped Killer onto the ground with no care for his well being and stuffed his hands into his hoodie. “It was easy.” Dust said. Horror chuckled, blushing at the praise his boss gave them. “It was nothing, boss. Uh, Dusty over here caused enough wreckage that you should be feeling full by now.” 

“Yes,” Nightmare grinned wider, his cyan eye glowing with satisfaction. “It was a delicious meal, thank you.” It wasn’t everyday their boss thanked them. Horror happily accepted the thanks, while Dust shrugged like it was nothing. “No skin off my back, heh.” Dust said with a grin. Nightmare paused and narrowed his eye socket. “.. I will allow the stupid pun this one time.” He must have been in a really good mood to not get grumpy from the pun. 

A groan from Killer alerted the three skeletons, their attention drawn to him as Killer slowly climbed to his feet and studied his surroundings. “Hey, when did we get back? Did we get the human?” Nightmare leveled Killer with a small glare. “Yes, while you were resting, Horror and Dust finished the mission.” Killer choked in his false throat at the accusation of being lazy- “What?! Dust knocked me unconscious!” Killer exclaimed as he pointed his phalange directly at Dust, who simply ignored him. “Because you were being an idiot.” 

Killer looks irritated, his grumbling slowly growing louder, Nightmare cuts him off before he could pick a fight with Dust. “Enough. You three take the human to their room and make sure it’s locked. I don’t want it running around my castle.” Killer was quick to lose his temper and saluted his boss. “Yes sir!” He dramatically spun on his heel and started to march out of the room.  “Come on, guys!” 

Nightmare released a tired sigh; at least he had peace from Killer for a little while… 

-

“What do you think the boss wants with this human?” Killer asked, breaking the silence as the three of them wandered down the many halls of Nightmare’s castle. Nightmare had Cross set up a room just for the human, it only locked from the outside, so they couldn’t escape.  “Bait.” Was Dust’s one word reply. “Heh, yeah. Boss thinks this will get Dream to surrender.” Horror added as he checked on the human once more to make sure they weren’t dead.  “Hehehe, won’t Dreamy be upset when he finds out we have his favorite human~” Killer snickered as he fished out his mobile phone and unlocked it. 

He was quick to check on his followers for his UnderTube, a hobby most of the others thought was silly and a waste of time. Horror and Dust watched as Killer raised his phone, the camera app opened and snapped a selfie with Horror, Dust, and the human in the background while he was in front giving a wink and a peace sign to the camera. Next, the tips of his phalanges tapped at his screen as he added the photo to his profile with the caption; “Mission was a success, we captured the human!” 

By the time he pocketed his phone, they were in the room meant for their new human prisoner. Cross was finishing up a few touches in the room when the three walked in. “Good, you’re still here, Crossy!” Killer grinned, his nickname for the soldier earned him a narrowed glare. “Don’t call me that.” Cross said, but was ignored. “The human is injured, think you can patch them up?” Horror asked as he set the human down on the bed and stepped aside for Cross to check. 

Cross frowned when he saw the cuts and bruises all over the human, but thankfully there weren't any severe injuries. (Their roommate wasn’t so lucky…) “I would ask how you retrieved them, but I don’t really care. At least you brought this one back alive.” 

The last time Nightmare had requested the boys to kidnap a human, it didn’t end very well. “Oh no, Dust! The human we were supposed to protect!” Killer cried out in sarcasm. Dust didn’t much care for the human either and ended their suffering with a sharp bone straight to their soul. “Heh, boss is going to be angy.” Horror snickered.

“Hey, we tried!” Killer told Cross who simply rolled his eyes and got to work healing the human. 

Yn remembered waking when they heard what sounded like a bomb going off? The noise was loud, then came the house crumbling from the impact of it. The house fell apart with Yn and Rea inside. They remembered crying for help, albeit weakly, before darkness caved in on them. 

They floated in the darkness for what seemed like, well… Forever. Eventually, a bright light began to shine before them, but they didn’t need to move. They floated closer until they felt their feet touch solid ground once more and the light consumed them. 

“Yn, don’t fall asleep at the table.” Yn blinked in a daze as they looked around the room; they were seated at their kitchen table. The dining room was so familiar… They turned to look at the woman who had just spoken; she stepped out of the kitchen with a pitcher of freshly made lemonade, her disapproving frown lifting when she met Yn’s alert gaze. “Mom.” 

“Welcome to the land of the living. Did you stay up too late again? I know it’s the weekend, but you still need a good night’s rest.” Their mother lightly lectured them. Yn didn’t respond, they were very confused. Why were they having this dream? They didn’t want to have this dream, it was the last time they ever saw their mother’s loving smile before… 

No. 

They were not going to relive such a tragic memory again. 

The light around them seemed to brighten and suddenly they felt someone touching them. Panic flooded their soul as they forced themselves to wake up. Wake up. Wake. UP!

Yn’s eyes flew open and they released a sharp gasp as they came crashing back to reality. They quickly sat up and began to frantically look around the room, slowly realizing that they were no longer in their home. Home? No, it was destroyed! Then who, what, “Where?!” 

“Hey! You’re awake!” 

Yn shrieked in fright when a strange skeleton was suddenly in their face. “G-Get away!” They yelled and shoved the frightening skeleton from them and scrambled back further on the bed. The skeleton they shoved fell onto the floor with a grunt of pain. Another skeleton stepped to the side of the bed, his hands raised as if he were trying to calm a frightened animal. 

