CHAPTER 15

(Before this chapter I would like to credit @amalia-uwu for the idea of what happens to Sans in the 6th POV switch)

Papyrus's POV:

Flying through the air, I grabbed Undyne and we attacked the humans from over their heads. Undyne threw spears at the soldiers, turn the majority of their SOULS green. Since the soldiers were immobilized I was able to shoot bones from the ground and lower each human to 1hp before leaving them. We fought hard and long getting hit rarely, but bringing forth a storm of attacks on the enemy. The humans tried their best, I'll give them that, however they were never came close to beating the Captain of the Royal Guard and her right hand man! As Undyne knocked the last of the Army out I shouted, "Nyeh-heh-heh, W-We've Done It Undyne!" She only smiled and exhaled a shaky breath. "U-Undyne?" I questioned, lowering my best friend down. "Are You A-Alright?" "Y-Yeah, I'm just-' she coughed and breathed heavily- 'exhausted... and h-hot..." Once we touched the ground I removed my glove and touched a scale on her arm...! "U-Undyne, You're ... Incredibly Dry... W-We Need To Get You T-To Some Water." I helped Undyne sit down in a trench the humans had built as I said, "Stay Here, I-I'll Find A Creek In The Forest, T-Then I'll Come Back For You. I-I Promise..." She nodded, wheezing. So, I took off thinking of the best way to get to a brook. It hit me that the fire we fought over and the dry area we set up camp in was most likely the reason she became dehydrated. Though we did have drinking water, we were rather far from the nearest source of fresh water, hence we sent monsters that could fly to get water. I never went because as lieutenant I was meant to stay near the Captain and help her... Suddenly, as I flew through the forest I came across something white and blue... wait... "S-Sans...?"

Sans' POV:

On the ground seein' stars wasn't really on my to do list, but I was sorta struggling to get up at the moment. I heard a 'woosh' over head... Probably a bird- "S-Sans...?" Oh, not a bird, "uhh... hey..." Papyrus landed and immediately began to pick me up from the ground. "What Happened? W-Why Were You Just... Lying There And Where A-re The Others..." Right.... the others... "the others... pap i... i tried but the humans ambushed us. alphys she... uh kinda' sold us out..." "W-what...?" Papyrus's voice fell to a whisper. " 'm sorry paps... is there anyone left with you?" "O-Only Undyne... As Far As I Know The Three Of U-Us Are The Last Ones Standing." All of monster kind... captured? Every living monster but the three of us and Asgore. I can't wrap my head around it really. I don't believe it's true... or possible, but it is. We lost... "S-Speaking Of Which, We Need Water And Fast. I'm N-Not Sure How Well Undyne's Doing..." "i think i heard a stream up ahead. could you get us there real quick?" "Of Course, Brother." Thus Pap flew. Faster than I've ever seen him go before, guess it's just me trying to comprehend the severity of the situation. "I'll D-Drop You Off At The C-Creak And Pick Up Undyne To Bring Her There." "sounds good to me." "Then It's A P-Plan." My brother's so cool. Always level headed, man he shouldn't have ever been involved in this. Perhaps he'll lead us to victory. I don't know how, but if anyone could it would be him. I'm sure of it.

Third Person Narrator (omniscient) POV:

Brother in hand Papyrus soared across the forest, following his brother's directions. The fall colors blurred together into a warm gradient as he flew faster than ever before. Eventually they two arrived at a rocky brooke, the harsh terrain clearing the path of trees. So, Papyrus set Sans down and gave him a quick glance before flying off to retrieve Undyne. She was growing more sick as the seconds went by; Papyrus knew this and he wouldn't let that happen. By the time he arrived to where he had helped Undyne to the sun was beginning to set. She was asleep when Papyrus walked up to her, before gently shaking her shoulder to wake her. "Undyne, h-how are you feeling?..." He asked once she opened her eyes. "....mmmhm heat sick...?" "I-I see... Sans helped me find a creek that you could swim in and that we can all get some drinking water from." "S... sounds good." She coughed harshly after she spoke. It was getting worse, she couldn't go on like this any longer. "I-I'm going to get us o-over there, don't worry..." Papyrus picked her up from the dirt and took off once again. He was getting tired...but he refused to give up or land before Undyne got to safety. Right now, she was depending on him, they all were. Thus, he flew faster, tried harder, and regained his focus as he made it to the half way point. Undyne was going to be okay, Sans too.

