ErrorInk:To Be Enemies Or Not To Be Enemies

Chapter 16:Error!

"Blue, I'll have to call you back. I think I have company. I'll try to come as soon as I can. Im currently at OuterTale."I tell him

"Okay, be careful!"Blue says

"Blue, when haven't I been careful?"I ask sarcastically

"Well-"Blue begins

I hang up. He needs to learn sarcasm. I pick up my brush and look around. It was quiet but I heard a portal shut. I ease myself closer to the noise and soon see Killer there. I watched but didn't dare show myself.

"Stupid Nightmare. Making me search for Ink...and Error. Eh, that means I can get revenge on that glitch for tossing me out. Maybe I'll kill him and Ink for real this time! Oh, the look on his face! So satisfying!"I hear Killer say

That got me. I sprang out from behind some rock and whacked Killer with my brush, snapping and he was quickly chained.

"I don't think so."I tell him

I open a portal and kick him through it. As soon as I closed it, I hear another open. You've got to be kidding me. I then got a call from Dust. I pick up and answer.

"Hello?"I say

"Ink! Be careful! Error overheard the end of your call and panicked! He has left the building! Okay? We don't know where he went!"Dust shouts

"What? Oh dear. Ok. I'll keep an eye socket out for him. Check the anti-void. Approach him calmly, if he sees any of you panicking, he will just panic more."I tell him

"Got it. Cya, Ink."Dust says

"Is tHat Ink? TeLl hIm tHat I hOpe hE's oK! ERror explaInEd eVerYtHiNg!"E!Pap says in the background

"Ya heard him."Dust says

"It's ok. I just hope Error is. I gotta go, ok? Bye!"I state

"K. Bye!"Dust says, hanging up.

I look around and hear a portal shut. I ease myself around, worried that it's another member of the gang. I hear footsteps from behind me and freeze. I quicken my pace and then dip behind a boulder.

I peek out but I don't see anyone. I was confused. But then I feel something grab me by my wrists and yank me through the air. I shut my eyes and tighten my grip on the brush, prepared to fight if I must. I feel my feet softly touch the ground again. I keep my grip on the brush with one hand, while I felt for what's around my wrists with the other. I felt strings around my wrists. Could that mean?

"InKy?" A glitchy voice asks

I open my eyes to see Error standing there, bandaged but still showing some injuries like a crack in his skull. His eyes were wide with his eye lights small, yellow spread across his face, tears in his eyes. He was shaking and had a shocked expression on his face. He held one hand out to hold the strings while the other was tightly gripped on my scarf that he had put over his. I felt my face warm at the sight of him. I felt joy fill me. He was okay! I take some breathes, trying not to puke, and soon calmed down.

"It's me, Glitchy."I say

He yanks me close and I look up at him. He was crying. He wraps his arms around me and jumps when he was successful, as if not expecting to be able to feel me.

"B-But hOw? I...I bRoKe yOur sOuL! I-I'm SOrRy! I-I sAw yOu dIsaPPeAr! I...I....I'm haPpy to Be wIth yOu agaIN, buT I just DoN't uNdersTAnD hOw I aM."Error cries

"Heh, it's okay, Error! My bro forced me to have that soul. I didn't want it and I'm not used to having a soul. Right when the soul was gonna break, he pulled me out of there and I forced him to take it back. It worked. I'm used to being soulless and that's how I was made, so I didn't dust. I'm sorry I scared you like that! I'm so glad you're okay!"I explain, hugging him and wiping his tears after he unsummoned his strings.
