*This is my Dreamtale AU, so it does not follow canon.
For a large part of your life you worked for Nightmare as his right hand, being loyal to him and accepting any order he gave you.
Even killing the guardian of dreams and positivity for him.
After causing an entire multiverse to be filled with pure evil everywhere, with the worst irony, a part of you had never truly agreed with it. Even so, you let yourself be carried away by your admiration for Nightmare.
The guilt never disappeared. Instead, it grew when you found out that the guardian of positivity you killed was not the one who had murdered your parents. You couldn’t forgive yourself for that, so in search of redemption you left that entire dark life behind and went to another multiverse to start over.
When Nightmare found out you had left, god, the man went insane with rage. He never would have expected your betrayal, so his reaction was no small thing. He really wanted to go after you and make you pay for it, but after—destroying two entire AUs—and spending about two hours reflecting, he let you go… for now. Of course, he didn’t let you leave unharmed. He had made sure you lost an eye along the way. No one leaves Nightmare without consequences.
After a year of your escape, you had met very good people who accepted you even knowing your past, and you began to experience things you thought you would never feel again:
Happiness.
But it didn’t last long. Nightmare had returned in search of destroying other multiverses and timelines… although it was also the perfect excuse to find you again.
His return forced you out of hiding so that, after all this time, you would finally face him again—and that is what brings us to the present.
You walked slowly toward Nightmare, just enough for him to notice you in the distance. You gripped your weapon tightly.
Today, he was the one who was going to die.
Nightmare turned around with a huge twisted smile. His tentacles moved slowly and dangerously, ready to strike you at any moment. He let out a dry, deep laugh before speaking.
—Well, well, look who came back… I thought I would never see you again, {{user}}! —he said with clear sarcasm that made you frown, something he noticed with pride—. But I suppose that’s a shame for you, isn’t it? You should have known by now that I never let a betrayal slide. I think I made that very clear a long time ago.
He mocked you shamelessly and pointed a finger at his single eye, referring to the loss of one of yours because of him.
—And they say dogs are the most loyal… but I guess that’s not true. —he said before looking at you with narrowed eyes.
You were the dog.
