------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lucky for Undyne, all she got was a good scare...and a very stern talking to by mama Toriel.
Can't say it wasn't expected.
Though, from the looks given to her...Sans and Mettaton leering at her, Papyrus and Alphys still confused to her motives...a talk with the Queen was the safer thing to come of it.
What was a real shocker was what Undyne had to say after it was all said and done.
Undyne told us that she would be stepping down as the Captain of the Royal Guard and in doing so, the Royal Guard would be disbanded, unless a new Captain was appointed.
She nominated Papyrus for the job...He literally fainted...It was shocking as well as adorable.
Seems his dream finally came true and with a epic bonus too.
While we end up waiting for Papyrus to wake up, which didn't take long, Alphys gave me a final checkup and x-ray.
While everything about my health turned out fine, as fine as a human fused with a split apart monster can be, there was a small incident when it came to my x-ray.
Alphys has a full body scanner, which was very handy, it takes a full shot of the body and then loads the image onto a large monitor to examine.
This would normally be okay, unless your in a relationship with skeletons and they walk into the room the moment the your skeleton pops up on the big screen in all its naked glory, causing some very awkwardly heated reactions from them plus the skeleton in my mind.
Yeah...very weird and embarrassing.
Thankfully only Alphys witnessed it, all she did was get all otaku and muttered stuff about fanfictions.
Honestly, she needs a new hobby...I fear the stories she's come up with already.
My god...I'm such a sinner...Now I'm curious to know what they are!
But that makes all the crazy stuff out of the way, thank god, so after a small snack break, some words of encouragement, plus the release of the little annoying pooch, our group takes in Mettaton, Alphys, and Undyne as we depart the Lab for the Capital.
Onward to Asgore we go.
Out of the Lab, up into the area elevator, stroll over to the MTT Resort, enter the CORE, up another elevator, and into the room where I had my epic song duel with Mettaton.
From there we go down a all and up yet another elevator.
I swear, you had a thing for elevators when you made the CORE.
It's a faster means of getting from point A to point B without much effort, it's not my fault if it seems like there is an over abundance of them.
Then might I suggest that the next time you get to make a place, maybe teleporters, now that is a fast way to travel.
That would be a whole new headache, breaking down matter and managing to reassemble it again in another area...Sounds like a challenge.
That's the spirit my hyper intelligent friend.
Exiting the elevator, we stroll along a pathway that over looks the Capital's city.
It's amazing.
It's like the one in the Ruins, only not empty.
"So many people...All forced down here. What's the current population consensus?"
"Last time Asgore had us checked...I think it was rounded out to about 110,000. But that's not counting the people in the Ruins as we could never get in."
"Hmmm...There are not many in the Ruins. But it can be guessed that it would bring the estimated grand total to 120,000, give or take."
"makes it hard to believe that that's all that is left of our race."
"I-i I've been thinking a-about that. It's highly unlikely that ALL monsters were forced here."
"I agree. For that to happen, monsters from all over the planet would have to have culminated into one area for the War and then be dwindled down in order to give in to the human forces. If anything, it is far more likely that either other nations also did this method of banishment or...well...I'd rather not speak of that possibility."
Complete extermination without mercy.
"NYEH...LET'S JUST KEEP GOING. I DON'T LIKE THE SOUND OF ALL THIS."
"No worries Papyrus dear. It's only happy time ahead thanks to our darling angel."
Well...At least Mettaton's trying to be helpful.
I'll give him that much credit at least.
We move on past this, continuing along the path, which goes between buildings and is longer than first thought, but when we reach the end, we find it blocked by 2 guards that look familiar but are not.
One appears to be a cat-like knight while the other appears to be a mantis-like knight, both are donned in the same armor that certain rabbit and dragon knight wear, and both carry the same swords too, heck, they're even both girls in the same way the other two were both boys.
"Halt!"
"No one is permitted to have audience with King Asgore."
"Unless you come baring a human soul."
"Speak now...Do you come harboring such a soul?"
Wow, they take their job rather seriously.
There's a first.
"Stand down you two. That's an order."
They shake their heads at Undyne's command.
"We can not listen to you, Captain."
