Chapter 13: Part 1 | Segment 0.2 | A Boneful Encounter
I Look up mustering the strength to see a wide, toothy-grin on his face. He wears a blue hoodie, a white t-shirt underneath, black shorts with white stripes, and a pair of slippers. His eyes empty but with a single dot in the center assuming its his pupil. His stands over me; his shadow covering me entirely I'm unable to make out what monster he is. He stares down at me, and with a slight drawl and creepy voice, he says,
???: … You should be careful, H U M A N… Lazing and sleeping around could get you caught by the royal guards. And not to mention… You can get really hurt.
Polly: Haa… Haa… Heh, I'll be fine.
I get up using the tree as assistance, I walk ahead; past him. "What's happening to me? This feeling… it's similar to when I had those memories and that "Zell" guy in my head," I contemplated. Swaying a little from side to side as I walk to see up ahead a bridge across with a gate too wide to stop anyone. As I do, that very person follows right behind me.
???: You know… I'm supposed to on watch for humans and capture them.
Polly: Really? Haa… Haa… Well, i'm vulnerable, right now.
???: Yeah, but I don't really care about capturing anybody but now my brother, Papyrus… He's a human-hunting FANATIC.
Polly: Should I be afraid?
???: Fear is subjective in this case but me personally, I think you should. He's a very, scary, and awesome, guy.
Polly: … Ha, I don't believe you-Erk!
I make it to the bridge and lay against the gate's pillar. I get sudden flashes of memories, I hold my head. "Memories…" I thought.
???: Hey, human,'you okay? Your lookin' a lil wobbly…
Here's an enhanced and grammatically corrected version of your passage with improved visuals:
A memory flickers in my mind like an old VHS tape. I see a kid with long silver hair and a flowing green scarf, standing on a wide, snow-covered wooden bridge. The bridge stretches over a frozen river, its icy surface glimmering faintly in the winter light. Then, I notice a small hand—my hand, but younger. In it, I'm holding a snowball, and just as I'm about to throw it, the silver-haired kid runs up and pelts me with one first. The impact knocks me down into the snow, but I scramble back to my feet quickly. Just as I prepare to retaliate, the memory freezes and shifts.
Suddenly, I'm somewhere else, watching two children laughing and playing at a picnic, drawing and coloring. Then another memory flashes before my eyes—a weight in my arms. I'm carrying an unconscious child, tears slipping from my eyes, falling one by one as I struggle to keep going.
Before I can process it, the memories fade, and I'm left standing in a space filled with nothing but darkness. A voice echoes around me, pulling me back to reality.
??: You're weird… You peek into things that have nothing to do with you…
Polly: Who are you-
??: It's not your fault either… Truly, you are pitiful.
Polly: Just tell me who you are!
??: Remember the name of who is true… And the origin of your strength… Chara, "The First Fallen Human."
Polly: So, that means your the one in Toriel's book.
Chara: … Before you go you should know… Beware the man-
Chara's voice is cut short when I hear Mani's voice calling my name.
Mani: Polly… Polly…! Polly!
Polly: Beware who!?... W-what… Mani!? Where's Chara?
Mani: Chara?... Oh! The kid in the book! But… You met them?
Polly: Was it a dream perhaps?
I contemplated for a moment and saw the figure appear in front of me again but this time his pupils disappeared and the stuck and still wide smile on his face.
??: You're just a "fleshed" out box of surprises, today, huh…
Polly: … I thought you weren't going to capture anyone today, changed your mind?
??: Heh, seeing you just a few seconds ago, does make you a little sus, but, no. Instead…
I see him extend his hand, I take a moment to look at his hand and disagreed to shake it but he insisted I should "to greet a new pal."
Polly: … No, Why should I do that?
??: uh-uh, don't you wanna be friends??
Polly: No, I don't really care to be friends with you…
??: I could show you the way out to this place, that's what you want, right?
Polly: ... I do.
??: C'mon take my hand, Don't you know how to greet a new pal?
Polly: … Alright.
