Chapter 37

To learn the truth

We teleported, snuck, and crawled our way through the base as quietly as we could. Alarms had long since sounded after our escape and they were hunting us with a vengeance. Lights blared as they ran about looking for us. After two hours things had calmed a bit, but they still kept an eye out for us. I guess they knew something we didn't.

For example...

Where the fucking exit was!

The damn base was larger then we first initially thought. No matter how far we ran or teleported, the rooms seemed to have no end. With how large it was we were unsure if this was one of their main facilities or a smaller branch under their control.

The interior itself was huge in scale. The halls were no bigger then a schools hall way, yet the larger areas varied from gymnasium huge, to football stadium huge! It was jaw dropping and terrifying to say the least.

Oh not for the size of the place, but that is terrifying in itself. But for the large concentration of humans there. In every room, there were priests and even more so their followers. All shaking and doped up in their wonder drugs. Some shook more then others, while some looked more like walking zombies then human. Of the humans that occupied the spaces, most were Americans who had become indoctrinated into the Priests ways. They were scattered throughout the place. Most looked to be normal every day people, others scientists or big time office workers.

It was horrific. How so many people seemed to be so easily swayed into their ways, not knowing the consequence of their choices until it was to late.

As Sans and I crept about, we stayed close to the shadows. Weary of cameras, passerby's, and sentries. However after so many hours had past and we still could not find a way out. There were no windows, nor doors throughout of the place that seemed to lead outside. We noticed huge vents and turbines that seemed to be circulating air throughout the interior, but any other way out seemed almost nonexistent.

Finally we found a small empty passageway far above their mess hall and rested there. Our clothes were filthy from the their hospitality we had received in that room, but now they were more so. Covered in filth and debris from scrounging around on our fronts or teleporitng into areas were it was never cleaned.

But we didn't care about that.

As we rested across from one another in that small area, one thing kept running through our minds.

Was our family really...dead?

Papyrus, the fun loving, sweet, cook. The brother of Sans, the father of my sons, and one of my husbands?

Were our children, who haven't even had the chance to live, really dead?

Goth...Roman?

My precious little sons..

And what about the Temmies and my brother?

Were they dead?

Are we...alone?

Tears ran unchecked down my cheeks and I swiped at them fiercely.

Tears would not save my babies or husband now. It was possible they were still very much alive and were trying to find a way to us. If they weren't... I...would not think of that right now. I had to keep my mind together. I thought harshly to myself as I struggled to keep myself together.

'Frisk?'

I lift my head to look at Sans. He used his thoughts to speak since we both feared even our voices being heard by the priests. If they ever found us...

'Yes dear?'

'I...I'm so sorry that I keep failing you.' His internal voice felt heavy and full of guilt.

I cocked my head at him and smiled faintly. 'My love. You must know that none of this was your fault. You must. You have done what you could. We could not have foreseen...'

'I should have!' He replied fiercely.

I flinched at that as he continued, 'I should have foreseen this. I made the fucking barrier. I was the one responsible for insuring that it kept those fucking freaks out! I should have foreseen this when I decreased the radius of the shields. If...if I just thought it through more, I could have...could have...'

Sans began to shake as he pulls his legs closer to his body. His arms holding onto his legs tightly as he mentally says, 'If I knew...if I only thought about it more...my dear sweet brother...my sons...those poor Temmie and even that fucking weed! Sob...' Magical tears began to fall down his cheek bones as he sobs softly. 'Oh gods and ancestors what have I done! Ohhh fuck! My family! The only fucking thing I had...is...is...ohhhhh fuuuuuucccckkkk mmmeeeee...' His whimpers and sniffles became louder as he struggled to keep it in.

I shivered at the sight of him weeping and felt my lips trembling. The tears I had tried to stop from falling down my cheeks fell anyway at seeing him so upset. Rising slowly and quietly on all fours I trot to him softly before I reached his bent knees. Rubbing my head against his knee caps I whimpered at him until he raised his head. My breath stopped when I saw his anguished face. His tears streaming down like a river as he continued to sniff and shake. His eye sockets empty as he stared back at me.

My heart wrenched at his expression and I let lose a small sob before I threw myself into his arms. He received me readily and we held each other fiercely. We cried for long moments as the possibility of our families death seemed to become more of a possibility. By the time we were done, we were exhausted and soul weary. Our bodies curled into one another as Sans held me tightly as he sat against the cold cement wall. The only thing left from minutes of crying was small shaky sighs and short sniffs.