"You told us not to obey you, in case a human were to put you under its power of mental control."
We just look at her.
"Really?"
"What? The humans in Alphys's animes have mind powers. Is that not a thing?"
Now what RG 01 makes sense when he said I mind controlled him into confessing his feelings for RG 02.
"You and me need to talk later over what humans can and can not do. But first things first..."
I step forward.
"It's time to do what I do best."
I approach the guards and Toriel goes to stop me but Sans grabs her sleeve to halt her.
"Sans..."
"trust her. she's been doing this a long time now...she knows what to do."
She is weary, mostly because of all the crud that's happened so far, but she also knows this to be true.
I come to stand before the guards and they look down on me.
"Howdy. I'm the human. I think we know where this goes from here."
"Nice to meet you? "
Seems the mantis is more friendly.
"Don't say that. It is the enemy."
And the cat is more aggressive.
"Sorry."
"Hmph, try not to mess this up"
A bit harsh and uncalled for.
[Royal Guards attack!]
My soul pops out shining green as swords slash my way, but it's not like I haven't learned to dodge since being here, and not to mention it's easy to pick up on attack patterns which makes it a heck of a lot easier.
But I can't focus solely on the fight, no, I have to pay attention to them themselves and find out what I can do to help them.
Everyone has a problem and just needs a little help to solve it.
Then...I spot it.
RG 03, the mantis, keeps fidgeting with her right glove and a small beaded fabric pokes out...Bingo.
[You tell RG 03 that she should stand up for herself.]
"You know...You don't have to put up with this. Friends don't push each other around."
It gets to her.
"I know, but..."
"I'll take you down alone!"
RG 04, the cat, proceeds to take me on like a tank while her partner just watches rubs her glove.
[You tell RG 04 to remember what being friends is about.]
"How does it feel to put your friend down like that? Is that what you call friendship?"
"What are you talking about?"
"Look at her! Do you think she likes it when you treat her like this? Show her you actually respect her."
I reach for her right glove, if one knight has a hidden bracelet it's likely the other does too, but she bats my hand away.
"Don't touch that!"
This seems to get RG 03's attention but 04 hums and looks the other way like it was nothing.
I'm getting to them.
Time to really push it.
I slip past the cat and go for the mantis, pulling on her right glove before being pushed back.
[You touch RG 03's glove. It starts to come loose.]
"My glove...!"
The glove falls to the ground, revealing not only her claw, but what is clearly a friendship bracelet.
"03... Is that...?"
And now to watch the events unfold.
"Yes. It is. Go ahead. Laugh at me."
I can't help the sneer I get from how strong her words are, but they do sink in for the cat and in a big way.
"No, I..."
RG 04 looks at her own glove and sighs, nodding to herself as she begins to take it off.
"Actually...I still wear mine too."
The glove is tossed, revealing her paw that bares an identical bracelet, this has the mantis in shock.
"Our friendship bracelets from high school."
"03, I'm sorry. I thought you hated me, after what happened...We did some pretty nasty things to each other, because of..."
RG 03 gives in to the moment and hugs RG 04 much to everyone's surprise, especially RG 04.
"That old drama? Forget about it. To tell you the truth, I requested to be partners with you. I wanted to become friends with you again...But I didn't know how to breach the topic."
Emotion gets to RG 04 and she returns the hug wholeheartedly.
"03! After this...Do you want to get some ice-cream?"
"Salmon-flavor?"
"You know it!"
[03 and 04 are planning all sorts of things to do together.]
[YOU WON!]
[You earn 0 XP and 100 gold.]
The knights leave hand in hand, rekindling lost time in their friendship
Good girl, you really seem to have a gift at this.
I just like helping others feel good, that's no big deal.
Oh little one, you really don't see the value of yourself don you.
Do you my ego, because I don't have one of those...not sure if I have a super-ego either.
Dear god, do not tell me you actually believe any of that drivel Sigmund Freud made.
No, though he made a few good points, I know he made up most things like everything he theorized about women.
"Great job darling."
"YES, YOU ONCE MORE PROVEN TO BE AN EXPERT IN SPARING."
"I try. Mother taught me well."
"Ah you flatter me, my child. But let us not doddle. This is the entry way to New Home."