I shook his hand but immediately a sound went off, it was like the sound of a balloon deflating. But then I realized it was a whoopee cushion; a prank. It was hidden in his glove that he wore, despite me looking at it initially I didn't see that coming at all. The tension that was once there disappeared immediately.
???: Pfft, hahaha! The ol' whoopee cushion in the hand trick. Its ALWAYS funny, lol.
Polly: … Pfft, wow, that was terrible…
???: The names' Sans… Sans the Skeleton, I believe we got off on the wrong foot.
Polly: Its Polly. I don't have a title or a last name… At least, I don't remember it.
Sans: cool. anyway, your a human, right? of course you are… that's hilarious though, i've said this before but i'm actually on watch for people like you and i don't really care to capture any one of your guys, so it's all good… but my brother on the other hand; Papyrus, is a human hunting-
Polly: FANATIC, yeah I know. You said it earlier- Can I pass through this gate thingy?
I begin to cross the wide gate as I hear footsteps far ahead marching their way through.
Sans: 'yeah, just go through the gate thingy my brother made the bars to wide to stop anyone.
Polly: It would appear that way…
Sans: that's actually my brother up ahead, you could be caught and taken in… i got an idea, go ahead and you should find a conveniently shaped lamp to hide behind.
Polly: Okay? Why not to that post over there?
Sans: ok.
Polly: Great!
I ran ahead and behind the short post behind it.
[M]
Polly: A short skeleton, huh… He's doesn't seem like a bad guy, but he can emit creepy vibes sometimes…
Mani: I hear ya. Looking at his stats and what he is known as "Comic Sans" or "Sans the skeleton". There is another but the last name blocked out.. Weird…
Polly: Oh? So, like the font then? Interesting.
Mani: He is also known as a stand-up comedian at a MTT Resort which MTT means "Mettaton." and a… "lazybones"?
Polly: I wonder what his brother looks like…
Mani: I wonder as well!
Polly: Shh! look, he's here…!
Mani: But, no one can hear me?
[M]
I rest on the post looking at another individual marching up to sans. A taller Skeleton I assume is the older one. He wears a weird and unique armor? It looks like a poorly made costume. This guy also wears an orange-red cape, a white chestplate with a gold trim on the bottom, and blue briefs with a golden belt. "It looks goofy," I thought.
Sans: sup, bro?
Papyrus: You know what's "sup", brother!
Sans: i do?
Papyrus: It's been a week and you still haven't recalibrated. Your. Puzzles! You just hang around your station! What are you even doing!?!
Sans: looking at the new kid at my station. wanna say hi?
Papyrus: No!!! I don't have time for that?!
Sans: you don't?
Papyrus: What if a human comes through here, Sans?
Sans: yeah, that would be 'BONE'shattering.
Papyrus: That's not even funny, Sans! Ugh, I will be the one! I must be the one! I will capture. The. Human!...
Sans: … gotcha, paps-
Papyrus: 'Then. I, The Great Papyrus… Will get all the things, I, utterly deserve! Respect, recognition… I will finally be able to join the royal guard! And then people will-
Papyrus begins to babble on about joining the royal guard and fame. Sans simply stands there seemingly to fall asleep. "Is he… Asleep? But standing?? How??? I contemplated for a moment. Papyrus notices this and gets frustrated even more at Sans.
Sans: relax… look, there's someone over there that may be able to help you.
Papyrus: Sans, I swear on King Asgore if what you're saying isn't true-
Sans: ZZZ… ZZZ… ZZZ…
Papyrus: A-alright, brother, I am going to look, right, now!
Papyrus turned around to see the station empty.
Papyrus: Sans! There is no one even there!
Sans open his eyes and looked for himself and said, "huh… i guess your right."
Papyrus: Sans! Your not helping, you lazybones! All you do is sit and boondoggle! You get lazier and lazier every day!
Sans: hey, take it easy. i've gotten a ton of work done today. A skele-ton.
Sans turns around and shrugs with one eye close as if he was facing an audience.
Mani and I snickered in silence as stayed hid behind a tree.
Papyrus wasn't pleased with joke as he marched up to Sans and raised his arms and did something unexpected..!
