Don't Take Her Hand…
"What's your name? Why don't we call you Ashton…. You are a bit dusty from killing so many people in the last world you were in, after all. Oh. That's your actual name. Eh, whatever. Point is, you're a killer, but, you seemed to choose who you wanted to kill. Why is that? Why only take pity on a few monsters, even though they legitimately wanted to kill you, over and over? ….You must be a masochist or something. Anyways, I see how you're looking at me in confusion. You think you know me, but I'm not who you think I am, am I? You want to find him, right? Find the one you're being so incorruptible, filled with RELIABILITY? To fulfill a promise you refuse to break? You got spunk, kid, but, let's see how you do in this world…."
A young woman, maybe around twenty, was falling down a deep, dark hole, unconscious, until she landed with a thud onto a bed of yellow flowers. She woke up, and groaned softly, then opened her eyes, looking up at the faint light coming through what looked like a pin hole of an entrance…. How the hell did she survive? It doesn't matter. What DOES matter, is that she's alive, and she needs to find a way out of here. Up wasn't an option, she didn't have the body or equipment for that….
She sighed, then winced as she got onto her feet, and shakily stood. Even though she had no signs of harm, her body ached as if she was violently attacked, stabbed, shot, and any other wound type imaginable. She must have hit her head hard or something….
The young woman caught a hint of light out of the corner of her eye, and looked over, and saw a patch of grass with a single flower, but, it looked odd, like it didn't belong there…. Curiosity be damned, she went over to it, curious. Suddenly, the flower showed its face, wide, black and shiny eyes piercing into her own, with an equally unnerving smile to match. "Well, howdy! I'm Flowey, Flowey the Flower! Hmm…. You're new to the underground, aren'tcha? Golly, you must be so confused." Admittedly, the young woman was, and was wondering if she was suffering from a concussion or something right now. "Someone ought to teach you how things work around here! I guess little old me will have to do. Ready? Here we go!"
Suddenly, a lavender colored heart left their chest, and landing in an odd square that hovered between them, like a window. Something felt wrong, REALLY wrong…. "See that heart? That's your SOUL, The very culmination of your being!" The young woman paled, feeling a sort of anxiety kick in, feeling a grim sense of déjà vu hit her. "Oh? Look at how big your heart is! You must have a lot of LV! What's LV stand for? Why, LOVE of course!" The young woman saw that her LV was 20, and thought it was pretty weird. Was she loved dearly before she fell? If she was…. Why did she fall into this place? "You want more LOVE, don't you? Don't worry, I'll share some with you!" Um, that was a bit creepy, but okay, and it didn't help that Flowey winked at her, too. "Down here, LOVE is shared through…. Little white…. 'Friendliness Pellets.' Are you ready? Move your SOUL around, catch as many as you can!" Suddenly, the 'friendliness pellets' came after her SOUL, and despite her better judgement, she ran her soul into them, and suffered crippling pain in her chest, making her crash to the ground, gasping. She saw what her HP was, and saw that she only had 1 HP left. The flower soon had a malicious grin on his face, and then spoke in a cruel tone. "You idiot. In this world, it's kill, or BE killed~! Why would ANYONE pass up an opportunity like this?!" Then, a ring of the pellets surrounded her soul, and Flowey smiled, before speaking condescendingly, "DIE," before laughing demonically as the pellets floated closer and closer to her soul, until they disappeared, and her health bar was full again, naturally confusing the young woman and the flower, until he flew off, having been struck with a magical white flame. Fucking demon weed.
"What a terrible creature, torturing such a poor, innocent youth…." The young woman saw a large, humanoid goat creature came forth, bearing a motherly expression and tone. Why did this female seem so familiar…. Yet not to the young woman? As if her worries were all too clear, the creature looked at her kindly, and harmlessly assured, "Ah, do not be afraid, my child. I am Toriel, caretaker of the RUINS. I pass through this place every day to see if anyone has fallen down. Though, you're the third one to fall down here in a short while! Come! I will guide you through the catacombs, this way." Toriel then lead the way through an archway, and into a long corridor, with scattered red leaves in a rectangle, then a pile of those same leaves between two stairways, but in front of the pile was a little glowing light. The young woman, on impulse, touched it, and heard echoes in her mind, a voice familiar and dear to her, "The shadow of the RUINS looms above, filling me with DETERMINATION." Huh…. Odd. 'HP restored.' That's comforting. Nothing beats being alive and well.
Meanwhile, a small boy and a young child were on their way to a town called Snowdin. The boy wanted be brave for his new friend, but being in a new place full of potential danger made him anxious. But the small friend was confident, and held his hand comfortingly.
So far, the boy named Ian was at LV 2, while the child, who hasn't spoken a word was at LV 1 still. They wouldn't harm a fly, but Ian killed a few monsters out of fear and self-defense for him and his friend. The Loox were unrelenting, so could you blame him? So far, the two children were friends with Toriel, Sans, and Papyrus, but Ian was a bit suspicious of Sans, and he was a bit weirded out by Papyrus's cooking technique. He also felt a little sad that Toriel closed the door on them after they left, but…. He also missed home, too, missing his family and pets, though, he missed his sister the most, despite the fight they had before he left, and ended up in the underground. The child nudged him out of his thoughts, giving him a gentle smile, and began leading them toward Waterfall.
A/N: Thank you all for checking out this fanfiction, and I hope you all enjoyed! But, I'm open to reviews and critiques, as long as they are constructive. Also, I intend on making this story a slow burn, for the most part. Certain situations will happen, involving some naughtiness outside of a relationship, plus other things. The next chapter will be tagged appropriately, as I'll begin introducing the three main aus, played by each human, plus, I may add a few cameos for something very interesting, as well. Also, if you'd like to request a oneshot of sorts, feel free to ask, but I have the right to say no to certain themes and situations. I may enjoy kinky shit, and some taboo-like shit, but I don't cross certain lines. Also, if I do not know the characters or plot, I will have to decline.
