Chapter 25

Cory's POV

I watched Thomas walk off. As he turn around a corner, I turn my attention to the group.

"So what do you think?" Frisk asked, looking at RM.

"I'm not sure Frisk." RM replied. "Should we go ahead in a bit?"

"What? RM, Thomas just went on a walk! We're not abandoning him!"

"I don't feel good if we left him behind." Willow spoke, shifting a bit. "Cory?"

All eyes are on me. "Uh," I stuttered. "I-I wouldn't feel great if we did."

Frisk glare at me, before changing the topic. "Okay, how did you guys meet up?"

"We met up in a restaurant, chat a bit and walk back here."

They continue talking away as the world slowly gets darker. Their voices faded.

"I'll get you for that!"

I'm running. Why am I running from? I dived into a hiding place.

"Come out, come out wherever you are..."

I stiffed as the voice gets closer. Closer...

Just outside of my spot.

"There you are!" They pick me up, their eyes gleaming. "Do you remember me?"

"Cory!"

I looked around as the person is confused.

"Cory!" The voice is getting louder.

  =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=  

"Cory!"

I jolted at the sudden noise.

"Wh-what is it?" I question, rubbing my eyes.

"We're going, Cory." Frisk said, helping me up. "What about Thomas?"

She's silent but RM cut in.

"He never came back, Cory."
