Chapter 1: Something not "Usual."

A/N: Frisk is a girl in this fanfic. Now, enjoy my first chapter!

"If you keep going the way you are now... your gonna have a bad time."

I blinked but when I opened my eyes, Sans wasn't there. There was a strange feeling in my stomach, but I pushed it down. I took a deep breath in, and turned back to snowy white path.  I kept moving, walking slowly with my Tough Glove on my hand leaving a trail of dust and my footprints in the snow behind me. I looked down at the ground as I slowly walked towards Snowdin. An emotionless grin was on my face. I had no reason to keep it there, but I did.

Because I wanted to.

I continued to trudge along to Snowdin, only driven by one desire: Death. I wanted to kill. I wanted to punch a Monster so hard, they shattered into millions and millions of tiny dust particles. I shook my head, quelling my thirst for death temporarily. I'd need it... but not now.

Later.

Finally, when I looked up, I saw the sign, and as usual, I walked up to the sign and read it in my head:  Welcome to Snowdin! My grin shifted into a cruel smile as I looked around. The place was deserted. As usual. Sweet silence was all around the town. As usual. Except for the occasional slight breeze howling through the town, of course. As usual. But something was different. Something wasn't the "usual", but what? I once again pushed this out of my mind for now. 

It wasn't important.

I walked through the town, my eyes occasionally fluttering to the colorful houses, with the snow on them. The bitter winter wind bit at my cheeks, and slipped through my thin clothing, causing me to shudder. The wind trailed down my spine, and curved around to my stomach. The intensity of the breeze reminded me that despite the power I held, I was still human. But what made me dangerous wasn't the weapons I claimed, my piggy strength, or anything of the sort. what made me dangerous, was my patience. My patience to keep moving endlessly through the underground. My patience to strike the Monsters down one by one again and again. My patience for the challenge at the end if each massacre. That is what I believed.

But still, that nagging feeling...

I kept pushing down the feeling in my stomach that something was different. But the feeling kept growing. I hated it. Finally I got to the edge of the town, and stopped. I was reluctant to continue. I didn't know why.  I tried to figure out why I had stopped. Why I had just stood there. But I came up with no answers. I gave up, took a breath, and walked into the fog. 

The fog got thicker as I walked closer to meet him. I knew he was waiting for me. He knew what he was doing, however stupid and idiotic it may be. Because it would get him killed. I knew this... Because I'd done it all before.

Suddenly I stopped. I could barley make out the outline of a tall skeleton. 

As usual I listened to him until he stopped talking. I waited a second, then took a step forward. I repeated this process two more times, before stopping to actually think about what he said for once. Thinking? I'd never done that... I'd just... kill... Because it was fun. Because I wanted to. Because I could...

Right?

I was jerked from my thoughts by Papyrus's shrill voice.

"IS THIS A HUG OF ACCEPTANCE? WOWIE! MY LESSONS ARE ALREADY WORKING! I PAPYRUS, WELCOME YOU WITH OPEN ARMS!"

I looked up at him, arms open, shaking, and I could hear him taking shaky breaths. He was clearly terrified. I felt something tugging at my gut. Something was wrong. No, all of this felt wrong. But how could it be? I'd thought... I'd heard...

I looked down, clenched my fists, and clenched my teeth. Something was definitely wrong. I was feeling something. An emotion. I hadn't felt those in forever, other than my negative ones that I'd allowed in little bits at a time...  Because I didn't want to feel.

So why? I thought. Why is he, so nice to me? Why am I feeling something? Why do I want to feel?

I stopped.

I don't deserve this.

"Why?" I whispered. "Why?!" I said louder, looking up with tears in my eyes. I could tell I had let them back in, my emotions. "Why are you so nice? Why are you so nice to me? You say the same thing every time! Your kindness never falters! You always offer that 'hug of acceptance', even though I can tell your scared shi- senseless!" I took a breath, and smiled. I was still gonna go through with this, even if it destroyed me. I had to put that barrier up again, and block out my emotions... "You... heh, don't get it, do you? I'm going to kill you, and there is nothing you can do about it. I will slice your head off, and leave you to wither to dust. I-"

"NO YOU WON'T." I heard Papyrus say.

