Frisk sat up in her bed. After attempting to escape her room twice, she decided that it wasn't worth the effort to try again. She rubbed her eyes and checked her bedside alarm clock.

"6:59"

Frisk groaned and plopped back onto her bed.

The alarm clock began to make a loud and shrill sound. Frisk jerked awake, as did Flowey. Frisk's hands instinctively reached for the alarm clock. She hit a small button on the top of the clock and the alarm stopped. Frisk sighed.

"7:01"

Flowey stared at the alarm clock in anger. "What the heck! I didn't see anyone do anything with that thing," Flowey huffed.

The door opened. Toriel was on the other side of the door. She smiled at Frisk. "Breakfast is ready, Frisk."

Frisk nodded and grabbed Flowey's flowerpot.

"What are you doing? I wanted to sleep!"

"So you don't want breakfast, Flowey," Toriel asked.

Flowey stiffened. "Well, I can't want anything, but breakfast sounds like a good idea."

The alarm clock once again made a shrill sound. A wispy blue spear shot up from the ceiling, destroying the clock.

Frisk clutched the flower pot, slightly shivering with fear. She was now fully awake.

Toriel gave an awkward chuckle. "C-Come on my child." She quickly ushered Frisk downstairs. A plate of basic breakfast foods was sitting at the table. A small brown paper bag and a book bag also sat on the table. "I have gotten your stuff ready. I got some advice from some of the humans in my class." She smiled at Frisk.

Frisk walked over to the table and set the flower down. She sat down and began to eat.

"Hey! Where's my food," Flowey demanded.

"Oh, don't think I forgot about you." Toriel brought Flowey a plate of food, similar to Frisk's.

"Thanks." A vine moved towards a fork and picked it up. Flowey began to shovel food into his mouth.

"Once you are done eating, you need to get changed," Toriel commanded. She smiled and walked away.

The two finished eating. Frisk put the two plates in the sink and walked upstairs. She grabbed a striped sweater and a pair of jeans. Frisk walked into the bathroom and got changed. She walked back downstairs.

"Flowey?"

Flowey looked at Frisk. "What," he asked irritably.

"Would you mind going to school with me?"

Flowey sighed. "What's your deal with trying to make me go?"

"Well, you are still a kid," Frisk muttered. "Whether you're a flower or not."

"But I may never be a kid. All of this would not help me."

Frisk nodded. "I know." She looked to the ground. "But that isn't the only reason."

Flowey raised an eyebrow. "What's the reason?"

Frisk pointed to her eye and a couple of faded bruises on her arms.

Flowey nodded in understanding. "I got'cha. You want to take me so that I can scare them." Flowey grinned. "And you knew that if you told someone else, they would kill, am I right?"

Frisk nodded. "You have to be on your best behavior and you don't really care about my well-being. The other monsters are fiercely protective of me. I'm scared that the other kids'll get hurt."

"Who says I won't tell Sm- I mean, Sans if anything happens?" Flowey grinned evilly. "Sounds like a fun time to me."

Frisk frowned. He pouted at the flower. "Please..."

Flowey sighed. "Fine, but if there's a dessert that comes with your lunch, it belongs to me."

Frisk grinned. "Yay!"She glanced at her book bag then back at the plant. "Now how do I get you to school?"

Flowey and Frisk sat there pondering for a minute. Frisk noticed a plastic shopping bag nearby. Flowey also seemed to understand the plan.

"Go ahead Frisk."

Frisk grinned and carefully placed the flower inside of a plastic bag. She looked to a nearby clock. The larger hand was somewhere between the numbers 11 and 12. The smaller hand was on the number 7.

If the bus came at 8:00... then she was nearly late!

Frisk fumbled around with various bags, trying to grip them all well before attempting to run out the door. As she tried to turn the knob, she noticed that it was locked. She wasted more time as she unlocked the door. She bolted once again, only to run into Papyrus, who was standing guard outside the house.

"Oof!"

"NYEH!"

They both fell to the ground. Frisk was able to keep all of the bags intact and unharmed, if not a bit shaken.

Papyrus stood up and brushed himself off. "Frisk, are you okay?"

Frisk nodded and stood up.

"Why were you running?"

Frisk rearranged the bags in a manner that was comfortable to carry. "I'm trying to catch the bus," she explained.

Papyrus pointed to a yellow school bus that was driving away. "You mean like that one?"

Frisk nodded and waved at the skeleton. "Sorry Papyrus! I would stay to chat but I've got to go," she yelled while running.

