Chapter Text
You sigh dramatically as your oldest sibling gives you a look.
“Grimm looks disappointed. What did you do in the 30 minutes it took you to go get cookie dough?” She asked. You give her a blank stare.
“They had decided it would have been a wonderful Idea to swing their bag at someone walking the same way as us. However, they did it because they thought they would get mugged.” You tilt your head at the scathing look your sister gives you. You shrug.
“You know how valuable Grimm is. Nothing is taking him from me.” You carefully take the Bitty into your hands and hold him close to your chest. “Grimm is my child. I'd end the world for him!” Grimm’s tails swish in irritation at being held so close to your soul. The magic fur tickles your wrist and you pull the fox away from your chest.
“I hope that man doesn't press charges.” Your sister tells you. You go pale.
“Oh.”

Red grumbles and curses under his breath as he walks away from the human. You gave him a vibe he didn't want to place a finger on. At all. Never.
He has to chuckle though at the surprising strength behind that swing. He rubs at his chest where the bag had hit him. He walks up to the door of the house his brother and he had chosen. The human wasn't wrong when they had said Red and his other versions had nabbed four houses. There was an old Train stop at the end of the street and the city had decided to start building houses on the street. Sans was able to place their names down for four of the houses. The street was near the base of the mountain. They wanted to be close to the mountain in case something happened. The ambassadors hoped nothing bad came out of it.
“Brother?” Red glances up to see Edge walking up from the driveway. “What Are You Doing Standing Out Here?” Rough worry stretches over his face as he walks to stand next to red.
“One of the humans that live at the end of the street whacked me with their Backpack. Im fine just knocked me on my ass.” Edge tenced and looked Red over. He felt the quick check wash over him before Edge Sighed in relief.
“Why Did The Little Human feel the need to hit you?” Edge walks up to the door and unlocks it. He holds the door open for Red to walk through.
“They had thought I was going to Mug them,” Red says while walking into the house. Blue was in the entryway and looked up alarmed.
“What?” Blue sets down the box he is holding and walks over to Red. Edge walks in and closes the door, locking the bolt in the process.
“Red got hit with a backpack on his way home. One of the humans that live at that Old train station.” Edge motions in the direction of the station.
“Thought I was going to mug em. They had a bitty so I'm not surprised. Most bitty owners are super protective of their Bitty’s.” Red shrugs. “And this area isn't the best of places to live. The human might have just been protecting themselves from a proceed threat. Nothing too major. Didn't even hurt me.” Blue checked Red quickly and nodded.
“Your Hope is at a normal level for you. Glad you're okay.” Blue turns away from Red and picks the box up again.
“Whatcha got there Blue?” Red looks into the box. It's full of different Halloween Decorations.
“An older gentleman brought them over earlier today. I'm going to put them in the Attaic for Halloween this year. It is almost October.” Red nods while Edge gives a hum.
“That human holiday? The one about treats and Tricks.” Edge takes his jacket off and hangs it in the closet by the door.
“It's a lot more than just Treats and Tricks,” Blue says. “There’s a portion about honoring the dead.” The brothers look at each other with sad looks.
“You're going to focus on that?” Red asks. Blue nods and starts to walk towards the stairs.
“I want those who sacrificed themselves to be honored,” Blue says. A young Teen walks into the hallway.
“Halloween has a lot of different meanings to different cultures.” the human pats Blue on the back and walks over to Red to hug him. “Rover and I can explain a bit more about it if you’d like?”
“Hey, Kiddo.” Red hugs the Human back.
“So you ran into Y/N?” Logan asks amused. Red rolls his eyelights.
“They hit me.”
“Yeah. Not surprised. They are Suuuper protective over their Bitties. I've talked to their Sisters. They seem like a nice Family.” Logan backs up and gives a respectful nod to Edge. The taller monster nods back.
“OH! Are you talking about the Train Family??” Rover bounds around the corner, nearly running into Blue.
“No running, Rover. Everyone let Red and Edge into the house, please? They just got back.” The two kids backed away and out of the hallway into the dining room. “The table is set and food is almost done,” Blue says. “Papyrus made the dinner tonight.” Edge sighs and walks to the kitchen while Red walks into the dining room. Frisk is joking with Rover and Logan about something from school.
“Have all three of you talked to our neighbors?” Red asks. Frisk shrugs.
“Most of us have. Little Pup hasn't cause Colt and Silver dont want her out of the house without one of them, but yeah. Most of us have met the sisters. Y/N just got back from college so we haven't had the time to meet them yet.” Frisk says then smirks. “From what we've heard, they are pretty nice.” Red rolls his eyes. Stretch walks into the room with a sick in his mouth. Most likely a sucker.
“Yeah, nice. They hit me with a bag.” Red says. The kids giggle.
“Sounds like your relationship hit it off with a bang.” Logan wiggles his eyebrows. Red narrows his eyes.
“Brat.”
“Hey, Red. How was work?” Stretch asks sitting down at the table. Red sighs.
“Some lady yelled at me for not giving her a discount.”
“Oof.” Rover laughs. “Karen?”
“How did you know er name?” Red turns to the Child. The three kid’s eyes go wide.
“No way! Her name was Karen?” Frisk burst out laughing. Rover covers her mouth and giggles while Logan fishes at Red. “That. Was a. Haha. Joke. Was the lady's name really Karen?” Frisk tries to stop laughing.
“I’m missing something.” Red points at the three kids.
“Our gens humor. Dont worry.” Red glances at Strech who shrugs. Blue comes back from upstairs with Sans behind him.
“Heard the news. How ya holding on Red?” Red flips Sans off.
“Peachy. Can we stop talking about me getting hit?” Red huffs and sits down near the kids. Frisk snickers.
“When you tell us how the first date goes,” Sans says sitting next to Frisk. Blue rolls his eyes with a shake of his head. He turns and walks into the kitchen.
“Can we please stop joking about Red’s love life? I do not need to hear about it.” Edge says walking into the room. He looks disturbed.
“Yes, please can we drop it and eat?” Red groans into his hands. Blue and Papyrus walk into the dining room with a pot and a couple of bowls.
“Lets eat!” Blue cheers.
