Part 9
I Got No Time
Got this entire thing done in one day. Inspiration is steadily coming back.
Jimmy shrinked back into the couch as the large blue spear came dangerously close to slicing half his nose. He had a moment before it fell between his legs and caused a massive tear to form. Toriel quickly grabbed the spear with her hands now covered in a orange flame as she yanked the spear away from Undyne.
"What do you think you're doing!?" She yelled so loud the snow on the roof collapsed to the ground outside.
Undyne had to do a double take at the monster that now held her magic weapon in her grasp.
"Queen Toriel! You're alive?!"
"Yes. And you have 10 seconds to explain why you dare attacked my child." Her motherly voice had darkened to a new tone that surprised even Sans.
He knew her real voice. Even when they talked through a large stone wall. This wasn't that nice, calm women he would visit. Jimmy had to look at who just said those words to make sure he heard what the person said. She was now a force of unbelievable power that was now a whole new level of pissed.
"Your highness?" Undyne raised a brow. "This is a human! The seventh soul that can finally give Asgore the strength to destroy the barrier!"
"And pray tell." Toriel's eyes narrowed. "What did he have to do to get those souls? Kill innocent children while he just sat on his throne as he wait. All when he could of just taken one to gather the others." A lone trear streaked down the side of her cheek. She remembered their faces; the curiosity and kindness each one made her heart glow. But when they left, it dimmed out. And when she knew that they all shared the same fate, she felt herself grow colder. She was Determined to prevent it continuing.
"He did it for the greater good for all of us! He's the one who will punish those who dared trapped us down here. And each soul is one step closer to the end. And he," She points to Jimmy who was now holding tightly to her side.
"Is the last piece. The last human whose death will be our salvation!"
Anyone, that being Sans, could see a inferno light up in the former queen's eye. This where she would end that. "No."
Her voice had now completely lost it's original tone. "I may not be one for violence,"
She takes the spear in her right hand, letting the end hit the ground she focused her fire magic into the weapon. Realising what Toriel was doing Undyne tries to revert it. But the magic of a boss monster of her kind was too much. The blue light shifts to a Sun orange as the head splits apart into now 3 points instead of one.
(Think of a slimmer version of Asgore's battle fork.)
Everyone was baffled. To see a monster overrule another's on their own was rare because it took so much energy to do.
"You." she drops it in both hands. "Monster, Nightmare or anything else will not harm my child."
Undyne stood there in disbelief. Here before her was the original queen of the underground thought to be dead; defending a human that would set them all free. Reaching behind her armour Undyne slowly began summoning another spear. Keeping it small enough so that no one could see.
"Very well your highness. If we can't have him," she clenched it tightly in her hand.
"THEN YOU CAN JOIN HIM!" She pulls out it tried to thrust the blade into the human's chest. Toriel quickly brings hers' down and catches it in the three spikes.
"Jimmy, Run!" She focused a build of magic into the battle fork as a bright flash filled the house. Undyne tried shielding her eyes from the intense light as Sans used his magic to pick the boy up and send him through the door.
The second he was outside he was hit with a massive wave of freezing cold that almost made him trip into the snow drifts. The area was blinding with the snow howling in the wind with the windows of the house that gave off the only nearby light was slowly icing over. He could hear the sound of things crashing that told him he shouldn't be here. Trying to get his eyes see in the dark he tried to stay close to the buildings. Wishing every God he knew that he still had his flashlight. It was literally his only weapon against the animatronics.
"HUMAN!" Undyne tells out. Jimmy looks briefly over his shoulder to see the armoured fish summon a swarm of blue spears. As she goes to through them he watched as both Toriel and Papyrus tackles her to the ground.
"HUNAN, GET AWAY QUICKLY! WE WILL TRY TO TALK TO UNDY!"
Heeding the skeleton's words Jimmy ran out into the blinding snow. Seeing the human escaping Undyne mustered a wave of energy that knocked the two monsters off her. Summoning the wave again she starts firing random bolts into the haze. Hopping that one would land a direct hit. But her progress was halted when a wave of fire flared around her in a large circle. Startled she tried to blast away the fire but is stopped when a wall of bones bolts out if the ground.
Toriel stood before her with her fork held in front of her. Sans stood beside her with his hand held up while Papyrus stood on the opposite side with his bone sword drawn.
"I'm warning you Now. Stand down or-"
*FNaF 3 Screech*
The four monsters all jumped at the sudden noise. Undyne saw that the three lost their focus as she swung a new spear out. Destroying the bones and putting out the fire. The sudden action causes the three to jump back as she unleashed a wave spears at them. Sans was able to easily deflect them to the ground in front of them but some did come close.
