Crap

You rub your head wondering how you appeared in this, cavern of sorts. Your vision also seems to be blurred? Almost unconsciously you pull out your 'borrowed' phone and call the emergency line.

. . . Nothing but garbage noise.

The last thing you remember was getting chalk for Ms Alphys with Susie and Kris. Shortly after your flashback you soon realise that you have got to get out of here.

 After a small walk you notice your badass attire. You have a black military suit with pouches for different types of items and your blurred vision is caused by the gas mask on your head, strange. You feel a combat knife in your pocket and a trauma kit hangs by your side and a holster with no gun on the other. Very strange indeed.

After a few more minutes of walking you notice Kris checking piles of, chalk?

You didn't feel like disturbing them, so you kept to the shadows, as you always do.

 After a while of spectating the search Kris finally finds a purple dinosaur. "Hey don't scare me like that dumbass!" She shouts "Unless you WANT to get clocked in the face, heh" Quickly changing her surprised attitude, she decides on the option to follow Kris.

For like 3 seconds before she runs off.

"Unlucky mate" You say creeping out of your hiding place. They don't move, stagger or flinch at all, their emotionless face is, creepy to say the least. "Well I have no idea where to go, soooo I'm just gonna follow you alright?" After a quick nod from Kris they start walking, very, very slowly. Now you know why Susie ditched them.

After a while with a very, VERY awkward silence. You see Susie again 

"Hey Kris, and other guy, there's someone up there waving at us"

"Heh that's cool" you reply completely oblivious to what is coming next.

 The monster throws a spade projectile right at you narrowly missing your arm. You look at it in surprise and can only shout three words.

"S*** GUYS, RUN!" 

Multiple spade like bullets come flying at you, threatening severe lacerations. Dodging and weaving was your primary defence back at Hometown when some 'individuals' decided to throw rocks at you for being human. Not your fault for getting dumped in the woods and having to survive by yourself. Your legs were burning but you had to push through. Adrenaline didn't kick in until halfway through the chase.

"Hey down here!" Susie shouted at the edge of a waterfall.

With little hesitation you slide into the murky 'water', though whatever was trying to harm you wasn't gonna stop there and more spades came from the side. Unprepared you suffer from a minor cut to the arm, sure it stung like hell but you've had worse things happen before. Kris slides down next to you, you give a reassuring thumbs up before getting slashed across the cheek by a bullet, Kris just looks at you, blankly. 

You swear that they were happier the day before.

"Damn" You land on the cold hard surface below. What ever attacked you stopped, maybe to reload, or to simply toy with you. Though your thoughts are cut short when Susie mocks you for being bad at dodging. 

"(Jerk)" You almost silently mutter, not wanting to aggravate the 1.85 meter behemoth standing in front of you. 

"Anyway I think this closet is broken" Susie says confused about the small town and giant castle ahead.

"How did you figure that out?" You say with hint of sarcasm.

"Let's just go" she mutters.

The town seems abandoned with locked stores and houses with a large, dark, imposing castle looming above them. You could imagine a happy community with markets, drinks, food. Sadly all that remains are the quiet, cobwebbed filled houses standing defeated in the dark depressing town.
