Okay, I decided to upload the second chapter before the day was over after all. I wasn't sure if I would or not, but I figured there wouldn't be any harm in that. Plus not much related to the actual story actually happened in the first chapter. This one a lot happens! I hope you all are enjoying this so far. Also I am going to do something for you readers.
If any of you have a question I will answer them in my author's note. I'm mostly doing this for those who decided not to read my fnaf trilogy, but even if you have and have a question related to the crossover I will answer them as best as I can. Only time I won't answer if it ends up as a spoiler. So if you have questions, don't be shy to ask. I'm pretty sure I won't get in trouble as long as I answer them outside of the actual story. (For those who don't know I kind of got in trouble for something like that before, but I am pretty sure this is way of answering people is okay)
Anyways, that's all I have to say, so enjoy the second chapter!
Nick let out a hiss of pain when he finally felt his body land on something hard. "Ow!" He cried, wiping his eyes of his tears. He sniffled softly before looking down. "That really hurt…"
The first thing the boy notice was the bright golden flowers he was resting on. He curiously plucked one and examined it closer.
"Flowers?" He questioned confused. "Why are flowers here in the pizzeria?" He sat up, still eyeing the flower. It was only when he slowly began to notice his surroundings that he looked away. "Huh?"
All around him was nothing but walls that looked to be made of some kind of rock. A bright light was shining down on him and when the boy looked up he noticed there was a large opening way above him. He squinted at the light that blinded him slightly before standing up and dropping the flower. "How far did I fall?" He questioned confused. He cupped his hands around his mouth and inhaled deeply before screaming out, "Mikey! Can you hear me!? Freddy? Sammy?"
No response.
Nick frowned, deciding he would just float up to the opening, but gasped when he noticed he wasn't able to. "Huh?" He tried again, this time jumping up in the air, but gravity just pulled him back down. "Why can't I float?" He looked down at his feet, thinking that maybe if he stared at them long enough they would suddenly lift off the ground. When that proved to not work he frowned and crossed his arms. "Something is seriously wrong here…"
He turned his head around, looking for maybe another way out. That's when he noticed a small path. He studied it for a moment longer before looking back up at the opening. "Guess I have no choice…" He concluded.
So with that said, he dusted off his green and yellow striped shirt before walking down the path.
It didn't take long for him to find an entrance to walk through. When he did he found himself in a new area and right in front of him was a large yellow flower. What made this one stand out from the patch that broke his fall was that this one had a face on the front.
The flower shifted in place slowly, as if waiting for someone. The plant only seemed to notice Nick as the child cautiously stepped closer.
The flower looked over at him, forming a bright smile, but one good look at Nick and the plant let out a small gasp. "Wha…"
"You can talk!?" Nick questioned shocked. He was already freaked out by the fact this flower had a face, but now it showed signs of talking. Just what was this thing and why was it…from what Nick guessed…under the pizzeria?
The flower seemed to be studying him closely, narrowing his eyes suspiciously. What? Where…where is that other human? This isn't them? He began to think to himself. The only time we get a new human is when that idiot king collects the previous one's soul! So who the hell is this idiot!?
"Uh…hello? Mr. Flower? Are you okay?" Nick asked confused when the plant seemed to be forming a very confused and concerned face.
That seemed to bring the plant back to reality as he blinked quickly a few times. Well…whatever…let's just do the usual thing. He smiled innocently and giggled. "Oh, I'm sorry about that. I was lost in thought." He giggled again before continuing. "Anyways, howdy! I'm Flowey! Flowey the Flower."
"Flowey?" Nick smiled, but still kept looking at the plant in confusion. "That's uh…a nice name."
So far this human is much more talkative that the last one…Flowey thought, keeping up his smile. "Hmm…You're new to the Underground, aren'tcha?"
"Underground?" Nick questioned, furrowing his brows together. "So…I'm really not at the pizzeria anymore?"
Pizzer-what!? Flowey wondered. This human is weird. "Golly, you must be so confused. Someone ought to teach you how things work around here! I guess little old me will have to do."
"How things work?" Nick repeated. He frowned thinking about how all he wanted was to get back to his family. "Uh…Flowey, could you maybe-"
"Ready? Here we go!" the plant interrupted.
"H-hey, wait!"
Before Nick could understand what was going on, a small red heart popped up in front of him. He gasped and backed away, but the heart seemed to follow him. He froze, looking at it confused before slowly poking at it. He gasped when he felt like someone poked him from behind, but when he turned his head no one was there. The small seven year old looked back at the heart again and poked it again. Once again the same sensation repeated from behind him.
Flowey resisted the urge to roll his eyes before continuing the lines he has spoken so many times before. "See that heart? That is your Soul, the very culmination of your being!"