Sans' POV:

Takin' advantage of being near the water by washing my face and getting something to drink is... most likely the best decision I've made in a while. The water is cold, but it's not like I care. 's refreshing, Papyrus would say the same. The wind is getting louder, so I'd assume he's almost here... The sky is somewhat cloudy which makes it harder to see, but I'd recognize that red scarf anywhere. Papyrus is back. "heya bro" I say as he lands. He's carrying 'Dyne to the river so I wait for him before flashing him a smile of which he returns. "glad ya made it here alright, did anyone see you?" "N-No, Sans, There Wasn't A-Anyone In S-Sight." "good, let's get ourselves healed up then." Papyrus had taken off his boots and scarf to help Undyne into the water, but she doesn't look steady. "here, lemme help." I tell them as I go to the right of Undyne to help get 'er into the water. The effect is almost immediate as she dives into the water splashin' us both. "U-Undyne-!" Papyrus yells as he bursts out laughing and I can't help but join in, taking his surprise to splash him again. "Nyeh- S-Sans, Not You Too!" Should've payed more attention cause I didn't see Undyne coming behind me and pushing me into the water. Papyrus yanks me out of the river by my hoodie laughing harder than I've ever seen. I only just realized that I'm smiling... really smiling. He set me down on a rock and I watch as him and Undyne swim and splash each other. The sun is getting low in the sky, but the two show no signs of slowing. They've always had more energy then I could handle, 's probably why they're such good friends. The two of them messed around for about twenty more minutes which allowed me to mostly dry off before the sun set, hanging my hoodie on a near by branch. It was completely dry by the time Papyrus walked over to me sopping wet. "heya, bro, you look soaked to the bone." "Nyeh..." He gave me an annoyed glance before ushering me to sit next to a fire pit that Undyne was building. She shivered as the wind blew a cool breeze reminding me that as a cold-blooded monster her internal temperature dropped and rose from external temperature. "I'll G-Get The Fire Wood, Sans Could You Help Undyne Build A P-Place For The Fire?" " 'course, bro" He walked into the forest after my response and I began to help 'Dyne. Most of the rocks I found were somewhat wet, but they would still work in containing the fire. "you find any?" "Yeah." We arranged the rocks into a circle and finished as a red boot stepped out of the forest. "I F-Found Quite A Few For Us To U-Use. Many Twigs Too F-For Kindling." "Thanks, Pap, you're the best!" Her teeth chattered. "tha's my bro." We help set up the wood and then let Undyne start the fire since she has the most experience. It ignites quickly giving off a comforting warmth. A huge improvement from earlier. ’Suppose it’s a good thing I had most of the food... the other supplies not so much. “We N-Need A Plan For The Morning. Any Ideas?“ Papyrus bit into a cinnabun. “nah, imma go with whoever’s got the best one though“ He sighs. “Why not plan something tomorrow,“She yawns, “I'm exhausted...“ “hmm.... I secound that, paps...“ He sat with his knees bent, legs close to his chest and arms holding them close. “you ’kay, bro?“ “Y-Yeah, I’ll Take First Watch...“ “we don't really need... okay...“ Nothin’ I can do to calm his anxieties, besides he isn’t wrong... Having someone keep guard might help us in the long run. “i’ll take second then“ Undyne would take third but that went unsaid, she was already asleep, her arms crossed as she leaned against Papyrus’s arm... the chipped one not... the other... “well, night paps.“ I zipped my hoodie and threw up my hood before sitting against a large rock near the fire. “G-Goodnight, Brother... And Undyne.“ It was more of a customary thing, since she wouldn’t be responding. I’m shutting my eyes now, I trust Pap to keep us safe.

