Bear in mind, that they only struggle to form connections, it doesn't really mean that they don't want to.

Chapter Text

When a person has extreme social anxiety, they struggle to communicate to others.

Bear in mind, that they only struggle to form connections, it doesn't really mean that they don't want to.

"It's just, I wish I could speak."


It's a beautiful sunny day, (Y/n) stares at the mirror in her bedroom with a blank expression on her face. Opening her black briefcase bookbag, she puts her items inside and closes it after checking it again and again for three consecutive times.

Loud bangs can be heard from the other side of her bedroom door before it was swung open rather harshly.

There, stood her one and only childhood friend, Susie. Though she might seem harsh to others, she's got a soft spot for (Y/n) who would always treat her to lunch.

And that was actually how they met in the first place. 

Many would always tell to the (h/c) girl that she and her friend were polar opposites. Instead of saying anything, she would stare at them and they'd feel peer pressure from her stare, while in reality she wanted to note about it and was shocked that someone would approach her. Susie would then chase them away as she'd thought they were making fun of her.

"Yo, (Y/n)." She greeted, leaning against the human girl's bedroom walls. "You better treat me to lunch again since you forgot to give the usual shit." Ah, right, chalk.

She nodded and did a thumbs up in reply. Susie smugly smiles at her answer. 

"Come on, let's go before one of your sisters beats the shit outta us." The purple lizard grabs the quiet girl's wrist, rushing out of her home and enter the school.

Once they were in, she lets go of her wrist and they both walked towards their homeroom. (Y/n) puts her bag in her locker, pulling out a notebook and a pencil as Susie slams the door open.

The whole room went silent because of her appearance, as her other friend was just standing behind her.

"ʰ ʰⁱ ˢᵘˢⁱᵉ" Alphys whispered, unaware that the other girl was behind her.

The brawny purple lizard takes a few steps in and (Y/n) became visible and just stood by the doorframe.

"...are we late?"

"ʷᵉ"?  ˢʰᵉ ᵐᵘˢᵗ ᵇᵉ ᵗᵃˡᵏⁱⁿᵍ ᵃᵇᵒᵘᵗ ʸⁿ ʰᵘʰ"  Alphys muttered to herself again, just before noticing (Y/n)'s pressuring stare.

"Ohh, n-no! You're fine! W-we were just, uh...." She trailed off.
"Ch-choosing partners for the next group project, and... Umm, Susie, (Y/n), you're with Kris!"

"...great."

Alphys smiles weakly as she turns to the class, sweating profusely. "N-now that everyone's here, I'll write the assignment!"

She walks over to her desk to find some pristine white chalk... but there was nothing there.

She looks around frantically before facing the class again. "Uhh.... H-has anyone seen the chalk? This is the third time it's gone missing, and... Y-you all know I can't start class without some!"

No one in class speaks up. That's... expected.

"H-how about this? If no one speaks up... E-everyone gets in trouble!" Alphys called for help. 

...But no one answered.

"A... Anyone? P... Please?"

After a while someone spoke up.
"Hey, there might be a box in the supply closet..." Noelle noted to herself "Miss Alphys, why don't Susie and I..." She continued, as Alphys interrupted her.

"G-good idea, Noelle! Susie, s-since you and (Y/n) came in last... Why don't you go get it for me...?" She smiled towards the two.

"...whatever." Susie grumbles leaving with the (s/c) human before closing the door shut.

"And K... Kris... Can you go with them and make sure they... Um, actually get it? And, um, stay out of trouble...?"

Kris nods.

"Thanks Kris! See you later!"

Bruh moment.

They exit their homeroom class only to see Susie eating chalk and (Y/n) writing something on her notebook.

Susie notices their presence and turns to face them with a smug on her face. "...Kris. Didn't see you there."

She turns away, watching (Y/n) writing down a fake hall pass. "You didn't see anything just now, did you?" She queried Kris, who didn't answer in return. 

"Hmm... you can't even say?" Clearly irked at the silence they gave her. 

"Kris..." 

The meek girl had finished writing the phony hall pass and turned around to see Susie cornering Kris by the lockers. 

She quickly writes something on her notebook before approaching the two and tapping the tall girl's shoulder. 

"What is it?" Susie softens her voice down and turned to the (h/c) girl. 

She shows Susie her notebook, which the words wrote, "I finished writing the forged pass." 

"That's great, lemme wreck this freak first—" 

She inhales a shaky breath, "Y-you... let go.. of them... f-first." She finishes, her words trembling as her face reddens from embarrassment, holding her notebook tightly which covered her mouth when she spoke. 

Kris widens their eyes as this was the first time they heard her spoke. 

Susie turned her body to hers, she remembers how she only talked when the two of them were alone in her room, but even then she only spoke bits and pieces of words. She lets out a 'Hmph!' then turns back to Kris. 

"Kris," She began, letting her grip go. "You've got a good mother. It'd be a shame to make her bury her child." 

(Y/n) writes something on her notebook again and showed it to Kris. "I'm sorry for pulling you in this mess."

"It's fine." He mouthed, as he's unsure whether she understands sign language or not. She just nods at his word.

"Alright, let's get this over with." Susie monotonely cheered, as (Y/n) closes her notebook. 

"We'll get more chalk, mosey back to class, and then, Kris... You'll do our project." 

Before he could open his mouth, Susie had already spoken over him. "Don't even bother answering. In case you forgot, none of your choices matter."

"Come on. Let's go (Y/n).... you too, freak." The girls began walking away, as Kris takes his time to take a breather from the lizard girl's torment. 

Lagging behind from the two, both of them had noticed how achingly slow he is. 
"Holy shit, you walk fucking slower than she does." 

(Y/n) pouted at her comment. It was kinda true eitherway, as her muscular friend would always drag her to wherever they would go. 

Like that one time where her sister, Mercedes, brought both of them to a casino—which was a really bad idea, as (Y/n) gambled a quarter of what was inside of her own credit card. 

The two of them just ran and ran, hoping to escape Mercedes' wrath. 

"What? Not used to not getting your hand held?" She snickered. 

Kris doesn't say anything and looks over to (Y/n), first time they'd ever seen her pout too, which was cute in a way.

They just continued on their way, reaching the supply closet eventually. 

"Well, here's the closet, too bad, we all were just starting to have fun." 