Preparing for another Undyne goes to do the attack again. But stops when she sees a small shadow walk by, stop and run away. With her anger boiling she cancels the attack.
"GET BACK HERE AND FACE ME,COWARD!" Undyne tells running after the boy.
But unknown to her and the others; Jimmy was heading the other way from them on the opposite side of town.
With being in the dark a lot his vision did adjust over time to help him see the smallest of disturbance. This did help out when a nightmare would be at the door and he couldn't tell if there was breathing or not.
*FNaF 1 Freddy Laugh*
If Jimmy wasn't frozen before by the snow, he was a literally a statue now. Slowly turning behind him, knowing something's there; he closes his eyes for five seconds before opening them.
In the haze of the snow, a dark figure with its arms stretched to the sides. At first he couldn't tell who it was. Until he looked higher up to see the faint outline of a top hat.
Freddy stood still with his blue eyes breaking through the darkness. The faded outline of his body in the storm made his movement's towards the boy look like a predator approaching. Jimmy could hear the screeches of the little Freddlites; demanding the larger bear to let them loose. Stumbling to his feet he starts to ran as fast as he could. His bare feet stung at each step as his legs threatened to lock up and give away like rusty joints. As fast as he did when he first ran away. Only looking back to see a sign in lights called Grillby's to flicker into nothing as Freddy pasted by. Ducking around a corner the human makes a mad dash towards the visible tree line.
But something made him stop dead in his tracks. When he came up to the tree line, he was dumbfounded to find not a single flake of snow anywhere on the other side. But yet one thing stood out. A old wooden sign about ready to fall over by the slightest of breezes that said ' This Way To Waterfall' and 'Junkyard'. He knew if he stayed here any longer he was sure to die.
But he didn't want leave. Toriel, Sans, and Papyrus. They had helped him in a way he hasn't felt before. Praying that they will be alright he musters whatever energy he still had and ran into the thick of the trees. Staying as close to the path as possible.
Just as he entered the woods Freddy casually walked up to the sign. Running a claw over it before it collapsed into a pile of dust that was gently swept away by the wind. Scanning over the forest Freddy started at every inch of it. Taking in the heavy detail to find what he was looking for.
And he did. A spot in the bushes was early pushed away like someone had walked through. Growling in a low, sutile tone, the three mini bears that occupied his chest cavity jumped out of various holes before dashing across the ground and into the underbrush. Once he no longer saw them, the brown bear himself stepped forward into the bush. Rubbing his claw tips on everything they graze as a black mist washed over the contact point. In moments the mist surges through until whatever was touched now shriveled up into a decayed state.
On the other side of town, Undyne was still running through the snow storm following the direction the shadow had gone. She was a bit confused at how a human, a human CHILD; moved so fast.
Coming up to a road that branched out from Snowdin to several other villages and settlements, Undyne was finally able to clear the snow wall.
"I am going to tear that kid to pieces…" she said as she shook the snow off her armour. Looking up to the roof of the Underground she saw the still presence of light shining down from the surface. She always did want to see what actually made the light cycle each day. Changing from yellows and oranges to whites and blues. A thought in her mind told her she can very soon. And the boy called Jimmy would give her just that. Heading down the main path that would break away to connect to the various areas, she had to focus her one good eye to help see in past the dark forest before her. Scanning the trees as she got closer a strange feeling began to fill her mind. It was that I'd uneasiness; that what she was thinking could be around her.
And something there was.
It was a large black figure that stood in the path. The area behind it was clear of any signs of snow. Not even the winds of the blizzard even touched the trees. But being still night time it was strange to her seeing something dark still be visible. The only off set she could see was two areas of yellow with some parts giving off a reflective shine. It's massive jaw hanged down showing off rows of teeth.
To her it looked like a mutated bear monster, "You there!" She points her spear at the bear. Walking over to it without little worry.
She didn't stop until she was now just four feet away from it, "Have you seen a human come by."
It wasn't much a question but more like a demand. Undyne waited for an answer but got nothing. When she huffed and was about to threaten it a ear screeching scream came roaring from the trees behind her. Undyne had little time to react before a large metal claw clamped around her neck. Dropping the spear as she was lifted in the air her gaze returned to the bear. His blood eyes off set the darkness around them as the monster tried to get loose from the Nightmare's grip.
"AAAGGGH! UNHAND ME YOU-" She didn't finish before the very breath she had disappeared from her lungs. She could feel a massive fist making contact with her armour that went straight to her stomach.
Undyne groaned at the feeling of possibly several bones shattering into dust but the damage didn't affect her soul.