Papyrus’ POV:

Tonight would have been beautiful, the stars dazzling the sky, the soft babble of the brook, and the cool breeze making the fire that much warmer... Unfortunate that we monsters won’t truly enjoy this till the army stops hunting us down. Until all the monsters are saved, I wonder if things would have been different. Maybe not, perhaps even if the human survived we would remain trapped or be hated my mankind. ...Focus Papyrus! Your brother is counting on you, Undyne too!

There is no movement besides Sans' occasional stirring, no sound besides the chirping of crickets. The fire is dying, but I can't leave the camp to get more wood, let alone move. I wouldn't want to wake up Undyne, but she was starting to look cold. My scarf is sitting on a nearby tree branch because I forgot to put it on, but luckily I can easily reach it. She looks much warmer wrapped up in a scarf. Nyeh, I really am the greatest skeleton -besides my brother of course- and the greatest friend. I can't help but smile... it hurts still, but less.

...

It's been very quiet for the last few hours, seems even the crickets have gone to bed. The wind hasn't even rustled in the grass. For a moment the world appears at a standstill. Nothing happens. Nothing will I want to think, but you never know what lurks in the darkest shadows of the night. Suddenly Sans is awake. He was talking, but I have no clue what he said. "Yes, Brother?" "uhhh.. i was sayin' i can take watch for now." "Oh, S-Sorry, Sans, I Was L-Lost In T-Thought For A Minute." "don't worry about it, bro. just, uh, get some sleep, kay?" I yawned, "I S-Suppose An Hour Or Two Couldn't Hurt?" "sweet dreams, pap." "Goodnight, Sans..." I streched my legs out towards the almost dowsed fire and put one hand behind me for balance before closing my eyes. Sans would protect us, he's never once let me down.

Sans POV:

The forest is incredibly dark, and a weird sound, not unlike foot steps, can be heard. It doesn't help that Papyrus and Undyne are sound asleep, not to mention that the fire's out. I swear I heard whispering as well. Strange... So I check it out, but... nothing's there...? Maybe I'm just being paranoid. The woods are misty at this time for night, if I went in no one would see me. No one would know. An eery feeling comes over me as shadow falls onto me from behind. "Hello, skeleton..." The deep, gravely voiced presence looms over me. His voice is oddly familiar. I turn around to face him knowing that I'd be vulnerable if he had a weapon; he appears unarmed. A sinking feeling in my lack of stomach tells me I should get back to camp. "what do ya' want from me?" I summon my magic ready to fight, just in case. "To finish the job, S. 7267. If you want things done right" the tall man pull something out from his pocket almost too quickly for me to react and shot it at me. "You have to do it yourself!" I summon a few bones to throw at him, but I feel very weak... and so tired..." was... tha' a- a tranq?" "Very astute, S. 7627, though I'd have expected more of a fight." He said something else too, but I couldn't hear him as I fell to the ground with my vision fading to black.

Papyrus POV:

“Put your hand in my hand and we'll stand!

Let the Skyfall,

When it Crumbles

We will stand tall and face it all

Together”

Adele - Skyfall

Look on the bright side...

CHAPTER 14

Sir’s POV

The tracker hidden in the skeletons boot preformed wonderfully, the location has been found. He lead us straight to them. Our spy has told us that almost every monster left is hidden in the base Papyrus is in now. All but their king of course. He, Asgore, is currently in Washington, and our orders have disallowed for us to lead an attack on him for now. However, soon we will hold his people captive and he will have to leave. This, of course, allows us to abolish the monsters and the monarchy they live in. They deserve this, I have done nothing wrong... Though, the thought of their distruction is beginning to remind me of... then...

