Chapter 3: Fallen

Frisk quickly jumped into the mouth of the hole, screaming their lungs out as they fell. The wind blinded them as they barely saw the bottom; A small bed of golden flowers bloomed below them. They hoped it was enough to break their fall, but just as they were close to the ground

They blacked out.

***

Frisk's P.O.V.

"--isk" I heard small whimpers as I tried to open my eyes, my throat hurt like hell and I meant it, it burned to speak.

"Frisk..." I heard it more clearly to know that it was Chara, which made me worry since they were sobbing.

I slowly fluttered my eyes open, seeing the blinding light of the small rays of sunlight above me.

"C-Chara?" I hacked as I speak, 'okay no more speaking I got that'.

"Frisk! Thank God you're finally awake! I was beginning to worry you won't wake up! "
Chara sobbed. I patted their hand to assure them I was fine.

{Where are we?} I signed.

Chara took a moment to register what I signed and then gave a sad smile.

"Welcome to the Ruins Frisk..."
Chara said softly.

I sat there, shocked out of my wits.

{What do you mean??} I basically almost flailed my hands, making it harder to understand what I was trying to say but Chara understood it anyways.

"Those wolves would've outran you sooner or later, this was the only thing I could do to ensure your survival — But... " Chara looked down guiltily,  as if the several green hues of the thousands of grass below were more interesting than what was actually happening around her.

"B-but what?" I spoke again, my hoarse voice echoing through the walls of the vast cavern, the question with it begging to be answered.

"But.. W-we're trapped in the realm of monsters... " Chara said, barely audible but still loud enough for me to hear in the thick silence.

But that's when I realized.

"MONSTERS?!" I screamed, well I tried to, the pain became even more unbearable as I suddenly coughed out blood.

"Easy there frisk... " Chara said, guilt even more clearer in their eyes.

As I finally stopped coughing I managed to calm myself,I was sure there weren't real monsters, I was so sure that they were just myths and rumors, But as I saw the serious look Chara gave to me I actually come to see that 'Chara's not lying' i said to myself.

I came to a full realization and looked down. Scrapes and scars cover my body and one of my legs limp as I move it; a sickening feeling of dread overcame me and I gave out a broken laugh.

'Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!'

I stared at the gaping chasm above, trickles of sunlight meet my eyes and I felt the homesickness already manifesting in me. There was no going back that was sure, the walls were too steep and the height so high; not to mention that if ever I would fall down from that height there will be no guarantee if I will survive a second time.

{What do we do next?}

"Well, there's no way else to go than–" Chara pointed at the dark hallway in front of us, an uneasy smile suddenly gracing their face
"–forward"

I looked at the unfamiliar hallway that seemed to beckon the two of us with a charm that felt so otherworldly that it sent a shiver down my spine.

I gulped.

Suddenly being eaten by wolves didn't seem much like a bad idea.
