       Bonbon stared intently at the ghost in front of her. Cracked her fingers and slowly moved her hands closer to the ghost's body."Yes, finally!" Cheered Flowey as Bonbon painfully slow reached towards the ghost.

"Tickle tickle tickle!"

"What!" Flowey felt so stupid, how could he expect anything else from this idiot child! Of course she would just randomly go up to a ghost and tickle him awake. It was going to take more than the Ruins to make her do what he wishes.

      The ghost was surprised to find that the mysterious child did not harm him or walk away, like everyone else would have. "I...I'm sorry....did...am I blocking your way?"

"It's ok, you looked really comfortable laying there."

"Oh.....maybe ...would you like to pass? Probably....I'll get out of your way" said the solemn ghost. But before he could fade away, Bonbon called out,

"Wait! Please don't leave!"

"Oh...uh...do you need something?"

"Yes, um...I get lost easily so can you join me for a bit, my name is Bonbon. What's yours?" she said while holding out her hand towards him.

"Napsablook." He reached over and held her hands. He never meet anyone who wanted his company before. Taken back by her request, the three went on exploring the Ruins.

      Bonbon notice that the Ruins wasn't as big as she would have hoped. For she soon came back to the room with the bed of yellow flowers.

"Blooky? Is this all there is of the underground?"

"Bl...Blooky!" Stuttered the ghost, "oh, only my cousin used to call me that."

"I'm sorry, should I call you something else since we're friends?"

"No...no its fine...I... like it..." Napsablook stuttered,"...um...friend.." he whispered as he started to blush. He didn't have friends, so it was nice that he made one so quickly after just meeting her. "About the underground....there's more. But you would have to go pass the door that Toriel has in her basement. I...I...would take you but....I doubt you can go through walls."

"No, that's OK. Thank you" She said smiling warmly at her new friend, "also, thank you again for this piece of candy!" Napsablook had given her a piece when they passed a room that had a pedestal in the middle of it. Since the bowl containing the candy was placed on said pedestal and Bonbon being a little too short to reach it, Napsablook had reached a piece for her. Napsablook felt warm, for he would never had guessed that coming down to the ruin, would lead him into having a new friend. He gave her a small smile and helped her get back to Toriel's house. When they arrived they said there goodbyes and he faded off. Before Bonbon arrived home, she decided to 'SAVE' at the star that was near by.

It was too late, or so she thought, since she heard, "MY CHILD! Where have you hidden!" It made Bonbon giggle to see Toriel's so fluffed out from worry. Upon hearing her laughter, Toriel turned around and saw the small child and Flowey standing by the doorway.

"Hee.e.hehe..." Flowey coughed, "so uh, we're...home?" Before her stood Bonbon, her dress covered in dirt and rips and she herself was littered in scars and dried blood.