“Calm down, you’re safe here. You don’t have to be scared.” He tried to explain, but a snort caught their attention to another skeleton. This one’s face was hidden under the shadow of his hood, but his eyes glowed within that darkness as he rolled them.  “Seeing Killer’s ugly face first, I’d be scared too.” “Hey!” The one on the floor yelled as he jumped back to his feet and got into the hooded skeleton’s face, both beginning to argue. 

“Heh,” The taller, more ominous looking skeleton stepped closer, grinning wide. “I wouldn’t tell them that, Cross.” Yn glanced between the two skeletons who were before them, while the other two began to struggle in a wrestling match, before the hooded monster shoved “Killer” off and pinned him down with sharpened bones. 

“You’ve been kidnapped, but since you’re important to the boss’s plan, I suppose that does make it where you’re safe.” Horror added as an afterthought. “What? Why have I been kidnapped? What did I do?! Has this anything to do with the college? I-I didn’t mean to be rude-!” 

“Tch,” The hooded skeleton stepped closer as he regarded them with little interest.  “This has nothing to do with that. You’re just unlucky is all.” He explained. Yn shook their head, not quite understanding any of this.  “I’m literally no use to any of you!” Their raising in their panic. “Nah,” The voice came from beside them. It was then they realized the first skeleton managed to escape the bones that pinned him down. He appeared at their right side, sitting on the edge of the bed, body turned towards them. He smirked cruelly.  “You’re here because of your choice in friends. Really, you should pick better friends. Those Stars will just shoot you down~” 

Oh. 

Oh dear. 

Congratulations! You’ve been kidnapped by the Murder Time Trio!

[yournaothings]

Chilling With the Murder Time Trio!

"Hey, everyone! I have some great news!" Killer cheered as he regarded his audience. "Boss said I can invite one lucky fan to hang out with us for the day! So!" Killer clapped his skeletal hands together as he grinned wide and neared the camera until all his audience could see was one leaking hate, dark eye socket.  "I'm going to pick a random fan and bring you here!" He backed away to raise his arms and gesture towards their temporary house.  

"It'll be simple! All you have to do is list my best qualities in the chat! Whichever I find to my liking wins! Okay, ready? Start!" 

Killer cackles as he rubs his hands together, watching his chat go feral. All the compliments came piling in, it was a bit difficult to read all of them, but there was one that stood out the most. Killer points and calls out their name. "Congratulations! You get to hang out with me!" Killer turns away for a moment, looking off to the side and raises his voice.  "Boss! Boss! I picked one~!" 

A faint exasperated sigh was caught on the audio before Nightmare steps into frame beside Killer. He glares at the camera, looks at Killer and sighs again. "You realize that I was being sarcastic-" "Aw, come on, Boss! This kid won fair and square! It's only for a day!" Nightmare frowns, his one good eye light glaring before he rolls his eye light and turns back to look at the chat. "Whatever, you better not cause me trouble." 

While Nightmare worked on ripping the [un]lucky fan from their universe and to theirs, Killer cheers and grins at his camera for his audience to see.  "We're going to have so much fun!" 

--

"Mm~ cheeseburgers~!" Horror hummed excitedly as he grabbed the two burgers he just finished making before raising one to his mouth and taking a deliciously large bite. Sure, he had just eaten his favorite sandwich not too long ago, and maybe some yummy chips after.  His tummy rumbled, demanding delicious cheeseburgers!  If the others were in the kitchen with him, they would surely call him "fatty" and proceed to tease and mock him for his never ending hunger. 

"Oh- yes~ Now, that hits the spot!" He moans happily, the burger was just so delicious! "Oh!" He paused as he turned towards the fridge, remembering he wanted ketchup on his burgers! He set his burgers down on the counter before pulling open the large fridge- 

As soon as he opened the fridge doors, a human fell out, shivering and teeth chattering. "Huh?! What's a human doing in the fridge?! I didn't put them in there... Did I?" Forgetting the ketchup for the moment, Horror leaned down and picked the shivering up by their shoulders and lifted him above him so he could examine them.  "What were you doing in the fridge, human?" 

The human shivered and shuddered, their voice shaky as they spoke to Horror.  "W-Was pull- pulled through p-portal-! N-Nightmare a-and Kil-Killer..!" 

Well.. That didn't make any sense. Horror hummed in wonder as he remained holding the human, trying to figure out the strange explanation the human gave him-

"Horror!" 

"Huh?" Horror glanced over his shoulder to find Killer rushing into the kitchen; Killer pointed at Horror, no- he pointed at the human.  "That's mine! I had the Boss bring them here! They're supposed to hang out with us today!" Horror hummed in question as he glanced between the human and Killer, before finally looking at the human again. "But, why? We never play with the humans before. We've always killed them." 

"Not this time, Horror! Well, I don't plan to kill them, yet~ hehehe~" Killer giggled and pulled one of his knives out from his jacket to flash it around, threateningly. The human tensed, their gaze focused on the knife Killer waved around, and neared both them and Horror.  "P-Please don't kill me!" Killer snickered once more, waving his free hand towards them in dismissal and putting his knife away.  "I'm not gonna kill you, human. You won fair and square! You get to have lots of fun with us; the Murder Time Trio! I have plenty in store for you before we dispose of you!" 

"That.. Doesn't make me feel any better, you know." The human sighed, their shoulders becoming sore the longer Horror held onto them. "Can you perhaps, put me down now? You're kind of hurting me... Please?" 

"Oh! Oh, yeah! Here you go, friend." Horror said as he sat the human on the counter and patted their head. "You're gonna have a lot of fun with us! We're great- well, I'm pretty great. The others, not so much." Horror boasted while striking a pose and pressing his hand against his ribcage, his grin wide and his eyelights closed. 

