.::. Author's POV .::.
The skies were bright and warm as two people are enjoying the day out in the gardens. Eve a 20-year-old girl and Frisk an 11-year-old boy were in a place they called home. They created this place after running away from foster care 3 years ago.
They were going to be split apart but, Frisk was shy and rarely spoke to anyone. The only person he really would talk to was his older sister Eve. She was blind and always up at different times of the day. No one really wanted to take her in because of that and her age. So, what other choices did they really have?
Their father left them with their mother at a very young age. Their mother couldn't handle the stress of having two children on her own with these issues and left them in a park to be found a few days later. A few months after they ran away from the foster homes and found each other, they had gotten all the way to the base of Mt. Ebbot. No one dared to follow them because of the rumors about the monsters at Mt. Ebbot. Frisk had found them a place to call home for a while and shelter them.
It was an abandoned house and it looked like no one had been there in ages. It was surrounded by large trees and was hidden. So, they made the hidden section of the house, feel like home. They cleaned it up and fixed some of the damages that they needed to work on to live there. His sister started gardening in the yard and would sell some of the produce on Sunday's at the farmer's market in a small town close by. It didn't make much but, it was something.
On this day, when the sun was shining and things couldn't get any better... This is where the resets would take Frisk. Back to his sister and the home they had created together. He hadn't told Eve about the rests and how it would always bring him back here.
He never told her about the underground and the people that he needed to free or the things he had done to them with Chara's help… He felt he could never tell her about Chara. He looked at her as she was helping him gardening and cleaning off the different kinds of peppers, mint, the various kinds of fruit and vegetables.
Her long brown hair shined in the light and her eyes were closed as she felt around the fruit making sure they weren't bruised. She had a smile that could brighten up a room. She had recently bought them kitchen appliances with the money they had made from the vegetables and received full custody of Frisk since she was old enough to be his guardian now and an old couple from town would come and check on them every so often since they weren't afraid of the rumors. They had also helped Eve become Frisk's guardian.
They had finished picking fruit off a few of the wild *lilikoi bushes around the house. And they were now in a row of tomatoes and harvesting them. Everything was just great so far. Today, he felt the need to do something different. Maybe he would just stay home, and enjoy the time with his sister while he still could? But soon, the words came out of his mouth as if an automatic response, "Hey Eve... I wanna go for a walk." She would always respond the same way with her kind smile, 'Sure, just be back before dinner. I'll need your help to make it.'
But not this time...
"Alright, want me to come with you? The garden will still be here when we come back." She smiled as she placed another tomato into the basket she had after checking if it was bruised or not. He was surprised as she slowly stood up with her walking stick and the basket. She reached out for his hand to lead her out of the garden and into the house to put the produce they had away and into the freezer. He smiled as he thought, 'Maybe it will be different this time.'
He and his sister left to walk through the small forests and found a smooth trail that hadn't been used in a while but, it was much clearer than some of the others so Eve didn't get hit in the face with branches.
As they walked Frisk lost himself in the joy of just being with family this time around. he tagged her, "You're it!" He ran off to hide as she laughed, "Alright, it's on! If I can't find you, which I totally will, I'll say the magic words."
She started looking around with her walking stick carefully as to not accidentally hit him. After a while, she heard the forest becoming eerily quiet around her... She began to worry about where Frisk was, getting a bit lost as she moved forward with her walking stick carefully swinging in front of her. She passed by Frisk worried still, "Where is he..." He chuckled silently until he noticed Eve getting closer and closer to the hole he fell into so many times before. He ran over trying to stop her from falling in. "Eve!"
When she heard her name, she stopped walking and turned around to face her brother with a now relived smile on her face as she sighed softly, "There you a-" She gasped slightly as a force hit her. Before he even realized it, he accidentally pushed her in and she fell...
