Emily
I look down at myself and see that I also have a tail. I touch my head and feel soft cat ears.
I smile and look at Tem.
Tem smiles at me. "hOI! Now yous are a real Tem!"
I wink and do a peace sign. "hOI!"
"I think I'll leave now," I say. "bOI!"
"bOI!" Tem exclaims.
I walk out of Tem Shop to see the group looking around Temmie Village.
"hOI guys!" I exclaim.
They turn towards me and smile.
I walk over to them and smile.
"You got your power?" Annaka asks.
I nod. "I LOVE IT!"
Everyone giggles, including me.
"I'm glad we came," I say.
"How do you transform?" Mimi asks.
I hold up the box of tem flakes.
Kennedy smiles. "Looks like a delicious transformation."
I giggle. "No joke."
"Ok, should we continue to go?" Kennedy asks.
I nod and hold the box low. I turn back to normal.
"Let's go," I say.
Kennedy leads the way out of Temmie Village.
And just as we are walking, I am brought into battle with Temmie.
I press act and feed Temmie tem flakes.
But they fight me and we continue to go on with the fight.
Just as Aaron comes in, Temmie is done.
Aaron starts to fight me.
The fight ends and I am brought out of battle.
I smirk. "That was...interesting."
We make it out of the crystal path to water water and more water!
Kealani
We all jump into the water, Kennedy leading the way.
We can barely see anything in front of our noses, but still continue to go on.
After a bit, we get out of the water and on solid ground. Kennedy continues to lead the way.
Kennedy walks over to the side of the path and feels for something. Then nods.
"We're getting closer," she says quietly. "Stay alert."
We walk to the end and see an echo flower.
It says, "Behind you."
The lights come back on to reveal Undyne standing there.
She starts to walk towards us and finally speaks to us directly.
"Seven," she says. "Seven human souls. With the power of seven human souls, our king...King Asgore Dreemur...will become a god. With that power, Asgore can finally shatter the barrier. He will finally take the surface back from humanity...And give them back the suffering and pain that we have endured...Understand, humans? This is your only chance at redemption. One of you, give up your soul...Or I'll tear it from your body."
I pull my spear out and hold it in front of me. "Over my dead body."
Undyne pulls out a spear as well.
Undyne starts to charge but I keep my stand.
Until a certain, yellow monster gets in the way.
"Undyne!" Monster Kid exclaims. "I'll help you fight!"
Monster Kid looks from us to Undyne, us to Undyne.
Until he says, "YO! You did it! Undyne is right in front of you! You've got front row seats to her fight!"
I give Monster Kid a 'duh' look.
He finally realizes. "...wait. Who's she fighting?"
Undyne puts the spear away and grabs Monster Kid, dragging him.
"H-hey!" Monster Kid exclaims. "You aren't gonna tell my parents about this, are you?"
I breath a sigh of relief and put my spear away.
I turn around to Kennedy. "Where to next?"
Kennedy pushes her way to the front and starts to lead once again, to another crystal path.
As we walk on it, more and more echo flowers appear in the water.
We jump into the water, swimming around the echo flowers.
We reach the end of the water and to a thin, wood bridge, overlooking darkness under.
"A-are you sure this is safe?" Lily asks.
I nod and extend my hand to her.
"P-please be careful," she says quietly, grasping my hand.
I smile at her. "I will."
We start to walk across the bridge. We are almost to the end when we hear a voice.
"Yo!"
Halfway across the bridge, Monster Kid stands, smiling at us.
"Yo, I know I'm not supposed to be here but..." Monster Kid starts. "I wanna ask you something. Man, I've never had to ask anyone this before...Umm...Yo...You guys are human, right? Haha."
I nod. "Right."
"Man! I knew it!" Monster Kid exclaims. "...well, I know it now, I mean...Undyne told me, um, 'stay away from that human.' So, like, umm...I guess that makes us enemies or something."
"Well," I say. "I mean, we don't have to be enemies. We are all friends with other monsters. Not Undyne...yet..."
"Good, because I kinda stink at that. Haha!" Monster Kid says. "But yo, say something mean so I can hate you? Please?"
I shake my head. "I will not. I don't care what Undyne says. I'll make friends with every monster down here if I want to."
"Yo, what?" Monster Kid asks. "So I have to do it? Here goes nothing...Yo, I...I hate your guts. Man I...I'm such a turd. I'm...I'm gonna go home now."
"Bye," I say to him.
He starts to run, but ends up on the edge of the bridge, clinging for his life.
"Yo, w-w-wait!" he exclaims. "Help! I tripped!"
Undyne suddenly appears before I can rush over to help Monster Kid.
I run over to Monster Kid and pull him up.
"You ok?" I ask.
Monster Kid nods, then says to Undyne, "Y...y...yo...dude...If...if y-you wanna hurt my friend...You're gonna have to get through me first."
Undyne backs up a step. Then another. Then completely walks off the bridge, out of sight.
"She's gone..." Monster Kid says. "Yo, you really saved my skin. Guess being enemies was just a nice thought, haha. We'll just have to be friends instead...man, I should REALLY go home. I bet my parents are worried sick about me! Later, dude!"
Monster Kid runs off, out of sight as well.
"I-I guess we go across," I say.
Everyone agrees and we walk across in silence and to the next room.
We approach a giant cave.
Undyne presides on the top rock.
"Seven," she says. "Seven human souls, and King Asgore will become a god. Six. That's how many we have collected thus far. Understand? Through your seventh and final soul, this world will be transformed. First, however, as is customary for those who make it this far...I shall tell you the tragic tale of our people. It all started, long ago...No, you know what?"
"SCREW IT!"
"WHY SHOULD I TELL THAT STORY WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE?!"
"NGAAAAHHHHHHH!"
Undyne's helmet is off but the rest of her armor remains equipped on her.
"YOU!"
"You're standing in the way of everyone's hopes and dreams!"
"Alphys's history books made me think humans were cool..."
"...with their giant robots and flowery swordswomen."
"BUT YOU?"
"You're just a coward!"
"Hiding behind that kid so you could run away from me again!"
I put a hand to my hip, anger bubbling within me.
Coward? COWARD?!
"Coward?" I ask her. "Huh. Says the monster that walked away when the kid stood up to you."
"WHAT?" Undyne demands.
My face is showing rage all over it. "You heard me."
"You know what would be more valuable to everyone?" Undyne asks. "IF YOU WERE DEAD!"
"That's right, humans," Undyne says. "Your continued existence is a crime! Your lives are all that stands between us and our freedom!"
"I said, you can't lay a finger on any of my friends," I say. "If you do, you will be sorry."
"Fine," Undyne says. "Then you end it with me, human. Right here, right now. After all, I just need one human soul. So step forward when you're ready. Fuhuhuhuh!"
We look around to see a yellow spark.
"I'll save," I say. "What time?"
Emily checks her watch. "Four thirty a.m."
I shake my head. "We have to leave."
"Save first," Kennedy says.
I touch the yellow spark and save really quick.
"Let's go," I say. "Same pairs."
We all agree and take our pairs to go back, knowing we will be very drowsy in the mid of the day.