“Sargent Kristen, I believe we should launch the attack by night. Please ready the troops and insure there are no dogs. The skeleton has a way with them and could certainly turn the mutts against us.“ “Yes, Sir!“ “Mr. Ezlear, send everyone a digital copy of the map and layout of the base using the information from our spy.“ Of course, Sir!“ Everything must be perfect, a single error could cost us numerous lives. I don’t want that to happen, I may be rather heartless, but death isn’t something to be taken lightly. Never has and never will...

Monsters have been reported to show the least activity between 2-3 O’clock am. A perfect timeframe for our plan, I’ve thought and double checked everything. This will lead to the end of monsters, then, they will go back to being a fairytale. Just as it was meant to be.

Narrator 3rd person POV:

It was remarkable in the darkest of ways. Exactly 10 days later to the minute, after Papyrus uttered his comforting words the monster’s bunker was bombed.

“Sir“ and his specialized team of the most talented warriors were behind the attack, using the tracker placed in Papyrus’s boot to hunt down the surviving monsters.The air was thick with dust and smoke as the monsters tried to escape the burning building, they weren’t expecting an army to be standing nearly 20 paces from the old house.

The embers flew into the sky as shots and magical blasts could be heard from the surrounding areas. Fire lighting up the night sky, challenging the stars to their brilliance, but never their beauty. Burning wood fell from the collapsing ceiling, causing great chaos and distress to the monsters trapped inside. One young child in particular had gotten stuck in the rubble and now couldn’t escape, unfortunately the adults too busy to notice. Undyne and the newly healed Papyrus led the revolt against the aggravators, Sans and Alphys were leading others to safety, other monsters were captured, fighting, or running away from the conflict in fear. Smoke billowed into the skies as the building began to give way. A human noticed the child. At first he’d heard a small call for help and thought it was coming from across the battle field. Then, he heard it again, getting louder and louder as he approached what was left of the building. The reverberating tone served as proof to the child’s lack of humanity. So the solider had a choice: save or leave the enemy child.

It only took a second for him to decide before rushing into the fiery bunker. Wood came crashing down as he narrowly dodged it, attempting to stay low to avoid the now pure black smoke. The floors beneath him were splintering and nearby stone was turning red as it laid in the fire. It was hot, blazing hot. The solider’s arms began to burn and he shouted for the child, who in turn screamed back to him in desperation. Within a few seconds the talented human located the poor child, bits of his scales turning red with burns, wood splintering his tail, and awful scrapes from where his leg had been trapped between heating stone. He heaved the child from the danger and rammed his shoulder into the collapsing wall to escape as fast as he could from the old house. He then shielded the monster with his body as the wall fell into roaring flames biting the legs of the man, but never touching the kid.

The human nelt down to the kid after putting him down and smiled though he was covered in soot, coughing before he spoke. “Are you alright?“ His tone was naturally harsh, but he made an attempt to soften it to help the child whom he just realized was crying. “Uhh-uhh..umm... Y-yeah-“ he was interrupted by coughing, “- ’m okay... Are you a... a bad human?“ The young monster asked his savior. “I’m not 'good', if that is what you're asking. I suggest you run off now, it isn’t safe near me.“ “Could I at least have your name?“ The kid’s confidence began to rebuild the more he spoke. "If you must, it would be Mr. DiRosa to you, but I suggest calling me “Sir“.“ “WOAH! Cool! I’ve got to tell Undyne about this, thank you Sir!“ Sir gave him a genuine smile as he wiped sweat from his forehead, “Yeah...“ This was followed by a heavy sigh before Sir returned to the battle field giving commands and fighting monsters as if he hadn’t risked his life for one a few seconds ago. The war would go on, and no “heroic act“ by one commander would change how the man in charge felt about monsters and their threat to society. Not to mention, monsters can’t be as hopeful and kind was they act, with proof like Undyne, monsters could be violent. Still, Sir would never regret helping that “Monster Kid“, he’d risk his life for those he believes in. Trust was always his downfall, because if you trust no one, you are protected from everyone. However, if you cannot trust then how can you be trusted?

