Author's Note:
This is my first attempt at an Undertale fanfic, I hope I do the fandom justice! Cyrena Crow is my OC :) please ask if you plan to do anything with her
Cyrena Crow doesn't get scared by a lot of things, most things she can take in stride and usually (rarely) ends up problem free afterwards, but there is one thing that terrifies her, that shakes her straight down to the core of her Soul.
New neighbors.
Face pressed firmly against the cool glass she regards the hulking form of a moving van with a heavy sense of dread in the pit of her stomach, she watches and feels the dread growing as it slows down and comes to a rolling stop in front of the house next door to hers.
She nearly faints at the sight.
You're overreacting again. A gruff voice draws her attention away from the horrifying sight just as her cat familiar hops up onto the window sill to peer out at the van himself, the black cat has streaks of white running through his fur and he looks to her with the most deadpan expression she's ever seen, his three eyes narrowed at her expression.
You're acting like someone just told you that you have the Black Plague.
"It feels like it! You know my reputation with neighbors...with people in general, I give them the creeps! And something bad always happens too, remember the last couple who moved in?! I SET THEIR BACK DECK ON FIRE!" She didn't mean to let her voice rise but the panic was setting in and it was making it very hard to control her tone of voice.
By accident. He reminds her, tail tip twitching lazily as he turns his piercing gray eyes to the van.
"Venus I'm scared," She wraps her arms around the feline and is grateful when he starts to purr despite his previous cold attitude.
Smothering her face in his soft pelt she clings to the feline for support.
The sound of loud voices draws her attention back to the van, the driver and passenger had climbed out of the van to start unloading the belongings of her mysterious new neighbors, they haven't even gotten anything out before a mini van rolls up into the driveway.
Her stomach knots up and she squeezes Venus tightly, oh no, mini van means kids, kids mean curious wandering and accidents...lots of accidents.
Great, they have a brat.
Cyrena is so wrapped up in her thoughts she doesn't notice that a child has climbed out of the van, she can barely see the top of their mop of hair and she feels a rush of relief at the sight, one kid is easier to keep safe...good.
Isn't that one of those monsters? Venus is nothing but curious as he watches the driver door open, a tall elegant looking goat has stepped out from behind the wheel, she's dressed in a soft flowing purple dress that stands out nicely against her white fur, from her Cyrena can barely make out two tiny horns atop her head.
The uneasy feeling in her stomach slowly fades to curiosity and she lifts Venus up to her shoulder, he curls up easily there as she moves to the front door and steps out onto the porch, a slight pin prick to her shoulder causes her to pause midstep and she frowns as she looks to the scowling cat.
Its best to stay away Cy, they'll sense your magic.
She frowns and looks towards her new neighbors, hand grasping at the front of her t-shirt, right over her Soul, that's right...the last time she was near a monster they nearly killed her...mistaking her out flux of magic for a Mage...they have every right to hate a human with magic.
"Yeah...you're right," Turning her back to the yard she steps back into the security of her home, unaware of the curious gazes on her back.
I just realized that Venus' speech wasn't in italics and there were a few mistakes Dx I fixed them! I'm so sorry guys
