Tucker's POV

I woke up in a jail cell. What happened? I was running towards Sonja then...

My head hurt. I rubbed my temples. I glared at the cell across from me. It was empty. I slowly rolled across the wall I had been leaning on until my back was pressed against it and I was looking into the cell next to me. It was Sonja and Erin, both of them were sprawled out in bizarre positions on the floor, and they weren't moving. My breathing was suddenly heavy. What if-

Jordan moaned, interrupting my thoughts. I hadn't even noticed him in the far corner. "Some... rescue mission this was eh?" I said, forcing the words out. Jordan wasn't talking, he just stared up at the ceiling from his limp position on the floor. He tried to sit up but he couldn't. He cussed and settled for rolling over on his side to face me. "That... wasn't Erin..." he said while having as much trouble as I did.

"Yeah no shit." I scoffed back. "I guess we both got duped." Jordan moaned again. Guess we both felt pretty stupid. He finally managed to sit up and rub his head. He glanced over, saw the girls, then turned back to me.

"Where's Wag... and Diane..." He mumbled.

I rolled my eyes. "Who cares where Diane is, screw her. As for Wag, I don't know. He could be in the cell diagonal to us."

Jordan went quiet and stared at his lap. Sonja was my girlfriend, so the illusion made sense. But Jordan...

"Hey man, don't worry about it. That Pyrite chick probably just picked some random girl out of your head and exaggerated her."

Jordan sighed and ran his fingers through his hair. "But she was crying... Nevermind. Let's get out of here." He moved to stand and immediately fell again. "Crap."

What did they do to us?! "Get some rest man." There was some muffled complaints but soon Jordan rolled over again and went silent. Right. 3 unconscious heroes. Who knows how many of us were missing. All we had were 2 cells and maybe our gods. Time to get busy on that escape plan.

New chapter coming this week! Sorry y'all, but I fell down a hole, met a yellow flower and a goat mom, and it's taken me a while to get out to the surface again. (Side note: would you read an Undertale story?) bye!