Toriel takes the lead and we all follow her into a place that has me doing a double-take.
It's exactly like the Ruins apart from the color and lack of the old tree, but it's a perfect match.
Even when we go inside I'm being hit with so much deja vu.
Everything is in the same spot, the same furniture, the same home smell blended with a hint of...golden flowers.
They're everywhere.
Seems like Asgore has taken to these flowers quite well.
But then curiosity calls to me.
In the Ruins our house has 3 main rooms...the child's room, Toriel's room, and Asgore's room which she always kept locked.
In her room, which I snuck into once, contains a queen sized bed, bookcase, dresser, desk with her dairy of silly jokes/puns, photos, and one very odd tsundere cactus.
This always had me wonder why a married couple had separate bedrooms, but it's something that seems to have been a thing even here.
New Home has 3 main rooms...First I look what is obviously Asgore's room.
It's similar to Toriel's from the Ruins, only difference is there's a wardrobe instead of a bookcase and there's a #1 trophy in the corner.
[Number 1 Nose-Nuzzle Champs '98!]
"'98? I would've been...eleven years old at the time."
"that young huh?"
I jump at Sans's sudden voice.
"did you know dogamy & dogaressa are the #2 nuzzle champs '98? it drives them nuts."
"I take it you're keeping an eye socket on me in case something goes amiss."
"well, that, and your mom wanted me to let you know it's not nice to snoop in other peoples personal rooms. even if it is your dad's."
I snicker and move to the desk, looking down at the journal left open there, all the current page says is "Nice day today!"and the ink looks still almost wet...He was just here.
"It's less snooping and more trying to understand him. All I know is what others have told me, but that is not a good view of a person, only what those people see him as."
"and what have you learned so far?"
I give pause to this.
"Asgore...He's a man who is many things. A King. A husband. A father. A friend. A mentor. And even Santa Claus. But he is also just a man. A man that holds the weight of his people and is forced to do things for the greater good of the many even if the few disagree with his choices. In a way...He and I are in the same boat. The fate of all monster kind rests on a single choice made between us. He needs my soul to break the barrier and I would need his to leave. The only difference is, I don't want to leave. Yet that doesn't really change his motives."
Sans shrugs.
"even if that's the case, then doesn't it only make it more likely he'll stop to hear you out all the more plausible?"
"How so?"
"well...i know this isn't really something a guy wants to say about his girl, but...you're a lot like your old man."
It takes a moment to get that but when I do I can't help but snicker.
"Really? *giggles* Did you really just say that?"
"it's true though. you'd both do anything for those you care about. even if it isn't good for you."
He makes a valid point.
Yeah...I guess that is true.
"You got me there. I guess this makes me Princess Fluffybuns."
That broke my brain as I was saying it and poor Sans can't keep a straight face for more than a second before laughing so hard he has to brace himself by holding onto the door frame.
"heheheh...oh i am so telling paps this."
"Please don't make this a thing."
"i'm making this a thing...hey pap!"
He takes off down the hall and I don't bother giving chase, I merely leave the room to look at the other rooms.
Toriel's room is locked...go figure.
But the last room, the child's room, that one is open.
It's like my room in the Ruins only there are 2 twin sized beds in here, 2, a family photograph showing 4 happy people that are smiling with joy, and a gift by each bed.
I know I shouldn't, but one child is haunting me while the other child is a flower, I could at least bring Asriel his gift when we meet and maybe Chara would like to know what he got too.
So I check the box by the bed closest to the door.
[There's a heart-shaped locket inside the box.]
Awww...It's beautiful...You can feel the love in this.
I put it in my pocket and move on to the other box across the room.
[There's a worn dagger inside the box.]
...Why is this a gift to a kid?!
Maybe it's for whittling or gardening or even chisel work?
But that's the only stuff that comes to mind as to why a knife is a gift for a kid.
I touch the blade, it's duller than a butter knife, so that ain't so bad, it can't cut but if you put enough force into your attack it would puncture.
Should we take it with us?
I'm not sure.
It might trigger some emotional response from Asgore.
Or it might make me look like some crazy stab happy nut job.
"L-lynsie?"
