Chapter 7: Dash's Nightmare.
A few nights later, Violet was asleep when she felt something tap her side. She slowly opened her eyes and saw Dash standing by her bed.
"Hey, Dash, what's up?" Violet asked. As she opened her eyes more, she could see Dash was crying.
"What's wrong?" she asked him as she sat up.
"I had a nightmare." Dash said as he climbed on her bed and sat beside her.
"Me and you were in a dark room. We wandered around for a bit before you got shot through the heart. I quickly kneeled down begging you not to die. You said you hated me before you died with a frown. Next thing I knew, I was in containment by Syndrome. He taunted me before beating me up and when he pulled out a gun, he said, "Say hello to Violet for me, brat". He pulled the trigger and the next thing I knew, he had you up by the neck in a white flash of light and you glared at me and said you really hated me before he crushed your head with his other hand and that's when I woke up." Dash then broke down, sobbing uncontrollably. Violet took her little brother in her arms and sat him on her lap while he sobbed on her shoulder and hugged her tightly. Violet softly shushed Dash and slowly rocked him back and forth.
"Shh…Shh…it's okay, Dash. I'm right here. Nothing's going to happen to me, Syndrome's gone, I promise." Violet whispered softly. After a while, Dash looked up at Violet with tears still in his eyes.
"Hey, Violet, can I stay with you, please?" he asked. Violet smiled at him and nodded.
As they sat there, Dash asked Violet, "Vi, do you hate me?"
Violet smiled and hugged him, "Never."
"Even after all the times I constantly aggravated you or made you feel terrible?"
"That's all in the past to me now, Dash. I love you with all my heart and I always will, no matter what." Violet said with a comforting smile. Dash felt the tears come back, but this time they were tears of happiness.
"Violet, you're the best sister in the world." he said with a smile as he hugged her back.
