Writer's Note:

Nightmare has decided overall that he will tolerate Luis' presence when Myu is with or around him. However, his mentality has sunken into the state of a mild sadness due to all the happily families rising up. Perhaps this is another form of Judgment to Nightmare? Or perhaps he is giving up the hopes of ever truly finding peace.

The Red Devil - Beliar
That is how Nightmare sees Beliar in his mind thanks to the BZD's Rebirthing of him. Plus it's such a snazzy title me thinks

I hope you do not mind Lex. Nightmare is, as I have said not a very pleasant beast however I hope this expresses what I want to get across in a way. He will tolerate Luis, so long as Myu is around and likely will grow to tolerate him more as time goes by. But this is still a terrible thing for the three. I dunno, it's almost 5am and I typed this for 45 minutes... yeaaaaaaah... I need sleep....

Nightmare himself talks in an almost riddle like pattern, though you can tell what he is speaking about his subjects tend to change very quickly. As is seen with this story. I'm sorry if it is confusing to some, but it's how Nightmare is now. His mind is new due to his Rebirth and how he is currently acting. But, as I've said... this is him saying that yes, he will accept Luis around him while in the presence of Myu. But it will still take some time before he allows Luis around without her.

Thy voice is but a cruel and wicked beast...
There is no kindness within it for those who have sinned...
Even though the beast itself has sinned before...
The sin of Love.

The massive beast had found himself at the ponds edge. Watching the waters rippled with the giant koi's that swam about under it's surface. His eyes watching carefully as the wind blew through the thickened sections of fur. His mind at a total loss, he came to pay his visits to the pond when he wasn't hunting the red devil that his creator told him to hunt.

The winds blew once again, the fur blowing harshly before the smoke slowly erupted from his body. The beast glancing back to the young fawns that had come up behind him. Staring at them... watching as the poor little creatures shivered at his cold gaze. Was he a Beautiful Nightmare? Or was he simply a Sweet Dream that was casting it's presence upon the cool forests floor.

"Begonia med du ung seg. meg mareritt er ikke for du å innånde."
(Begone with you young ones... my nightmare's are not for you to inhale.)

He watched though, as the little creatures tilted their heads in confusion... confused by the Alien language that was emitting from deep within this monsters throat. The smoke that was flowing up and around his body was swaying in a slow dance... he watched carefully however and hissed deeply as one fawn dared to approach him. That smoke lashing out and quickly stuffing it's way down the poor things nose as it bleeted out, reared and quickly rushed off... the others with it quickly following.

"Du har valgt slik en skjebnesvanger ung ettall. JEG advarte du det den var ikke til deres tender nese å innånde. bortsett fra du bydde ikke heed det advarende. Nå du er pest å lide-"
(You have chosen such a fate young one... I warned you that it was not for your tender nose to inhale. But... you did not heed that warning. Now you are plagued to suffer)

The beast stopped mid-sentence when he glanced to a side. Eyes narrowing slightly as he saw a familiar sight. Shifting some in the waters, causing the fish to quickly take cover in the depth's below as he narrowed his eyes slightly. The striped stag, young in stature was something he didn't fully tolerate anymore. Due to events that came around and that had happened his distaste for him grew more and more apparent. And there was the fact that now Myu had been dragged slowly in the middle of this ongoing conflict.

A deep snort emitted from his throat as he growled sharply before slowly moving out and leaping up... he had been across from the striped stag when he saw his approach towards the pond. His landing wasn't of a beast crashing into the depths of the water to be turned into a disgusting underling... no... Nightmare's hooves barely touched the water as he landed, not sinking below. And slowly... the monster walked towards the other stag. His eyes narrowed as the smoke swirled in it's deadly dance around him however... he'd call it off.

That black liquid coursing back into his body with each step before he was finally in front of the Striped Stag who jolted some at his presence. Lowering his head down Nightmare snorted softly, a clear look of distrust in his eyes as he snarled... a soft hiss of a growl emitting from deep within before his head arched back in a roar that quaked those around the pond and sent birds fleeing for shelter in the trees above.

"Hvorfor vil du komme her over å pine meg så? Du er sinn har allerede kastet selv fjerne. kastet det er rygg å det ettall JEG elsket. Du si du er beklager. si det du ønske tilgivelsen. bortsett fra hvorfor burde JEG tilgi du for det sins det du har gjort?"
(Why do you come here to torment me so? You're mind has already thrown itself away... thrown it's back to the one I loved. You say you are sorry... say that you wish forgiveness... but why should I forgive you for the sins that you have done?)

