Chapter 19

May be triggering to some.

Error sighed, hugging his knees and hiding his face in them.

The sun was rising, all too soon it seemed, lighting up the destroyed city.

It was like the purge gad ended, but was replaced with something more..something deadly..something...even more dangerous.

Ink had claimed frantically that he saw someone or something eat another being, but they were in too much of a panic after he said that and they quickly came up with an excuse that maybe he had witnessed Horror having a life person as a meal, which is something he would do.

Geno was the second one that had woken up in the middle of the night, reliving horrid memories. He looked down at his wrist, his gaze traveling from scar to scar.

He pulled his sleeve back down and sighed. He placed a hand on his stomach. He would be a mother..he was carrying a living being inside of him..he was carrying a child.

He looked over at Reaper, who had an arm over Geno protectively. They had both fallen asleep sitting up, and Reaper subconsciously hugged Geno tightly in his sleep.

Geno smiled softly and kissed his cheek. "Out of all the flirty, annoying assholes in the world..i'm glad you're going to be the father of our kid.." He whispered and nuzzled into his neck, breathing softly.

Swapfell was in a chair next to a table Dust was on. They had yiven him pillows and blankets to provide some comfort, and Swapfell refused to leave his side.

Ink was next to Error, soundlessly asleep and hugging his lover's waist. Error pet his skull softly, making the smaller purr quietly.

"I'm sorry this happened..I would give my life for things to back the way they were.." He whispered softly to his sleeping lover.

Alphys and Undyne were curled up on the couch. It was very strange that they had grown feeling for eachother, but nobody really questioned it.

When sunlight finally rose enough to light up the room, Geno was the first to open his eye. Then again, he was already awake. He gently shook Reaper awake, who quickly opened his eyes, relaxing when there was no present danger.

"Good morning, my love." He kissed Geno's temple softly. "Good morning Reaps.." He murmured, nuzzling him. "We need to start getting our stuff together..we have to leave soon." He sighed unhappily.

"Okay..I'll go get Swapfell and Dust up. Get you get Alphys and Undyne?" Reaper helped Geno up, who nodded, watching Reaper leave.

Sadness washed over him as he looked at the partly boarded window. "What has this world become.." He murmured.

He gently shook Undyne away, yelping as a knife was instantly held to his throat. He quickly held his hands up in surrending, gulping.

"Oh, sorry Geno..I didn't know it was you. 'Animal instinct' people used to say I have." She grumbled, her fins on her head drooping as she put her knife away.

"That's okay..I understand. Reaper told me to get you up, since we have to leave soon." He said and Undyne groaned dramatically, laying back down. "Okay." She sighed.

Geno left to get his brother and Ink, leaving Undyne to wake Alphys up. He was surprised to see Error awake, though he looked exhausted.

Error could feel the bags under his eyes and he kept nodding off, but would quickly left his head up every time.

"Error?..did you sleep at all last night?" Geno asked, concerned. Error lifted up his hand and pinched his thumb and index finger together, only leaving a tiny gap between them however.
