It's not surprising that I found myself awake before dawn; you could say I was a creature of habit hunting for our breakfast. I initially did this when I realized that this world was very different from my own, that the monsters did not starve, and that they were not still trapped underground. But what could I say? Habits die hard. That is when I found myself outside in the forest looking for something good to eat. When I hear something, I get low to the ground and stay quiet, waiting and watching for something to appear, it wasn't too long when a big beautiful Buck came from the bushes. My Appraisal triggered at that point, revealing all of the buck's weak spots for a quick kill, when I summoned my bone spear and fired it at the buck, it quickly hit its mark, and the buck died in the first shot.
I dusted my pants, grabbed the buck, heaving it over my shoulders, and started carrying it back to the house, not caring that I had blood on my clothes. I had the buck hanging in no time so I could rinse and drain the blood, guts, and other undesirables from him. My brother appeared out of nowhere with herbs in a bowl. A closer look revealed it was wheat, so he planned to make fresh dough. The fact that we prefer to make our fresh food than what they provide was not surprising to me the store-bought brand leaves us with a weird taste in our mouths, but then again, I know the truth about our Dirty Little Secret.
"Brother I'm done making the dough here can you start making the clay oven and I'll finish up gutting the buck for you while you work on the clay oven" When I handed him the knife, he used my appraisal to find clay in the ground. I found some fairly close to the house and started to dig some of them up. As soon as I got clay I had to think about what I'd need to make a clay oven and I realized that I'd need a lot more stuff before I started building the oven.
Mental checklist
Clay
Water
Rubble / hardcore
Wood shavings
A large smooth Rock for the oven base
Large wooden "beams" or bricks or stone for plinth
Wood for burning in the oven
It wasn't difficult to get the materials for the Clay Oven, but it would have been challenging to assemble it by hand. As luck would have it, I don't have to do this all I have to do is laying the materials together, clap my hands, and use a little bit of alchemy to make the oven. Since I already know the truth of human transmutation, I don't have to draw a transmutation circle each time I use alchemy, which was a good thing for me because I didn't want to lose a body part to it. Once the oven was assembled, I whistled to my brother to let him know that the job was done, "Wow, that was fast brother I am not surprised that you are getting more and more proficient with your abilities, could you set up a table and chairs for everyone to sit and eat breakfast I'm surprised no one else was up this early yet."
When I finished setting up the table and chairs, I began cooking with the help of my brother. We were so busy preparing the food that we overlooked that Papyrus, Edge, Razz, and blueberry came outside when they smelled it.
"WOWWEE!" Papyrus shouted which startled me, I nearly dropped the plate of fresh cook buck steaks, luckily for me, my brother's reflexes were sharp he managed to catch the plate of fresh cook buck steaks and put it on the table. I was embarrassed I nearly dropped the food and that was an unspoken rule do not waste food, my brother saw me looking down in shame and patted my arm, telling me it wasn't my fault and it didn't matter since the food hasn't been wasted.
"Good morning everyone! Breakfast is almost ready, and Papyrus, please don't startle my brother, you almost make him drop the food, and back in our Snowden, there was so little food that everyone upholds one major rule: don't waste food."
my brother told Papyrus, Sheepish, and rub the back of his skull and apologize to me for startling me. "HEHE SORRY FOR STARTLING YOU SPICES." As I whistled and clicked, my brother translated for me, "He accepts your apology and wishes to apologize in advance if he doesn't speak to you, it's not that he cannot talk, it's just that he has difficulty speaking." Cinnamon told them.
"Why does he find it difficult to speak." Edge in a gruff voice? My brother flinched after Edge asked that question, so I placed my hand on his shoulder and nodded, telling them it was okay to tell them. After a moment of hesitation, my brother let out a sigh and began to tell my story, "it all started when Alphys called my brother to meet her about something, so I followed him. Then I saw Alphys bash my brother's skull with her battle-ax and forcefully try to remove his magic to fix the Underground's core. When I tackled her to the ground and picked up my brother and ran for it once in the safety of our house I checked his injury and it was very serious his skull is cracked, so I attended to him to see if he would wake up, but when he did he wasn't the same as before. As a result of his amnesia, my little brother has forgotten that I am his brother. Everything from his past has been taken from him, including the ability to speak at times." Feeling guilty for reminding my brother of my past, Papyrus Edge blueberry Razz pulled him aside and asked if I had still forgotten some things. It is difficult for me to regain my memory at times, my brother said with a cheerful demeanor.
