My Insanity | Dream SMP x Reader

Creator of Chaos

A light breeze blew dust clouds into the infinite wasteland of sand. And then came a sound that caused me to spin around in surprise.

"Hey!" A voice said, accompanied by a light tap on my left shoulder. I pointed the sword towards the sound of the unfamiliar voice.

This man had almost unnaturally vibrant green eyes, brown hair, and wore golden apparel, clearly meant for the environment we were in. He had a black cape and hood, with a golden clasp to hold it together.

I gave him a sharp glare to urge him to get on with what he wants, or leave if he knows what's good for him.

"Uh, hi." He said, reaching up and using his hand to gently point the sword out of his way, to which I immediately moved it back to its original position.

"Okay then." He said. "Okay how should I say this. I'm not here to hurt you, I was just watching you because- well no, I wasn't watching you. Well you were sleeping but I thought-"

"You were watching me sleep?!" I asked. He smiled awkwardly and took a small step backward. I matched his actions and stepped closer.

"No, I wasn't. Well, I was just passing through and gathering some supplies for a project of mine, and saw you in a cave, and well- we thought you were dead."

"Well I most clearly am not dead." I said, lowering my sword slowly. "So if you don't mind, I'll be leavi- wait. Did you say 'we'?"

"R̴̨̈́e̶̲̅á̴̙l̸̩̉ ̶̗͋s̸̳̾m̴̫̀o̵͇̾ȯ̶̻t̸̞͠h̶̪͝ ̵̠͌F̶̳̎o̸̬̎o̷̫͒l̴̤͐i̵̢̕ṡ̶͍ḧ̶͚́." A voice said from behind me.

It sounded...eerily familiar. Like...

Dream.

I spun around and instinct and range got the best of me as I drove the sword blindly in the direction of Dream's voice. I felt the sword penetrate through him, and looked forward at the green and golden cloth I had penetrated.

The strange thing is he didn't react. I looked up and realized the person I had just put my sword through wasn't Dream. Hell, it looked like him. His face, his blond hair, and a mask too.

But his attire was composed of a nicer silk material, apart from the fact I had just pierced through several layers of it and to through the other side. A golden light surrounded his head, and almost appeared like a pair of halos. And he was much taller, easily beating Ranboo and BadBoyHalo.

He looked down at me, and although I couldn't see his full face, it was clearly with an expression of annoyance.

"Cute." He said. "Ŗ̶̕e̷̤͝ȁ̸̤l̴̠̚ ̴͎͘c̶̣͛ṵ̷̑t̴̗͂ę̶̿."

He grabbed my hand and I noticed how his hand lacked a normal amount of heat you'd get from a typical person, especially one spending their time out in the dessert. He retracted my hand away from him and the sword out of his torso.

I looked at the injured sight, and there was no sign of blood. His cloths were completely unstained.

"How did you- who are-?" I stammered, still confused by this man who so clearly looked like Dream but so obviously wasn't.

"I should ask you the same thing." The man who looked like Dream said, his voice returning to a less powerful and twisted tone, and tilting his head to the side curiously. "I don't know who you are. And I know ẹ̶̃v̴̲̈́e̵̮͛r̶̹̋y̵͕̾ŏ̸̖n̶͍͗ë̷̱́."

"Okay..." I said, finding that I was the one stepping back. I looked over to the other man, who now seemed normal in comparison.

He shrugged.

"Sorry. We're not the best at introductions." He said. "My name is Foolish, and that right there, is DreamXD."

That explained the XD shape engraved in his mask.

"So you are related to Dream?" I asked DreamXD.

"What? No!" DreamXD said, sounding insulted. "Why do people keep associating with a mortal who has sadistic attachment issues with a kid?"

"Tell me about it." I said.

DreamXD let out a defeated sigh, before looking up again. Suddenly, massive white wings emerged from his back, causing me to dodge out of the way to avoid being sent into space by the speed they emerged at.

He locked eyes on me, or rather, something on me. I looked down, attempting to follow his line of sight, although it was hard with the mask in the way. It was my ring, which now had massive cracks in it from years of damage and corruption.

He grabbed my hand aggressively, practically ripping the ring off.

"How did you do that?" I asked. "How'd you take it off? The only other person who's been able to separate it from me is Bad, who had help from the egg."

Foolish spoke up from beside me, as we watched DreamXD examine my ring.

"You should know," Foolish whispered. "He's kind of a god."

"A what?" I asked.

"You heard him." XD said without breaking eye contact with my ring. He admired it for a bit longer.

"Do you want me to explain what it does-?" I began to suggest.

"I created it. I know what it does." XD said. "I made it to help capture the souls of thousands of sadistic mortals who committed unspeakable acts. It wasn't meant to be worn by a mortal.
Ẇ̸̞ĥ̶̪o̵̡̎ made you do this?!"

"It's kind of...a family thing." I said. "My brother and I kind of took the thousands of tormented souls, and we'll, split the torment between the two of us. 'For the prosperity of the kingdom' and what not."

"Your brother, is Technoblade correct? Yes I know him. I can hear the screams that echo in his head. The same ones inside this ring." XD said. "The reason it grants you immortality is because the souls inside want the wearer to suffer the same torment for eternity with them."

Eternity huh?

I slowly pulled up my sleeve, seeing the one remaining mark signifying my one remaining life.

"No offense, but your ring might have a few design flaws." I said l.

DreamXD's head snapped up in surprise.

"Ẅ̷̞́h̵̲́ḁ̸̓t̶̝̚?̷̛̬" He asked. "My creations are perfect. Explain yourself."

I lifted my sleeve up and revealed my remaining tally mark.

XD threw the ring up in the air, and I watched as it slowed down and froze in midair. XD grabbed my arm, and pressed his thumb on my wrist, seemingly feeling my pulse.

"Interesting. Very interesting." XD said. "Tell me something Y/N, do you want to be immortal?"

I never asked for it, that's for sure.

But it wouldn't be so bad without the negative side effects.

"Is that a yes or no?" XD said, answering my thoughts. "The choice is yours."
