          Gavin sighed "Whats with the edgelord?" Gavin snickered at Papyrus "You have made a fool out of me for the last time human." "Here we go again with another dramatic speech. This isn't some high school drama bullshit just do what you were gonna do and cut the shit." "Damn aight." Bones started popping up at Gavin's feet and around him, he tried to dodge them but got hit by them a couple times, scraping his leg on the bone. "Fuck!" Gavin said loudly, not screaming but close to it. More and more bones kept popping up from underneath the cold earth, Gavin started noticing a pattern of the bones, every attack was a circle, closing in on Gavin, he would have to jump at just the right time in order to dodge the attack.

          Gavin pushed himself off the snow, lifting himself into the air, he dodged them at just the right time, but he had jumped too high, and landed on his ankle funny and had fallen into the cold, wet snow. "Grow some backbone." Papyrus said, quoting his brother. Gavin snickered at this pun, despite the pain. "Hey, what ya doin' bro?" Gavin heard from behind him, he then heard the crunch of snow, "Sans?!" There was a moment of silence. "I-I was going to capture this human! To get recognition!" Gavin looked over at Sans, who was oddly calm. "C'mon, look at him? You aren't that cruel to kill this poor thing." Gavin was going to say something at the remark of calling him a 'poor thing', but under the circumstances he didn't want to say anything, after all Papyrus looked up to Sans more than he did to Gavin.

             "But Sans, If I kill this human I will be able to join the royal gua-" "But at what cost? I once made a promise to an old lady, while I was supposed to be on watch for humans at my station I there was this door leading into the ruins, and it was perfect for making knock knock jokes on. One time while I telling my normal ol' jokes, a kind old woman started to respond to one of my jokes, I told her a bunch of puns and jokes, she laughed every time, after a while it became a routine, I would go to the door and she would go to the door at the same time, we would tell jokes to each other everyday. One day, she stated in a mellow, soft tone 'hey, can I ask you something?' I of course, said yes. 'can you promise me that if a human ever comes through these very gates, can you protect them?' I, knowing that a human wouldn't come through these gates anytime soon, made the promise." Sans looked down at the ground for what seemed like eternity. Papyrus was silent. Sans let out a sniff, as if he was holding in tears, Gavin wondered how, because he didn't have muscles, but it was best not to ask questions. "Today, I knocked on the door to the ruins, and nobody answered." Gavin felt what seemed like a ton of emotional weight weighing on him, he had killed the kind, old woman.

          "But someone did come out of those ruins. A boy. She loved this boy. But every child has to leave their home eventually." Papyrus looked at Gavin, and then at Sans. Sans looked back at Papyrus, "Heya bro? I have a question. Can you promise me to not hurt this human?" Papyrus stared at Gavin coldly, but filled with sorrow. Papyrus nodded. "Thanks bro." Sans helped Gavin up to his feet, he then said something to Gavin that he thought Sans would never say, he whispered in Gavin's ear; "If I hadn't made that promise to Toriel that day, you'd be dead where you stand." Sans dug his boney fingers into Gavin's shoulders, he could have swore he had drawn blood. "If you hurt my brother, or me. I will kill you, you got that human?" Gavin nodded.
