UNEDITED.
Your knees ached. Your back hurt. Your mouth was dry. Your fingers stung. Everything hurt. You were hiking up Mt. Ebbot. You had heard rumors from other kids at your school about this mountain. That nobody who had ever gone up there had come back down. You scoffed at the idea, thinking it was silly. You wanted to prove them wrong. But you were starting to see the truth in their words.
A while back you had attempted going back down, but you failed and ended up going in circles, and you were forced to keep trecking forward. You didn't pack any food, water, or extra clothes because you didn't think you would be up here this long. This decision was one you deeply regretted. It was freezing up on Ebbot, and you were wearing nothing but shorts, and a green sweater with a yellow stripe. It wasn't nearly as cold down below in your village. The wind attacked you and gave no mercy. It was snowing and you could barely see your hand in front of your face.
Suddenly, as you were walking, you felt your foot get caught in something. As you crouched down you saw it was a thick vine. You carefully stood up, and slowly attempted to work your foot out. It wasn't working. You tried lifting your foot up and tugged hard. This, however, was a mistake. As you pulled it felt as if the vine tugged back with an equal amount of force. (oooo science). This caused you to unfortunately, lose your balance. You fell, and began rolling down a small hill. You couldn't stop, and sense of dread filled you as you saw what was up ahead.
Just a short distance away, was a huge hole. It seemed bigger than your school, possibly twice the size! As you continued to tumble, you tried your best to stop yourself, but to no avail. As your body came ever closer to the edge, you dug your nails in the dirt as a desperate attempt to stop. You slowed, but not by much. Then, you stopped rolling. Instead your body began to lurch forward. You wondered why this sudden change in motion began. But you knew.
Your torso was already falling, and you desperately kicked your feet around for something, anything, to latch on to. But there was nothing. It seemed as if time slowed. Seconds turned into minutes. Minutes to hours. But you had to fall eventually. There was no delaying the inevitable. And it was then, time seemed to notice the unnatural change. Soon time caught up with you, and you realized, a horrible realization, you were falling. Falling into a black abyss of no escape.
When you woke up you were very dizzy, and all your eyes could make out was a swirl of green and yellow. You tried getting up but your head felt heavy, and you lied it down again. You felt the strong urge and need to sleep. But you couldn't. Wherever you were, you had to escape. I mean, there wasn't much waiting for you on the surface. But you had enough experience to know that if you stayed in an unknown place for too long, death was a big possibility.
You gathered all of your strength, and pushed yourself off the ground. As you did, you felt a sharp pain come from your ankle. You had either sprained it, or it was broken. You leaned over a bit and put most of your weight on the healthy ankle. Your eyes drifted around, and you began to take a look at your surroundings. You were standing in the middle or a bed of golden flowers. You knew these flowers. They were buttercups! Your village was full of them, and they were your favorite. You tilted your head directly upward and saw sunlight. You let your eyes adjust and saw that the sunlight was peeking over the side of the hole you fell down. "Well this is just great", you thought. You had fallen down a hole into a place you didn't recognize, and on top of that you were hurt. Just your luck. As you contemplated how things could get any worse, you heard something.
The sound was soft footsteps, and they were coming your way. You wanted so badly to call out to whomever the footsteps belonged to, but you knew better. You had to wait, and stay alert.
"Hello?" a voice called out. Hearing the voice immediately made you relax. The voice was soft, comforting, and kind. You could tell it belonged to a child. And where there is a child there are adults, right? You turned your body to the direction of the voice. You certainly didn't expect what your eyes had landed on.
Right in front of your eyes was no human being. Though it did look some-what human like. What you saw before you, was some kind of, goat-monster. He was short, about your height. You could tell he was only a boy. The monster wore a green sweater with a yellow stripe, exactly like the one you were wearing. He soft eyes held of mix of curiosity and concern.
"Whoa a human! A real human!" he cried out, looking excited. He could barely contain his joy. You giggled softly as you realized he was no threat. His exited expression went back to one of concern as he saw the state you were in. "Um, human, are you ok? Are you hurt?" the goat asked innocently. You held back the urge to giggle, and nodded.
"Don't worry, everything will be alright", he said reassuringly. He walked up you and looped his left arm under your left arm in an attempt to help support you. It did help, and soon you were both slowly leaving the garden-like place you were in. As you both walked, he bombarded you with questions. But you didn't mind. They were things like "What's your name?" or "How did you fall down here?". Some were even really random like "What's your favorite color?". You asked the same questions. You found out that the monster's name was Asriel. You had fallen into a place called the "Underground". It was filled with monsters of all kinds. But Asriel told you not to worry, as most of the monsters were friendly.
Finally, you arrived where Asriel was taking you. It was a big castle. As Asriel led you inside, you noticed the castle was quite bare. Most of the walls and corridors were just gray.
Asriel continued to help you walk, and you both talked and learned about each other. You learned that Asriel's parents were the kind and queen of the Underground. "Wait, so does that make you a prince?" you asked, curious. Asriel seemed to take this into consideration. "Well I've never thought about it that way. But now that you mention it, I guess so!" Asriel said cheerily.
Asriel gave you a short tour of his castle, and then introduced you to his parents, Asgore and Toriel. They were wonderful and the most kind people, well technically monsters, you've ever met. As it turns out there is a barrier that separates the Underground from the human world, so your stuck. But in all honesty, you didn't mind. There wasn't much waiting for you in your village anyways. Asgore and Toriel offered to adopt and raise you as their own, and you gladly accepted. You had thought that your death awaited in the Underground, but you were wrong. Falling here might have been, no had been the greatest thing to ever happen to you. You had a wonderful new family, a step up from your own, and a new home, again a step up. You had a new best friend, Asriel. You two were very close, and he seemed as a brother to you. It seemed as if nothing could go wrong. You had a new, perfect life. But some perfect things have to come to an end.
(Timeskip 6 monthes because im trash)
You lied in your bed, in terrible pain. You had and ear-splitting headache, and it hurt just to think. Your stomach seemed like it was having a civil war with itself. Your arms and legs felt so sore, you couldn't even move them. Your sight was extremely blurry, but you could make out the silhouette of your best friend, standing next to your bedside, crying.
"Please Y/N. I don't like this plan anymore", Asriel cried gripping your hand tightly. "Oh Asriel. We can't stop now. We're so close. Are you crying?" you asked, still in a daze. "N-no, i'm not crying. Big kids don't cry", Asriel replied sniffling between a few words. "I-I'm just worried okay? I'm worried for you", he told you.
"Are you doubting me?" you asked, a bit hurt your best friend was still unsure. "No no! I said I would never doubt you. I'm just... worried is all. Six right? We just have to get six. And we'll do it together, right?".
"Right", you choked out. Your voice was very raspy, and it hurt to speak. Slowly, your world started to become dizzy. Everything was breaking and falling apart. Everything was fading away. "Please Y/N. Just hold on a little longer!" you heard your best friend call out. It was very faint, as you were slowly drifting away. But you didn't really feel like holding on. Not now.
You said nothing to Asriel, you only slightly tilted your head towards him, and smiled. Your grip on reality was slipping. Asriel's grip on your hand became tighter. Reality was slipping away slowly, ever so slowly. Until it slipped away completely. And faintly, ever so faintly you heard a soft cry as you slipped and fell away. "Please Y/N. Please don't go".
But nobody came.
