A/N: This is my first (published) fanfiction. In the later parts, it involves the Dreemur-Reborn AU, kinda. I got some of the ideas in this from other fanfictions. And definitely SPOILER WARNING ALERT!

I stood at the edge of the pit, contemplating my options. Do I want to kill myself, or live a life of misery? It was an easy choice to make, when I thought about it. So I took a step into the gaping black hole.

I fell. And fell. And fell. I lost track of time as I was consumed by the darkness, until I finally hit the bottom.

…Why am I still alive? I thought. I couldn't feel my legs at all, and I only felt pain in the rest of my body. I slowly opened my eyes.

I was laying on a bed of yellow flowers, crushed from cushioning my fall. I was surprised I could see, even once I looked up. A beam of light shone from a hole in the ceiling. It looked really close, much closer than I thought it was when I fell.

I looked down at my body. My legs were bent in unnatural shapes, and I couldn't move my arms. Well, I got my wish. I get to die soon. If not from my injuries, I'll die of thirst. Oddly enough, I accepted my death perfectly calmly. Sure, I was only thirteen, but I knew about death, and I made the choice willingly. I just thought I would die on impact.

I shut my eyes and hoped it would be the last time.


I woke up to somebody carrying me. I started to feel my legs again, and the pain made me groan.

"Oh! Are you alright, my child?" said the person I assumed was carrying me. Her voice was soft, and sounded like a mother's would.

I opened my eyes to see what looked like an anthropomorphic goat. She (was it a she?) was the one who was carrying me.

Now, I know most of you would have thought to get a more surprised reaction from me when I learned that was happening, but I simply laughed and said "Huh, so monsters are real…" Now, you see, my grandpa used to visit me a lot when I was younger and tell me stories. My favorite one was the Great War. My grandpa was only a child when it happened, but he remembered it clearly. Though, I don't remember why I went to a mountain said to hold monsters to do suicide, but… actually, now that I think about it, it kinda makes sense. Maybe I thought that the monsters would kill me? So, anyways, back to the story.

"… You are very odd, child. All other children tried to run away in fear after seeing me, but you are different. You and the last child."

"Last child? You mean you've met other humans before? Odd." I said. "Welp, I think I'm going back to sleep. It's too *Yawn* exhausting to stay awake."

And I fell asleep. I can fall asleep literally anywhere, and I mean anywhere. Sleeping is an art, and I am one of the best at it.


I woke up, very comfortable. So, here's the things that went inside my head the moment upon waking up. First, I am so comfortable. Second, I am so hot. Third, OH MY GOD I'M NOT HURTING!

I shot up out of the very, very comfortable bed, waking up the goat monster who was sleeping in a chair next to the bed.

"My child, you're awake again! Now, listen, before you get up, there are some really important things I need to show you." And then she pulled out a hand mirror. A hand mirror? What is she doing?

She held the mirror in front of my face, and I couldn't believe what I saw. In the mirror, instead of my human face, was the face of a monster. It looked very similar to the goat monster, with a white muzzle and giant, fluffy ears. I backed against the back of the bed in surprise, noticing my torso. It was covered in fluffy, white fur, like the goat monster's. My hands were also covered, with my nails now claws, and for some reason, I didn't have a pinky finger anymore.

I looked to the goat monster and asked, "What happened to me?"

"I-I don't know. I was looking after you once I brought you here, but I fell asleep. When I woke up, you were like this."

"When was this?"

"About a day ago, I think."

"Wait, a day? How long have I been asleep?"

"About three days." It took me a few seconds to process all the information I was getting. So, after I fell down the hole, this goat monster found me and carried me to…wherever I am, and I somehow became a monster… What kind of mushrooms did I eat?

Honestly, that was what I thought. I did eat some mushrooms in the forest before I attempted *Ahem* suicide. I knew that a lot of mushrooms were poisonous, but I was about to commit suicide, so sue me.

"My child? Are you alright?" Miss Goat Monster asked.

"Uhhh… yeah, just thinking. I'm alright. Well, as alright as I can be when I turned into a monster for no apparent reason."

"I have a feeling that means no."

"Yeah… Um, can I get up?"

"Oh! I'll get out of your way."

She got out of the way, and I pulled my legs out of the covers and attempted to get to walk. "Attempted" being the key word here. When I pushed myself off of the bed, I fell forward, onto the goat monster. I didn't even push that hard.

She managed to catch me as I fell though, and I pushed myself off of her. With a "sorry", I actually stood up. I felt so… light. It was like I was carrying fifty pounds of extra weight for my entire life, and I got rid of it instantly.

"Whoa, I feel so light now!" I exclaimed. Then I turned to the goat monster. "Wait, do you have a name? I mean, I haven't actually addressed you personally, and I need to be able to call you something."

"Oh! I'm sorry for not introducing myself earlier. My name is Toriel, and I'm the caretaker of the RUINS."

"It's alright. I mean, it's kind of hard to introduce yourself to someone who was turned into a monster and is in shock." I replied. "My name is…wait…"

At this moment, I realized. I couldn't remember my own name.

"I-I can't remember my name… I can't remember my name… My name, what is it? My name, my name, my name, my name…" I kept muttering "my name", hoping it would somehow make me remember. Honestly, I was more freaked out by forgetting my name than turning into a monster. It was always my greatest fear, to forget myself. I was fine with becoming a monster, because I wanted my human life to end, and I guess my mind subconsciously thought that becoming a monster ended my human life… It's hard to explain exactly.

I started crying at some point, because Toriel hugged me and snapped me out of my stupor, making me notice the rivers of tears flowing down my face. Honestly, I'm surprised that the water wasn't hindered by the fur at all.

I closed my eyes, and I fell asleep for the fourth time today.