It was very strange to see a skeleton closing their.. Eye sockets... Watching them doing it on their stream was just as weird as seeing it in person. The human had the urge to reach out and touch Horror's cheekbones. "Hey!" Killer's snappy voice startled the human. He was suddenly in front of both the human and Horror, his knife in hand again as he pointed the knife at Horror's face.  "I'm the greatest! Besides, the human is apart of my audience! Clearly, they like me better!" 

"Nuh uh!" Horror huffed as he crossed his arms over his ribcage and leaned down to give Killer a threatening glare, ignoring the knife. Killer could try to stab Horror, but Horror would just toss him aside like always. He could lock Killer away in the closet while Horror had fun with the human. "The human clearly likes me more!"  "What?! They literally just told you that you were hurting them! How could they like you if you were hurting them?!"  "It was an accident- besides. If you had them brought here, why were they in the fridge?" 

Killer paused, leaning back propping his balled up fists on his pelvis.  "The human was in the fridge? Are you sure you didn't put them there? There's no way the Boss put them there!" 

"It's true, I was sitting at my desk, and the next moment, I was in there." The human said, pointing at the fridge. "To be honest, I didn't think you were being serious. I'm pretty sure this is a fever dream- like, maybe my sandwich was bad and I passed out or something? Maybe I choked on the food and died?" 

Killer and Horror stared at the human, slowly blinking while letting the silence linger for an uncomfortably long ten to fifteen seconds. "Is that what you think happened?" Horror asked slowly.  "Eh, think what you want. As long as you play along! I'm bored, and you're my cure of said boredom!" 

"Well," The human's cheeks blossomed with a reddening blush, feeling silly now.  "L-Like I said, I didn't think you were serious."  Killer narrowed his eye sockets, his knife pointed towards the human now.  "Did you even mean what you said in the chat? Cause I can have the Boss take you back and I can pick someone else!" 

"W-What?! Of course I meant what I said! Killer, you're freaking cool, man. I mean, not as cool as Dust, but-" 

"Dust?! You think Dust is cooler than me?! What the fuck, man!" Killer cried and laid the back of his hand that still held his knife against his forehead, as he dramatically and sarcastically whined about his human guest liking Dusty Musty Rusty better than him! 

"Hehe, that's hilarious. I like 'em. I wanna keep 'em." Horror snickered, before he went back to eating his burgers. He smacked his.. Well, he made chewing smacking noises before he spoke with his mouth full of food.  "Don't send them away, mmmh." Horror chewed some more before swallowing his mouthful of food.  "You're my friend now, wanna burger?" He handed the second burger to the human, who hesitantly reached out to grab the offered burger, before Horror pulled it away.  "Hah! Just kidding! Silly willy~ I never share my food, hah!" 

"What the hell are you two doing in here?" Dust appeared behind Horror, rubbing at his eye sockets and yawned.  "You two are so loud, I just wanted to take my nap.. Why is there a human in the kitchen?" Dust asked and glared at the human guest before turning his glare towards Horror.  "I'm not eating a human for dinner, Horror."  

"What?! They're not for dinner!" Killer snapped, his knife now pointing and making a stabbing motion towards Dust.  "They're here to play with us!" 

"Yeah~ the human won some silly contest Killer made up and actually convinced the Boss to bring them here! Hehe~ They got stuck in the fridge, though." Horror explained in between his chewing.  Dust remained silent, his glaring gaze shifting between Killer and Horror before he shrugged, turning on his heel and trying to make his escape.  "I'm not apart of this-"  "The human likes you better~" Horror snickered, knowing that that might make Dust stay.  "Killer is pretty upset about it, heh." 

That little bit of information did make Dust pause, before he slowly turned back around to look at Killer's fuming glare, then to the embarrassed human who still sat on the counter. Killer was literally about to explode, this was his human! They liked him! That's why they said such wonderful things about him in the chat!   [Annoying and idiotic, stabby, and murderous. Yet, cool.]

"Reeaaallly~?" Dust chuckles as he walks over to the human, shoving Killer aside with a little too much force that was necessary.  "You think I'm cooler than Killer? I suppose that's alright. But, the moment you become annoying, I'm going to kill you and steal your EXP."  

The human tensed and gave Dust an uneasy smile.  "I-I'll try not to be annoying, Dust. For you." 

"Hey!" Killer shouted, startling the human, and catching Dust and Horror's attention.  "You're supposed to like me! You're here for me!" Killer stomped his foot in his little tantrum. The human was startled enough, that they leaned back, scared Killer was going to harm them- only to lay their hand down where they thought the counter would be, but met nothing but the air and fell off of the counter and hit the floor. They hit their face, smashing their nose against the tiled floor and causing them to have a bloodied nose. 

Dust started to cackle and point at the human, laughing at their pain. Horror chuckled past his mouthful of food.  "Hehe, woopsy!"  Killer sighed and shook his head as he teleported beside the fallen human and crouched down. He pushed the human onto their back, earning him a pained groan from the human, before using the back of his knife to lift their chin.  "From here on out, I think it's wise for you to be aware of your surroundings. Or else you're going to be getting hurt quite a bit." Killer grinned and snickered. 

The human sniffed and made a disgusted face as they felt the blood drip into the back of their throat. They had a moment of regret. This was supposed to be a dream come true, right? Instead, they began to think this was a misfortunate trip that would lead them to their death. Damn their admiration for the Murder Time Trio...

After the three murderous skeletons had their laugh, Horror was nice enough to help the human back up onto their feet. "Hehe, that looked like it hurt! Here, let me just-" He reached closer with a hand towel he had grabbed from the counter and helped clean the blood off of their face. The human's face contorted in pain as Horror wiped away the blood, their face sore from hitting the tiled floor so hard. "Thanks, Horror." They sighed once he was finished. "I appreciate it." 

