fun level 74 Original MC Sans and Frisk

 

A Few Days Earlier . . .

“Hmm . . .” Papyrus got up once again and looked around. “Sans?” Still not there. Had he fallen asleep on duty? He had been gone at least a couple of days now, hadn’t he?

Prince Asriel pulled on his arm. “I’m hungry.”

Papyrus looked down toward the small prince. The king and queen had somehow disappeared around the Underground. Undyne had taken over most of the matters, but he was now considered a special royal guard. So special he did not fight.

He was there to make sure the prince was okay. Some would call it babysitter, but Undyne insisted it was a special royal guard position, and he believed it. It only made sense that she finally knew how worthy he was to being a royal guard!

“Hey.” Prince Asriel pulled on his arm again. “I’m hungry.”

“Then we shall get you something to eat,” Papyrus insisted. He hummed as he went into the royal kitchen and tried to find something for him to eat. But, it was hard to concentrate that day.

He was terribly worried about Sans. Why hadn’t he come by the royal castle to at least congratulate him? Was he at home? How long was he gone? A couple of days. Maybe more.

Maybe . . . more.

“Hey.” Prince Asriel pulled on his bony arm again. “Hey, brother of Smiley Idiot, let’s get it together. I’m . . .” He looked eye to eye to Papyrus.

Papyrus matched him. “Sans isn’t here. He hasn’t been here for days. No, he hasn’t been here for a week. No.”

“Sans!” Prince Asriel looked toward himself. “Lame, so lame. I’ve been tricked.”

“No, no, no, no, no, nooo!” Papyrus yelled. “He’s been-”

“Don’t say anything,” Prince Asriel said. “Call up Undyne. We are both remembering. She might too.”

“Faster,” Undyne insisted as they headed toward the hole. “Faster, faster. Alphys is out there. I knew she was somewhere, but I . . .”

“I know. I did the same thing with Sans.” Papyrus headed out the hole. “How will we find Sans though?”

“Alphys.” Undyne looked out. “Alphys shouldn’t be out there. Sans better be taking care of her.”

“Alphys will be fine,” Papyrus said.

“Hey. Finally got someone.”

Papyrus turned and saw Chara behind him.

“Not the ones I wanted, but hey, who’s choosy?”

————————

Papyrus looked around himself. In front of him was Queen Toriel. “Majesty?”

“Papyrus?” Queen Toriel questioned. “Where is Frisk?”

“I don’t know.” Papyrus looked around again. “How did we get here?”

“It’s technology and magic, paired.” Queen Toriel headed toward the right to a large machine. “It’s almost like the internet. We input words that we are looking for. The more it occurs in an area, the more it can hone in on it. Then, magic floods that way. It’s amazing, yet-”