(Y/n) slowly opens the doors, only to be met with a never-ending darkness. She takes a few steps back, noticing the menacing aura that seeps out from the abyss. 

"...Hey, guys, is it me or is it really dark in there?" Susie notes, with an agitated look on her face.

"I'll go in first." were the words that are written on the quiet girl's notebook. 

Both Susie and Kris looked at her astonished, 'Such bravery!' 

She's used to the dark, it used to scare her a lot, but when she went away to no one knows where for a few months, it just didn't. And it kinda freaked Susie out. 

Before (Y/n) could even enter, Susie yanked her away, "Who knows what kind of things lurk in there, so...." She glances towards to Kris, "Kris, you go in first." 

"I'd rather not.." 

"Fine! Since you're such a wimp, we'll just go in together!

The three of them enter, only to see papers scattered across the floor. 

"Huh, should've went with (Y/n)'s intuition." Susie mutters to herself, as the other two looked around the room. 

They begin feeling up the walls, finding a light switch. 

"Weird... there's no switch, maybe it's further in." They continue to walks around the darkness, but this supposed 'Supply Closet' was odd, why was it so long? Are there seriously no walls here? 

(Y/n) wanted to note about the strange closet, since they were in the dark, no one could read what was on her notebook. With a shaky breath, she tries to speak again. "S-something's... wrong..." She breaths in, "W-with... this closet." Despite how hushed her voice was, both of them managed to hear it. 

Her childhood friend couldn't help but to agree with her. "She's right, I think this closet is fucking broken, if Alphys wants chalk, she can get it herself." 

They backtrack their way towards to the door, but then...

It was slammed closed. 

Susie rushes over to the door, trying to pry it open, but it was useless. She then starts to bash on the doors, "HEY, OPEN THIS DOOR, THIS ISN'T FUNNY!" 

The ground begins to shake, instinctively, (Y/n) grabs onto Kris as he was the one closest to her. 

The floor seems to fall apart, falling onto the deep abyss. Susie back away, hitting Kris in the process which caused him to grip on the quiet girl even tighter. 

As the last tile fell, all of them soon came following after. (Y/n) buried her face on the crook of his neck, as falling into the abyss wasn't one of the things she was prepared for. 

The scene fades to black. 

 

 

Seems like she landed on something soft.... or was it someone? She looks at down at her victim, pale blue skin, navy blue hair to match it, and they were wearing a knight get up. Uh oh. she must've killed this person when she fell on them. 

But hold up, her usual outfit was replaced with a mecha-like armor, she also noticed that she was wearing a visor of some sorts, she pulled it off and stared at it, there was a giant rose insignia just above the fox-like eyes that were placed where her eyes were. 

Since the person that's beneath her is still asleep, or presumably dead, she thought to use her cry of distress so Susie can easily find her. What... was it again? Oh yeah! it was, 
"Nya."

The person thats she's sitting on bolted up, seemingly woken up from her noises. They stared at each other for a solid few minutes, after (Y/n) realizes that the person she was sitting on was Kris. Embarrassed, she stands up from her sitting place, which was his lap, and turned away. 

"...Did you.. just say 'Nya'?" 

As Kris asked that, she wanted the earth to swallow her whole. 

A few seconds past by, he just brushed off the stuttering noises she made when she tried to explain. "Nanananananananananana—" He stopped her from trembling when he put a reassuring hand on her shoulder. She follows him with a large distance, watching as he touches a white star.

He looks at her title and info. 

"Lv. 1 Human(?)
For some reason can use MAGIC"

He then looks toward her spells. 

"30% - Faerie Art
Uses both Attack and Magic to do an attack with the speed of light."

Kris glances at her before urging her to follow him. She complies, slowly coming closer to him as this place slightly creeped her out. 

He was her only ticket out of here, and for some reason, he pretty much knew where to go, at least she thought so. 

They continue on their path, but they stopped when they got to a cliff with a slope. 

"Hold on to me." He said, she simply nodded, clinging to him as they went down the slope. 

As they continue on, they were attacked by the weird circle things with the thin body. Those things were throwing pellets at them, one of the bullets almost hitting (Y/n) but she managed to dodge it time. 

The two of them managed to escape the bullet rain without either of them get scraped, what greeted them next was a puzzle. 

Kris looks at the directions as the quiet girl did it. She manages to finish it in a few seconds. They continue on their way. 

Man, who would've known that merging two quiet people together would be this eerily silent. But, it is what it is.

They encounter another slope, Kris offers her again but this time she says no. They go down, with (Y/n) sliding down first. 

She has no way of communication as her notebook was nowhere to be found, so she'll be forced to use her voice from time to time. Even if it might be embarrassing to do so. 

"U-um, Kris, should we check these white bushes?" She suggested in a hushed tone. Kinda surprised that she didn't stutter midway. She looks to see if she had a weapon, and she pulled out a claymore. It looked similar to the one she saw in a RPG game, although she wasn't even sure if she can lift this weapon properly.

She grips on the handle and swung it at the bush, nothing appeared. The both of them proceed to do this to the other bushes as they got to the last one they were greeted by Susie, "H-hey! B... back off! Come any closer and I'll—!" She calms down as she saw the two humans. 

"(Y/n)?! Kris?! Phew...
Hey, don't scare me like that, you dumbass!"

(Y/n) giggles as she puts her weapon away, Kris did the same with his. It was nice hearing her laughter too, he thought.

"...Anyway, enough screwing around, we gotta find a way outta here." Susie looks at her surroundings.
"Ummm... Where is "here," anyway...?"

She snaps her head towards to Kris. 
"It doesn't matter! You got us into this mess, YOU get us out!"

Chapter Text

"Lead the way, Leader." Susie said before Kris started race walking. 

Before noticing the lowkey taunt the boy did, Susie tried to make small talk with the girl to her right. More like bombarding her with questions rather than small talk. 
Such as; "Did Kris do anything to you? If he did I'll snap his spine." 
"Did you get hurt by something? I'll chop 'em to pieces."
And so much more. (Y/n) couldn't help but to frantically shake her head no at her questions.

Finally noticing that Kris has been speed walking this whole time, "WHAT THE—YOU WANT A FUCKIN' RACE, HUH" Susie said before running past him. Shouting "FUCK YOU!" and also hitting him in the process. 

