Duska

My arms ached as I slowly gained consciousness, my shoulders hurt and felt like they were holding my arms above my head. I slowly opened my eyes but it's incredibly dark so it takes a bit for them to adjust. I tried to move but something held me back from my hands and my neck. Then I try to say something but a piece of cloth is tied around my mouth, it's a gag. I'm wearing... a gag. Where the hell am I!? I look up to see my hands chained together on the wall with thick steel, then I move my head down for my chin to touch metal. I'm wearing a metal collar too!?

"YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO TALK TO THE HUMAN! JUST GIVE THEM THE FOOD AND LEAVE."

"y-yes my lord..."

The door opens to shine light right in my face which forces me to close my eyes and move my head as much as I can to block it out. It slams shut with foot steps coming towards me.

"open your eyes human."

I slowly do, only to see Papyrus yet... different. His teeth are jagged and sharp, his left eye has a small scar on top, his hoodie is ringed with a beige fluff with it's dark brown material, a red collar sits just on his collarbone which doesn't suit the outfit at all. He throws the bowl in his hand to the ground which tips out a piece of bread and half an apple, he yanks the cloth out of my mouth too hard and it makes the collar choke me hard enough to start coughing to gain air.

"shut up, it wasn't even hard. eat it, and don't say a word."

He sharply yanks on the chain holding my hands and it makes it fall into my lap, my coughing stops after another minute but I'm breathing heavily. I feel tears sting my eyes but I hold them back as I hold up the apple, it looks a day old but still edible. I take a bite and slowly eat it as he watches. I notice that my pants are ripped up below the knees and my... Sans' jacket is also torn, it makes my tears fall and I instantly regret it.

"why are you crying!?"

"Ch-Chains... h-hurt..."

If I tell him that it's actually the jacket I'm crying about then he might find pleasure in ripping it into pieces in front of me.

"good, that's the point. now hurry up and eat before my lord comes."

I finish my apple and go to take a bite of the bread until I hear a painful groan from the right of me, it's too far for me to turn my head but I still try.

"d... d-duska..?"

Papyrus. It's the Papyrus that I had fallen into the rip with. My eyes widen and I try moving my head further but the 'evil' Papyrus grabs hold of my head and forces the bread into my mouth, then blocking it and my nose. I quickly chewed and swallowed and he lets go, making me gasp for the air I had been lacking.

"my lord will be here to get you soon, but he doesn't want you two conversing."

I try to move my head away from his hands but he grabs me by the hair and pulls, I yelp which makes a growl come from the corner where my friend sits. He shoves the gag back in place and reties it before swiftly leaving what seems to be the shed beside their house.

"are you alright!?"

I nod and look down on myself again, my hands are still chained but the pain in my arms and shoulders is slowly fading. My head still is stuck in place by the collar on my neck and I can't stand as it must be pinning me to the wall.

"kid, your gonna hurt yourself..."

I try once more to try and get free but it only makes the chains on my wrists dig into my skin. I sigh and go back to just sitting uncomfortably on the rotten wooden floor.

"um... now that... there are more then just me and the papyrus from your universe... how about I have a nickname..?"

He's trying to make me feel better, I try to make a smile and nod which makes him quietly chuckle.

"well... muffet always called sans 'blue'... so how about 'red'?"

I shake my head slightly, not like I can shake it to far to the left and right. 'Red' sounds too violent a name for him, it suits the 'evil' Papyrus more then this one.

"alright then... um... smoker..?"

I let out a quiet giggle, well he's certainly making me feel a bit better. I shake my head again which makes him chuckle and stay quiet for an amount of time.

"how about 'tan'..?"

'Tan'? Seriously? Actually... it kind of suits him. I nod and he chuckles at me, I guess he thought I'd say no.

"i got it from 'tangerine' cause of the orange hoodie, tan's much shorter."

Suddenly the door opens and I look away from the bright light again, quicker footsteps approach me and unlocks the metal collar from my neck. As I rub my neck I try and blink the light away but something is tied around my head, is a blindfold really necessary!? They shove my hands away to be replaced by a sharp feeling from the right side of my neck, along with metal touching my skin again. I hear a click, then the clank of the chains on my hands falling to the floor.

"where are you taking her!?"

"SHE'S MY SLAVE NOW. OH AND DON'T EXPECT ANY FOOD GIVEN TO YOU, YOUR NOT AS IMPORTANT AS A HUMAN SLAVE."

They're going to starve him!? I don't care if i'm a slave! No one should starve to death! I try to say something but as soon as my muffled words come out i'm pushed onto the ground with a heavy foot on my back.

"SHUT UP!! YOU DON'T TALK UNLESS I SAY SO!!"

I quickly nod and pulled back to my feet with magic as tears soak the cloth around my eyes. I hear Tan sigh in relief in his corner just before i'm forcefully pulled by the collar on my neck, don't tell me... I have a leash don't I..?

"HURRY UP!! I'M NOT DRAGGING YOU AROUND ALL DAY!!"

My feet quickly follow out of the wooden cabin and into the snow, I know it's the snow because of the crunching below me and the freezing wind on my exposed skin. I'm yanked to the right just as the slamming of the door is heard behind me, I instantly become worried for Tan but at the moment there's nothing that I can do. It's a short walk to the main house and i'm instantly shoved to the floor again, grunting as my hands absorb most of the impact. I hear another click then footsteps walking away.

"YOU HAVE HANDS!! TAKE THE BLINDFOLD AND GAG OFF."

I involuntarily shake as I do so and my eyes instantly land on the short figure, another Sans. He's the one that's been treating me so... horrible!?

"STOP STARING AND COME HERE!!"

His eye glows red so I dash myself over to him in the kitchen to have a pot shoved into my hands.

"YOU WILL COOK, CLEAN AND DO EVERYTHING I ASK OF YOU. IF I AM HERE AND MY BROTHER ASKS FOR SOMETHING, YOU ASK ME FOR PERMISSION FIRST. IF I AM NOT HERE AND HE ASKS YOU SOMETHING YOU MUST DO IT UNLESS IT DISREGARDS MY ORDERS. I WILL NOT REPEAT MYSELF HUMAN."

I quickly nod and set the pot down, only to be forcefully grabbed around the waist and pulled to the skeleton.

"YOU HAD BETTER LISTEN TO MY EVERY WORD. YOU ARE... SURPRISINGLY ATTRACTIVE FOR A HUMAN."

I feel my face go red as he smirks evilly and release me, so many horrible thoughts run through my head but I try my hardest to ignore them.

"GOOD! NOW DINNER IS IN AN HOUR AND I WANT YOU TO MAKE A MEAL FOR TWO! I WILL PROVISION FOOD FOR YOU TOMORROW."

He goes to walk away but stops, summoning a Gaster Blaster with as red an eye as it's owners.

"AND DONT THINK OF LEAVING, THAT COLLAR WILL PARALYZE YOU UNTIL I RETURN... YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW WHAT PUNISHMENTS I WILL GIVE."

He leaves and a minute later his door upstairs slams shut, everything inside me breaks and I fall to my knees. It's my fault Tan's here!! I could of just teleported the two of us away and... thought of something, anything else!! But now he's... i'm... I just...

"I w-want to go home..."
