The Aftermath

Phil's POV
TW: Injuries, Mentions of Explosions, Mentions of D#ath

My head was pounding, everything was black and I wasn't sure why, where was I? What had happened? I tried to remember how i got here but I couldn't and my head hurt when i tried to think. I remember a loud noise and someone calling for me, who was it? What was that noise? Why did my head hurt so much? Come to think of it my whole body hurt, especially my back, I felt something tight warpped around my chest and back and tried to move against the uncomfortableness but couldn't. What was going on?!

I tried to open my eyes but it was hard, I could hear birds chirping softly in the distance but it was muffled...was I...was I dead..? How did this happen? I tried to remember again but my head just hurt worse but one thing did come to me...Wilbur, was he there? Was he okay?! Why did I see him? Was it my voice again?

I had to know, was my son okay? I attempted to open my eyes again and slowly they began to open but I quickly shut them from the sudden blinding light that met them. Feeling was slowly starting to return to me other than just the pain and I realized I was laying down on something soft, was I in bed? I attempted to open my eyes again the light was less painful this time and I slowly and painfully turned my head to look around I saw a blurry figure sitting next to me.

"mhn..? Will..?" I asked weakly, I felt slight hope but also dread, wa she okay? or were we both..gone..

The figure perked up and turned to me and it slowly started to clear up and I saw that the figure had long pink hair and soft red eyes..

"..you awake?", he asked softly, his voice quite as if he was afraid he would disturb me, I recognized the voice it was Techno..I was thrilled to see him.

I blinked for a moment, "Oh,..Techno.", my voice sounded much less impressed and unhappy than I meant it too, i was extremely happy but I was just too tired and weak to put any emotion into my voice, his eyes lightened and I knew he would understand.

"How ya feeling buddy?", he asked gently with a polite voice that he only ever used around me, he turned towards me fully and gently ran a hand through my hair. I turned my head again wincing slightly in pain and he gently removed his hand and watched me in concern.

"What..what happened..?", I asked him trying to sit myself up but he gently pushed me back down.

"Woah there, don't push yourself take your time,", I nodded and once again winced at the throbbing pain in my head and back Techno noticed this and sighed and began talking, "You and Ranboo where in the mines when the part of it you were in exploded.." he explained slowly.

I made a soft 'oh' sound as he continued talking looking at me with a gentle and sympathetic look, "you...you got caught in the explosion..and the cave collapsed..you almost died Phil..", his voice was weak and I saw how worried and upset he was even though he was trying to hold his feelings back.

Some of the memories began to come back to me, I remembered the mining trip and the weird sounds I heard, I remembered the figure..Wilbur..it couldn't have been him..it had to be the voice, it had been following me already that day. Had it left me to die? No..if I died it died, was it trying to warn me and just didn't make it? I couldn't make sense of it in my head but my thoughts soon landed to Ranboo and I jolted up in fear. Ignoring the stinging pain in my back and the tightness of my banadages.

Techno straightened up trying to make me sit back down but I resisted, "is Ranboo okay?!" I asked in panic staring at him with wide eyes.
