this is the first of the Deltarune rewritten stuff that im showing, ever. delta rewritten is basically just the game but written in the way me and my friends understand it. in hometown adventures, they do things in between chapters and before ever finding the dark worlds. if you ever want to help or give ideas, just give me a comment, i'll be happy to make some things change. this is also to celebrate chapters 3 and 4 coming out, they're pretty cool. also not im bad at writing these. Kris looked up with a silent sigh of frustration. This was the week of the festival and Asriel was due to be home, but Kris felt like seeing their brother wouldn’t make anything better. They were feeling beaten and torn, empty and worthless, and they knew Susie did too. Susie walked beside Kris, her purple scales shining in the sunlight. Kris turned to study their unlikely friend, but the glare they received back quickly stopped them. “so, as if we hadn't had enough trouble, raising banishes us until we finish our school project!” Says the angry monster. Kris nodded, and made a motion with their hands. “find another dark world? Nah, ralsei would just arrive there as soon as we do. He always does.” Kris rolled their eyes, though nobody would ever know as their hair hid the top half of their face from view. They were walking down the main street of Hometown, a fitting name for the group of buildings Kris grew up in. The two of them had recently discovered another land, or realm, maybe another universe, known as dark worlds. The first they found was in the school supply closet when they were retrieving chalk which susie had borrowed without returning, (she ate it…) and the second was in the library computer room when they were doing study session with the horribly annoying Berdly, and Noelle who had invited susie specifically. Their third dark world had resided in Kris's own home, for reasons unknown, and mostly with their TV which apparently was sick of being alone. Noelle and berdly had joined them in the second dark world, where Queen the computer was trying to spread darkness. The two of them had thought it nothing more than a dream, which Kris found somewhat funny, as nobody else would believe they had the exact same dream as someone else. susie glared into the forest, almost wishing there was someone there to take out her anger on. Kris looked up at the sky, making more motions with their hands. They seem to be talking about what they’ll do instead of the project. “put it off even longer? great idea.” Susie grins and slaps Kris on the back “Alphys is the cool teacher, she won’t mind if we just don’t do the project at all! Heh, we got it figured out don’t we. But... we still can’t go back to the dark world.” Susie's grin is lost as quickly as it was found. Kris seems to be debating what to say, they make yet more hand motions. You’re not sure if susie just knows what kris means, or if kris is speaking words you can’t hear, but susie completely understands the possibly unspoken idea. “practice? Sure, we probably could use some while we’re away from the action. Uh, find something… a stick or whatever, that you can use for a sword.” Kris selected a shorter, sturdy stick, while susie managed to find a longer, more ax shaped stick. “Alright, I’ll let you go first, then.” kris’ turn is faster than most. They use the action, check. <susie. HP 28, ATK 5, DEF 3. More than just a bully.> Kris remains a Blake slate when they receive the information from the check. “Hey, did you forget my stats?!” Susie shakes her head in annoyance. “really a waste of a turn.” Susie thinks over her options before settling on an attack. She swings her stout stick, not very hard since this is a real fight and she doesn’t really want to hurt kris. As per usual, Kris waits for the attack to hit, as that is how the rules of this world work, almost. But right as the stick is about to make contact, Kris swings their own branch, knocking the incoming attack away and hitting Susie in the process. Susie coughs before saying “Kris what on earth?” To which the silent sentinel replies with their fingers. You can’t actively understand what they are saying, but you get the basic outline ‘letting enemies hit us is cool and all, but what’s the point when you can just attack back. It’s a risky move, as you can only do it right before getting hit, but it cancels the attack and enemy turn completely, plus doing some damage. I’d like to call it a counter attack, as that fits it best.’ susie grinned “well, you really do have thoughts under that mop of hair. Nice idea.” Her enthusiasm is rare but warranted, this new move could have saved them some serious trouble. “So Kris, who you taking to the festival?” Asks their purple comrade. Kris shakes their head, evidently not knowing who or if they will take anyone. Their head tilts a little as they look at susie as if to say “what about you?” (in the credits ;) )
susie looks away for a minute and mumbles “i, uh, I dunno. Noelle wanted to go, so… now don’t you get any funny ideas Kris Dreemur, just because im taking her does not mean-” susie was interrupted by the voice of Noelle, asking what they were up to. Susie jumped, surprised by the sudden appearance, before trying to remain calm. “oh hey, how’s it going Noelle?” She says quickly. Kris nods, as if asking the same question. “I'm doing great, susie. I was just wondering if you would-” she paused and glanced at kris, then continued “if you two would want to come over to the library again for another study session since the last one was a little tiring” Noelle winked, referencing how everyone fell asleep the last time, or so it seemed. Kris glanced at Susie, then back at Noelle and nodded. Susie also said she would try to stop by for a bit, then asked the deer if she wanted to join them now for some practice. They’d never had a three way battle before, so when Noelle hesitantly agreed the other two were excited. Kris again took the first turn, and decided to check Noelle to see exactly what they were up against. <Noelle. HP 20, ATK 1, DEF 2. Hesitant at the thought of fighting susie.> “reading about me? What’s it say?” Noelle laughed a little before trying to focus. “hmm. It would be nice if I had- oh!” She had been looking around and found a branch only slightly smaller than Kris's. “this will do.” She too decided to check, picking kris. <kris. HP 20, ATK 3, DEF 2. Their blank stare is unnerving.> Susie's turn, she lets her stick fall to the ground with a clatter, making an x with her forearms to protect herself. Kris again, they look between their two friends before deciding to follow Susie's example and defend. They swipe at a rotting tree, breaking a large section of bark off and using it for a shield. Noelle’s turn already. She looks around for something to guard with, before deciding to ACT instead. Noelle sang a lullaby, and Susie fell asleep. “hehe, I was wondering if that worked.” Susie's turn was skipped of course, leaving it to Kris again. As they prepare an attack, Noelle says something that makes them flinch: “this is really familiar… oh yeah, we battled like this in that dream I had! Exactly like this. it almost seems like it wasn’t a dream, but that’s just silly.” (shoot the rest of the part wont fit here...) of course, toby fox and his team deserve all the credit, besides one small part. the idea of them getting new skills in between was really SpriteMikes idea (on youtube) with his fan animation: skill training session. you should check it out, its very well made.
