Cycle Reborn Once More

[2] Foresight.

Be curious, not judgemental.

Y/N's POV:

THE COLD breeze continues to hit my skin, winter is kicking in the cold. Sooner, there might be a blizzard hitting in the Starlight Isles. It's strange how a summery AU can snow so coldly, must it be one of the deities? I clutch the blanket and rubbed my hands to create heat, doing this technique will lessen the cold entering your body. Probably should get water.

As I got up, I was in a trance. Everything was so cold, so numb, so familiar.. yet I can't make out the surroundings.

Brr.. so cold, someone mumbled. They were walking to the kitchen, possibly to escape? Or find wood to keep their fireplace going. The person looks so similar, is that me? After the person shortly arrive at the kitchen, they tripped due to the trap placed on the kitchen floor it appears to be ice since it's quite slippery. An ear-splitting scream was overheard by the person before cracking their skull open, blood spilling all over the floor. The scene was quite gory as Sans immediately barged the door down and went downstairs, smelling something weird he calls out for the name similar to yours. 'DAJANA! ARE YOU?-' Once he opens the kitchen lights my rotting body was sprawled across the floor, the crimson-red substance streaming slowly on the floor. 'PAPYRUS! DAJANA IS..' the older brother was nowhere to be found in his room, sans hears footsteps downstairs as Papyrus had gotten up. 'PAPYRUS.. WHY ARE YOU DRAGGING DAJANA'S BODY?' 'Sans..?' the older brother muttered, looking at the silhouette of his younger brother on the stairs quickly going down. Papyrus stabbed his little brother, whispering the same thing.

'dOnT wOrRy BrO, eVeRyThInG wIlL eNd SoOn...'

Okay, what in the actual fuck is that? I'm just- no, I'm not going back into the goddamn kitchen. I return back to the couch, draping the warm blanket over my body again. I was about to doze off when I heard the same thing again.

"is that human dead?"

"unfortunately nah. Seems they're smarter than we think it is."

"ugh. We need a single determination soul that can withstand at least controlling my [REDACTED.EXE.FILENOTFOUND.] body."

"Father is waiting for [REDACTED.EXE.FILENOTFOUND.]'s return, I'm awaiting for their return as well."

"Can't ya just go to another positive AU that can withstand the control?"

"We've tried already. HeavenTale doesn't have a match since the positivity is too high."

"Oh, tell me more."

"Basically, the original UnderSwap is the perfect candidate for it. It's in the middle of all the AUs, and last time it worked but the determination soul died down quicker than expected."

"So that's why yer findin' a vessel here?"

"Exactly.. I wanna relive those moments once more but with them."

*Sigh* "I know kiddo, I'll help you out."

"R-really?"

"Yup. If this trap doesn't work then I'll have to take everything by force."

"You mean drive this human to insanity, kill everyone here and turn it into a genocide route?"

"..as much as I hate it, yes."

"I assumed that. But anyhow, I have to get back now. Blue can wake up anytime soon."

"Aye, kid. See ya."

The front door slammed with a large shadow looming over the door. They sighed out loud, sparking a lighter. They shuffle and get up, walking upstairs back to Papyrus's room..? Who was that? It's best if I don't bring that up later in the morning, would also be better to leave early. I got up and stretched myself, getting ready for the day. I grabbed the bag Asgore had packed for me, choosing another sweater. This time it's a lavender one, quite oversized as well. I yawned as I zipped the zipper and placed the bag on my back, I do recall the Gold's and pies of different flavours packed in this bag. I'll eat that on the way. I approach the front door and turned the doorknob, it made a creaky noise and slammed it immediately. As I set foot on the cold snow, it reminded me of the first time I've seen snow when I was a child. I noticed it was early in the morning, yet Blue still didn't wake up from his slumber. Usually he'd wake up already and take morning jogs, now that is suspicious. I didn't quite mind it and continued on in my tracks before I was stopped by.. Bill.

"What in the devil's hell are you doing here?"

I questioned the skeleton counting his last Gold's. I sighed and nudged the skeletons shoulder, he froze and look straight at me. Once he saw my figure he exhaled deeply and quickly for up, fixing his suit.

"What're you doing here?"

"Figured it might be safe to count my last gold's."

I rolled my eyes as he responded with unease filling his tone.

"C'mon, what's up with the suit?"

"Gradient hosted a meeting for the council about some matters, important matters."

"Well, that's.."

I trailed off as I notice strings, blue strings spreading across the sky. I patted the skeletons shoulders and pointed at the strings hogging the sky with.. a gaster blaster floating. I quickly went on to hide at the back of the skeleton as Bill chuckled.

"Well, Error had trouble findin' the lil' guy all-night since Gradient brought you up."

I sighed as I got up, the snow crunching below my boots.

"Can I join that meeting?"

"Huh, yeah su- WHAT?!"

He yelled out loud like a maniac, I stared wide-eyed at the skeleton's response.

"Alright let me explain."

"Apparently, Gradient has been suspicious of humans and me of course. He thinks that I'm plotting to resurrect you, that's why he is in pursuit on me. He knows what deal I struck with you and he doesn't know I am the cause of your death. So now, the topic of this meeting is about me and you."

He summarized everything, wow apparently Gradient has been making moves on the skeleton years after my death. I was beyond flabbergasted..

The more we do, the more we can do.

I just suddenly woke up from my sleep and found myself writing this whilst asleep. Am I on auto-pilot?

Peace out, Laz!
