Transcending Time

A Cream and Nightkiller fanfiction Part 1

TW: violence/ angst

“Dream!!” The royal guard shrieked as he observed the person he loved be impaled.

“Cross..” The prince managed to croak as marrow spilled from his fresh wound.

Consumed by wrath Cross bolted forward dealing a fatal blow to the guilty party. Their lifeless body hit the floor with a thud. The prince weakened by the injury stumbled forward. The royal guard gently caught the falling skeleton and gently assisted them to the floor.

The royal guard gently cradled Dream he bit his lips attempting to hold back sobs.

“Heh.. what’s wrong Cross..? It’s not like you to make that expression..” Dream weakly smiler while breathing heavily.

“Don’t waste your time talking.. we can... we can still heal you..” Cross felt tears start to burn at the edge of his sockets. Why was this happening? It wasn’t supposed to end this way. He hadn’t even confessed his feelings yet.

Dream shook his head taking another shaky breath. “No.. it’s too late.. you know.. I’m glad I met you Cross-“ The golden eyed skeleton has a violently coughed out some marrow-tinged sputum. “You made.. life... worth living...”

“Dream..” the royal guard sobbed tears streaming down his face and landing on the smaller skeleton in front of him. “Don’t... you can’t go...”

Dream’s bottom lip began to quiver as he choked back tears as his feet slowly faded into dust. “Tell me... do you believe.. we can... be reborn..?” Another violent coughing spell causing the small skeleton to breath shallow and rapid.

“I don’t see why not..” The taller skeleton barely whispered in an attempt to keep his voice from cracking.

Dream smiled weakly fresh tears staining his cheeks. “I think.. we can be.. I would hope to be reborn.. so we could meet again.. maybe then..” Dream drew in a shaky breath. It was becoming increasingly difficult to breathe. He felt so tired and all he wanted to do was sleep. “I could.. tell you.. the things I couldn’t now..”

By now his legs had vanished Cross bawled knowing the inevitable fate of his beloved. “Dream..” The guard gently took the prince’s hand up bringing it up to his mouth. He placed a gentle kiss on the outside of the delicate hand. “I love you.. I’ll follow you to the ends of the earth..”

Dream’s sockets went dark. How could fate be so cruel to him. He began bawling he too reciprocated the others feelings. Yet, he didn’t have the nerve to tell the sobbing skeleton in front of him. He couldn’t cause the other more suffering.

“Cross.. promise me... promise me you won’t follow me... try to live.. “ The prince could feel his shortening lifespan decrease each second.

“You know I can’t-“

“Please!.. please.. try...” The smaller skeleton pleaded. Urgency audible in his hoarse voice.

With a pained expression Cross closed his eyes pulling what was left of Dream into a tight embrace. “I.. I’ll try...”

“Thank you... we’ll meet again.. Cross... I promise...”

After those last few words Dream faded into dust leaving only the clothing and the prince’s crown behind. Grasping at the air Cross cursed at the sky. He clenched the clothing and headpiece agonizing over his love’s death.

