"Hey, everyone. Meet Yue."

Abyss said, as he introduced Yue, who had been given clothes.

And needless to say, what she is wearing really made her even more beautiful than ever before. And everyone seems to be stunned at the fact that there had been a vampire that had been stuck inside of a labyrinth. And yet, somehow, this one was inside of it. But based on the way she felt, it is obvious thad she must have been around for a very long time, perhaps decades, maybe even centuries. It is a miracle that Abyss had found her, otherwise, the other Dead Cells would have found her first, and she would have been eternal food for them.

Most of the people here seemed to have mixed opinions on Yue. It is either because that they have no idea if they can trust her, although they do pity her for being betrayed, and thus, their opinions are slightly more positive than mixed. However, there are some that stand out with not liking her at all. One of them happens to be Atla Fayon, and this is due to the fact that she is very possessive of Abyss, and she does not like the way that Yue is holding onto him. And she is not the only one. Ravel Phenex also does not like that a vampire of all things is holding onto Abyss' arm. But it seems that this Yue vampire is very clingy to him and will not let go. She seems to be very possessive of him, especially since Abyss had been able to save her life, and it seems like she owes it to him. But the others, they seem to be very welcoming to her, even Ganyu, who also seems to be very welcoming to her, as well as the fact that she is also the most kind and the most friendly one of the group.

Ganyu looks down at Yue, as she spoke out.

"Abyss, how did you find her? I mean, you never mentioned where you manage to find her, especially after what had happened to the outside world.

Abyss than looked down at Yue, who nodded her head, as he spoke out.

"Apparently, she was inside of a labyrinth that is close to Ebott City, somehow, and I ended up falling in, thanks to Alphys telling me about this place. Even I don't know how she manage to find such a place like this. I was navigating through the labyrinth in order to try and see what was going on, and than, I ended up encountering some monsters inside of that place, monsters that I have never seen before, as well as some of the Dead Cells that have fallen into this place. And during of this, I manage to find Yue in there, and she had been fused to stone, almost like a prison."

This made everyone stunned, as she spoke out.

"Prison? How long has she been in there?"

Abyss shrugged, as he spoke out.

"I don't know. Decades, maybe even centuries, which is a very long time for her. Er, not meaning to be offensive to you, Yue. Sorry if I sounded rude."

Yue simply stared with a slightly annoyed look on her face, apparently not liking what Abyss said and does not find that sort of fact very amusing, but tolerated it.

"It's fine. You were just being clear to your friends, that is all."

Abyss smacked his head, as he than spoke out to himself.

"I better think of some better choice of words, as well as some less brutal ones. Especially to someone that I had just saved back there."

Abyss than shook his head, as he than realized that someone is tugging at his arm, and he looks down at see that it is Atla Fayon, who is tugging onto his arm, and she looks very unhappy. This made Abyss spoke out to her.

"What's wrong?"

Before Atla Fayon could speak to Abyss, Yue saw her and questioned about her.

"Oh, and who might you be?"

Atla turned around and was about to speak back to her, and not in a friendly way, when Abyss spoke out before her.

"Oh, you mean Atla? She is someone I had recused back then a long time ago. And because of that, she really, really obsesses over me."

This made Yue looks at Alta, as she spoke out.

"Really? Seems like I have competition on being with the man that save done, just as he saved you."

This made Atla angry, as she spoke out.

"I don't care what you are, Yue. I do not care if you are 300 or even a thousand years older than me. I am not letting you take the one that I love from my arms."

This made Yue smiled, as she than leaned against Abyss and hugged one of his arms, as Atla hugged the other arm that Abyss had, as Atla snarled a little bit, while Abyss simony stood there, clearly annoyed at all of this, as he than spoke out to them.

"Do not use me like a rope in tug-of-war, okay? I'm not that strong, you know?"

But the 2 of them did not listen, as they stared at each other, although on the bright side, the 2 girls did not attempt to pull on his arms, and instead, just simply stared at each other. Abyss sighed, as he is not happy with this, when he felt his phone beginning to vibrate and ring and ring inside of his pocket. He than looked down, and used one of his scarves to carry it and pick it up, as he than answers it.

"Hello?"

Than, Alphys' voice spoke out from the phone.

