"Frisk? F-f-frisk, can you hear me?"

The glitchy voice was unfamiliar. Frisk had never heard anyone like that before. It was...strangely motherly, but not like Toriel's voice.

"Frisk, please, it's me, A-a-anti."

Anti? Impossible. Anti hadn't spoken at all since Frisk had arrived there, or at all in general.

They slowly opened their eyes. Sure enough, it was Anti.

"Oh, tha-tha-thank goodness you're alright."

"... A-anti?"

Frisk jumped at the glitch in their own voice. "WHA-"

Anti calmed them with a hand-paw to the shoulder. "I-I-I was afraid this would happen."

"...what's with your v-v-voice? What's with myy voice?"

Anti immediately stopped talking.

"I-I'm sorry."

"N-n-no, it's fine. I was just startled."

"It's not just about me. I'm sorry about you. I should've worked faster. I-"

"W-w-what do you me-mean?"

Anti summoned a mirror.

Frisk froze at their reflection. They were glitched up. Horns stuck out through their hair with a broken halo over top, and a demonlike tail was behind them. They had two broken wings: an angellike wing and a demonlike wing.

"WHA!?"

They cringed away. "Tha-tha-that's not m-me..."

"I'm afraid it is..."

"Wha-wha-what happened to me?"

"It's a long story..."

"Anti.  What happened to m-me?"

"...I...."

Frisk waited for the answer.

"...I think this void corrupted you."
