Begin chapter 5
Derek was looking straight at Papyrus, looking eager to see how powerful this skeleton can be, and see if it's gonna be a 'good fight.' Papyrus sent out his first attack, with Derek ready, but the attacks were to low for them to touch Derek or even Frisk.
Derek: Uhhh, was that supposed to happen.
Pap: YES!
Derek looked confused, and began to be disappointed. Papyrus looked slightly mad at this, which then he sent out his Fabled blue attack out of nowhere.
Derek: Don't move, Frisk.
The attacks passed right through them, none of them hurting either of them, though most of them we're focused on Derek.
Derek: Hah, looks like you're fabled 'blue attack' didn't wo-
Derek's heart felt cold suddenly, and he was stumbling now.
Pap: Hah, you're blue now.
Derek looked down, and there was a small blue glow coming from his heart, now the attacks that couldn't reach him before,he felt now that his entire body was connected to his soul, meaning that those low attacks could hit him. His soul now feels like it has weight as well.
Derek: Rgh, kid, you alright?
He looked towards frisk, who had the same glow on them. An attack came from Papyrus, the one that couldn't reach Derek or Frisk's soul, but as they loom closer, Derek felt like this was gonna hurt, sliding in front of Frisk to take the hit. Upon touching him, his entire body felt a jolt of pain throughout his body. He clenched his heart, kneeling on the ground. The next one loomed closer to them.
Frisk: Derek, what happened?
Derek: Got hurt by it, don't know what to do, you got a plan?
Frisk thought for a moment, then had an idea.
Frisk: Maybe we just jump them.
Derek: Guess we can try.
The next attack was just about to hit Derek, than Derek sprang up from his kneeling position.
Derek: Good, we may feel completely different in weight, but we can still jump as easy.
Frisk jumped the attack once it reached them.
Derek: Yeah, you got it. Alright, we can-
A random bone hit Derek in the face, knocking him off his feet. He clenched his face in pain. Papyrus looked sorry for this.
Derek: Aaahhahaaa. Damn, that hurt! Ahhahaa…
Frisk: You alright?
Derek sat up, still holding his forehead with his right hand.
Derek: Yeah, I'm ok. Just get ready for the next attack.
Derek stood up, straightening his hat.
Derek: Alright papyrus, I'm ready now.
The fight had really started now, both Frisk and Derek we're dodging attack after attack, only being hit about 3 times out of all of them.
Papyrus: ALRIGHT, HUMANS, IT'S TIME FOR MY SPECIAL ATTACK!
The humans looked prepared to face off against a magic control capable of nearly bending time and space. When Papyrus sent his attack, a dog whimper would be heard.
Derek: What?
Papyrus looked behind him, to see a dog chewing on a bone.
Pap: HEY, THAT'S MY SPECIAL ATTACK, GET OUT OF HERE DOG.
The dog got up and brought the dog with him.
Pap: HEY, GET BACK HERE!
Papyrus sighed heavily.
Pap: I'LL JUST HAVE TO DO A REALLY COOL NORMAL ATTACK.
Papyrus sent out another attack, with a load of random objects being thrown out, including the dog with the bone, than the words spelled out in bones 'COOL DUDE,' they both dodged it, until Frisk got caught on the L, then Frisk took multiple attacks, one after another.
Derek: Frisk! Frisk, you alright!
Frisk looked at Derek, breathing heavily, shivering.
Frisk: Yeah, I'm, I'm…
She fell, face flat on the ground. Derek eyes opened wide, Papyrus stopped all attacks, and begin to smile, while walking towards Frisk. Derek tried to check Frisk's pulse, by what he learned from TV in the coffee shop he went to, and he felt a small pulse.
Papyrus: HAHA, I HAVE KNOCKED OUT THE HUMAN!
Derek: What? You were meaning to knock us out?
Papyrus nodded his head.
Derek: Huh, forgot about that.
Pap: ABOUT WHAT?
Derek: Nothing.
A small dim light of red was lit out, only now of Derek noticing it.