Napstablook is cautiously gentle in nudging my shoulder and in a panic I hide the dagger behind me as I spin around quickly.
"Hi sweety. Is everything okay?"
"Yeah. I just wanted to find you. We...we don't spend as much time together like before."
He's right and it makes me feel bad.
"I'm sorry Blooky-boo. Come here, let's have some hugs."
He smiles and he hugs me as I tuck the dagger into my back pocket then share in the embrace.
I've missed this.
Just this simple care, it's bigger than it looks.
It's nice.
When we get you back to normal, I'm giving you all the hugs you want Gaster.
I both look forward to that and fear it.
Why?
Sans and Papyrus.
Say no more, I get it.
"Oh there you two are..."
Mettaton peeks in from the doorway with a teasing smile.
"My...Don't you two look absolutely precious."
"H-happs...Don't tease. I-it's not like that."
"No need to be embarrassed Blooky. By all means, embrace in the warmth of the embrace a wonderful girl."
I know I'm going to regret this.
"Do you want a hug too Metta?"
His eyes light up and we're smothered in in tight hold against Mettaton.
"Oooh! I can feel the love!"
"I feel it too."
"*strained* I can't feel my rids..."
Embarrassed, Mettaton lets go and I gulp air down like Sans does ketchup.
"Sorry darling. I forget how strong I am in this body."
"*cough* It's okay. I'm very durable for a fleshy human."
"OH PRINCESS FLUFFYBUNS..."
God dingus damn it all to fudge.
"YOUR MOTHER IS REQUESTING YOU JOIN US FOR THE CONTINUATION OF OUR JOURNEY."
I guess this moment of pause was expected to be short lived, after all, how many have we had so far?
"P-princess Fluffybuns?"
"Oh my god...I love it! It's so cute!"
Argh!
It became a thing!
Leaving the child's room and meeting up with the others, we head down the ever all too familiar basement that is as long as it is in the Ruins.
But when we make it to another over looking the city path, we find it not as empty as the roads we've walked before.
Monsters of all kinds stand along the sides, like a haunting welcome aisle, as if we were being expected to arrive.
Then the really creepy part happens as we walk down the middle of them...They begin to speak.
"A long time ago, a human fell into the RUINS."
"Injured by its fall, the human called out for help."
"ASRIEL, the king's son, heard the human's call."
"He brought the human back to the castle."
"Over time, ASRIEL and the human became like siblings."
"The King and Queen treated the human child as their own."
"The underground was full of hope."
"Then...One day..."
"The human became very ill."
"The sick human had only one request."
"To see the flowers from their village."
"But there was nothing we could do."
"The next day."
"The next day."
"..."
"The human died."
Toriel is starting to become visibly shaken by this retelling of her saddest point in life and it's starting to get to me as well, I don't like how it's upsetting her or the others, but I can't find the ability to speak up.
"ASRIEL, wracked with grief, absorbed the human's SOUL."
"He transformed into a being with incredible power."
"With the human SOUL, ASRIEL crossed through the barrier."
"He carried the human's body into the sunset."
"Back to the village of the humans."
"ASRIEL reached the center of the village."
"There, he found a bed of golden flowers."
"He carried the human onto it."
Oh no...I know where this is going.
"Suddenly, screams rang out."
"The villagers saw ASRIEL holding the human's body."
"They thought that he had killed the child."
"The humans attacked him with everything they had."
"He was struck with blow after blow."
"ASRIEL had the power to destroy them all."
"But..."
"ASRIEL did not fight back."
"Clutching the human..."
"ASRIEL smiled, and walked away."
Toriel is in tears at this point and I'm trying to console her as best I can, but still I lack a voice.
"Wounded, ASRIEL stumbled home."
"He entered the castle and collapsed."
"His dust spread across the garden."
"The kingdom fell into despair."
"The king and queen had lost two children in one night."
"The humans had once again taken everything from us."
"The king decided it was time to end our suffering."
"Every human who falls down here must die."
"With enough souls, we can shatter the barrier forever."
At last I get her tear to stop, even if I had to give up walking to do so, I just let her hold me and act as her support the rest of the way, doing my duty as her daughter to make sure she is okay.
