Chapter 29
All was quiet in the Underswap universe, nothing but the cold winds and creaking old buildings could be heard throughout the empty town of Snowdin. What was once such a happy, bright place, filled with the laughter of monster children and the conversations of friends all around, now became an abandoned wasteland.
Buildings were turned to rubble, dust still stained the few walls that still stood, never vanishing despite the constant snowfall. Even if monsters used to live here, it was now a complete ghost town, not occupied with ghost monsters mind you. The only thing left behind is the moaning wails of agony and the once joyful memories left behind by all the deceased, echoing in the wind as it blew through the trees and debris.
It had to be midnight now, despite not being able to tell time with no clocks around. It was the best that anyone could assume without being able to tell the actual time. Almost everyone in the house was asleep at this point. The swap brothers were sharing the dirty room of the older one, which didn't make Blue very happy, but all he wanted now was comfort from his brother in these hard times.
Meanwhile, the brothers Sans and Papyrus from the classic AU were using Blues room to rest. Sans made sure to let his brother take up the bed, not taking no for an answer. He made himself comfortable on the ground as he could and passed out after drinking a couple of ketchup bottles and dropping them around him. Only soft snores and occasional whimpers of sadness from Papyrus and Blue could be heard in the upstairs area as they slept through the quiet night, no Nightmares appearing, for now.
However, the only soul in the house that couldn't sleep, couldn't even close his eyes out of anxiety and fear for one of their missing comrades, was Fresh. His YOLO glasses rested on the coffee table in front of the couch as he paced back and forth between the TV, thinking to himself.
When he learned from Blue that Dream had left the Underswap AU while everyone else was healing themselves, he couldn't help but to feel his fear spike up to new levels. Dream was one of the strongest Sans that Fresh knew, and the only reason they were standing any kind of change against Dream's own brother Nightmare. His positive aura and attitude was probably the only thing keeping this small group going, and if something were to happen to him....
Fresh started shaking his head, trying to force those negative thoughts out of his head.
"C'mon Fresh, keep it together bro. I can't give up just yet. He'll come back soon, I'm sure..."
Trying to ease his mind, Fresh sat down on the couch and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down. His feet were tapping on the ground anxiously, his fingers locked together in a tight grip. His eyes focused on the ground as he tried to keep his breathing steady. He couldn't help but feel like someone was gonna attack them all at any minu-
Knock Knock Knock
Fresh was back on his feet in a matter of seconds when he heard the knocking at the front door. He didn't move for a few seconds, a part of him expecting the door to be knocked down or blown off by an enemy, but when nothing happened, he started to make his way to the door. His soul started beating out of his chest as he stood only three feet away from the entrance to the house. He could feel his bones rattle as his hand rested on the doorknob, a sharp bone attack appearing in the hand that hid behind his back. If there was an enemy behind that door, Fresh wouldn't hesitate to attack. Taking a deep breath, he swung the door open and swiftly brought the sharpened bone to the neck of the person at the entrance, adrenaline fueling his bones as fear made him blind.
"Woah Fresh! Calm down ...it's just me."
The soothing voice along with a calm, hopeful aura suddenly flooded his senses, making him snap his eyes open and realize that the attack he had in his hand was currently aimed under his friend Dream's neck, almost cutting the bone it pressed against. Dream's own eyes were open in shock, but he kept himself calm and unmoving in his spot. In a panic, Fresh dropped the attack and stood back, letting out a breath he didn't know he was holding.
"Dream! Oh thank god it's you. Ya had me worried for awhile bud, no one knew where you went and-!!!"
Everything he wanted to say vanished as he saw the skeleton who was currently cowering behind Dream, not having the nerve to even look Fresh in the eyes. The body of the other skeleton was glitching, showing very clear signs of nervousness and fear. The arms of the skeleton was wrapped around itself, shivering and covered in snow and ice. Shaky red and yellow eyes slowly raised up from the ground and connected with Fresh, whos eyes glowed with rage. It was him, the skeleton that Fresh believe started all of this, the one who took Ink away from them and ended their way of live.
Error.
Dream stood his ground in front of the skeleton, raising his arms in defense towards his angered friend.
"Fresh, I know he's not someone you want to see right now, but if you would please just-"
"Dream...I need you to move....NOW!!"
Behind the two freezing skeletons, a large Gaster Blaster appeared, one eye having a glowing purple soul and the other resembling a black abyss. Fresh stood underneath it only a few seconds later, purple flames flaring from his eye sockets in rage.
"ITS TIME I KILL THAT ABOMINATION!!"