Eventually, the others woke up and found their way outside because the smell of food lured them out, where they sat down at the table. Destiny becomes very excited when she walks outside, making her practically throw herself into the chair next to Red. After Cinnamon and Papyrus placed the plates, Destiny quickly grabbed the second bottle of honey that appeared on the table after the first went to Stretch and offered it to me. I don't understand why everyone is looking at me while Destiny holds it to me like they are expecting something. I'm having buck steak for lunch, why would I need honey? "I thought that you might like some honey since Stretch likes it so much and you're a version of him," Destiny explains with a sweet smile, I look up at Stretch with a confused eye light.
He locks eye lights with me then takes a huge gulp of the honey in his hands, I blink taken aback. He just DRANK HONEY! Like it was water! What? Red chuckles drawing my eye light back to him. "never tried drinking a condiment Spice?" He takes a long swig of the mustard in his hands and I blanches making him laugh louder, in the corner of my eye I see everyone smile even Edge smiling into his coffee as he watches red. Destiny draws my attention again by leaning in closer and shoving the honey into my phalanges. I let out a small sigh and uncap it, and Destiny purrs, which makes me want to try it less, but everyone is looking at me expectantly, even my brother, who I noticed was quietly growling at Destiny, so I uncap it and try it out. It's extremely sweet which I seem to like but something about it tastes so wrong. This is when my body started to seize up. I started to cough uncontrollably enough for me to fall off my chair.
Cinnamon POV
After my brother fell off his chair I quickly got up and ran towards him. A mix of an allergic reaction and a seizure shook my brother, "Oh, don't you dare die on me brother," I said quietly as I held him still so he wouldn't hurt himself without thinking. I used my magic to summon a bottle of orange and red mixed I looked at the label and saw it was the hot sauce I forced it down his throat, I was hoping it would work. He gagged and he still had body spasms until his bones started to turn red and smoke started to come out of his non-existent ears and he let out a scream that turn into a Roar of fire came out of his mouth. This shocked everyone.
Not a moment later my brother jumped up to his feet and said for the first time in many years since I heard his voice "That's a spicy meatball." he said with a raspy hoarse voice. My brother and I fell to the ground laughing as I shed tears and tackled him in a hug. It didn't even cross my mind that Dust and Mars were right behind my brother to see if he was alright, all I cared about was hearing my brother's voice again.
Small-time skip after everyone finished eating their breakfast
It's something about that human that doesn't sit right with me after that honey incident. I kept my brother away from that human. As she tries to get closer to me and my brother, she becomes more desperate. In addition, I noticed Mars and Dust were following my brother around like lost puppies. I find it very adorable I'm pretty sure they're soul mates but I am not just going to let them have my brother without a fight they will have to prove they are worthy of him.
When I heard a beeping sound from my watch, I pulled it out and looked at the time. It was time for our training session. "Come on bro, it's time for our daily training session. I promise you'll teach me some new moves" if I wasn't looking at my brother I wouldn't notice his eager face as he jumped away from Mars and Dust and landed right next to me without hesitation, I jumped on his back clinging to him because I knew he was extremely fast when he wanted to run and I didn't want to be blown off his back like last time, that's when I felt my brother's magic pouring into his legs in an instant we took off like a blur.
Red POV
"Did anyone else see that the fuckin' ashtray 2.0 took off faster than my brother or blueberry, and when he's high on sugar, I thought he was the lazy one?" As I looked at the others with a shocked expression on my face. "BROTHER, I THINK WE UNDERESTIMATE SPICE'S ABILITIES. HE MAY SEEM LAZY, BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT HE OR HIS BROTHER IS CAPABLE OF. I AM VERY INTERESTED IN WHAT TRAINING THEY ARE UNDERTAKING. I WILL GO FOLLOW THEM." At that moment, my brother took off in the same direction as cinnamon and spice, and not long after creampuff blueberry and the little Tyrant followed him yelling at him to slow down.
With a huff of annoyance, I glanced at my cream puff version of myself stretch, Razz, Jupiter, Mars, Dust, and our so-called soulmate. "Welp got to go find out what the boss is so interested in." I'd like to tag along to find cinnamon and spice not caring if the others followed or not.
