Author's Note: Hey guys. I might not be as consistant as I've been being with new chapters published every day. School starts back for me tommorrow, unfortunatly. I'll do my best to get new chapters out every day. So if I skip a day, don't be mad. I'm probably dying from excessive homework if I skip days. Seventh Grade can be hard sometimes. Anyway, enough rambling! Let's get on with the chapter, shall we?

Chapter 4

"You can't just disturb a class like that! It shows absolutely no respect for the students who actually want to learn! And Chara! I expected better from you! What has gotten into you young lady?! I'll be calling both of your parents and I'll let them decide the punishment." The principal was standing angerly at his desk, with Frisk at his side. "Spirit this is why I told you to stay put! So you wouldn't get in trouble!" Frisk said as he glared at Spirit. Chara turned to Spirit and gave her a small piece of paper with a phone number on it. "Call me after you're done getting your lecture at home," she whispered. "Ok. I will," Spirit whispered back. Sans and Toriel walked in side by side. Spirit could tell by looking at Toriel's expression she was furious. "Chara. We're going home. We... will discuss the punishment when we get there." she said, trying not to look as angry as she was. Oh boy. I feel kinda bad for Chara. She wasn't kidding when she said her mom was gonna kill her when she got home. Spirit thought. Sans looked like he simply didn't care. After a long lecture and scolding from Toriel and Sans, Spirit and Chara went home with their families.

On the way home Sans stopped and said, "I know grounding you ain't an option. I learned the hard way you can't ground anyone with a determination soul. It never works. So... the only thing you have to do when we get home is take a bath. Seriously, you look like a street rat. Ok?" "Deal." she said. They eventually came home. Do I really look that bad? she thought. She held up her paw and sniffed it. It smelled like it was death itself. O..kay... I smell awful. Sans wasn't kidding. I bet I look as bad as I smell... she thought, her nose wrinkling. She immedietly went upstairs to the bathroom and shut the door. She locked it and took off her jacket. By the bathtub, she saw a gallon of pet shampoo. Guess Sans must have bought this while I was sleeping, she thought. She turned on the water and waited for the bathtub to fill up. Once she was satisfied with the temprature, she climbed inside. She poured a good amount of shampoo in the water with her. She was actually shocked and kinda concerned at the amount of fleas and dirt that she washed out of her fur. She felt a jagged range of pain down her back. When she touched it, she looked back at her paw. It was covered in yellow infection liquid mixed with blood. Gross. I must have accidently reopened a cut on my back. she thought. She tried to clean the wound, but it stung and burned every time she touched it. She gave up and got out of the bathtub. She started to dry off. She looked in the mirror. She saw someone else in the mirror behind. She blinked. It was gone. She looked at where she felt the pain, using the mirror trick. She saw a huge jagged cut running down her back. She could tell by simply looking at it that it was infected very badly. She wrapped the towel around herself to cover it. She grabbed Chara's number from her coat pocket and walked downstairs to the couch. Sans was sitting at the end. Sans looked over at her. "Alright, what did you do this time?" he asked. The blood must have stained the towel, because he said, "How did you get hurt this time? I'll call Tori to come heal you... again..." So Toriel healed me the first time. she thought.

Some time has passed when Spirit heard knocking at the door. "I'll get it." Sans walked over to the door. Spirit saw Toriel standing in the doorway, along with Chara and Asriel. Spirit was lying on her stomach on the couch as they came in. "What did she do this time?" Toriel asked as she inspected Spirit's wound. "Ask her. I honestly have no idea what she did to get a cut that nasty." Sans said. Toriel began to use her healing magic on it. It stung a little less, but Toriel sighed and said, "I can't heal it. Strange." Instead she grabbed bandages and began to wrap them around Spirit. Fortunatly, the cut began below her shoulders, so her wings weren't pinned to her sides by the bandages. "Since I can't heal it for some reason, you'll simply have to let it heal naturally. Oh and her HP dropped to 70 because of whatever she did to herself." Toriel said. 30 HP lost??? That's way too much HP to lose over a stupid cut reopening, she thought. "Hey, I never got your name earlier," Chara said. "It's Spirit." she said. "Oh ok. I need you and Frisk to meet me at the park. Call me when you're both ready." Chara said.

Toriel, Chara and Asriel stayed a while to visit. They left when it was almost dark out. Spirit looked over at the wall phone. "FRISK! YOU READY TO GO?!" Spirit screamed. She hoped her voice drowned out the rock music he was blasting in his room."YES! GIVE ME A MINUTE AND I'LL BE DOWN THERE!" Frisk yelled back. The music stopped and Frisk came dashing down the stairs. Spirit dialed the numbers to Chara's phone.
