Hello, everyone!
I hope everyone is having an awesome spring break!
And as you can clearly see what my new obsession is hehe.
Well, let's get on with the story!
My whole body pulsed as trembles of pain shot through my body like a lightning rod. My vision began to fade as I stared up into the sky grabbing onto nearby rocks tightening my grip as if it was supposed to keep me grounded. Even as the summer sun still towered in the sky I shivered feeling colder than I ever had. A tear fell down my face as a sharp pain once more shot through my body.
'I failed again' I thought, tears falling like a waterfall, 'I didn't make it to the top this time'. It got darker and darker with each passing second and before I fell back into the abyss I could have sworn a figure was towering over me. 'I'm sorry Sans. I broke our promise' and the last thing I heard was the sound of laughter.
'Nighty Nighty Frisk'

I gasped awake I was breathing hard and my body ached so much it felt like I had run a marathon just a day before. I wiped the sweat from my brow as I looked over at my clock to see the time.
It was 1:45 AM. It wasn't unusual for me to wake up at this hour, ever since I left the underground I been having one nightmare after another. They were always different but had the same plot. Death.
Sometimes it was about me dying in the most horrible and cruel ways or sometimes it was about me killing every monster in the underground. It hurts my heart to think that in my dream I had killed so many people, even the people I held so dearly to my heart.
But lately, I have been having the same dream over and over. Being surrounded by darkness, feeling pain I had never imagined, and feeling as if someone was watching me as I suffered. I could almost feel their amusement on some nights.
Getting out of bed and into my own personal bathroom, Toriel thought it best that I have my bathroom when we moved to the surface. Since she and Asgore had so much fur she wanted me to have my own bathroom since I didn't shed as much and didn't have to clean the bathroom as much as they had too.
Going on autopilot I instinctively went to my nightly routine of watching my face then grabbing drinking a bit of water from the sink. I used to go downstairs to get water but I always ended waking one or the two and after doing it so many nights in a row they started to get worried so I thought it best to start drinking from the sink so I wouldn't bother them.
After drinking a bit of water I placed the cup gently on the sink as I looked at myself in the mirror as I do every night. And every night I get the same results, 'Despite it all it's still me' I thought to myself though I don't know why. It seems that I expect there to be someone else looking back at me in the mirror, someone that I really don't want to see, though I don't know who nor do I ever want to find out.
I observed myself in the mirror as if to find some difference in my appearance but nothing. I'm a lot older now than I was after leaving the underground, I have the same round face and squinty eyes, my hair was slightly touching my shoulder, and I am a bit taller now. Though still short for the average 16-year-old.
I sighed as I went to bed grabbing my laptop and earphones on the way there. I knew that I wasn't going to get any sleep tonight I started to watch the anime's Alphys wanted me to watch.
~Next Morning~
Hearing the alarm go off I swiftly reached over to turn it off sighing sadly, 'I was on the best part!' I thought to look longingly at my computer screen but I knew I was going to get in trouble if Toriel saw me using it at this time. Getting up to start my day I calmly got ready even though it was the beginning of summer vacation Toriel and Asgore thought it was important for a family to have breakfast together.
That's because even though it was summer vacation they wanted to leave the school open for a daycare, summer camp, and summer school. I thought that was a little much for them to do all at once but Toriel was always determined. But luckily monsters and a few curious humans, who wondered what it would be like to teach monsters will be there to help them. Giggling at my inside joke once I had on my favorite striped blue and purple shirt, with a pair of MTT brand blue Jeans, and black sneakers I went downstairs.
"Well good morning my child. How did you sleep" Toriel asked once I entered the kitchen, wearing a long-sleeved purple shirt and a dark blue skirt that went up to her ankles. She didn't wear shoes since it seemed they bother her feet. "Good. Morning Mom" I lied, I never grew out of being quiet so everyone is used to me being quiet and nonchalant and short answers though I wish I wasn't like that. But I guess you can say it's my security blanket no one can tell if anything is bothering me so it doesn't make me look weak. "Go ahead dear the food is already on the table. I'll be there in a moment to bring the raspberry pie" I nodded walking to the dining room to see Asgore waiting patiently drinking tea wearing a blue shirt with yellow flowers and a pair of grey shorts with no shoes on.

"Good morning young one," Asgore said smiling lovingly. I smiled back, "Good morning Dad," I said softly grabbing the tea packet and make some tea for myself. I found that most human children thought it strange that I would drink tea since it was uncommon for them to drink tea. "All done I hope you weren't waiting long," Toriel says as she enters the room looking apologetic. "Nonsense dear come and let us eat," Asgore says while I shake my head to show that it was alright.
We had a peaceful breakfast just the three of us though I found myself distracted as my mind continuously went to the dream from last night. "You alright dear" Toriel asked a bit concerned. "I'm fine. Just tired" I said smiling trying to cover up the distress I was feeling. "If your sure" Toriel says going back to her meal. 'I can never tell her' I thought sadly, 'I can never tell anyone. They'll probably think the worst of me and think there is something wrong with me.'
After breakfast, I went to say goodbye to them, "Where are you going dear?" Toriel asked, "Oh that's right you're going to hang out with your friends today" Toriel stated as she warmly gave me a sweet bear hug. "Well be careful dear," Asgore says as he sits reading the paper in his large armchair in the living room. "Okay goodbye!" I waved as I walked out the door.
Today I am going to be hanging out with Papyrus and Undyne at her new gym she created. Undyne is a trainer there who humans acknowledged to be very strong that many people all over the world who are famous and otherwise come to her to train so they could get stronger. But Undyne's training was no joke as many would quite half way through because of how painful her training was.
She likes to give Papyrus and I free lessons and for us, it was a lot of fun since sometimes she likes to put it in a form of a game of sorts for us. And since Alphys and she are together she likes to tweak the gym up a bit so nothing can get broken since Undyne is so strong.
My face as I knew who else was going to be there as well as a skeleton wearing a blue sweater came to mind.
