Chapter Text
Sapnap was tired of this. After Dream and George started dating, he was slowly being left out. He can’t remember the last time he wasn’t left out. He was just the third wheel to the group.
They had even started going on adventures without him. When one of them were gone, he finally had someone to talk to. It was rare, but he still talked to Dream more than George.
After a long time, they finally did an adventure together. But something like that was too good to be true. Sapnap was forgotten again while George looked for dungeons and Dream looked for some more iron. He decided to talk to George, because he never had the time to.
”George-“
”Look Dream! I found a dungeon that wasn’t explored yet!”
Of course he couldn’t talk to any of them. What is there to do when the only people you can talk to ignore you?
He turned around but Dream noticed.
”Sapnap, come back.” Dream spoke with a voice that made him feel unwanted.
”We noticed that you barely talked to us. Why?”
“W-well you two were so busy with eachother that-“
”Sapnap we would never leave you!” George sounded like he was lying.
It felt so... wrong to talk to them. It was probably because they ignored him all the time. The only reason they ignored him was because they were dating. He didn’t want to bother them, so he stayed silent. Of course, they didn’t seem to care.
After a long trip, they were finally home. They got a lot of loot from the dungeon. George found a third saddle, but he left it because he thought they wouldn’t need a third horse.
Now Sapnap knew his friends would leave him out.
He would usually go in the forest, mostly at night. The darker part wasn’t exactly safe, so he never explored there.
But it was one day, he got curious. He heard that it was unexplored, so he wanted to be the first person to go.
____________________
The dark feeling, his gut was telling him to go back. Being adventurous, he still went to explore it.
The only light source was the torch in his hand. He had a bad feeling, but still continued. He understood why nobody explored this part. There is no light source, and Sapnap also went alone. Without Dream and George. If he had brought them, they still would’ve left him out. It was getting boring without them.
The dark feeling kept creeping up on him, but he never thought about it. He felt like he was being watched. Like two eyes was seeing his every move.
Sapnap didn’t hear the potion splash.
He didn’t find anything, and he was lost. Every direction looked the same. He couldn’t tell what was north, south, east or west.
“Did I get blindness?!” Sapnap questioned himself. He couldn’t see more than three metres in front of him, that would be a logical explanation.
He could hear whispers as the eerie surroundings sent shivers down his spine. He felt numb. His fear was catching up to him.
The whispers sounded real. He wasn’t hallucinating. He wasn’t hearing things. It was like a nightmare you would have after watching too much horror movies.
Nothing felt real.
Suddenly, he was feeling nauseous. A sharp pain hit his neck. The world was slowly fading away. Black spots filled his vision. His eyelids were getting heavier. His world was almost completely black.
”Yes, you will be my youngest victim.” Sapnap barely heard that same whisper say. Then, he couldn’t feel anything.

Sapnap woke up in a black room. The moonlight barely lit up the room. It was still dark, darker than his black hair.
He tried to move his hands. He couldn’t. It was tied together by something, presumably ropes. The room had a weird fade by the door. Anything can come and you won’t expect it.
He had a horrible pain in his head. It was worse than a headache. He also had a stinging pain in his neck.
”You’re finally awake.” Sapnap almost screamed after he saw the figure in front of him. But he was numb with fear. He just randomly woke up there.
After what felt like forever, he got the little courage to ask. “W-why am I-I here?!” The figure just let out a chuckle as it pulled off its hood.
Sapnap was to numb with fear to notice the figure’s glowing red eyes and jet black hair. The look of a demon. What is he going to do?
The man grabbed a knife out of the cabinet behind Sapnap. “I wanna have a little fun before I end it.”
”N-no please d-don’t” He said, full of fear. But it was too late. He heard a crunch. There was blood oozing out of his left arm. His arm felt like it broke. There was so much pain.
”Let’s have some more fun.”
He felt like screaming because of all the pain. But his fear stopped him.
”It’s more fun when you scream.” The man said.
”N-no p-please-” He was cut off by a sharp pain in his legs. All he could see is the blood pouring out. His bones hurt like hell. His arm was broken. He had lots of bruises on his head. The thoughts were stopped by a hard punch to his left eye.
When he opened it, he realised something weird.
I can’t see properly out of my left eye
What can I do now?!
Everything hurts
Did something stab my stomach?!
Sapnap looked down to see his chest had a knife right under it.
Why didn’t he just stab my heart instead to get me out of my pain?
“I wanted to save to fun.” The strange man replied. The knife stayed in his chest. At least three of his ribs were fractured or broken.
The vision in his left eye was almost completely black. All the bruises on his body were red. He didn’t know where his headband went. The pain in his chest was unbearable. He wanted it to end. He wanted the pain to go.
The knife caused the flesh around it to stick to it.
If I were to remove the knife, I would bleed out and the pain would go.
He realised he couldn’t. His arms were stuck together.
”Let’s have more fun now!” The demonic man said.
The man pulled out another knife and cut a slit in the right side of the chest. The pain was getting worse. It felt like his organs were going to burst. He wanted to die. The pain was unbearable. He had said that multiple times but now it is accurate. All the pain stayed. His headache was getting worse. The vision in his left eye was almost completely black.
The blade in his stomach stayed in place as the blood started to collect around it. It was staying inside his body, so he couldn’t die from blood loss.
Why didn’t I go with George or Dream
I should’ve gone with one of them
I shouldn’t have gone by myself
If I die, the pain would go away.
Sapnap snapped out of his thoughts as he heard a potion splash. It was red.
Is that instant harming?!
The potion had put some bruises on his arms. He was almost completely dead. The knife in his chest was digging even deeper into his flesh. He realised he was too weak to even move. He wondered if Dream and George would notice he was gone. The time he spent felt like hours. He saw the sun rising. Surely his friends would come back to him, right?
They have to come back. They’re my friends. They care about me.
He felt a sharp pain on the back of his neck and something flowing out of it. That man was holding an axe.
Wait- an axe?! That thing does a lot of damage!
Suddenly, he felt the knife go out of his chest and into the front of his throat. The blood by his chest was dry, so he couldn’t bleed out.
He wanted his misery to end. All the pain. His friends probably didn’t notice he was gone. They only ignored him.
He left them so suddenly that he couldn’t process what happened. The knife also came out of his throat. The demon man ran away.
“You forgot about me, didn’t you?”
