2P Goat Mom
Again, Salem was lead through the ruins. She played innocent and allowed Toriel to take her home. But it soon became apparent that Toriel had quite a hard time controlling her anger. In one way or another, Salem would say something that set Toriel off and caused her to get killed with magical fire. So Salem was forced to go through the ruins again. And again. And again. Most of the time, she died due to pissing off Tori. Though there was one time here Salem was an idiot and fell onto a few spikes on that bridge puzzle. Getting tired of repeatedly walking through the ruins, Salem just kept silent for the whole trip. Doing so seemed to keep Tori from getting mad, meaning Salem finally managed to SAVE and enter the damned house. Goat mom, still keeping up the charade, took Salem to a rather adorable child's bedroom and advised her to rest. With a practiced smile Salem nodded in thanks to goat mom and walked into the room. Tori practically slammed the door closed behind Salem once she was all the way inside. Jumping a bit in surprise, Salem looked down at Flowey and gave a nervous smile.
"What do ya say to a little nap Flowey?"
"Are you serious?! Why would we let our guard down when- Oh my god you're serious... Yeah, fine... Knock yourself out Salem..."
"Okie-dokie~"
Putting Flowey into a convenient flowerpot off to the side, Salem quickly took a flying leap and flopped onto the bed with a happy sigh. While this wasn't her 'cave', a bed was always one of the best places in the world. At least, they were in Salem's mind. Not even bothering to cover up, she would get too hot that way, Salem stretched and quickly passed out. And she would have stayed passed too, if it weren't for those meddling kids- Um... If Flowey didn't get up in her face and wake her up three hours later. Cracking her eyes open, Salem tried to not punch Flowey in his flower face. With an almost animalistic growl, Salem sat up and glared at Flowey as if he were the devil himself. He was talking about something, but honestly Salem didn't hear a word. Rubbing her eyes, Salem let out a groan and flopped onto her stomach. This seemed to anger the yellow flower, but again, Salem paid him no mind. With limited effort, Salem reached over the edge of the bed and looked through all the stuffed animals piled up.
"What are you even doing?! We have to leave! Are you even listening to me?"
"Nope~ So shush a sec..."
Salem continued to dig around the pile of stuffed animals until she found one she liked. It was a deep red teddy bear with bat wings. It also had fangs, claws, and a little cross bandage sewn on its face. It was really adorable and probably Salem's favorite of the bunch. With a triumphant laugh the girl pulled the toy to her chest and hugged it happily. Flowey was peeved but otherwise kept silent. She wouldn't listen to him anyway, so he didn't waste his breath. Getting off the bed, Salem walked over to Flowey and offered her hand.
"Sorry for ignoring you... I just really hate people waking me up... So let's get going, like ya said. As much as I love 2P Goat Mom, I'm getting tired of the ruins. So let's head to the exit. I'm sure she'll show up before we get too far."
Flowey glared angrily at Salem as she held her hand out to him. But once she said she was ready to leave, he visibly deflated and crawled up to her neck. He wasn't even going to question was "2P Goat Mom" meant. He already knew this girl was weird and didn't especially want her going on a rant. Once he was situated, Salem hugged the stuffed animal to her chest and left the room. Without even looking around, Salem just hopped down the staircase and headed down the dark hallway. It was rather gloomy and creepy, but Salem didn't seem to notice or care. Still, after turning a corner and approaching a large door, not even Salem could keep herself from jumping when a voice boomed behind them.
"And where do you think you're going child?"
"Me? Oh, I'm just leaving. Ya know, running away... Why?"
"Do not mock me human! You will be going nowhere! You think you can-"
"Mom... I'm not mocking you. I'm just trying to not be a pie."
"You insolent child! I took you into my own home! I was going to raise you and care for you! And this is how you thank me?! I should have killed you when I first saw you."
Salem managed to keep her comment of 'holy shit' under her breath and dodged to the side as a fire ball whizzed past her. Carefully tossing Flowey out of the way, Salem looked at goat mom and smiled reassuringly. Trying her best to dodge the attacks, Salem made a point to never even look like she was going to fight back. At first, this angered Toriel, but eventually it seemed to put her off and the monster's attacks weakened. With a sad rawr, goat mom fell to her knees and let Salem win the fight. Walking over to the motherly figure, Salem hugged the woman and rubbed her back.
"I couldn't even save a single child..."
"Shh, it's okay mom. I know you were only trying to protect me. But we both know I can't stay here. Please don't cry."
"You may leave the ruins child. But never come back. I-"
"Don't say that... If you don't want me to visit, then I won't... But you can always call me if you need to okay?"
