I've been having to take care of Papyrus ever since the humans took both our parents. They came into our little town and looked for the people who are what they were called perfect to serve. They picked everyone from age 16 up, who wasn't pregnant, nursing a very young monster, or was really old.

I still think they shouldn't of taken our mom, because Pap was still so little. He was still having trouble talking and wasn't at the age to actually remember our parents. We were the youngest to be left without people to take care of us.

That's when my friends and I set up a thing to help the children left without parents.

My friend, Grillby, would cook meals for everyone. He only talks to me do to his shyness. I told him he should start a restaurant... If we don't get taken away by the time he could get one started. He's older than me.

They left an older skeleton, Dr. WD Gaster. I asked him to treat everyone who got hurt. He happily agreed to do it. He also builds stuff for both monsters and humans.

My other friends wish I don't confess who they are or what they did. We talked about if humans ever find stuff out about or group, who would be okay to let the others confess that they were in it.

Only Grillby, Gaster, and I agreed to it. I don't see what's wrong with showing that you are willing to take care of other people. It shows you are nice and care about others.

Oh! Silly me. I forgot to add what I do in the group!

I take care of the kids. We picked a big house to raise them. I clean, feed, play, entertain, and everything I can for those kids. I made a promise to my parents to watch after everyone. I may have taken that a little to far though.

I am not 15 as I write this. I often hide this to keep the other kids from getting to it. The humans told me that, the masters we are getting signed to are starting to want to know everything we do and did in our past lives.

They came about a month again. They said they will come get more monsters to go with them.

I am afraid that I will be taken and leave Pap behind. He is still so kind and innocent, so much it almost makes him dumb. I don't want to leave my only family member that I have left.

Grillby has been training someone to take over his place, because he thinks he's going to get taken away. He told me about the dreams he had, where he is given to a large family of humans and have to work as their chief. He says, that I get taken away the same day.

That just scared me more.

"SANS, PAPYRUS IS HUNGRY!" The younger, but almost the same height skeleton yells right beside the one that was writing.

Sans sighs and puts down his pencil. "Did Grillby not make food yet?" He asks getting up.

"HE WENT OUTSIDE BECAUSE THE HUMANS CALLED MONSTERS OVER THE AGE OF 13." Ppayrus responds as his brother picks him up.

Sans eyes widen. He rushes down the steps to see monsters being rushed out the house by humans with weapons.

"Oh no..." He gulps and heads down the steps. Sans's fears are coming true, though he isn't even get rushed out.

Sans puts Papyrus in the room for children under the age of 8.

"Please stay here." He whispers and kisses his brother on the head.

"BUT BROTHER! WHERE ARE YOU GOING?!" The younger skeleton jumps to his feet and hugs his olfer brother.

"I-I have to go out to the humans. I promise that I will be back." Sans hugs him back. "Be brave for me?"

"PAPYRUS IS ALWAYS BRAVE FOR HIS BROTHER SANS." Papyrus hugs tighter before Sans had to peel him off.

Sans gives him a weak smile before rushing off.

Sans was panicking on the inside, though on the outside he was acting strong for the group of monsters who looked up to him. He wanted to run back inside and hide, so he could stay with Papyrus and not leave him brother alone in this shitty world that they call life.

He wished that humans couldn't, didn't, have this power over them. That they didn't have to work for them. That they could just live out lives.

Though, he knows wishes don't always happen to come true. There are very rare times that wishes come true. Most of the times, they are Papyrus's wishes that he wished would come true for the littler, while no longer littler, but younger one.

"Who is Sans Blast Bones?" A human asks as soon as he makes it outside. "Don't make me ask another time!"

His voice is stuck in his throat, but he somehow says, "I'm him."

The human looks at him in surprised. Like he didn't think he would be who he actually is.

"You're a tiny thing. Though you did show you are brave by confessing who you are."

Sans decides to be braver and walks to the human. He feels like he is about to wet himself.

"You are going to come with us, skeleton. The others here have told us how you are really good for caring for other people." They wave their hand over to at least eleven different monsters standing in a line.

Each one looked scared and sorry for me. Sans knew that they gave me up to protect themselves or so they could stay with their family. He doesn't blame them. He would have maybe done the same if he was weak and scared.

But he isn't... He has yet to give any names to them about who is good for what around here. Even after a beating that left his right eye in bad shape.

"Yes... I take care of the other monsters here, who don't have a family to take there of them." He continues to stare at the other monsters.

Sans was making them promise to him. Promise to take care of everyone. Papyrus is at their top.

They nod and some began to cry. They must feel horrible now for turning him over. He hopes they know, that he doesn't hate them. He just want them to promise him and do what he asks of them.

"We will be taking you in. Go say goodbye to everyone. If you hide from us, we will find you and kill you." The human got a dangerous tone with him.

Sans just played it cool by saying, "I won't hide from the real monsters that roam this planet."

Oh, did the human not like this! They hit him in the face, making him fall onto his knees.

"Don't get cocky with me, you idiot!"

Sans shakes himself and gets up. He just keeps his smile.

Smiling keeps them from seeing your fear, he has always told himself. He was once told that by his dad, who smiled the whole time as he was taken away from his children and put in a different group than his loving wife.

It took years to master the "Keep Smiling" trick. To his surprised, it actually works. Not on his friends or Papyrus though. They saw right through it.

Sans just walked straight inside to find Grillby and Papyrus.

Both were right at the door.

"Th-They're taking you, aren't they?" Grillby asks in his quiet and shy voice.

"Yes. The others told about me being a good caretaker." Sans sighs. "I hug you, but you're too hot for me." He chuckles, but no one else did.

"PAPYRUS DOESN'T WANT HIS BROTHER, SANS, TO LEAVE HIM." Papyrus hugs him tightly.

Sans hugs him. "I don't want to leave my Great Papyrus."

"I'M GREAT?"

"Yes. You are the Great Papyrus." Sans chuckles. He looks at Grillby.

"Y-You're book." The fire teenager holds out the said object.

"Thank you."

"They are taking me, too." Grillby says as he hands the book over.

The silences that fell over the ground, killed Sans on the inside. He felt like crying, but he kept a smile the whole time.

"Time to go skeleton." The human grabbed him by the back of his hoodie.

"Let me hug a bit more." He growls, but was yanked away from his younger sibling.

"WAIT! LET PAPYRUS HUG MORE!" The Great Papyrus yells.

The human laughs as he drags the older brother outside. "This is the first time I have seen such a love between monsters. Makes me think you guys are humans."

"And you humans are the true monsters!" Sans yells as he tries to free himself.

He was tossed on his knees as other monsters ran outside. Along the group was his friends and brothers.

"Say that one more time!"

"I mean it! Humans are the true monsters! They take us without thinking of the people who we love and care about." Sans stays on his knees. "I will not back down! I care about every monster here and I have watched over them even from a young age! I know humans feel the same as we do, but you guys let your anger get in the way too much!"

Sudden a rope is wrapped tightly around his neck, making him gag. The human wraps it more than once.

Sans kept a smile, though it was more as a "You will end up in hell smile."

Then the rope was tied to his hands and he was yanked to his feet. Then shoved down. Yanked to his feet. Shoved down. The human repeated this over and over.

"Wiped that damn smile off your look!" They yell.

"I will not." Sans yells as he is yanked to his feet.

His eyes got a bit scared. He chuckles to hide that.

"Keep smiling. Even in the darkest moments."
