Run Away

by KeiLeonheart

Everyone had heard the stories of Mt. Abbott, about how monsters lived underneath the surface of the earth who came out to drag away children that made the mistake of climbing the mountain. Frisk and Chara knew very well what they would run into when they ran away to the mountain. What they found though wasn't what they expected.

1. Chapter 1

He was holding onto what little sanity he had as he hid in a cubby behind the cabinets, his knees held against his chest as he breathed as quietly as possible. As he listened, he could hear the other children moving closer to him, listening to them talk as they laughed and joked about him. The boy covered his mouth to keep quieter as he listened to them mock him.

-He's a joke-

-Pointless-

-Why doesn't he just kill himself?-

He took deep, quiet breaths as he listened from the closet. He knew that if he made too much noise they would find him in his spot and no matter of fighting back would save him. All he could do was wait patiently and hope they either left or ran into his sister. She could take them on, they all knew that she wasn't afraid to hurt anyone who wanted to hurt him. That's why they would hunt for him when she was away though. If she wasn't there then he was such an easy target. A target that wouldn't fight back. One that they could hurt as they pleased, that was too nice for his own good and would just say it was an accident and that no one had hurt him.

After a while the other children walked away and he snuck out of the cubby, quickly gathering his things as he hurried to his sister's room for the night. He knew very well that if he stayed in his own room that they would just go after him after he had fallen asleep. It had only been three years since their parents had abandoned them and an even shorter three months since they had come to the orphanage after their aunt had died and yet for some reason they couldn't all just get along. One day he hoped that everyone could get along and just be friends, he knew that with how things were that would never happen though. One day he wouldn't have to run though. Even though he didn't know when that would be he knew it for a fact. No one had to run forever.

"Frisk, are you okay?" his sister asked as he set his pillow on her bed and climbed up next to her. When he nodded, she sighed and frowned. "I know you're lying to me to keep me from getting in trouble again. Just tell me what happened."

Its okay Chara, I just don't want to be alone

"Okay Frisk, I'll believe you this time."