"...It's just us again, huh?" Kris mumbled and slowed down to (Y/n)'s pace. She just nods in response, and everything was eerily silent once again. She was slightly trembling as she was used to Susie's extroverted demeanor rather than Kris' silent and creepy aura. 
It wasn't comforting in the slightest. 

A few seconds later, the two had caught up to Susie. The purple dinosaur just stood there, seemingly looking up at something. "Hey, guys, there's someone up there waving at us. Any idea what they want?" They all looked up, the silhouette was there, standing menacingly. 

In a flash, they had summoned spade-shaped projectiles aimed towards at the group. Kris yanked the quiet girl's arm, pulling her close to him. Keeping her out of harm's way, of course. 
"RUN!!" With that, they started running and the projectiles keep coming toward them. Running past the raining spades hand-in-hand, they drew near to Susie, who was standing close to the edge of the cliff. 
"Down here!" She shouted and jumped down first. Without even asking her, Kris had swept her off her feet and followed after. 

Falling into the deep abyss once again, hiding her yelps as she holds onto him tighter. After a few seconds, they had managed to land safely. 
"You.... can let me g-go now." The girl murmured, slowly letting her grip go. He set her down on the ground, she tries to get used to walk with heels after a while. Not gonna lie, it was embarrassing. 

Finally getting used to her footwear, both proceed to chase after Susie, who had went farther before them. 

Trailing behind the boy with a large distance, she remembers how scared she was of him, well not actually the 'shit their pants' type, but rather the 'please go away' type. All those things she'd heard about him; the dreadful pranks he'd pull on poor Noelle, ....actually, that was the only thing she'd learned about him. She didn't really get to know him better, as she'd freeze up if someone dared to talk to her that wasn't Susie nor her sisters. 
But for some reason, she managed to open up a bit. She finally gets to talk more frequently, sometimes not even stuttering while saying a full sentence. 
Those communication books she'd been borrowing from the librarby finally going to be of use. 

Surely Berdly wouldn't mind if she kept them forever... right? 
Yeah, he probably wouldn't. Especially that he's head over heels for her. What a massive simp. 

That darned bird would always find ways to get her attention, when Alphys wants her to recite something, she's cut off by Berdly who would voluntarily do the recitation for her. (Y/n) naturally assumed that he wanted to get back at her as she's the one who'd topple over him and Noelle as the highest in class. There was this one time during Valentine's day where she received multiple letters, to which Susie guessed that they all came from the same person, the stuck-up, maybe egotistical bird, Berdly. 

They both didn't knew what to do with them so Susie decided to burn them all. (Y/n) felt horrible as she felt that at least some of the letters belonged to others. Now that she reminisces about the letters—she thought that what if one of them belonged to Kris. No, that's just wishful thinking... unless?

Noticing the surroundings around her, seems like they reached to a kingdom of some sorts? She takes off her visor once again and stared at the blue flame. It doesn't take a while for her to notice that Kris has been staring at her, and it fucking creeped her out. 

Putting the visor back on, she walks past him and eventually found her childhood friend at the place's entrance. She lightly tapped her shoulder, the purple dinosaur jumped a bit and then suddenly was relieved. "Kris died? Sweet." She said with a grin on her face. 
Said boy catches up to the two girls.

"Nevermind, he's still alive." They both look at him, as Kris just stands there, patiently waiting. 

"Got any idea what in the actual fuck this place is?"
The two humans shake their head.

"...me neither. Wonder if there's anyone in that building over there." Susie said then looks over at the castle looming over the kingdom. A black geyser emerges from it, piercing endlessly into the sky. 
Kris walks over to the castle in the distance, seeing another white star. 

(Y/n) and Susie followed him with a gigantic gap. The three of them enter the worn out castle, the quiet girl notices some of the cracks on the wall and how dusty the area is in general. 
"A castle...?" Why the hell is there a castle inside a supply closet...?" Susie pondered out loud, just before a voice boomed before them. 

"Welcome, heroes...!" 

"Who's there!?" Susie calls out then grabs (Y/n)'s wrist and pulls the poor girl to her side.

"Do not be alarmed... I am not your enemy. Please come forward, all of you..."

The three teenagers glance toward each other before proceeding on. There, they meet a cloaked figure. 

"Welcome. I am the Prince of this Kingdom... The Kingdom of Darkness." The (H/c) girl takes a glance at the cloaked person and thought "Is this some kind of Kingdom Hearts reference????"

"Kris, Susie, (Y/n)… There is a legend in this land. A legend that one day, three Heroes of Light will arrive, and fulfill the ancient prophecy, foretold by time and space." (Y/n) is a bit surprised, looks like that she's a very very very important person.... at least she thinks so by the gist of what they were saying. 

"Please, Heroes... Listen to my tale..." 
Kris and (Y/n) nod in reply.

"Very well then..."

Once upon a time, a Legend was whispered among shadows. 

It was a legend of Hope.
It was a legend of Dreams. 

It was a legend of Light.
It was a legend of Dark. 

This is the legend of DELTA RUNE

For millennia, Light and Dark have lived in balance,
Bringing peace to the World.

But if this harmony were to shatter...
A terrible calamity would occur.

The sky will run black with terror,
And the land will crack with fear.

Then, her heart pounding... 
The Earth will draw her final breath.

Only then, shining with hope...
Four Heroes appear at Worlds' edge.

Two Humans, A Monster and A Prince from the Dark. 

Only they can seal the fountains,
and banish the Angel's Heaven.

Only then will balance be restored,
And the world saved from destruction.

Today, the Fountain of Darkness—
The geyser that gives this land form—
Stands tall at the center of the kingdom.

But recently, another fountain has appeared at the horizon...
And with it, the balance of Light and Dark begins to shift...

"Kris, Susie, (Y/n)... Thank you for listening to my long tale. I deeply believe you three are the Heroes of the Legend." But what if their guess is wrong at some point? They'll be perpetually stuck with two Humans that don't speak often and a Dinosaur that wreaks havoc at any given time. 

"—That despite whatever enemies you may face... You three have the Courage to Save The World."
She doesn't have the guts to talk to strangers, but saving the world?! She definitely doesn't have enough guts to be able to achieve that.

"Delta Warriors! Please, won't you accept your destiny...?" The cloaked person pleaded.
To which Susie replies; "Uhhh... Nah." 

"W...what?"

