Description
Undertale - Toby FoxArt / Nightmare - Me
Stop! You are not allowed to reuse my art in anyway!!
(Headcanons / Canons used: Monster and Human war, Monster's age when they have children -Or have parents- Found in Snowdin Library)
Some time ago...
People like to forget what happened before,
Before the barrier,
Before we were trapped down here,
I wish I could forget,
But I still have nightmares of it,
I guess that's kind of funny...
Nightmares...
Some kind of cruel irony to it if you ask me...
I don't like talking about it,
But you all seemed interested.
I suppose I would be "old" by your standards,
But monsters only age when they have a family,
It's strange.
But it's normal to us.
I was pretty young when it happened.
I must have been old enough, because I haven't really aged a day since the barrier went up.
My parents were killed, atleast I think they were.
I don't remember what they looked like.
And now, I couldn't care.
But, I survived.
Most of my life Underground was spent in Waterfall.
My name wasn't Nightmare then.
My name? It was a pretty name.
I was proud of that name...
What was it?
Heh, I wish I could tell you.
....
I can't remember...
Funny right?
I can't remember a lot now.
I just know I forgot a lot.
What was I talking about?
Oh yes...
Well, back on topic I suppose.
I wanted to be a royal guard I guess,
Or I was one?
Details...I don't care for.
It was a late night, by the Blook farm.
I was making idle chit chat with some now faceless monster.
And everything happened in slow motion.
A loud bang,
Dust scattering,
Falling forward with a scream as I try to figure out...
Pain...
Everything becomes a blur after that.
Strange how your life can be ruined in a minute.
A second...
A heartbeat...
I don't know how long I was out.
But I was close to "falling down"
But I refused...
A human.
They had fallen into the underground.
Careless to the damage they caused.
I was one of many hurt.
And one of the few who survived.
A toy gun they had,
or maybe it was real, I didn't have time to look...
The story was recounted to me by an old friend,
The monster I talked to had died,
Caught off guard and unable to defend themselves they turned to dust before anyone could help.
I rushed forward weapon or whatever raised,
I fought hard,
But...
They aimed it at my face...
and fired...
I fell to the ground, I wasn't ready to die.
I didn't want to die.
But...
Well...
It's not something I remember, no one saw what happened next.
I just...
Never turned to dust.
So when the human was captured...
They healed me.
I recovered.
...
Mostly.
I can't remember anything.
I hurt...
Things seem wrong...
I want to go home...
