Chapter four:
Underswap and Undertale Papyrus have been walking for a little longer until they finally come to a stop for a moments break.
"There has to be something around here." Underswp Papyrus says in thought with a hand on his chin.
Undertale Papyrus slightly glances around trying to hopefully spot something only to jump. "Hey." He says getting the others attention. "I think I heard something."
They wait in silence for a moment but nothing happens.
"Maybe it was nothing." Underswap Papyrus offers as an idea.
"Maybe." Undertale Papyrus agrees. "Nyeh heh heh heh! Maybe I scared them off with my magnificence!" He offers as his own idea while standing proud with a hand on his chest.
Underswap Papyrus sighs softly after a moment of staring at the other. "Now you're making me miss my Sans."
Papyrus turns to the other dropping his hand to his side. "Ah. Sorry. We should get going and find our way home."
"Yeah." Underswap Papyrus agrees and they turn away to leave.
Until suddenly a twig snaps somewhere behind them like someone stepped on it as they ran past.
Neither of the Papyruss' had been taken a step when it happened and they spin around but the twig by a darker spot is broken... No one seen.
"Or maybe it wasn't nothing." Underswap Papyrus suggests as they look around the area that had been behind them to see if they can spot movement.
"There!" Undertale Papyrus points in a direction almost in line to be right behind them.
Underswap Papyrus looks in that direction and there is two dark figures with red glowing eyes watching them. He lets his eye glow orange and he summons a Gaster blasted ready to fight. "Who goes there!" He calls as Undertale Papyrus summons some bones just in case they need to fight.
The two fingers begin moving closer but also begin to fan out as if they are going to approach the two from either side. They stay in the shadows watching the two menacingly.
"Don't think we won't defend ourselves!" Underswap Papyrus slightly shouts in warning.
"Hahaha! Is that so?" Underfell Papyrus questions from the side that Undertale Papyrus is on. "Well you better fucking rethink that because I won't show mercy."
Underswap Papyrus glances to who he is sure is Underfell Sans. "And what of you?"
"Eh. A part of me feels too lazy to." Underfell Sans shrugs closing his eyes for a moment. "But why not." He adds as he stops shrugging and his eyes open. "It could get interesting." He slightly lowers his head seemingly going from an innocent yet dark look to a more sinister one. He summons his own Gaster blasters while Underfell Papyrus brings up some glowing red bones with dangerously sharpened tips.
The other two tense getting ready for battle.
The Underfell bros charge beginning the fight.
Sans fires his Gaster blaster at Underswap Papyrus who jumps to dodge only to fire his own Gaster blaster at Sans.
Underfell Papyrus sends some bones flying into Undertale Papyrus's direction pointy end first.
Undertale Papyrus jumps out of the way then sends bones flying towards Underfell Papyrus who blocks them with a single bone of his own.
Underfell Papyrus sends the pointed bones to circle Undertale Papyrus with one swiping his feet out from under him and the other hits him like a baseball bat.
Undertale Papyrus is sent flying into a tree with an audible 'oof'.
Underswap Papyrus watches Sans's movements carefully. "You can stop this. I don't want to fight you."
"Weakness is pitiful here." Sans hisses. "And when you show weakness it's only an encouragement."
"It doesn't have to be." Underswap Papyrus points out. "Come on. You're better than this."
"I'm as good as ever." Sans retaliates. "It's how things are."
Underswap Papyrus sighs at this not noticing that Undertale Papyrus is checking something out while Underfell Papyrus stalks closer. "Different timelines can be so different." He says to himself.
"Hey!" Undertale Papyrus calls getting the Underswap version of him's attention. "I think we can use this." He nods to an opening where white light is coming from.
"Perfect." Underswap Papyrus agrees and lets his Gaster blaster vanish as he races towards it.
"No!" Underfell Papyrus growls and sends some bones flying at them hoping to injure them so the gateway closes before they can reach it. He had noticed how the tear like gateway is closing so all he needs to do is to stop them from getting through it in time. "No one escapes the great and terrible Papyrus!" He declares.
Underswap Papyrus summons his Gaster blaster and fires at the bones destroying them. "Go!" He shouts at his Undertale counterpart.
Undertale Papyrus slips through the opening running off towards the light.
"Oh no you fucking don't!" Underfell Papyrus snarls in rage and sends more bones flying towards Underswap Papyrus.
Underswap Papyrus lets his Gaster blaster fade along with the glow of his eye. He dashes for the opening and finally knows that he has to take a leap of faith if he's going to make it in time. He jumps diving right in the direction of the opening. He tenses hoping that he'll make it. He dives through the opening just in time as it closes behind him.
"No! Fuck no!" Underfell Papyrus yells at this. "FUCK!" He screams and Sans flinches slightly at it. "Fuck this can't happen!"
"Boss." Sans begins but doesn't get time to say another word.
"No! We just lost them! And don't you dare tell me to calm down!" Underfell Papyrus turns to his shorter brother. "I can't believe they got away. Those fuckers."
"Hey come on. Don't rattle your bones about this." Sans says smiling as he tells the pun.
"Sans!" Underfell Papyrus warns. "Don't you start that on me!" He glares at the smaller skeleton who just smiles in return.
"Aw come on Boss. Just smile. It'll make you feel better." Sans encourages still smiling.
Underfell Papyrus lets out a large angered huff then turns away crossing his arms over his chest. "I don't do smiles."
"Sure you don't." Sans responds mostly to himself as his eyes flicker away with a knowing look.
"Grr. Maybe for you." Underfell Papyrus grumbles making Sans chuckle softly. "Anyways let's go." He announces getting Sans to look to him but he has his back to him. "There is nothing for us here anymore." He begins walking away heading to leave the area back the way they came from to head to the sentry post then head to Snowdin.
"Sure. Whatever you say Boss." Sans says with a shrug that he closes his eyes as he shrugs only to open them as his shoulders relax and he heads to follow the taller skeleton off to head back to their home in Snowdin.