"Me? Some kind of hero or something...? You've got the wrong person." (Y/n) nods in agreement, as they were a weird bunch to get to be chosen as "The Heroes of Prophecy"

"B-but Susie, without you, the... The world will..!"

"So what? If the whole world gets destroyed... It's none of my damn business." The dino shrugs, "Might even be kind of fun, honestly."

The unknown person suddenly became quiet. Susie then turns to Kris, "Anyway, Kris... If YOU wanna play pretend with this weirdo, stick around." Holding her childhood friend's wrist once again, "(Y/n) and I are gonna find a way outta here. Smell ya losers later."

"Susie, (Y/n)... Wait!" Before they could continue, laughter ensues from the corner of the room, a figure on a bicycle barging in and hitting the Prince in the process.

"Ho ho ho!" They(?) laughed, (Y/n) thought of how they were similar to the skeleton guy who just moved in with his brother, what was their name again..? Oh yeah, it was Snas. 

"The heroes are already running away... And they didn't even know I was here." A childish grin was on their face, as they stuck out their tongue.
"My dad's gonna make me Son of the Month!" 

"Who the fuck are you?!' 

"I'm..." He twirled around with his bike, "The bad guy."

You guys probably don't have to beat this kid into a pulp, right?

Notes:

bless the archived jerma streams, some mofo borrowed my switch so I'm thankful for jedna

Chapter Text

"You clowns want to seal our Dark Fountain, huh!? And—still picturing you guys as clowns—Save The World from Eternal Darkness, huh!?" The three teenagers just stared at the chubby kid with a bike. No reaction emitting from them or what so ever.

"Eh." Susie nonchalantly replied. Still no reaction from the three teenagers. Their expressions on their faces is similar to the moyai emoji.

"Don't try to deny it..! We both know you'll go East! It's your only way home!" Thanks for the directions strange chubby blue guy. Before Susie could even head in that direction, "But I, Lancer, won't let you go there! And I've got a flawless two step plan to ensure it." Lancer said, sticking out his blue tongue once more.

"Step one. I thrash you. Step two. You lose!" 

Susie smiles a bit. Well, its more of a smile of mockery rather. "Hmm, nice plan, kid." 

"R-really...?"

"Yeah, actually... mind if we use it on you instead?" With those words, the two teens beside (Y/n) suddenly drew out their weapons which also made her unsheathe hers. She wonders if she can corporate a dancing fighting style with her claymore. Focus, (Y/n)! No time for unnecessary things, focus on the battle (Y/n)!

Looking over to the boy to her left, he ordered her to compliment with him???? What??????? Compliment the enemy????? Is he out of his goddamn mind??????????
With a deep sigh, the quiet girl hesitantly obliges. 

* Kris tells Lancer that he can't tell the difference between his clothes and his body.
* (Y/n) just stares at Lancer while trembling.

Noticing (Y/n)'s somewhat terrified, shaking stature, Susie hits Kris on the back of his head. "You dumbass! You know (Y/n) can't talk to strangers that well! Let alone to an enemy!"

* Lancer seems flattered...
* His ATTACK POWER went down!

Susie attacks Lancer, dealing 109 damage to him. 
(Y/n) winces as the chubby boy got hit, but to Lancer it was nothing. 

"Oh! My feelings are doing wheelies! Sweet wheelies!" He cheered out, then proceeding to run over Kris. He moves away in time, as Lancer U-turns back to his spot.

Susie admires at the axe on her hand. "Dunno how I got an ax but, like, that's cool."

The pale blue boy orders (Y/n) to try and compliment the chubby boy once again. 

* Kris tries to compliment Lancer again...
* But he sees it as insincere.
* His ATTACK POWER goes back up!

Looking over to the girl to her right, she watches as Susie hits Lancer again. The quiet girl still doesn't know how Lancer sucks it in like its nothing.

"Did you not realize I can mask my self-esteem levels?" He says before trying to run over (Y/n), she didn't manage to dodge in time and got hit by one or two of his spade bullets.
* Susie's ATTACK POWER goes up!
wait wha—

Kris orders (Y/n) to warn Lancer of Susie's attack together with him.
What. Warn the enemy??????? What????????
Tiredly sighing, she hesitantly obliges the quiet boy's order.

* Kris warns Lancer of Susie's attack.
* (Y/n) is trembling furiously while muttering...random words?

"A-a-a-attack... You..."

* (Y/n) meant to say, "Susie's gonna attack you!"

Regardless of what she said, the chubby kid still got the hint. He readies himself for the purple dinosaur's attack. 
She hits...! And she misses! 

Susie hits the pale blue boy on the back of his head again. 
Kris looks at her accusingly, she just shrugged and went, "Whoops." 

"So what are you guys doing after this???" He asks then tries to hit Susie with his bike. She moves to the side in time, as Lancer returns to his spot. 

Kris orders (Y/n) to warn Lancer again. She just nods tiredly in response. 

* Lancer laughs at the idea he would need their help!

Susie tries to hit him again but she misses. 
"Ho ho ho ho!" He cackles, somewhat similar to how Jack Frost laughs, then again they both kinda look alike. 
This time he aims for Kris, running at a mile towards him. Kris moves away in time and deflected the spade pellets with his shield. 

"Wait! Wait a second!" Lancer cried out, doing a time-freeze symbol with his chubby hands. 
"My bike's running out of fuel..! Alright, you punk-a-roos! You had the luck of the draw this time, but... Next time, the losers will be YOU!!!" He stuck out his blue tongue at them. 
"Hahaha!! Bye, losers!! I gotta get home before dinner!!!" He announces before speeding away.


The three teenagers sheathe their weapons and on cue, the hooded prince comes back. 

"Are you guys ok...?" He worriedly asks, the two humans just nodded in response. 

"Um, allow me to introduce myself more properly, I am—" 

"Jeez, can you take off that hood? I can barely hear you under there."

"U-ummm, alright..." The prince hesitantly says as he pulls down his cloak, revealing a goat with a mage-esque outfit. 
(Y/n) seems eager to hug him, since he looks so fluffy as fuck. She trembles in place to fight off her urge to hug him and pet him. 

"Hello everyone. I'm Ralsei." He waved. 
"Kris, Susie, (Y/n)... It's ever so wonderful to meet you! I'm certain we're going to become great friends, and—"

"Best way to leave is East, right?" Susie says, cutting him off midway.

