Runaway

Chapter - 1

"SANS! WHAT WAS THAT?!"

"What was what?"

"Why didn't you do anything?!"

"I did do something."

"WHAT DID YOU DO THEN!?"

"I walked from Asgore's house to here. That's something."

It was another day of protecting the King of the Underground. So far there has been.... 27 attacks against Asgore Dreamer. Apparently it was 'terrorist' who kept attacking. Again and again Undyne, Alphys, Mettaton, Papyrus, Sans and (Y/n) had to keep coming to his house to drive them off. For the most recent attacks though, Sans didn't help.

'What's the point of helping? If Asgore dies then (Y/n) will just go to their save point.' The thought was repeated in Sans' mind every time they were walking to his house (or mansion). (Y/n) never used their save point anymore, but Sans believed they would RESET sooner or later. (Y/n) only used thier save point if it was absolutely necessary.

Sans confronted (Y/n) a week after they broke the barrier, asking when they're going to reset. Like all those other timelines, he said the same thing and they said the same thing. Of course, Sans didn't believe them, but he was left with no other choice. After all, it's been a month since that day he asked.

Man. . . . .

Sans wished she would RESET. And erase his memory too, so he wouldn't remember what Papyrus and everyone else thought if him.

-At Sans and Papyrus's House-

"SANS. WHY DIDN'T YOU HELP US!?" Papyrus scolded his brother.

"I did help, Paps. I distracted them." Sans said with his signature smile.

"HOW DID YOU DISTRACT THEM?"

"I sat down."

"HOW DID THAT DISTRACT THEM?"

"They got distracted looking at me, that they forgot you guys were there."

"T-That doesn't m-m-make any s-sense, Sans." Alphys commented on the conversation.

'No duh it was an excuse, Alphys.' Sans sneered in his mind. He couldn't tell them why he didn't help. They wouldn't understand. They'd think he was insane.

'Plus they wouldn't believe a guy like me, always smiling and telling jokes, would feel like this.'  Sans sighed. They knew he was lazy, so it was their fault. They knew he wouldn't help. After all, he already gave up.

He looked around at his friends. Everyone decided to drop the topic and make lunch. Alphys and Undyne were talking about anime, Asgore was sitting on the couch resting, Tori and Paps were cooking, and (Y/n) was looking at me. 'Wait. They were looking at me. Why are they looking at me?' They must have suspected something. Time to cover up.

"Hey guys."

"What is it, punk!" Undyne reacted first.

"You know those guys we were fighting?"

"You mean those guys we were fighting? Then yes." Undyne stared me down which sent a shiver up my spine, but I continued anyways.

*snort*

Tori just snorted. I think she knows what's up. Heh.

"I had a joke about fighting, but all I remember is it had a good punch line."

Toriel was the first one to really get the joke. One second later she was bursting into fits of laughter. So was (Y/n). Everyone else took a few moments before the realization settled in, and everyone groaned.

"SANS!!"

"Ya bro?"

"WAS THAT A PUN?"

". . . . Heh. Ya."

"OH MY GOSH SANS! DON'T POISON EVERYONE WITH YOUR PUNS. YOU ALREADY GOT MS.DREEMER AND (Y/N)!"

Papyrus was literally off the top. He was screaming his lungs off (if he had any). Sans was laughing just as hard as Toriel and (Y/n) were.

"Sans!" Undyne yelled. "Stop with the puns! They're not funny!"

"You mean punny?"

"S-Sans t-that one w-w-was s-so old." Alphys said between looking back at Toriel and (Y/n), who were quietly laughing still.

"It still tickles Tori and (Y/n)'s funny bones."

"Okay Sans! I-I think *snorts* that's enough." Toriel said.

"Come on Tori. You know you love them."

"Sans one more pun and I swear..." Undyne said, her eyes growing dark.

"You swear what? Patella me more." Sans pulled the string. And Undyne lost it. Toriel and (Y/n) were started laughing again, though everyone let out groans.

"SANS CAN YOU JUST PLEASE TAKE YOUR SOCKS AND GO UPSTAIRS?" Papyrus begged.

"Sure bro."

"AND DON'T COME BACK."

"Okay." Sans just stayed and stood where he was silently humming a song in his mind.

"SANS WHY AREN'T YOU DOING ANYTHING?"

"Didn't you just tell me not to bring my socks back to my room?"

"UNNHHHHHH!!" Undyne stared banging the pillow against her head, obviously annoyed by the pun-loving skeleton.

"Woah." Sans started. "Hey buddy don't hurts your head th-"

"SANS COULD YOU STOP BEING ANNOYING FOR JUST ON SECOND! THIS IS MADNESS!" Undyne screamed with the pillow covering her face.

"This is either madness or brilliance."

"Sans. One more and I swear. . ." Undyne threatened.

"Okay okay! Now it's so noisy in here too. Those screams you make a-noise me anyway." Sans said, trying to hide his growing smile.

". . . SANS." Papyrus spoke up again.

"Yeah bro..?" Sans said as he held his laughter in. This was going better than he thought.

"THAT WAS A PUN RIGHT."

"Wow bro! I'm a-sounded you found out." 'He looks soooo mad!' Sans thought in his head. Toriel and (Y/n) literally needed a paper bag just to breathe properly.

"AHHHH!! OH MY GOD SANS!" This time Alphys yelled.

"Sans! Can you STOP WITH THE PUNS FOR A DAY!?" Undyne yelled in frustration.

"Sorry. No can do. Don't get so sternum about it."

"NO WONDER PAPYRUS SAID YOU'RE A BURDEN SANS!" Undyne started then froze after realizing what she said.

". . . What . . . ?"

Wow! Over 900+ words! Yassss so long! Hope u enjoy! <3