"My soul?" Nick frowned again. "But…I'm already…" He stopped before he finished his sentence out loud. I'm already dead? How could I still have a soul? Do ghosts really have souls still?
"Your Soul starts off weak," Flowey continued, "but can grow strong if you gain a lot of LV."
"Huh? LV? What's-"
"What's LV stand for? Why, LOVE, of course!" Flowey hid his smirk when Nick smiled happily at the word. "You want some LOVE, don't you?"
"Yeah!"
"Don't worry, I'll share some with you!" The flower winks while sticking his tongue out. Nick sees this and giggles at the cute and silly face.
The boy only frowns and gasps when five small little bullet sized pellets pop up behind Flowey from seemingly nowhere.
"Down here, LOVE is shared through…little white…'friendliness pellets.'" He smiled up at the child. "Are you ready? Move around! Get as many as you can!"
Nick hesitantly lifted up his hand, shocked to see the heart moved with it this time. He noticed as the pellets began to slowly move closer to him. Before they could pass, Nick moved the heart up right in the path of the pellets.
The second they hit the tiny heart, Nick felt a sharp pain shoot through his entire body. The child screamed out in agony as the pain ran through him. "Wh-what?" The poor confused and now terrified child has never felt pain like that since the day he died. "Fl-flow-flowey? Wh-what happ…something went…wron-" He slowly turned his light blue eyes on the plant only to gasp in fright.
A sickening smiling, showing off every one of Flowey's large teeth was stretched across the flower's head. His once friendly and kind eyes were narrowed down in evil slits as they looked up at the child. "You idiot." He spoke in a dark twisted version of his sweet voice. "In this world, it's kill or be killed."
"Flo-flowey, why…?" Nick backed away, but felt his feet freeze in place.
"Why would anyone pass up an opportunity like this!?" His face twisted again, this time his sinister mouth shut but still remained creepy as his eyes darkened, now completely black save for the small white pupil in the center. As his face shifted, the pellets popped up around Nick's soul, circling the heart leaving no room for escape. "DIE."
Nick tried his best to move his soul away, but everywhere he moved, the pellets blocked his path. "N-no…Someone…please…Mikey? Save me please. Please!"
Flowey just laughed cruelly at Nick's pleads of help, forcing the pellets to move closer and closer to the human soul.
Just as they were about to touch the heart, the pellets vanished.
"Huh?" Flowey questioned, glaring at the now safe soul.
Nick gasped when he suddenly felt much better. He really felt no more pain from the previous attack. He looked up just in time to see a small flame pop up next to Flowey before hitting him. Flowey let out a loud yelp as he went flying away.
He looked over at where the plant landed before another figure caught his attention. He whimpered in fright slightly as a tall goat woman seemed to suddenly come walking in. She sadly looked in the direction Flowey went. "What a terrible creature, torturing such a poor innocent youth…" the goat woman seemed to notice Nick's scared appearance and smiled sweetly. "Ah, do not be afraid, my child. I am Toriel, caretaker of the Ruins. I pass through this place every day to see if anyone has fallen down."
"Fallen…down?" Nick frowned. "Well, I guess that is what I did…"
"You are the first human to come here in a long time. Come! I will guide you through the catacombs."
Nick frowned when he noticed the heart slowly vanish away. He only looked back up at Toriel as she began to speak up again.
"This way." She began to walk away, only to stop to make sure Nick was following her.
He continued to eye her suspiciously. He wasn't sure if he should trust her or not. He trusted Flowey, and that obviously didn't end well…But one good look at this woman's sweet smile and the child instantly got the same vibe as Freddy or Fredbear. The two always gave a fatherly feeling when either of them were in the room. It was how the brown bear even earned his nickname "Papa Bear". This woman seemed to be giving off a tender motherly love feeling as she looked down at Nick patiently. His suspicious frown only faded slightly as he gave her a faint smile before deciding to follow her anyways. After all, following her was by far better than staying here and running into Flowey again.
Once the boy was gone, Flowey popped back up in his original position. He glared at the retreating figures before laughing. "Well, they might not be here this time, but this human seems just as interesting." He continued to laugh insanely. "This is going to be so much fun!" He smirked widely before popping down into the ground and vanishing from sight.
Mike ran into the room where all his family members were gathered around. "What's going on? I just happened to switch to this room's camera to find you all standing around. Is something wrong?"
Freddy worriedly looked over at the young ghost guard. "Uh…well…Mikey, we…we may have a problem."
"What happened Freddy?"
The brown bear looked over at his older brother, Fredbear or just Golden as he now prefers to be called.
The oldest animatronic sighed before walking over to the guard. "We can't seem to find Nick."
"What?!"
Sammy floated up to be eye level with the guard. "Nick said he heard something and ran off to find it. Some of us followed him, and just saw him walk down to the end of the hall, but when we got there he was gone."
