The human walked across the narrow bridge, looking over the smaller island that lay before them. Whatever this place was, it looked uninhabited, and a thick veil of fog shrouded the island. They reached the end of the bridge, but was stopped by a new monster.
This monster seemed different, almost like a special enemy. The human said hello to the monster.
"hOI!" The little monster squeaked. "I'm TemMIE!" The human burst out laughing at their voice and terrible grammar, but Temmie was not to be taken lightly. They turned upside down, then hurled themselves at the human. The child was hit in the gut, and fell on their back.
"TemMIE wan TEM FLAKS!" Temmie said, vibrating intensely.
The human sighed and checked their pockets, but they had never heard of, or seen, Tem Flakes. The human politely told Temmie that they didn't have what they wanted.
"No TeM flayks? NUU! *dies*" Temmie flipped over, their eyes being crossed out, and then returned to their normal, vibrating self.
What is this thing... the child thought, as Temmie forgot her other attack.
The human stood for a while, wondering how to spare this thing. They looked up at Temmie, only to raise an eyebrow in confusion. Her face had seemingly vibrated away from her body, and was now simply floating beside her.
The human offered to let Temmie pet them. "AWWWWW! TeM wAnna pet coot human! but hooman alerjic to TeM!" Temmie forgot her other attack again, and finally let the human spare them.
The child walked forward, hearing a distant sound of odd music. They turned a corner, seeing a small village on the shore of the island. Looking around, they saw a poorly constructed sign that read: 'hOI! Welcom tu... TEM ISLAND!' The child walked forward, seeing Tems walk to and from their houses on the beach, occasionally sticking their heads in the sand for no apparent reason, and vibrating on the ground.
The child walked up to one, and it said, "hOI! Im temmie! And dis is my fwend, temmie!" The Tem motioned to another Tem on her right. The child walked over to it to see what that Tem had to say. "hOI! Im Temmie! And dis is my fwend, temmie!" The Tem motioned to her friend behind her, and the human walked over to it. "hOI! I'm temmie! Don forgot my friend!" The Temmie pointed to the right, at their friend. The human shrugged and walked over to it.
"Hi." It said in a monotone voice. "I'm Rob."
After the human took a small break to laugh, they continued exploring the island. They observed one of their houses, which was just a cardboard box. In fact, all of the houses were cardboard boxes. A Tem waddled over to the child and sat on their foot. "TeM wuld LOOOOOOVE to pet cute human, but hoOMan allergic to tem. Dat OK... tem understan... Tem... ALSO alerjic to TeM!"
Wait, so that means- immediately, the human's suspicions were confirmed. Boils popped up all over Temmie's face.
"bOIls!" Temmie shouted.
Two more signs were set in front of a small cave, one reading, 'HOI! Shud chek... TEM SHOP!' and the other one, 'yaYA! AGREES! Go vizit... TEM SHOP!' The child walked inside of the small cave, seeing a Tem with a blue visor on her head. "HOI! Welcome to... TEM SHOP!" This particular Temmie's face moved disproportionately around its head, taking in all of the plain scenery with intrigue.
The child looked at what was on the walls, seeing three different prices for Temmie Flakes, random articles of clothing tacked to the walls, and several picture frames. But instead of pictures, the picture frames had images drawn on them in crayon.
"hooman buy TeM flakes?" Temmie suggested, pointing to the 'On Sale' Tem Flakes, which cost 2g.
They bought the Tem Flakes, opening the box up to see what they tasted like. To the human's surprise, these fabled Tem Flakes were only ripped-up pieces of construction paper. They sighed and tried to sell a butterscotch pie they were carrying.
"WHOAS! You gotta... BUTTSPIE?!" Tem shook in happiness. "Hnnnnn... TEM alwaYS wanna buttspie, but TeM gotta pay for home mortgag." Tem started sweating in apprehension. "PPPPPPPPPPP! I gotta hav that buttsPIE! Tem buy buttspie for... 100 g?"
Normally the human would've accepted this offer, but they would feel bad for making Tem miss out on a house payment, so they declined. "B-but.. p!" Tem doubled the price, and the human accepted. "THANK!" Tem shouted. The child headed out of the cave, hearing a happy, "bOI!" from Temmie.
The human explored the island a bit, seeing similar things that were as random and silly as the shop had been. There was a 'very famus' carving of Tem on a cliff face, but it had been carved sideways. A separate group of Temmies were trying to fly off a tree. They were taping soda cans to their back, vibrating intensely to pop the cans, and would then shoot of the tree. They would stay in the air for a few minutes, then slowly float to the ground.
After the human declined to purchase a stock in the local 'qwiksand pools', they decided to leave the island. All the Temmies waved goodbye, some of them vibrating over to the human and hugging their legs. The child told them all goodbye, then walked across the bridge to search for a new path to take.
