In this world, it is Consume...or Be Starved and Consumed (Axetale Aliza x OC)

Junkyard

Sans and Aliza had teleported to a safe area within the Waterfalls. Aliza than looked around, and she saw that they are in an empty part of the Waterfalls, as she looks around, and felt immense stress at what had happened. Her childhood friend, she had been separated from him once again. And this time, it is her father that had to do it. Her father had to separate her from who she had grown up with. Aliza turns to Sans and she than spoke out to him.

"Why...why didn't you let me chase him?! We could have brought him back to us, back to me!!"

Sans than spoke back to Aliza.

"not when that weed is present."

Aliza was confused, as she than spoke out to Sans.

"What do you mean?"

Sans sighed, as he rubbed the side of his skull, as he than spoke out to her.

"that weed, that you have seen...he is the strongest monster in the entire underground, due to the fact that he has absorbed human souls. because of this, if we had tried to chase him, we would have been consumed by him, and your soul would have made him stronger, had he consumed it."

Aliza was horrified, as she than spoke out to her father.

"You mean...I would have been no longer reunited with Samael?"

Sans nodded, as he than spoke out.

"yes, and even worse, is that it would make that weed strong enough to chase samael, and he would have been-"

But before Sans could finish speaking, both him and Aliza heard a loud scream.

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"

This made Aliza's eyes widened, as she recognized that voice. She turns to the direction of where it had came from, her eyes widened, in immense horror, as she shrieked out in fear for the person that had screamed, horrified.

"Samael!"

She turned around, and rushed back to find Samael, as Sans spoke out.

"aliza, wait-graaahh!!!"

Sans shouted in frustration, before he than grabbed his axe, and runs as fast as he can so that he can protect Aliza from the dangers that are going to occur when she goes to the dangers within the Waterfalls. He does not like it, but since Aliza's inherited her mother's brave personality and her care for others, even if it is now twisted, he needs to make sure that she is okay.

Aliza runs fast, as she spoke out.

"Don't worry, Samael! I'm coming!!"

With Samael...

"How, how can this be?! It didn't eat any tainted meat at all!! How can I be infected??!!!"

Samael shouted, as he held his head, as Chara looks down at Samael, as she than spoke out to him.

"Who says that you need to eat the infected meat in order to become infected yourself?"

Samael looks at Chara, as she than continued to speak out.

"The Hunger is everywhere, and it is even present in the very air, the moment that you had breathed inside of the Underground, you are already infected from the start. And it becomes more and more noticeable, as you get closer and closer to the source of the Hunger."

Samael was horrified, as he stepped backwards, before he than sits down onto the ground, as he than spoke out.

"N...no, this can't...can't be. I'm...I can't be...I don't want to be one of them..."
