"I... I wanna go find my family." Sans' face, if possible, pales further at my statement. 

"Haha...ha... ha.......... ha....." Sans looks terrified, and I see the shadow of a Gaster Blaster hang in the air for a second. Damn, poor skeleton must be scared if he's resorting to his Mom/Dad's weapon. (I seriously don't know if Gaster is male or female at this point, all I know is that some Author is Gaster and crazy and I don't know halp...) 

"F...F....Frisk... are y... y... you sure?" Alphys is freaking stuttering? Why are they so scared? 

"Yes. Yes I am, and I think I will go see them right now. I remember where we lived, and I feel like there is no time like the present, correct?" I sit up and swing my legs off of the bed.

"Uh, Frisk, um, I think... uh... Sans should... uh... go with you?" Alphys asks, and I shake my head in denial.

"Nope, I'll be fine without him. They're nice people. I was only having a nightmare because I realised just how much I missed them. I'll be perfectly okay." I beam at my skeleton friend and crazy scientist. 

"Oh, really? Phew, I was worried there for a moment Frisky." Sans grins at me, and I see the relief sweep through his system. Aw, he's so sweet and caring. I take a minute to adjust my body to being vertical, and then proceed to pull on my boots and coat. Sans and Alphys make several moves to stop me, but I insist on persisting in my venture. 

I amble out of our apartment and wave at the two figures in the window. I feel bad for lying to them, but I know this is a solo mission. I pull my hood over my face like Sans would and trudge towards the mountain, singing softly to reassure myself.

"I will fight for the place where I'm free, 
To live together and exist as me.
I will fight in the name of Rose Quartz,
And everything that she believed in.
I will fight for the world I was made in,
The Earth is everything I've ever known.
I will fight to be everything,
That everybody wants me to be when I'm grown.
The odds are against us, 
It won't be easy but we're not gonna do it alone...


We are the Crystal Gems, We'll always save the day,
And if you think we can't, We'll always find a way,
That's why the people of this world believe in,

Garnet, Amethyst, and Pearl, AND STEVEN!"

I giggle and, look up the winding path that leads to my old house. I notice the amount of weeds and look towards the old wooden house on the mountain.


And then I gasp.
