Frisk pov
. . . Ch- Chicago?! H- HOW?!
I don't undertand. Then it finally it me.
~FLASHBACK
we're at the end of the Pacifist run
Well after a bunch neutrals, pacifists and genocides. I was about to press RESET button. Until Sans had enough of the resets, the repeat, the lying, and the killing.
After sans first row of attack were done with a quarter of my health gone, sudden Chara took over my body. They had us dodging the gaster blasters and next wall of bones and they their turn of slashing.
Sans was getting impatient. Chara brought up the reset option and with a psychotic laugh and let me in control again... I think Chara just gave me some time.
But then glowing blue bones were aiming at me. I pressed the buttoned and it glows yellow for activation. But just by a second later, a one the bones broke throw the the option and impaled through my chest. I looked at Sans giving me a disappointing look at me, as both me and chara never learned. I can tasted the blood dripping frim my mouth and then.
Everything went white.
~FLASHBACK OVER
I finished whispering to chara and we both should guess that shattering when activating the reset just transported us.
We turned back to the same man who is just walking away.
We started following him.
Me: mister!
He stopped and turned at us again still holding his phone.
I instead looked carefully at the phone. His is like the same as ours.
That just hit me. I pulled out my phone and activate it. It then shows line streams going like it was scanning something. The line beams directly at the man's phone and it has a floating Icon on his left, his profile pic is blurry for some reason, the bottom says
Age: Error
Occupation: Error
But his name was at the top and says
Me: Aiden Pearce?
His eyes grew wide, tempted to drop his phone. He then looks down at my phone.
The man, now known as Aiden, walks towards me and gestures me to give him my phone.
I gave it to him, he looks through the phone and turns to Chara for the same thing.
Aiden: are you two new?
I just stood there stuttered from what he really meant.
Me: I- I don't kn-
Aiden: hackers, like me.
I still froze in from what he means by us being "hackers" He gave both of our phones back.
Aiden: you're too young to be in this s*. Where are your parents?
Me and Chara looked at each other. I nod for them to confirm. Since this is still a reset, Chara knows our status right now.
Chara: we are orphans?
Aiden then looked away to think and then back at us.
Aiden: okay, since you two are completely new but are still kids, I will go easy on you. I'll find some foster home or orphanage.
Both our eyes widen from his suggestion and we both sync
Me and Chara: NO!!!
He stepped back from our outburst/respond.
Me: we had... bad history... with orphanages.
I just tapped both of my fingers together and lowered my head.
Me: since we are classified as "hackers" maybe... we can join you... you seemed to be a main focus in this world. Being with you is technically the best option. And... you can teach us!
He flinched from the last suggestion but I still continue my persuasion.
Me: I mean teach us to hack! Um... we truly have no where to go nor who to go to, what we can or can't do. Please sir.
I pulled out my phone again and showed him the lock screen with the exact symbol as our hats.
Me: hackers stick together?
He then looks away to think and then he sighed in defeat and looks at us again.
Aiden: Alright.
-entering Parker Square
We manged to pass the traffic by walking on the middle barrier. Me and chara just follow the man from behind. He said that he has a place we can stay as well, called "Owl Motel"
As we on a bridge that was over a train tracks, Aiden's phone buzzed and pulls it our. Thanks to our similar phones, we see a similar floating labeling icon butinstead has someone else's profile picture, a woman, in a light square with something saying on the side
Remoted profile triggered
Crime detected
Place waypoint...
Crime detected?
We heard a click bleed and aiden runs ahead while hold his phone out still.
Me and Chara followed him while run to whatever his destination was.
We passed a few blocks until we reach a small alleyway between two shops the night is still young
Aiden puts on his mask to cover his lower face up to his nose.
He spoke to us serious.
Aiden: don't follow any further until I say so. If anything goes wrong, hide in that shop.
We gulped and nod from this order.
We stayed put as he enters the alleyway.
Just a few seconds later me and Chara nod each and quickly but quietly follow his direction.
We hid behind a crate and few feet a way is Aiden who is hiding behind a blue metal barrel while, again, holding his phone out. He scanning something.
Until coming out from right side is a woman, the same one from the profile. And then coming from the left side was a very man giving an upset look at the woman.
Criminal 1: hey b, are you deaf through my own phone call.
Woman 1: please leave me alone! I don't even know why you are doing this to me!
Criminal 1: well let me tell you something princess, me doing this to you means is same as me doing this to any other stupid prick. Now-
He pulls out a gun and points it at her. The woman crouched down and her hands up as a last defense.
Criminal 1: -only anyone pays me to play nice can walk tomorrow!
Woman 1: no! NO! PLEASE!
the gunman readies his aim and smirk.
Aiden rushes with at gunman fast and pulls out a metal retractable baton.
He launches at the gunman down on top him and beats him in the head with the end of the baton twice. The man was unconscious and woman was unarmed and shocked but was the relieved.
Woman 1: thank you. Thank you sir.
She then walks away, still a little shock.
Me and Chara had lost our words from what happen. I'm starting to peace the story of his world.
We step out in sight and walked closer to him. As Aiden closed his baton, turns to us and groans in annoyance.
Aiden: didn't I tell you two, NOT TO FOLLOW ME.
Me and Chara looked at each other again and step up
Me: what is your role here?
He just raised an eye brow at me so I reohase the question.
Me: what do people see you as?
Aiden: . . . The vigilante.
