POV Undyne

I was so nervous, standing in front of a cooker for already twenty minutes. How could he did this?! We've agreed on preparing for the Christmas today! At that moment two feelings were fighting inside me: anger, and something, that I didn't expect of myself — fear. Yeah, I was scared because of worry, but I still didn't want to admit it. Maybe, he has just has forgotten? No, it's silly. Papyrus always comes to our lessons in an hour before them, but he has never forgotten. Especially today. I tried to call him yet one time. I took my phone and dialed him, hoping for an answer. But there was only silence. What the hell, happened with him?

I had very bad predictions. It was a snowstorm outside, so going out and looking for Papyrus was useless. I couldn't do anything, except calling Sans. To be honest, we hadn't got any friendly relationships, so, to put it mildly, I didn't want to do this very much. But it was necessary.

"Hello?"

"Oh, what an honor! So, what do YOU need from ME? By the way, how are you doing with Paps? Making FISH DISHES?"

"O, God, I hate you and your stupid jokes!"

"Hm, I can hear, that our «Ms. Head of the Royal Guard» doesn't feel herself like FISH IN A WATER."

"Shut up, or I'll BREAK ALL YOU BONES! God, this shit is infective! Better say, where is your brother!"

"Wait, isn't he with you…?" his voice immediately became more serious.

"Do you think, I would call you if he is with me?!"

"Actually, he went out two hours ago…"

While we were talking, the snowstorm became less powerful. Suddenly, I've got an idea. It was a bit of dangerous, but also it was the only solution.

"OK, I'll deal with it," I sharply said and hung up.

I put on almost everything I had and went out of my house. I didn't want someone to see me, 'cause in theory, I had to be with Papyrus at that moment. Actually, because of our cooking lessons I had time off from guard's training once a week. Thank God, Asgore understood my relation to Papyrus. But if someone will see me now, not only I'll have not quite good time, but… And I just don't want to mess Asgore with my own problems.

But when I finally went out, I immediately calmed down. For first, except a snowstorm, which already was more less powerful, there was an impenetrable fog, so I couldn't see further than two-three meters in front of myself. And secondly… WHAT AN IDIOT WILL GO OUT DURING THIS WEATHER?! Right, me, to find the same idiot.


I didn't know how much time I was walking in the town. The only good thing was, that I at least could distinguish the road and wasn't walking in circles. Firstly I was trying to turn my head in all directions, scream. But in some time I became tired and in the end almost lost my voice.

Don't know why, but this cold and quiet atmosphere easily calmed me down. There wasn't any wind, the fog didn't even going to dissipate, and I could just slowly walk around Snowdin. So, having crossed arms over my chest and constantly looking down, didn't expecting this from myself, I mused about monster's life…

Since that time, when the human appeared in the Underground, I really became afraid of our lives. She's here only for a couple of days and no one has been hurt yet, but I still don't trust humans. Although Sans says, that this child is good, I don't believe him. Humans, by definition, can't be good. First of all, because they killed almost everyone of us. And though it happened quite a long time ago, I perfectly remember all these events…

"Darling, I need to go out for some time."

"No, please, don't leave me…"

"Honey, it won't take much time. I promise, I'll come back soon," he said, smiling and realizing, that it would never happen."I love you," he kissed me on my forehead.

"I love you too, Daddy."

But when in a few years I fond out about his death in a battle with humans, I swore to erase all the humanity one day…

And this was the only one scene from my early childhood I clearly remembered. Then there were only persecution, fear, homelessness… and then Waterfall and Gerson… And I still happy, that I don't remember all those horrors, as my conscious ages started only from that big news agout Queen's leaving.

Suddenly my minds were interrupted by the piece of cloth, flew to my face, and followed him, a strong gust of cold wind. I startled because of suddenness, but then became serious again. I nervously removed the cloth from my face and already wanted to though it away, but something stopped me. I looked at it carefully. This red scarf… Oh my God!

"Papyrus!" despite the hoarse voice, I yelled as loud as I only could. But there was no answer. "Papyrus, do you hear me?!"

