Your heart pounds in your throat as you peek through the underbrush, watching the small skeleton walk smugly down the path again.

"Human, we gotta-" Flowey starts to say, but his words are muffled by your shaking hand. You're too frightened to even shush him this time.

sans continues walking, seemingly unaware of your hiding spot as he kicks the branch out of the path. As he gets closer to the ruins, you slowly start to back away further into the forest, hoping that this time you'll finally be able to get passed him. Eyes never leaving his back, you slowly creep through the underbrush toward escape. Flowey inhales a shaky breath of relief as the distance between you and sans increases, but that relief is short lived. You were so focused on the back of his skull when you really should've watched where you were going.

One more step back…

The ground disappears underneath your right foot and your heart plummets to your stomach as you fall. A loud scream escapes your lips, completely forgetting the need to be quiet, as you feel the rush of air all around you. Flowey's voice is faint and you can no longer feel his weight on your arm, but it's just as well. You're about to die again anyway. You squeeze your eyes shut as you brace yourself for the impact of your head against the chasm floor.

But…

The impact never came.

Oh no.

Laughter rumbles deep within his rib cage as he holds you bridal style in his arms, the tips of his phalanges digging into your arm painfully.

This is much worse.

"good thing i caught ya, buddy." he whispers, his laughter sending shivers down your spine and ice in your veins. His toothy grin widens as he gazes down at you, eye sockets flashing red. "it'd be such a shame if you died," He drops you abruptly and throws you against the cavern wall, "before i got to kill you!" He chuckles again as he watches you squirm and choke against his grip on your soul.

He smirks and strides over to you, hand still upraised as he presses your body further into the stone. His wicked grin parts and a long, red tongue slithers out from within his jaws, licking his teeth hungrily. "don't you know how much i enjoy this?" he purred.

His magic releases its hold and your body slumps forward, but he catches you yet again, this time pinning you in place with his radius across your chest. Blood pounds in your brain and you can't even begin to wonder why you can feel his breath against your face as he leans in closer, "i won't lie, your reset bullshit was pretty damn annoying," He chuckled again and pressed his radius up higher, over your neck, as he pinned you to the wall with his pelvis. Black spots begin to cloud your vision and your tongue begins to swell. He smiles at your pitiful attempts to speak as he grasps your waist firmly with his free hand, "no matter how many times i kill you, i can't seem to take your soul before everything restarts again." The pressure from his radius eases up for a moment as he leans in, scraping his teeth along your neck. You whimper as the scratches send sharp pains along your skin, but he only laughs as another flash of red materializes his tongue once more. You shiver at the surreal feeling as he licks over the marks to soothe the pain. He grinds his pelvis into you and snickers, "man, if i didn't know any better, i'd say you keep coming back just for me."

He removes his radius from your neck completely and you inhale greedy gulps of air. His bones tingle against you as he laughs, kneading your hips with both his hand and whispering into your neck, "perhaps there's another way i can capture your soul."

"N-no!" You start to say, but your words are lost in a scream as he sinks his fangs into your shoulder. He groans against your flesh as his tongue glides over the wounds. Your heartbeat races as his teeth scrape up your neck, and he nips on your ear.

"tell me…you like this, don't you?" he laughs, "little freak."

"Get off me!" you cry out, tears in your eyes as you turn your head away. Oh god, why won't he just kill you already? You try to push him away, but his magic pins your arms high above your head. Dammit.

He grabs your chin firmly in his hand and forces you to face him. "i didn't say you could look away." he purred as his thumb stroked your face. Your heart threatened to leap out of your chest and flee as you stared deep into those red orbs. They were the last thing you always saw, each and every time. Red. Red with hatred. Red with malice. They flashed again as he smirked at you, only…this time. They were red with…something else?

"A-are you going to kill me now?" you whimper, a small tear leaking from your eye and dripping down onto his thumb.

His malevolent grin falters for a moment, as if he's surprised at the question. Why would he be? He basically just said killing you was his favorite thing to do. The red lights of his eyes flicker between yours for a moment, with an oddly thoughtful expression on his face. His grin widens again and leans closer.

"only if you want me to." he purred as he pressed his teeth against your lips. You squeak in surprise and try to squirm away, but he has you firmly pinned against the wall. The only thing you can manage is a small buck of your hips to try to shove him off, but he just retaliates by grinding into you firmly, laughing against your mouth.

What the hell is going on?

You jump in surprise as you feel an alien presence slither against your lips. He snickers again as his tongue glides against your bottom lip, requesting entrance. Fear and confusion swirl within your mind and he grunts in irritation when you don't give in. Nipping somewhat gently on your lip, he eagerly forces his way in as you gasp in surprise. He moans in delight as his tongue fills your mouth, exploring every detail. His hand returns to your hips again, kneading the flesh hungrily as he presses himself against you. Wanting. Needing more. You choke slightly as he explores, chuckling slightly as he finds your teeth so dull in comparison. A shiver runs through your body as he finds your tongue and massages it roughly, baiting it out to play. You whimper and he groans again as you wrestle his tongue with your own, trying to stop him from overwhelming you completely. The magic that held your arms suddenly disappears and your arms fall forward, landing on either side of his clavicles. He hums in delight and wraps his arms around you, digging his fingers into your back.

You gasp as he finally leans back, with a wide smirk on his face. "you liked that, didn't cha? little freak?" he whispers playfully.

"N-no!" you snap back indignantly and try to bring your arms back to their sides, but his grasp holds your arm firm.

Gazing at your hand, he murmurs, "well i did." Your spine tingles as he presses a pseudo kiss to the inside of your wrist.

"s-sans, w-what the hell?" you sputter as you try to tug your arm free to no avail.

He just sighs and grabs your other arm, pinning both above your head again as he leans forward and strokes your cheek with the other. "i hate to say it, but i've become…quite fond of you." he muttered as he glanced away.

"Are you nuts?!" You squeak and try to squirm away, but he doesn't even notice.

"probably," he glances at you again with a strangely shy smile, "and that's why i want to capture your soul in a different way."

"What are you-"

Your words are interrupted as he presses another kiss to your lips. "i'm going to make you love me."
