The Sundancing Timeline [The Bad Sanses and other Undertale AUs]

Chapter 5: Lost, Again

hoi! me is back! (again)

Sundancer POV

These guys love using portals. This time my head spun a little, and I stumbled. But Horror caught me and laughed loudly with a gruff. Then I felt his huge palm patting my head. 

"Heh, cute."

Dust scanned the place, then growled.

"We're in the wrong spot again, Killer!"

"Whoops." Killer shrugged, his grin never fading.

Whatever spot we were supposed to end up at, this clearly wasn't the correct one. I saw nothing but endless dark oak trees springing up into the endless sky. It was night here also, presumably. The misty, minty green clouds danced through and above the woods. The grass was the same colour as the mist and the mist was the same colour as the sky. All dark, gloomy and minty green. Crickets chirping was the only sound I heard other than Dust's grumbling and his stomping about.

"1 cAN't see!-!" Error squinted his eyes, pulling out his big, circular-rimmed glasses and putting them on. "I s-still can'T see-3-!"

"Me neither," I muttered, still leaning onto Horror's ribcage. His blood-soaked tank top was soft nonetheless. "Where are we?"

"Nightmare's regime. Somewhere middle of the woods. I can't really tell how close or far we might be from his castle."

"Wait wait- W-who's this "Nightmare"...?"

"Nightmare Sans, the king of negativity. He can sense all negative emotions. They fuel his power. He exists and will exist as long as negativity remains in this multiverse." Dust explained, still trying to look properly through the fog.

"He sounds... terrifying..."

"Chillax! He's just a pile of goop! A pile of goop with four tentacles! I swear he'll let you live once he figures out how adorable you are!" Horror pinched and squished my cheek, and I frankly didn't mind it.

"Okay, he's not that chill with new people, especially humans, pal." Killer scratched his head, looking up at Horror.

"He better be nice to her, she lets me pat her head!" He said while he petted my hair. "See?"

"Ugh... I can't figure out exactly where we are, could be in the same wrong spot as the last time... Tch, let's split up." Dust waved his hands as if clearing a table full of trashy ideas and unwanted stuff for his new plan to take place.

"Sounds fun! I'll take Error."

"W-what-? N-No!-! I d0n't- Wan-na go witH K-Kill3r..."

"Killer, go east. Let Error go south. I'll go west, it's not the safest place and I can't trust you idiots."

"Fiiiine...."

"ThAnk Asgore-e..-..."

"Horror, yer gonna take care of songbird?"

"Of course, of course! I'll take care of your- er, I mean, the songbird better than myself!"

Dust nodded once, pointing towards a rather grassy path. "Hm, then go north. Come back to this spot if you find something. And don't die." He commanded, lifting his hand towards a boulder in the distance. It began glowing purple and floated a few inches in the air. A small "Wow," left my mouth, as Dust placed it in the middle of our spot. "Teleport back here if you get lost."

At that, we dispersed, Killer sauntered towards the east, Error irritated scratched his head and went southwards. Dust waited for us to start walking before we did. I snatched the opportunity to ask. "W-why... What lies west?"
