It's November right now and it's been five years since monsters came up from mount Ebbot. At first, people were kind of suspicious of them and didn't trust them a reason for that may be because monsters were fricking huge. You yourself were only surprised but didn't think too much of it because you were only 16 back then and monsters were slightly far away because mount Ebbot is in Mexico.
You don't know how much there is a different right now because here in Canada aren't that many monsters, well none that you've met yet that is. Back then when monsters came up you still lived with your parents and you remember being very confused about monsters coming up you were confused about all these stories being true.
You always thought that these stories were just made up by adults for their kids to be good and nice and stuff. However, all the adults themselves were surprised and some were even scared. but there was this little boy - Frisk was his name if you recall it right, he freed all of the monsters and became the ambassador of all monster-kind.
Well as already said there aren't that many monsters here in Canada but there is this restaurant run by a fire elemental his name is Grillby (hehe kinda funny). You never were there but you always planned going there with some friends - if you had some that is... You suppose, you are just too shy to talk to anyone and that's why you only have one friend, the reason why you can't go to Grillby's with them is because they don't live here in Canada anymore they moved away for the Stanford university in California.
Yeah, they are pretty smart and they've got a lot bunch of money they got from their parents. You haven't got that much money, and that would probably be the reason why you won't be able, to reach for your dream to become an astronomist. You've always been interested in stars and other planets, and that's why you are so excited for monsters being on the surface. They are a whole other species after all!
Today is supposed to be a very special day because today you have a job interview at a lab run by monsters. You need a job to gain money for college and to become an astronomist. Well, it's not actually a job interview but rather a meeting where a monster called Dr. Alphys is going to run some tests on your soul.
Anyways, you hope it's going well since you are afraid of talking to strangers and such. You read on a flyer, that they are seeking for humans, to run tests on their souls and because souls are a very touchy subject it's a very well paid job (2000$ says the flyer).
You don't know what exactly is going to happen there but hopefully, it's not too unbearable and you won't fell too embarrassed about your soul being outside... at least you guess that you will have to take it out. You too are kind of curious what the color of your soul would be because in the flyer it says that, every human soul has got a specific color depending on the human's true self.
An example for this was that a red soul would stand for determination. However, it didn't say what a soul exactly looks like and that's also something you are curious about. You heard a soul is supposed to look like a comic-like heart but, that just sounds silly doesn't it? From the map, which is printed on the flyer, you suppose that you're almost there and it shouldn't be that long, maybe a few hundred meters left.
When you arrived you were greeted by a huge white building with ''Lab'' written in red over the door. You hesitated for a short time and then decided to go inside.