Ralsei nods in response, "Yes! That's where we'll..."

"Got it." She turns away from the three, "See ya at school, Kris." then exits the castle.
Wait a second... Did she really... DID SHE REALLY FORGOT ABOUT (Y/N)??!?!?

"Um, I suppose it's just the three of us, then..." He walks over to the two humans, noticing that the (h/c) girl is shaking in fear(?) this whole time. 
"Are you.. okay, (Y/n)? You're trembling... anything bad happened?" 

She shakes her head no. Kris seems to understand on what she wanted to do. 
"She...wants to hug you, I think." He pondered out, with the girl to his right nodding at his words.
* Kris' UNDERSTANDING has increased by 3!

"Oh! I see!" The prince understands, nodding in amusement. "You can hug me anytime, (Y/n)!" 
She looked at him with big eyes, slightly trembling as she wraps her arms around him. And as she expected, he's really fluffy. 
The hug lasted for a few seconds before letting go of the fluffy prince of darkness.

"Kris, (Y/n), I'm a prince, but... I, um, currently don't have any subjects. I've been waiting alone here... Um...my whole life for you three to arrive." He says in a somber tone, then lighting up, "So, I'm really happy to meet you guys. I hope we can be good friends." Ralsei smiles, as (Y/n)'s pressuring aura slowly dissipates. 

He looks over to the exit. "Let's try to find Susie. She must be to the southeast." He turns back to the two humans, "You can lead the way, Kris!"
Kris leads the way, the party leaving the worn-out castle. 
Ralsei, the lonely prince, is now their ally. 
The power of fluffy boys shines within you. 

Notes:

lmao imagine y/n singing persona songs specifically the P5 ones then reaching the part where it says about being free/cut your strings/more than just a puppet and it just sends kris to immediate ptsd

Chapter 4: "Thank you."

Summary:

(Y/n) receives a book.

Notes:

i once had an idea for kris, i'd make their personality here (this fic only) similar to shiki tohno's (like having episodes of going feral and stuff) but then uh, i literally can't just make them slice someone into 17 pieces.

since monsters inevitably turn into dust and the only other person that fits the criteria is y/n and her sisters so uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

also tw// s3gsu4l r3marks, basically some nasty shit

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Trailing behind Kris, the three of them eventually reach a training room of some sort? A single dummy stood there, which looked a lot like Ralsei. 
Said mage stopped in his tracks, then called out to the two humans. 
"Oh! Kris, (Y/n)! It's the training dummy I made!" 

He smiles at the two, "Now seems like a great chance to prepare for the enemy. Would you guys like me to teach you how to fight?" They already somewhat got the gist of it, but it wouldn't hurt to learn more from someone. They nodded at his offer, "Ok! Get ready to fight, you two!"


"See that heart, Kris?" pointing towards the shining red heart at the center of a green box. Funny, she didn't notice that before. 
"That's your soul, the culmination of your very being! Within, it holds your WILL... your COMPASSION...and the FATE of the world. If it gets hit, you and your friends will lose HP. If everyone's HP reaches 0, we'll lose the battle." He explained, as Kris just keeps nodding at his every word. "So, please take care to avoid the enemy's attack."

"Ready? Let's try dodging!" 
Kris got the heart to avoid the bullets, Ralsei praised them for it. "Great job, Kris! You're a natural!" 

"Anyhow after the enemy attacks, it's our turn! First, I'll teach you how to fight. Though fighting is unnecessary in this world... There's no harm in a thorough lesson!"
Kris selects on the ACTs button rather than the FIGHTing button. There, he saw multiple choices, the options are; Check, Hug, Hug Ralsei, and Hug (Y/n). All of the choices are definitely... something. He presses on the Hug (Y/n) option as he thought it would make her hug the dummy but instead—he walked up to her and wrapped his arms around the poor girl.
* Kris hugs (Y/n). 

She was trembling... in embarrassment and there was an evident blush on her face.
"K... Kris?! Ummm, I don't think, um...This is what you're supposed to be doing..." 

Truly, the illusion of free will. 
He lets go of her and mutters a meek "...sorry." 

Clicking on the ACTs option once more, he presses the Hug choice.
* Kris hugs the DUMMY.

"Huh...? Kris, you'd rather hug it out than fight?" Ralsei queried him, but then soon came to a conclusion on his own. "You know what, that's fine! We don't need to fight!"

"Okay, let's try defending next!" Ralsei cheered.
Kris whipped out his pinkish shield, (Y/n) pondered for a moment what to use a shield then thought of using her claymore in a blocking stance. 
"Great job, you two! Now that you've gathered TP—How about spending that TP on mine or (Y/n)'s spells?" 

He nods then orders Ralsei to cast Pacify on the DUMMY.
* Ralsei casts PACIFY!

"Great job! Normally, we would have won the battle by now. I have just a little more to teach you guys! Remember how you hugged the dummy using with ACTs?" The prince said, pointing towards the dummy the boy hugged not too long ago. 
"—Because of that, its name turned yellow! Now by using the SPARE command, you can win!"
Understanding the goat boy's words, he acts accordingly. 

...He ordered (Y/n) to spare the Ralsei-look-alike dummy.
bruh moment.

Sighing tiredly for the Nth time, the mecha-knight girl obeyed his order. 
* (Y/n) spared Dummy! 

"Great job, you two! That'd be the end of a real battle!" Ralsei cheered, clapping his hands at them.
"I'm really happy I had the chance to teach you both!"


"Oh, that was fun! You both are wonderful students!... and, er, in case you need a refresher, I..." He trailed off pulling out something from his pockets.
"Here! I wrote a manual for you three!" He beamed, handing out a book for each of the two.

An idea sparks from the girl, she could use this manual as a substitute for her notebook! But uh, what about the pencil? 

Kris, fully understanding (Y/n) from her mere aura alone, asks in her stead. 

Kris, you blessed soul! 

"...Do you have a pencil?" He asks the goat boy and Ralsei wonders, why would they need a pencil for? After thinking about it for a few seconds, he understands...at least he thinks so. Patting on his pockets, he pulled out a pen rather than a pencil. 

"How about a fountain pen? I don't have pencils on me now, sorry." Ralsei apologetically smiled, waving a pen towards them. 

