KNOCK KNOCK!
"Kealani!" I yell. "Open up!"
It is after school on Friday and I continue to knock on her front door.
I finally hear footsteps, and she opens the door a crack.
"What do you want?" she hisses.
"Geez, sorry for making you all hissy," I say. "Well, can I come in? I didn't see you at school today."
"Ok, but hurry!" she replies.
I open the door a bit more and squeeze through.
I shut the door behind me.
Kealani is standing in front of me, all armor equipped except for the helmet.
"What do you want?" she asks.
"First of all, what're you doing?" I ask.
Kealani sighs and starts to walk, motioning for me to follow.
I follow her to her backyard and gasp.
It looks like a training ground or bootcamp or something!
"What did you do?!" I ask.
"I'm trying to train!" Kealani answers. "For the underground. Duh!"
I nod, then grin. "Hey, that's pretty smart."
Kealani smiles. "Thanks."
"Also, why weren't you at school?" I ask.
"Let's just say," Kealani starts. "my parents may or may not have thought I was sick so I could stay home and practice for the underground tonight."
I put a hand to my hip. "Really Kealani?"
Kealani tilts her head to one side. "You're the one that said I am risking my life. I'm trying to ensure that I don't die! It's for a good reason!"
I shrug. "Ok, I guess. How are you with the spear?"
"You tell me," Kealani says, pulling her spear up.
She throws the spear, hitting a target perfectly.
My eyes widen. "Practice makes perfect, am I right?"
Kealani winks at me and walks over to get her spear.
"Well, I also came to remind you we are going to the underground tonight," I say.
Kealani nods. "I know. Thanks for coming over, though."
I wink at her. "No problem. I'll leave you to your training. Bye!"
"Bye!" Kealani calls.
.
"Ouch," I say, as I crash into the ground from the portal.
I land in the same spot we stopped last time in the underground.
Kennedy walks over to me and extends a hand. "Are you ok?"
I grasp her hand and nod. "Yeah. I'm fine."
She pulls me up and I look around to see everyone else there.
Kealani is clutching her spear by her side, staring off into the distance with a straight face.
I walk over to her and put a hand to her shoulder.
She looks at me.
"Are you ok?" I ask.
Kealani nods. "Yeah. I'm ready."
Kealani
I look up to see Undyne on the rock.
I take a deep breath.
"I'm going," I say.
I, first, transform into the armor, leaving my helmet off.
I approach the cave.
"That's it, then...!" Undyne says. "No more running away! HERE I COME!"
I take a deep breath as Undyne charges towards me with a spear in her hand.
I am brought into battle. She turns my soul green and we start.
A green circle surround me and there is a shield I can use to block spears.
I block everyone with ease for half of the time. After blocking for a while, Undyne swipes her spear and my soul is red.
Red means I can flee, right?
I look back at Kennedy.
She mouths 'Flee.'
I press Mercy, then flee and prepare to run for my life.
I am out of battle. I start to run as fast as my feet can carry me, Undyne hot on my trail.
I run across a place with water and floating ice in it.
Right when I cross it, I am brought back into battle.
She turns my soul green again.
Dang!
I start to block again, but it gets harder.
Yet, even though one of the small spears hit me directly, it took only one HP, due to my armor.
Man, I am soo glad I wore this armor
Another spear hits me and I am at seventeen HP.
When there is no more shield and I have to move to dodge the spears, Undyne turns my soul red.
I pick Mercy, then flee.
I run from close to the water and up.
I get to a place where there is an electrical sign that reads:
WELCOME TO HOTLAND!
I am brought back into battle.
"STOP RUNNING AWAY!" she yells.
I shake my head. "I'm not gonna fight you or let you hurt me. If we actually try we can be friends, you know?"
"Friends with a human?!" Undyne exclaims. "Do you know what would happen if I were friends with you?"
I am about to say that Papyrus accepted us as friends but say no more and realize my soul is red.
I flee.
I start to run when there is a ringing in my pocket.
"Good god, who could be calling me?" I mutter under my breath.
I answer the phone.
"Hello?" I answer, a bit annoyed.
"HEY! WHAT'S UP?!"
I take a deep breath, very ticked off.
"I WAS JUST THINKING...YOU AND YOUR FRIENDS, ME, AND UNDYNE SHOULD ALL HANG OUT SOMETIME!"
"Let me assure you, that is not a great idea," I say quietly.
"WHY?" Papyrus questions. "I THINK YOU WOULD BE GREAT PALS!"
"LET'S MEET UP AT HER HOUSE LATER!" Papyrus decides.
"No no!" I say. "Wa-"
But he already hung up.
Once I put the phone away, Undyne catches up.
Back into battle.
My soul is red so I flee.
I run and run till I reach a room with Sans, sleeping on his hot dog stand and a bridge overlooking lava.
I run across the bridge, not looking down, and to a room with cracked ground and a water cooler.
Undyne slowly walks across the bridge, saying, "Armor...so...hot...But I can't...give up..."
She walks another step before falling down.
Without second thought, I run towards the water cooler, pour some cold water, and pour the water on Undyne.
She stands up, looking better.
Undyne looks me in the eyes.
I give her a half-smile before she walks off.
Once she walks off, I collapse onto the ground, sweat rolling down my face from running and my armor.
The girls rush over to me.
"You did it!" Annaka exclaims.
I nod, panting. I swallow and point to the water.
"Water," I say, my throat feeling very dry.
"I've got it!" Nya exclaims.
Nya rushes over to the cooler, pouring a cup of cold water.
She rushes back over and hands me the cup of water.
I hold the cup up and drink out of it, the cold water slithering down my throat and moistening me.
Once I drink it, I let out a breath and give Nya thumbs up.
"I'm good," I say.
Nya puts my arm around her shoulder and pulls me off of the ground.
I stand up, a bit shaky at first, but fine.
"Alright!" I say. "Let's get a move on!"
