Pain washed over Glitch's body.

This was not a normal kind of pain. This felt like she had hit rock bottom... literally.

She groaned and opened her eyes. Her vision was blurry for a moment, but eventually cleared up.

She couldn't feel her ears and tail. Her whole body felt... different.

She looked at her hands. They weren't her usual gray, clawed, paw-like hands.

They were normal, human, flesh-toned hands.

She let out a startled shriek. What had happened to her? She tried to remember.

Oh, that's right. She was hacking. The result must have been this.

She didn't like this. She wanted to be back to normal, but for some reason couldn't hack anymore. She looked around for someone, anyone, to help her.

There was no one.

"Hello? Please, is anyone here?" She shakily got up and headed to the only exit of the room.

What she saw next surprised her.

"Howdy!"

Frisk didn't know where they were. They couldn't see anything or anyone.

"Hello? Is... is anyone here?" they called, scared.

They decided to explore. This place was so empty; it was almost like a void. Nothing but black as far as the eye could see.

But then, she noticed someone.

"Hello?" they repeated. "Please, can you help me? I don't know where I am..."

The figure's ears twitched as they turned to face the stranger.

"Hello? Who are you? It is not often I get visitors..."

"M-my name is Frisk. W-who are you?"

"My sister calls me Anti."

"... sister?"

This must be the one Glitch was talking about.

"I'm Frisk. I... I don't know how I got here."

"Could you tell me what you know?"

"Well, I remember meeting someone named Glitch-"

Anti's tail poofed from surprise. "G...glitch? How did she find you?"

"I don't know. She said that not even she knows."

"... strange."

"I know... but...now that I'm here, could you help me? I need to go back home. I have friends and family that are waiting for me."

"I... I'd help you, but I don't know how to leave..."

"Well, Glitch left, so surely you can find a way to leave too."

Anti thought for a moment. This stranger seemed promising. Should she help them?

"... okay. I'll just need a little time."
