"He's wrong, I won't kill people just because he says I have to." the girl told herself while walking away from the Ruins. "I didn't kill mom, and I won't kill anybody else either."
As the girl told herself that, she stepped over a small broken branch only for it to snap a few seconds later frightening her as she started walking quicker before reaching a small bridge with a gate over it.
"Human." called a strange voice from behind the girl as footsteps approached her. "Don't you know how to greet a new pal? Turn around and shake my hand."
Maybe he's friendly like mom was, the girl thought hopefully before turning and taking the figures extended hand only for a farting sound to occur as she grabbed it.
"the old whoopee cushion in the hand trick, it's always funny." laughed a skeleton in a blue jacket.
"It was pretty funny." the girl agreed with a smile.
"yup, so hey you're a human right?" the skeleton inquired. "that's hilarious. I'm actually supposed to be on watch for humans right now, I'm sans, sans the skeleton."
"It's nice to meet you Sans, my name's Frisk." the girl mentioned with a smile before looking down. "Wait, if you've been waiting for a human does that mean you want to kill me?"
"huh, nah between you and me I don't really care about capturing anybody Frisk." Sans explained. "my brother Papyrus on the other hand, he's a human hunting fanatic. actually I think that's him over there, that gives me an idea, head past this gate thingy."
"Ok." Frisk agreed before walking over the bridge and seeing a random lamp next to a small wooden building.
"quick, behind that lamp." Sans instructed before Frisk walked and hid behind the lamp as a second skeleton walked up to them. "hey bro, what's up?"
"YOU KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S 'SUP' BROTHER." Papyrus stated. "IT'S BEEN EIGHT DAYS AND YOU STILL HAVEN'T REACALIBRATED YOUR PUZZLES. ALL YOU DO IS SLEEP AND HANG AROUND OUTSIDE YOUR STATION."
"that's because I've been watching this really cool lamp, do you want to look at it too?" Sans asked.
"NO I DO NOT, I DON'T HAVE TIME TO WASTE ON THINGS LIKE THAT." Papyrus snapped. "I MUST BE PREPARED IN CASE A HUMAN COMES THROUGH HERE. I HAVE TO BE THE ONE TO CAPTURE A HUMAN, THEN I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, WILL GET EVERYTHING I DESERVE."
"you're right bro, maybe this lamp can help you with that." Sans suggested.
"SANS, YOU ARE NOT HELPING. YOU JUST SIT AROUND GETTING LAZIER AND LAZIER EVERY DAY."Papyrus yelled. "WHAT ARE YOU EVEN DOING?"
"calm down bro, I've gotten a ton of work done today." Sans replied with a grin. "a skele-ton."
"SANS!" Papyrus cried in exasperation.
"come on bro, you're smiling." Sans mentioned.
"I KNOW AND I HATE IT." Papyrus explained with a sigh. "WHY MUST SOMEONE AS GREAT AS ME HAVE TO WORK SO HARD TO GET A LITTLE RECOGNITION?"
"wow bro, sounds like you're really working yourself… down to the bone." Sans joked with another grin.
"UNBELIAVABLE, I WILL ATTEND TO MY PUZZLES." Papyrus stated. "AS FOR YOU BROTHER, PUT A LITTLE MORE BACKBONE INTO IT. NYEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEH!"
As he said that Papyrus walked off back the way he came.
"alright, you can come out now Frisk." Sans mentioned as Frisk stepped out from behind the lamp with her hand over her mouth. "huh, is something wrong?"
"No, it's just you and Papyrus really love each other don't you." Frisk said before starting to giggle.
"yeah, my brother is really cool isn't he?" Sans asked with a smile. "actually, do you mind doing me a small favor?"
"I guess not, what is it Sans?" Frisk inquired.
"my brother's actually been feeling kind of down recently, and seeing a human just might be the thing that cheers him up." Sans explained. "so do you mind playing along for a while?"
"I… Sure thing Sans, I'll be glad to help cheer him up." Frisk replied with a smile.
"thanks, and don't worry he isn't really dangerous. even if he tries to be. besides, I'll keep an eye socket out for you" Sans mentioned. "well, I'll see you up ahead."
As he said that, Sans walked back towards the ruins.
Those two really love each other, just like… Frisk started to think as a tear fell down her face and she clutched the heart-shaped necklace she was wearing before walking down the path Papyrus came from before walking up to Sans and Papyrus talking to each other. Huh, wait but didn't Sans go the other way?
"SO ANYWAY, AS I WAS SAYING ABOUT UNDYNE." Papyrus mentioned before noticing Frisk as the two skeletons started looking back and forth between Frisk and each other before turning their backs to her. "SANS, OH MY GOD! IS THAT… A HUMAN?"
"um… I think that's just a rock bro." Sans answered.
"OH, WELL THEN." Papyrus noted thoughtfully.
"hey, what's that in front of the rock?" Sans inquired.
"SANS, IS THAT A HUMAN?" Papyrus whispered.
"yup." Sans replied calmly.
"WOW, I FINALLY DID IT!" Papyrus cried excitedly before turning towards Frisk. "HUMAN, YOU SHALL NOT PASS THIS AREA, I THE GREAT PAPYRUS WILL STOP YOU, AND THEN CAPTURE YOU."
I hope you were telling the truth Sans, Frisk thought nervously.
"HUMAN, CONTINUE ONLY IF YOU DARE." Papyrus declared eagerly before walking away.
"He seems really excited to capture me, are you sure this is safe." Frisk asked.
"don't sweat it kid, like I said I'll keep an eye socket out for you." Sans reassured her.
"Ok, then I guess I have some puzzles to look forward to?" Frisk guessed.
"yeah, and thanks again for offering to play along with my younger brother." Sans mentioned with a grin before walking off again.
I wonder if they met her, I guess I can ask after I try some of Papyrus' puzzles. Frisk thought. I know you're somewhere, I'm coming big sis just like I said I would.
(The young girl named Frisk has encountered a pair of skeleton brothers named Sans and Papyrus and has agreed to play along with their puzzles. Next chapter Frisk will reach the first puzzle and reveal why she's in the underground to Sans. As always any reviews or critique is appreciated.)