As the noise from bellow rose and fell due to the humans coming and going we sat quietly above them. Trapped in the nest of the enemy, no clear way out, and heart sore in the fear of our families demise. We were to exhausted to do much more then lay there.

We closed our eyes and allowed ourselves to dream...

…...

We shared a dream.

That is the only way I could describe it.

We shared deep connections with our souls and magical bonds so deep I was surprised it didn't happen sooner.

But there we where. Floating in the darkness together. Nude and curled up with one another. In the dark there was no sound. No feeling other then the other persons presence.

As we laid in the dark, we first felt a pulsing sensation from far off. At first it felt like a steady thrum in the air, like a person playing base from several houses down. Then as seconds past, the thrumming grew and grew. Before long the air was humming with it. Sans and I opened our eyes to see the world around us lighting up as if dawn was rising. The darkness receding slowly, being cased away by touches of red, gold, and orange. The thrumming continued as the light continued to brighten and the darkness slowly vanished completely. As we watched, a great ball of light rose from far away. As it rose higher, the world took on the look of a early morning sky and the ground we laid upon was a field of grass that stretched as far as the eye could see. The grass was golden and it was soft to the touch. Like the fur of a cat or rabbit.

Amazed at the outcome, we stood in the field and looked around us. Nothing else seemed to be there other then the golden field that seemed to go on for infinity.

As I looked about in awe I hear Sans gasp from behind me. I turned to look and gawked as I saw silhouettes appearing where the ball of light shone brightest.

Instantly we knew...who they were.

A tall silhouette followed by two smaller ones no bigger then his hips. Three smaller four legged silhouette followed by one of a flower. They seemed to grow bigger and bigger as if approaching us even though they seemed to stand still.

Then as if by magic hundreds more shadows followed. All different shapes and sizes. They surrounded us on all sides as we spun around to take it all in. The most amazing of all, was that the shadows were mixed with what appeared to be monsters and humans. Both stood side by side and some hand in hand. They approached us quickly behind the seven that were so close and getting closer.

Sans and I grinned at each other as we knew only one explanation for this dream. Our family was alive, and they were coming for us. If that wasn't all, our other friends and family were coming as well.

They would find us.

We laughed out loud at this joyous knowledge and reach out to hold one another. Sans sank bellow the golden flowers before I had a chance to grab him. My eyes widened as my body remained in that position. Standing with arms outstretched waiting to hold someone dear.

And they were no longer there.

Sans...

Was gone.

…...

I awoke with a start and looked around. I was still in the same place where me and Sans had rested, however instead of being in his arms, I was now laying on the filthy floor. Terrified I sprang up and took a step toward the large opening that lead to the mess hall. I wondered if he fell out and over to the hundreds of tables bellow. I stopped suddenly when I hear a faint gasp behind me. Turning swiftly I see Sans struggling against something black that was pulling him into the floor itself. It looked like a wispy black mass just pulling him into the very ground.

Sans eyes were wide as his mouth was being sealed by the black mass that was sucking him down. His hands desperately shaking to grab purchase on a floor that had none. Without thinking I teleported to him and caught his arm. He shook his head ferociously as I held on.

I growled and said, "I will not lose you! I will follow you to the end of the world and to any pit of hell. I don't care Sans! Don't you dare leave me alone! Please!"

His eyes widened as I say this and tears fall from his empty sockets. Then just as suddenly his expression becomes fierce as his markings blazed brightly and his magical eye appeared. With a snarl he tore from the shadows hold and we fell back onto the floor with a thud. The darkness wasen't done as it attacked us with tentacle like whips. We moved to teleport away, but a sudden instinct kicked in as time slowed down.

We weren't going to make it.

Unless...we...

With a snarl I grab Sans and thought, 'Sans! Link with me!'

He didn't have to be told twice.

As we linked up the tentacles reached us, but instead of teleporting, our stones shown brightly as they shielded us from the shadows. It let lose a wail as the light grew and vanquished it immediately.

However it also alerted the Priests and their followers to our location.

Harsh yells and hellish like screams reached our ears as the mess hall became chaotic. As the light faded from around us alarms sounded and we looked at each other.

We had to move.

The acidic sensation in my mouth intensified as me and Sans teleported away quickly. After and hour the priests and their followers were still looking and we were becoming to exhausted to teleport anymore. In the entire time that we teleported around, we had still as of yet, found the exit. Our patience was at an end.

Another hour passes and we found ourselves hiding in a sewer like place. It ranked of things unmentionable and the curved walls were covered in red and green slim of unknown origins. Sans was raking his bony hand behind his skull in frustration as he took in our surroundings.

