AUtale (Aka Emmatale)

C-4; Tour

Emma POV

Frisk pulls me along while Sans puns in the background. Frisk describes the place as we go seeing as I can't. The ground is rough under my boots. Before we left I asked Frisk if I looked okay. You know, because I can't really plan the colors. She said I looked surprisingly good.

I can feel the atmosphere change as we go along. When we started it was bitter cold. As we passed along the bank of a river (Frisk told me) it became less intense. Now it was down right warm. And moist. Definitely moist. I hear the sound of dripping water, and occasionally feel a drop on my face. Frisk is holding my hand to keep me from smashing my face into the wall. Before Sans said I should use their voices to follow. Buuuut... after smashing into trees and nearly falling in the river, Frisk decided it would be better to guide me this way.

*Look, there are some crystals in the wall. They are all rainbow and stuff. Umm as you might have noticed there are pointy things from the ceiling. They are dripping water. I don't really know how... The walls, floor, and ceiling are stone... Sans mind helping me out?*

"can't, i'm having too much fun watching you." *Sans! That doesn't help!* "never said it would did i?" Frisk groans loudly. I just trot along behind her, one hand outstretched just in case. Frisk gasps in excitement. *This is it! This is where Undyne lives! It's big and looks like an angry fish. Come on Sans, don't lag behind!!* Frisk speeds up and I hear her knock.

Frisk POV

*Thanks for not hurting Emma, Undyne..* We were sitting at Undynes big wooden table. Since there are four sides the four of us are sitting at each end of the table. We had been swapping stories, mainly Emma's, when Undyne gets up and begins to pace. "AT THIS RATE WE WILL LEAVE THE UNDERGROUND IN NO TIME!!! EMMA! I MUST TEST YOUR STRENGTH AND DETERMINATION USING MY ULTIMATE POWERS OF AWESOMENESS! IF YOU CAN NOT DEFEAT ME THEN SURELY YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO LEND FLOWEY YOUR SOUL TO BREAK THE BARRIER!!!!!"

You wince at the use of Asriel's other name. Flowey-or Asriel-still hadnt told anyone about his condition. He wanted to be the one to break it to his parents that he isnt dead. You just hope he does it soon. Wait did Undyne say she wanted to test Emma's strength? Did she mean a fight?!? This couldn't end well.

Undyne pulls Emma up (the latter looking quite confused) and sets her down while entering a fight. Emma, still unable to see, is forced to stand waiting. Undyne chuckles and proclaims, "PAY CLOSE ATTENTION EMMA! AS YOU ARE BLIND I WILL GO EASY ON YOU!" Emma sighs in relief. You groan. Going easy is Undynes way of saying she wont kill you in one shot. "hey undyne? uhh this whole fight thing does not seem like a cod idea.. i admire your bass but, well, emma doesn't exactly sea-m up to the job.." Everyone but Sans groans at the awful puns. Undyne rolls her eyes and begins.

Emma POV

I stand there shaking. I am not ready to do this. As much as I wish Sans didn't pun every second of the day, I had to admit that he was right. I couldn't fight on the surface. How was I supposed to fight monsters with magic while blind? Undyne begins to explain how to use my soul. "OKAY, PUNK, JUST SUMMON YOUR SOUL AND USE IT TO CHANNEL YOUR INNER STRENGTH!!!" I hear Frisk stand up and walk over to Undyne. They whisper a while before you hear Undyne agree. Frisk sighs, and I relax, preparing to leave when Undyne uses something to stop me. I cant move and the usual darkness is filled with a green glow. I feel a spear shoved into my hands. "ALRIGHT PUNK LETS DO THIS!!!!" I hear the sound of something hurtling toward me. Instincts kick in, bringing the spear up and blocking what I imagine is another spear.
Oh no.

Another comes from the right and I spin that way, stumbling on impact. I can hear Frisks cries of disagreement but I pay them no mind. My ears are trained on the sound of multiple projectiles coming at me. I feel a flash and am back at the orphanage.

*We're playing dodge ball. Emma is on a last stand against four other kids. They are at least 2 years older than her. Emma is only 8, going up against the toughest bullies here. All her teammates are sporting large bruises where they were struck. Six balls come flying at her from all sides. One ball in hand she bounces the first 5. The fifth knocks the shield out of her hands. She closes her eyes, holding both hands over her face. She feels the impact, but it stops. In. Her. Hands.*

I open my eyes and for a second see a child, a skeleton, and a fish lady, before my vision leaves once more. What happened?

Sans POV

I stand when Undyne turns Emmas soul green. This was NOT supposed to happen. *Undyne? What are you doing!?!* Undyne just smirks and summons a spear. After giving one to Emma she sends a projectile at the kid. She blocks it, and the next Then the next five.. No way, she's blocking Undyne. Frisk has stopped yelling and is staring in awe. I look just in time to see Emma. Catching. A. Spear. Her eyes flutter open for a second. Green light is staring back. I gasp. This certainly sheds some light on the situation. Heh. Her eyes fade back into that weird milky grey color.

"Sans?" "hmm?" "Are you a skeleton?" "i- wait. how do you know?" She shrugs. I saw you, and Frisk, and Undyne. Kinda funny a fish lives in a fish house No offense. I turn to Undyne. Her face is flushed from shock but she smiles. "NONE TAKEN! SAY, YOURE TAKING EMMA ON A TOUR, RIGHT? HOW ABOUT WE TAKE THEM TO ALPHYS?" We agree, leaving Emma to wonder about Alphys. Maybe Alphys can figure out Emmas condition.

~time skip to hotland~

We walk up to Muffet's little cave. Emma opted to walk, seeing as this IS a tour. It wouldn't make sense to take a shortcut. We walk in quietly. The walls are dripping with spider webs. I wonder if Emma has-

Emma POV

Frisk is holding my hand once again as we walk through another cave. I hear the sounds of crawling on the walls. I shudder, stopping to pull myself together. It reminds me too much of-Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. My breathing increases. I cant be here, the walls are full of crawling noises. "Wait, give me a second to-" I lean on a nearby wall only to jump away again. I drop Frisk's hand to wipe at something.

It sticks to my hand. Wait. "Whe-where are we?" "uhm.. muffets cave. why?" I remember what Frisk said about Muffet. A baker. Never said what kind of monster she was. Oh No.

Nononononnononononononoonononononononononononononononoononononononononoonnonoonononononononononononononoonononononononono!!!! I cant breathe. Something lands on my head. Not a hand, its too small. I reach up only to touch a-

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I crouch down, hyperventilating fast. *Emma! What's wrong?* Frisk kneels before me. I hear Sans laughter in the distance. Suddenly he is right behind me, speaking in my ear.

"what? scared of a little.

spider?"

I can't deal right now. I bolt up and dash for what I believe is the exit. Need to leave, need to leave, need to leave, need to- I feel strings surround me. I begin to scream. I'm caught in a SPIDERWEB!!!!
