Jeff, "Mom! There's an emergency at the lab!"

Alex, "What!? What's wrong?"

Isaac, "The workers there had recently developed a new technology that allows them to control a monsters mind. That technology was taken sometime in the night by the Shadows."

"What exactly does that mean?"

Alex, "It mean Sans is in danger of being forcefully controlled by the Shadows."

"How does it work?"

Alex, "You attach the device to the forehead of any monster and it'll stay attached until manually removed. Until then. . . that monster is under complete and total control."

"You have to find my son!"

Alex, "It's been a week, Gaster. All we can do is-"

The recording that Frisk had been watching catches out attention.

The search party that was sent out to look for Sans was now running away from something. One by one the members of the group were killed. When they had all been killed, a voice I hadn't heard in days sounded.

"hello. i hope you haven't forgotten me."

The camera was moved to show Sans. He had a small object digging into his skull.

Alex, "He's being controlled."

"i've decided that i'll join your enemy because they give a pretty sweet deal. i'll be controlled against my will and serve as their secret weapon, and you all will be killed in the process."

Papyrus looked on with horror as he saw Sans saying such things, and all because he was being controlled.

Papyrus, "WE HAVE TO HELP MY BROTHER!"

"But how. We don't have a plan or-Papyrus!"

Papyrus ran off, probably to find Sans. I followed him so that I could watch over him. We ran out of the building and out of the city. Once we were past the city limits, we slowed to a walk.

Papyrus, "DAD?"

"Yes, Papyrus?"

Papyrus, "DO YOU THINK WE CAN STOP SANS AND REMOVE THAT THING ON HIS SKULL?"

"I don't know. I'll try to come up with a plan for when we find him."

I felt like I was being watched as I continued to look behind me. I felt like we were being followed, but I never saw anyone when I turned around. After a few hours passed I felt like I should ask Papyrus about this.

"Papyrus. Do you feel like we're being followed?"

Papyrus, "NO. WHY?"

"I just feel like someone's following."

Papyrus, "MAYBE IT'S SANS?"

"No. Not Sans. A human."

Papyrus began to look a bit nervous, but didn't say anything.

"Ah. I know who it is. Frisk. You can come out now."

Frisk walked out from behind a tree. Her stealth had always mesmerized me for I was unsure of how a human could be so silent.

Papyrus, "FRISK! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?"

Frisk, "I wanted to help."

Papyrus, "BUT YOU COULD HURT YOURSELF."

Frisk, "So could you! Your arm is still injured."

Papyrus, "TRUE."

"Well, I, for one, am glad that Frisk followed us. She can be a huge help to us finding Sans as well as getting that thing off of him."

Frisk, "So I don't have to go back?"

"No. You can stay with us, but I suggest you go back to being stealthy so we can catch Sans by surprise. If Papyrus and I fail to get the device off of Sans then you sneak up on him and try to get it off. Alright?"

Frisk, "Alright."

Frisk went back to being stealthy, and acted somewhat as our own secret weapon.

We continued walking, not bothering to be quiet. Even though I knew Frisk was following there was this feeling that Sans was watching us, but I wasn't sure how. When the sun had set and it was now night, I saw a glowing blue and yellow light.

"Sans. I know you're there."

Sans walked out, his smile forced.

Sans, "heh. ya got me. so, ya come to join the shadows?"

"I'm afraid not."

I raised my left hand and brought out a Gaster Blaster. Once Sans caught sight of it he brought out three of his own. I had been working on a plan, but nothing seemed to work. That is until I remembered that Sans could only see out of one eye.

"Papyrus, blind him!"

Sadly, Papyrus hesitated. He was hit with a Gaster Blaster, his HP down by half.

Sans, "tsk tsk. ya shouldn't have done that."

Even though Sans looked like he wasn't upset from hurting his brother, I could see prickles of tears form in his left eye. Even though he was being controlled I could still see that he was upset about what he had done.

Five more Gaster Blasters appeared as I shot a couple at him. I was just trying to make him loose his balance, but that was clearly not working. I was hoping Frisk would do something soon because Sans was slowly gaining the advantage of my lack in ability to dodge. It wasn't long before I was down to one HP.

"Sans. Just let me get that thing off you so you aren't controlled."

Sans, "controlled? who said i was bein' controlled. oh, wait. i did. i already told you that i agreed to the deal. it would be rude of me to back out now."

"Sans. You would never agree to this. Just. . ."

Too late. Sans had another Gaster Blaster out, his expression making him look impatient.

Sans, "listen. i have no time to talk. i need to get back to the base so i can be endlessly tormented with knives. so if ya don't mind-"

I closed my eyes, awaiting the pain of the Gaster Blaster. When I never felt the hit I looked up. Frisk had come up behind Sans and blinded him. She had tied a piece of cloth tightly around the left side of his skull as he launched his Gaster Blaster in panic. Once he was blinded, I ran up to him as he was held down by Frisk I tried to detach the device that held him captive, but it didn't come off.

"It's stuck!"

Frisk, "Let me try."

With ease, Frisk was able to get the device off. Sans' movements slowed as he stopped struggling to get up off the ground. He lay motionless except for his breathing which was in slow, paced breaths. He was asleep.

"He must've used a lot of magic if he's already asleep."

Frisk began to take off the blind fold, but before she could she was impaled with a sharp knife.

I looked up to find. . . Alex?
