Frisk quickly turned to meet the person and it was floating,white ghost. "Hello! I'm…. Ghosty! Ghosty the Ghost!"
Oh my god, oh my god, she's totally not going to believe this. She's not THAT dumb. Ghosty thought to himself in his head.
"OK, then…. Ghosty." Frisk said, not believing that was his name. BUT, it wasn't too much of a stretch to believe that was his name, since she met a frog named 'Froggit' on the way to Papyrus' house.
Ghost stared at her with disbelief. OK, maybe she is that dumb….
"Where are we?" She asked. Around her, there was green and red goo, with some white mixed in it, and there were trees as far as the eye could see.
There seemed to be a very faint white path going through the trees, but it was very hard to see. Other then that, there were only trees around her and the Ruins door right behind her.
"We're in Snowdin." Ghosty told her. "But trust me, it's not just snow that's mixed in there." Frisk took a long look in the snow, and regretfully asked "What is it?"
Ghosty showed a huge smile and said "Garbage and….. BLOOD." Frisk instantly jumped on to a tree and hugged it for dear life, not wanting to touch the ground.
While laughing, Ghosty said "Don't was worry! This blood is stained from like, 20 years ago!" Frisk got down from the tree and stared angrily at Ghosty.
"What!? It was just a prank, bro!" Frisk ignored him and followed the faint path through the trees. "Wait up! OK, I promise not to do any pranks, just don't leave me!" Normally, Frisk would've ignored him and left, but something about the fear in his voice stopped her.
She turned and said "OK, but you have to PROMISE." He smiled and said back to her "I PROMISE."
"OK, I'll allow you to come with me." She said as Ghosty happily followed her.
Frisk had to weave and dodge a few trees, with Ghosty snickering as she failed some, but she ignored him.
Finally, after a few minutes of losing her path, she finally reached a bridge. "OK, just cross it. If I recall correctly, no one hangs around this place."
Right as he said that, a knife that came out of nowhere gently grazed her head. "RUN!" Ghosty told her, while floating across the bridge.
More knives started passing by her, just barely missing her.
Frisk finally arrived at the bridge, but before she could cross, someone appeared out from the trees, holding a knife up to her throat.
"Who are you?" The voice asked. "F-Frisk!" Frisk replied back to it.
The voice then said "Give me your ghost friend and I will let you go." She could see the voice's hand point over to Ghosty, who was hiding behind a tree, but was clearly visible.
What do they want Ghosty for? Frisk thought to herself. Before she could think, she blurted "Why should I!?"
The voice stood there in surprise, then gave a chuckle. "Wow, someone who actually CARES about the people around him." They removed the knife from Frisk's throat and said "My name is Chara. What's yours?"
Frisk stood there, stunned, trying to take what just happened in that one minute. But, she was thankful that she didn't lose her life.
The girl, Chara, was wearing a green coat,
"M-My name is Frisk. Why did you do that for?" She asked, wanting an answer.
Chara gave a quick laugh and explained "I just wanted to see if you were friendly or not, and wow, I'm surprised you actually valued someone else' life over yours!"
Chara put her hands into her jacket, pulling out another knife while saying "If you didn't, while, you were going to have a bad time, to say the least."
Frisk gulped and asked "Is anyone else here?"
Chara smiled and said "Well, we have my brother who's a human FANATIC. Trust me, if you see him, you better run! His puzzles are the deadliest!"
Frisk asked "What kind of 'dangerous'?"
Chara's smile weakened and said "The type of dangerous that could kill a human with one mistake."
Seeing Frisk's face turn sour, Ghosty came out from behind the tree and said "Let's just continue to the town."
All three of them started walking towards when Chara suddenly said "Quick, hide behind the conveniently shaped snowman!"
Frisk ran to what Chara pointed to. It was a snowman in the shape of Frisk.
Ghosty stared at the snowman and whispered "Too convenient, isn't it?"
Frisk nodded, but hid behind it anyways, scared that Chara may kill her is she doesn't.
Ghosty sighed and followed her, still wondering why this snowman was here.
"Chara! Have you found a human yet!?" A high-pitch voice came from the other side of where Chara was standing.
"Sure did, Asriel." Chara told him.
Frisk took a quick look to see
"Where are they!? Did you let them get away!?" Asriel asked angrily.
"Nope. They're behind the conveniently shaped snowman." Chara said, pointing at the conveniently shaped snowman.
"SUREEEE. I'll TOTALLY believe that." Asriel said angrily. "Just admit it! You never FOUND a human! You're just lazy, just like King Sans!"
Chara's voice was getting angry. "No, I am not lazy like king Sans! I actually found a human!" She angrily yelled.
"OK, so what you're saying is, if I go behind the conveniently snowman, there's going to be a human that I can bring to mom?" Asriel asked, calming down.
Chara also calmed down and said "Yes. Yes you will."
"Fine, I'll go check, but if no one is there, then I'll be angry!" He said, as he angrily stomped off towards the snowman.
"Why did she sell us out for!?" Frisk whispered in disbelief.
"Welp, it was nice knowing you Frisk." Ghosty said, disappearing into the ground.
"Of course he would leave me, that little….." Frisk said to herself, looking for something to defend herself with.
She found what looked like to be a glove and put it one her hand. "Please let this work!"
Asriel reached the snowman and looked behind it. The moment he reached it, Frisk delivered a huge punch to his throat and ran.
Asriel feel to his knees and tried to yell something, but it came out as a strangled yelp.
"Told ya there was a human." Chara said with a big smile on her face as she went to help out her brother.
-1 Minute Later-
Frisk finally stopped in front of a huge chasm. "D-Did I get away?" She asked herself.
Right next to her, she saw another one of those golden stars. "That again?"
She walked over and place her hand over it.
*Seeing the chasm makes you feel discouraged, but knowing that you will somehow cross the chasm makes you fell determined.
Two options came up: 'Save' and 'Continue'. Not knowing what this was, she pressed 'Save' and quit out of it.
"Wow, I'm surprised you're still alive!" Frisk turned around and saw Ghosty rising up from the ground.
"Yeah, no thanks to you." Frisk said with an angry face.
"Whatever." Ghosty said while rolling his eyes. "How are you going to get across?"
Right as he said that, a big rock hit her in the head, pushing her down the chasm.
-Author's Notes-
This chapter was REALLY fun to make. Everything just placed itself together, like a puzzle. Also, I want to change the schedule to Friday, so expect chapters going up on that day.
With that said, on to the reviews!

