Chapter 6

YOUR P.O.V

It didn't take long for the nice goat woman known as Tori, to make you feel very at home. She made you sit in a very comfy chair by the fire. She piled blankets onto you and handed you a slice of butterscotch-cinnamon pie and a cup of tea. As you ate, she and Sans were in the kitchen talking in whispers. You knew it was about you but you didn't mind. It's to be expected. 

You looked around the quaint little house. There were bookshelves filled to the brim with books about snails and a few joke books. To the right of you was a hallway leading to a staircase and just passed that were some other rooms. Presumably bedrooms. 

Toriel walked out of the kitchen and took the now empty plate from you. "Dear would you like to get some rest? There's a bedroom just down the hall. First door on your left." 

"Thank you ma'am." You said. 

You got up and made your way down the hall, entering the small room. You looked over at the bed which was child sized but looked very comfy. You went over to the corner to turn out the light and noticed a picture frame. A goat child and a human child with short brown hair and rosy cheeks stood in the picture. You couldn't see the human child's eyes. The picture gave you an unbearably, uneasy feeling. You set the portrait back down, turned off the light and found your way over to the tiny bed. Your legs dangled over the bottom but you were feeling too uneasy to care. you fell into a rough slumber.


Sans P.O.V

Toriel was out telling the kid to go to bed while Sans finished his own piece of pie. He had to carefully consider what he was going to tell Toriel. She didn't approve of the mob. She found it immoral and wrong, and in some small way, so did Sans but he wasn't about to abandon everything he had and everyone he knew. He wasn't willing to do what Toriel did. She had left the gang once her husband, Asgore murdered the first child back in the Underground. Now she could only be found by Sans and the River person. 

The other monsters in the mob would be taken straight to the Underground where Asgore is, while Sans is taken to Toriel's hidden house first. He always checks in with Toriel. He considers her more of a boss than Asgore and feels the need to get her approval on everything. 

Toriel reentered the kitchen with the kids plate. She put it in the sink and ran the water. "So what are your intentions for the child?"

"Well," Sans began, "I'm not sure. He/She is very willing to join. From what I can tell, they're homeless but very determined."

"You and I both know the power of determination... don't you remember Fri-" 

She was cut off by Sans who's voice became very deep and eye sockets went dark, "that was not Frisk!" He coughed and returned to normal. "Sorry Tori..."

She turned to face him with tears in her eyes. "I know Sans. I know it was... but what if it happens again?"

"That's why I wanna protect 'em. I couldn't protect Frisk but I can at least help him/her. And he/she can't stay close to me if I'm on the job all the time."

"Sans... If you want to protect them, why are you dragging them into such a dangerous job?" she questioned.

Sans looked down to the floor. He knew that there was no choice but to tell her. He would be putting them in danger but he had to. "Tori, he/she was given Echo Flower Tonic."

Toriel gasped and put her hand over her mouth, "Sans, they didn't! How did this happen! You didn't give it to them did you?"

"I had to Tori. They got shot and it was the only way to save them. I didn't want to but I had no choice." She sighed and leaned back against the counter. She looked so defeated. Sans hated seeing her this way so he walked over and put a hand on her shoulder. "It's alright Tori, I'll take care of the kid. Don't 'cha trust me?" 

"I do Sans," she sniffled, "be good to them."

"You know I will."

Suddenly their conversation was cut short by screaming. They both instantly recognized the screams as the kids. Without skipping a beat, they rushed out of the kitchen, towards the kids room.
