In And Out (a deltarune fanfic)

Chapter 2: Finding A Way Out

Susie fell to her knees, exausted and gasping for air. About a minute later, she got up to go to her room. It was pretty empty, other than a few dark posters, a black and blue mattress, and a couple weapons, though they were (mostly) fake. Susie found a box under her bed, containing around 3 sets of handcuffs. She had a pretty good friendship with officer undyne, and she let her grab some at her last visit, 'just in case'.

She took them downstairs to her now limply laying father and put them on his wrists. The teen then placed one side of the remaining handcuff set to the chain connecting the ones on her dad. She then put her wrist into the other side and locked them, putting the keys in her left pocket (she brought 2 sets of handcuffs.). Susie dragged the much older monster to the police station. Once inside, she saw a familiar face behind the front desk... Undyne! Someone she actually knew! She never talked about her life at home, to anyone, but she knew that she could trust at least someone!

"Officer Undyne? Can- can you give me a hand here?" She asked, motioning to her father on the ground. "Uhhh... Who even IS this?!?!"

"My dad."

"Why are you two handcuffed together then?"

"I have come to report him!" Susie replied, tossing the keys to the cop. "What for?" "Tortu- child abuse..."

"Oh. My. Gosh. What the-!"

"So, can you help me? I can't really get these all off myself!"

"Oh! Yeah, sure!"

And with that, Undyne took the keys and unlocked the cuffs. Susie took a huge breath, and sighed, rubbing her sore wrist.
"Where do you live?" Undyne asked, taking Susie's dad to the back room as she followed them. She then put the monster into a cell to wait for trial or something. "Over. Somewhere...!" She responded.

"Do you want me to call child care, or services?"

"Nah!"

"Well, got anyone to take care of you? How old even ARE you?!?!"

"No, and almost 15, or something."

"Well, your dad's gonna be in here for a long time, probably, so... Maybe you should go to, like, an orphanage?"

"I can take care of myself..." Susie answered under her breath. "If you EVER need ANYTHING, or something happens, call me, Kay? I just want you (and everyone) to be safe, alright?"

"Heh. I will!" With that, she walked out.

"Darn it! I forgot to tell her about trial! Meh! I'll call her later!"

Susie walked down the cold, dark streets of her not-so-friendly neighborhood. She made it into her house. Once inside, she stopped. Just stopped. She waited for a few seconds, and... Susie dashed up to her room, realising what she hadn't at the station. I really AM alone. Welp! I guess I'm used to it... She sat on her bed, completely out of it, and finally got up a few seconds later. When the room was dark, the light off and the window pitch black from the night sky, she did the 'unthinkable'.

Sure, Kris did this too, but not exactly what Susie had in mind. Right then and there, she took out her soul carefully, it was emitting a warm white light to the dark room. After a minute or so... She broke it in half, ripping at it carelessly! She didn't care! This was what had to happen! The soul was lightly bleeding, having been torn, that was a better case scenario. She took the right side, and put it into a clear glass jar from under her bed. The glass cracked slightly as the soul (or, the right side, at least.) Was put in. It was then that Susie experienced an indescribable pain in her right side and eye. The eye was worse, and she felt like she couldn't move. Like something, or one, was blocking her from fleeing.

An hour or so later, the pain had died down enough, though she looked in a mirror to see that most of the colour in her eye had been drained. It also hurt when nothing was covering it, though it hurt constantly. She kept her hair over it from then on and left people to think what on earth she was up to or doing. It felt terrible when people, even herself, looked at it, and, from afar, you could still tell how uncomfortable this made her life. All of the things that nothing could cure, not even her...

Woo! 805 words! I never thought that I would make such a long chapter here! Thx for 5 reads (though I'm pretty sure I went as a reader 5 times, but nvm that!)! Please leave a comment if you enjoy this story, and stay tuned for more additions to the storyline! I might also start an artbook, but I suck at drawing. If you want me to write a certain story, comment (characters, povs, anything!)! Same goes for drawings!