"Sans, you're there. Good. I need you to come to me. I'm with Dream and I am seeing some improvement on his condition."

This surprised Abyss, but he than nodded his head, as he than spoke out to Alphys.

"Okay, I'll be on my way, as soon as I get out of this situation that I am in. I'll meet you there as fast as I can."

Abyss said, before he ended the call, as he then began to sigh, before he than spoke out.

"Hey, can the both of both let me go? I need to go somewhere else. Can you settle this later?"

But the 2 of them won't let them go, as Anyss was about to say something, but then, he felt his arms feel cold, as he than freed them, and saw that the 2 girls are now frozen solid. He looked and saw that both Ganyu and Yumi are responsible for this.

"It's okay, Abyss. They're going to be frozen solid Ikari you come back. You can go and do whatever you need to do."

Yumi said, as Ganyu spoke out.

"Of course. And...if it is not much of a bother, I would like to come along."

Abyss than spoke to Ganyu one what she wants bu that request.

"Fine."

Ganyu nodded, as she than goes next to Abyss, before Ravel went next to Abyss and spoke out.

"Here."

She than steps her foot forward, and a magic circle rose up and covered all 3 of them, as they all than went to the location Alphys is at.

When the magic circle rose up from the ground, Abyss, Ganyu, and Ravel are now at the location of where Alphys is at, and saw that Dream is present, as he now looks completely fine. Abyss than spoke out.

"Hey, Alphys, Dream. So, what you've been doing in checking out Dream?"

Alphys looks down at Abyss and spoke out.

"I have been studying his body, and it seems that it's grown strong enough to not be able to crack anymore."

This made Abyss smile, as he than spoke out.

"Well, at least that there is some good news, Dream. At least you will not be able to lose all the positivity that you had gathered throughout the consumption of the Golden Apples. But that reminds me, Alphys, how long will it take for his body to strengthen to his limit?"

Alphys than crossed her arms, as she struggles to think of an answer. Dream than looked down, as she than spoke out.

"It will take a week and three days in order to strengthen it to full toughness and strength. But even than, it will be an extremely difficult process, because of the concentration of Golden Apples inside of him, it will sort of hinder his process. But as long as he does not use his powers, he will be able to heal much more faster in our time and strengthen in no time. And gathering positivity will not work, for all it actually does is slow it down."

Dream looks and nodded his head, clearly not happy when he felt like he was was actually helping the process, even in reality, he is doing the opposite of what he wants. Abyss looked a little unhappy, realizing that Dream healing himself did not help matters. But he does say this.

"So, is that all he needs to do? No using his powers and all of that, and he will be able to increase his durability much more faster than before?"

Alphys nodded her head, as she than spoke out to him.

"Yes, he does, and not only that, he also should not move as much, which will also hinder the process. But luckily, since the Golden Apples within him are powering him, he will not grow weaker. So he won't be risk of being out of practice."

Abyss nodded his head, as he than turned to Dream, who than looks down at himself, before he than spoke out to Abyss.

"Well, at least I'll be able to eat more of them after I am done healing. And I..."

Dream looks down, as if to say, I am being so stupid, due to the expression on his face, before he than spoke out.

"I really should have listen to you, Abyss. I should not have used my healing on the small cracks that didn't leak out Positivity. I should have just left it alone, so that it would have gone away on its own. But instead, I made my time of needing to eat more of them even more longer than before, in order for me to be as strong as Nightmare. I'm very sorry that I did not listen to you."

Abyss looked at Dream and spoke out.

"Hey, don't be sorry. I didn't know that this was the case as well. So I'm, in a way, just as guilty. And also, is that insane part of you gone yet?l

Dream shook his head, as he than spoke out.

"No, but it is starting to go away on its own. And in fact, it simply just really pops out now and then. And when it does pop up, the feeling of it becomes less and less, almost as if it is turning into a whisper."

Abyss nodded his head, as he than spoke out.

"Well, perhaps in a few weeks, it will be completely gone. Who knows."

Dream also shrugged, as Abyss than spoke out.

"And hey. In the height, you at least have some new wings that will allow you to help you fly around. And perhaps even to give him kids a ride into the air."

