CHAPTER ONE
Frisk woke up in a strange cavern with a bed of yellow flowers, and looked around. Frisk vaguely remembered something like this before… But they couldn't have been here before, could they? Frisk tentatively walked forward. There was an arch leading to another room. They entered it cautiously.
"Howdy! I'm Flowey! Flowey the flower!" A golden flower smiled. "You must be new to the underground!" It grinned. Something about the way Flowey smiled made Frisk nervous. "In here, we share LV! What is LV? Why, LOVE, of course, using 'friendliness pellets'! Move around! Get as many as you can!"
Frisk frowned. Something seemed off… They looked at their red 'soul', floating in front of them. The little white 'friendliness pellets' were coming closer. Nervously, and out of curiosity, they touched one. It smashed into their soul. "Ugh!" They gasped as they watched their HP drop to one.
"YOU IDIOT. IN THIS WORLD, ITS KILL OR BE KILLED." Flowey snarled, forming a ring of white bullets around them. Frisk looked around in fear as the bullets advanced, They could hear Flowey's haunting laugh as the bullets closed in…Terrified and hopeless, they called out for help.
Suddenly a bright flame shot out and threw Flowey across the cavern. Suddenly, a gentle voice like bells said, "Hello, my child." A goat-like monster appeared from the shadows. "I am Toriel, caretaker of the Ruins." Frisk watched numbly as Toriel pressed down four buttons on the floor.
Could they trust Toriel as they did with Flowey, just to get backstabbed (…literally) or was Toriel a good creature? Frisk's deep thoughts were broken by a reassuring voice, "My child are you okay? you seem a little flustered," Toriel asked "Anyways, the next room awaits". Frisk followed Toriel into the next room, "There is another puzzle in this room, I wonder if you can-" Toriel's face lost its calm look and turned into one of pure shock and horror, the child had collapsed, lying limp on the floor with beads of sweat forming on their face.
Chara? Where are you? I'm scared… What's happening to me? Chara…? Chara!
Asriel…. It's going to be okay. It's all part of the plan.
CHARA! I don't… I don't…
Frisk shuddered and woke. They looked around. They were in a room with a slice of butterscotch-cinnamon pie on the floor. They picked it up and put it in their pocket, saving it for later. They walked out of the room. There was a warm light coming out of the… dining room? They entered and saw Toriel, who was reading a book called "72 USES FOR SNAILS'. Frisk frowned. Snails… It seemed familiar, for some reason.
Toriel looked up and gasped. "My child! Are you okay now? When I saw you on the floor… I truly feared the worst." She said sadly. "I do not want to lose another child." Frisk smiled. "I'm okay now," Frisk whispered softly as they fiddled with a faded ribbon that they had found on the floor and put it on.
"Why don't you take a walk around the yard? You didn't really get a chance to look around before you collapsed." Toriel asked.
"Okay!" Frisk exclaimed, running out the door. They wandered around, looking at the Spider Bake Sale and talking to the Froggits. Then they saw a doorway they hadn't been through yet. Frisk walked in and saw something glinting in the light.
Curiously, Frisk walked over and picked it up. It felt plastic, but the edge was still quite sharp. They examined it and realised it was a Toy Knife. They gripped it tightly and put it in their pocket. Their hands curled around it instinctively. It was like they had used it before, or something like it.
Chara…? What's that in your hand?
It's a knife.
Huh, Chara? A knife? Isn't that dangerous? Anyway, I don't like this idea anymore…
. . . . .! Asriel…
Okay. But…
Asriel…!
Oh… I understand…
Frisk jolted awake. They frowned. What was that? They thought. Already the memory was fading. They wondered whether they should head back to Toriel now. Already it felt like home. They decided to start walking back, but they would definitely buy a spider donut along the way. Frisk had found bits and pieces of gold while they were talking to the Froggits.
They put 7g in the web, smiling as the spiders crawled down, holding a donut. "Thanks," They murmured. One last thing, they said to themselves. Frisk skipped towards the pedestal which had a sign that said 'Please Take One,' and took a piece of Monster Candy. "Yay! Candy!" They exclaimed happily as they skipped back to Toriel's tidy house at the end of the ruins.
"My child, you really shouldn't stay out for so long, you had me worried!" Frisk looked at the old clock on the wall near them and turned back to face Toriel "Oh, was there something you wanted?" Toriel asked
"When can I go home?" Frisk asked uneasily looking down at their feet, they didn't want to upset Toriel.
"Wait here I have to do something," Toriel said, and walked away.
Frisk wondered what Toriel could possibly need to do that was so urgent. They looked at the clock. After fifteen minutes Toriel still wasn't back yet. Finally Frisk decided to go look for Toriel. They checked the kitchen and the bedrooms but she wasn't there. The only place she could be was down the stairs to somewhere.
Frisk walked down the stairs. Their hand unconsciously slid down into their pockets and she grasped the Toy Knife. Her other hand gently rubbed against the Monster Candy. "Toriel?" They said. Toriel's back faced towards them, and she did not turn as Frisk approached her. "I am going to destroy the exit to the Ruins. No human will ever leave again. Go upstairs, my child."
She walked further down the corridor and out of sight. Frisk, more determined than ever, followed her. "Toriel?" They murmured.
"Why are you doing this? Go upstairs, my child. If you leave, ASGORE will kill you. I am only trying to protect you."
Frisk silently shook their head. "Let me pass through," They whispered.
"Well then… Prove to me you are strong enough to survive. Then I shall let you pass." She said quietly. Toriel closed her eyes, breathed deeply, and initiated the 'fight'. Frisk's soul hovered outside her body.
Toriel used fire magic to shoot blazing fireballs at Frisk's soul. They whimpered, desperately dodging the fire. Frisk gazed at Toriel with helpless eyes. Toriel glanced away, avoiding their gaze. She sent another wave of fire attacks at them. Frisk panted and managed to avoid most of the attacks. At the last moment, a small fireball slammed into their soul.
"Urgh!" Frisk cried out in pain. Toriel grimaced but steeled herself against the suffering she was putting Frisk through. Toriel sent another wave of fireballs at Frisk who got hit by all of them but still refused to fight. "Stop looking at me like that," Toriel demanded as another row of fireballs rained down, but all of them avoided Frisk.
Frisk said nothing, just gazing at Toriel with accusing eyes. "I'm doing this to protect you." Toriel argued. More fireballs came spiralling down. "Why are you making this so difficult?" Toriel pleaded. "Just go upstairs."
They kept looking at Toriel, even though their 'HP' was at 2/20. Toriel sighed. "I see. You would just be unhappy here, cooped up against your will. The Ruins are very small once you get to know them. Just this once, I will put aside my fears for you, my child."
The fight ended. Toriel hugged Frisk. "Be good, okay? Please do not get yourself into any difficult situations, my child." She tearfully murmured. "And once you leave the ruins… please do not come back. I hope that you can understand." She stood up and quickly walked away. Frisk looked at the tall, imposing door. Another part of their journey was about to begin.
It filled them with DETERMINATION.
