Chapter 7: Let's be Friends!

(Lucy's P.O.V)

"So big bro, what's next now?" I asked my brother as we passed the puzzle that the skeletons had set up for us. It was a color puzzle, whit colors that each had their own meaning. The large one, Papyrus I think, kept talking about the colors and their meanings, but got lost halfway I figured out. It was really funny, seeing him talk to so much, and then got completely lost about it. He asked us if we understood it, and when I said yes, he smiled and started the puzzle. The colors kept switching, and after a while it ended with almost all red blocks, but it was a straight pink line for big brother and I to follow. We just stood there, and Papyrus just started to spin away from where. I let out a small laughter, it was just so hilarious to watch. He did all that, and when it came to the random part, it was just the easiest of them all.

"Well, that sure was something. See ya later Kiddos" Sans said as he looked at us, before turning around and walked away, following after Papyrus. I smiled, seeing how calm he looked at this whole thing. I had a feeling like he wanted to be happy, but from the looks of it, he didn't seem really happy for some reason. I turned towards my brother and saw that he seemed annoyed as he was rubbing his forehead in what seemed to be annoyance. I tilted my head to the side of confusion and just started at him. He just looked down on me, moved his hand away and patted my head, giving me a small smile. I giggled, feeling his cold and soft hand ruffling my hair.

"Better get going sis" He said to me as he moved his hand away and walked after where the two others went. I nodded and walked up beside him. We had done mostly every puzzle that Papyrus had made for us. Except for this color puzzle, he had made us some X and O kind of puzzle. I didn't really know how to do it on the first try, and I think he saw me having some problems, since he came out from somewhere and told me on how to solve it. After telling me how, I tried it again and managed to do it oddly well, because I thought it was a bit challenging, but it was really easy. I smiled as Papyrus told me that I did well, before he sprinted away from us, most likely making some more. And I was right. After just a small walk it was another one like the one earlier just waiting for us there. This one seemed to be a bit more difficult, since it was ice covering almost every single X on the ground. I looked around and tried to understand on how to solve it.

"Here, let me do it for you Lucy, I see how it can be solved" He said as he let go of my hand and walked over to the top of the ice with two X's close to each other. "Hey sis, watch me skate." He stepped onto the first the X, which turned towards an O and then he started sliding on the ice towards the next plate. When he got there he just stepped on the other one with his left foot and used it to push him towards the next one which was in the bottom corner. He kept doing that for the entire puzzles. I looked at him closely and I could see a small smile appear on his face. Big bro sure seems to enjoy this, it makes him happy it seems. I looked back at him and saw he was standing on the last plate, all the other X's had been turned to a O. He turned towards me and bowed.

"And that was my skating show. Come on sis" He said to me as he waved his hand towards me. I smiled and walked to in front of where he was and started to slide carefully towards where he was standing. When I was almost hitting him, he opened his arms and pulled me close, making space for both of us on that plate.

"Now what big bro? What to do?" I asked him as I looked around, seeing the entire puzzles being done. He smiled and pointed towards what seemed to be a many trees covering a small lane of ice.

"If we press that button over there, and slides after it, we will get close to town, almost there now" He said as he turned towards a small button standing right in front of the ice path and slided towards it. As his foot made contact with the button, a small clicking noise could be heard from the button and then it went silent. He just laughed and kept sliding down the path. I gulped, breathed out and slowly started to slide after him and didn't move my legs, as I felt that I just kept sliding no matter what. I could see Lucas standing on a snow path a bit ahead, and was just standing there waiting on me. I smiled as I kept sliding towards him, feeling the small cold breeze hitting my face with a ticking feeling.

"Yay! This is fun! Look at me!" I said as I slided towards him, a small giggling escaping my lips. I felt my feet starting to slow down as the ice started to disappear and get replaced by snow. I stepped over at the snow and smiled. "That was so much fun!" I looked at Lucas and saw a small snowman being placed at his head. I tilted my head and pointed at his head. "Hey big bro, you got a snowman on your head!" He tilted his head down, and the snow just collapsed together.

"Yeah, had a feeling it was on my head" He said as he pointed at my head. "And you have a small snow flower on your head sis." I tilted my head down, and felt a bit of snow falling down. I laughed and wiped the last snow of my head before looking back at him. "We are getting closer now" He turned around, looking around at the area around us, which was surrounded by small snow puffs. I nodded and walked up beside him.

"Yeah! Let's go big bro! I want to be their friend!" I said as I started to joyfully jump around the snow, looking curiously at the snow puffs. "They are so nice people, so I want to be their friend!" I carefully touched one of the snow puffs, and a small white dog jumped straight out of it, looking at me. I moved my hand away for a second, the dog surprising me with him walking closer to me. I smiled a bit, hearing my brother pass me and that he kept walking. I stretched out my hand carefully, really wanting to pet that dog. The dog barked softly and walked closer to my hand, walking under it and I felt his fur against my palm. I laughed and rubbed his back.

"Hey there little one. You are so cute!" I said as I moved my hand away and looked at it. The dog barked happily to me and turned around, running the direction where me and Lucas came from.

"Hehe, gotten yourself a new friend sis?" Lucas asked me as I walked back up to him. I just smiled and nodded my head, stopping up right beside him and looked ahead. Standing or hanging right in front of us was a hang bridge with Sans and Papyrus standing at the edge waiting for us. I grabbed my brothers hand and tighten the grip, looking down the bridge and immediately pulling my head back, feeling dizzy from just looking down. There was no end there, just one big fall if I took one wrong step.

