(Swearing and themes of self harm. Read at your own peril.)

Duska

This is the first dream that i've had since bringing Gaster and my Dad back from the void. The small room that i'm in is covered in what seems to be blood, it sure smells like something dead. A knife sat opposite from where I stand, it seems like an ordinary kitchen knife.

"Hello."

I spin around to see a child below me, they seem to look a lot like Frisk but they're wearing a green and yellow jumper instead of Frisks' blue and purple one. Something in the back of my head tells me to wake up quickly but I seem not to be able to, no matter how hard I pinch myself.

"You can't wake, not unless I allow you."

"Who are you?"

"Me? I'm Chara. It's nice to meet you."

"Uh... nice to meet you too."

"No it's not."

I flinch in surprise, taking a step backwards and away from her.

"Huh?"

"For you, meeting me... is probably the worst thing that could ever happen to you."

She walks around me and heads for the knife. I walk backwards towards the wall, away from the possible danger.

"You see, even if I use all of my power, you wouldn't be very useful for killing anyone. But..."

I feel something wrap around my arm and I turn my head to see apart of the wall growing around it. I try and pull away but it grabs my leg and i'm unable to escape it. I feel tears falling down my cheeks, someone please wake me up.

"... I could destroy their happiness. Frisk looks up to you, to Flowey your his best friend and to that fat bag of bones..."

She turns and the most terrifying face is planted on that small girl. Her steps echo throughout the small room, despite it's size it still feels like she took years before reaching me.

"... if he ever lost you, he would lose his mind!"

Sans

Christmas Eve is tomorrow and it took Duska hours before she was tired enough to sleep, even her energetic friend Tianna got to sleep before her. She still hasn't found anywhere to put up that mistletoe, it sounds creepy when I think how much I like her kissing me. I love her, just as much as I love Papyrus but differently of course. Right now Asgore, Toriel, Dad, Sylin, Flowey, Undyne, Alphys, Papyrus, Frisk, Tianna and I are all in the lounge room watching a movie, Duska said that she was tired and so she went to bed in her room. A sudden slam from upstairs makes me and everyone else in the lounge room jump, it sounds like it came from the bathroom.

"What w-was that?"

"Was it the wind?"

"no, there are no open windows up there."

"Then what the hell was it!?!"

"may as well get up and see."

Apparently by saying this it makes me the one to follow as we walk up the stairs and towards the bathroom door, a light is clearly seen underneath it. The whole of us gather around the door as I knock loudly.

"you in there kid?"

Nothings comes from the other side of the- wait... I hear a painful moan. I strain my hearing and I hear several drops of liquid hit the tiled bathroom floor. I knock again but louder.

"hey duska! i can hear you ya know!"

"What is it Sans?"

I hear a muffled sob from the bathroom, its certainly Duska in there. I grab the knob but flinch away, it burnt my bone somehow.

"ow."

"ARE YOU HURT?"

"i think duska's going through worse."

Duska

Chara puts the knife to her left arm and cuts deeply. A burning sensation comes from my own left arm, I'm able to turn my head enough to look at it. A cut the same size and depth of Chara's is on my arm, blood pours freely from it. I look back up to Chara to see that her own cut is now healing at a rapid rate.

"By hurting myself in a dream, you hurt yourself out there."

Her smile grows as the knife reaches her arm and  makes another cut next to the first, it hurts a lot but I don't scream. I don't want to give her satisfaction.

Sans

"hey! open the door!"

"Move!"

A scaly hand pushes me away from the door and I watch as Undyne gives herself a running start into the door. Instead of breaking, the door flashes a red colour and she flies back. She recovers by rolling but it seemed to have done damage to her, she's sweating heavily.

"U-undyne! Are y-you alright!?!"

"I won't let a stupid door keep me out!"

She runs into the door again, the same experience hit her and she again rolls across the floor.

"Stop! Your only hurting yourself! Let me try, i'm her father so she may listen."

Sylin walks up to the door and knocks politely.

"Duska? What is wrong my daughter?"

Again no answer, something doesn't feel right. I decide to teleport right in there and so I pull in the familiar feeling of space distorting around me. I suddenly gain a tight pain in my ribs and I collapse to my knees, struggling to breathe.

"SANS!"

