This idea was inspired by a fellow Guest who enjoys my stories. This is basically Depressink, but with some minor changes if The Fun Gang is involved.
Unfortunately, Jevil will not be in this story. but because I love him so much, he's gonna be mentioned numerous times :D.
Anyway, here's the first chapter that takes place an actual day after Deltarune. Even though Depressink takes weeks after from my previous stories, this is just for the sake of an alternate universe.
Enjoy! :)
*scene: the Dreemurr's house, Hometown*
"Kris! Are you ready yet? We don't want to be late!" Toriel called out from the entrance to the house. It was a day since that actual events happened in the Dark World. And for Kris, it was a great day for him today.
While being in the Dark World yesterday while trying to find chalk, he had recently became Susie's friend after he was on his way to seal the fountain that has recently erupted. And Susie asked Kris to come back there tomorrow. And today was the day.
But in the Dark World, Kris, Susie and Ralsei were once transported to Inkopolis, where they made many friends, enemies, and just straight up having a good time. So that's why Kris felt like going back to that exact city again today.
Kris walked downstairs, wearing the clothes that Redd bought him at Inkopolis Square: the King Flip Mesh on his head, the Squid Squad Band tee, and White Seahorses. Toriel raised an eyebrow at the clothing that Kris had on.
"Where did you get those kinds of clothing, my child? They look interesting to say the least." The female goat asked. Kris held up his pointer finger, then pulled out his smartphone.
He searched in something, much to Toriel's curiosity. When Kris was done, he showed the image to his mother. Toriel looked at the image. It was a picture of Deca Tower, along with some passerby Inklings in the background.
Below the image, it said "Inkopolis Square". Toriel seemed very confused, since she never knew that place.
"Inkopolis Square? Never been there. Maybe we should go visit there sometime when we get the chance." Toriel suggested. Kris grinned widely, then nods. Toriel giggles at Kris's excited behavior, and then pats him on the head.
"Anyway, let's go. We'll still be on time if we make it now." She said, and then walks out the door, with Kris following her.
Toriel keeps on walking, up to the red car that was used as transportation to the school, and many other places. She walked up to the driver's seat, and Kris sat on the other side of the front. Or as anyone says, "riding shotgun".
Toriel starts the car, hearing the engine rumble. She reverses up a bit, and then puts the mode to driving. And now they're off, driving slowly, but not too slow so they don't get left behind.
"So, Kris. Are you excited to see Asriel when he comes home?" Toriel asked. Kris nods, a smile on his face.
"Hee hee hee, I'm happy to hear that. I'm excited to see him too," Toriel giggled, "But still... I do wonder if he'll be happy to come back here since he was having an amazing time at university. I guess we'll ask him when he comes back home."
And so, the rest of the ride was peaceful, and they waved at many passerby people that were outside today.
After a couple more minutes of this slow ride, Toriel parks the car near the front of the school. The two walk out, and Toriel walks over to her teenage child, and holds his hand. Kris didn't budge one bit.
The school was quiet and peaceful as ever. As the part where there were many paths in the school, the two stopped.
"Have a good day, my child. I love you." Toriel said, and then gives Kris a big hug. Kris gently hugged back, before Toriel lets go. She walks to her side of the class: the class for the little ones. Kris walks to the other class on the opposite side, which is the one for the people in his grade.
Before Kris opens the door to his class, he heard a voice.
"Hey. Kris." The voice called out. Kris recognized immediately. He turned around, and he saw none other than Susie.
Kris slightly smiled once he saw her.
"I bet you remember our little talk yesterday. Didn't you?" Susie asked. Kris looked down slightly and twiddled his fingers, still keeping the smile on. Susie scowled at the quietness.
But instead of flipping out on him like the last time, she just smirks.
"Whatever. I'm sure you remember anyway." Susie said. Kris looked at Susie and nods.
"Anyway, let's get to class. They have to know that we'll be leaving for a while." The reptilian monster responded, and Kris just opens the door and follows ahead, and Susie follows right behind the human.
*location: Room 20X* (get the reference)
Everyone was here today. Miss Alphys was in front of the teacher desk, looking at the students here today. Berdly was looking at Noelle with a wide smirk, with Noelle slightly looking away from the nerd.
Jockington was behind Catti as usual, looking at her phone. The snake, being nosy, looks to see what Catti was doing on it. When Catti looks at Jockington, the snake slithers back to his desk.
Monster Kid and Snowy were sitting on their desks, waiting for the day to start.
And Temmie was on her desk as well, with the hard-boiled egg on it.