"STOP RIGHT THERE HUMANS! GET READY FOR MY FINAL PUZZLE!" Papyrus said to us as we started to slowly walk on the bridge, stopping halfway on the bridge. "VERY WELL! SANS, ACTIVE THE PUZZLE!" Looking at Sans, I saw that he shrugged and pressed a small button on a device and clicking noises was heard around me. I looked over us and saw a giant spike ball and spear swinging back and forth over us. I looked under us quickly and saw a torch with flames spitting out of it, another spear and a cannon pointed at us.

"B-big bro! T-that's scary" I whispered to Lucas as I looked back up and saw the dog from earlier hanging by a rope over us. "A-and, why is the dog h-here?" He looked towards where I was looking, and I saw a small smile spread across his face.

"Don't worry sis, they won't hurt us with that puzzle, trust me" He said as he took my hand and smiled at me. I nodded to him and looked back at Sans and Papyrus.

"So bro, you going to activate it?" Sans asked him as he put down the button he had just used to bring the puzzle forth. Papyrus looked like he was unsure on what to do now. I tilted my head in confusion on what he was going to do.

"OF COURSE I'M DOING IT! I'M ACTIVATING IT NOW!" Papyrus said as he stood there, just looking at us. I waited for something to happen with any of the traps, but nothing really happened. I looked back at Lucas, a confused look at my face. He just shrugged back at me, seeming to not be sure about what just happened either. I looked back at papyrus and saw that he was being nervous.

"Umm, that doesn't look really activated to me" Sans said to him as he laughed. "You sure you are going to do it?" Papyrus turned towards Sans and just glared at him.

"OF COURSE I'M SURE! I JUST KNOW THEY WILL WALK RIGHT TO THIS PUZZLE AS THEY DID WITH ALL THE OTHERS. SO DON'T WANT TO WASTE THEIR TIME" He said to sans as he pressed a button, and I saw that the traps started to disappear as he turned around and walked away from us. I took a step forward, wanting to stop him and tell that I would take the puzzle if that's what he wanted us to do, but I felt someone grab my shoulder. I turned around and saw that Lucas held me back.

"We will meet him again Lucy, just you wait." He said to me as he let go of my shoulder and started to walk over the bridge, trying to not look at Sans. I still wonder what's the deal with that. I shrugged and walked right behind him, looking at Sans with curiosity. Looking at him, I could see that the moment I looked at him, he gave me a small smile before staring at my brother. I stopped in front of Sans and just looked at him.

"Uhh, anything you want kid?" Sans asked me as he looked at me with curiosity. "You look like you have something on your mind" I shook my head and smiled to him.

"Oh no, nothing is wrong sans. Don't worry!" I said as I turned around and walked after Lucas. Looking around me, I saw a small sign pass as we walked forward. The sign just straight out said: Welcome to Snowdin town. "Hey big bro! Are we finally here?!" He looked at me with a small smiled and nodded.

"Yeah sis, we are finally here" He said to me as he ruffled my head. "So now, let's go look around. Who knows, maybe we will find something interesting." I nodded happily and followed after him through the town. It was pretty big, to be a town which was underground. Looking around I saw a couple of people walking around, talking to each other. As we kept walking, I saw what looked to be a small store.

"Hey big bro, can we look there?!" I asked him excitedly. I always wanted to check things out here, but we were always walking around, so we didn't stop to look or take a break. "I want to look what is in there!" He sighed and nodded his head. I smiled and walked to the door, opening it slowly. Looking inside, I saw a woman standing by the counter, smiling to me as I came in and looked around. Walking up to the counter, I looked at the wares, and saw what looked to be an orange and brown bandana. I smiled, thinking on how it would fit me well. Steps sound appearing beside me and a hand on my shoulder made me get out from the thoughts.

"So sis, found anything interesting" He asked me, a small laughter in his voice as he put his arm around me. I nodded and pointed at the bandana hanging at the wall. "Hehe, okay, I'll get it for you. Excuse me miss, but how much for that?" The woman behind the counter smiled and looked at the banana behind her.

"Oh this thing? It's 30G for that one kids. Do you have it?" She asked my brother. I was curious, since I wasn't sure how much 30G would be, or If we had any on us. I looked at my brother with a curious look, since I would like to know how he got it.

"Yeah, hold on." He put his hand in his pocket, and pulled out three small golden coins and put them on the counter. "Here, think that's enough?" The lady looked at the coins, smiled and took them and put them under the counter.

"Yeah, that's just enough" She said as she turned around, took the bandana of the wall and gave it to me. "So here you go. Thank you for the trade." I smiled and took the bandana and put it around my face, covering my mouth. I turned towards Lucas and winked at him. He just laughed and took my hand.

"Hehe, aren't you a silly kid? Come on Lucy, let's go and look around" He said as he used his other arm to open the door and stepped outside, dragging me with him. I had to laugh at it, showing that he was really carefully and wanted me to be safe. I could understand that, but I'm 11, almost 12 now, so I could take care of myself. I looked at him with an angry expression before smiling again.

I will prove I can take care of myself, I don't need you for everything big bro.

So now they are finally arrived. Now what will happen later? Hehe, only time will tell. See you guys next week!