This made Dream look at Abyss, as he felt that what Abyss said is very funny, clearly liking it. Even Ganyu and Ravel seems to like what Abyss said, as Alphys giggled at that, before Ganyu than spoke out.

"That reminds me. Dream, is there a group that always helps you?"

Dream than looks down and stroke his fingers onto his chin, as he than spoke out.

"Well, there is. But, I have not seen that group in a very long time. In fact, we...sort of, broke apart, due to a certain problem that I had with one of my teammates. Although we do still help each other at times, whenever we both have the chance."

Ganyu nodded her head, as she has a bit of red on her cheeks, while she also looked down a little bit, before Ravel than spoke out.

"But...but what if his brother comes before his body hardens up? Than what does Dream do?"

Dream looks down a little bit, before he than spoke out.

"Well, that depends. If he is alone, than I should be able to fight him off. But he has a group, than I'll need help, and depending on the days in when he's able to appear, if he appears to soon, then...I don't know what to do. But if he appears after my body hardens enough, or just a day before the process is complete, than i should be able to consume the Golden Apples in order to be able to make myself more stronger. And hopefully, it is those 2 days that I have mentioned, in which it will happen. I know that it will interrupt the process in a way, and may extend it, but as long as I become more powerful enough to the point that I am able to drive Nightmare away, than it is fine enough for me, even though I will have to wait it out even longer than ever before. It will still be worth it in the end."

Abyss looks at Dream and nodded, as he than spoke out.

"Well, I am gonna need to give the Golden Apples to you when I am forced to do it, especially since I am the one who hid them when you still have your craziness control you at times. So only when at one of those 2 days, I'm able to give them to you."

Dream nodded his head, as he than spoke out to him.

"That seems like a good idea. After all, I would rather not go crazy and use the apples way to soon, otherwise it would have caused a lot of problems for you, as well ad for the Multiverse and the rest of us.

Dream nodded his head, as he than looks down at his body and observes himself, as there ar snow cracks, and whine he does feel the craziness within him, it almost seems like it is gone, and about to disappear. Although it is gonna take a long time for it to disappear, as Abyss than spoke out.

"Hey, Alphys? If Dream's own magic does not work, is mine able to work."

This made Alphys confused, as she than spoke out.

"What do you mean?"

Ganyu than spoke out.

"When Abyss met Yasaka, and saw her condition, he once was able to conjure a ball made of magic, and he was able to the ball, which made her much more stronger than before."

This made Alphys perplexed, as she spoke out.

"Show me."

Abyss nodded, as he than opened his hand, and gathered energy above it. The circle on the palm of his hand begs to glow, as the energy gathered and condensed above it, and after he was done, the left scarf was gone, with the DNA Strand exposed, as Abyss sighed, before he than spoke out.

"Dream, take this. I want to see if this improves the recovery of your condition."

Dream does, as he held onto it, and when he did, he felt the energy go inside of him, and when it went inside of him, he felt different. He felt much more stronger than ever before, and his body feels like it is much more durable than it ever has been before. He looks down at himself, as Alphys began to run some tests and analysis on this sort of thing, and it surprised her.

"Wow, that is incredible! Sans, your Energy Cell is actually improving Dream's condition. His body is now able to harden a bit more quicker. Now it has been reduced to a day! Sans, how long does this last for?"

Abyss shrugged, as he than spoke out.

"I don't know. About 12 hours or so, I think it is what it is, but it drains a lot more faster when used in fights. And luckily for me...I should be able to go back to full power in just 1 hour, but that is all I can do.

This made Alphys smile, as she than spoke out.

"Than it is settled. We can use your Energy Cell in order to make Dream's body stronger continuously, and to make his condition improve faster!"

But Abyss raised his arms and spoke out.

"Woah, there, Alphys, don't take it to the extreme!"

And than, Dream chimed in.

"Yes, please don't do this to Abyss, okay? Besides, one day, I think it is enough for me."

Alphys looks at Dream and spoke out.

"Are you sure?"

Dream nodded his head.

"Really, and besides, I have a feeling that we will need that only when it is absolutely necessary, not abuse it for someone such as me, just to simply help me in this bad condition I'm in."

Alphys sighed, as she spoke out.

