Ello folks! Arana here! And I'm remaking Deltashift because I had an idea to make it better. Plus, this way I don't have to do what I thought of for the last version (as in having to do each of the fallen children, every time Frisk put on their respective armor) and to make the plot a little better. So, let us do this!

Frisk speaking to the ghosts via thought

Prologue

Frisk had been thought many Resets. In fact, so many that glitches started happening. At first, Frisk and Chara noted changes in the story, or the monsters, and even the areas in the Underground. Sometimes, someone might have changed genders even. Only the Reset after Frisk did her first, and only, regrettable genocide run, did things go out of whack. Of course, Chara, known from then on as C'ara, gave Frisk her soul back once they realized something was off.

And that something, was the fact that Frisk had to fall into the Underground, as she did not find herself on C'ara's grave. And, after a little questioning from Flowey, whom remembered the Reset before, did they find that the Underground was different. For one thing… there were no monster, only Flowey, as they had all passed away from a terrible human, long, long ago.

In an attempt to set the world right, Frisk Reset, and was happy to wake up on the bed of golden flowers, but felt strange. Of course, she was used to waking up feeling strange, but C'ara's reaction was the key point.

For some reason, she, in fact, was a Chara, complete with a set of blood red eyes.

And then, with a big yawn, did a Frisk appear, with one eye seemingly stitched shut, mumbling about how the last Reset felt odd and the supposed next genocide run. When the Frisk noticed C'ara, she was surprised at first. And when Chara called the first Frisk by her name, things got confusing for everyone.

This was the first AU that they had landed in, Underswap.

Eventually, their Resets caused them to go to two more AUs, Demitale, where C'ara gained cuffs on her wrists, and Dancetale. It was only after they landed in a Void with a Sans who was forever bleeding that they were discovered by the TPU, as this Sans was known as Geno, and his AU was a slight change from the original AU he was from. That and Geno was in a relationship with Reaper, a Sans from an AU known as Reapertale.

When Ink eventually met the two, he decided they had a use. He asked them to keep doing pacifist routes in any AU they landed in, and then took them to a empty AU so Frisk could Reset.

The next AU they landed in had no name, as it was brand new. When Ink followed them, after they got to Snowdin with that AU's Chara, he was surprised that they had discovered a new one. So, he dubbed Frisk "the Anomaly, and his "friend" Error (he had randomly shown up) dubbed C'ara as "the Follower."

And so this AU hopping continued, until now, in a new AU dubbed Deltashift, by a certain Creator who also monitored the special Multiverse of the Gumdrops Series.

Chapter 1

Frisk was used to waking up in strange places after a Reset. Usually it would be a strange version of the Beginning, but sometimes it would be later on in the Underground, or even on the surface. It was rare to wake up on the Surface, even rarer when it wasn't in an orphanage.

So, as Frisk found herself in a bed, without the blaring noise of an orphanage, she thought it odd. Instinctively, she reached her conscious out to connect with C'ara and hear what she had to say.

When she didn't brush up against her counterpart's being, Frisk was confused. Reaching out further, the accidently hit the conscious of a pigeon, effectively startling the poor bird and causing it to fly off.

Drawing herself back to her anchoring body, Frisk had a growing feeling of dread. If C'ara was not about, something was terribly wrong. The two were never apart, and if they were forced to, they found each other in moments.

After about five minutes of C'ara not floating in, Frisk once more reached out, this time brushing against the conscious of her ghostly friend, who seemed to be just to her right. For a moment, Frisk paused, before drawing herself back and opening her eyes to look at C'ara.

Finding herself in a regal room, Frisk was surprised. For a moment, she looked about, until her eyes rested on the mirror nearby, which reflected her appearance. She was a teen, to be sure, as she realized that her body was once more female.

However, she turned to where she felt C'ara's conscious, only to see the ghost girl hanging upside down in a odd state of rest.

C'ara, Frisk said, using her thoughts to convey her words to the ghost. This effectively woke up the ghost girl, the chains on her cuffs jingling for a moment.

*Hmm? Chara mumbled, looking about. *OK, where the heck are we? This isn't an orphanage!

Exactly what I was thinking… Frisk sighed, getting out of the rather comfortable bed and going to the wardrobe. Opening it, she found many outfits, all of which had rather long sleeves, but it took her a moment to find her usual striped shirt and brown shorts. It took her another moment to find the brown boots, having to go off recent memory she had from her "unawake" (this word was used to refer to the Frisk or other fallen human before Frisk "awoke") self, piecing together her unawake self's life.

And then got an odd sense of dread once more, as she realized she was an upheld figure in a community of magic using humans known as Bright Souls, and was scheduled to fly to Mount Ebbot that very day, with the wings of her soul.

For a moment, she stood there, then conveyed the strange message to C'ara, whose eyes widened. *Your soul has wings? was the ghost girl's response. *Jeez, you're going to dig through your unawake self's memories for this…

After a few more moments of brushing up, Frisk opened the door that apparently went into the rest of the building, only to discover that a breeze flowed by her. Walking out, she found herself on a balcony, her room build on the inside of a high mountain's cliff. Below her, she saw other balconies like her, and some figures jumping off and floating away with wings colored like that of human souls.

*Wait, you're supposed to jump..?

Apparently.

After searching through her memories for another moment, she came upon a memory of her unawake self's school days, which was a lesson of how to summon your wings.

It was simply summoning one's soul, but flying was a little harder seeing as one had to be attuned with their soul at all times, which is why it was usually never taught to younger Bright Souls until they proved ready.

After a moment of relief, Frisk was glad for her time in the AUs where she had wings. After all, this way she'd be able to fly way better than before.

After a moment, Frisk summoned her soul, but was surprised when it didn't float above her chest like usual.

*It's on your back. C'ara said, pointing to her back.

Oh, thanks, Frisk said with a mental chuckle.

Then, she walked back to the door, and took a running jump off the balcony, quickly gaining control of her wings and following the horde of Bright Souls below her to where, supposedly, the goodbye ceremony was to be held for her, as the other Bright Souls who had flown to Mount Ebbot had never returned.