Abruptly I heard almost a whisper:

"U-u-udyne…"

I ran a bit ahead and looked down. And then immediately froze. I couldn't describe this with any words. It. Was. A head. No, more correctly — ONLY A HEAD!

"God…"

In a few seconds I went out of shock and ran to Papyrus. I sat down and took his head. The eyes were half covered, and the breath was hardly to catch.

"Undy-… I'm sor-…"


"Don't worry, everything will be alright," I was calming down myself and Papyrus at the same time, and trying to unlock the door by one hand.

As I came inside, I put Papyrus' head on the table and promptly checked his breath. It was intermittent but stable. I touched his forehead, but quickly withdrewed my hand. It was icy. So, as I took off the outerwear, I shooked Papyrus with a couple of hats and scarfs. Having given him an appraising look, I went to the other side of the room and took my phone from the pocket. At that moment I didn't care about our relationship, I had to tell everything to Sans.

"Yeah?"

"O, God, two times in one da-"

"Shut up, it's not time for your puns!" I nervously interrupted him, but in a few seconds already calmed down a bit. "I have a serious conversation."

"Okay, I'm listening to you, don't shout," for my surprise, his voice became more calm, than usual.

"I have a question. Skeletons… can they… live without… ehem… body?"

Only now I realized, how much is my voice trembling. But I even wasn't trying to hide my worry.

"In theory, yes… Wait, did something happened to Papyrus?"

"Why do you think so?"

"There are only two skeletons in the Underground — Paps and me. So, what's wrong with him?"

"Well… As you say, that you can live without body, than, I think, nothing serious…"

"Wait, what?! Without body?! What the fuck, happened?!"

Suddenly he was interrupted by, coming from back, Papyrus' voice.

"Undyne? What's wrong? Why am I…" he couldn't finish, because I gripped his head in tight hugs.

"Papyrus, thank God, you're…" for a second tears appeared in my eyes, but I restrained myself and said in a whisper: "I was worried. Never scare me like that."

"Undyne! Hey! Are you here?!" I heard from the phone. I completely forgot about it.

"I can't explain this. Better…"

"Wait a second."

At the next moment he was already standing in front of me.

"How did you…?"

"Never mind. So, what happened to Paps?"

"Well, something like… that."

I walked away, letting Sans to see his brother's head.


After an hour of screams, damaged nerves and fights, (which were mostly looked like:

S.: "He was going to yours, and if this happened with him, it's your fault!"

Me: "Actually, you're his older brother and you have to look after him!"

P.: "You know, I'm already adult. Hey, is anybody here interested in my opinion?!"

Me and Sans: "No!"), we calmed down a bit and sat down at the couch on both sides of Papyrus. There was stunned silence. No one of us has no strength to say anything. In a few minutes Sans decided to break the hush.

"So, bro, how did it happen?"

"Em… I was going to Undyne, then the tight fog appeared. In a halfway I met a human and offered to become friends. She didn't say anything, just approached to me. I suggested «hugs of accepting». We went closer to each other, and then I felt a severe pain, everything began to float in front of my eyes…"

"I said, that humans can't be good," I said to myself, but having seen Sans' and Papyrus' gazes, I understood, that they heard me.

"Strange, why didn't she kill you?"

"I don't know…"

"Did the human try to kill anyone else?" Sans looked at me questioningly. Fortunately, I knew the answer.

"No, Alphys watches all her acti-" the phone call interrupted me. "There she is," I smiled and picked up the phone.

But instead of ordinary «H-hi», I've heard the sounds of falling things and metal, and then Alphys' voice, trying to drown out all the noise.

"U-undyne! H-human… M-mettaton… H-help us!"

"Al? What happened?! Alphys! Hey!" because of worry my forehead became sweat.

Suddenly, I heard the calmer female, but rather child, voice:

"Yeah, Undyne, you can come and help your friend. Heh, it'll be even funnier with you!"

"Scum, if something happens to Alphys, I swear, I'll kill you!"

But the answer was only more screams and long beeps in a second. I quickly stood up and walked to the exit door, but Sans stopped me.

"Hey, where are you going?!"

"To Alphys. It does not concern you. Better, take care of Papyrus," I said, before going out.