Pap: WHAT WAS THAT?
Derek: I think it was their heart.
Pap: I'V NEVER SEEN THAT BEFORE.
Derek: Huh, well, maybe you're attack has changed since the last time you used it.
Derek picked Frisk up, giving them to Papyrus.
Derek: Well, you captured Frisk, I guess.
Pap: WOWIE! YOU'RE REALLY SURE?
Derek: Yeah, don't worry, Frisk wasn't to upset about the idea anyways, I mean, you're awesome!
Pap: REALLY?
Derek: Mhm, I don't think they will be bothered about being captured by you. But, to be honest, they're not gonna be sent away, right?
Papyrus looked at Frisk in his arms, then shook his head no.
Pap: I MAY BECOME FAMOUS FOR CAPTURING AND SENDING YOU AWAY, BUT I'LL NEVER FIND SUCH FRIENDSHIP!
Derek: Alright, and we'll be you're friend for the price of not sending us away.
Pap: REALLY?! WOWIE! I'VE MADE A FRIEND, NO, TWO FRIENDS!
Derek laughed.
Derek: Yeah, you made some...friends…..you made…..friends.
Pap: WHATS THE MATTER, HUMAN?
Derek: oh, just, the word 'friend,' i havent used that term in a long time, still gives me chills about it.
Pap: WHY, FRIENDS ARE SUCH NICE THINGS!
Derek: It's because I….I used to be friends with some other people, who…. weren't actually friends….
Derek hide his eyes with his hats shadow, putting his hands back in his pockets.
Derek: Don't worry about it, alright? We'll talk about it later...
Papyrus carried Frisk as they walked to his house, looking to his right he saw Derek looking down at the ground while they we're walking, he felt concerned, but felt now wasn't the time to consult a new friend on something bothering them. Papyrus opened the door, letting Derek in first. Derek raised his head, noticing Papyrus was letting him in.
Derek: Thanks.
Derek walked in, turning on the lights, covering his mouth with his fist while yawning.
Derek: So, this is your house, huh?
Pap: YES, THIS IS MY WONDERFUL HOME!
Derek: Neat.
Derek stretches his arms.
Derek: Man, you really tired me out they're, hey, you don't mind if I go to sleep, do you?
Pap: I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, ALLOWS YOU TO SLEEP IN MY HOUSE.
Derek chuckled.
Derek: Thanks, Papyrus.
Derek jumped onto the couch, just now realizing his heart's still blue.
Derek: Hey, papyrus, mind turning this thing off?
Pap: OH, YES, ALMOST FORGOT.
Papyrus tapped Derek's chest, than the blue color would fade.
Derek: Thanks…
Derek closed his eyes, turning to look towards the inside of the couch.
Derek: Thanks, Papyrus.
Derek almost immediately went to sleep, as Papyrus was bringing Frisk upstairs, Sans came out, of his room, closing it behind him.
Sans: Hey, buddy.
Pap: HELLO BROTHER! I HAVE CAPTURED A HUMAN!
Sans: Nice job bro.
Pap: BUT, I HAVE PROMISED THE OTHER HUMAN THAT I SHALL NOT SEND THEM AWAY AS I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HAS BECOME THEIR FRIENDS.
Sans: That's cool, bro.
Paps: WHY ARE YOU OUT HERE? YOU RARELY COME OUT OF THAT ROOM.
Sans: I just came to get something to eat from the kitchen. Been hungry for awhile now.
Paps: PERHAPS I CAN MAKE YOU SPAGHETTI?
Sans: Nah, I'm fine, I just need a quick snack.
Sans gave a slight shrug, then walked off to the kitchen. Papyrus went into the attic, we're he placed Frisk inside the 'cage' in there, having them 'captured.'
Sans: Huh, he actually made friends with them.
Sans looked at Derek at the floor below on the couch, his eyes blackening.
Sans: You're real lucky pal.
His eyes turned back to normal, walking downstairs.
Sans: If things would have gone how I thought it would go, I would have to kill you by now, but you really surprised me kid.
