<FINALS WILL REKT ME>

Frisk woke up in a room.

That was all a bad dream. Nothing ever happened. I never slipped. I ain't crazy. I never met a talking flower. None of these things I encountered are real. I never met this 'Chara' and-

You dingus. You're  not a home. Chara interupted Frisk's train of thought

Oh fuck it's real, Frisk internally screamed.

Frisk looked around. The walls were a rose-red with flame patterns spiraling all around the walls. Frisk got out of the bed, surprised they  didn't even realise they was in one. There was a bedside table with some type of pie. Frisk stretched out my arm to get a slice of pie, before halting, skeptical about the conveniently placed food .

Since when did i get so suspicious? They thought. But i should be, this place could kill me if i am not careful.

Frisk, Frisk, Frisk. Oh hell, that gotta be the last time i call u by name like, who calls they're child Frisk? Like "HEY FRISK WE'RE GONNA DO A FRISK SEARCH TO FIND YOUR TOY." who does that? Chara put their hands on their head. WHAT WERE YOUR PARENTS THINKING CHILD?!

Frisk stared at Chara with a raised eyebrow.

Chara folded their hands.Oh well the pie's safe to eat. It was one of my favourites. Chocolate being first of course.

Frisk took a bite of it. The pie tasted sweet and the vanilla taste exploded in my mouth. Frisk could tell it was butterscotch and cinnamon pie from the taste.

Frisk hummed happily as they ate more of the butterscotch pie-it reminded them of home.  Standing up, (with crumbs of the pie still on their  face cos it tastes heavenly) Frisk surveryed their surroundings again, taking in every detail. There was plushies all around and toy boxes filled to the brim. A picture of a flower, a wardrobe and  a few lamps. A kids room. 

Say, kid, i think we should go now? You know, get out of the underground and shit.

I muttered an insult at Chara and walked to the door. As i went out, something flashed at the corner of my eye.

Why are you stopping? Don't u want to get out of the underground?

"I saw something...Chara." Frisk said.

NOBODY GIVES A SHIT KID. NOBODY GIVES A SHIT.

I obviously ignored Chara. She's being a really bossy "human". The flash came from something in the toy box and i opened it to find a knife. I held it and traced the blade.

Kill the monsters. They are going to hurt you. Kill them all.

I dropped the knife, cutting myself.

Frisk! What happened!?

Chara didn't know what i thought... Whew. I grabbed and knife and found some cloth and wrapped it around the blade. It's for self defence...In case, I assured myself that it won't be nessary. Yet. I stuffed it into my pocket and made my way out.

The hallway was the same rose red, but beautiful gold patterns instead of the flame ones. My finger still throbbed from the cut the knife did but i tried to ignore it. I made my way to what i suppose was the living room.

Of course, my horrible luck. I walked into somewhere else. There was a flight of stairs leading to who knows what monsters keep in that. There was another hallway but, I don't really want to risk it...But you know, why not?

Luck was on my side...I guess. I found the living room! Yay me! There was a neatly placed brown table with matching chairs and a red-brown fireplace with a blazing fire in it. There was a chair with a goat looking monster reading a book on it. The goat didn't seem hostile, but i ain't taking any chances.

"Oh! Up already i see?" This goat monster asked, smiling. It didn't mean any harm, yet.

I nodded.

"Oh, Um...I would like you to know how glad i am to have someone here!" The goat monster chirpped."There are so many old books i want to share!" The monster pointed to the rows of books on the bookshelf. I gulped. Heck no.

"I want to show you my favourtie bug-hunting spot!" The monster continued."I've also prepared a curriculum for your education!"

This was happening way to fast. I took a step back. The goat monster must have noticed this, but continued smiling.

"This may come as a surprise to you, but i have always wanted to be a teacher!" The monster exclaimed, but then frowned. "...Actually that isn't very surprising."

I nodded.

The monster frowned once more. "STILL. I'm glad for you living here."

"Oh do you want something?" It  asked expectantly. "What is it?"

"Umm...Nothing much!" I replied.

"Well, talk to me again if you need anything."

I sighed in relief as this awkward conversation was over. But i guess nothing was what you wanted.

"Do you want to hear about the book i'm reading?" The monster asked again.

It obviously ignored what i was about to say."It's called "72 uses for snails".How bout' it?"

"I guess..?" I said hestitantly.

"Here is an exciting snail fact! Did you know that snails sometimes flip their digestive systems as they mature?"

I didn't know monsters would know facts.

"Interesting right?" The monster said.

"Yeeeeaaahhh..." I uneasily muttered."Soo... Who are you?"

The monster blinked a couple of times.

"Oh! Silly me, I'm Toriel. The caretaker of the ruins!"The monster exclaimed once again.

"Oh...I'm Frisk!"I quickly replied as i ran/walked to the other hallway which was the kitchen. 

I opened the fridge door and found a brand-name chocolate bar in the fridge. I stuck my tongue out in disgust. Chocolate sucks.

CHOCOLATE!?Gimme!

Chara, your a ghost.

WHYYY

I walked back into the living room.

"Hey Toriel! How do cha exit the ruins?" I asked.

"Oh...Umm...I have to do something. Stay here."  Toriel ordered and stood up. Her dress was like a flame, and she had a orange scarf which was braided at the top and was tied in some sign with a circle, 2 wings and 3 triangles.

I looked at Toriel as she walked down the flight of stairs.

I wonder what lies down there.

837 words.

I'M PROUD OF MYSELF
