HP: 1/20
Pain...
All I could feel was pain...
Every inch of our body ached and throbbed..
Just like when I fell..
But what hurt the most...
"FRISK!" Chara cried out, rushing to my side, hysterical and distressed.
...was seeing her cry...
I knew that because of our bond, she could feel the exact same pain that I did, but she did her best to not let it show. Biting down the pain, Chara went into our inventory and took out a Nice Cream bar for me to eat and heal.

Once I was back to full health and on our feet, I caught Chara reading the Nice Cream wrapper with a small and strange smile, her cheeks a bit flushed and an odd warm feeling washed over us. Noticing me, Chara jumped slightly and quickly pocketed the wrapper. Immediately after, I was tackled to the snowy ground by my partner as she held onto me tightly.
"...I'll hurt him..." She hissed darkly as she buried her face into our sweater, clinging onto me tightly. "I'll kill him for hurting you..." She continued bitterly, nuzzling into our chest as the feeling hatred and outrage washed over us.
"Chara...don't. You'll only prove his point by doing that." I retorted with a sigh. "If we really wanna get back at him, we should take down the barrier and free everyone and prove to him that we aren't mindless murderers."
With a groan, we rose to our feet, as I helped Chara up. "Let's continue onto Snowdin Town and deal with Papyrus." I said, stretching our still sore arms.
"...Yeah, let's go, Partner." She said simply. There was a lingering feeling of contempt from Chara, but she took our hand wordlessly and we continued onto the town ahead.

...It's so empty...
Wiping the dust from my face, I took a moment to observe the now deathly silent snowy forest. Chara had been strangely quiet for awhile now and her silence is starting to get unnerving.
A chill ran down my spine and I whirled around to face whatever was there, the knife in my hand, ready to strike.
...but nobody came...
Giving out a slight shudder, I continued onwards to the town and hopefully finish off whoever's left in the area.
If I was right, then LV is the key to making Chara real again, and if I kill everyone, then Chara will be that much closer to gaining a body.
For my friend...for my...partner, I'll kill every last monster, human, and anything in my path in order to gain the power to resurrect her from death.
I was determined to make the world burn for my partner.

(Chara's POV)
Once we arrived at Snowdin Town, Frisk immediately went to the Snow'd Inn. However, Frisk was so exhausted that he nearly passed out right at the door, causing me to take control and get a room for us.
My head snapped over to my partner's sleeping form as I heard him begin to stir and whimper.
Looks like the nightmares are coming back...
Sighing, I went over to Frisk and took his hand into mine, trying to calm him down. A cold, empty feeling washed over me, then followed by contempt, loathing and finally loneliness.
It seems that Frisk is dreaming of the surface.
I hated seeing him like this...my partner needed me.
Closing my eyes, I entered our shared mindscape and knelt before Frisk's sleeping form. Lightly tapping his forehead, the halves of his Soul that we shared appeared out from our chests. I closed my eyes and braced for the flood of emotions that washed over me as I connected our halves and was pulled into Frisk's dreams.

I was drawn into a human settlement. It was small, very small. With the houses built out of wood and arranged tightly, with only a few nooks and crannies in between. The villagers were faceless and colorless, and seemed much larger than average humans should be. Across from the center of the village, in a small alleyway, sat the only human in color, curled up in a small ball, his face red and cheeks puffy from sobbing for a long period of time.
..Frisk.
I was about to run over to him, to comfort and tell him that he isn't alone anymore. But before I could, a smaller human, a child, snuck their way over to Frisk, gradually gaining color and facial features. It was a girl, around Frisk's age, if not slightly younger, with short black hair and violet eyes. The way she seemed so concerned about Frisk ticked me off somehow.
"Sorry if I worried you out there." I heard a voice beside me as present day Frisk walked over to me. "It's been awhile since I've had nightmares, hasn't it?" He chuckled, watching the black haired girl take the younger Frisk by the hand and drag him off with a wide, encouraging grin.
...The scene sickened me to no end
"Who is she?" I asked, sounding a little more hostile than I'd like.
"Honestly, she's my first friend that I've ever made, and the only one who ignored the council's law and not only paid attention to me, but taught me all kinds of stuff." Frisk explained with a fond chuckle.
He speaks so highly of her...
"W-well, we should head back. Doubt we should keep Papyrus waiting." Frisk said nervously, glancing at my souring mood, and tried changing the subject.
Sighing, I relented. "Fine we'll go. But I'm not letting you off the hook so easily, Frisk. We're gonna talk more about this friend of yours later." I grumbled before crossing my arms.
I want to know who that girl was to Frisk...
...and I also wanted to know how Frisk felt about this girl..
It seems that there was so much about Frisk that still don't know...
Then again...there's a lot about myself that I didn't know either..
A/N: Smaller chapter, i know, but It's been much too long since I updated.
Up next will be the fight with Papyrus and after will be the date with Papyrus, then we'll be done with Snowdin
Also, we got to see a glimpse of Frisk's life one the surface, and someone from his past.
To be honest, I'm not a fan of Undertale OCs, in fact I downright hate them. So I had been conflicted about adding this original character into the story. But after weeks of thinking it over, I figured that Frisk couldn't have been able to survive as long as he had without anyone to interact with or someone to help him out and call friend.
On a side note, I got two questions to you guys:
1: If you could ask a question to Frisk, Chara (or both) or anyone else we've encountered so far, what would it be? (Figured answering questions about the story in character would help me get a better feel for their personalities)
2: How do you guys feel about having Core Frisk in the story anyways? Should I play with other AUs more or keep it as vanilla as possible?
Thank you for your patience and support of this story and keep the feedback coming.
