S-ORIGINS | By ShadowNTS

(Era of Freedom V) Snowdin.

A freezing wind flows throughout the area. Frisk finds herself on the other side of the gate. She's surrounded by a dense forest of trees and cold snow. Ahead of her lies an already set path, which she starts walking on. Frisk rubs her arms to try and keep warm.

FSK: It's freezing out here!
*BREAK*

Frisk screams from the sound of a cracking branch, until she realizes it was her who stepped on it. She was so embarrassed, the cold stopped bothering her and she kept on moving. After a while of walking, she ends up at a bridge. Suddenly, something grasps her shoulder. Her whole body shivers from fear.

SNS: Is that how you greet an old friend- *sigh* -you've fainted...

Sans squats down and pinches Frisks' cheek until she wakes up.

FSK: Don't crawl up on me like that!
SNS: My mistake, thought you'd be a little more brave.
FSK: Don't mock me! I have a weak heart!
SNS: Heh, so you really came back.
FSK: Yeah, and this time, I promise it'll be alright.
SNS: Keep the promise, kiddo.
FSK: I will! Now let's go!

Frisk grabs Sans' hand and drags him. She runs across the bridge and skips along the snow. She sees someone approaching from a distance, but can't find anywhere to hide.

PRS: Sans! How many times do I have to tell you to stay at your station?!
SNS: Sorry bro. I just went for a walk.
PRS: A walk?! Don't try and lie to me! If you went for a walk, then what is a human doing by your side?! Try and explain that!

Silence falls on the three of them.

PRS: Wait... A HUMAN?! SANS, IF I CAPTURE HER THEN UNDYNE WILL MAKE ME CAPTAIN OF THE ROYAL GUARD! NYEHEHEHE!
SNS: Don't mind him. Let's just move past.
FSK: Bye bye, paps!

Frisk and Sans slip past Papyrus, who doesn't notice them over his prideful laughter. A while later, Frisk and Sans end up in front of one of Papyruses' traps.

PRS: It is me, the great papyrus! Only the smartest can pass this test! These are the rules!

Papyrus starts to list the rules. The list was so long, both Frisk and Sans fell asleep standing...

PRS: SANS! HUMAN!

And then both get startled at the same time.

FSK: Can you explain the rules one more time?
PRS: Y'know what, I'll just leave the rules right here on the ground. I'm leaving.

Papyrus leaves. Frisk and Sans both look in disbelief.

FSK: He didn't turn on the machine...
SNS: That's my brother for ya.

They walk over the puzzle without solving anything. While walking down the path, Frisk and Sans don't exchange much words. Frisk breaks the ice first.

FSK: It feels good.
SNS: Hmm? What are you talking about?
FSK: Seeing everyone alive, and making friends.
SNS: Well, yeah, that's how you're supposed to feel.
FSK: I want to make everyone my friend!

Sans' eyes widen, and then he looks away, his gaze softening.

SNS: Seems like you've finally come to your senses, kiddo.
FSK: Why are you looking away? You getting emotional, hehe.
SNS: Absolutely not.
FSK: Sure, very believable.
SNS: Anyways, we're here.
FSK: Is it just me or am I getting major bad vibes from this bridge?
SNS: Let's just go.

Sans and Frisk both walk on the bridge, when all of a sudden, multiple cannons, spears, torches and spikes appear all around them. Papyrus appears at the head of the bridge.

PRS: Surrender, human! You cannot possibly think to escape from this!

Papyrus looks like he's regretting his decision.

PRS: Nevermind! This is unlike a true warrior to sneak up on their rival! Human, next time we meet, we shall have a duel to the death!

Papyrus makes his grand exit. Sans and Frisk look shocked.

FSK & SNS: (What just happened?!)

They reach the end of the bridge and step into Snowdin, the town built inside the ever-lasting winter. Frisk takes a deep breath, feeling the comfortable aura the town emmits. She turns to tell Sans something, but he's already disappeared.

FSK: (This is the second time someone has disappeared like this...)

Frisk looks unhappy but quickly shakes it off and turns around to walk deeper into town, when out of nowhere, a pack of dogs appear and block her way with weapons.

DGS: Human, halt at once!
FSK: Look, a stick!

Frisk throws the stick off the cliff and into the forest below.

FSK: Go fetch!

Without hesitation, the dogs run after the stick.

FSK: Almost too easy! Anyways, I should get moving.

Frisk walks into town, determined to make everyone her friend, and so she does, but not without a lot of convincing. After a long day of befriending others, Frisk falls onto the snow, almost fainting from exhaustion. A comedian walks over.

SNS: Good job, kiddo. You did a ton today... a skele-ton.
FSK: I wish I had already fainted.
SNS: C'mon, let's get you someplace warmer.

Sans pinches Frisks' cheek.

FSK: Is it necessary for you to pinch my cheek?
SNS: Nope, but it makes this more fun.
*FWOOP*

Sans and Frisk teleport to his house. She drops on the couch and lets out a big sigh of relief. Papyrus pops his head out from the kitchen and says they're having spaghetti for dinner. Sans and Frisk both yearn for the food.

-- Did ya know? --
Papyrus does not remember Blooks' name, despite Blook being a frequent guest to their household! This could be because Blook wears a different hat everytime he visits!
