A/N: Hi! This is my first story... and it's based mostly on the video: Papyrus no longer believes in you. Please review on what you liked and disliked on the story and thanks for reading!
Papyrus looked down at the jacket tied around his waist, its blue fabric smelling faintly of ketchup. Memories of him and his brother came to mind. Him making his brother spaghetti, doing puzzles together, his brother reading Fluffy Bunny to him every night. His eye sockets began filling with magical orange tears as every time he was with him. A soft sound quickly turned the skeleton's attention away from the past. A small human child turned a corner at the end of the long, gold hallway Papyrus was waiting at. They looked at the skeleton with sharp red eyes, almost questioning. Papyrus narrowed his eye sockets at the human. He took a deep breath and spoke, "Human… I once called you more than that… didn't I?" The human smiled and looked at him lazily and he continued. "Even with all the fear I had about you. I found the strength to cast it aside. To embrace you… to support you…to call you my…friend." The skeleton shook away his tears and held his shaking hands in front of him. He forced himself to continue.
"But now… Now… What is this feeling," he paused before speaking once more, "Heheh… NYEHEHEHEHEHEH." He chuckled slightly before letting his laughter grow into almost an insane chortle out. The human's eyes widen in shock, seeing the normally happy, go lucky brother glare at them fiercely. It almost scared them. It- his voice cut their thoughts off. "I know what this feeling is." He growled out, "It's hatred." The skeleton's sockets glowed a bright, neon orange. The human grinned and held their knife tighter, now itching to fight.
"For the person who came so far just to DESTROY an old friend," his eye now glowed with an unnatural fire, "This eye of mine, it only activates when such terrible feelings exist. And with it, I can see everything you've hidden from me before," the human continued to smile psychotically. A flash back appear in Papyrus's mind as he spoke. Speaking more fondly, Sans appeared in his head looking over his shoulder at him, "Everything you've done. And everything you intend to do. Sans once told me that the moment he stopped caring would be the moment started to fall apart." A new image was brought forth, an image of him and Papyrus talking, laughing. "At first I thought he was talking about our relationship. And so I tried to make sure he always have a reason to care about me." Another image came, an unhappy one, it bared the witness to Papyrus holding Sans' coat with his dust flying away in the wind, he choked up and forced himself to speak, "But now… I understand what he meant. And it's too late to tell him I'm sorry for not understanding sooner." His mind went black, his next words made the human snap out of their boredom, "It's a funny thing, isn't it? The more you want to hurt someone, the easier it is to make them stop living."
Another image came back, it was him. He was sobbing over Sans's jacket. Papyrus tried not to cry in front of the human, he had to be strong, "But no matter how you make me want to love someone. You can't bring them back from being dead." The human mentally sighed, this was worse than Sans' burning in hell bit. Papyrus's head continued to give him images to go with the words he spoke, this one was Sans hunching his shoulders away from him. "Sans is gone because he stopped caring. But I refuse to do the same!" Papyrus stood, tall and proud thinking about those he lost, Sans, Undyne. "I care about so many things. I care about myself. I care about this world. I care about everyone you took from me." His eye flashed suddenly as his next sentence was spoken. The human smiled once more. "But the one thing… the ONLY thing I no longer care about… IS YOU." He paused choosing his next words. "I'm not going to give you a bad time." The human looked up at the mention of the familiar phrase. "Someone like you, who has taken so much, does not deserve to be given anything," Papyrus glared as he pointed at the human. "Instead… someone like you deserves an equal. Someone who wants to protect with every ounce of the same DETERMINATION you use to DESTROY." The human blinked, he knew about the powers of Determination?
"So human, you're not going to have a bad time.. Instead," his hand was now set on fire, his eyes glinted with an unholy joy, "I'm going to have… LOTS. OF. FUN!" The human's eyes widen in shock as the fight began, in the past timelines when they fought Papyrus had wanted to help them so he didn't really attack. But here, he wanted them dead. Their soul turned blue and they were swiftly thrown to the ceiling, their poor soul shattering on contact. They called upon their save point and came back almost instantly and the fight resumed.