Kris and Susie walked in, much to Alphys's surprise.
"Oh! Kris! Susie! Y-You two actually... m-made it on time." The yellow lizard stammered, surprised by this occasion.
"Yeah." Susie replied bluntly. To make sure that Alphys still knows Susie the way she is (and the other students as well), she smirks evilly at Kris. Kris just shuddered at it, but it was a little forced.
"Well, take a seat. Because class is about to begin." Alphys instructed. Kris nods, and walks to the desk in the middle, with Susie sitting at the desk behind him.
"Hey, Kris. Do you need any tips on the group project? Cause I know you missed it." Noelle asked kindly. Kris reached into his backpack, and pulled out his notebook. Noelle whispered into Kris's ear to whisper some things about the project.
Kris dotted down everything that he remembered from the talk.
"Heh heh. Kris, just because you're late doesn't mean you need the help from other people. I could've gave you other tips." Berdly said. Kris looked at Berdly, confused.
"That is, if you pay your monthly debt! I know for a fact that Noelle and I will have the best project!" The blue jay teased. Kris rolled his eyes, very annoyed at that.
"KRISP! awa... Tem sOrz you nO mAKe id bac. tem suport u! UWU!1!" Temmie exclaimed, looking cute. Kris silently giggles.
"Yeah, Kris! I agree with Temmie! You need help, we'll give you some pointers!" Monster Kid complimented, "By the way, nice looks! It really suits you!"
Kris just nodded at the compliment, and then did the sign language of "thank you".
"But that outfit really suits you. It looks really hip, like at some party. Maybe one outfit from a music band, and you got yourself a n-ICE look!" Snowy joked. Kris just stared at Snowy, thanks to the small joke.
"You don't get it? It's a joke! Eh, whatever. Some people find them old anyway." Snowy groaned.
"Yo, Kris! I like, totally agree, that outfit looks, so cool!" Jockington complimented. Kris grinned and shows Jockington a thumbs up.
"Maybe you, can show me, where you got it, so I can, try it out!" The snake insisted. Kris slowly nods. The human looks over at Catti, who was busy on her phone.
Catti clicks and taps it a couple times before slightly looking at Kris.
"Looks good." Catti said. Kris smiles at that.
"Hey, Kris. Don't mean to ruin the moment, but... heh, time to pay attention." Susie remarked. Kris was slightly surprised that Susie would say that. Especially considering that Susie doesn't really like school.
I guess the Dark World and Inkopolis really has impacted the both of them lately.
"Good morning, class!" Alphys greeted.
"Good morning, Miss Alphys." The class greeted back (except Kris since he can't really talk).
"Has anyone got any progress on the group project lately?" Alphys asked.
"Yeah. You could say that." Berdly replied smugly.
"A little bit, but not too much." Monster Kid said.
"I'd say, so too!" Jockington added.
"But I'll excuse Kris and Susie since they didn't do it yet." Alphys said. Susie just scoffed, but Kris nods in understanding.
"Anyway, let's get started for today." Alphys said happily, and then walks up to the chalkboard. But she sighs, seeing what happened.
"O-Okay... w-who took the chalk this time?" She asked, kinda nervous, but also kinda annoyed, "This is the fourth time. I might have to ask s-security about it soon."
Susie tapped Kris on the shoulder, and he looks back. Susie opens her pocket, and shows the stick of chalk, then winks. Kris got surprised, knowing about Susie's plan.
The purple dino slightly raised her hand.
"Miss Alphys," She spoke a little louder than usual, "Kris and I can go to the supply closet and get some. We've done it before, but couldn't find any. But I have some hope on it this time."
"A-Are you sure, Susie? Y-You've been gone for the whole day last time." Alphys asked, unsure, but also nervously. Kris put his hand near Susie, and nodded, agreeing with Susie on it.
"O-Okay, you too. Go ahead." Alphys responded. The two nod, and they leave the classroom.
After a long walk in the hallway, the two were near the closet. Susie grabbed the chalk, and eats it in one bite. Kris glared at Susie.
"I was hungry, okay?" She exclaimed. Kris just slightly shook his head, and then opens the door. He offers to let Susie go inside first, which Susie accepted.
She goes inside, and then Kris does. Susie reaches to the door, and forcefully closes it. Kris braced himself, knowing what is gonna happen next.
The two see the papers under them shaking.
"Here we go, Kris. Meet ya there." Susie teased, and then received an eye roll from Kris. The papers go down, and the two fall into the bottomless abyss that is known as the Dark World.