"Did you guys search everywhere? Maybe he teleported to another room." Mike suggested.
"We did." Shawn, Sammy's twin brother explained. "Nick is nowhere in the pizzeria."
"Tha-that's not possible. We know we can't escape the pizzeria." Mike said, now sounding worried. "When the old buildings were still up we would just teleport to one of them as soon as we stepped out of this place. Now with this building being the only remaining one left, there is literally no place Nick could go."
"We know." Freddy said sighing. "But Nick is just…gone…"
A deep silence filled the room, no one sure what to say.
"M-mikey?" Angelica, one of the other ghost children spoke up. "You…you don't think Nick…maybe moved on without us, do you?"
"No." the guard shook his head. "We would know if he did. And even if he did, we all would have moved on with him."
"Sounds as right as we can imagine." Bonnie commented. "But that doesn't answer where Nick vanished to. Do you think he is just strong enough to escape the building?"
"It's a possibility." Golden answered. "But really there is no way we can prove this unless one of the other children does so too."
"I can try!" Timmy, the youngest and shortest child shouted excitedly. He closed his eyes, seemingly trying to concentrate. However after a moment of struggling the boy sighed tiredly. "No, I can't focus my power…"
"Nick was around the longest out of all us ghosts." Danny pointed out. "Maybe…maybe Bonnie's idea is right and the kid just discovered he is strong enough to step out of this place."
"We can only hope that is the truth." Freddy spoke up. "In the meantime, we should continue looking for Nick, just in case he is just hiding from us. Mike, return to your office and start searching through the cameras."
"Right…" the guard worriedly replied, looking down.
Foxy seemed to notice and approached the young man and placed his good paw on his shoulder. "Don't ye worry lad. We will find him. You can count on me lad."
Mike smiled gratefully. "Thanks Captain Foxy. That means a lot."
Returning the smile, Foxy gently nudged the boy away.
Mike looked down at the remaining children and gestured for them to follow him. "Come on guys. Let me at least keep an eye on you five."
They nodded and followed the guard away.
Once it was only the animatronics, plus Daniel and Luke, Spring Bonnie, or just Spring looked over at his older brother. "So Goldie Locks, you really think we will find Nick?"
The yellow bear ignored the nickname the rabbit has given him since the two were first made, but answered anyways. "Yes. I know we will. I know Nick is out there somewhere and he will return to us."
"Well…let's hope you're right bro…"
"I know I am."
Spring rolled his eyes at his brother's confident attitude before patting his paws down on the remaining ghosts' shoulders. "Well, I'm going on the lookout. Danny and Luke you two are helping me."
"Why do I have to help you?" Danny demanded.
"Because I said so. Now move it." Spring grinned as he roughly shoved the two cousins away.
Toy Freddy, or as he prefers Fred looked over at all the Toys. "We'll search the other end of the pizzeria some more. Come on! Move it!"
"Great…" Toy-Bonnie or just Bon-Bon complained. "Fred is starting to sound or tyrannical again…"
"Bon-Bon…" Fred warned.
With a scoff, the blue rabbit followed after the bear, the other Toys behind him.
Freddy sighed as he watched them all go. Bonnie patted him on the back. "Hey, don't freak out Freddy. Nick will show up soon. I guarantee it!"
"Yeah…you're right." He looked at the remaining animatronics around him. "Well, I guess we are a team then. Let's get moving guys."
"Right!" Chica commented, following Freddy down the hall.
Only when everyone was gone that a hidden figure slowly walked in the center of the hall. They looked around confused before frowning and looking down at blue and purple striped shirt. "Something went wrong…" They looked back up, a determined glint in their eyes. "Nick, huh? So that's the name of the kid who took my place." A small smile formed on this child's face. "Don't worry Nick, I'll think of something to help you." Knowing that they just might be able to help this odd family, fills them with determination.
And there you have it! Nick is now in the Underground, but what's this? That person at the end of the chapter...that couldn't be...
Hehe, I am getting excited for this story already and I only posted two chapters. I haven't even gotten a review yet so I have no idea how good this is so far. Anyways, that's not what matters or what you guys probably care about. I bet you all are more curious about if I will keep uploading this. Or not, I'm just going to assume that is what you care about. And the answer to that is yes. I already have a few more chapters basically typed out and ready to go. I don't know when I will update this again, but it will probably be soon.
For those who have been reading my stories for a while now, you probably know about my truth and dare story I have up. If any of you are fans of that one, I will be updating it very soon. I know I promised earlier this week, but things kept coming up and distracting me. But it's coming so keep an eye out if you are reading that.
And well...that's all I have to say for now. Again, I hope you all are enjoying this so far.
So until next time! Bye! And don't forget to review!
