This is Something

Chapter One: Awakening

???: "Am I, finally dead? Did they actually do it? Am I... finally free?" 

As the world faded into existence around her, she found herself not in her room, nor in a hospital. But in a long familiar looking corridor. 

???: "Where am I? Is this like a gate way to heaven or something?" 

?!?: "Um, sorry it's nothing like that..." 

Looking around quickly to find the origin of the voice, she finds nothing but on empty room. 

???: "Who's there, where are you?" 

?!?: "My name is Frisk, and you're kind of in my body." 

???: "Wait, Frisk? Wait I'm WHERE?!" 

Checking herself over they were indeed no longer the same person, although they were still a girl. Meanwhile as she checked herself over, a very familiar duo were waiting in the throne room. 

Papyrus: "Sans, do you they the human will change?" 

Sans: "I don't know Paps, this is like the 900th reset. I mean it is weird you're still alive, I mean..." 

Papyrus: "You don't have to explain brother, I understand what you mean." 

As the two waited, Frisk was asking the mystery girl a lot of personal questions. That they simply ignored to look around, they seemed to be in awe of everything, walking around as if everything was so new, yet so familiar. They were in the final corridor right before the throne room, behind them was the Judgement Hall, in front the Throne room. Walking back to Judgement Hall they looked around a lot, touching every pillar with a child like wonderment. Confused as to what was taking the human so long, Sans and Papyrus peered into the hall to see what was going on. Their confusion was multiplied when they saw whom appeared to be Frisk, gently rubbing the marble column.

Papyrus: "Brother, is that the same human?" 

Sans: "Heck if I know bro, they're acting really weird." 

???: "Hey..." Hearing that the brothers ducked back to hide, but the human wasn't talking to them 

???: "Frisk, where is everyone?" 

She got no answer, concerned they ran deeper into the underground, only to find pile after pile of Dust. Obvious evidence of a genocide run. Punching the wall much to hard she ends up not only popping a finger out of place, but scraping up her hand on the rough stone. 

Frisk: "Ow... are you okay?" 

??!: "They just fucked up your hand! Aren't you upset?" Frisk: "Chara, you're still here?" 

Chara: "No this is someone else. My name is Shit sherlock first name, No." 

Frisk: "Ha, ha."

Popping her finger back in place she tried to pull up the menu, with no real luck. After a few minutes they punched the wall again, this time a lot softer than before.

???: "How do I reset?! I don't want this! I DON'T WANT EVERYONE DEAD!!!" 

Everyone was shocked to hear this, this whole time the Player was basically an evil thrill seeking killer. But this one was completely different, she marveled at everything, was entranced by everything, saw everything with awe, as if everything was new. She was filled with an unusual child like wonder that felt so genuine. With this both Sans and Papyrus stepped out of hiding to see this new Player. 

Sans: "Hey kid, couldn't help but over hear ya."

???: "Sans, and Papyrus?! Oh my gosh this is amazing! I've wanted to meet you both so much!" 

With literal tears in their eyes this kid was clutching their chest, it was an indescribable scene. This player, this kid, was so happy to see people that they didn't even know. Who were from a video game no less. In all honesty it made the situation a bit uncomfortable, something didn't seem right to everyone. Yet no one wanted to ask about the elephant in the room, how did this kid get here, what happened to her, and who are they? The girl had a very heavy lingering air of misery surrounding them. It was an almost sickening feeling, one that everyone there could sense.

Sans: "So kid... you serious about resetting? Cause I have to say that sounds really good."

???: "Yes, I'm serious, tell me how please."

Sans: "Before that, someone wants to talk to you."

Grabbing Papyrus's hand him and Sans spun together like a whirlwind, and in a flash and black and white, they fused together forming Gaster. Who simply smiled looking down at the short human child. Looking at the girl for a split second he saw them glitch out and turn into a skeleton with Frisk's hair.

Gaster: "Hmm, more interesting then I was expecting. Hello child, what is your name?"

[Name the Fallen _____]

???: "My... name is Sam..."

Gaster: "Greetings Sam, it is a pleasure to meet you. I thought, seeing as you have no experience with this world. I should teach you the ends and outs of it, so I will be training you for a while." 

Sam: "I don't under....st..."

In an instant, her vision blurred Frisk's body fell to the floor, before Frisk once more took control. 

Frisk: "How did you do that?"

Gaster: "Simple, I took her soul and transferred it to a vessel I have in the Void. As I said I will be training her. Do tell Sans and Papyrus not to worry, they maybe made of me, but they are not me after all."

Frisk nodded, and as Gaster vanished, the skeleton brothers reappeared in his place. After an explanation, Frisk was the one to reset, and once more they found themselves falling into the underground. Though this time things were different, no player as in control of Frisk, Chara was already awake and could talk to Frisk. And there was a nagging feeling in the back of their head, as though a piece of their soul was missing. Pushing the feeling aside the pair walked into the room with Flowey.

Flowey: "So you chickened out in the end huh? Then again, it wasn't really you or Chara pushing the genocide, was it?"

Frisk: "No it wasn't, I'd never want that! I don't even want to see..."

Clinching their fist Frisk let out a small hiss of pain, looking at her hand they noticed they hit it in the fall. Another change from last time, it wasn't broken but the bone was probably bruised and there was a huge cut on the back.

Flowey: "Here, let me actually heal you this time. This run feels to different to stick to the scripts anyway."

Before Frisk could protest, Flowey shot green 'friendliness pellets' at her, actually healing her wounds. Both Frisk and Chara were shocked at this as Flowey just left, not to long after they left into the ruins. Doing the first puzzle, they entered the ruins main structure, as they entered the Hallway Frisk's vision blurred, and they collapsed. Not long after Sam once more awoke in control of Frisk's body. Looking around in a complete haze, everything felt off, something was wrong. While she was in control, she was unable to move. The extreme exhaustion from leaving the Void, forced her in and out of consciousness as she lay there. The last thing she saw before passing out completely was Toriel walking up to her.
