What was I just dreaming about? I wondered. All I could remember was that it was a nightmare, a horrible one at that. I woke up in a cold sweat. Am I getting sick? I sighed. Whatever. I needed to get to Azzy's puzzle. I grabbed his paw and teleported us there. "Don't grab me too hard!" He whimpered.
"Oh...Sorry Azzy!" Whoops! I didn't realize I was holding him so hard!
"Didn't we already agree you're not going to call Azzy!"
"Okay Azzy!" I winked at him and stuck my tongue out. Then I instantly pulled it back in. I didn't want it to freeze in place! Then I remembered what I wanted to ask Asriel.
"Do you think I'm sick?"
"Wha?"
"Do you think I'm sick?"
"Maybe...You haven't gotten sick since...the incident.."
"I prefer if we don't talk about it, remember."
1 Year Ago:
"Azzy! I dare you to lick that icicle!"
"Well I dare you to lick that buttercup!"
"Okay!"
"My child...don't do that! You'll get sick!" Toriel reached out her hand to stop me. I ignored her and reached out my crimson gloved hand and snatched up the buttercup. "Ya know what Azzy?"
"What?"
"I'll just eat the whole thing!"
"No, Chara! I didn't mean that! Please...no!" I shoved it in my mouth. Asriel suddenly burst into tears. Toriel grabbed my hand and dragged me home. When we got there, she made me take some strange medicine. Then, I started throwing up everywhere. When I finished, she tucked me into bed and kissed me on the cheek. Later, I found out she stayed with me all night. I had a fever for 3 weeks. At first, she thought I was going to die. But I was too determined.
Turns out, Azzy just wanted to freaking sit there and make a speech! I shrugged and went along with it. All of a sudden, Frisk walked up to him.
"U-um hi!" She said shyly.
"You're back human! And I see you have company!" Frisk turned around and noticed me sitting there. My butt was freezing, so I got up.
"Oh."
"Not that she could help you defeat a god like me!" I cleared my throat. If either of us is a god, it would be me. Not that I would ever mention that. I didn't want Frisk to know. Asriel went back to talking. I blocked it out until… "Trained by Mommie," I snickered, "I mean the captain of the royal guard! Yeah, trained by her. But my point had been made. Even with the two of you working together, you can't best me! But feel free to try." Asriel ran off to go put the finishing touches on his trap. I teleported in front of Frisk when she wasn't looking.
"Hey, sorry about that. Azzy doesn't warm up to new people so fast, but don't you just feel like the luckiest human around?" I took a moment to facepalm. "Oh wait... there's only two of us here!" We both burst out laughing.
"Where should I go next?" She asked.
I shrugged, "Just follow the path!" I walked off in the opposite direction of where I told her to go. I teleported just a little bit ahead of her. I needed to give her more advice. She walked up to me and tilted her head to the side a bit. "What are you doing here? You walked the other way!"
"Don't question it. Just...I need to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"So...Azzy has a lot of cool attacks he's been working on."
"Do you have any attacks?"
"That's a story for another time," She gave me a confused look as I said this. I ignored it and continued along with what I was going to say. "Anyways, most of what he knows come from Mom, but…"
"WHAT?" Her shy, sweet voice was gone.
"There's one attack that's all his." She looked kind of annoyed I stopped her to say that. But...I wasn't done. "It's called Star Blazing. A lot of stars crash down and break into little bits. Then a HUGE star comes down and makes all the other stars look pathetic. I'd keep my distance from that attack if I were you!"
"Your brother doesn't seem like that much of a threat," Frisk scoffed.
"H e i s."
