"Amiya! Amiya, wake up!"
The older girl stirred, groaning softly as she woke up. "Emily? What's wrong?"
"We fell."
Those two words made Amiya jolt up, wincing at a slight pain in her back. Looking at Emily, she then raised her gaze and looked around. They were at the bottom of a large cavern, in a bed of yellow flowers. Emily was standing over Amiya, hugging her teddy bear tight.
"Are you okay?" Amiya asked, slowly standing up.
"Uh huh. Snowymallow is too. But I broke one of my wings..." Emily answered, looking up at her sister.
Amiya looked down at the costume wings, noticing one was badly bent. "It's alright, it's just bent. We can fix it later." After gazing up at the faraway hole they had fallen into she knelt down and picked Emily up, wincing in pain when she felt a twinge of protest from her back. "It's too high to climb out..."
"There's a door that way." Emily says, pointing. Amyia looked in the direction she pointed as she reached down, picking up a toy wand her sister had dropped. Half hidden in the darkness, she could see a hallway leading toward the door. "... Are we stuck here?"
"No, we're not." Amiya assured her. "Mom and dad will find us soon, I promise. I have an idea, why don't we sit here for a while and wait?"
"Okay..."
Amiya sat down, snuggling Emily into her lap as she gazed up back at the hole. After a time, Emily fell asleep in her lap.
Amiya wasn't sure how long she had sat in the bed of flowers when she heard the sound of footsteps coming closer, echoing down the hallway. She slowly stood, holding Emily closer with one arm as she stared at the door, gripping the toy tightly with her free hand. As she watched, a giant... Goat-like humanoid thing wearing a robe walked through the door, carrying a watering can. They stopped when they spotted Amiya, looking at the two in surprise.
"Oh dear..."
"What are you?" Amiya asked uneasily.
"I am a monster. My name is Toriel, I am the caretaker of the Ruins. How long have you been sitting here?" She asked.
"... I'm not sure." Amiya answered uneasily, still gripping the wand tight. There was such a thing as monsters?
Toriel gazed up at the hole the two had fallen down through, noticing that there was not much light coming through it. "It seems to be getting late on the surface..." She murmured, then looked back at the two humans. "My home lies at the end of the Ruins. Would you like to stay there for the night?"
Amiya looked up at the hole, thinking it over before sighing. It was getting late, and their parents wouldn't be able to see the hole in the dark... Tucking the handle of the wand through a loop on her jeans, she used her now-free hand to gently shake Emily awake. "Emily?"
Emily stirred, tiredly blinking awake. "Mama come?"
"No, not yet. But we're going to go somewhere to spend the night, then we'll come back in the morning. That way they could see us." Amiya answered as Emily rubbed her eyes. She put the younger girl down, who steadied herself as she clung tightly to Snowymallow.
Spotting Toriel, Emily's eyes widened as she grabbed Amiya's hand. "What's that?"
"This is Toriel, she's... a friend." Amiya answered. "She's letting us stay at her house for the night."
"Follow me, I shall guide you through the Ruins." Toriel says to them, then reentered the doorway.
Holding onto Emily's hand to keep her close by, Amyia followed the monster through. They entered a dark room that had a green patch in the center of the room. Amiya glanced around as they followed Toriel to another door, but there was nothing notable about the room other than the faint sunlight beaming onto the patch of grass, and the top of the cavern being much closer than it had been in the other room.
After Toriel led them through the other doorway, Amiya looked around in amazement. The ceiling was still quite low, and lanterns hung from the rock above them, casting a gentle flickering glow as the fire flit about inside them. The group was walking to two white staircases, leading up toward a stone entrance that still looked majestic despite the fact it was crumbling a bit.
"Pretty!" Emily says excitedly.
Toriel glanced down at the six-year-old, smiling faintly as she led the two humans up the stairs. "Thank you, little one. Welcome to the Ruins."
