Time to go crazy5

Sans opened his eyes at the guard post. Her head felt like it was going to explode. I felt a burning sensation inside my eye socket, as if I had suffered a laceration. Every time I opened my eyes, white dots were floating around. I was sweating and the feeling on my back was unpleasant. Sans was trying to get up from her seat as she was breathing heavily, but stopped because her chest felt sore. The place where the human had stabbed me earlier was throbbing. Surely time would have gone back and no scars would have remained.

Sans lifted his shirt and checked his injured ribs. Earlier, one of my ribs was apparently broken by a toy knife. She didn't confirm, but she thought it was her left 5th rib. Naturally, her ribs were clean. There was not even a trace of her wounds. But even so, she kept throbbing. Sans smoothed my ribs. The tactile sensation from his fingertips and the unexplained pain did not seem to overlap. Rather than my ribs, I felt pain in the empty space beneath them. Sans slid his fingers under her ribs and stirred them. Nothing happened.

I had a doubt. There is nothing here, but why is it painful? Where does this pain come from? Is it pain that comes from the past? Or is it the pain of the soul? They say that feeling pain in a lost part is called phantom pain, but can feeling pain in a part that wasn't there in the first place be called phantom pain?

Sans thought as he looked down at his unscathed ribs. How did you break a bone with a toy knife earlier? If she hadn't gotten LOVE and become stronger, she would have died like before. She was amazed at how those plastic pieces could cut flesh and break bones. Actually, I was hit with a wooden stick at one point... . Oh, I've also been hit by notebooks and frying pans. Sans' mouth twitched. Sans decided that the wound, which wasn't a wound, wouldn't be a problem, so she moved on to Snow Din. She didn't know what her child could have done while she was asleep.

The first place Sans headed to was near his guard post in Snowdin. Unfortunately, there was no papyrus. He had no children. He was able to find traces of the child passing by at the guard post. There were decorations that didn't exist before. It was written in ketchup. Papyrus, who was eager to be at the guard post, couldn't have done that, so it seemed like the human left behind the ketchup that Sans left inside the guard post. The letters written in red ketchup looked eerie as they looked like they were written in blood. Sans read the writing.

'You'll regret it'

Sans' eyes widened after reading the letter the child left behind. Anxiety came over me. I had to find Papyrus quickly.

Sans repeatedly moved through space briefly and headed toward Snowdin. There were no other monsters in sight. Only dust flew in the quiet Snowdin. Dust covered inside the Dogo's guard post, dust left around by dog ​​footprints, dust accumulated on stones exposed above the snow, dust sprinkled on the road, dust mixed with snow, dust, dust, dust. All I could see were footprints and dust. Papyrus' puzzle was also seen being neglected and abandoned. I didn't see it this time, but it was just as it was when Papyrus last inspected it, and nothing had changed.

However, Papyrus, who must have been disappointed that the person he wanted to see so much did not respond to the puzzle, was nowhere to be found.

Sans passed the three-way intersection and arrived at Snowdin Village. Snowdin Village was eerily quiet. Sans knew when the town became quiet. It was when Alphys evacuated the monsters because the child was killing all the monsters. At times like this, Papyrus always-

No, Papyrus! That child is something that cannot be corrected no matter what!

Sans threw open the door to the house he and his younger brother shared. The whole house was empty. Sans suddenly slammed the door shut.