Meanwhile, Papyrus and Undyne fought together, attacking at the same time and making new bullet patterns via a combination of blue and green magic, thrusting spears and bones towards all attackers. Their only job was to protect and they couldn’t let anything get in their way.

Papyrus POV:

“On Y-Your Left, Undyne!“ I shout as I barely step out of the way of a falling piece of wood, it had caught fire like almost everything around us, including the dry grass and dead trees. We should have known they’d find us soon, but how? “PAPYRUS! STAY FOCUSED WE CAN’T AFFORD TO BE HIT!“ Undyne’s right, our race is too fragile to be lost in thought- Shots rang out as a few SOULS broke. I looked over to see the humans who fired at us getting sent flying back by my magic, then I sent multiple bones their way as well. I would never take their lives, my only goal is to stop the soldiers from attacking us. 10 monsters had been captured since the bombing, 7 dusted, 12 fighting with us, and 15 unaccounted for.Dust and ash painted the burning hills and woods igniting the world in a ghastly haze, that in itself was almost impossible to comprehend. It would have been a beautiful night... Bullets flew by me, slightly grazing my armer. An explosive was thrown directly at us a second later. “UNDYNE!“ I screamed for the first time in months. “RUN, GET AWAY, NOW!“ I sprinted as I screamed, running towards the barrage of human soldiers, firing attacks as fast and hard as I could. As the explosive went off I tumbled to the ground in a roll and used blue magic to force the army away. The moment I stood up I realized something, a battle tactic I had forgotten. I had blue magic which affects gravity, I had bones, but I could also fly... I am the Great Papyrus after all! With that, I took to the skies.

Sans’ POV:

"Alph, we need a two or three to carry some of the wounded to the cave Whimsalot scouted out earlier. They aren't going to be able to walk the whole trip." Undyne had strongly requested through tossing all of our medical supplies into my hands for me and Alphys to evacuate the living monsters to safety. Though, I suppose it's better than having to fight, don't really feel like it anyway. "O-Okay, Sans. H-Hey Aaron and uh other Aaron could y-you please carry-" "No problem, now we have a better reason to flex!" Guess that's taken care of now we need to figure out how long it will take us to get there... It only took Whimsalot 20 minutes to get to the cave, but he can fly... Could take us 30-45 minutes to get to it due to all the injured monsters. Oh well, at least we should be safe. Unless if... "Long time no see, skeleton." "yeah, 'nd i'd like to keep it that way, bud." ...He's here. I only turn around and give him a bored look. Sir or whatever his name was simply scowls. "guess you ain't too happy to see me, wonder why?" He growls, and if looks could kill I'd be long gone. "wait, wait lemme guess, is it cause we beat you so bad you didn't show your face for a week?" "I distinctly remember it was your ignorant brother who got you into this mess, 'brother of Papyrus'." "couldn't care less what you say 'bout me, but leave my bro outa this. he ain't do nothin'." "How do you think we found you?"Wait, what...? "Papyrus lead us right to your 'hideout'. That soldier should've known better, didn't have the slightest idea what he was doing." No... "Of course we couldn't have done it without Dr. Alphys, she was the greatest help in all of this." "w h a t" "Right, you wouldn't know about that, not if she wanted to remain free anyway. Our little rat was the mastermind behind the operation, lowering your guard and telling us when to strike." "no! you're lying, alphys is trustworthy! she would never sell out her own kind!" He walked closer and I rallied my magic. "Oh, it's not like she had a choice. It was that or be captured with the likes of your beloved queen, hyper intelligent robot, and the spider who keeps trying to sell us doughnuts..." Toriel, Mettaton, and Muffet are all in custody of these people?! "she's leading them all to capture as we speak" I whispered rather quietly and noticed how deathly silent it had gotten. "Though, since the mission's been completed I suppose she serves no more use for us." he spoke into a microphone attached to his ear, "Put the lizard in a cage to, she is no longer needed." I heard Alphys scream much farther ahead and immediately teleported to the forest where each and every monster had some sort of restraining collar on and was being forced into a cage. I'd failed, but maybe I could still help. "get off of her!" I flung a few men a hundred meters into the woods and shot bones out of the ground. Shots rang out as I effortlessly dodged and fired multiple Gaster Blasters at the soldiers. "Drive Carter!" Sir's voice echoed across the battlefield, and the truck sped away carrying the last of the passive monsters. Before I could do anything I felt something slam into my head leaving me stunned on the ground, strangely, no damage was done as if there was no intent. Someone knelt down and spoke to me. "Can't have freeing them now, Skeleton" Sir... "However,"" He whispered, "You possess magic I don't think my boss should have his hands on, so I'm letting you go, but don't go after the others. I won't be so merciful next time." Why...? Who is his boss and what is he planning on doing with the others... And Sir... I hate the guy, but he isn't completely bad is he? Perhaps misguided... Sir stopped soon after he walked away. " Oh, you might want to get your brother and fish friend. They may have beat our first fleet, but that was the weakest one. I promise it only gets worse from here."