"It's no problem, heh." Horror tossed the now dirtied hand towel behind him, landing on top of Dust's head. The bloody part of the towel slapped him in the face, while the rest rested on top of the hood that covered his skull. "Ugh! Horror! What the fuck!" Horror hummed as he turned to see why Dust was so upset, only to laugh at Dust. "Hah! That's hilarious!" Dust glared at Horror as he tossed the towel aside. "I'm going to kill you." Horror tipped his head towards Dust while pointing at him with a wide grin. "You can try, buuut~ You won't be able to." 

The human laughed softly while the two bickered back and forth, their hand raising to hide their smile. Killer chose that moment to steal his human's guest's attention away from the others.  "So, now that that's over with! I never asked! What's your name, human?" 

"Oh," The human smiled at Killer, easily forgetting that he had just been holding his knife way too close to their face several minutes ago.  They introduced themselves.  "It's nice to finally meet you, Killer. Regardless of how it all started, I'm very excited to be here." Killer's grin widened, giving off such a mischievous look.  "It's nice to meet you too, toots. But, I think the name Angel is much better for you." He grinned at them. "Anyway! Like I said before, be aware of your surroundings and you'll be juuuust fine. Or not. You can never know when it comes to me~"   Despite the warning yet again, they smiled.  "What did you have planned for the day anyway? Anything in particular?"  "I'm glad you asked!" Killer grinned at them gleefully, before grabbing their hand and started to drag them out of the kitchen and towards the back door. Angel eagerly followed, hoping whatever Killer had planned was going to be exciting! 

The other two skeletons finally stopped arguing with each other as soon as Killer left the kitchen. "He's going to kill them." Dust states as he and Horror watch Killer drag the human guest out of the house and to the backyard. "Yeah, probably." Horror hummed. He turned to glance down at Dust then to the back door before deciding to follow after their chaotic skeleton buddy. Dust sighs from exhaustion, before he too followed after the others. 

Killer placed Angel in front of a tree that clearly has been used as target practice with very sharp objects. "I really don't think this is a good idea, Killer." Angel said, feeling themselves sweat nervously and giving Killer a fearful look. "Ah, you'll be fine~! I never miss~" 

Angel fidgeted in place while they waited for Killer to prepare. Killer grinned mischievously, spinning his knife around expertly. He turned around to adjust his camera, grinning to his audience. "Are you guys ready to see something great?"  Just as Killer turned around and prepared to throw his knife, Nightmare wrapped his tentacle around Killer and lifted him off of his feet before he could do anything harmful. 

"What are you idiots doing now?" Nightmare asked, annoyed with Killer. He glanced back at the human-  "Oh, I forgot about you." He turned fully towards the human, frowning.  "Really, boss?" Killer asked as he spun his knife around and stabbed it into Nightmare's tentacle. Nightmare's expression shifted from annoyance to an irritated glare and he tossed Killer back towards the house and out of frame from his audience. Killer screamed as he flew and crashed into the porch; Horror and Dust finally stepped out of the house. There was silence for a good solid minute before Dust leaned over, pointing and laughing at Killer's pain.  

"You fucking idiots." Nightmare sighed heavily in annoyance. He pinched his nasal ridge, his one eye socket closing as he felt a headache coming on. "I don't know why I still keep you three." At the sound of the human's snickering, Nightmare straightened his posture and shot them a glare, making them press their lips into a thin line and straighten up. He could see the grin they were trying to hide, as well as feel the bit of fear they had. 

"I never get tired of watching Nightmare toss you around like a ragdoll." Dust said as he started to calm down from his laughing fit.  "That was pretty funny."  "What did you do this time, Killer to make Nightmare throw you?"  Dust asked, all three clearly ignoring Nightmare, who remained in place.  "Well, he popped in right before I got to show off my nice knife skills to Angel and the audience. I may have stabbed him a little too hard~" Killer grinned excitedly; he wasn't fazed by Nightmare tossing him. 

"You idiot." Dust huffed out, before returning to his usual calm and volatile self. "Heh-" Horror snickered before turning his attention to his boss. "Oh, uh, hey there, boss!" Nightmare sighs, rolling his cyan eye light. "Get the fuck over here, idiots." 

Angel leaned against the tree while Dust and Horror made their way closer, Horror moving to check on them. Angel smiled reassuringly up to Horror. All the while, Killer struggled to get himself unstuck from the outdoor furniture he got trapped under. 

Killer dusted himself off before teleporting over to stand beside his boss.  "So, what's going on, boss? I thought you were busy with work?"  Nightmare glared haphazardly at Killer, then Dust. "Come on, you're a part of this now, too~" Horror told Angel, as he placed a hand on the back of their neck and firmly nudged them towards Dust's side- Killer was on Dust's other side. Nightmare remained in front of the four.  

"I have a mission for you all. One of my conquered AU's is being overtaken by my brother and his stupid Stars. I need you three to go and cause more chaos and negativity." Killer pulls out his knife and spins it expertly while giggling with excitement.  "I'm game~"  Dust shrugged; "Sure." Horror grins and summons his axe.  "Sounds like fun~!" Nightmare relaxes his tense shoulders, before gesturing towards the human.  "Take the human with you." Killer grins and salutes his boss. "You got it, boss!" 