"Shit!" He said harshly.

I turn to look at him as he continues to curse.

"Shit, shit, shit, and fucking damn, this sucks!" he bends over as he begins to cough violently and I quickly run to him and pull him to me in a gentle hug. He quickly pushes me back as he continues to cough harshly. My heart beat painfully in my chest at his odd behavior, until he looked back at me with a level glare.

"Frisk...I know what your trying to do. But...this..is not the time for it." He breaths out and tries to calm his coughs. "You saw the dream, didn't you? Their alive and their trying to find us. The other monsters are coming, or will come to. We need to either find a safe place to meet them or find them before the fucking priests do." He straightens up before stumbling back a bit and I catch him and hold him close.

He struggles in my arms a bit and growls out,"Frisk! Gods damn it let.."

"Don't Sans." I say quietly.

He stops and looks at me levelly. I shiver and reach out and swiftly pull up his shirt. His swearing gasp echoed throughout the sewer as I caught a glance of what I was afraid to find. He pushes me away and covers himself again. Turning away from me he hunches over as I glare at his back. After a few moments I sighed and said, "When were you going to tell me Sans?"

He snorted and stayed quiet, refusing to say anything.

Sighing I walk up to him again and wrap my arms around his middle. He stiffens as my forehead leans against his back. Tears fall slowly down my face as I said, "Why didn't you tell me how hurt you are...after that thing attacked you..."

"I didn't want you to worry." He said softly abandoning his ruff voice. His posture slumps a bit back into me defeated.

"Idiot." I said harshly as I squeeze him gently. "We're in this together! I...I need you to tell me theses things. Remember what I said in that damn room? I'm not leaving you here, I rather be torn apart then to ever leave you behind."

I rub my forehead across his shoulders as a sob escaped me.

"We do this together Sans! Never do anything alone again! You've done that for to many years. Hiding your sins, never sharing it with anyone! Don't hide this. Please let me help you. Please!"

That last plea echoed throughout the sewer and I felt Sans shiver. Then a sigh escapes him as he pulls away and turns to me. His eyes were dim in his sockets and a small pained smile was etched on his face.

"Frisk...I...damn it...your right." He chuckled a bit before another coughing fit took him. I rubbed his back as he finally catches his breath. "I...I should have been more considerate my love." He leans up and kisses me softly before he presses his forehead against my own. "I guess I am a bone head huh?"

I smirked and said, "The biggest you dork. But lets not think of that and hurry up and fix you up okay? We have to think of a way out you know."

He chuckles again before dissolving into harsh coughing fits that forced him to double over and hold onto his knees. I wait until he finishes, and as he struggles to breath I lift his shirt and take it off of him gently. The damage underneath was revealed as I leaned away and inspected it. Four of his right ribs were broken and shattered. His breast bone was also shattered and fragmented very badly. I shivered at the damage but then found myself freezing as I saw black wisps emanating from the wounds. The creatures gunk, whatever it was, seemed to have seeped into his marrow.

It was poisoning him.

The tears that fell down my face intensified as I looked up into his dim eyes. He smiles faintly and reaches out to hold my furred cheeks gently. His thumbs rub small circles on my cheek bones as I close my eyes and feel his assurance spread through me. As my eyes reopen I see his mouth opening as he was about to speak.

"GGRrraaaggggffrraaahhhhh!"

We froze as a horrifying sound reaches us. Turning sharply we see an enormous shadowed mass of something coming toward us.

Fast!

We turned and began running down the sewer as fast as we could. Our power of teleportation was to low to use it. Running was our only option now. Another shriek from the mass caused a harsh shiver to flash up my spine as I focused on running faster. Thorough my panic filled mind I felt Sans pain as he struggled to keep up. I turned to see that he was lagging further behind then I initially thought. As I saw him struggle, my eyes inadvertently turned to see the creature behind him. They widened as they saw what looked like a large living pile of shit with hundreds of assorted eyeballs decorating its body chasing behind us at a frightful speed. It slithered after us, its mass extending for many yards down the sewer piping.

Fear ate at me as I saw Sans stumble a bit and I took action at once. Stopping and pivoting around, I turn and ran back to Sans. I reached out and picked him up bodily and rolled him onto my back.

"WaahhH! Fucking! Ahh!" He cursed as the roll didn't help his wounds.

I didn't give a fuck.

I turned again and raced down the sewer as fast as I could with my precious cargo cursing on my back. I held onto his legs tightly on my sides until he could get a descent grip. Then I transitioned from running on two legs to running on all fours. Pumped my muscles as fast as I could. Sans sat on me and leaned over until his head almost touched the back of my neck. The hunched over position didn't help his ribs, but when your the same size its a bit hard to find purchase.