"Child..."
Without giving goat mom a choice, Salem told Toriel her phone number and made sure she actually added it to her phone.
"You don't have to call me. But please don't delete that number. Let it remind you that someone cares about you... I love you mom. Please, try to be happy..."
After a final hug, Salem picked up Flowey and exited the ruins. She used a SAVE and stepped out into the underground. Once the door closed behind her, Salem promptly sat in the snow and looked at her planty friend.
"Oh my god I thought that would never end..."
Flowey tilted his head and gave Salem a questioning glance. She was so nice just a second ago. Was that all an act? Salem gave a groan and hugged her knees to her chest. Hiding her face from view, Salem took a shaky breath.
"I hate leaving people... I really, REALLY hate leaving people that need help... UGH! Okay, meh FEELS can die now. I can't help people anyway... I'm not exactly in a better mental state... Heheh... Welp~"
Patting her face, Salem quickly stands up but ends up losing her balance. Her vision went a little spotty there, but she paid it no mind. It happened a lot and she hadn't exactly eaten in a few... days... Well damn... Shaking this incredibly vital fact out of her mind, Salem marched forward. As she walked further, she noticed how cold it was. Then again, she was surrounded by snow, so really what was to be expected? Flowey seemed worse off than her, seeing as he was shaking like a leaf. Looking over at the poor flower wrapped around her neck, Salem frowned.
"Hey... Ya know. It would be warmer under my hoodie. Body heat and all that... You can hide under there if you want Flowey..."
"R-really? You don't mind?"
"Not especially. Just don't get any funny ideas buster~ But go right ahead. Flowers aren't made for this kind of weather."
Flowey smiled gratefully and burrowed himself under Salem's warm hoodie. Well, warm-ish. It was only a hoodie to fight off the freezing cold after all. Hugging the red stuffed animal tightly, Salem walked absent mindedly. She should really name the thing, though she had no idea what to name it...
"What would be the most ironic?"
After asking herself this out loud, Salem thought about it for a moment before a sly smile spread across her face. Holding the stuffed animal at arm's length in front of her face, Salem giggled.
"Mercy... I dub thee Mercy."
As to why that was so ironic, you will find out later. Hugging the now named Mercy, Salem turned her attention back to her surroundings. She was nearing a bridge which caused her to quickly stop in her tracks. This was where one would normally meet Sans for the first time. But that was in regular Undertale, not Underfell. Hugging the toy tighter, Salem looked at her surroundings. Maybe she would catch a glimpse of something. But all she saw was snow and dead trees. Frowning a little, Salem turned back to look at the bridge only to see a thing flying at her face. With wide eyes, Salem fell on her ass and managed to dodge the thing as it flew overhead. Blindly grabbing the item that landed only a few inches behind her, Salem stood up and scowled.
"EXCUSE ME?!"
With her eye twitching, Salem threw the item, which she now found to be a bone, in the general direction it came from. Of course, it didn't go very far and simply plopped into the snow only a few feet away from the girl. This only seemed to piss off Salem more and she stomped her foot and clenched her free fist.
"Who in their right mind attacks a defenseless child?! Who the fuck threw that?! Show your sorry ass you piece of shit! You cowardly little doosh! Face me like the prick you are! What do you have to lose? I'm only a little kid right?! Get the HELL out here!"
"heh, wow kid. ya sure have quite a mouth on ya..."
Hearing the voice, Salem spun to face her attacker with an enraged aura. But the moment she saw who it was, all her anger dissipated. With her arms falling slack to her side, Salem found her mouth was hanging slightly open. In front of her was none other than Sans. Underfell Sans to be specific, and dayum was he a hot pile of bones. With a shaky hand, Salem pointed to him and said the first thing that managed to come out of her mouth.
"Holy shit you're hot!"
"uh... what?"
"That's not even fair! A skeleton shouldn't be that sexy! I call hackz! No! How will I tell my parents that I'm a fucking skelesexual!"
"a what?"
"I don't wanna be a skeleton fucker! God forgive me for I have sinned!"
"kid... do you even know what any of that means? you're a fuckin' weirdo, but i suppose a compliment's a compliment after all. why don't you calm down a bit and-"
"AH! NO! Don't come near me with yo glowy ecto-dick! You pedophile! I'm like ten or something! RAAAAAPE!"
Having seeming to have had enough, Sans grunted and frowned. Salem was being a little too loud for his tastes. Without a second thought, he summoned up another bone while Salem was screaming and shot it towards her head. Apparently it hit just the right spot and caused Salem to pass out.