Nightmare rolls his singular eye light before telling them which AU they were going to, before melting into a puddle of goo and disappearing. Killer giggles as he teleports beside Angel and wraps an arm around their shoulders.  "You're gonna love this! Oh!" Killer perks up and turns to his discarded camera. He walks over and picks it back up, booping his audience.  "Heheh~ don't worry, everyone. I'm bringing you along, too~" 

"Which AU are we going to, anyway?" Angel asks, smiling; however, it didn't quite reach their eyes. They were a little worried. Actually, worry didn't begin to cover how they felt. They were afraid. What if they got hurt? What if the three murderous skeletons left them behind? They fully expected to go home after their time with the Murder Time Trio. 

"It's another Classic AU, but the humans made it a game to hunt and kill monsters." Killer explained, grinning. "If Dream and his Star boys have been meddling in that universe, then the humans and monsters may have found peace. Which means, we get to kill whoever we want and blame it on the opposite side!" Killer laughs as he spins his knife once more, before finally pocketing it and preparing to teleport to the AU with his team.  

Horror pulls Angel close, his larger arm wrapped around them, as Killer gripped their hand, his other hand gripped Dust's hand. Dust shot Killer with a small glare, before he took Horror's other hand. "Let's get this over with." Dust huffs. "Aw~ Don't sound too excited, Dust~" Killer snickers. Dust stares straight ahead- right at Angel and grins.  "Try not to get yourself killed, human. I suggest you find a hiding spot until we've finished." Angel tensed, their heart racing within their chest; this was a really bad idea. "I'll do my best to stay alive. Don't leave me behind, though, okay?"  Dust grins underneath his hood, yet his two colored eye lights glowing ominously.  "No promises~" 

---

There was a heavy atmosphere of negativity that seemed to be slowly lifting away and being replaced by what Angel would describe as positive energy. 

"Ugh, you can definitely feel Dream's magic here." Killer grouses as he watches the mayor speaking to the group of humans and monsters just ahead of them. The young human ambassador was making a speech with the King and Queen of the underground; they were indeed making a truce. A deal of peace. 

Thanks to the strange trio of stars, both humans and monsters have seen eye to eye and wished to bring this unnecessary war to an end. 

Yuck. 

"Alright, boys." Killer grins, his liquid hate dripping much faster from his eye sockets. His grin was sharp and dangerous, his eye sockets narrowing in a predatory glare. He was ready to go! "Remember what Nightmare said. We've got to get rid of Dream's positivity." 

"Yeah." Dust nods as he adjusts his scarf around his neck.  "It's about time to gain more LV." He glances back at Angel, notices how they grew even more tense since they arrived.  "Hey, I'm serious. Don't get yourself killed. Find a hiding spot and we'll come find you later." Angel frowned, they kind of wished Nightmare didn't make the trio bring them along.  "Okay." 

"Actually," Killer interjects as he continues to watch the ambassador, the king and the queen on the stage.  "I've got a little job for you."  Horror and Dust turned to look at Killer, curious as to what he had in mind.  "Break up their little meeting, you can do whatever you'd like. Make them scared, so they can start scattering like frightened sheep." 

Angel looked surprised, then uneasy. "Um, are you sure, Killer? What if something bad happens." Killer glances at Angel, his grin sharpening. "Don't worry, Angel~ We've got your back~ I know you'll do great out there." "Heh, yeah! We won't let any of these losers hurt you. All ya gots ta do is scare the crowd. We'll do the rest." Horror explains to Angel, his own grin wide and dangerous. Angel stood before the three skeletons as they stood at the ready for the attack. 

They knew these skeletons were murderers. They knew this, yet they followed Killer's streams and other servers. During the streams, Killer was a lot of fun to interact with, to watch and play games with. It was so easy to forget that he was a, well... Killer. Now, standing before him and his teammates, the reality settled in. Today should have been a fun day hanging out with the Murder Time Trio. They were supposed to go on fun trips, or play video games! Not... Not this. 

Killer isn't asking for you to kill anyone.But, he wants me to be a part of this mission. Which will lead to so many individuals' deaths. Would you rather run and hide, or show the three skeletons that you're up for the task? You're brave, after all, right?Right... I.. I can do this. They said that they wouldn't let anyone hurt me. Right, I can do this.

Closing their eyes and taking a deep breath in, Angel prepared themselves for their simple task of scaring the crowd. The rest would be up to the murderous skeletons.  Angel exhaled and opened their eyes, nodding to the three. "Okay, I'll do it." 

Killer's grin widened, his grip on his knives tightening.  "I know you'll do great!" He encouraged them, then gave his signature laughter.  Angel couldn't stop the grin that lifted their lips. His laughter was contagious, and surprisingly helped calm their anxious nerves. Turning towards the crowd, Angel breathed in deeply once more, held it for a few seconds before releasing it.  I just have to scare the crowd, then go find a safe place to wait out the rest of the mission. With their task in mind, Angel hurried towards the crowd. 

"They're something else, eheh." Horror chuckled, his grip on his axe tightening as he readied for the attack. "You shouldn't have included them." Dust said to Killer, the hooded skeleton's gaze remained on their human guest  before looking at the crowd- specifically on one individual.  "They're going to get hurt."  "Aw," Killer's usual gruff voice was mixed with bloodlust. He was going to let his audience watch him and the boys in action, but there would be too much going on that would trigger his viewers. He may be a murderous monster, but he was careful with those he enjoyed having around; therefore he wished to protect them if he could.. Sorry, audience. There won't be any cool fight scenes this time. 

"From this day forward, there will no longer be any more violence between mankind and monsters-" "It's a lie! While the ambassador, king and queen were speaking, they had monsters set out to kill innocent humans!" Angel shouted, startling the crowd and upsetting the King and Queen.  "What-? That's not possible. Everyone is here-" "Then why did the monsters try to grab and kill me?!" Angel pointed to their still sore face, (how did they not start to bruise from their fall this morning?)  "They're on their way here! I managed to escape them to warn you!" 