"That'll do, I guess." Kris murmured, accepting the pen then passing it towards to (Y/n) who was just staring at them this whole time. She stared at their face, then to the pen, she proceeds to do this for seven consecutive times. Finally acquiring a pen, she begins to write down on the manual that barely made sense. 

"Thank you." It simply read. 
Before Kris and Ralsei could even speak, she begins to write more down on the book.
"Well... where do we go next?"

"Oh! We'll just head farther east until we reach a giant door!" 

"Alright then, let's go." 

With Kris leading the way, the prince of the dark and his mecha-knight came soon following after. Feeling a sense of comfort seeping out from Ralsei, (Y/n) takes off her visor as the area it was covering was getting even more sweatier by the second. Ralsei looks at her eyes with great surprise, though he didn't say anything directly to the girl, she can literally feel his admiring gaze.

Reaching to the great door, she notices that door was left ajar. Soon, Ralsei noticed too. "Oh my! The Great Door is opened?! No wonder Lancer was able to come through..."
He paused for a moment then glanced at the two knights. "Kris, (Y/n), once we pass through this door...Our adventure will really begin. A journey foretold exactly by the prophecy...But, I believe, YOUR choices are important, too. This world is full of all kinds of people. In the end, how we treat them makes all the difference. So let's try our best to get by without FIGHTing." He smiled, as the mecha-girl to Kris' left suddenly feels a sudden change of aura from him. 

"If we can manage to do that...I believe this tale may have a happy ending. Otherwise, I fear that...you may not...find the result favorable." Ralsei looks up and sees their faces more tense than they ever were.
"...Oh, I'm sorry! Is that too much to ask?"

"I can handle it." Kris answers rather forced, its as if it weren't his own voice.
(Y/n) notices the change but she doesn't note about it and brushes it off.

"I knew you were heroes the moment I saw you both. Let's try our best, alright?" Ralsei smiles at them, following the two knights and closes the giant door on their way out.

Presented to them were trees that were similar to cherry blossom trees. (Y/n) stares at them with amazement. 
With the door closed behind them, their adventure will truly begin...
The power of adventure shines from within.


From the other side of the screen, someone around their late teens stares at the girl with fascination.
Her innocent smile, her big sharp eyes and the air around her that simply seemed like home. 

Everything about her seems so intoxicating, even though she hasn't done anything that would deem as such.
".reh gnikcom m'I ekil reh revo lla eugnot ym nur ot tnaw I"
If she were a real person, they would do anything to for her.
".ot derised I ekil tsuj ,trapa reh ecils ot tnaw I"
They were the predator knight and she was the prey princess.
".reh gnirovas m'I ekil nwod reh kaerb ot tnaw I"

Even though they really can't do anything to her outright, the only way to get the message to her was through Kris.
A sadistic smile was on their face. Seems like they have to play along so they wouldn't notice the change.
".tnaw I sa hcum sa reh ■ ot tiaw t'nac I"

Notes:

on second thought i should make the player/soul have shiki tohno's feral and weirdo side and has a gigantic crush on y/n

and they make kris do advances on said girl

instead of like shiki on tsukihime turning into a deranged serial killer when w/o the player's influence (since most of the bad endings involve him being that), kris will be the opposite of that, w/ the player's influence, they somewhat turn into a mass murderer

 

and no im not hinting at a possible alternative route at chap 2... unless

Chapter 5: Dreaming a little of you.

Summary:

"It's...okay, I-it's just a...nightmare."

Notes:

will probably make a separate twitter acct for art related shit for this fanfic, then again, i don't really post that much on twitter. i just scroll and scroll

also some quick sketch i made of y/n w/ the visor since im a bit wobbly rn on drawing eyes

Chapter Text

Something was off about Kris lately. Although the (h/c) girl couldn't figure out what exactly it was, she had the idea that it might've involved her for his sudden shift of tone, expression, and mood. 
For starters, he'd gotten more and more close to her, too close to her liking to be frank. 
There were also certain times where she'd caught him staring at her for long periods of time. It would take her to say; "Anything wrong?" for him to snap out of his thoughts. In actuality, she would smack him with the manual to get him to his senses.

Ralsei doesn't recommend that,  as he fears that Kris might get ticked off by it. In reality, he doesn't care. He's perfectly fine with (Y/n) beating him to his senses. 
Plunging deeper and deeper into this strange world, they'd arrived in an area, Ralsei eyes a sign with messy handwriting smeared all over it. "Oh! A sign! Wonder what it says..."

"Enemies ahead! You're gonna die!
- signed, LANCER"

Well, thanks for the reminder.

Kris and co. encountered an enemy, and the battle was quick because Lancer had only sent one after them.

(Y/n) spots another sign, and Lancer's all too familiar handwriting was on it.

"If you're reading this... I guess you're dead.
- signed, LANCER."

Uh huh.

Advancing farther into this field, a sudden soreness came over the (h/c) girl. Ralsei noticed the said girl slowing down her pace, following behind him and Kris with a large gap.

"Anything wrong, (Y/n)?" 

She perks up form the sudden call, just before she pulls out the manual. 
"It's just that... my soles hurt."

"Oh! That so? Can you take off your heels off somehow?" Ralsei suggested, pointing towards the blue 5-inch heels she wore. 
She tries to take them off but then soon realizes that the heels are connected to the leggings.
"I don't think I can."

Kris looks toward the two with blank expression on their face per usual. As if someone was pulling on their strings, he walked towards to them with a tinge of reluctancy.
He knew what the puppeteer wants to do. And...for some reason they just want to do some wholesome stuff. Kris exhales gladly, Thank god they're not thinking of doing anything brash.

"...We...can take a break if you want." He breathed out, trying to find his voice as he did so. 

Ralsei takes the quiet girl's wrist on his hand, "Come on! Let's take a nap on that tree over there!" The fluffy goat boy cheered, as (Y/n) nodded and hummed in response.
Both of them sat down beside the tree, Kris came following after, sitting beside the quiet mecha girl, listening to Ralsei chatter to them both. 
After a few minutes, both Ralsei and (Y/n) fell asleep, with said goat boy wearing her visor and (Y/n) with his glasses.

He felt his eyelids getting heavy too so he thought, it wouldn't be bad to get some shut-eye.
Slowly leaning his head to (Y/n)'s shoulder, and finally closed his eyes.