I looked at him, surprise in my eyes. "You think I can't? Thats-"

"I KNOW THAT YOU CAN, BUT ITS THAT YOU WON'T." He interrupted me.

"Oh, really? Is that a challenge?" I smiled, sipping the tears out of my eyes.

"NO, BUT, I CAN FEEL IT. YOU HURT MONSTERS. BUT ITS BECAUSE, YOUR HURTING ON THE INSIDE TOO, RIGHT? IS THAT WHY YOU KILL MONSTERS?"

I opened my mouth to say something, but nothing came out. I tried to speak, but I couldn't. Everything went black, and the buttons appeared, all in order: FIGHT, ACT, ITEMS, and MERCY. I could feel.

"I SAID IT BEFORE AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN: I SEE GREAT POTENTIAL WITHIN YOU. I KNOW YOU CAN DO BETTER. YOU JUST HAVE TO TRY." Papyrus coaxed me.

"Why?" I asked again. "Why are being so nice to me? If you knew what I've done, you'd run away, I don't deserve kindness... So why?" The tears in my eyes came back and  spilled over the edge of my eyes, one by one.

"BECAUSE," Papyrus said, "EVERYONE DESERVES KINDNESS, EVEN IF THEY DO BAD THINGS. EVERYONE HAS GREAT POTENTIAL. BY SHOWING KINDNESS TO SOMEONE BAD, THEY MIGHT BE MORE WILLING TO BE BETTER. AND THAT'S NOT THE ONLY REASON."

I was silent, the tears stopping.

"ITS BECAUSE... I BELIEVE IN YOU, HUMAN! I KNOW YOU CAN DO BETTER, EVEN IF YOU DON'T THINK SO."

I stood there, looking at the FIGHT button, and then the MERCY. I felt a single tear run down my cheek. I pressed the mercy button.

Suddenly, waterfalls were pouring out my eyes. I dropped to ground, threw my Tough Glove off, and let out long sobs. I kept saying "I'm sorry" over and over again. The fight was over. I felt bony arms wrap around me, and something pat my back. "THERE THERE. YOU'RE FINE. YOU DID GREAT! YOU DIDN'T DO A VIOLENCE!"

"Bro?" I heard a familiar voice behind me. 

"LOOK SANS! I FIXED THE HUMAN! I DID IT! I TOLD YOU I COULD DO IT!"

I turned around, to see the other skeleton standing there with a relieved expression on his face. 

"Heh... heh... hehe.... Good job bro." Sans said in a shaky voice. He must have been so scared... scared that his little brother would be hurt once more.

Sans and I made eye contact for a split second before I looked away. I couldn't bear to look at him knowing all the pain I had caused him. All the times I had killed everyone he loved. All the times I killed his brother... him.  

"WELL SANS! I'M GOING TO BRING THIS HUMAN HOME, FEED HER SOME OF MY SPECIAL SPAGHETTI, AND PUT HER TO BED!"

"Wait what?" both me and Sans said. 

Papyrus picked me up, bridal style. I squirmed, but Papyrus had a good hold on me. 

"Papyrus! Please put me down!" I said blushing. I hated being picked up, especially bridal style. 

"NYEH HEH HEH!!!! THE GREAT PAPYRUS ISN'T HEARTLESS, YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY HUNGRY AND TIRED! I SHALL TAKE CARE OF THAT!"

And with that, Papyrus, carrying me, and Sans ran all the way to the Skelebro's house.

As soon as we got there, Sans unwillingly unlocked the door, and Papyrus ran into the house, and set me on the couch. There I sat, trying to stay awake. Just as I was about to completely close my eyes and fall asleep, I saw Sans sit by me. My eyes snapped open. I shifted uncomfortably. 

"So... kid. I gotta question for you." he said, slight caution in his voice.

I stayed silent.

"...Why? Why did you choose to spare him? What changed?"

BOOM! How's that for my first chapter? Comment what you thought of it! Until next time,

SEEYA! :)
