Erratum found Error alone in the staff room, "ErRoR" Erratum said, Error looked over to him, and gasped, looking at his distressed son in Erratum's arms. "What... what happened?" Error barely muttered, Looking at Erratum, Erratum sighed, "A mAn SOmeHoW MaNAgEd tO GeT InTo ThE SChoOl, DoNt WoRrY aBoUT HiM tHoUGh, he wOnT BE CoMiNG BaCK" Erratum  replied, looking down to Paperjam. Error sighed again, putting his hand in his forehead, "Where is he? did he get away?" Error questioned, Erratum quickly replied, "hE ShOuLd Be oUT FoR a FeW HouRs, NiGHtmARe iS deAlIng wiTh iT" Error only nodded. The door opened quickly, Revealing a worried Geno, with Paperjam's friends. "Error? are you okay? I was so worried when Reaper told me what happened" Geno exclaimed, rushing over to his younger brother. Error sighed, "I think I'm okay, I'm just worried" He explained, looking over to Paperjam, who was currently being bombarded by his friends.

Paperjam sighed shakily, "Guys, please, back up" Paperjam whined, trying to push a worried Undyne away from himself, Killer sighed, "We're just worried, Are you okay?" Killer asked, backing up, Undyne spoke up, "yeah dude, you okay?" Undyne repeated Killer, looking at him with worry, Paperjam shrugged, " I think I'm okay... I'm just a little shaken up, that's all..." Paperjam said, looking away from their concerned eyes, Undyne nodded hesitantly, "Okay Paperjam... we need to get to class now, see you later" Undyne murmured, looking at Paperjam, Said skeleton nodded, "Okay, see you later" Paperjam waved, watching his friends leave the staff room.

After everyone left, Error looked over to his oldest son, "Do you wanna go home and calm down a bit?" Error asked, kneeling down to face his son, Paperjam stayed silent, "I tHiNK You sHoULd gO HomE PaPErjAM, YoU onLy hAVe a few hOUrs Of sCHoOl lEFt anYWaY" Erratum announced, Paperjam thought for a bit, before giving a weak nod, "Yeah, I suppose you're right..." Paperjam muttered sadly, though, relief could be detected in his eye-sockets. Error nodded, "Okay, Erratum? could you get Core to cover for Me?" Error asked, glancing over to the god, Erratum nodded slightly, "oF CouRse I wiLl, i'Ll tAlK tO TheM iN a MinUtE" Erratum agreed, Smiling slightly.

Horror, Dust, and Fresh all sat together in Art class, "Do you think he's alright? he seemed pretty shaken up" Dust asked his two friends, worry evident in his tone of voice, Fresh replied quickly, "What do you think? it was obvious he was scared out of his mind, I doubt he'll be here for the rest of the day, maybe even tomorrow" Fresh voiced his thoughts, Horror made an angry sound, " Really? you think so? But tomorrow is the last day of school! then we won't see each other as often for a whole six weeks!" Horror shouted, gaining the attention of the teacher, no, his other-worldly counterpart? "You probably wanna be quiet, Ink might hear you" Pigment whispered, appearing next to Horror. The three jumped slightly, before any of them could reply, Ink spoke up, "Pigment, come here and stop disrupting the students" Ink ordered, looking at the four of them, "oh, Sorry brother" Pigment replied, walking back over to the front of the classroom, Dust made a confused look, "Brother? what's he talking about?" Dust asked, making sure to whisper, Fresh replied, "it's a cover story, Mr. Ink's twin, Pigment, is checking out the school to see if his children should come here" Fresh explained briefly, Horror nodded slowly, "yeah, I remember them going on about somethin' like that" He commented, sneaking a snack from his lunch in his mouth, Dust nodded, understanding, " I see... I get it" Dust replied. Dust looked over to Ink, "come on, let's do some work now, if we don't Mr. Ink might kill us" Dust commented, Fresh nodded, and then proceeded to do his work, the others following shortly after.

Blue sighed softly, tapping his pen on his desk repeatedly, lost in thought. He stopped tapping the desk and groaned loudly, "Why am I even thinking about Him anyway? It's bit like we're even friends" Blue muttered angrily, Glaring nothing. His eye lights softened, and then he sighed again, "eh, I wonder if Erratum's busy" He said to himself, jumping out of his chair.

When blue reached Erratum's classroom, he heard muffled talking, not thinking much about it, Blue opened the door, not bothering to knock.

Once Blue entered the classroom, he found Erratum all on his own, confused, Blue asked, "Erratum? who were you talking to?" Blue asked, Erratum lifted his head up sharply, "uH? BlUE? oH, I wAS JusT... TalKInG To mYSeLF" Erratum replied, avoiding Blue's eyes, Blue nodded slowly, "okay? anyway, do you wanna do anything? I'd ask Ink but he has class" Blue explained, Erratum nodded, "SuRE, I dONt haVE anything beTteR tO dO" Erratum responded, shrugging. Blue grinned, "Great! come on, I know just where to go!" Blue exclaimed, dragging Erratum out the classroom.

Paperjam sighed, "Do you need anything PJ? you're awfully quiet" Error asked, worry evident in his voice, Paperjam merely shrugged, not answering. Error sighed worryingly, "well, I got to go and pick up Gradient, you wanna come with me?" Error asked hopefully, Paperjam only shook his head. Error's frown deepened, " Okay... don't leave the house, okay?" Error told his son, getting his things ready, Paperjam nodded, and mumbled "sure" Error's frown worsened. Error looked over to Paperjam once more, before exiting the house. Paperjam sighed, and stood up, "huh, I'm really... tired" He mumbled, walking off.
