200 years ago they were all still here. everyone. then the creators started to hate ink. error never found out why, but they did. they started losing faith in their aus, the aus disappearing. error thought he'd love seeing it happen. but he didn't.

eventually, they were left with the star sanses (ink, dream, and blue.), and the group error hung out with, the bad sanses (nightmare, error, cross, horror, dust, and killer.).

blue was forced to go back to his au by his brother.

dream went insane and left for another au.

and ink. oh.. ink. ink jut kind of.. disappeared. without a trace. gone.

the bad sanses found dream quickly, but error wanted to find ink. before ink disappeared, error had started to gain feelings for him, and damnit.. he didn't want him to be gone, no matter how much he assured himself he did.

PRESENT

they recently found a strange au. nightmare sent error and cross to examine it, sending error with a gun filled with tranquillzer darts and cross with a revolver. just in case.

it's nothing special, it is different though. instead of being a whole world, it's just a mountain with a large cave.

cross: "do we really have to-"

before cross could finish, error was already climbing.

cross grumbled and the two both started climbing. soon we reached the mouth of the cave and error noticed the feeling of my eye sockets widening.

in the cave were ink's vials, all of which were destroyed. on the wall were panicked writings. the the center of the cave was ink. he was sitting there, softly sobbing as he stared at a rock.

a rock fell and he got up and sprinted, before realizing it was a rock and awkwardly chuckling. a creator soon appeared in the cave, causing ink to jump. the creator leaned down and silently discussed something with ink, who seemed very pissed the same people he idolized kept him like this.

error wanted to free him. no, error needed to free him.
