Chapter XI

Even if he doesn't show it, the first name of the little human freezes his bones. That's it, Without remembering where he saw those clothes and that familiar face before… It was from Chara… This little monster with glowing eyes had said he couldn't wait for Sans to meet Frisk… But hey, now it doesn't really matter anymore since Chara perished that day, along with Gaster… right? Anyway, the skeleton continues to smile at the human casually.

"Funny first name for a girl ... I guess that's normal in humans." You know kid, my job is to capture you you know? The young girl instinctively recedes her head. But hey, it's not really my thing to run after humans, I'm way too lazy for that. She resumes her usual position and smiles at the skeleton. However, the same cannot be said of my brother Papyrus. He's a human-hunting freak. Besides, I think he's the one who gets there. Quick, cross the bridge and hide behind this lamp that you can see, it has the perfect shape. »Frisk does not take any risks and prefers to listen to the advice of Sans who follows her. The human thus hides behind the lamp, while Sans turns around, ready to welcome his little brother.

"Hey bro, what's up?"

-You want to know what's new Sans ?! It's been nine days that you are supposed to have finished your brain teasers! You're just happy to bay crows all day around your post!

-Hey, relax. I adopted a new, more efficient work ethic. Papyrus widens his eyes, proud of what he hears from his older brother's mouth.

-V… Really? The older one closes one of his eyes.

-Ouaip, a skeleton-ethics . Frisk puts his hand in front of his mouth to keep from laughing as Papyrus is totally unresponsive. Come on, you smile ~.

-Yes ! And I hate it! He sighs. Why does someone as awesome as me have to accomplish so much for little recognition ...

-Wow, it really looks like you ... are struggling with the task. The girl refrains from laughing again as the larger skeleton begins to lose patience.

-… SAAANS! Stop that ! He cleared his throat. Anyway, I'll go back and take care of my brain-breakers. You can keep doing nothing if it's fun brother, but be ready if a human comes near here.

- Count on me brother. »Then Papyrus does not take long to abandon his older brother who sighs with relief. Sans turns back to the lamp when he hears Frisk laughing out loud, and obviously, it gives him great pleasure that even a human is receptive to his jokes. The little human finally leaves her hiding place to join the little skeleton.

"Hehe, you have a good Sanskidish humor, but you should get out soon before my brother comes back, otherwise you're going to have to deal with my devastating humor again. Frisk just nods before heading to the next area. Sans's voice behind her back, however, forces her to stop. He… Actually, I have a little favor for you. You see… My brother, he's not too bad at the moment. He's obsessed with capturing a human to enter the Royal Guard… And that's where the friend comes in. Do you want to play with my brother a bit? Make him believe that you are receptive to his puzzles and that kind of thing you know? Don't worry, he's not really dangerous even if he tries to look… And then I keep an eye socket open for you kid. He assimilates a wink of eye that reassures the young girl. So ? What do you say ? Are you up for it? Frisk doesn't hesitate long before nodding his head.

-I'm going Without! The latter laughs a little.

-Good. Go ahead, go ahead, I'm going to take care of my brother. The skeleton waits for the little human to go a little further to teleport to the next area, hoping to run into his little brother. Bingo. Papyrus is right on the path to Snowdin which Frisk should be walking on any minute. Without sighing and thinking about how he's going to get his brother to stay here until the human arrives. It doesn't take more than a few seconds for the comedian to imagine a devious plan that will hold the larger skeleton in place for a few moments. The oldest skeleton therefore analyzes his little brother's movements, and decides to teleport directly on him to make him believe that he must have teleported hastily.

"P ... P ... P ... P ... Papyrus!" You will never believe me! Over there ! In the forest ! There is there is ! Papyrus sits up slowly, a little stunned, before lifting his brother who seems just as upset.

-What? What is happening ? What did you see Sans? The concerned continues to play comedy.

-It shouldn't be long now! We ... We better get ready bro '! Papyrus finally rests his big brother on the ground.

-But what are you talking about without? The latter desperately observes the end of the road where Frisk should arrive, but the little human still does not come… She must have encountered some monsters on the way…? In any case, now is not the time to stop the plan.

-We don't have time to have fun Pap '! Come on, tell me your brain-breakers are ready!

-Of course they are, there is nothing the great Papyrus cannot do in time. Without pretending to sigh in relief.

-Ok… That's it already… I only have one loan… I should have listened to you so much… It's too late now… The youngest finds stars in his eyes.

- Does that mean you're going to make an effort to be less lazy Sans? This one laughs falsely.

-Uh… Yes yes… Of course bro… Then he whispers to himself. Don't count too much… "Suddenly, footsteps attract the attention of the two skeletons, and the older one is relieved to finally see the human. But seeing that his brother observes the little girl in horror, Sans goes into his game and does the same. Their gazes fall on Frisk and then on their brother for a few seconds until Papyrus exclaims.

"Oh my god Sans… is he… human?"

-Hm… Currently, I think it's a rock. Indeed, behind the young girl there is indeed a rock. Papyrus sighs, disappointed.

-Oh… Obviously…

-He, but what's in front of the rock?

-Would it ... Could it be ... He turns to his brother to whisper to him. He's a human, isn't he?

-Yes.

-I was sure ! Papyrus resumes his normal tone of voice before turning back to Frisk. Human ! Prepare yourself for hours of suffering because I, the great Papyrus, will capture you! Thanks to that I will finally be able to impress Undyne to join the Royal Guard… ~ Prepare to raise my terrible skull-breakers, Human! Nyeh Heh Heh! "
