The Beginning Of The End(1st Part Of The Undertale Series)

Perseverance

*Vision fades in*

Notebook in hand, pen being propped up behind their ear, they ran with all their might into the next room. It was dark just like the room when Frisk recently first met Flowey.

Flowey appeared.

As the child was scribbling wildly within their notebook, Flowey exclaimed, "Howdy! I'm FLOWEY. FLOWEY the FLOWER!"

They avoided the flower. The flower was not interesting enough at the moment as they finished the last few lines of their story.

"Did you hear me? Are you deaf? I said HOWDY!"

They jumped at the sudden anger emanating from the feisty plant as they placed their notebook back in their backpack. They returned their pen to the back of their ear as Flowey nodded once in satisfaction.

"Hmmm... You're new to the UNDERGROUND, aren'tcha? Golly, you must be so confused. Someone ought to teach you how things work around here! I guess little old me will have to do. Ready? Here we go!" He had a hold of their soul as it floated in between the flower and the child. Their eyes were wide with astonishment as their soul was a strong, glowing purple. It beat faster and faster the more they admired it.

"See that heart? That is your SOUL, the very culmination of your being! Your SOUL starts off weak, but can grow strong if you gain a lot of LV. What's LV stand for? Why, LOVE, of course! You want some LOVE, don't you? Don't worry, I'll share some with you!"

Their head tipped sideways in confusion, an eyebrow raised. Their glasses that hide the emotion in their eyes slid a little downwards.

"Down here, LOVE is shared through... little white... 'friendliness pellets.' Are you ready? Move around! Get as many as you can!" He beamed as he tossed five white seeds towards the child's direction.

The child caught one in their hand. Their hand became a bloody mess as the other four seeds struck them on other parts of their body. They screamed out in utter pain as they fell on their hands and knees, struggling with their breathing. They looked up and noticed that their HP was down to one. They shook in defeat and fear as Flowey cackled, "You idiot! In this world, it's kill or BE killed. Why would ANYONE pass up an opportunity like this!?"

Pellets(or seeds) surrounded the child as they began to sob. They looked up in complete fear at Flowey's terrifying smile. Shivers went down their spine as their fear increased more on their face as Flowey's insane smile increased even more, his pupils dilating.

"Awww.~ You poor, poor soul. What a great loss this will be for you...

... Die."

The seeds gradually got closer and closer to the child's cracked and dimmed soul. They closed their eyes tight as they felt the force of the pellets close to touching their very being. It never happened. Their soul never got crushed because a sudden fireball struck the flower sideways. He squeaked as he flew far away from the area, screaming out that he will see them soon. A huge female goat appeared in front of the poor child's sight. They felt a whole lot better all of a sudden. They looked up at their HP. It was back to its original state.

The goat giggled. "Yes, yes, my child. I have healed you from that nasty flower. My name is Toriel. I am the caretaker of the RUINS. Now, what could your name be?"

They held up an index finger as they took off their backpack, opened it, and fished for their notebook. They found their notebook, grabbed their pen from their ear, then wrote their name. They held the notebook to Toriel's face so she could read it clearly. It said, "hi, toriel. my name is Delta(Delilah is their full name)." Toriel beamed as she borrowed their book for a moment as she wrote back to them, "A very beautiful name you got! Now to let you know, I come here everyday to see if anyone new has fallen. You are the first human I have seen in a while. Now, my child, I am going to have to show you the ways around this place. Unless you want to stay here and rest a little while longer?"
