I was scared. I was scared that my suffering was going to cause the people that I loved pain. And so what did I do? I ran. I ran away like the coward I was. But, before I disappeared, I made sure that I made the one person I couldn't live without hate my very existence. Before I disappeared, I did something that broke me, but would've eventually saved my ex. Before I disappeared, I silenced the melody in Tyler's heart. My name is Lyra Davis, and this is my story.

I sit there in the dark. In my own room. Sans and Papyrus were out at the moment. They were on patrol. Even though all of the underground was now free, I still remained. I wanted to stay in the underground. I don't deserve to live up above. I wouldn't want to even if I did deserve it. I can't forgive myself. How could I? I killed so many people in the past. I can never forget the looks I received from them. And how could I? It's a memory forever on my mind. [Trigger warning for depressing topics. Don't read if depressed or easily triggered by it.]