Cross wept until he couldn’t produce anymore tears. He gently folded the clothes and placed the headpiece on top. He felt numb nothing mattered anymore his sole purpose for existing had now vanished. However those last few words Dream said rang inside his head. “This is why I hate making promises.”

~~~

On the other side of the castle another royal guard along with the second prince attempted to escape. Chaos plagued the castle as greedy noblemen tried to overthrow the twin princes. It had become difficult to trust anyone inside these walls. Fortunately Nightmare knew he could trust his loyal guard, Killer.

“We have to get you out of here..” the guard huffed.

“What about, Dream?” The prince asked gasping for breath.

“Cross will find him! My priority is getting you out safely! You must survive, your majesty!”

Nightmare clenched at his chest. Something from wrong.. he felt that he’d lost something important but he didn’t know what. He wished that his brother was safe.

They’d managed to escape the castle using a secret escape route. Unfortunately they were met with enemy soldiers.

“You fools! This is treason!” Killer cursed at the guards. He pulled out his sword prepared to lay down his life for the prince.

“Hah, it can’t be treason if the prince dies!”

“Curse you..” Killer shielded Nightmare with his body a bead of sweat dripping on the side of his skull. “Your highness.. Nightmare.. as soon I charge I want you to run away... try to find Cross.. hopefully he found your brother and you can escape safely.”

“No I can’t leave you, Killer!!” The small prince grasped the other desperately. He felt if he let go he’d definitely never see him again.

At that moment several soldiers lunged forward most of their attacks aimed at the prince.

“Damn it.. Nightmare run!” Killer charged at the soldiers managing to injure a multitude of them. However, clearly outnumbered he was pinned to the ground with a foot on his back. He gasped for air as they slammed their foot onto his back keeping him from breathing properly.

“Don’t hurt him!” Nightmare lunged forward to aide his beaten guard. However, before he reached Killer he was shoved to the ground.

“Nightmare!!!” Killer cried desperately powerless to save the person in front of him.

“Tsk, Kill him already!”

Killer’s eyes widened horrified at the scene he witnessed. Nightmare who was struggling on the ground had been stabbed through in the back piercing his soul.

Nightmare let out a blood curdling scream. He gasped for air as he desperately clung to the last few minutes of life. He glanced at Killer giving an apologetic smile “I’m sorry...”

“Why are you sorry! I should..” tears swelled up in his sockets. “I should apologize! I failed you!!”

“Awe isn’t this sweet? You can watch your lover vanish before your very eyes!”

What a cruel joke life had played for them. All the twins wanted was to have a normal life. They wished to confess their feelings to their loved ones in hopes their feelings reciprocated.

Nightmare began to dust away continuing to smile at the skeleton in front of him. “I..” Nightmare croaked his voice soft and weak, tears burning at the edge of his sockets. “I really wanted... to.. tell you something...”

The guards vision became blurry as the tears impaired his vision. “What is it.. tell me, Nightmare..”

Shaking his head Nightmare drew a shaky breath while smiling weakly. “No.. that would be too cruel..” Over half his body had dusted at this point.

“How sweet of you two. Well there’s no point in sticking around the prince will die inevitably.” The soldier snickered as he motioned for the rest to follow him.

Killer crawled over to Nightmare. He was audibly sobbing. It couldn’t be real could it? How could he have failed so miserably at protecting someone.

“We’ll see.. each other again someday, Killer.. don’t worry...” the prince quietly sobbed as he felt death approaching. “If I’m reborn.. I hope.. we’re reborn together..”

Killer couldn’t respond as the lump in his throat grew. He cursed at himself for the tears that wouldn’t stop flowing.

“Killer... you... made me extremely happy.. don’t.. blame yourself...” The prince gently cupped the others cheek giving one final smile before he completely dusted away.

Killer clutched at the vanishing hand tears flooding his vision when it escaped from his grasp. Nightmare didn’t deserve to die that tragic death. He’d done nothing wrong. All because some noblemen wanted more power and money.

“Finally he’s dead.” A soldier sneered approaching the devastated guard.

Those words caused something to snap inside of Killer. In an instance he rose from the ground and dusted the soldier in front of him. His eyes were void of emotion, he only had one goal in mind. Avenge the love of his life, Nightmare.

So I have to say this chapter hurt to write. I know I said the first week of October but it’s basically here! So there’s a reason Cross’ and Killer’s names are crossed out. I hope it makes sense later in the story. Anyway thanks for being patient!! I really hope you guys like this chapter.

Cross belongs to @jakei95

Killer belongs to @rahafwabas

Dream and Nightmare belong to @jokublog

Sharing with @zu-is-here because I did get inspiration from their page! It’s sorta based on the idea that someone mentioned how a soul could be reborn after a certain amount of time!