UnderWelcomed

The story occurs in a world where Asgore uses Frisk and the other souls to escape the underground, and the humans don’t like them at all. Part one of the story is below.

Asgore did it. He finally did it. Using the seven souls the underground had collected he broke the barrier. As the monsters emerged from the mountain they looked at the wide expance of the bright sunset. They were awe-struck. The monsters made their way down mountain and into a city. Inhabited by the same species that locked them in Mt. Ebbot. Then the shouts. The screams. “SANS! WHY ARE THE HUMANS MAKING THAT FACE AT US?“ Sans was busy looking at the weapons the humans in blue suits had. “i dunno, paps... but its lookin’ bone chilling tibia honest.“ Then they attacked. Monster civilians fled; like the Snowdin, Waterfall, Hotland, and New Home residents. The guards, healers, and the king stayed. Asgore tried to talk things out while defending his people and himself. “ Listen,” Asgore’s calm, but commanding voice rang out. “ Fighting will do us no good. Please, allow us to explain ourselv-“ He was struck in the leg with weapon that took 100 HP. With a sharp breath he finally allowed Undyne, Captain of the Royal Guard, to unleash attack. Only, if she promised to give the humans lenience. “Gahhhhh!” She yelled as she fought against the superior number. Successfully knocking a few out per Asgore’s request of MERCY. Though, as soon as she turned her back a tall man, part of the SWAT team came up behind her. Another officer was contacting government officials and agents to track down the fleeing monsters and take them for questioning if compliant. If not then the officer was to ‘take care of them’. The tall man closed in on her and fired his weapon.

BLOCKED

Undyne’s POV:

A shot rang through the air, the smell of dust followed suit. Turning my head quickly, I struggle to make out the white blur in front of me. A ringing sound fills my ears as I try to figure out who saved me. I blink hard till my vision returns. “P-Paps!” My voice tight. The rattling sound worried me. Papyrus doesn’t seem to notice me. Instead tears drip silently down his face. No words can describe this. This human… Hurt him… bad… Papyrus never cries. At least not the I’ve ever seen. I can feel the adrenaline, the rage. It engulfs my soul. I send spears -rows of them in every direction- and run over to Papyrus. “Papyrus!” He drops onto his knees, holding his shoulder, crying- no sobbing. Sans is there beside him…. Wait when did Sans get here? Never mind. “PAPYRUS! L-LOOK AT ME! C-COME ON!” I didn’t realize I was screaming. I glance to Sans. “Get Papyrus and yourself out of here.” I said sharply, surprising myself. He only nods, thought it’s stiff and pained, unlike his laid back, relaxed demeanor. In a burst of blue light, the skeleton brothers are gone to who knows where. I fight along side the king and realize, there’s a lot more dust than I thought… Lesser Dog and Doggo… are gone… Dogamy looks heartbroken. No sign of a civilian. A part of me hopes it’s all a nightmare, but the pain in my soul’s too real… I shed a tear before taking down a group of the humans… It feels like something is missing.

Part 2 tomorrow… :)