"It's not long now."
"King ASGORE will let us go."
"King ASGORE will give us hope."
"King ASGORE will save us all."
"You should be smiling, too."
"Aren't you excited?"
"Aren't you happy?"
"You're going to be free."
Finally we are no longer among them as we enter what is called the Last Corridor, even though Sans often mentioned this place as the 'Judgment Hall', it was where he would measure the sins of Frisk and if things got too bad...would meet death here.
For a beautiful hall that I've just seen for the first time in my life...I don't like.
"C-can you hear that?"
All is silent, the room is still, then in the stain glass of the Delta Rune windows shadows flutter on by.
"Geez Alphys, it's just birds. Don't be such a wuss."
"it's a beautiful day outside. birds are singing, flowers are blooming...on days like these...miracles can happen."
Something in my core is eerily shaken by those words, as to why though, I don't know.
"Down this corridor lies the entryway to the throne room. There, Asgore will most likely be."
"Are you ready to see him again?"
"I am. It's been long past due."
"Stop!"
A bipedal dog knight that wields a spear like Greater Dog blocks the exit, she is garbed in a suit of armor much like Lesser Dog but is a breed that seems more regal looking yet stoic.
"No one is to pass beyond this point. Leave now."
"Ah crap."
Again, we look to Undyne.
"This is my lieutenant, Dodge."
"*Bark* My name is Doge! Pronounced 'dohj', with a soft j. How many times must I tell you that?!"
Well this is going to go swimmingly.
"*sigh* Be right back everyone. I have to fix this too."
I stroll over to the knight and she puts the spear in my face, clearly she's learned from Undyne.
"Human. You shall not leave this hall alive."
"Might I ask you something before you make me into a human shish kebab."
She cocks an eyebrow but lowers the spear slightly.
"You may."
"How long have you been guarding this spot?"
Her eyes widen and then focus in thought.
"What is today's date?"
I pull out my phone and show her the date...her jaw drops.
"I've been here that long?! I've missed so much...Where's my leash? I haven't been walked in ages!"
Damn...poor girl is whiningand pawing at an imaginary door.
"Easy girl...You want walkies?"
Her ears perk up and her tail slowly starts to wag.
"Want to go on a walk?"
"Yep. Wanna walk Doge?"
All thoughts of her job as a guard fade and all she knows is 'go for a walk'.
"Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy! Oh boy!"
I haven't seen a guard dog this happy in awhile, it's adorable!
"Papy sweety, throw me a bone."
"IS THAT A PUN?"
"i think she's being literal bro."
"OH. HERE YOU GO!"
Papyrus tosses me a bone and I use it to get Doge's attention.
"Here girl. Come here Doge."
[You called Doge over. Doge came close.]
I shake the bone and she follows it's movement, so when I run off she comes after me.
[You go on a short walk with the Doge.]
I proceed to dart about the hall, serpentining around columns to really make the most of this, earning some laughs from my friends because Doge barks when she gets close and I keep getting away.
Eventually though...
[The Doge seems all tuckered out.]
I slow down and let her catch the bone in her teeth, it makes her day.
"Good girl."
[You pet the Doge. What a good Doge.]
Her tail is going a mile a minute and her smile is pure joy.
[Doge looks satisfied.]
It's a perfect opportunity to spare her now.
"A bone that nice. I bet you have a great place to hide it at."
She nods and without further prompting, scampers out of the hall like a happy puppy.
"Well...That was easy."
"MAYBE IT IS A GOOD THING YOUR QUITTING THE ROYAL GUARD."
"Hey, what's that suppose to mean?"
"seems like your training is coming off a bit fishy."
"Argh!"
"*snickering* G-good one Sans."
"thanks. it was like shooting fish in a barrel."
"SANS, PLEASE, STOP WITH THE PUNS!"
"sure bro. water you say."
A mix of groans and chuckles fills the hall, I being one of those that laughs...until something gets my attention with a thwack to my leg.
A seed.
Looking around I spy Flowey from the hall exit, waving me to come over, though I'm not so trusting this time, for good reason of course...every time I follow him I end up attacked.
But damn it all, he's playing on my curiosity, and it's working!
Fight it human!