"ーHuh?"
An incredibly idiotic noise. The sound came from his own throat, but it didn't feel like it was his.

The sound of liquid hitting the marble floor. 
A sudden dizziness hits him, his breathing getting more ragged by the second.

17 intricate pieces of something laying in front of them. A red liquid spreads across the marble floor, like someone overturned a bucket of water.

The choking stench of blood. 

The cuts are extremely clean, so her entrails don't spill out.
Only that red color spreads across the floor.

How strange.

There is nothing in this room. Nothing but the girl's severed body and him, standing there dumbfounded.

"ーWhat... What exactly had happened?"
He said out exasperatedly, his bloodied fingers running through his hair. 

He desperately tries to make a vivid picture of what happened, staring at the girl's all-too familiar (H/c) hair with the edges tainted in that murky red puddle.

The knife. HIS knife slicing through her body as if he were just tracing lines.

Through the neck, back of the head, from the right eye to the lips, upper right arm, lower right arm, right ring finger, left elbow, left thumb, left middle finger, left breast, from the rib to the heart, from the stomach to the abdomen in two places, left groin, left thigh, left leg, left toe, all of them.

The excessively vivid red corrosion.
In his hands he grips the knife, the murder weapon.

"She's...dead."

Of course she is. 

If she survived this, she wouldn't be human.

"Why...?"

There's nothing to ask.

Just now, YOU did it with your own hands.
Kris' own hands cleanly and instantly cut apart this innocent girl that just happened to go to the same school as him.

"I...killed her?"

Yes, without a doubt.

"There's no reason for me to do this. So it's not real, it can't be. But I had no reason from the start. So it's not real, it can't be. There's nobody here but me. It seems like there was one other person a second ago, but now it's just me. So it's not real, it can't be. But I had no motive, there was no motive, I didn't even feel like it, I wasn't, I wasn't sane. No, I was never sane in the first place. So it's not real, it's not, it can't be, it can't be, it can't be一"

ーThe red blood creeps around the bottom of his foot.

".......Ah." 
Surprised, he lifts his shoe. But you were too late.

Like coal tar, her blood makes a thread connecting the pool on the floor to my foot.
Ahhhh, AAAHHH, it's, red, blood.

Because you shred them to pieces, that repulsive color continues to spread.

"ーIt wasn't...me."
THAT'S RIGHT, THIS CAN'T BE REAL

It's not real. It's not real. It's definitely not real, it can't be real.

This has to beー

• It has to be a nightmare.
• ...No, this is the reality I've wrought.

...this is just a bad dream.

But somehow, this scent of blood smells so horribly real.

"...That's...wrong..."
Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wrong Wroー


He wakes up with (Y/n) shaking him violently, seems like she heard all the words he'd been crying out about.

"...you okay?" She asked, as Ralsei's glasses are still perched up on her face. 
Kris doesn't reply, as he's still shaken by the nightmare.

She stares at him worriedly then making up her mind, she hugged him tightly, trying to soothe him of his worries.
With a shaky breath, "It's...okay, I-it's just a...nightmare."

He should feel safe by now, but he couldn't, why should he, when the person comforting him right now is the same one he utterly murdered in that dream.

After a few minutes of comforting him, she finally lets go. As Ralsei slowly wakes up, and sees both (Y/n) and Kris a bit disheveled.
"O-oh, I'll leave you two alone...!" Frantically returning the mecha girl her visor and her handing his glasses back.

No words were uttered to each other, Kris stands up and extends his hand to (Y/n), which she accepts and he pulls her up.

They continue on, eventually running into Lancer as said chubby boy stands next to a sign. 

"Hey, don't read this sign! It's a work in progress!
-signed, LANCER"
"Ho ho ho...if it isn't my three favorite people. SIKE! You guys aren't even in my top five!!!" He joked, sticking his tongue out. 

"Lancer! Where's Susie?"

"You mean the purple girl...? Ho ho ho....You fools! You're too late to stop me...!"

"What did you do?" Ralsei queried him, raising his brow at his statement.

"Hahaha... It was SO simple! She beat me up, so I ran away...!"

Ah yes, typical Susie.

"That's a bit anticlimactic..." Ralsei muttered, kind of disappointed. 

Kris and co. then went south, where they found a tree with some star-shaped fruit(?) hanging low, ready to grab. As Ralsei and (Y/n) read the sign, Kris started to pick some, fortunately, they managed to grab two Dark candies.

As Kris stock the items into their pocket, the three of them back track then headed east. Lancer called out to them, seemingly to threaten them. 
"Hey, if you head that way, my troops will thrash you."

"Is that a threat?" Ralsei shot back.

"I prefer to think of it as an invitation." He smiled, sticking out his tongue once more.

With the invitation in mind, they proceed further, where they encountered a duo of Rudinns. The fight ended quickly as how one of (Y/n)'s sisters burn their own cooking. 

The quiet mecha girl just wants this journey to be over as soon as possible so she can cook some food for the stray animals she usually encounters.

Chapter 6: Flatter-EX

Summary:

"All the Hathys fell in one swoop!"

Notes:

omo omo i made a playlist for this fic just for fun lololol

its not finalized yet tho

(See the end of the chapter for more notes.)

Chapter Text

The gang encountered a person presumably sobbing while muttering words, "Mama miba..." under their breath. And to their left was an eaten cake, is it...burning? WHY IS THERE SMOKE COMING OUT OF IT WHAT-

"Mama miba! I'm Topchef! My latest cake worked me to exhaustion!" He said, spinning then crying after. 
"So I took a little nap...But, Mama miba! A scary noise woke me up! A beast was hunched on the table, eating the cake like an animal!"
Sounds like Susie alright.

"I spritzed it with water, and it hissed and ran off! But, my wonderful cake is..."

"Aww, Kris, (Y/n), that sounds like Susie! We must be going the right way! Let's try to keep her out of any more trouble!" Ralsei told them, to which they both nodded in affirmation. 
"M-M-Mama miba! M-M-Mama SHIBA! You know that beast!? Please don't come back..." Topchef cried once again, before spinning. 

Kris approaches the remains of the smoldering cake, then takes a piece of it with him.