Papyrus drops to his knees and lifts my face so that he can see it, I may not have lungs but apparently I still need to breathe. His face looks scared for me, I don't want him to be afraid. The tightness disappears as quick as it came and I take in a large gulp of air.

"BROTHER! WHAT HAPPENED!?!"

"i don't know. i tried to teleport but instead it felt like... i couldn't breathe."

"BUT YOUR A SKELETON! WE DON'T NEED TO BREATHE!"

I stare at him confusingly, what is happening!?!

"Wait, put me by the door Frisk."

We all watch as the kid puts the plant down by the door. He sits there with his eyes closed for a minute, I'm back on my feet again, until he gasps loudly.

"Chara!?!"

"what!?! your lying plant!"

"Flowey, why did you say Chara?"

Both Toriel and Asgore look down at Flowey, expecting him to answer. I instead cough and scratch my skull, I guess I gotta tell them.

"long story short frisk once had the ability to... reset time and space. he did it thousands of times before he began remembering them, not knowing that i remembered each and every timeline he went through."

I look at Papyrus beside me, he looks terrified at my words.

"pap, those nightmares... weren't nightmares. they were memories... of chara... killing..."

Tears formed in my eye sockets as I felt a lump in my throat, is this really the time? I'm suddenly embraced by my little brother, he's too nice.

"WELL I'M HERE NOW SO THEY NO LONGER MATTER! WE EVEN GOT DAD BACK! AND UNCLE SY!"

"heh... thanks bro."

A scream pierces through the bathroom door and we all look towards it, Duska... Papyrus puts me down and we both ran to the door and begin knocking furiously.

"duska! get out of there!"

"She's gone fat bones!"

"Chara! Let her go!"

"No way plant! You all ruined my chance in the underground, so now I'll ruin your souls!"

Another scream comes from the bathroom, I need to get in there!! I bring magic up from within me and push it towards the door, my blue magic only gets absorbed by the red magic that surrounds the door. I do it again, and again, and again. My fifth time around I see other magic hit the door and I turn to see everyone else glowing with magic, even Flowey has small pellets of magic above his head.

"Don't stop Sans! Keep hitting it!"

I nod at Sylin and face the door again, nothing will ever take one that I love ever again!

Duska

Another cut appears on my arm, I'm bleeding a lot right now. Another cut and I scream as I can't hold it in any more, there are five cuts on me now.

"Ooh! You losing strength already? That's boring..."

Another cut appears, I won't last much longer.

"Two more... Then you'll be bleeding out. Well, technically we both will but... that means I get to watch them cry."

She quickly slices her arm twice in quick succession, I feel reality slipping from me. I can feel the dream ending with only the evil smile of Chara to be there with me.

"You don't... know me Chara... I will live. I don't give... up on them... and they won't... give up... on me."

"Not unless the one threat to their society lives inside you! It's them... or you."

My eyes slowly open to show the image of a bloody blade in my right hand and cuts all down my left arm. Blood pools beneath me and energy through my body is in low supply. I drop the knife and push myself up with my right arm, it takes a while but I'm able to stand. My head pounds heavily as I walk over to the medicine cabinet, pull out some bandages and begin to wrap my arm tightly. There are also pain killers but the side effect of drowsiness is against me. I see the blood staining the bandage begin to dry up, thank god for the monster DNA inside me.

"duska! please! open the door!"

"Sa-"

My throat burns as I talk and I begin to cough, blood rushes up from my lungs and blood ends up in the sink.

"duska!"

I walk towards the door but my legs give out before I get there, I feel so heavy. I use my arms to crawl myself to the door and reach towards the door knob, its just out of reach.

"You will die alone."

I ignore the voice of Chara and push myself upwards as I reach for the door knob, I'm only just able to turn it and I'm able to open the door. As it slightly opens I collapse onto the ground as any energy I had when I woke up has now been completely drained from me.

"hey! hey kid!"

I see Sans as he looks over me the gasps as he looks into my eyes. Toriel is another that I'm able to see and I see a flash of red in her eyes, its a reflection of my own. My chest feels heavy, as if something is clinging to my very Soul. 

"kid... do you..."

"Chara... some... how... cuts..."

I lift my left arm slightly and he notices, he picks me arm up and looks at the blood soaking through the bandages.

"why you..."

Tears fall from his eye sockets, I hate seeing him cry. A sudden pain erupts in my head and the last thing I remember before darkness is Sans' face looking down sadly at me.