But what if it's different this time?
Do you know what the definition of insanity is?
Ummm...Insanity is doing the exact same thing over and over again expecting things to change.
That's right...So tell me...What are you going to do?
Follow Flowey?
...I'm not even going to dignify that with a response.
Relax G, I was only joking, I'm not stupid enough to fall for this again.
Oh really...Then do tell me why you're walking over to him?
Wait, I'm what...Oh son of a...Damn it body, you've betrayed me!
Without thinking I started walking, but luckily, this movement of mine did not go unnoticed.
Napstablook follows after me which gets Mettaton's attention, which then gets Papyrus's, Sans, so on and so forth.
Like before when I get close to him, Flowey retreats into the ground and I feel like a moron for falling for this same old bait routine.
What did he even want me to see?
Where did he even lead us?
Where did these stairs come from?
I continue down the steps which seem endless till, thank you lord, they end at a room.
A room with 7 coffins.
Each lid bares a different colored human soul image along with a plaque that says their name and date of death.
In order from the one closest to me to the one all the way at the end, the colors are red, orange, yellow, green, light blue, blue, and purple.
These are the final resting places of the humans that have fallen down here.
But only the red coffin has my full attention.
[There's a name engraved on it..."Chara."]
This is his...God darn it Asriel, why are you showing me this?
Knowing from what my brothers have told me, I lift the lid open slightly, just enough to see.
[The coffin is empty...?]
So Toriel did take the body with her to the Ruins after all.
[You didn't notice before, but there's something like...mummy wrappings at the bottom of it.]
Body wrappings?
I doubt monsters practice mummification, so this could just be what's left of a traditional burial shroud.
"My child..."
Toriel yanks me away and pulls me out of the room, holding me to her tightly.
"You were not meant to see that."
I'm not really sure how to respond to this.
What do you mean?
I don't really...feel anything about this, not fear nor sadness, I just...I don't really care that those other humans are dead.
Is that normal?
I'm detached to humanity, plus I didn't know those other 6, I only care about Chara's but that's due to him being family and having time to get to know him, otherwise...wow, I really am messed up to be this numb, aren't I?
I wouldn't say you're 'messed up', but it's a adaptation you acquired to keep from being hurt when, death is something a child can't cope well with and this was yours, to disconnect, but you are not completely emotionless, you know that as an honest truth.
"My child? Are you alright?"
I look up at her, worry is in her eyes, but I give her a soft smile and kiss her nose.
"I'm alright mother. Everything is going to be okay."
She giggles at my foolishness and leads me back up the stairs, the farther we get from that room of death the better.
We rejoin the others outside an open doorway with a wall plaque that reads "Throne Room".
"HUMAN, WHY DID YOU TAKE OFF AGAIN?"
"let me guess...flowey right?"
I nod.
"you really got to stop trusting him."
"WHAT DID HE DO THIS TIME?"
"Nothing. All he did was lead me to this room that has..."
"Nothing!"
Toriel blurts out much to our surprise.
"That room has nothing in it. It's completely empty."
Those deceased humans...she took care of them too before they met their doom in the rest of the Underground.
No wonder she put up such a fight when I first started to go near the door.
Toriel is a mother above all things as she is naturally caring, knowing and now seeing the fate that has befallen those she tried to protect is not something she would want to happen to you.
It won't, I will not meet my end here.
But she does not know that and neither do you.
Wow...Way to really bring the mood down.
I'm just being realistic, you can only control your fate so much before your luck runs out, for example, look at what happened to me and my family...We did not want our lives to become that which they have been for so long.
But I'm helping to make it better.
That is true and you now very well that we are more than thankful for everything you've done, but the fact remains, no one knows what the future holds for us, no one knows what tomorrow will bring or if we will be here to see it, the reality of now wins out over the promises of tomorrow, so enjoy the moment for what it is and for as long as you can.
...You've been in my head too long, you've been snooping around in my dark thought place.
You have no reason to be afraid of death, it's natural, biological, instinctual, and just plain common sense.
It's not...I do not fear death...I fear the unknown of what might happen once my eyes close for the last time.
Oh...Now that I understand.
"Yo punk! You okay?"
"Yeah...Why?"
