Sans POV.
"Why do you think Gaster never lets us wandering around alone?"
"Maybe he doesn't want us to get hurt or lost."
"Pap, are you really still hoping on that? What do you see in him?"
" Even the darkest things have light in them, Sans, and I know he does..." Pause, "I just know it."
I've tried everything to convince my brother that Gaster won't stop hurting us. Yet, he still has hope no matter what I say. When Gaster first created us, he referred to us as 'things', before calling us Brothers.
It still bothers me that he calls us things, we aren't objects to be thrown around, we have feelings. We can learn. It still baffles me that Gaster called Papyrus dumb and, yet... Through all of that Pap still believes that there is good in him.
"Pap, why do you think he doesn't experiment on us at night?"
"Maybe he is tired everyday and he needs his rest?"
"Well, he always seems tired when he is experimenting on us. So maybe he doesn't sleep?"
"What would it possibly be that is so important that he would need to do it at night, brother?"
" Maybe he has something to hide?"
"Why would you say that, Sans?"
"Because late at night, when we sleep, I hear the cries of females coming from his lab."
"Oh," Pap pauses for a brief moment," is that why you don't get much sleep, brother?"
"Yeah, sometimes..."
"What do the screams sound like?"
I was shocked as I didn't know how to answer that. And then his question was answered. There was a ear piercing scream that came from the lab... It scared us both. After they stopped we heard foot steps coming from the lab. Pap and I faced the wall and pretended like we were sleeping and we heard a conversation with 2 voices we had never hear before.
"P-Please don't hurt us anymore."
"W-What are you going to do to us???"
They seemed so scared... It made me want to cry. Thinking that, that's how Papyrus and I reacted when we were first here. I don't think have ever been more scared for someone I never met in my life. I feared for them. Being brought into this. They don't deserve this. And, if I could help I would... But I can't. I'm not strong enough.
