Sweet betrayal

Questions

Why did they have to call? Why now? What did they need to tell him?

More importantly, it seemed like they didn't only try to call him that night. . He did see all of the previous calls that he never got to answer while scrolling through his repertory. Probably when he was still at the hospital. It's not like he would've answered before but he was now stuck with too many missed calls. So, he forced himself to suck it up and call back. . He would be free to do as he wished after that. Right?

He didn't need to wait long, not even two rings in and the person on the other side of the screen picked up.

Killer? Is that you? Thank Asgore you finally picked up. . Are you alright? What's happening?

A male voice rang out of the device, it was strong but had some softness to it. Killer knew this voice all too well but he wasn't surprised to hear it, due to the number on his screen.

Of course, why wouldn't I be? Y'know me Crossy, I'm a tough kinda guy. . Nothing like miserable and low leveled monsters.

I don't understand, you've been gone for weeks. . And you're telling me everything's fine? Where even are you right now? Boss has been screaming day and night about finding you. Possible that he's planning on sending us to get you back.

Haha, oh you. . No. Don't you find me. I'm totally fine where I am. I'm not in need of coming back and I'm not in need of you either, I'll miss you don't get me wrong Criss Cross but it's much better like this.

Killer said in a cheesy manner, starting to walk around the kitchen all while keeping an eye at the door. He had to make sure that Dream wouldn't be peeking.

You don't get it. It's not just about boss. Ugh, look, you're a pain in the ass but we're starting to feel the empty space in the group here and. .

You're missing out on gaming nights. I stole your best ally. . And all the chocolate you hid under your pillows.

Another male voice added itself on Cross's side of the call. Whoever that guy was, he was mumbling the last part of his sentence. . Perhaps to make sure that Killer wouldn't hear. This new voice was rusty and dry, it definitely sounded hungry.

Killer rolled his highlights. If they were even present.

Bet you're still getting your ass beat by Dust even with Cross on your side.

Heyy, he's just too OP. And I crave snacks in mid battle.

Through the phone, Killer could hear the slight pout but it felt the device was passed back to Cross who sighed deeply.

Look, Killer. . We just want to know what's going on. You disappear without a trace and now Nightmare is on a mission to find you at all costs. I don't even think he cares about the spread of Negativity right now. . It's that serious.

He sighed once more but much deeper as he continued speaking.

What happened?

There was a silence for a moment. Killer didn't say a word but before he could any more of his incredible lies, he heard the voices on the call whisper.

What? You want to say something? Really? Wow- Oww. . I mean sure ! Here. Chill.

Cross seemed to have given the phone to someone else after what sounded like a threat? Killer tilted his skull to listen to whoever wanted to have a word with him.