"it's fine. she gets lost in thought sometimes. though with all the chatter in her head now, it's a wonder she doing any of this."
"What can I say? I'm good at multitasking. Though it is helpful to have someone in here that's organizing my thoughts and not whispering creepy words."
"Has Chara been talking to you again?"
"No...It's been a while now. I'm kinda worried about how quiet he's being. But hey, it could mean he's sleeping or giving me a break...Right?"
To those that had no clue what we were talking about it all sounded odd, but those to those that did it was a bit concerning, but to avoid further awkwardness a change in subject is in order...but it wasn't by any of us.
"βͺDum dee dum...β«"
That came from inside the room.
"H-he's...Asgore's in there. O-oh my..."
"Relax Alphys, it's going to be fine."
I don't have the heart to mention to Undyne that Alphys had a tiny crush on him or is worried that she might have fail him in her work.
"so...we all ready to do this?"
"About as ready as meeting a parent for the first time can be."
"Be strong my child. We'll be with you every step of the way."
"Thank you."
"You can do this darling."
"WE BELIEVE IN YOU."
"Don't be s-scared."
I take a deep breath to ready myself.
"Oh? Is someone there? Just a moment! I have almost finished watering these flowers."
I nearly chock on the air in my lungs from shock.
He can hear us?
How much did he hear?
Dang it, I'm loosing my skills in sneakiness.
"...Here we are! Curious. I've never seen a plant...Smile before?"
What?!
Get in there now Lynsie!
Without further prompting, I rush into the room to hopefully prevent something bad from happening, but as I came into the room and before the others could follow, the entry way is blocked by thick thorny vines, leaving me alone as I approach a large figure who has his back to me.
The crunching of my steps on the grass and golden flowers alerts the figure to my presence, making him slowly turn around to face me.
"Howdy! How can I...Oh."
Realizing that a human now stands before him changes his happy demeanor into a more sorrowful one and he takes a few steps back just in case I'm dangerous.
Asgore is a man of an intimidating stature with broad shoulders, hair like a golden mane and even has a beard, and two large curved horns.
From what I can barely see do to the royal purple cape with golden pauldrons that covers him, he wears a suit of armor, and a small by comparison to his size crown sits on top of his head.
This monster, this Boss Monster is the King of all Monsters...This is Asgore Dreemurr...my adoptive father.
"So...Nice day today, huh? Birds are singing, flowers are blooming...Perfect weather for a game of catch."
Oh my god...He is like me!
"Yeah...Today's a lovely day. The kind of day that makes one stop to smell the flowers."
I'm trying to be myself, to show I'm not a threat, but as I do I'm also looking around to see where Flowey is, he's up to something and I don't like this uneasy feeling in the pit of my stomach.
Asgore smiles and relaxes a little.
"I so badly want to say, 'would you like a cup of tea?'. But..."
He sighs and strolls over to look out a window.
"You know how it is. You know what we must do."
He really looks torn up about this.
"Actually, about all that. You see..."
"When you are ready, come into the next room."
The poor guy turns away and sulks as he begins to walk out of the room.
I can't let this go on.
"Father wait!"
That freezes him on the spot.
"What...What did you call me?"
"Father."
He turns back and looks at me confused.
"Uh...I'm sorry. But I do believe you have me confuse for someone else. I am not your father dear child."
Wow this is awkward as hell.
"But you see, the thing is, you kind of are."
His confusion grows and I start rubbing my arm nervously.
"My...How tense...If this is a stall tactic, it's okay. If you are not ready, I understand. I am not ready either."
"No, it's not that. Though honestly, I have no intention on fighting you. I came here today because I wanted to talk."
"...About?"
"You see...I've been living here in the Underground for quite some time now. I've learned things. Made many friends. Gained a family. Heh...I even found love here. And I've come to know in my heart that, I don't really want to leave this place."
He's stunned."
"Human...You would rather stay down here and suffer...Than live happily on the surface?"
"The surface isn't really a happy place. But yes. I want to remain here, among my loved ones. To make them happy. Because...As silly as it sounds...Their happiness is what makes me happy. Nothing warms my heart more than making them smile. So why would I want to leave and make them feel abandoned. I can't even dream of doing such a shameful thing. So, if it's okay, may I ask you for permission to live here? Please?"
