Chapter 2: Clovey the clover
I have chosen: C) look down to see how deep the fall is.
.
Towki took some careful steps forward and laid on her stomach once she got close to the edge of the opening. Just to be safe, she patted the dirt around her until she found a big heavy rock and dropped it inside and waited.
It felt like forever before she heard the rock hit the ground.
"Only thirty three seconds long," she told herself, "where can I find something that can hold my weight?"
She stood up and looked around the woods to find something that can make her landing safe until she found a lose tree branch.
"That might do."
She walked to the tree and pulled on the branch until she was sure it will not break while she was using it.
"Okay, here goes nothing."
Towki took a deep breath, looked down the opening and climbed down with the branch on her hands. It seemed like it was going well until she heard a snap. Next thing she knew, she was falling.
"This was a bad idea!" she screamed until she landed on her left side of her body. She groaned in pain for two seconds before she saw the charm glow blue and float in front of Towki's face.
"Towki?" Frisk's voice echoed from the charm.
"Frisk, I did it. I'm in."
"Are you okay, sis?"
"The fall only hurt my left arm but I guess the clovers broke the complete fall."
"Clovers? But I landed on yellow flowers."
"I don't see any flowers at all, Frisk. Only clovers."
A rustling sound interrupted Towki's attention from the charm.
"Towki, I need you to get up. Now." Frisk's echoing voice sounded frantic.
"Why?"
"Get up!"
She did as she was told but it seemed like it was too late for her to shake off some dirt, leaves and twigs. Someone burst out of the ground. It seemed like a giant three leaved clover with a cheerful smiling face.
"Greetings, I'm Clovey! Clovey the clover..." Clovey's cheerful face disappeared into a frown, "No, this isn't right. I was never a clover at first. This is not right. I'm scared... and I don't know why. You have to make everything go back to normal."
"I think the glitch got to Flowey. But he can still be dangerous. Towki, stay away from him." Frisk echoed.
"Look, I'm too scared to fight. I just want everything to go back to where it was. Even when I was a flower. That malfunction has ruined everything. Everything."
"I don't know what to do now, Frisk. What should I do?" Towki asked with her tone full of confusion.
Before Frisk could say a word, Clovey interrupted before disappearing back into the ground. "You have to help the others remember who they really are, Towki."
"Stay alert, Towki. What used to be Flowey is really unpredictable. Whatever you do, do not let him intimidate you." Frisk echoed.
"Frisk, Clovey seemed like he was scared. No, terrified. I don't think he will want to harm me."
"That's what he wants, sis. He will make you underestimate him. Just keep your head up." Frisk's echoing voice faded back into the charm until it stopped glowing and landed back on Towki's chest.
"Just keep my head up. Stay alert. I can do that." Towki told herself before she made her way through the ruins.
This is... this is amazing. All these bizarre sights, they're so... awesome. I wonder why no one dares to step foot in here, this place looks so adventurous, Towki thought.
Every direction seemed like they were begging to be admired by the thirteen year old pre-teen, and she couldn't help herself but to move her head around to catch a glimpse of every single piece of matter that laid in the ruins.
Later she realized her distraction got the best of her after she collided against someone who felt taller than her and... bony.
"Human, your kind is not welcome here," said a tall skeleton who seemed to be fully protected from damage by navy blue armor, "As the head of the royal guard, I command you to turn around and go back to where you came from, or dare to keep going and I shall take you as my prisoner to our head royalty, King Asgore. Don't take it personal, human, it's just business."
Towki froze on her tracks, unable to move or react. The charm began to glow once again, but it didn't float this time.
"Don't be afraid, Towki. It's only Papyrus." Frisk echoed.