"There are no monsters attacking humans! If you're just trying to start something-" The Undyne of the AU stepped forward, trying to stop the panic before it caused chaos.  

"Oh no!" 

"I see them! They're here!"

"Liars!" 

The humans began to scatter like startled mice escaping their predator. Many humans shoved monsters out of the way, some even started to fight the monsters. The humans didn't play fair, either. Attacking the weaker monsters, while others didn't mind attacking the stronger ones. 

The Queen called out to everyone, trying to get everyone under control again, but it was already too late. She gasped when she saw a monster jump into the frightened crowd, knife raised high above his head and landed on top of a monster. A blast of magic caught her attention, followed by painful and horrified screams. The Queen covered her mouth with her furry paws, her soul aching with dread and sadness as she watched not only the monsters, but the humans be slaughtered by these strange monsters. The bodyguards and security were quick to usher the King, Queen, and Ambassador off the stage and to a private black in color vehicle. However, before they could climb into the vehicle, a large and heavy axe came crashing down onto it, destroying the front end of the vehicle. Another monster stood before them with his dangerous and predatory grin.  "Heh, no one's leaving, 'm afraid." 

Chaos flared around the stage. No one bothered the retreating human as they hurried to a safer place and waited for the boys to finish. Honestly, Angel didn't really want to watch. As much as they enjoyed watching the boys playing their violent video games, Angel wasn't one for a front row seat to real violence. In fact, they could feel their heart racing with anxiety. They had to get to a safe place, where they could calm down and not think about what their favorite streamers were doing. 

They didn't get very far when a familiar skeleton cut off their pathway to an empty shop. Angel struggled to stop before they ran into the skeleton. "Oh shit!"  "heh, you're right. oh shit is right." This AU's Sans wasn't happy at all. Instead of going after Killer, Dust, or Horror, this Sans came after them.  "got a question for ya, kid. you wanna have a bad time?" Angel tensed, but stood their ground. They straightened up their posture after having almost run right into Sans. They knew there was no lying their way out of this. It was Sans, after all. Hell, even if they told him the truth, Sans would still try to fight them. They were sure of it. 

"I'd rather not have a bad time- Shouldn't you be trying to help your monster friends?" Angel asked, yet was shocked when Sans didn't get angry with them, or at least more than what he already was with them.  "shouldn't you be helping your monster friends? where exactly did you four come from? i knew it wasn't a good idea to let those others stay."  "You mean Dream and the Star Sans'?" As soon as they said it, they regretted it. Stupid! Why did you say that?! Sans narrowed his eye sockets, his grin tightening with uneasy and distrust.  "you know them? are they a part of your team as well?" Angel thought about this for a moment, thoughts whizzing through their head as they thought their options over.  

"I know of them, but I've never met them before. Dream is not on their team-" Angel started to explain. Sans cut them off, immediately.  "whose team are you on? and don't think about lying to me, kid. i'll know if you are or not."  Angel felt nervous, but they would be okay. The boys said they'd keep them out of harm's way. They just needed to get away from Sans, or at least distract him.  

Killer's cackling echoed from the stage. Screams were heard, kids crying, and yelling as some humans and monsters fought against the Murder Time Trio.  Angel turned to watch them. They left the young children alone, but killed the parents. Angel's heart squeezed in heartache for the children.  The Ambassador would probably reset again, and judging by Sans' skull dripping with sweat, he didn't want that. Just thinking about it was making Angel regret their decision to help. This AU was finally getting to a happier chapter, and the Murder Trio swept in to tear away that peace. And worse of all, Angel had helped them with it.

Sans noticed the hesitation in Angel, the guilt and regret were written clearly on their expression. This AU's version of Sans was quick to summon a bone attack, aiming it right at Angel. An attack that was meant to strike down the enemy was wasted when Angel snapped out of their thoughts and dodged the sharpened bone. They stumbled on their feet and paused to look at Sans in shock, before they provided themselves a quick getaway;  "I wouldn't waste my time with me. You better go check on your brother, instead." 

This didn't help them in the least. Sans pretended to be relaxed, and unbothered at the idea of his brother being hurt. His grin grew tight from this intense situation. His eye lights were only white dots within his darkened eye sockets.  "my brother can take care of himself, kid. you should worry about yourself instead."  With this being said, Sans pulled Angel into an encounter. They hadn't thought about this happening, what if they weren't able to run away? What if Sans actually hurt them or worse? Angel took a deep breath, willing themselves to relax. 

"I don't want to fight you." Angel said, refusing to fight and instead tried to reason with him. Sans chuckles once it was his turn and attacks them again.  "sorry pal, i don't see eye to eye with you." He says, closing his right eye socket, while his left eye light ignited with his magic. Angel was able to dodge most of the bones sent their way, but got nicked in the arm a few times. Hissing in pain, Angel took a moment before they made their next move. Again, they refused to fight.  

"Please, just let me go, Sans. I don't want to fight you. Go protect your brother and everyone." Angel told him. Sans' grin tightened, his eye sockets narrowed. "i never told you my name, kid." Angel froze, their eyes widening once he pointed out their mistake. Shit.  Sans prepared his attack and sent a cascade of bones at them. This attack was harder to dodge, but Angel did their best to avoid getting too severely injured. They received several cuts, most were shallow. They knew they were going to be bruised up badly. One bone shot up from the ground and pierced through their left calf, tearing through skin and muscle. Angel cried out in pain as they fell to their knees once the bones disappeared. 

