It's Frisk POV of what has been happening after the barrier was broken. She lives with Toriel, close by Sans and Papyrus's house. Shes been dealing with many night terrors or nightmares and she seems to think about the past more than she should. She always took care of herself, but what if she finally got to tell people (or monsters) her problems and got help?

Chapter 1: Dancing Stars

What is that? You moved closer to the figure that silhouetted in front of you. It turned around, but you couldn't describe what you saw. You didn't even know who it was, but you wanted to help and you got closer.

"F-Frisk..? T-There you are!...Will you help me..?" That voice...was very familiar, it made you shiver in terror. You knew who it was...Asriel... You stepped back, but you still wanted to help, but that name made you feel like you didn't try to SAVE him. As soon as you figured out who it was, he spoke again. "Frisk..help me.. Why didn't you SAVE me Frisk? Don't you want to help me!" His eyes began to bleed darkness. You stepped back more, but he moved with you. "Why won't you help me!" His paw grabbed your shoulder and he began to shake you violently. "HELP ME! SAVE ME!" He screamed louder. You started to cry in terror. Why didn't you SAVE him? You had to get out of here now! You turned around to see another face, one you hated and hoped to never see again. Chara..

"Watch you back, don't ask questions or you might hear something you wish you never heard..." Chara disappeared before you could say anything. You started hearing whispers of failure. You're going insane..You need to get out!

You woke up in sweat..eww... You were never happy about this when it happened, but it happened a lot. You had another nightmare, great. You got up out of bed, still frighted from your dream. You put on your warm shoes. They felt cozy and hot, even if you were sweaty you didn't seem to care. You grabbed you jacket, just in case it would be cold when you got outside. You decided not to wake Toriel, shes been busy with school and other things and she needed the sleep. You walked down the hallway quietly and went out the door. This wasn't the first time you snuck out of the house, at first Toriel was so worried she couldn't find you so she got your whole (new) monster family to look for you until you found yourself at home. You usually when down to the lake and then fall asleep, so if they really needed you and you weren't there, they would find you at the lake.

Walking outside made you remember it wouldn't be summer much longer. The temperature dropped a lot at night now, but you didn't complain, the chill helped with your sweaty skin, so you decided to wrap the jacket around your wast. You kept walking until you found yourself at the lake. You sat down and looked up at the sky. The stars were so beautiful tonight. Why did you have to have another nightmare? You sighed, thinking about your dream, but shook the thought out of your mind. You looked out into the beautiful night sky and the lake. The stars were dancing in the water. You thought of how fun it would be to go skating with your family with winter.

"hey, kiddo.." You turned to see Sans looking down at you. You smiled at him and motioned him to sit by you. "i thought i would find you here, is everything ok?" You shrugged at him. Maybe you should tell him about what happened, after all, Sans was the only monster that knew about you. He was always there for you, but you knew he was mad for what you and...Chara did. "do you want to talk about it?"

"I had another nightmare.. I wish it didn't have to happen tonight, I don't want to disturb the stars. They seem...peaceful." You looked down at you hands. You were shaking a little bit, for what reason, you didn't know.

"thats ok, kiddo. i get them all the time. no need to stress about it, but you shouldnt sneak out at night, ya know?" You stared at him for a moment, thinking.

"Well, I didn't want to wake mom, shes been really stressed and she needed the sleep. I know not to worry about the dreams, but they are so...realistic and I can't seem to get the thought out of my mind.." You looked down and you zoned out for a moment.

"well kid, you dreams must be very terrifying. what are they about?" Sans wondered out load. You looked at him. I think I should tell him, right? He would understand, he always does..but I don't want him to worry either, he always carries so much stress, I don't know how he handles it..

"I don't want to worry you..I.." You stopped

"kid, its ok, you need to get it off you chest, i know its burdens you a lot, just get it off your mind, ill be here for ya."

"It was a-about um..Asriel and..Chara..." You hated that name, but now it not the time to zone out. "A-Asriel kept asking me to SAVE him.. His face was..was s-so broken..a-and t-then..." You were started to remember the dream. Tears were starting to flood your eyes, but you wouldn't allow it. Not here, not ever.."T-Then I turned to run away, but when I looked around I saw...I saw...Chara..." Sans stared at you, but you didn't dare look up at him. He was in full serious mode and you wished he would be for this conversation. He always listened more and came up with good ideas and always knew the right thing to say. "She s-said.." You paused trying to get the exact words from her mouth, "Watch your back, don't ask questions or you might hear something you wish you never heard.." Gosh..did I just say that?! Why did I just say that!? You started to panic, you hands started shaking more. Sans seemed to take notice, but you still hadn't looked up at him.

"kid, this is really serious. why didnt you tell me before?" He grabbed your hand and squeezed it tightly. His hand was very cold and thick. Though, you'd expect that since he was a skeleton. "we got your back kid, you can tell us anything." But you couldn't. None of the other monsters know about you and whos dust you've spilled. You never wanted to have this conversation. You always did everything by yourself, even before you climbed Mt. Ebott. You never relied on anyone else before. Suck it up, Frisk, you thought, your almost a teenager, you can't be acting like this. It was true, you were almost 13. No one in your family knows when your birthday is and how old you are and you aren't going to tell them about it soon, or ever if you had it your way.

"I should be the one apologizing, Sans. Everyone wastes their time on me, and I don't deserve it, not one bit of it." You sounded bitter, but it was true. You had very little self-confidence, but it's still plummeting more and more now that you were starting puberty, so that wasn't helping at all.

"kid, even if you can't talk to the others, you can always talk to me. im here to listen to you right now and whenever you need it, too." That made you feel a little better, though, you were not fully healed, knowing that Sans would help you though this was very comforting though. You leaned on him, showing your thanks. You started watching the stars in the river dance for about 45 minutes before Sans looked at you "we should get back now, we dont want to scared everyone if we both fall asleep. if you want we can leave a note at toriels sayin' were at my house." You smiled at Sans, as you grabbed his and started off to Toriel's house.

"I would love that, Sans..."

Authors note: I would like to think that Frisk is a girl, please not hate on my opinion, and in doing so, I will not hate your opinion if you think Frisk is a boy or no gender at all. Whatever makes you happy!
