Chapter 2
Jack was trembling. He was filled with anxiety. He went to report the case. But he could not talk well because of how anxious he was. Jack had known Frisk ever since they were kids. They used to play together. Jack admired Frisk ever since he was little. The memories of childhood came flooding back to Jack.
They met for the first time when they were in the first grade. Jack was being bullied by some of the 'cool' kids at their school. Jack always had low self-esteem and would never stand up for himself. The number of his bullies increased each day. Jack was really sad because of this. He wanted them to stop bullying him, but they just would not stop it.
On one fateful day, Frisk was playing in the playground with his friends. Jack was there too, playing only by himself. Jack was looking at the other kids playing with their friends. Jack was envious of others. He wished that he could have friends like that as well.
A few minutes later, Jack's biggest bully, named Astro came up to Jack, along with some others. When Jack noticed Astro, he was extremely scared. Because Astro and his friends beat Jack up multiple times.
"Well, well, well." Astro said. "What do we have here? What re you doing all alone, loser?"
Jack was speechless. He couldn't utter a single word because he was scared of Astro. Astro's friends laughed as Jack was speechless.
"What's the matter?" Astro asked as he laughed. "Cat got your tongue?"
Jack still could not utter a single word. And Astro and his friends continued laughing. Jack looked around. All the kids were gathering around them as Astro and his friends bullied Jack. Some were laughing, and some were just staring.
"Say something, loser." Astro said. "You are such a loser. That's why you don't have any friends."
Jack got enraged by this. He glared at Astro for a few moments. Astro noticed that Jack was angry.
"What are you looking at, you pathetic loser?" Astro said in an angry tone. "Don't look at me like that, you freaking loser!"
Astro punched across Jack's face and Jack fell down on the ground. Jack glared at Astro again. And then Astro and his friends started Kicking all over Jack. Jack was in pain.
"You are a loser! Trash! TRASH!" Astro and his friends yelled as they brutally kicked all over Jack.
"Stop!" A voice yelled out. "Stop this right now or else."
"Huh?" Astro and his friends stopped kicking Jack and looked at the direction where the voice came.
Jack looked that way as well. They all saw Frisk standing there. "Who is that?" Jack thought. None of them knew who Frisk really was.
"Who are you?" Astro asked in an annoyed voice.
"It doesn't matter who I am." Frisk replied confidently. "Just stop bullying the poor guy and leave him alone."
"This is none of your business." Astro replied in anger. "Get lost or you will end up just like this loser. You are a loser too."
"I am not going anywhere." Frisk said confidently. "Just try ganging up on me, loser."
"Okay, you asked for it." Astro replied. "Guys, let's teach this loser a lesson."
Astro and his friends ganged up on Frisk. They threw multiple punches at Frisk, but Frisk dodged them without any effort whatsoever.
"Is that all you got?" Frisk asked. "Or is there more? I can avoid these even if I am asleep."
"Stop dodging, you coward." Astro said. He did not answer Frisk's question. "You are a loser."
"Okay you had your fun." Frisk said. "It's my turn now. Prepare yourselves."
Frisk charged at them and punched them all on the abdomen. They all fell on their knees because of the pain. "Wow. He is too fast. We can't beat him. We should get out of here." Astro thought.
"We'll get you back for this!" Astro said. "We will beat you up next time."
Astro and his friends ran away right after saying that. The crowd that was watching them dissipated and left the place. Jack was in pain. There were bruises all over his body. He was crying.
"Here, stand up." Frisk said to Jack, offering his hand to help him up.
"Thank you!" Jack said as he wiped off tears.
"Let's have the school nurse take a look at you." Frisk said in a cheerful voice.
"Okay." Jack replied happily. "Umm… What is your name?"
"Oh, my name is Frisk Dragonmer." Frisk answered. "What is your name?"
"My name is Jack Tiller." Jack answered in a happy tone in his voice.
The school nurse treated Jack's wounds. And Jack and Frisk became best friends. They spent nearly every day together. Jack was so happy to finally have a friend.
One day, during their soul training class, Jack went up to Frisk and trained with him.
"Frisk, can I ask you something?" Jack asked.
"Sure, what is it?" Frisk said.
"You never told me what your dream was." Jack said. "What is your dream?"
"Oh." Frisk replied. "It is to become a part of the Special Forces. I want to be able to travel all around places and learn more about the world that we live in."
"Wow, that's a wonderful dream!" Jack was surprised to see that Frisk had such a dream. "Well, my dream is to be a high ranking officer in Special Forces."
"That's admirable, Jack." Frisk said. "I hope you accomplish your dream someday."
"I wish the same for you, Frisk." Jack replied with a smile.
Jack was happy to have such a good friend like Frisk. "I will never forget you, Frisk." Jack thought.
"Thank you so much, Frisk." Jack said happily. "You really changed my life."
"Anytime, Jack." Frisk replied with a smile. "Don't worry about it."
"Hello? Excuse me? Hello?" An officer was calling Jack out in the present day. "Why are you spacing out?"
"Oh sorry about that." Jack. "What were you asking again?"
"I was asking you what the name of the missing person is." The officer replied.
"Oh, his name is Frisk. Frisk Dragonmer." Jack said. "He has short, brown hair, a navy blue shirt with dark red stripes."
"Okay." The officer said. "Where did you see him last?"
"I last saw him climbing the Prairia Mountain." Jack answered in a worried voice.
"Okay." The officer replied. "We will have teams to search for this missing person around the Prairia Mountain area. Thank you for the report."
"Thank you." Jack said as he walked out of the building.
Jack was still worried about Frisk. Jack wanted to find Frisk as soon as he could. "Frisk… I can't thank you enough for everything you did for me. I will definitely find you. Please be safe, Frisk." Jack thought.