The beast didn't give time for an answer however as he climbed his way up onto the bank of the waters glancing to Luis from the side, the beast surely towered over the younger stag... in general, this monster was a beast and a giant. A soft snort escaped those nostrils, smoke flaring up once again... blanketing Luis within a gentle embrace. There was no harm here... no, Nightmare was somewhat forgiving. And Luis himself had nothing to fear in this... albeit nerve racking blanket.

"JEG ha tolerere din tilstedeværelse for en stund. på grunn av Myu. Det søt doe det JEG ha møtte siden meg sommerfugler i forbikjøring. Hun har blitt gitt en Dom. en test. mange like JEG ha blitt gitt. Min imidlertid er allerede innfinne seg sten. JEG må jakten det Rød Djevelen ned og finner seg. sette saker rett. sette saker måten de burde. Hva din Dom er. JEG vite ikke."
(I have tolerated your presence for a while... due to Myu. The sweetest doe that I have met since my butterflies passing. She has been given a Judgment... a test... much like I have been given. Mine however is already set in stone. I must hunt the Red Devil down and find him... set things right... set things the way they should. What your Judgment is... I know not...)

The beast paused, casting his gaze onward as the smoke continued to blanket Luis within it's gentle grasp.

"bortsett fra hvis det er en hva Myu ønsker å ha. så JEG skal grit meg fangs og bamse din tilstedeværelse i nærheten meg selv. Til tross for meg aktuelle avsky til deres."
(But... if it is what Myu wishes to have... then I shall grit my fangs and bear your presence around myself. Despite my current loathing for you.)

A deep snort came from his thick skull before the black smoke relented and once again disappeared in the monsters body as he turned and was facing the pond once again casting his gaze out towards it.

"Jeg vil ikke imidlertid. tillate du like ved meg når Myu er ikke i nærheten. Adgang meg når hun er , eller henvender meg ikke i det hele tatt. JEG ikke ønske om for henne å alltid følge etter etter meg imidlertid , på grunn av det fakta at JEG er rastløs og må fortsette running til JEG finner det Rød Djevelen og end denne pine det er pest meg sinn. Kanskje så Jeg vil til slutt finner meg hvilested og få tillatelse til fortsette."
(I will not however... allow you near me when Myu is not around. Approach me when she is, or do not approach at all. I do not intend for her to always follow me however, due to the fact that I am restless and must continue running until I find the Red Devil and end this torment that is plaguing my mind. Maybe then I will finally find my resting place and be allowed to go on...)

A heavy sigh escaped from Nightmare as his eyes softened for a moment and he leapt up, landing atop the waters surface once again glancing back towards Luis yet again, though this time. That terrible beast held something softer... a more... fragile look to his otherwise beastly appearance.

"Dom dager hente enhver. en gang imellom vi er gjenfødt. En gang imellom vi er gitt en destruktive valget , annet timene vi er pest å gjenoppleve det skrekkelig saker vi har gjort. Bortsett fra til sist , det er hva spillene er spillt med våre lever. Du har fortjene noen av meg toleranse rygg. bortsett fra ikke alt sammen. muligens vi ville avle opp på bedre pris i fremtiden."
(Judgment days come for everyone... sometimes we are reborn. Sometimes we are given a destructive choice, other times we are plagued to relive the terrible things we have done. But in the end, that is what games are played with our lives. You have gained some of my tolerance back... but not all of it. Perhaps... we will grow on better terms in the future.)

Another sigh slowly came from him before he lowered his gaze to the water, as if looking at something beyond the surface.

"Familier er født. familier er det ny verden. muligens en slekt er hva denne gamle monster nødvendig for at quench hans dyrisk begrunne. Muligens tilværelse en far , eller en godfather å saker å komme ville reparert sted slik en lede , knust hjertet."
(Families are born... families are the new world. Perhaps... a family is what this old monster needs in order to quench his beastly state. Perhaps being a father, or a godfather to things to come will mend such a disgusted, broken heart.)

Once a monster
Always a Monster
No matter how hard it tries...
Family and life are nothing for...
The beast.
