"Lets see... snacks.... tablet....lantern..."  A red shirted boy in blue pajamas whispered as he began unpacking his various belongings into his family's tent.  It was a warm summer night in the cozy suburban neighborhood where two teens were getting ready to have their long awaited backyard sleepover. The sixteen year old friends had just finished their last day of school and decided it would be a great time to start their yearly backyard summer sleepovers.  "Ugh, I know I'm forgetting something..." Aaron lightly smacked the side of his head trying to remember.  zip   The front flap of the tent rustled as it's zipper began to descend along it's groove.  "Hah! I was wondering when you'd get here!" Aaron grinned as his best friend Brian poked his head through the opening.  "Sorry, my mom was on a war path because I forgot to do my chores before I left." Brian recollected his mother's fury as he crawled into the tent.   "Yeah, but your mom is almost never like that though, at

Zac Mills walked into Lillibrewtian slowly. Realistically there was no reason for him to be this wired or nervous. He'd been coming here regularly for months, and genuinely liked the cafe and its food. But ever since yesterday...   'It's not like I haven't seen her before,' he mumbled to himself as he queued up at the end of the line. 'That wasn't even the first time I've talked to her. So why did it feel important?'   Literally nothing had happened! All he'd done was have a simple, perfectly benign exchange with a woman who worked at the cafe he'd spent his afternoon working at. Why was he so wound up? Why hadn't he stopped thinking about her? Why had he come here first thing on a Saturday morning when he didn't need coffee and had nowhere to be?   'Something must be wrong with me,' Zac sighed, burying his face in his hand to rub his eyes. 'When did I get this weird?'   The line was moving at a steady clip, and since he'd already dragged himself out of bed, he might as well get a

"Why?...Ive tried every single route,every single choice...but yet it happens all the same. Is the kid really THAT unlucky? Or mabye i'm that unlucky. " Flowey said to himself,as he watched a silent Clover passing by yet again. He could almost recite what they were going to say to him. That is until they did'nt. They walked right past him. "Hey! Whats the big idea? Do you walk past everyone you see?" No response. There was something definitely up. They have Never walked past him before. Something also seems...off? Flowey could'nt help but be dumbfounded,he was sure it was almost impossible for a route to be this different to others,even if it was a slightly minor difference. He could only watch as they effortlessly traversed the ruins,snowdin,the wild east,the steamworks,and new home effortlessly,methodical even,until they reached the point of no return. Not once did they even really notice flowey,or need his help. Something really was off. It made flowey slightly uneasy,which in itself was odd,as he did'nt really feel strong emotions like these much anymore. Then he put something together. A lightbulb in his head finally went off. "I think I've seen this before...it's almost like a sense of deja vu....much like what some monsters mentioned or recalled when I toyed with them before..but that begs the question...who could even reset besides me? I thought I was the only one?" Clover. Clover!                                      Clover! Clover finally snapped out of it as their friends stared back at them,pink leaves of a nearby tree flowing in the wind and dancing around them in an almost poetic way. they finally realized....mabye it had to be this way? Was there truly no way to bring a happy ending for everyone. But mabye...just mabye they could give their friends a happy ending. Prologue End. ______________________________ Note from Author:Thank you for reading the first chapter! We also have a comic version on pixiv for those who are unaware!
