The child stood up, rubbing the back of their head. They were in a patch of flowers.
Wha-? I just fell down, right?
They frowned, searching their mind for memories, only finding none.
The human child shrugged, brushing dirt from their striped sweater as they stood up and headed forward.
Soon, the child came across a clearing. It was empty, except for a hunched figure, mumbling to itself.
Suddenly, it turned around. "Howdy! I'm-"
"Asriel!" The child stared, astonished. Memories flooded in their head, but they disappeared as soon as they came.
"How..? How do you know my name..?" Light shone on the figure. It was a battered flower.
"Your-Your name?" The child asked, confused.
"Yeah, my real name. Asriel."
"I didn't say that. I didn't say anything..."
"But you..." The flower sighed. "Ah, nevermind. Now that you're here, I'll introduce myself. I'm Flowey. Flowey the flower!"
"Oh... I'm..." The child frowned. "Actually, I don't think I have a name."
"Oh well that's too bad." Flowey suddenly stiffened. "WAIT WHAT AM I DOING? I'm really sorry, human." Flowey said, shooting an apologetic glance at the child. "But I have to take your soul in order to get my revenge on Toriel."
Flowey's face contorted, his friendly smile turning into a malicious grin. "I'm really sorry, human." He repeated. "But I must kill you."
Small white pellets surrounded the child as their soul jumped out.
"Die."
The pellets closed in on the child who raised their arms in a hopeless defense. "N-No! Please... don't do this Flowey... you're nice, not mean..." The child crumpled on their knees, curling up in a tiny ball.
A look of regret flashed on Flowey's face, and he faltered. Just when the pellets were about to close in completely on the child, the fell down and disappeared.
The child looked up, relief shining in their eyes.
"I just can't do it!" Flowey wailed. "I-I just can't kill!"
"That's okay, Flowey." The child stood up. "I can help you." The child hugged Flowey, who was whimpering.
"Well, well. Lookie what we have here?"
The child whirled around. Vines sprouted from the ground where Flowey stood.
"St-Stay away now..." Flowey's gaze sparked with fear. "You-You won't like what's coming..."
The newcomer was wearing a ragged, black dress with a red symbol on it. Her goat like appearance was battered and weary, but her amber eyes shined with menace.
Her gaze drifted towards the child, then they softened with mock sympathy. "Oh look, a human child."
"You better come to my house." She said, ignoring the growls Flowey was shooting at her. "It's at the edge of the ruins. Oh, don't worry," she added, "I won't hurt you. There's pie at my house too if you would like some. Now, be a good child, will you? I have business to attend to..." She shot a glare at Flowey.
"By the way... I'm Toriel... caretaker of the ruins."
Toriel turned back, her eyes glinting, and walked deeper into the ruins.
"Y-You can't trust her! She's evil!" Flowey cried out as soon as Toriel was out of earshot. "She's the most feared one in the ruins," Flowey continued, lowering his tone. "All the monsters fear her! This is an obvious trap, you idiot!"
The child's eyes glimmered with sadness. Flowey's voice softened. "I mean...you can if you want to but... I just wanna keep you safe, human."
"W-what?" The child shook themself, confused. For a moment they had remembered, but then it had slipped their grasp again.
Dang it! The child thought, frustrated. I was so close!
"I'm sorry Flowey, but I have to fine out what she's up to!" The child said, their eyes glinting with determination.
"Okay..." Flowey sighed. "I still think you're an idiot though. It was nice meeting you, human..."
"What do you mean?" The child asked, surprised. "Your coming with me!"
"What?!" The child took out a flower pot filled with soil and scooped Flowey into it.
"Okay that's settled." The human picked up the flower pot with Flowey inside.
"Let's go!"
