WHAT LIES BENEATH

The first time he fell his pak was damaged beyond repair. The second

time he was pinned under water unable to scream as he melted away. The

third time he wasn't fast enough and the small man made of bones killed

him over and over and over again. He lost more and more of himself with

each death until finally he was no more.

'It happened again' he thought as he sat up on a bed of yellow flowers.

Groaning he gently touched the damaged lump of metal on his back.

Something was wrong he couldn't remember how he had gotten here. He

definitely remembered falling but everything before that was fuzzy. He

was supposed to do something. Something important. What was it? Growling

in frustration he marched through the cave. If he kept walking long

enough he would run into someone eventually.

After wandering around for a while he did find someone. "Howdy!"

well kind of. "I'm Flowey." His antennae twitched as he carefully

examined the creature in front of him. It was a golden flower, almost

exactly like the ones he woke up in earlier, with a face in the center.

He growled and held his head when his pak began to spark. "Golly Zim,

you don't look so good." How did it know his name? Had they met

before? The more he questioned it the worse his pak sparked. He could

feel himself /melting, his bones were breaking, again and again and

Again And AGAIN ANDAGAIN ITHURTSPLEASEMAKEITSTOP!"Don't

worry," Zim tried to ignore the pain and focus on what Flowey was

saying but everything just. /Hurt. So. Damn. Much. "I'll make

all the pain go away."
