Experimentation: An Underswap Fanfiction

Predicament

        Crunch, pant, crunch, pant. Sans' footsteps and breaths alternate each second. The biting cold doesn't bother him in the slightest. Every few seconds or so he looks back to see if Temmie is following him. He doesn't see anything, but he just keeps running. He keeps telling himself that everything will be fine. At the end of the day, he'll be eating hot dogs with Papyrus safe and sound. After a few seconds of self reassuring, Sans realizes he has no idea where he is going. He just ran and didn't look back. His sprint slows to a fast walk. His breaths started to heavy and soon he was wheezing. He does train with Alphys a lot and they do run around a bunch, but he hasn't eaten a thing since last night. He meant to eat this morning, but after his argument with Papyrus, he was too upset to even consider eating. He sits himself down behind a tree and rubs his head attempting to soothe a headache. His eyesight becomes foggy and he feels tears trickling down his face. He quickly wipes them and sniffs. Sans doesn't cry much. He always tries to look on the bright side. But from everything that has happened today, he had the right to. He doesn't have his bandana to bury his face in so he drys his eyes with his torn shirt. He takes a deep breath and releases. He needs to relax, get back to town, and find Papyrus.

        "tHEr u R!!!" Temmie hisses over his shoulder. He shrieks as his feels a sharp pain on his right arm. He tries to stand up and run but he feels another jolt of twinge on his left leg and falls. He screams for help. He screams as loud as he can.

        "Papyrus!!! Alphys!!! Somebody, please help me!!!" Temmie was about to strike him once more but stops abruptly. She grins.

        "bOT nuboDy came... RitE?" She says as Sans turns around weakly. She giggles. "man, u ReallE r en IDIOT." Sans closes his eyes tightly and holds his breath. He feels another brush of wind by his face. But this time, he hears... Grunting. Like two individuals in a struggle.

        "Leave him alone you psycho!" A familiar voice yells. Sans opens his eyes to see Alphys swinging her axe at Temmie. Hid soul skips a beat. He can't determine wether he's relieved, or worried. Temmie is unbelievably good at dodging. Barely any of Alphys' attacks touch her. But almost every attack... Hits Alphys. She's getting beat up like a rag doll. Throughout the whole battle, Temmie cackles. Her eyes beam with joy and her fangs sparkles from whatever light is peaking through the clouds.

        "Alphys! You-" Sans starts.

        "Run Sans." Alphys growls as she swings her axe. Temmie throws her Temmie Flakes just as she dashes to the right. The flakes fly by Sans by a few inches. They chip off bark from a nearby tree and it is sent flying. He yipes.

        "B-but," he persists.

        "I said RUN!" Alphys yells. Right afterwards Temmie manages to strike her right in the jaw. She stumbles backwards and spits out a tooth. Sans hated this. Because of him, Alphys could get seriously hurt or... He shakes the idea out of his mind and decides to listen to Alphys. He takes two steps and falls. He looks down to see his arm badly bruised and dented. He pulls up his pants on the leg that hurt and sees bruises and dents there too. He doesn't see any cracks though. He grunts in pain as he tries to stand. He pushes through the torture and manages to stand up again. He looks back. Temmie and Alphys are battling it out like a scene in a movie. Temmie would have the upper hand for a while, then Alphys would. Temmie's attacks are timed carefully and if successful, they hit. Hard. Alphys seemed to never get tired. She just kept swinging. She never lets her opponent have a chance to rest. She is so cool.

        "Please be careful..." Sans whispers as he turns around and quickly limps out of sight. Temmie watches him leave. Once again, her subject escaped from her grasp. She was awakened back into battle when Alphys slices off fur from her tail. She runs under Alphys' legs and spins and jumps while she charges more Temmie Flakes.

        "cLOse, buT noe sigAR!" She shouts. The Temmie Flakes hit Alphys square in the soul and she collapses to the ground. Temmie walks over to her. She puts her left front paw on what's left of Alphys' soul. Alphys yelps. Temmie winces slightly. It looks at sounds awfully painful. Temmie never cared for Alphys. She always mocked how tiny she was. The only reason she tried to become friends with her during her pacifist runs was because Sans' begged her to. She had to make her favorite subject happy after all. She rubs her paw over Alphys' soul multiple times. "hoo's da tINY 1 noAW?" She sneers as she detracts her claws.