*SNAP*
Looking behind the bear she could see two more creatures of the same kind walk out of the shadows. The first was a purple blue rabbit whose chest was completely spliced open. And the other was what she could tell was a chicken due to the beak. The yellow of its body gave off a strange orange glow.
Looking back she watched as a large black mist began forming in his jaws. It traveled from his inner body up his arm till it started seeping into Undyne's armour.
"HEY! WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!"
**CLANG**
Glancing down she saw what he did. All of her armour had fallen of her body and was melting away on the ground like in a pool of acid. The black puddle bubbles for a moment until it started crawling into Nightmare's exposed parts. Undyne looked at the action in pure shock and what she couldn't believe she had.
Fear.
And Nightmare knew this. He could feel her fear just boiling inside her. Inching deeply he waited for it to come up. What did was a red mist like mass that started to rise above Undyne's heart. Clenching her teeth with enough force to chip one, an unbelievable level of pain raced up from the ends of her limbs into her chest and out into the animatronic.
To her it felt like she was dying when still alive. To Nightmare it was his first taste of what a boss monster would be like.
"What Are The Seven Souls." Nightmare's voice cracked. It was different compared to what he sounded like before. Undyne tried to summon her spears but Nightmare dug his thumb into her throat. Jerking the rusty metal he causes a slash on her blue skin as a trail of blood began to form. He held the blood back with his thumb as she let out a slight gasp.
"NOW." he roared.
She didn't say anything. Growing tired of this he lifts his free hand up before throwing it forward. Not stabbing it with his claw or a punch to knock every ounce of air out of her, his hand fases into her just, right where her heart and soul is.
The monster yelled out in pain as a unholy darkness invaded her. Memories of the past were covered in a blanket of shadow as every moment she was sad, scared or angry all flooded back at once. They stayed there for a few moments before Undyne went limp. Pulling his hand out he let her dropped to the snow in a hard thump. The cut on her neck quickly began to leaking out as the snow turned crimson with a puddle quickly forming where she laid. Nightmare looked behind him where Bonnie and Chica stood. Knowing Freddy was already busy with the child.
"Go. Feast Upon This World." Nightmare's gaze slowly drifted back to the treeline. His eyes focusing on a small red dot that was out of place. Raising his left hand he points to the light,
"KILL."
At the command Bonnie vanished into a cloud of darkness before it went into the forest. Chica turned back towards Snowdin before starting up into a run. She ran until her yellow back vanished into the snow storm.
But one was missing; Foxy.
He was tempted to go and hunt down the fox. Making him suffer for disobeying him. Since the beginning the fox had been the most hardest of the four he had. He did things differently than ordered. While his speed and ability to get actually inside the boy's closet was a great idea, he would never strike. Just sit there with his head out the door watching the boy.
But a thought dragged him away from the fox.
He could feel something. Something new and pure.
Six powerful forms of energy located deep in the underground. Looking off into the distance he took in a deep breath. His eyes widening at the scent of pure power untouched like this world.
He wanted it. And he would stop at nothing to get it.
Glancing back to the red light, his massive jaw dropped before a beam of purple energy exploded into the trees. Once the deed was done he turned back to the direction the energy was coming from. Taking just one step he sinks into the ground of his shadow before it snaked away. Paying no heed to the still active camera watching his departure.
But unknown to anyone, even Nightmare himself, was that a yellow flower was hiding behind the tree where the camera was blasted. Over hearing and watching he waits till they were gone before sinking into the earth.
Over at Undyne's unconscious body a swarm of roots began to sprout from the ground. One wrapping carefully over the cut to stop the bleeding as the others started wrapping her body. They being pulling back into the ground as the soil covered over the monster's body. Leaving nothing but a disturbed patch of dirt.
I got no time
I got no time to live
I got no time to live, and I can't say goodbye
And I'm regretting having memories
Of my friends who they used to be
Beside me before they left me to die
(Five Nights at Freddy's 4: I Got No Time)
I get that Toriel might be out of character with being this overall violent but it's what a mother would do to protect their child. To anyone wondering, look up the Toriel Guardian fanmade boss battle to get a sense at what's to come of her.
Don't worry only 4 characters die in this story and Undyne isn't one of them. I also now figures that this story will have at least 20 parts now.
Also I want to know any good Undertale songs with lyrics that could go with this story since most of them have been FNaF.
Until next time in Part 10: Welcome to Your Nightmare
Can you guess who's next to witness living horror :)? And what is our favorite flower up to now?
P.s. no one has properly guessed who it is in Part 8. The answer will be revealed in Part 11.
