I sat next to one of the trillions of snowpoffs on the ground, alone and fearful. I had journeyed long and far through the underground to get home, but I've just realized how a companion to venture with would be much more helpful. I hoped that I could find someone that was close to Toriel, but I still travel alone. Hungry and tired I lay down to sleep.

I awoke upon a mattress with springs jumping out of it. Looking around the unfamiliar room I realized the only object in the room other than me was the single mattress and a rectangular window that not even someone as small as I could use to escape to the outside world. I stood up and looked around the almost barren room. It was small, but warm and had a touch that made it feel cozy. I walked towards the door and slightly opened it. Behind me I heard a voice whisper in my ear, "Mornin' kiddo." I whipped around and saw a skeleton in a blue jacket, black shorts with stripes on the sides, a white shirt, and pink slippers. Not knowing who this monster was I looked at my feet, not wanting to interact. "You can stay here. We've a skele-TON of room.." He said, not dropping the wide grin that stretched across his white skull. I silently giggled but stopped mid laugh still not sure who this guy is. "You got a sense a humor that's for sure. Cautious too."

"Sans! Is the human awake yet? I need to know before I battle it! I cannot fight someone hurt!" The skeleton in front of me laughed and I thought about why everone in the underground wants to fight instead of have peace with each other. I sighed and thought about all of the friends I had made during my journeys. Had I not been a coward I would have asked one of my companions to venture with me. He stares at me, his face betraying his curiosity, the smile finally gone. "Do you know..." He asks, his face in full shadow. " I remember you?" He says, his grin back and his eye socket glowing as bright as the sun with a fire blue flare. I flinch and remember the genocidal route I once took. The memories almost unbearable I shake my head trying to clear my mind.

(*wasn't me) I said using the hand gestures I knew he would understand. He sighed, the flame in his socket extinguished. "TIBIA honest, I think we should talk about the HELL that you made me go through." He said his eye flickering for but a few seconds. You could tell he was trying to control it. I sighed and hastily offered to talk about it later. He nodded just before his taller brother who he loved dearly walked into the dark room. I backed away from the skeleton in the doorway, memories threatening to surface. "Human! Are you OK? I found you outside the doghouse. You were so cold!" He exlaimed. Sans chuckled silently. "Oh my god Sans don't." Papyrus said, his voice so familiar that I clenched my hands to stop the memories I almost caught.

"I guess you could say they were chilled... To the BONE." Sans said, laughing at his own joke. I winced and looked down at my hands to see that I was balling my fist so tight I had pierced my own skin. The blood on my hands was too much. I fell to the floor with a thud, tears streaking down my cheeks in torrents. All the memories of how I had killed everyone in the underground too much. I sobbed harder than I ever have before. "I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry! I tried to fix it! I didn't want to do it! Chara had the idea! I'm so so sorry I'm sorry! Sorry sorry sorry!" I kept going until I couldnt even talk anymore. Papyrus had pulled me into a hug that I wasn't even worthy of. " I don't know why your sad and apologizing, but I forgive you. If it will make you feel better." He said, Papyruses voice confused. I looked to Sans and saw that he wasn't smiling anymore, but he looked horrified.

"Sans, Papyrus... I'm sorry." I said, my voice barely above a whisper.

Then it was dark.