Angel had a hard time catching their breath, the pain made it hard for Angel to focus on Sans. It was their turn now... They raised their head, shaking from the pain, and looked Sans directly in his eye lights with a look of determination.  "I'm not going to fight you, Sans." 

"jeez, kid." Sans chuckled, sweat dripping from his skull, unnerved by the stubbornness and determination this human had. "what's your deal, kid?" He chose to not fight this round, unsure if that was the right decision or not. Angel sighed and finally was able to spare Sans. "I wasn't lying when I told you that I didn't want to fight." Sans stuffed his hands into his jacket pockets, feeling uneasy about letting the human go.  "I just don't understand you, kid." Sans sighs as his shoulders drop from the tension before walking over to the human and reaching out a skeletal hand to help them up. 

"Hey." 

Sans and the human jolted at the dark and murderous voice and looked over to see Dust standing nearby with his Gaster Blaster preparing for an attack.  "Don't touch them." Angel bit back a scream, afraid that they'd be hit by Dust's attack. However, Sans had teleported away, only for Dust to already be two steps ahead of him. His Gaster Blaster shot the energy beam, decimating this AU's version of himself. 

"Oh shit, Angel!" Killer was suddenly beside them, helping them to stand up.  "That's a nasty wound there." The human released a heavy sigh, letting the tension fall from their shoulders.  "It hurts like hell." They were still bleeding, but they were glad to see that Sans had missed hitting an artery. "Oh man, little one." Horror grumbles as he finally joins the two skeletons. He gave them a worried look, from their injured body to their contorted painful expression. "You alright? Lookin' pretty beat up there."  The human nods.  "You can say that again.. But, I think I'm alright. I just need to be taken to a hospital-" 

"We can't do that, Angel. Thankfully! We have Cross! He knows a little about healing humans. Come on, let's get you back to the house." Killer said and gestured for Horror to pick them up. They yelped when they weren't quite prepared to be moved so suddenly, but relaxed in Horror's arms. "Don't worry, little one! I'll be gentle with ya. Good ole Cross will take care of you when we get back." Angel peered over his shoulder to see piles of dust and humans laying around. "You're all finished..?" They asked, feeling a little sick to their stomach.  "Yeah," Dust responded first, his gaze fixed on the pile of dust from this AU's Sans, before turning to look at the human.  "Sorry for not getting here sooner."  The human slowly blinked before offering Dust a smile.  "Don't worry, Dust. You made it over just in time. Thank you." Dust hummed as he looked away.  

"Okay, seriously guys. Let's get our human home." Killer said, as he prepared for all of them to teleport home. He squeezed Dust's hand a little too tightly, letting Dust know that he was upset that the human was still showing favoritism towards Dust rather than Killer.  Dust glanced over at Killer and grinned slyly.  "They still like me better."  "Ugh! Shut the fuck up, Dust!" Killer snarled as they teleported out of the AU. 

---

"What did you guys do to them?" Cross asked, sounding exasperated as he looked over the human's injuries. They sat on the counter yet again, where Cross carefully looked at the injuries.  "Dude! They fought a Sans, and won!" Killer exclaimed with his usual excitement.  "Can you fucking believe it?! This amazing human fought another version of us and won!" He grins at Angel, nudging their side.  Angel jolted from the bit of pain that came from his elbow pressing against their sore side. Yet, they laughed softly and felt their face flush from receiving such praise.  "I actually thought I was going to die." "But, you didn't!" Killer's voice raised as he hyped them up. He suddenly turned towards his camera, his audience finally back to see the aftermath of the mission.  "Did you hear that?! Angel fought against a Sans and won!" 

Cross simply ignored Killer's excitable energetic self while he carefully rolled up the human's pant leg to get a better look at their wound.  "This doesn't look too bad, but we do need to clean it. I don't think the Boss has anything for that, so I'll go grab some supplies from the store." He glanced up at the human, looking perfectly serious, just how he always did.  "Stay put, I'll be back." Angel nodded and blinked a few times when Cross suddenly disappeared from sight. 

Killer was busy talking to his audience, explaining to them how the mission went and the aftermath of his human's fight with that AU's Sans. Horror was busy cooking up some food, claiming that the monster magic will help with Angel's healing. Dust was already sprawled out on one of the sofas and snoring. Angel heard a noise and glanced over to see Nightmare slipping out of the shadows of the hallway and walked into the kitchen, his expression contorted to one of disgust.  

"What the hell happened to the human?"

"Boss, Boss!" Killer spun around so quickly, Angel wondered if he gave himself whiplash. Did skeletons get whiplash? Hm, I wonder.  "Angel fought a Sans and they won!"  "Who the fuck is Angel?" Nightmare sneered, glaring at the energetic Killer.  "Silly! It's our human here!" Nightmare's gaze left Killer to look at Angel.  "Oh, uh. Good job." Nightmare pat their head, before noticing the nasty wound on their leg.  "Why are you letting them bleed out in my kitchen?" Killer chuckled before turning to grab another towel to lay under Angel's leg. "This isn't really your kitchen, boss. Remember? It's CJ's." Nightmare sent a half-hearted glare to the annoying skeleton.  "I don't care, you're allowing blood to containment the area where we cook." He then glanced over at Horror and narrowed his eye socket at him. "I'm surprised you're not getting upset with Killer for this." 

