A/N: Forgot to add this before, but Shard and Alex, two characters mentioned in this chapter, are from another story of mine: Emerald Green, Shattered Throughout Time. Go check it out if you want to know about them.

~Sans POV (Third Person)~

Sans was annoyed. And tired. And that was not a good combination. It was currently 1 in the afternoon, and he had barely slept. Which was new for him. Why hadn't he slept? Well, it was because he couldn't stop thinking about what the phone guy said. He hadn't caught the whole message (he knew Frisk hadn't either), and wanted to know what at the Pizzeria could cause harm enough for the phone guy to even bring it up. So, to fix that problem, he decided to visit an old friend...

~A few streets away from the group's house~

Shard Opal had made a nice life for himself back on the surface. He had found a family that not only took him in as a child, but bought him his own house to live in once he was a teenager. He of course had to pay for the bills, but the house had been paid off quite quickly, so there wasn't that to worry about. And he was also able to split the cost with his roommate, Alex. The two shared the house, and therefore both helped pay the bills. When not in school, Alex would switch between doing odd jobs and working as the waiter at a cafe in their general vicinity and Shard would work at Grillby's. Today had been one of his days off. And he had hoped to enjoy it first by watching TV, then going on a little trip up Mt. Ebott. What he hadn't planned for, however, was an old friend dropping by. Shard heard the doorbell ring as he was putting on his hiking jeans.

"Just a moment!" He shouted. He put on a belt, and rushed to the door, nearly killing himself on the coffee table in the center of the living room. He opened the door, and jumped when he saw Sans.

"Hey, Shard." Shard, once recovered, stood up.

"Yo! What's up, Sans?"

"Well, Frisk got a job recently, and I'm accompanying her."

"Really?" Shard sounded surprised. "Where is it?"

"Freddy Fazbear's." Shard paled.

"O-oh."

"Yeah. Some guy left a message for us last night, and mentioned that we could get injured or die. And that wouldn't be a skele-ton of fun, would it?" Shard sighed at the pun.

"And I'm guessing you want to know why?"

"Yep." Was all Sans replied. Shard sighed.

"Well, come on in. I'll tell you." Sans teleported onto Shard's couch, and the teen just closed the door and walked over to a beanbag near a gaming console. He sat in it, and inhaled. "Okay. So, here's the story. Long story short, in the late 80's, around 87 I think, a pizza place, Freddy Fazbear's, experienced a tragedy. One of the animatronics, Foxy, well a newer version of the one that had existed in the past, bit off the frontal lobe of a child. This became known as "The Bite of '87." This incident, along with a string of child murders by one of the night guards previously, completely ruined the company. They closed all of their pizzeria's, and scrapped all of the "newer" animatronics. Then, in the '90s, the company revived the pizzeria with refurbished versions of the old animatronics. However, due to lack of popularity and a few strange night guard disappearances, it closed soon after. Fast forward past a Horror Attraction based on the entire history of the pizzeria chain and to the present, it reopened with the old animatronics. But the strange thing is that the phone call you described is the same one mentioned by a former employee of Fazbear's from the '90s. I think his name was Mike something." Shard paused. "Anyways, what's important is that it's rumored that the animatronics are possessed by the spirits of the murdered children. And that they hunt the night guards, hoping one will be their murderer." Sans, who's pupils had disappeared back when Shard mentioned child murders, shuddered.

"D-damn. Didn't think that the place had such a dark history. Well, thanks for this. It will help for tonight. I'll tell Frisk this stuff when I get home, if they haven't found out themselves, that is." Sans was about to walk out, but a hand on his shoulder stopped him.

"Sans." Shard's expression was unusually serious. "That place is dangerous. Now, I know that we both made Frisk promise never to

SAVE or RESET ever again, but I think that her SAVE ability will help. I can't have you two go dying now, can I?" Sans smiled.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to them about it."

"Okay... Well, see ya Sans."

"See ya, kid." And with that, Sans teleported away, leaving a fuming Shard. Said teen just roughly grabbed his signature jacket, which was literally the same as the one from the Underground only a few sizes larger, slammed the door, locked said door, and walked towards Mt. Ebott.
