Undertale: Resurrected

Chapter Three: A Proposition

In less than five minutes, four children were making their way through the forest with their weapons in hand. Given their limited resources, Gabriel, Flare, and Via simply held a small sack of rocks for each other them, and while Vera too had her own set of pebbles, she also was armed with a homemade slingshot, which she had been working at mastering for a while. It was obvious to everyone that Vera had a keen eye, so of course she lead anything that involved hunting or in this case, long-distance fighting.

         "You sure they're here?" asked Vera. "Or are they inside the Flower Room?"

         "M-maybe they're already gone," Gabriel whimpered, hoping he was right yet at the same time wrong.

         "I hope not, because if the outsiders left, the possibility of Daya and Austin still being here-"

         "There!" Via was suddenly interrupted by Flare, who was aggressively pointing at the cave leading into the ever-so-well-known Flower Room. "I hear them!"

         "Keep it down or they'll hear us too!" Vera hissed before motioning for everyone to spread out. "Get ready to kick some outsider ass!"

         "That's a bad word!" Gabriel said automatically, only for Vera to roll her eyes and Via to sigh.

         "Just- Go find a place to shoot," Via said in exasperation before moving into a crouching position while the others began finding their own hiding places. Of course, Via ended up moving towards a better spot when Gabriel informed her she wasn't as well-hidden as she'd thought she was, the two ending up in the same hiding spot as they prepared to strike whatever moved.

         No sooner had everyone picked their spots when the outsiders emerged, Flare's description proving true as the small boy and strange monster stepped into the light.

         "Is that Austin?" Via questioned quietly, squinting as she tried to get a better look.

         Gabriel, who was hiding nearby, whispered, "A-Austin wears bright blue stuff. That kid's wearing a d-darker blue and pink, a-and these weird round things over his eyes-"

         Once again, Via squinted, though she couldn't see much of a difference, except his clothes did seem to be a slightly darker shade of blue, now that Gabriel had pointed that out. She could also see a strange flashing glare whenever he turned his head a certain way, causing her to assume that whatever these 'round things' were had ended up causing said glare.

         "There's Austin there's Austin!" Gabriel whisper-yelled as two figures eventually followed the outsiders out of the cave. Those two figures were none other than Daya and Austin, though no one waited for an explanation as Vera suddenly yelled, "Fire!"

         Instantly, rocks began flying out of the woods and in the direction of the two outsiders, Austin letting out a terrified squeal as Toriel tried to shield him and the other two children from the attack. Frisk, not expecting the sudden onslaught, yelped and ducked down himself, though he soon ran to Toriel in an attempt to find cover.

         Daya, on the other hand, started yelling at the trees after letting out her own cry of surprise. "Hey! Stop it! Ow! Stop throwing the stupid rocks!" Granted that was rather rude of her, but after getting hit by one of the many flying pebbles, she'd become irritated. Once the group had realized they were hitting a wide open Daya more than they were hitting the goat monster, they stopped. Mostly. Another rock had come flying out of the forest and hit Toriel in the head.
