I am really sorry if the first part is sorta confusing ;w;

He, he's. That was what others used when they talked about it. However, it was not the pronouns it preferred. It was a It for it had no gender. However, it also like the pronouns we,they,their, us, and our. Those pronouns are about more than just one person... isn't that what it is? Even if one of the 'us' is dead, his body still exist so why can't it be called those pronouns instead? Oh, right. Because it's other guardian did not do his job and let the dedicated one die, the one that talked to it, asked it questions that it had answered and slept under its tree when he was abandoned by his own brother. So why should it use the pronouns we, they, their, us and our? Because it's goal is to honour the true guardians name. To let him be known and to do that, it would need to be him.

It would need to be Nightmare...

Cross's POV

"It's a beautiful day outside. Birds are singing, the flowers are blooming... on days like these, smiley trash bags like you...

SHOULD WAKE UP CAUSE IT'S FLUFFING 7PM IN DA FLIPPING MORNING" screeched a certain ghost demon as he tackled me non stop to wake me up, though it was futile as... well, he's a ghost. "Shut up Chara" I mumble, turning to face the wall away from the angered child. "WAKE UP CROSS!" Chara screeched much to my annoyance. "Fine" I groan before stumbling onto my feet. My normal routine normally went like this.

-Get woken up by my alarm clock (aka: Chara)

-Wake up

-Do everything else

And then the most important thing of the morning...

I opened the door and kept my unoccupied hand in front of me catching an incredibly rusty and sharp axe that had been thrown at me aiming for my skull by the handle.

-DON'T DIE

I sighed and threw the axe down the hall. I didn't bother to watch if it had hit my target but according to the yelp from a certain cannibal, it did. 2 inches away from Horror's skull with the handle tilting 45 degrees. Just like every time he tries to hit me. I looked down the hall to see two doors, each having many thin holes in them as if a certain object was jammed into the door multiple times. I silently stepped up to the door next to me and summoned my infamous giant steaming red knife, I made sure to take two deep breaths, I heard Horror hold his own breath. I listened carefully, the sounds from outside and inside bombarding me.

Rustling leaves

Tweeting birds

Screaming Chara

A shuffle from behind the door-

Without missing a heartbeat, I slammed the door opened with my knife in front of me acting as a shield, the sound of metal clashing into the knife echoing through the long hallway was heard instantly after I had opened the door before I brought my weapon back and kicked the attacker where the stomach should be and slammed him into the wall with the knife that had fallen to the floor placed not even an inch from his neck. We stood their, not moving except for his heavy breathing. "Ok I yield" he sighed before sliding down to the floor, his hood falling down showing his red eyelights. I was about to release him when I saw his eye lights flicker over my shoulder, so I did what Chara had taught me. I grabbed Dust by the shoulders (much to his protests) and flung him behind me where he had been looking at.

Cue roblox dying noises.... now. "OOF!" Cried two different people. Dust who I had thrown across the room and Killer who ... believe it or not had actually tried something different for once. I could hear Chara clapping in the background. "Dust. Try something different next time, you always use the same 'stab now think of plan later' and Killer... it was Dust who gave it away" I lectured while I walked out the room, what? Are you accusing me of purposely making the two argue? ... you're not wrong.

I walked past Doc who was holding his morning coffee which was incredibly surgery and had a blank expression on his skull. Until he saw me. We smiled warmly at each other along with a small greeting like "good morning" and "morning". We walked past each with no other interaction.

Well

I'm guessing you guys already know what's going to happen next?

Doc swung his feet under mine causing me to fall backwards, and since I was totally prepared for it... I didn't do anything and ended up with a sharp syringe positions over my eye socket.

"I yield" I 'calmly' say, watching the green liquid swirling in the syringe. Doc smiled and helped me back onto my feet. "OHHHHHH! CROSS YIELD! CROSS YIELD!" Screeched Horror who ended up having the syringe thrown at him instead. "I guess we will see each other soon" Doc stated calmly before walking towards Horror with another syringe. That Sci sans is crazy... like us.

We lived in a giant castle with who knows how many floor (20), and we just happened to live on level 4. Our leader however ... lived on level 20 which was a bother to me since my job was the one that had to go up to his room every morning to wake him up. Good thing was that we could teleport! ... but we never remember to...

So up the stairs I go!

Almost there

20!

And that's why I'm so he fittest person in the castle! Except for Nightmare and Error of course.

I walk down the long hallway. The entire floor was covered in greenery and was more of an indoor garden then an actual floor, heck, some of the plants are carnivorous and had once nearly eaten me....

Actually, that happened multiple times and each one of them ended with Nightmare telling the plants to stop attacking me. These days, they treated me like one of their own. They no longer attacked me and would usually give me their exotic fruits to save me from Horrors terrible cooking, the others don't know this though. They don't know what is on the 20th floor. Only Error, Nightmare, Doc and me know what is here. I travel through the forest of dangerous plants until I come across a lavender door with golden lining. This was the room no one was never allowed in. Why? Nightmare never told me and I respect his wishes, I just wished that he didn't make it so obvious that it was hiding something. Now that I think of it, the door isn't even here most of the time, sorta like how the grey door in waterfalls only appears when the fun value was set at 66. I turned left and continued to walk, avoiding the vines the claimed the walls.

Another door was hidden in the shadows, this one being the colour of the void. "Nightmare?" I whispered softly while knocking on the door, I waited for a bit before knocking again. "It's me, Cross. Horror, Killer and Dust is still failing the morning training but Killer actually learned to do something new this time." I paused, listening for any noise on the other side of the door. "Doc was able to beat me today. I though he wasn't going to join the training but he surprised me" I continued before falling silent.

"... report on yesterday" whispered a gentle but cold voice from the other side of the door. My eyelights lit up and I grinned but then it fell, "report... about Error?" I reply, hoping that the answer would be no. "...Yes. About Error"... This wasn't good, no one knew if Error was still alive after he.... attempted suicide.

"Cross?" Our leader asked again, his voice filled with worry. Ok, don't mess this up. "Well, you see... the strings are still up but we haven't seen or felt his aura at all. Horror watched Outertale again to look to see any movement in the void and Killer spyed on the Council. He reported that the Council thinks that Error is dead and is currently worried about the sudden destruction of multiple AUs" I answered truthfully. "The balance is tilting" I concluded, a little guilty that I couldn't make our leader happy. The silence from the other side of the black door didn't help either... then I heard the door unlock for the first time in months. "Lets go Cross. We need to make sure the balance doesn't tilt." Murmured the goop covered skeleton as he stalked towards the stairs, my shock didn't allow me to speak, only follow. "W-what?" I stuttered out nonsense while Chara sighed. "I'm going to go to the ghost club meeting with the other three ghosts in the castle. See ya" I didn't respond because I wasn't listening :).

I quickly followed Nightmare and that was how we ended up destroying over 20 AU's.... and that's also how horror, Dust and killer got cornered by the Star sanses.

Idiots