"Well, it you say so. And sorry, Abyss. I got very carried away there."

Abyss nodded his head, as he than spoke out to her.

"Don't worry. You were just excited, nothing more. And besides, there aren't any hard feelings at all."

Dream smiled, his bright eyes glowing golden like 2 miniature suns. Abyss than turned to Ravel, as he than spoke out.

"So, should we go back, Ravel?"

Ravel nodded her head, as she spoke out.

"Yeah, let's go back. Don't want Yue and Atla to mess up the house if they wake up from their icy sculpture nap."

Ravel than made a magic circle rise, as she than teleports herself, Abyss, and Ganyu to the house.

One week and a day later...

It has been more than one week, since Abyss had saved Yue from the labyrinth that she was trapped in. And so far, Yue is enjoying her time being back it in the surface again, and have many people nice to her. However, Atla has a fierce rivalry with Yue, due to the fact that she is being just as clingy to Abyss, similar to how clingy Atla is when it involves Abyss, due to both being saved by him. And due to the fact that Atla has been given a CELL Core, she is stronger than Yue in a physical sense. However, Yue surpasses Atla by the use of her magic and how experienced she is with her magic. Because of this, the fights tend to be a bit destructive, and Abyss has to make sure that the fights do not take place inside of the house. And even then, he needs to watch over them, and Kunou deciding to sit in his lap, in order to watch the fight. But regardless, Yue seems to absolutely like him.

Also, Dream's condition, just as Alphys said, had improved a lot, because his idiot had been confirmed to have become much more stronger then ever before. Although the power boost was temporary, thanks to that, it was able to quicken the toughening of Dream's body, although it went back to its normal speed, and thus, Dream's body is able to thankfully heal it much more faster.

But right now, Abyss is walkng, side-by-side with Ganyu. He does not know why she wants to come along with him, but he allows her to do it. Besides, he feels calm around her.

And she seem to be very happy that she's able to walk with him. And it is very odd for Abyss, because Abyss has seen her face starting to turn red, due to being in his presence, and he does not know why. But Abyss does not talk about it, as he and Ganyu are walking together.

Ganyu even has flowers in her hand, which she eats. And luckily, Abyss planted and grew them. She eats the pedals off of the flowers, as Abyss walked around, as he than spoke out.

"Huh. It sure seems a lot more calmer than ever before in Kyoto. Only wished that Yue and Atla would at least stop fighting over me. I don't want to see them wreck the entire house."

Ganyu smiled down at Abyss, as Abyss sighed, his hand on his face, and he does feel like he is getting stressed. As Abyss slowed down for a little bit, as he began to think about some stuff, Ganyu stopped walking, and walking right in front of him.

Ganyu than bent down as she looks at Abyss in the eyes. And Abyss blushed, due to how close she is, as well as how beautiful that she is before her eyes. He has no idea how to respond to her.

"Ganyu, what are you..?"

Ganyu than spoke out to Abyss.

"Sans...I...I have no idea how to say this but...when I first saw you...the moment that I had seen you..I knew that you would be...different, being someone that I never thought I had to be with. I had been with other in the past, and too me, they were the same. But you...you are different from the others. Different from the other people that I have met, especially when they come and go."

She than intertwined her fingers on Abyss' hand, as he began to blush at what it is that Ganyu is doing.

Ganyu blushes, but she locked hands with Abyss tightly, as she than began to speak out to him.

"Too be honest...you had took my soul when I kept being with you, the moment I've met you, you made my days much more happier when you are around. You are very special to me, and I don't know how I would feel this way without you."

This made Abyss blush, as he felt something heat you inside of him.

'Is this...what I think it is?'

As Ganyu looked at Abyss, a familiar voice spoke out.

"Well, isn't this cute, seeing you along with that woman, Cell."

This made Abyss flinched, as Ganyu turns around, and shows that Nightmare has appeared again.

Ganyu turned around, as she charged her arrow up, and points it at Nightmare.

Abyss flinched, as he than spoke out.

"You, how dare you come and invade my Universe, Nightmare?! You are not wanted here!!"

Nightmare spoke out, with a sinister grin of his face.

"Oh I do. You have something that I want, Abyss...and I want to have it, especially when you have Dream right by your side."