*scene: Castle Town*
"Ho ho ho! That's what you think you got, Toothpaste Boy! But I, LANCER, won't allow anymore pies to be taken!" A voice cackled. What is shown is Lancer, on his flaming bike, doing a ton of wheelies. Next to him were 5 pies, each a different flavor.
In front of him was Ralsei, who looked unamused.
"Why are you still calling me that." The prince sighed.
"Why not? This is just the start of something amazing! Now, keep at it!" Lancer commanded. Ralsei sighed, and then quickly runs over to an apple pie, then runs back. Lancer tried to get back at him, but failed.
"Oof! New record! But you know you gotta try it!" Lancer teased.
"I don't know how you came up with this, but okay." Ralsei said. He takes a small bite of the apple pie, and just smiles since he likes the taste.
Lancer grabs a pumpkin pie, and starts devouring it.
"Geez, Lancer. Slow down. You'll get stomach problems." Ralsei warned.
"Sorry, Toothpaste Boy! I can't hear you over the sound of the pumpkin pie hitting my face!" Lancer yelled. Ralsei just sighed, but managed to keep a smile on.
Upon Lancer finishing the pie, Kris and Susie arrive, with their Dark World traits. But Kris still had the clothing he had on from earlier.
"Susie! Blue person!" Lancer cheered.
"Lancer, hey! It's been a while!" Susie said with an excited smile.
"Kris! Susie! I'm so happy to see you again! It's been since we defeated Jevil, and imprisoned the King!" Ralsei exclaimed. Kris grinned.
"Anyway, I came back with Kris to come back here again and visit you two. What are you to doing?" Susie asked.
"A game I made up called 3.14!" Lancer replied, "It's a multiplayer game! One person runs to take a pie, but another will try to stop them! If they fail, the other person tries, and vice versa! If one person succeeds, then the person who took the pie will have to eat it. And the person who tries to stop the one person will have to pick one of an assortment of pies! They gotta finish it all!"
"That's... interesting." Susie said, but a tone of confusion was there.
"Yeah. But there's no way I'll be able to do this. I can't eat this many pies. Even if I love treats." Ralsei sighed.
"What were you two planning to do?" Lancer asked. Kris held up the same image of Deca Tower on his phone. Ralsei recognized it immediately.
"That's the tower in Inkopolis Square! Yeah, Kris! We should go there!" The prince of dark yelled excitedly. Kris silently squeals. Susie smirked. Even if she did want to just visit the Dark World, Inkopolis Square was a good bet as well.
"Lead the way, Kris." The purple dino insisted. Kris nods, and then walks out of the castle. Susie walks behind him, and Ralsei follow behind the reptile monster. Lancer just waves at them until they aren't seen anymore.
Once the Fun Gang were gone, the spade boy mischievously smirks.
"More pies for me! Ho ho ho!" Lancer laughed, and then started devouring one pie at a time.
*3 minutes later*
*scene: unknown place, Card Castle*
The Fun Gang walk down the long staircase, just like before. This was the place where they encountered Jevil, before Switch took them to Inkopolis Square.
Jevil's circus wasn't there anymore, just like before.
"So, what do we do now? Jevil isn't here anymore." Ralsei asked. Kris smirked, and then steps a little closer to the pitch black abyss below.
Suddenly, a red light formed around them, and Switch appeared. He seemed surprised that this guy came back.
"What?" The mysterious guy greeted bluntly. Kris pulled up his phone, and shows the god the image of Deca Tower.
"Huh? You want to go back... to Inkopolis Square?" Switch asked. Kris nodded in agreement.
"Hmm. You know what, that's fine," Switch responded, "In fact, one of the squids you might know has a situation that both of us know too well. Maybe you guys can... heh heh, help him out."
"Sure! We'll help out the best we can!" Ralsei cheered.
"Just take us to the d**n place already." Susie said with a smirk.
"Very well then. It's all yours." Switch replied, and then...
Click!
Switch snaps his 2 parts together, and the Fun Gang were teleported.
But what situation could Switch be talking about?
*scene: Inkopolis Square*
The Fun Gang land in the middle of Inkopolis Square. But this time, they all landed on their feet.
"Well, guys? Ready for a brand new adventure?" Ralsei asked.
"Hell yeah." Susie exclaimed, and Kris nods in agreement.
And so, their repeated adventure in Inkopolis Square has begun.
Author's Note: And the prologue is done, and this one takes place the same time as the first chapter of Depressink :D. Thank you, Guest, for suggesting the idea. I'll try to finish this one quick before going back to my other stories and work on them ;).
Anyway, Stay Fresh, and let the power of the Fun Gang shine within you! :p
