Fun Level 65: Magi is Here

Magi constantly looked for Sunny. Sans wasn’t that concerned. His boy couldn’t have gone far. Magi kept saying he was the one to blame and that he was just searching to cover up his actions, but that wasn’t true. Besides, why would he try and steal his own son when he should be getting more visitation?

“You’re hiding him,” Sans accused her. “You’re keeping him from me by saying he ran away.” His light guiders went out in his eye sockets. “I signed your stupid release papers. Gave consent to your ‘other husband’,” he mocked. “Death isn’t hanging over your head now, and I won’t feel guilty if I tap into your new hub’s savings each time you break that contract this time.”

“No, no. You are the one hiding him,” Magi accused him. “Sunny would never run off like that, I raised him better than that.” Magi kept looking around though. “I know you took him, Sans, kids don’t just up and disappear into the air.”

“Well? He was kind of born right from the air,” Sans reminded her.

“He has had absolutely no tell-tale signs or symptoms of any problems.” Magi started to knock on the neighbor’s doors. “I know my son is here somewhere.”

Sans muttered as he tagged along behind her, knocking door to door. “Come on, Maggie Pie? Let’s stop this? I’m telling you, he’s not here,” he said gritting his teeth. “Maybe we can figure out where Sunny ran away to?”

“Is that why?” Magi asked him. “Did you take him so that you could try and make me stay? Again?”

“No, I’m trying to make sure the magpie doesn’t wake up the neighborhood.” Sans smiled. Heh. “Come on, Magpie, go home and get my kid. Keep your end of the deal or I’ll take so much more from your hubby ‘cause of that contract, that I’ll be even richer than him. Then I’ll buy a squawking bird and name it Magi, cause fair is fair.”

“You.” Magi pointed straight at him. “You never talk to me like that.”

Well, that week was hard enough. “Stop overreacting, Magi. All you’re doing is bugging the neighbors.”

“I’ll show you overreacting if you don’t give up my son.” Magi knocked on yet another neighbor’s door. “I know he’s here somewhere.”

“Yes?” A human slave answered the door. “May I help you, ma’am?”

“My son is missing,” Magi insisted. “He’s a skeleton. Have you seen him?”

The human slave shook her head. “No, ma’am. Sorry.”

“Don’t call me ma’am,” Magi said. “Makes me feel old.”

Sans moved toward the door and looked at the human slave in front of him. He must have had new neighbors move in. Around twenty maybe. Not . . . bad. Able to answer the door. Spoke monster. Not perfectly, but pretty damn good for a human. She was dressed in standard rags though. So, probably not there through any kind of physical pleasure. Those tended to be dressed fancier.

“Ma’am?” She asked again. “Your skeleton son, I have not seen him. I must dust now. Getting late.” She looked toward Sans. “Must dust.”

Housemaid. Usually housemaids only spoke bits of monster. She was really good at it.

“Will you stop gawking at the pretty human while our son is missing?” Magi said to Sans.

“Name is Sans, human.” Sans shook her hand. Humans were pretty obedient. She’d probably stay where she belonged. He remembered that day not too long ago when another kid came through, bringing Sunny and Magi back from another dimension. Straight to him. Weirdest thing ever.