The honesty on my words touches at his heart and he begins to cry.
"I...I can't do this..."
He drops to his knees and weeps into his hands.
"I can't do this anymore...I can't bring myself to take your soul...I remember the day after my son died. The entire underground was devoid of hope. The future had once again been taken from us by the humans. In a fit of anger, I declared war. I said that I would destroy any human that came here. I would use their souls to become godlike...and free us from this terrible prison. Then, I would destroy humanity...And let monsters rule the surface, in peace."
I slowly come close to him and kneel.
"That's perfectly understandable. You have nothing to be ashamed for. You did what you felt was best for the people."
"*strong sniffle* Soon, the people's hopes returned. But...My wife, however, became disgusted with my actions. She left this place, never to be seen again."
"You made a mistake. Everyone does. What's important is to learn from it and try to make amends. Only then will the hurt be healed."
"You are such a wise girl for one so young. Truthfully...I do not want power. I do not want to hurt anyone. I just wanted everyone to have hope...*sniffles* I cannot take this any longer. I just want to see my wife. I just want to see my child. Please...Young one...This war has gone on long enough. As a human...You have the power...Take my soul, and leave this cursed place."
My King...You are truly to kind for this world.
I can't take this anymore, I hate seeing him so miserable, it's even making me cry.
I practically hop onto him and hug him as strongly as I can, which has him completely baffled.
"Please Papa...No more tears. It hurts to see so much pain. I won't leave you. I refuse to leave where I'm needed so badly. I am not going to take your soul. I am not going to leave you or the Underground. But I will do all that I can to see that the people are happy. That you are happy. It's my duty as a daughter to make my parents smile as much as I can. So please..."
I'm silenced by his arms coming around me to share in the embrace.
"Human...I promise you...For as long as you remain here...My wife and I will take care of you as best we can. We can sit in the living room, telling stories...Eating butterscotch pie...We could be like...Like a family..."
"But we already are Papa."
"Why do you call me father young one?"
"Because Mama adopted me."
His eyes widen.
"Mother? Do you mean..."
Suddenly a blast goes off, destroying the vine blockade that separated us from the rest of my loved ones.
"Don't you dare harm that child!"
Toriel comes charging in like a bat out of hell and Asgore actually grips me tighter in startled surprise.
"Do not be afraid, my child. I won't let that pathetic whelp hurt you."
Way to kick a guy when he's down mom.
Asgore let's me go and stands up.
"Tori...You came back...!"
She's less happy to see him than either of us would hope.
"Do not 'Tori' me, Dreemurr! If you really wanted to free our kind...You could have gone through the barrier after you got ONE SOUL taken six SOULs from the humans, then come back and freed everyone peacefully. But instead, you made everyone live in despair...Because you would rather wait here, meekly hoping another human never comes."
"Mama, you don't have to be so harsh. We came here to reconcile, remember?"
"...Tori...You're right...I am a miserable creature...but, do you think we can at least be friends again?"
She looks at him, then me, both of us have hopeful begging faces, and she sighs.
"I suppose it wouldn't hurt to give you a chance. But screw up again and that's it!"
Life returns to Asgore and I feel a love long thought lost fill the room as the others join us.
"Mama, should we maybe..."
"Oh, right. Silly me, I almost forgot. *clears throat* Asgore..."
She puts a hand on my head sweetly.
"This is our daughter. Her name is Lynsie.."
"Howdy Papa. It's nice to finally meet you."
He smiles while wiping away the last of his tears.
"Howdy young one. It's wonderful to meet you as well."
We shake hands, his massive paw dwarfs my fist, but it is far more gentle than one would expect and is the kind that speaks of his noble character.
Truly this moment, the King of Monsters and a Human, coming together as family, is the start of a very good time.
A new beginning.

I actually bust out laughing right after reading that before I read Sans's reaction to it with just made me laugh all the harder till I actually started crying from laughing so hard. So thank you so much for giving me the laugh of a lifetime, I bet those boys are going to get a lot of mileage out of that one,because I know I sure would! XD LOL Β Β