"Hmm~ Huh? Oh, yeah. It's not sanitary to have blood near the food- but, it's okay, Night. We'll clean everything up!" Horror said before going back to humming while he finished up the little snack he was making for everyone. "Oh! Annnd~ Here we go!" He used his magic to summon the plates and silverware, placing the food on each plate before sending them to Killer, Angel, and Dust. Killer caught his plate, his food shifting a little from the impact. Angel gently took their plate and thanked Horror with a smile. Dust's plate fell on top of his face, smashing against him before falling onto the floor and spilling all of the food. Dust snorted and sat up, looking around. "Who the fuck did that?!" He snarled, angry that he was awoken from his nap. "Aw, Dusty Rusty Mus-" Horror began to say, pouting a little from his delicious food being wasted.  "Finish that fucking name and I'll murder you." Dust threatened, his eye sockets narrowing as his eye lights went out. 

Horror only laughed and took that as a challenge, his good eye socket narrowing as well.  "Dusty Rusty Musty Poo~" Dust off the sofa in a split second, his Gaster Blaster summoned and ready to blast Horror away.  Nightmare sighed in annoyance and sent his tentacles to grab Dust and pull him away. "No fighting in the house!" Dust sputtered as he freed an arm and pointed accusingly at Horror, who stood in place, giggling and happily chewing on his food. "Horror started it! What the fuck!" "Yeah? Well, I'm going to finish it!" Nightmare raised his voice, threateningly. Dust sputtered a moment longer before giving up and fell limp in Nightmare's hold. Pleased with this, Nightmare dropped Dust onto the floor, where Dust just laid and pulled his hood over his head even more. A clear message to not mess with him any longer. 

"Okay," Cross appeared again, his arms full of human bandages and cleaning liquids. He dumped them on the counter beside the human.  "Just so you know, this is going to hurt." Cross warned Angel, before he acknowledged Nightmare. "Oh, hi, Boss."  "You didn't tell me you were back." Nightmare grumbled and crossed his arms.  Cross frowned and tried to hide his face in his scarf.  "I forgot..." Nightmare sighed as he pinched his nasal ridge. "Ugh, just don't let it happen again." Cross nodded as he got busy cleaning the human's wound. "Yes sir." 

Cross began to work on cleaning around the wound before carefully cleaning the wound itself. Angel hissed from the pain, but managed to sit still for Cross to finish.  The silly goofball of a skeleton known as Killer provided them with a distraction as he suddenly appeared beside Cross, his chin hovering just above Cross' shoulder.  "What're you doing, Crossy?" Killer asked in his gravelly voice. This surprised Cross, making him almost hurt the human. He glared at Killer before shoving him back.  "I'm taking care of your human. Why did you let them get involved in the mission? What would have happened if they died?"  Killer laughed. "Oh, Crossy~ I knew the human was going to be okay. But, that's not important. What is, is where you have been all morning! I wanna know!" 

Cross leveled a look at Killer from over his shoulder, before going back to fixing up the human's calf.  "Boss gave me a solo mission. It's none of your business." Killer grinned, yet it didn't reach his eyes- in fact, his bone brow twitched from the irritation Cross was causing.  "Aw, come on, Crossy~"  Nightmare's heavy sigh hardly caught Killer's attention, as always; Cross and Angel glanced over at Nightmare, watching him struggle with trying to remain calm from Killer's antics. "I gave him the solo mission because I knew you fuck ups wouldn't be able to complete it!" Nightmare growled, glaring at Killer and Horror- Dust was still on the floor, snoozing.  "Wait, what?" Horror asked, sounding a bit crestfallen. "Hey, that was really mean, Boss!" Killer playfully pouted, moving over to lean closer to Boss. "We didn't fuck up this last mission! We did exactly what you asked!" Angel frowned, their eyebrow raising in curiosity. "Nightmare wanted you to kill everyone?" 

Nightmare glared at Killer, his tentacles whipping from his irritation.  "We didn't kill everyone! Just the nobodies!" Killer explained, grinning at his Boss.  "If I find out that you idiots caused another reset in that AU, I'm killing you." Angel felt bad for saying anything-  "You're not really going to kill them, are you?"  Nightmare turned his glare at Angel. "No." He grumbled.  "I'm just going to beat the crap out of them." "Haha! I knew you cared, Boss!" Killer laughed, before he was suddenly tossed out of the kitchen by one of Nightmare's tentacles. "Whooa!"  

Horror snickered and started to make more food. After all, Dust had wasted his food- even though it was somewhat his fault. Besides! He was still hungry! Oh! And don't forget about the human! They needed enough magic to help that wound and their sore body! 

"There," Cross said as he finished wrapping their wound. He straightened up and offered a small smile to Angel.  "It's not perfect, but you'll be fine." Angel smiled as they finished their snack. "Thanks a lot, Cross! I appreciate it!"  Cross' face glowed from his purple blush, and he mumbled an embarrassed and quiet, "You're welcome." He hesitated for a moment before turning away and leaving to go spend his free time elsewhere. 

"I hope you've had fun, human. It's time for you to go home." Nightmare said as he stepped closer and gave them a small glare. Angel smiled at him, which perplexed him. They should fear him! Or at the very least be uncomfortable around him.  "I suppose I am ready to go home. Thank you for letting me come hang out with your boys. It was a lot of fun, even though I ended up hurt on a few occasions." 

"What?!" Killer was suddenly in the kitchen, pouting at his boss. "Come on, Nightmare! Please, please, please don't send them home, yet!" Nightmare turned to face Killer and frowned at him. "I'm not sending them home; you're going to take them home. Take Horror and Dust with you." Killer perked up, excited to see which AU his favorite human fan lived. "Wait, really?!" He turned to grin at Angel, Horror and Dust having turned their attention towards the human. "Hear that, Angel? We're taking you home! I hope you're ready for me to see where you live! Heheh~ I just might stalk you, too!" He laughed. Angel was excited, yet nervous. They lived with their friend, and they were sure their roommate was home. "I can't wait." Angel said and smiled nervously.

This might end up in a disaster...
