" 😐︎✋︎😞😞👈 ️ 📬 ✡🏳️🕆 😐✋😞😞 👈👎 👇👈*" something faintly hissed in Lady's subconscious.

Startled by the noise, the Ghostly girl leapt 2 feet in the air, then seeing that she and frisk appeared to be alone, floated sheepishly down to the ground again. "Frisk? did you say something? I thought I heard a whisper." Lady asked.

Frisk shrugged. "No, but don't you have better hearing than me? it must've just been the wind in the branches." The boy said casually.

"Hmm. That's strange, I could've almost sworn I heard a voice say something... but the words were hard to make out, I know it was important, and I had what they said on the tip of my tongue... but it's gone now. On the other hand, it was probably just my overactive imagination. Nevermind " Lady said and the 2 continued on their walk through the powdery snow until Frisk came across a sturdy looking branch in the path.

Frisk tried to pick the branch up, but had little success. "Oh well, I guess it's too heavy for me." Frisk said disappointed, and then he got an idea. "Hey, maybe you can use it as a walking stick Lady!" he said.

Lady sound that she could easily lift the stick and shrugged. "Ok, I can't float around all the time, and this looks sturdy enough. plus it'll help if I run outta energy and am forced to turn back into a human." She said, and walked with frisk for a bit when suddenly Lady stopped again as she suddenly saw her breath come out of her mouth in a small wisp. "I didn't think it was that cold out here. Unless..." she muttered to herself, and then became suddenly very alert and stiffened up.

"Hey, why'd you stop? did you hear the voice again?" Frisk asked, puzzled by the Ghost girl's actions.

"We're being followed by someone and/or something." Lady said calmly.

"What?!" Frisk exclaimed, alarmed.

"I can't be sure, but I think it might be-" Lady began, but she was cut off by a familiar voice from behind her and Frisk.

"Human. Don't you know how to great a new pal? Turn around and shake my hand!" the voice called out merrily, and Lady and frisk turned around to be greeted by a smiling skeletal face.

"I'm Frisk." Frisk introduced himself and reached out and politely shook the Skeleton's hand, only to be surprised by the sound of a whoopee cushion going off.

"Hehehe... the old whoopee cushion in the hand trick! it's ALWAYS funny! Anyways, you're another human right? That's hilarious! I'm Sans. Sans the Skeleton. " Sans introduced himself, then paused, and a look of recognition flashed across his face when he noticed Lady. "Hey, you're the halfa I meat from earlier! Lady right? I guess she finally got around to changing your main location from the ruins. Hehe. Took her long enough." Sans said, fishing out a bill and tossing it into the conveniently located jar that happened to be nearby.

"Erm, Lady, what's he talking about?" Frisk asked, puzzled by Sans's last statement.

Lady shrugged. "Beats me, that' guy's got so many terrible jokes roaming inside his skull that some of them must've become inside jokes." She said, and added "Sans, what're you doing out here in the snow? you must be chilled to the bone!"

Sans smiled again. "No worries, no body ever bothers me out here. Anyways, I'm supposed to be on the lookout for humans...or Half-humans I guess... But...y'know...the thing is, I don't really care about capturing anybody. Now my brother, Papyrus...He's a human hunting FANATIC! Hey, actually I think that's him over there. I have an idea. go through the gate thingy. Yeah, go right through. My brother made the bars too wide to really stop anyone." Sans said, and he Lady and Frisk all walked quickly through the gate to the other side of the bridge. "Quick, Behind that conveniently shaped lamp!" Sans suggested, and Frisk hid behind the lamp that was standing outside for some reason. Lady saw that there was nowhere to hide, and quickly turned herself invisible. Sans rolled an eye at Lady's sudden shyness, but said nothing of it. "S'up bro?" he called out as Papyrus approached him.

"You know what's "S'up" brother! It's been 8 days, and you still haven't... Recalibrated. Your. Puzzles! You just hang around outside your station! What are you even doing?! " Papyrus scolded his brother irately.

"Staring at this lamp. it's really you wanna look?" Sans asked.

"No! I don't have time for that! what if a human comes through here?! or worse, the Halfa! I want to be ready! I will be the one, I must be the one! I will capture a human! or the Halfa! then I, the Great Papyrus... will get all the things I utterly deserve! Respect, Recognition, I will finally be able to join the Royal guard! People will ask to be my "friend?" I will bathe in a shower of kisses every morning! " Papyrus lamented.

"Hmm, maybe this lamp will help you..." Sans hinted, but as usual the hints went over Papyrus's skull.

"Sans! you are not helping you lazybones! all you do is sit and boondoggle! you get Lazier and Lazier every day! " Papyrus scolded Sans again.

"Hey, take it easy, I've got a ton of work today! a skele-ton!" Sans said, and winked at an invisible audience before tossing a coin into a nearby jar.

"Sans!" Papyrus exclaimed.

"Common, you're smiling." Sans teased his brother.

"I am and I hate it! Sigh... Why does someone as great as me have to do so much just to get some recognition?" Papyrus ask tiredly.

"Wow, sounds like you're really working yourself to the bone!" Sans punned and tossed another coin into the jar.

"Ugh! I will attend to my puzzles. As for your work? put some more backbone into it! nyehehehe! Heh!" Papyrus chuckled and went off to check his puzzles.

Lady turned herself visible. "Really? that's your brother? bad jokes must be hereditary." the Halfa said with a smirk and an eye roll.

"No worries, Pap's puns are more bad than his bite. Anyways, you can come out now Frisk!" Sans said and Frisk walked from out behind the lamp and curiously did some quick looking around. When Frisk was done exploring, Sans advised "You both oughta get going. he might come back. And if he does... you guys'll have to sit through more of my hilarious jokes. Anyways, I'll be up ahead. see you guys around!"

"Ok, see you!" Lady responded.

"Bye Mr. Sans!" Frisk added, and he and Lady continued their journey.
