-Errors POV:

' What in the void is that?'

I jolted from my previous position and took a step back, whatever this THING is does not seem friendly. I'm not even quite sure it's another sentient being. Covered from head to toe in this thick black sludge stood a creature. It has the appearance of a skeleton much like myself ,aside from the obvious thick ooze, it has a blue near purple hue to what I suspect is there eye socket, and about 4 black appendages that seem to be sprouting out of there back.

I widened my stance, ready to move at any sudden movement, not quite trusting yet curious enough to stay, I clear my throat and dare to speak,

" wHø âRe yOű, æNď WħAț ǎRE ŷOu?"

It stops. And it stares. There tentacles stretch from there previous position now looming over this beings head, as if poised for attack. There eye narrows into what I suspect is there version of a glare, it honestly looks like there squinting to get a better look at me though, and this horrible gurgling sound begins to emit from this entity; it continues before they seem to clear there throat,

" Nightmare. That is what they call me. As for what I am, the king of nightmares and hatred will do."

' A KING. Huh. Self centered much.'

" What a pathetic view. What kind of pitiful creature are you? And where has your AU gone?"

I blink. What in the void is this self centered blob talking about. I shuffle backwards, as it continues to draw closer, careful of my footing I skid backwards to create more distance, I outstretch my arms and flick my wrist; summoning my blue strings. Blue strings pop in existence and create a barrier between me and nightmare.

" WħAť  äRe-ę YœŰ tĂľKîņG åBøŰT. tĦïŞ Ĩš tĦẽ VøīÐ. ÄŚ føR țħĨŚ A-ǎŰ PļÂçE, tħÂț DøêS ņOț ExïSť H-ħêŘe. i ăM tĦê ońŁý "PĩțIfúL" bÊïNĞ țHäT Hâş EvêR eXïşTeĎ HèRë. tHė ñAMě ïS ERřoR, ýØú SłíMý ŁoØķĪŅğ SqúID."

That name seems to have upset him. His tentacles twitch before shooting towards me, only to be held off by my strings, the tentacles get tangled between the strings as they attempt to push there way through my barrier. I flick my wrist once more and blue string erupts all around the asshole, wrapping around his arms and legs and chaining him in place. Shock filters through his face for a second before it's replaced with a scowl.

"You worthless bastard. Let go of me this instant. I will not be disrespected in such a manner. I will make you suffer for this"

" SüfFÊř? mÝ EńTïřÊ eXişțEñcE Hâś beêŅ NøtĦiNg bǓt sUfFêrIńG. I ĶñØw wĦát TřÚè  tôřMeNȚ iŚ. I a-âM ñOț aFřÃíD oF yøÚ oR yOúr SäÐ lIțTłe tĦrêAtŚ. "

I picked up the king using the strings and engulfed him in my strings, wrapping his body and tentacles into a cocoon. I then proceeded to use my strings to hang his cocoon from the blank ceiling of the anti-void and turned around to leave.

Better to leave him alone for now, I am unaware of what he is capable of and am not in the mood to find out either, if he somehow manages to escape and leave the better; I didn't think interacting with another sentient being would be so tedious and frustrating.

Are all the creatures outside the anti-void like this? Or just this so called king? Are there others like me? How many more living beings exist outside this meaning less void? What is this AU nightmare mentioned earlier? Is it just a place or a multitude of places? Ugh. How frustrating, so many question and no one to awnser them. I doubt the asshole would want to talk to me, much less respond honestly. Well at least the voices are gone for now.

" AS IF YOU COULD GET RID OF US SO EASILY"

" KEEP ON DREAMING GLITCH"

" We are apart of you. Or did you forget Error?"

" You will never get rid of us. It's too late for you glitch"

And I spoke to soon. Damn. It was decent while it lasted I suppose. Honestly surprised they were quiet for that long, I didn't think they COULD be quiet for THAT long. 

" I thought you said you were the only pathetic creature inhabiting this place. Why do I hear more voices aside from your own then?"

I startled, I forgot this guy was here for a second. I stop in my tracks and slowly turn around to get a good luck at him. He suspending mid air still stuck in my floating cocoon. He's once again glaring at me. I tilt my head slightly,

"YòǓ h-ĦêArĚd tHĀt? yØu cÄñ HêAŘ tĦe VõIçÊs aŚ wElL?"

"The voices? If you are referring to the people I just heard talk to you, then yes I can hear them. Although I can't see them, where are they coming from?"

The voices. This self centered squid can hear the voices. This is not supposed to be possible, I may have lost any semblance of my sanity a while ago, but it was to my understanding that only I would be able to listen to those damn yapping voices. Now unless the voices lied to me, which is completely possible, nightmare shouldn't have been able to hear them just now.

Unless.