They continue on forward, encountering a Rudinn and a Hathy which Kris ordered (Y/n) to flirt the Hathy with him. 
The girl stared at him with the aura of "Are you fucking serious?!" before obliging. 
Fortunately all she did was make a heart-shape with her hands and it ultimately swept Hathy off from her feet. 

Ralsei spares the enemies then the fight ended. Kris eyes another Dark Candy tree, which he grabs said candies from it. He gave one to (Y/n) and the other to Ralsei.
They both ate the candy which Ralsei notes that it tastes like marshmallows. Though, (Y/n) didn't say anything, "Looks like she enjoyed it." The fluffy boy notes.
* Ralsei's UNDERSTANDING leveled by 2!

They encounter a timed puzzle, looks easy at first glance, "Check the clock. In order to solve this puzzle, you'll have to hurry."
Makes total sense. 

Kris steps on a lit tile, then two other tiles lit up. (Y/n) and Ralsei stepped on it and all three tiles lit up. Kris steps on the last one then all the spikes blocking their way is gone.
"Nice teamwork guys!!" Ralsei cheered, with (Y/n) quietly cheering behind him. 

Exiting the puzzle room and continuing on forward, they're met with a sign and with Lancer's handwriting on it.
"Behold! The Maze of Death! Prepare to GET LOST, clowns!!!!
 - signed, Lancer."

This...doesn't seem like a place where you'd get lost easily, though.

They continue on forward before encountering another sign left by Lancer. 
"Feeling lost yet!? You must be UTTERLY HELPLESS among these twists and turns! Your sense of direction won't save you now!
- signed, Lancer."

The party then went south and then west, finding another sign left behind by the chubby kid. Kris takes one glance at it before continuing on.
He discovers a chest, once opening it he finds a tattered white ribbon. 

"That ribbon is Armor, Kris! It increases defense! Why don't you try equipping it on yourself or (Y/n)? I think it'd look great on both of you!" 
Kris nods at the goat boy's suggestion, approaching (Y/n) with the ribbon on his hands. She steps back a bit and he takes a step forward.

To the untrained eye, this would seem that something sinister is happening.
Kris motions her to turn around and then tying her (h/c) hair into a half up with the ribbon. After tying it, he steps back to admire it.

"...You know I can do it myself, you can just tell me to do so." Were the words written on the book, as she hides her face using it.
The quiet boy faintly smiles as he noticed the tips of her ears going red. 

Ralsei observes the two and giggles to himself. No matter how quiet the two of them may seem, they were massive DORKS too. 

It wasn't after a while before they even encounter Lancer. 
"Ho ho ho! Somehow you survived the maze!"
Yeah no cap.

"But don't count your blessings before they hatch...! Let's see how you FARE against this team!" He taunted, before sweeping himself away. 


Four Hathys blocked their path, to which in their reflex caused them to draw out their weapons.

Kris orders the quiet girl to his right to flirt all of the Hathys on field with him.
Aforementioned girl obliges at his command.

* Kris and (Y/n) flirted with the Hathys !

She forms a heart with her hands just before saying, "Yo-You're...all cute." with a small blush visible on her face.

* All of the Hathys fell in one swoop!
* Kris got struck with (Y/n)'s cuteness!
* (Y/n)'s CHARM is maxed!

Ralsei stares at the heart-stricken lot and (Y/n) standing in the midst of it, scared of what she has done.

When it was the Hathys turn, they just circled white hearts around the red heart. 

Lancer gets on the field, interrupting the battle. 
"Hey, why aren't you guys getting thrashed?! You're totally outnumbered!"

Ralsei pinches the bridge of his nose(?), sighing irritably. "You made a team purely of support enemies."
"Their bullet patterns aren't balanced at all. It's like a dinner made out of four glasses of milk."

"...And that's, um...Unusual, somehow?" Lancer pondered out loud. 

"Why don't we talk about this after the battle?" Ralsei said, with passive aggressiveness lacing in his tone.

Kris gets up, and orders the goat boy and mecha girl to spare three-fourths of the Hathys. 
Only a single Hathy remains, they form a white outlined heart and spun it around then stopping at a direction. 
As Kris spared the last Hathy, both Ralsei and (Y/n) cheered him on.

"Great job, Kris! We earned 0 EXP and 92$ !"

Lancer comes bouncing into the scene as if it was on cue. 
"Sweet! How much do I get?"

"You...lost, Lancer. You don't get anything."

"Oh. Can I have some of yours?" 
The chubby boy politely asks and it somehow ticks Ralsei off. 

"No!"

"Fine! Later, losers!" He waved before bouncing away. 

The quiet mecha girl stares at goat boy for a few good seconds before writing something down. 
"Don't be too harsh on Lancer, Ralsei."


They continue on their way and encounter another time-restricted puzzle room.

On their first try it went smoothly up until they needed another person for the fourth lit up tile. 

With the other two occupied with the puzzle, (Y/n) advances forward to the next room, as she heard someone slamming something on a door.
"Ugh, open up you stupid door!" 

A very recognizable voice, one that she usually hears when Susie plays on her computer and just seeing her getting trashed on an online match.

Even though she herself doesn't play games that often, actually, it took her almost 4 months or so to somewhat understand the computer. 
(Y/n) still has a lot to learn though.

Feeling a pressuring stare boring holes on her back, Susie turns back to see her childhood friend, (Y/n) gazing at her intently. 
"(Y/n)! Where you've been? I've been--"
She places her scaly hands on the quiet girl's shoulders, her hands meeting the cold steel that covers said part.

The emotionless knight and the fluffy mage catch up to them, since Ralsei saw her leave the room. "Oh, great. It's YOU TWO."
"Susie! We were ever so worried about you! Um, how did you get past the spikes from before?"

"Oh that? Walked right through 'em." 

Susie glances back at the locked door, "But this door... is a fucking cunt."

"Aww! Don't worry, Susie! It'll be over once we solve the puzzle from the room before."

"Nice. Tell us when you two finish it." 

Looks like Susie doesn't wanna cooperate at all, oh what to do...

Notes:

ok i want to give y/n a nickname :weary: i wanna call her "komishou" since people in japan call people who can't communicate "komishou"
and yes, that's where komi's name came from incase you don't know. "Komi Shou(ko)"

Notes:

Reflected in these eyes is the heat of a distant summer day,
Shaded in the sky is the blood over the moonlight.
Transcending the far reaches of time is my love for your soul,
I'll never let go of this night.