'Storyshift seems like an interesting AU. I had no clue what it was so I took a look after reading this, mostly so I could understand why Papyrus was playing the part of Toriel. I'm really curious to see how the decay affects the Underground and the characters. Can't wait for next Monday!'
I'm glad you enjoyed it! I had a lot of fun working on it, so it makes me glad when people can enjoy my work with me… Thanks!

'you know, in most other AU's, monsters don't need to return to the surface. it's uncomfortable, sure, but they will survive... here, they wont. they NEED to return to the surface. on a side note, who wants to bet that Chara tries to mug frisk, before seeing that they are human (and don't exactly have anything valuable)'
Definitely. Because of his death, they're basically forced out of their home, except they can't even escape their homes! And trust me, it doesn't just affect them.
Plus, here's a cookie for almost getting it right!

'God the underground in this AU is such a shit hole.. Looks like they are in desperate need to get out, lucky for them, Frisk is there~! Really loved Paps in this chap. Also, i havent looked at anything StoryShift related tbh so i have no idea who is saying "Hello" at the end, taking over Sans' role'
Yeah, it's REALLY bad! Yep, Frisk to the rescue! Thanks! I usually have a hard time writing SS!Pap, so thanks for that! Well, Chara takes up the role of Sans, but I wanted Ghosty (SpoilersNapstablookSpoilers) to show up, since he didn't get a chance with Pap around Frisk the whole time, therefore, not being able to go around her.
-Ending Outro-
