Fear… Fear of being alone forever, was one of the many fears people had. But of all people, you never thought you would be alone. You had never thought of that possibility. And to be completely honest, it was starting to scare you. You never really thought being alone, would be a bad thing. But that was because you had always had Sun and Moon by your side. But now, you couldn’t reach them, no matter what you tried to do.

        You wanted your mew guardians back. You wanted your skeleton and monster friends back. You didn’t want to be left alone. It was sending a shiver up your spine, thinking of being alone forever. In complete darkness… Darkness… It was sending you back, making you remember when you first entered the void, where you saved the Gasters.

‘Darkness. Darkness everywhere, not a spot of color. No light. No color. No sound. No people. No monsters. No Guardians. No friends. No enemies. No one… Not a single glitch. Not a dream. Not a night. Not a speck of magic. Not a single sign of living life. Nothing was under you either.

Just floating… Nothing holding you up. Just the endless looking black ceiling of wherever you were. You opened your mouth, but closed it, you could breathe, that was good. But you had no clue where you were. You moved yourself, so you were kinda standing floating thing. Your purple eyes glazed over the endless black void- void… You were in a void! You remembered Ink and Error said they were from the Anti-Void… But the Anti-Void or AV was all white, not all black.

        You stared at the endless black void around you. You reached your hand out, feeling to see if there was anything around you. You found nothing. Taking in a deep breath, you tried to control you floating but it seemed hard but not impossible. Finally your markings and eye started to glow purple, and before you knew it, you were now floating like you were standing up. It felt like something was under you, but you could go below that.’

        Looking back at the memory made you shiver slightly. You could see your markings giving off a dull purple. You had a feeling that it was because of how nervous you were getting right now. You could feel the fear coming off you in waves, something you were trying not to do currently. You closed your purple eyes, taking in a deep breath. You felt scared, for the first time, you felt actually alone.

        You felt yourself sink to your knees. No… This wasn’t how it was suppose to be! You were suppose to be with your friends, the people who cared for you…. Or… Was this fate? Were you destined to be alone forever? Were you supposed to have friends? Were you supposed to have guardians…? Were you supposed to have Sun and Moon? Should you have met your childhood friends once again…? Was it your fault that your mom died…?

        As you started to think about your mom, your mind started to wander to your father. What was his name again… Black Night was it? Spirit had said you could call him Black. He was part reaper… You were part reaper. Well ⅓ reaper really. But still, you were part reaper… Like Reaper himself. You buried your head into your hands, causing your short black hair to pool around you. Why was this happening…? Was he alive? Or was he dead? If he was alive, why didn’t he try and save Yuki…. Yuki Phiri, your mother.

        Your mind kept wandering about, unknowing what was happening around you. What were you to do now? A low hiss echoed around you, making you bolt up in place. What the hell was that? You turned around you, trying to spot what would have made the noise. Your eyes landed on a large white tiger, with black stripes, and he had bright and dark blue flames coming off of him. This caused you to freeze, why the hell was there… a large tiger here?

        It contrasted drastically with having wolves here recently. You watched as the tiger prowled towards you, suddenly lunging at you, but you noticed one thing, it seemed to be… scared. But was then tackled away by Yoru, who growled, baring his teeth. As he kept away the white tiger away from you. “Ao, stand down. The last thing we need to do is attack this human, the one Skia is using as a host,” A large tiger that had ice around him spoke, approaching the tiger with blue flames around it. Yoru had yet to budge. ‘Where did Yoru come from…?’

        “I suggest you get your… felines, in check. We don’t need them attacking Flower,” Lighting growled baring his white teeth at the other tiger. You bit your lip as more large cats started to approach, and a single thing slipped through your mouth on accident.

        “Who the hell are you people!?!” You barked out on accident. This caused you to shrink back, “Oops…” You mumbled as you glanced away. You looked around seeing more large cats. One cat started to approach you, coming closer than the other ones. It had orange and yellow fur with black and brown stripes, with a white furred chest. The paws were a dark brown and went up until midway on their leg. It then stopped in front of you, as Poison growled lowly at the tiger, his position right next to you.

        Suddenly the tiger leaped over Yoru, pouncing on you. You could feel your eye and markings flare up a bright purple. But instead of attacking you like you expected- “Purrrr,” echoed through the void, it was low, and coming from right above you. “Doku, my name’s Doku. Nice to finally meet you Flower,” He purred happily, though this threw you off. Suddenly, you saw Rage leaping at Doku from the corner of your eye. But was countered by a tiger, who looked to be made of flames.

        With a bit of a moment's hesitation, you reached out, petting the tiger behind his ears. Doku purred happily, laying down on top of you, to your surprise, he was kind of light. He nuzzled you happily, as suddenly a growl echoed from a little to the left, causing you to turn your head. “Get off of her cat. You stay on your side, and we will stay on our side.” Kori’s voice echoed deeply, with an edge as if saying, back the hell off or it looks like we will have to fight, kind of voice. Doku hissed in annoyance, nuzzling into you more.

        “Doku. Get off of the human. I am very sorry Flower, I am Rece. And actually Kori, we are on the neutral point, meaning we are aloud right over here,” The ice tiger hissed the last point at the ice wolf. Doku seemed to pout, before nuzzling you once again, and listening to Rece, he got off of you. As he nuzzled you once more, before settling for sitting in front of you. Yoru growled at Doku, pushing his black furred body closer to you. This confused you. First Yoru, would not come anywhere near you. Now he wasn’t even leaving your side.
       Asgore, this was confusing. You reached down and patted Yoru’s head, making him tense, and Doku to meow jealously. “I might as well introduce us. As you know, you already have met Doku, I am Rece. Next the tiger made of flames, is Kasai. The white tiger that attacked you earlier is Ao.” Rece started, as then with his icy tail, motioned towards a blue tiger, that had a lightning like bolt pattern going down his sides, and were glowing a bright light blue. “That is Szellem, we call him Sze, for short. The white tiger with black stripes and white wings, is Ciel. This one, that looks like… What was it? Vaporeon I believe, is named Val. The yellow cat, that looks like a cheetah and as a green mane kind of, is Iluminat, who we call Ilu. Finally, the black lion with a white mane, and black wings is Kage,” Rece finished, introducing everyone.
        You stared for a moment, trying to take in all the new information. You stared at the different 9 large or giant cats. Though Val and Ilu were slightly smaller. The largest being Rece or Kage. Doku seemed to be in the middle, along with Sze, Kasai, and Ciel. They looked to have their own type each, kind of like the wolves did. You continued to study the 2 different races, who looked like they wanted to rip each other’s throats out. Though Doku reminded you of a big puppy who just wanted attention, the thought made you chuckle quietly, no one but Doku and Yoru paid attention to your small laugh.
