   A small skeleton laid sprawled out onto the snow. Soft flakes of the frozen water landed on his cracked skull. He looked to his side. Into the forest that seemed to sway with no breeze as he went in and out of consciousness. With rattling bones he forced himself to standing. "Point five..." he groaned "he left me on point five". He looked at his stats with fear. Any monster in underfell would jump at the chance for a free kill.
   Being like this, in his eye sockets, meant he was a walking target. Free XP for other monsters to dust with a flick of their fingers. Stumbling he began to walk. Clutching his arm, snow crunched loudly under him. The sound echoed in his non existent ears. Skull throbbing with pain.
   But he marched on. Through the trees, making his way back to snowdin. Hoping, praying, that his brother wasn't there to finish what he left. His vision was tunneling as he reached a sign. It had periwinkle frozen flowers growing on it and read "welcome to snowdin" in fun seemingly hand drawn font.
  Before fully comprehending that something was off about the sign, his shaky legs gave under him. Once he felt the comforting cold on his cheek bone the remaining consciousness he had left him. Leaving him in a numb yet buzzing void.

   Warm. He groaned, hearing worried muffled voices as he floated in the void. His eye sockets opened. Being greeted with a multitude of vibrant colors. Oranges and blues being most prominent. His vision was blurry. The smell of tacos cooking filled his nose. "Papy! Papyrus he's awake! Sir are you alright?" A frantic, semi high pitched voice chimed up. It had resemblance of  his own. "Sans leave him be. Your scaring him".
   His bones tensed. Vision coming into focus his red eye flared indicating his powers had been activated. He scrambled pressing his spine against the back of the couch. A tall skeleton, with the look and sound of his brother, quickly grabbed whoever was next to him's arm. Yanking the skeleton that looks like you behind himself in a protective manner.
    It was at this time he got a clear view of his surroundings. It was his house, but something was different. The colors where brighter. Holes didn't cover the walls, and nothing seemed to be broken. Reds eye slowly faded back to his classic white eyelights, and he didn't press himself as hard against the couch.
   "Where am I? And who are you?"
