Chapter Text

All that could be heard was heavy breathing. It poisoned the air and everything around it.

 

A small figure was standing near the rails. Shaky hands gripped the metal, a rattling noise coming from bone hitting steel.  

 

Footsteps.

Someone was walking, no- someone was running. They were coming to get him. They were trying to stop him.

 

don't don't don't don't don't

 Jumbled thoughts coming to a close, screaming a single word, begging the monster to stop running.

One leg swung over the rails.

'one down, one to go,' the figure thought.

 

The bright light was calling out to him, pulling him into the ⱱǾɨƉ.

 

"Sans!"

Yelling, why were they yelling? How did they notice? He was so sure they wouldn't notice him gone.

 

Frantic eyelights were moving left and right, left and right.

'quick. i have to be quick.'

 

The breathing got louder. The rattling got stronger. 

He wanted it all to end. He leaned to the right, a small movement that cost everything.

 

The footsteps got louder, louder, ḹȪȔḏɇꝚ. A rush of air ran through his bones. He felt alive. He felt real.

 

The footsteps stopped at the door.

 

 

But he was gone.

 

White light burst through the room. The only thing that could be heard was Dr. Gaster's screams, calling out for ᵴⱥȠᶊ.

 

It was over.
