Papyrus woke up to a familiar room, it was dark and small, he couldn't get out unless HE was taking him to another test. He noticed the lack of another presence, either he didn't get Sans or he was with him on a test. Papyrus got up slowly, everything ached, that wasn't a surprise to him, he got blasted by a gaster blaster after all. Papyrus jumped at the sound of approaching footsteps, he quickly laid down, pain shot through him. The barrier stopping him from leaving disappeared, a short figure was thrown into the room, it was Sans... ''You were both foolish, hiding out in the same area, think a little more next time..'' So Sans WAS in Waterfall... in the same area as him, how come he never saw him though?

The barrier turned back on, so he wasn't running tests now, that was good. Papyrus turned his head to look at Sans. Sans didn't seem to know he was there. ''Sans...'' Papyrus began, the short skeleton jumped, turning towards him. ''Pap..'' Sans smile looked force ''I saw... I saw him, and you...'' Papyrus sat up again, he walked over to Sans, hugging him, Sans slowly returned it. ''I don't want to go through this again Sans... I can't'' Papyrus sobbed, Sans hugged him tighter ''I know Pap, I know...'' The two stayed like that for a while, soon falling asleep like that. HE watched them, observed how they would react to being with each other again. Exactly how he predicted, they would cling to each other.

  

It was the second day they were stuck back here, the two clung to each other, afraid if one let go, the other would disappear. HE came around, staring at the two, as if he was deciding who to take first, he stepped inside their little prison, reaching for Papyrus. Sans' eye instantly started glowing ''Don't take him.... Take me instead... please...'' HE ignored him, grabbing Papyrus ''Its time.'' Was all he said. ''No... nonononono... don't... stop it.. let him gO gASTER!'' Sans and Papyrus clung to each other, trying to stop Gaster, he ripped Papyrus from Sans' grip, the two cried out for each other as Gaster continued walking, all the way to that room, the test room...