As I thought that I found myself growing. My body rose as my limbs became longer and even more powerful. My front arms wobbled and forced me to fall back onto two legs as I continued to tear down the sewer piping. Twisting and turning as fast as I could down the labyrinth of a sewer system. The power continued to grow and a blue crystal light began to flash around my person.

As I ran, I instantly knew that whatever was attached to me was here with me right then. It was trying to help me. I could feel the sensation deep in my soul. A powerful stirring. Focusing all my might on that power I reached out to it. My mind open and my soul a living vacuum as I tried to draw more power deep into me.

As I felt it filling up I heard an odd typing sound and the words, " Be careful Frisk, You can only take in so much. Without help, you'll tire yourself out to quickly to protect yourself and those you love."

I sniffed as I continued pulling power and retorted, 'I must protect those I love! I can't...I don't want to lose him!'

A feeling of understanding filled me as the typing sound answered. "Their coming Frisk. Your not as alone as you think. Hold on just a bit longer. Your almost there."

'Where!'

The typing sound was becoming faint as it gave its final reply, " The place were you will learn the truth."

As the sound faded from my mind I found that I was no longer running, but flying! I flew over the slime and muck of the sewer. Flew so fast, that the tunnels around me was a blur. A blue light surrounded me and I looked back at Sans he stared back at me with wide eyes and a small smile on his face as he clutched tightly to me. He rested on, what seemed to be, a bed of glowing white feathers. I turned my head as I and saw the end of the sewer tunnel. It rushed up quickly as I flew toward it. A flash to my right revealed another way out. It was a smaller secondary tunnel. As I neared it the shit monster let lose a roar that shook the very air. Ignoring it I focused on getting to that tunnel. Finally reaching it, I turned a sharp right and entered the tunnel. Seconds later a loud crash emanates from behind me followed by an intimidate silence. However it was quickly destroyed when a loud flooding like sound emerged from behind me. The sound rose quickly and I didn't need to look back to know that the thing was still after me. The crystal blue light emanating from my body made the tunnel glow brightly as I zoomed down its path.

My mind on one thing.

To get us the fuck out of there.

Suddenly another light glowed before me revealing another way out. It was tunnel leading straight up. I knew in that moment that the being, whatever they were, was leading me to my destination. Where I would learn my answers.

When I reached close enough to enter the entrance the creature let loose a horrid gargling roar. I took off up the shaft and poured all my power into racing up and up and up.

The creature didn't follow as it retreated from the light from above. The light emanating from the top of the shaft was bright and blinding as I shot straight up as fast as I could. Finally something told me to brace myself, and I curled my head and braced my shoulder forward to take the full impact. A second later a high pitched crash erupts around me as I slammed my shoulder into a glass barrier. I spread my arms out and heard a flapping sound as I curled my arms down and back up again. I opened my eyes and saw a mirrored reflection of the creature I had become. A giant white eagle with cockatoo like fringe and a long swan like neck rising from a sea of glass. On my back Sans eyes looked back into my large glowing orange ones as he continued to hold tightly with all his might.

I spun in the air and it felt as if gravity had no control over me. Light as air is the closest I could describe the weight I felt as I turned and flew up gracefully. As the glass settled on the ground bellow us I took a few moments to take in the room I had entered. It was a large mirrored dome. The size was so massive that to describe it...I would compare it to a planetarium with hundreds of extra feet of ceiling.

"What the hell is this place?" Sans said amazement, his voice echoing off the mirrors oddly.

"I...I don't know Sans." I said softly, feeling uncomfortable with being there. It felt...wrong.

"Frisk...I...I think we should..." Sans said but was cut off as the mirrors blinked and the light from the ceiling above us suddenly cut out. Suddenly the mirrors flashed and on their faces static appeared. It was as if they had became hundreds of televisions. The sound of the static, reverberated annoyingly around us. Suddenly they become dark as a faint sound of scratching started. Then a voice. It was faint at first, but then begins to grow.

"I...want to...Is it possible? Well...hurt..." I cocked my head as Sans grunted and readjusted himself on my back and looked around.

"I want...so...to be...with him..."

My heart stuttered as if I knew what was coming next. A type of unknown fear of something that you can't describe.

"Sans...I want...to do...story...about...Sans...and...Frisk..."

We froze as we heard this. Slowly on a far wall and image appeared. It looked like a slightly cluttered desk with a fair big flat screen tv sitting on its surface. A writing program was open and it was blank.