Papyrus looked back at the house. "Wasn't Sans supposed to her to school?" He glanced at the running Frisk. "He didn't wake up in time, did he?" A light from the house turned on. A blue light flashed in the room. Papyrus narrowed his eyes. "No. He didn't.

Frisk panted as she ran after the bus.

"Frisk, why are you running so hard," Flowey asked from the bag.

"B...u...s," she muttered.

"Frisk, it sounds like you're about to fall over! Then I'LL be stranded Frisk."

The bus stopped at a stop sign. She was almost there. Someone on the bus spotted the child running and was pointing at her. The bus door opened. Frisk slowed her run to a walk, knowing that the bus driver would stay put. She stepped onto the bus and looked at the bus driver. He was a middle-aged man with a bored expression on his face,

"Kid, you know the bus comes at eight, right?"

Frisk nodded. "I'm sorry, sir! Won't happen again!"

The man eyed the plastic bag that Frisk held in her hands.

"What's in the bag."

Frisk glanced at the bag. "It's my lunch."

The driver nodded. "Take a seat."

Frisk nodded and walked to the back. Various students stared at her as she walked past. She eventually found an empty seat. She sat down and scooted close to the window.

The bus began to move again.

"So, you're back again," someone asked from the seat behind her.

"Yeah."

The voice chuckled. It was a girl's voice. "I thought you climbed Mount Ebott. If you did, then why are you here?"

Frisk frowned. It was her. Another bully who tormented Frisk. Unlike the two boys, she tended not to fight physically. "I was able to escape."

"Why are you lying?" The girl poked her head above the seat. "Everyone who climbs that mountain never returns. So if you did go, how are you here, and how would you be able to survive with those horrible monsters?"

"They aren't horrible," Frisk exclaimed. "They're really nice!"

The girl chuckled again. "Y'know, I don't really think those are monsters. It could be people in costumes that YOU have forced to create this act! So I'll ask again, attention hog, why are you lying?"

"But I'm not lying," Frisk muttered.

A blue light flashed outside of the bus. The bus stopped and opened the doors. The man groaned. "Can people please be on time today? There are seats in the back. Hurry up and sit in one... and take off that ridiculous mask," the bus driver grumbled.

The girl poked Frisk's head impatiently. "Hey Freak, I asked a question. Why are you lying?"

"lying about what?" Sans sat in the seat Frisk was sitting in. "heyya kid. tori and papyrus asked me to take you to school, but seeing as i didn't wake up in time, i'll at least accompany you."

The girl scoffed. "Oh, and this must be one of your actors! Really, a skeleton? Not very original, are you?"

Sans turned around to look at the child. "excuse me?"

"And really, couldn't you be more creative with the names? Papyrus is one of the WORST fonts for computers! Oh well. At least it isn't comic sans."

"my name is sans," Sans said.

The child gasped. "Oh, my mistake!" She sneered at the skeleton. "So are you as bad as the font?"

"like i said, excuse me?"

Frisk backed as close to the window as she could. "Sans, don't do anything bad."

"kiddo, do you want to take the bus today?"

Frisk shook her head. "No. Not particularly."

Sans grinned. "good. me neither."

The girl scoffed. "And just HOW are you going to get to school then? Oh Freak, are you going to skip school like you've been doing for the past month?"

"Do you know where the school is, Sans."

Sans nodded. "yeah. i found it yesterday while you were asleep. grab ahold of my hood."

Frisk grabbed Sans' hood. She clutched the bags in her other hand.

"Hello! Answer my question!" The child frowned.

Within an instant, both Sans and Frisk were gone. A light blue trial of light lingered where they once sat.

The girl stared at the seat in astonishment, as did everyone else on the bus. Even the bus driver stopped to a halt after the light flashed.

"What... just... happened," everyone asked.

The bus driver froze. "That wasn't a mask, was it?"

"MONSTER," the bus collectively yelled.

The girl stared at the seat. "I... am so dead."

Sans and Frisk stood outside the school. People walking into the school stopped to stare at the skeleton and Frisk.

"kiddo, i really should have woken up earlier, but... i'm not a morning person. to think, if undyne hadn't have yelled for me to get up, you'd be stuck talking to that jerk."

Frisk nodded. "She's always been mean to me."

"well, i'll tell tori and we'll find some way so you don't have to ride the bus. i'm sure papyrus would walk with you."

Frisk smiled. "That would be great!"

"well, i'm going back home. i wanna get a little bit more sleep. have a good day frisk."

"You too!"

In a flash of blue light, Sans was gone, leaving Frisk and Flowey.

Frisk sighed. "Time for school."
