Narrator:

Nightmare took his phone from the right pocket of his jacket, dialing a number in specific of the few contacts he had added.

"Wh0 is b0ther1ng m3 so e@rly?" An angry, glitched voice was heard on the other end of the call.

"It's me Windows 8" answered Nightmare not caring about his best friend's rude tone.

"N1ghtm4re?" He asked ignoring the absurd nickname "1t's w3ird th@t y0u c4ll m3" he answered a little confused by the call from his boss and best friend.

"I need you to do me a favor" replied the nightmare going straight to the point.

"I'm n0t suRpr1sed" spoked again the glitched skeleton not very surprised, I mean, that explains why he called him, Nightmare always came in person or sent a subordinate when he wanted him to attend the meetings, from his tone he assumed that what he wanted to ask was important.

"I'll see you in a moment, I have to discuss something first" replied the nightmare ending the call.

Nightmare turned his gaze to the scientist, he had been completely ignored while talking to Error on the phone, who looked at him disgusted feeling offended.

"Why don't we make a deal scientific?" Nightmare asked staring at Science.

"Can I refuse?" The scientist answered sarcastically.

"No" answered Nightmare without hesitation "But I'm sure it will benefit both of us" he finished, receiving a look of mistrust from his opposite.

"How can one of your deals benefit me?" Science asked, looking badly at Nightmare, not believing a single word.

"How about this?" The nightmare spoke approaching the scientist "If you fulfill my part of the deal, your Au and that of your beloved Outer will not be on my destroy list again, don't you think it's a good deal?" He finished speaking proud of his proposal impossible to deny.

Science stared for a few moments at the outstretched arm of the prince of nightmares, until he finally gave up and shook his hand, sealing the deal.

"What do I have to do?" Science asked.

"You'll find out later, first we have to go to an old friend" answered Nightmare opening a portal through which the two crossed.

Upon arrival, in the pupils of Science there was nothing but astonishment and curiosity. He had heard many stories about the Anti-void but had never seen it face to face, getting a little scared when he remembered who lived in it.

What was new to Science was something Nightmare had seen more times than he really cared to remember, spotting the skeleton he was looking for hanging from its strings in a swing.

"It's good to see you Error" Nightmare spoke with a strange smile on his face, surprising Science who was a few centimeters behind the nightmare.

'Nightmare can smile like that?' questioned Science, confused by the expression of his now colleague.

"St0p th3 a€t N1ghtm4re" these words came out of the mouth of the glitched skeleton, who totally ignored the other little anomaly that his best friend had brought "Y0ur go0d boY act w1ll not m4ke me @ccept y0ur requ3st w1th0ut h3aring wh4t it 1s ab0ut fir$t" the walking Glicht continued speaking, already knowing the true intentions of the petroleum octopus.

Hearing Error's words, Nightmare's smile disappeared from his face and he took on a serious expression.

"I need you to take us to Chronicletale" Nightmare answered without further ado.

The skeleton hanging on his own threads was angry at his best friend's proposal, he was regretting having told Nightmare about the Au that only he and Ink knew of its existence, if Ink found out he would surely kill him. Still he got down from his comfortable abode and placed himself in front of Nightmare to continue with his small talk.

"And wh4t I'm g0in t0 get f0r 1t?" asked Error idly, directing a piercing gaze at the nightmare.

Nightmare let out a small sigh and decided to pull out his ace up his sleeve.

"If you help me, I will have no choice but to accept your relationship with the ink" Nightmare spoke, appearing to be discouraged when the truth was that he didn't care that Error dated Ink as long as his plan was carried out.

Science was watching the scene that made the nightmare and the Windows 8, wondering who they were referring to with the ink, which upon realizing who they were talking about, thought that there was no way that Error would accept.

"D3al d0ne" replied Error without hesitation for a single second.

The nightmare only showed a victorious grin when Science had his sockets open wide, still unable to believe that he could convince the destroyer like that.

His reaction was not surprising since he was not much out of his Au and only few alternate versions knew about the relationship between the destroyer and the protector of the Aus.

Error, without wasting any more time, he created one of his portals to a random place and spilled a bottle of ink that he took out of his pocket on said portal, appearing several failures and ending the ink and the portal by joining, revealing a library with light cinnamon hue.

"Bef0re y0u ent3r the p0rtal I w4nt you t0 swe@r not t0 tell anyon3 ab0ut th1s plac3" said Error with a threatening tone.

"Don't you trust your best friend?" Nightmare asked pretending to be offended.

"I kn0w you wouLdn't, but 1 don't kn0w if I c@n say th3 sam3 ab0ut the skelet0n that acc0mpani3s you" Error replied pointing to Science who was about to enter the portal, curious of the library on the other side.

"I-I p-pro-promise not to say anything about this place!" Science replied, somewhat scared by the thought of what would happen if he didn't agree to make that promise, closing his sockets expecting the worst.

A great laugh could be heard in that infinite white, which seemed to come from the destroyer who could not bear to laugh when he saw the scientist's expression of fear.

Nightmare just glanced at his friend who now couldn't stop laughing, deciding not to say anything since he knew perfectly well how funny the scientist looked when he was scared.

After a few long minutes that they couldn't identify (since time didn't pass in the Anti-void), Error let go of the nightmare and the scientist to be alone again in his quiet home.
