TW//SWEARING

Reader's POV:

"WAKE UP BITCH!!"

I opened my eyes and sat up. I could here Tommy on the other side of the door, yelling at me to get up.

"Alright, alright, I'm up now shut up." I said, getting out of bed.

I heard him running down the hall and down the stairs. I chuckled and got dressed, think about the past ten months. Well, ten months here at least. According to the others, time moves slower here then in the Overworld, but we don't know how slow.

I walked down the stairs and into the kitchen. I saw Tommy, Wilbur and Schlatt sitting at the table. My first day in the after life I punched him in the face, he agreed that he deserved that.

I sat down at the table and started with some small talk with Tommy, a few minutes later Phil came running down the stairs holding a book.

I raised an eyebrow.

"You seem excited, what's up?" 

"I think I found a way to get back to the overworld." he said.

My eyes widened, we could never find a way to leave the afterlife, yes there was Ghostbur but Wilbur explained to us that Ghostbur was basically like a doppelganger.

I stood up.

"Well, how do we do it?" I asked.

"Ok, first we need to go outside, and another thing; I don't know if it would actually work or not." 

He gestured us to follow as he ran out the door almost leaving us in the dust. 

All of us, other than Schlatt, went after him and soon we were somewhere in the woods.

"Phil, where are we going?" I asked.

"Some ruins."

"And you're sure we're not lost?" I asked.

"Positive."

"Last time you said that, we had to call Techno to get us out." I pointed out.

He was silent for the rest of the journey, his nose buried in the book, following the map in it.

Soon we came to what looked similar to the Stonehenge but slightly different. In the center of it was a circle of runs.

"Is this the place?" Wilbur asked.

"I think so yes."

"You THINK!?" I asked.

"I'm positive." He said, looking at the map again.

"How do you know this will work?" 

"I don't." 

"Then why are we doing this?" I asked.

"Experimentation." He replied, examining the runes.

"How are you our father again?" I asked.

"I raised you and I saved you on multiple occasions and you're doubting me know?" He asked, standing up.

"True, true." I said.

"Ok, if we do this right then we can get back to the overworld." Phil said.

"What happens if we do it wrong?" Tommy asked.

"I don't know." Phil said.

"Ok, so we need the four of us to stand on one of the runes." He said, standing on a random rune.

Tommy, Wilbur and I did the same.

"Ok, and then I guess we just focus our energy." Phil said.

"What energy? I'm tiered." Wilbur said.

"Did you pull another all nighter?" Phil asked.

"Maybe..." He replied quietly.

"Ha, weakling." I said.

"What did you call me?" Wilbur asked, turning towards me.

"I called you a weakling." I said.

"I'm not a weakling." He said.

"You look like you're about to pass out." I pointed out.

"So you're saying that you've stayed up all night?" He shot back.

"HA, I've stayed up three nights in a row." I said.

We all sat in silence for a moment...

"So how the fuck do we do this?" Tommy asked.

"I have no idea." I said.

Then the runs started to glow, each one a different color, green for Phil, red for Tommy, a yellow for Wilbur, and (f/c) for me.

"What's going on?" I asked.

The glow grew more intense and soon it was a blinding white light. I closed my eyes and waited for it to stop, and as quick as it came, it was gone. 

I opened my eyes and looked at the familiar scene before me. We were right outside L'manburg.

We were home.