"Okay..I can do this! Just five chapters! That's all I need to tell the story...five chapters!"

The voice was female, younger? Older? It wasn't very clear, but I knew that she had to be responsible for this...for all this.

The horror in my chest rose.

Suddenly the page was instantly filled and a sigh emanated all around us.

"Wow I'm done...well...lets see what happens." The image vanished and we watched her posting the story on various sites. Watched as we heard her gasp as the first reviews appeared.

" make more you little bitch this is good shit and i will kill you if you stop! someone called said. The first review.

" This is amazing...um if you uh don't mind but will there be more? I hope there will be..." Said another person called Rosie Vulpes.

" oh my god that was awesome! please PLEASE continue!" said Piro darkness.

Many more of theses comments continued appearing and it seemed to fill the woman with delight. It pushed her to continue writing. She added her feelings, experiences, and emotions to the story. And slowly, it grew.

I watched as my life...my existence was written out from chapter to chapter. From the moment we walked from the mountain top, to now. I watched as every emotion I felt was written out for the world to read.

I felt myself descending from the air and touch the cold surface of the floor.

My heart was heavy.

My mind blank.

Everything I was...everything I thought I was...was a lie. I didn't even exist? Then what...what was I...really?

Before I knew it I shrank and shrank until a grunt emanated from behind me as Sans slid from my back and walked to my front. His eyes widened as he watched me transform back to what I really was.

An eighteen year old human woman.

At the time I didn't even know that's what I did. But there I was, a nude human woman with wide alien orange eyes staring up at what really created me.

I had no parents.

No real family to find and ask questions.

I was a fiction...a fake...an idea made up of nothing more then words on a screen.

This was what the Priests meant by calling me the child of an outsider...I wasn't really a part of this world.

"Frisk!...Frisk!" I heard Sans say. I turned to look him in the eyes. My own flat and emotionless as another thought entered my mind. As it grew I saw his eyes reflect that he knew what realization I had come to.

"You knew about this didn't you?" I said softly, my heart braking at the thought that he kept such a thing from me.

He looks at me levelly, before pulling me close to his wounded chest and holds me tightly. He whispers against my brown hair, "I knew. I knew about the outsider. But I never knew what would happen next. Every day I was on edge on what she would do to us. I still am."

"That's what you kept from us? Me and Papyrus and..."

"Yes Frisk. But I said I would tell you when this was all over. Baby you have to understand I would not keep this if I knew the truth would be useful or necessary. To learn something like this destroyed my imagination that I had free will. But...I didn't want you to feel that way. That's why...why I kept it hidden for this long."

Sans...my love...but...did I really love him? Was it just something I was written to do...or...do I love him?

In my heart I felt out my feelings and knew...yes...I did...it didn't matter if I was written to love him or not...I loved him so much. I loved him and his brother and our children so very much.

But...what could we do? What choices did we have now if we are just written to do what someone else wants us to do?

What now?

"Frisk?"

I raise my head and stare at Sans face. His eyes still faint from pain, but his teeth moving up into a tight smile.

"I don't care if we are written up or whatever. If nothing else..I want you to know I love you so very much baby. Gods Frisk, I love you so much." He takes a hold and leans close to me. The invisible lips that I had always felt from him before brushes my lips and deepness his kiss.

Blinking back tears I reach for him and pull him closer to me and kiss him back. Our tongues meet and brush and stroke. I moan as I wished to only forget what I had learned. To forget and desperate to go back to the time when I was ignorant of the knowledge of my creation.

However, weather it be the outsider, or fate...one of them was a huge bitch.

A snickering sound surrounded us as we quickly separated and looked around. As the room grew darker I felt a chill as Sans made an exclamation before a blast of pain shot through my stomach.

Sans body was pressed intimately close to mine, but it was thanks...to the long sword sticking through both of us.

(Okay...that was...odd. To tell the truth I really didn't have much of an idea for this chapter other then a few base things I wanted to have happen. But I kinda think I got my point across. I hope people don't become angry with my choice of how to go about this. This was my idea all along and I kinda wanted to bring a fair interesting point down, but plan to do that in either the next or later chapter. If you guys like, please comment, I really do enjoy reading them and get so much pleasure from seeing them. It makes me know you guys are still interested in my work. Please respond with your feelings on this chapter and based on them I will probably make some changes. If you guys have any ideas for what should happen next please write them down :3

Anyway I love you guys lots and hope with all my heart to see ya again next chapter. Until them my lovely readers. :D)
