Ask and Dare the Sanses!!! (And Me- )

"What."

The word echoed throughout the empty cavern called the BATTLE, where normal humans fight monsters. 

There was Nova, smiling, her wings tucked behind her back.

"How did you survive?"

"I probably didn't. I'm probably dead and in some sort of dream where everything is back to normal."

She just blinked and her smile widened, not to the point of showing teeth, though.

"How's the family?"

"What?"

"The Sanses, Under."

"They're... what do you even want with me?!"

Nova sighed.

"I want to know what you're doing. You left Leo, you killed Aura because of this experiment. Who's the leader of this? What are you even trying to accomplish?"

Under blinked.

"Why should I tell you? You'll know when you know. Nothing will... Oh, come out already."

Nova blinked.

The Hooded Figure exited his hiding place.

"Hello."

under nodded to him with respect and turned back to Nova.

"W-who the lord..." Nova sputtered, light purple eyes flashing.

"Just call me the Hooded One or something. Do not worry, dear little one. I am not here to hurt nor help."

he disappeared again.

"Nothing will stop me. I'm bettering the multiverse, Nova. Aura, as I've heard, is not dead. She's with you, isn't she? Right outside the BATTLEfield. She's anxious, as I know her. She's probably messing with what remains of her eyes."

Nova flinched.

"You think you can outsmart me, Nova. That's the problem. Now, either I RUN or you SPARE me."

Nova opened her mouth, but nothing came out.

*Nova SPARED you!*

Under smiled as the world seemed to come back to her, and she turned around.

"Have a nice day."

She opened a portal and stepped through.

"What were you doing there?"

"Things juicy like that can be used for the journalist."

"The Author you mean?"

"Of course. She is nothing more than a journalist, though. Just sitting back and writing."

"You realize she's going to add you too."

"I know. We can't just forget about me after that chapter. Say, didn't you have something to do in that AU?"

"Just walking around, Hood. I'll return to Dream's mansion shortly. Would you mind returning Her?"

Her was the term to the 'light' Under, the one before Leo and the Squad was really together. Before Umi joined, before UnderMare sailed. She was full of joy and light and didn't remember a single plan or memory from when the real under secured control. People may say L!Under is the real one, but either way. L!Under was there when she was still an angel, but she was gone when Under murdered almost an entire species. L! Under was in control at the beginning, but now, Under is here.

The girl smiled at that.

Slowly, she felt herself just fade away.

She was beside V(You forgot about him didn't you?), and smiled at him.

He didn't smile back.

L!Under appeared in front of the mansion, carrying a bucket of random items.

"YO! I GOT A BUCKET FULL OF THINGS YOU LOST!"

Immediately, Killer yelled, "WOW! MY CHILDHOOD INNOCENCE!"

Dream facepalmed.

"Where even were you?" Sun asked, walking into the room and sitting down beside the original him.

"I was taking a walk in a random AU, Dontcha worry." Under spoke for L!Under, though she wouldn't actually know that another her was speaking.

"Nightmare was really worried 'bout cha." Cross said, munching on some chocolate while sitting on a small bookshelf.

"Oh! Jesus that guy needs to calm down! Imma tell him I'm not dead." L!Under stated, putting the bucket down and racing up the stairs.

"How's life?" Under asked her older brother, who looked away and frowned.

"Still givin' me the silent treatment, huh? Wow, I should really do that to you. It is you who ruined my entire life and ended yours."

V shivered.

Under knocked on Nightmare's door, and it flung open.

"Under...?"

"Yo. I'm not dead so stop worrying. I think that's what Cross said. I don't kno-... HOLY SHIT ARE YOU OKAY?!"

He had claw marks in his skull.

"Wh-oh yeah. It's-"

Under shoved him into his room and closed the door, sitting him down on the bed before starting working on fixing his skull.

"You really have to stop."

"It's a habit, Crescent. I can't-"

"People say smoking is a habit some humans quit. G doesn't have lungs so it's okay for him. That's not the point though. You are hurting yourself and you need to stop. If I have to put some wigs on you then I WILL."

he snorted and pushed her hand away.

"Okay okay. I'll try to stop. Where were you any...way...."

His eyes met hers, and relief flooded his.

"I was on some AU looking around and shit. I ran into a monster, though. That sucks."

He sighed in relief and tackle hugged her, getting a yelp out of her as he practically pinned his cold body onto hers, and it was literally freezing/ burning her.

The bed was warm, but his fucking goop was so cold.

"YOU'RE COLD GET OFFFFFFF-"

"Do you wanna build a snowman~?"

They burst out laughing.

The invisible version of Under gagged and V just smiled.

"Shut up. At least she has love. All you care about is evil or something."

She turned to him.

"You're one to talk."
