The day was going great. You missed your bus and had to walk to work. Then, it started to rain and you didn't bring an umbrella. You also had your wallet stolen. Not like you had any money in it anyways. You were currently walking home in the pouring rain, grouchy as ever. 'Stupid bus. Stupid wallet. Stupid job.' You grit your teeth and narrow your eyes at the pavement. "Stupid rain." You grumble. You had been walking for what seemed like hours, but that was to be expected because you lived nowhere near the city. You decided you wanted to have a beautiful, scenenic view, so you built yourself a house near Mount Ebott. Now that you thought about it, that was a terrible idea. You mentally facepalm as you try and figure out how to get home.

Someone accidently bumped into you and mumbled a sorry in return. You glared at them and their steps quickened. You started to mumble to yourself about getting a new job, when you bumped into someone. "Watch where you're going!" You look up to glare at the person for their rude comment, only to do a double-take and take a step back. Your mouth falls open trying to find a logical explanation as to how the person in front of you existed. He was a skeleton who seemed about 5' 4. He had sharp fangs for teeth and wore lots of black and red. Small cracks could be seen around his eye sockets. "Stop staring!" You come back at him quickly. "I will if you shut your mouth!" That set him off. One of his eyes started to glow red and you suddenly couldn't move. Your body felt numb, your limbs foreign. Your veins felt like they were replaced with heavy metal rods. You can see a bone materialize out of thin air and the last thing you saw was his golden tooth glinting in the street light before being knocked out.


When you finally came to, you could hear two muffled voices arguing about something. You looked around and found yourself in a messy room. You were laying on a sheetless mattress, a thin blanket laid on top of you. Socks were strewn across the floor and a treadmill sat in the middle of the room. "Sans, you can't just do that! We live on the surface now! That's considered kidnapping!" You can hear a scoff. "So? It's not like we'll get in trouble or anything. We did the same thing in the Underground and no one cared. So why would people care now?" You can hear a groan. "As much as I hate humans, I hate it more when you go and do something stupid without thinking about the consequences." You slowly get up and walk towards the door. Turning the handle slowly, you open it a crack to see the skeleton from before and another tall skeleton arguing downstairs.

You creep out of the room, trying to be careful about where you stepped...which failed. In your attempt at getting down the stairs, a loud creak resonated throughout the house. Both skeletons look up to see you, one foot dangling in the air. Your mind screamed for you to put your foot down, but you were too frozen in fear to do so. "SANS, I WANT YOU TO TAKE HER BACK HOME." You cringed at how loud the taller skeleton's voice was. After some glaring and mumbling, the smaller skeleton, Sans you presumed, stood at the foot of the stairs. "You gonna get down here or what?" You quickly descended the stairs and got your things. You head out the door before your escort, forgetting about the rain until it hit you in the face. Sans chuckles from behind you and hands you an umbrella.


"Just 'cause I'm doing this, doesn't mean were all 'friends' now." He put air quotes around the word "friends" to make it clear that he didn't like you. You smirk and say, "The feeling's mutual, buddy." Once you both get to your house, Sans stares at Mount Ebott. "Why do ya live near this hellhole?" You give him a confused look. "Mount Ebott? I just thought waking up to the sight of a mountain would be a nice way to start the day." He scoffs. "Try waking up in it everyday." You only get more confused. What do you mean?" Sans sighs, clearly annoyed of your questions. "Look, I gotta get back home, so coulda' maybe give me the umbrella back?" You shove the umbrella into his hand and walk into your house, slamming the door behind you. A flash of light can be seen through one of the windows and Sans leaves without a trace.
