Fallen Under

Snowdin- Snow Poff

Flowey craned his neck-stem and looked ahead. "Uh-oh. I really don't like this puzzle."

Frisk continued forward. A very large patch of ice was between them and the next area. There were multiple spots within the ice that were snowy and had X's on them. A button was at the very end of the patch of ice. There was no bridge between it and the snow in the next area.

Frisk sighed and began working on the puzzle. They failed quite a few times. There were many green triangles. Frisk often slid off the puzzle and fell onto a puff of snow. In the center of the small area was a great statue of Papyrus made of snow. A lump of snow with the name 'Sans' written in red marker sat beside it. Flowey smirked. "That is completely them."

Once the puzzle had been completed, they found that the next area was quite interesting. Eight snow poffs littered the ground. One snow poff was in the center of the snowy bridge between that area and the next. A small dog house was at the top-center. "Oh! How cute! I wonder if there's another dog nearby," Frisk thought aloud.

Flowey looked about. "I don't know and I hope we don't find out. We should move quickly."

Frisk nodded. "Okay, okay. I hope it's friendly. I love dogs."

"I could tell," Flowey agreed. "But these guys aren't like dogs on the surface. You should remember that!"

"I know. But... most of them seemed happy. They were just hurt."

Flowey sighed. "Yeah. But... they're still guard dogs. Remember the monster mentality? All monsters know that phrase and hold it close."

Frisk pouted but continued, anyway. "I'll find a way to free everyone and put an end to this meanness."

When they approached the snow poff on the trail, a tail popped out the back. They stopped. A small dog head popped out of the snow and barked. Before Frisk could coo at it, as it was very small and cute, the snow fell away. The dog stood up. It had a small dog head, but it was in a giant suit of armor- at least twice or thrice the size of Frisk. His giant spear reached from the ground to his head.

"Greater Dog- Attack 15, Defense 8. HP 105. This dog thinks that fighting is just play."

The large guard dog barked happily. Frisk yelped and dodged the blurred white attacks sent at them. When the dog stopped barking, he stared at Frisk intensely.

"Um..." Frisk hesitated and pulled out their stick. The dog's eyes grew round and he barked again. The young human launched the stick as far as they could. The dog chased the stick. They played for a short while before the dog grew tired. Frisk dodged another few bark-borne attacks. "Come here, boy!" Greater Dog obeyed in an instant. Frisk laughed and patted his chest. The dog collapsed onto Frisk, sighing happily as they pet him. The dog even began to doze off. However, it caught itself sleeping and jumped up. Frisk jumped back as the dog barked again. This time, Frisk made a snow ball and threw it.

As Greater Dog rushed after it, Flowey inquired, "Why are we playing? We should go while he's distracted!"

"But he wants to play," Frisk complained. Greater Dog brought back a whole pile of snow and dropped it in front of them. Excited, the dog waved his spear at them. It glowed red and phased through Frisk. Frisk, once they'd gotten back on their feet, petted him again. Greater Dog dropped his spear and rolled onto the ground. His legs hung in the air and his tongue lolled.

Frisk giggled and rubbed his neck before getting up. The dog whined for a bit as they left. Frisk hesitated and threw the stick. "I've got to go, now! So, you can have that!"
