Chapter 3: Venturing the Ruins

Oh dear, where has that flower moved on to? Also, where has Ms. Toriel gone? Is she at her house? Hmm, you better get her a call. You took out the phone from one of the clothing pockets and...oh her phone number is here, so you dialed the number and waited for her call.

"Hello there, it be Toriel you speaking to. I ain't answerin' the phone cause I'm busy as a bee right, do leave a voice mail and have a wonderful day", the voice over from the phone said.

Yup that's her alright, you left a simple and short message than hung up the phone. Okay self, what to do now? Do you go and look for the little cute flower or do you find Ms. Toriel and her house?...You think finding shelter is the wise thing to do! And who knows, you could run into the flower again. Now you ventured on alone through this dim place filled with strange plants and creatures, whatever happens you must press on. You can do this, you are a big kid now! Heheheh, saying that fills you with that same thing you felt before and you don't know what it can be. Excitement?...maybe? You'll use that for now. Feeling like a big kid, fills you with EXCITEMENT!

"Meoooww", you hear.

Uh-uh oh, it's those little frog cat...things again.

"Meow?", it said tilting it's head looking curious then jumping up to you.

Oh no not again, the same thing from before. Black and white area, glowing red heart, and- huh? There's a box in front of you, it says words: FIGHT, ACT, ITEMS, and MERCY. You don't want to fight the one little creature, you don't have any items but the phone and paper, and mercy leads to sparing and fleeting which you could not do. You pressed the ACT button and more options appeared. Compliment? Let's try it! You tell the creature named Froggit that they are a very nice and sweet thing, they started to blush when you told them that. Awww~. You compliment it some more and little by little they walk to you with a curious look on its face. You gently lead your hand to it and it moved its' head to your hand, you gently pet it. They were very pleased by your warm hands and purred, it made you happy that found a happy creature like this one. Something pop in front of you, the MERCY button again. You press the button and chose to spare the little guy. After 3 minutes of petting it decided it wanted to go, you kindly stopped petting and said your goodbye. You were right what the creatures being misunderstood or maybe scared, so for now on you will show them kindness through out your journey. Huh, what or who is that over there? It looks a lot like...A GHOST, with mouse ears! Oh my oh my, you've never seen a ghost before. You calmly walk up to the ghost that was sleeping on a pile of leaves and examined it. You wonder if you could touch it, but you really don't want to wake it up and at the same time want to be rude. Oh what to do?

"Mmmmm", the ghost mouse said waking up, "*Long yawn*...Oo?", it said looking around then seeing you.

The two of you just looked at one another waiting for something to happen. You tried to say something to it, but it slowly went back to sleep...umm. Oh now it's sleep walking, you carefully followed the ghost to see where it might go. Hopefully not through any walls. You two traveled pretty far and did your best not to let anybody wake them up, really tough challenge. Now they've stopped over a small pile of red leaves, they're just floating in their sleep. You walked up to it and won-AAAAAAAAAAAAHHH! OOF! AH, you fell through a trap that was under the leaves. And super lucky these leaves below you cushioned your fall, thank goodness. You got up and and dusted the leaves off you when your eyes catches hold of something across on the room you were in. It's a ribbon, that you are...pull to. You gently picked it up...nothing happened, but you can feel something. Something...calm, gentle, and peaceful, you decide to keep it from now.

"Oooo, it was you", you hear someone say.

You got back to your senses and turned around, it was the ghost mouse again.

"It wasn't nice waking someone up from their nap you know", the ghost said calmly.

You strongly apologized for waking them up and said you didn't mean too, you feel pretty bad now.

"Ooo...don't be sad, I...I don't like...sad things *sniff* *sniff*", the ghost said tearing up.

Oh no the poor thing is crying. There, there, there please don't cry. Oh no it's still crying...iiit's crying too much, the place is flooding. You begged them to stop crying as nice as you can.

"I-I-I c-c-caaaann't!", the ghost cried huge amount of tears.

Oh no, OH NO- AAAAHHH! YOU'RE BEING WASHED AWAY BY POOLS OF TEARS OUT THE DOORWAY!...*LONG GASP* pfft pfft pfft, where-where are you?!...*gasp* you have to calm down, the more you panic the more you'll have a tough time floating. Okay...okay, just look for help. Wait...you hear...something, something singing. You did you're best to turn around and see them.

"TTRRRRAAAAAA llllalala lalalalala lalala lala lalalalalala~!", you hear them sing with joy.

You quickly waved your hand and called for their help, they noticed you and moved you're way.

"Wwwhhhyyy hello hello hello, I am riverman or am I riverwoman!", they said with complete glee, "Would you care to join me on my coat?", it...asked.

Uuuuh...you don't bother questioning the name and agreed to join them on their boat. Yyyyooouu pulled yourself out the water and...on to the empty side of the boat, *SIGH*! As you were calming down and catching your breath, you saw the ghost mouse still teared up only a little and sitting on the leaves before, it was floating away.

"*sniff* I wish I didn't cry so much *sniff*", it said floating away on the leaves.

(HAPPY HOLIDAYS~!)
