[h2][color=6ecff6]Sans![/color] - In His Front Yard[/h2]

[color=6ecff6]"I'm SO sorry!"[/color] Sans replied to Pridemoor's disappointment. He didn't want to let the good king down, but what could he do? He had no eggs, or sausage! If only he was at Waterfall, he could get some Water Sausage. But that wasn't the case. Thankfully, out of the kindness of his heart, he forgave Sans and decided to decree a #52! [color=6ecff6]"Wait. Fifty-Two?"[/color] Sans took a moment to process it, before a bony fist met with his palm. [color=6ecff6]"Ah! Five-Two! How SMART!"[/color] He cheered, allowing Pridemoor to take all the food he wanted.

And then, he said something that shook Sans up inside.

[b]"you shall get a corner piece of the cake on my special day!"[/b]

[color=6ecff6]"R-REALLY?!"[/color] He said, taken aback. How generous! How kind! The cake Sans was told to make for Pridemoor's Special Day... He was going to share it! With HIM! A blush crossed Sans' face as he was speechless at Pridemoor's words, shaking with happiness. 

And as Pridemoor decided to bid farewell, and somehow managed to catch himself on a nail and fall, Sans was still speechless as the entire office became silent. It took Sans a moment to realize what had happened, but, when he did, he inhaled deeply. 

[color=6ecff6]"OH MY GOD!"[/color]

Running outside, Sans slapped his hands to both sides of his skull as he saw Pridemoor on the ground, puddling in red liquid. [color=6ecff6]"Are you okay?!"[/color] He asked, worried as could be. Suddenly, however, he saw Gutsman! He could help, right?!

But he was eating his fence! Sans stomped a foot. [color=6ecff6]"Guts! Now's not the time for eating my fence!"[/color] He yelled, though for a moment, Gutsman seemed to not notice what was happening. But as he looked down, the robot jumped into action! He shook the king, but it did nothing! But then...

He proceeded to kiss the king! Sans' eyes widened, and...

He stared for a moment, but, as Gutsman stood, and went to eat, Pridemoor was still laying there. 

[color=6ecff6]"I-I THOUGHT KISSES FIXED THINGS!"[/color]

Quickly, Sans rushed to Pridemoor's side, getting down on his knees, hands puddled in the red liquid. He tried Gutsman's shaking technique, but it still didn't work. [color=6ecff6]"Snap out of it, King! Wake up this instant! This is NOT funny!"[/color] Sans' handywork had gotten the red liquid all over Pridemoor's armor, making a mess. He was in full on panic mode. But realized something:

[color=6ecff6]"Human souls leave the body when the person dies, right? Like Monster souls... His soul didn't leave! Maybe he's not dead!"[/color] Sans, hopeful, pondered what to do in a hurry. There were no doctors in the village, and he had no medical experience. As he put a hand up to his chin to think, he caught a whiff of a familiar smell... His homemade ketchup. 

Putting his hand in his mouth, he smiled. [color=6ecff6]"Delicious!"[/color] He stated, bony hand plopping out of his mouth, perfectly clean. He then looked down at Pridemoor, realizing he was still possibly dying.

[color=6ecff6]"Guts! What do we do?!"[/color] He questioned, freaking out again.

[h2][color=a36209]Goombella[/color] - Home's Streets[/h2]
Listening to his words, she admitted to herself he wasn't lying about her book binging. But she didn't have to like that. He was lecturing HER? Of course she knew it was unhealthy, but, she was despreate to find out something, anything about that tower looming in the distance. Or just a way to get home. None of the books had such knowledge yet, however. She was stuck with hoping as she read on, and on. It was tiring, and she noted she was neglecting herself. But she couldn't just admit Mr. L was right. [color=a36209]"I'm fine...!"[/color] Goombella retorts, looking away stubbornly.

Glancing back at him, she decided to believe his words for the moment, about just being in the area. He saw an opportunity, and took it. He hadn't targeted her earlier, or days ago. She let her guard down somewhat as he mentioned Pridemoor, as she was pretty peeved at him too. It was hard to take those notices off her door without arms, or a step ladder... So he'd just pinned them, one on top of the other. Her newest invitation was still on her door.

[color=a36209]"He's certainly annoying."[/color] She added, finding his insult of Pridemoor accurate. Sadly, it wasn't like he was going to just fall over and die, (Not that she really wanted him too, she just wished he'd be quiet...) so, she figured he'd be around for a long while. [color=a36209]"I can't believe he has invited me to his party [i]four times.[/i]"[/color] She said with a tone of annoyance, not really wanting to go to his party. Though, if she didn't, she wondered what he'd do? Probably nothing, as usual. Maybe make a scene... But Sans and Amethyst were around for a reason. It'd be fine, she was sure.

Her face scrunched up as her stomach growled again. Her thoughts? [color=a36209][i]'Why do you have to remind me...?'[/i][/color] 

[Hider=Meanwhile, In Sans' World...][Center][b]UNDERSWAP UNIVERSE, 1 YEAR AFTER SANS's DISAPPEARANCE...[/b][/Center]

Upon exiting the door to the ruins, Chara stepped through the snow once again, like the child had multiple times before. Reset after reset... Just to see what would change. Knowing who to find up ahead, approaching the bridge that Sans made into a trap with bars anyone could fit through. Except... The bars weren't on the bridge at all. Glancing about with a confused expression, Chara didn't see Papyrus, either... He always did his joke right here. Why was this different?

Walking along, Chara realized there were a number of differences: Neither of the brothers were anywhere. Their sentry stations were even gone. All signs of them ever being here, were gone. Compared to the other resets, this was certainly different. Different enough that the curious child had to march on, to Snowdin. Just to see what exactly the bros had been doing.

The rest of the trip was normal. Dogs, dogs, and more dogs to pet. Chara had pet them all, and progressed to Snowdin. It was once Chara was in town, the realization that something was truly wrong hit. The house the brothers lived in had a sign out front that said "FOR RENT" on it, and ask Chara asked around about the brothers, the word was surprising.

[b]"Brothers? No, friend, you're mistaken. Only one skeleton lived here. Eh? His name? heck if I remember!"
"He was such an upset young man. He seemed to be constantly searching for something, but never found it."
"He smelled awful!"
"A loner, most certainly. Never talked to anybody."[/b]

After a bunch of useless information, Chara managed to find one helpful individual. Muffet was thankfully still around, and selling her sweets as expensive as ever.

[b]"You're talking about Papyrus? Ahuhuhu~ A funny one, he was. But he left some time ago. I believe he was heading to Hotland. Sorry I can't help more, but maybe buy a few treats for the road? Help a spider out~"[/b]

Heading towards Waterfall with a bag full of donuts, the thought of figuring out what was going on and finding the Skele Bros filled Chara with [color=ed1c24]DETERMINATION.[/color][/Hider]
