* ...isk...
* ...Frisk...wake up...
* You wake up with a jolt. You're in a place you don't recognize. You are immediately cold.
* A voice calls out your name. It seems much more distant than it was a moment ago.
* You stand up, realizing you're covered in snow. When you look around you, all you can see is white.
* "...Frisk..."
* You run towards the voice. It continues to call to you.
* You see figures in the distance. You smile as you recognize the silhouettes.
* I'm here, I'm here!
* "Oh, my dear child! Are you alright? You look so cold!"
* A furry monster hands you a coat and scarf. You gratefully put them on.
* A snowball hits you. The kind monster suddenly disappears.
"HUMAN! I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, CHALLENGE YOU TO A SNOWBALL FIGHT! I SHALL THOROUGHLY JAPE YOU AS I-"
* A thrown snowball knocks the skeleton over.
* "Come ON Papyrus! You can do better than that!"
* The skeleton stands back up, his face filled with mock anger. He throws a snowball at you.
* You feel your soul become blue. You're forcefully moved to the side. The monster next to you gets hit instead.
* "careful kid! don't want tori to hand my butt on a silver platter, now do we?"
* The skeleton who saved you winks at you. When you turn back, the taller skeleton and the (fish?) monster is glaring at you.
* You are filled with determination.
* You throw snowballs at the others for a long time. Eventually, a dinosaur-like monster shows up with a book. She appears to be reading as you play.
* You collapse on the snow with exhaustion, a large smile plastered on your face. You giggle and close your eyes for a brief moment.
* When you open them back up, your smile fades. The sky seems much darker now.
* You stand up and look around you. The snow is much dirtier now. Your heart beats faster.
* The monster who kindly gave you the coat and scarf was looking at you in fear.
* "My child...why...?
* You blink.
* She's gone. Only a pile of dust is left.
* Toriel. Mom.
* The tall skeleton, who just a moment ago was calculating how to hit you with snow, was looking at you with fear.
"...WHY...?"
* You blink.
* He's gone. Only a pile of dust is left.
* Papyrus.
* The snow has completely melted.
* The monster with fins has armor on. Only just a moment ago, she seemed happy to be spending time with you. Now she looks at you with fear.
* "...Why...?"
* You blink away tears.
* She's gone. Only a pile of dust is left.
* Undyne.
* You look around for anyone else, not daring to blink. You could only see another pile of dust and a lab coat near it.
* Alphys.
* "...why...?"
* You spin around. The smaller skeleton is clutching his brother's red and tattered scarf. He's sobbing into it.
* "...you..."
* He slowly looks up at you. One of his eyes is glowing blue. He's furious.
* You didn't mean to.
* You feel tears streaming down your face as the skeleton drops the scarf. He staggers towards you.
* "on days like these, kids like you..."
* Don't blink.
* "Should be burning in hell."
* Don't blink.
* A swarm of bones is thrown towards you. You scream.
* You closed your eyes, waiting for death.
* It doesn't come.
* Hesitantly, you opened your eyes.
* He's gone. Only a pile of dust is left.
* Sans.
* You see a monster who looks similar to your mom in the distance. You see him fade into dust.
* Asgore.
* You see a small child in a green striped shirt plucking petals from a golden flower. It seemed to whimper in fear. The child looks just like you.
* They look at you with a sickening smile. They disappear, leaving the flower to die.

* You are crying uncontrollably now.
* You didn't mean to.
* You didn't mean to.
You meant to.
* You feel a knife being pressed against your neck.
Whose fault might this be?
* Voices. You hear voices of your friends all around you.
* "Why?"
* "Frisk, why?"
* "Why did you kill us Frisk?"
* "Why are we dust Frisk?"
* "Why Frisk? Why?"
* You felt your sins crawling on your back.
* You scream out for help. You struggle, and cry, and scream out for help.
But nobody came.
Why do you need them...when you have me?
* The knife penetrates your soul. You feel it shatter into pieces.
* You jolt awake. You're in a cold sweat. You're hyperventilating. You jump out of the bed and run to your mom's room.
* Mom! Mom!
* "What...what child?! What's wrong?!"
* You say nothing. You just climb into her bed and sob into her fur. She's alive, thank god.
* "There, there, everything's alright. It wasn't real."
* You wanted to believe her. Why would you do something so horrible? If this was another timeline, you don't remember it.
* And yet...
* "Come Frisk, let's go get some water."
* You take your hand and you follow her, just like you did when you were younger.
* Toriel takes out a cup and pours some water from the pitcher. You sit at the table. Your eyes wander to the pile of mail from earlier today.
* You spot a flyer for a nearby college. You pick it up and analyze the words to get your mind off of Chara.
* ...Who's Chara?
* Maybe you should start thinking about college.
My first fanfic in a while! It's nice to be back :)
Feedback is WELCOME! I'm not sure how to write these characters yet, so advice is welcome! I think I can get away with it here, since it's mostly a dream sequence...but later on, I'll need all the help I can get.
In the meantime, thank you for reading! The next prompt is "Complicated"! :)
