'This timeline...it's good' Frisk thought nodding to herself. Though the barrier had been opened most of the monsters had decided to stay here in the underground, the only reason being the humans didn't quite accept them back yet but that was ok everyone was happy with just being able to go to the surface every once in a while.
Frisk looked around at his friends, Undyne and Papyrus were training together...and by training I mean more like throughing spears and bones at each other just for the fun of it. Toriel and Sans were sharing puns with each other and cracking up every so often while Alphys was watching anime on a tablet Frisk had bought her once they got to the surface the first time.
"Hey Frisk" someone said from behind the little heroine. Two arms wrapped around Frisk's waist and lifted her up off the bench she had been sitting on, swinging her around a bit.
"Hi Hailey" She replied turning herself around to see her new friend. Hailey had wandered into the underground one the barrier had broken and quickly became one of our new friends. She decided to live in the underground with us at Asgore's in Chara and Asriel's old room. Hailey had long brown hair with bright pink ombre tips that was usually up in a high pony tail held back by a pink ribbon. Brown eyes and fair skin as well as was always wearing a light pink sleeveless top with a white mini long sleeved sweater on top that was tied at the bust, pink mini skirt and white ankle boots. She was about 10 inches taller then Sans but was 13 years old so very short for her age.
The two sat down on the bench together, Frisk in Hailey's lap, and watched everyone do their own thing.
"So Frisk, what would you like to do today?" Hailey asked resting her chin on top of Frisk's head
"I don't know" Frisk replied "didn't you say one of your friends was moving in today?" Hailey giggled in response to the question getting a confused look from Frisk.
"She's my cousin Frisk" Hailey replied "she should be here soon enough, just grabbing her stuff from her old place. She'll be living with Papyrus and Sans from now on"
"Oh" Frisk replied then went silent. Something was nagging at the back of her mind, she had to tell someone but if she did they would worry too much. Frisk was afraid that if she told someone about this, everything would fall apart the happy world they were in right now would need to be reset once again.
"Is there something on your mind?" Hailey asked. Frisk nearly jumped in surprise, was it possible that Hailey can read minds? 'No' Frisk brushed out that thought, 'theres no way if she could she would've already known what was wrong'
"...no" she replied quietly Frisk would keep it a secret for a little longer, or at least until she knew how to resolve the situation without any battling
"Come on Frisk" Hailey said "you can tell me anything, what's that thing that Sans always says?"
"Puns?" Frisk asked getting a laugh out of Hailey
"No no I mean" Hailey took a deep breath "your not alone in this anymore kid" Frisk started laughing as Hailey finished her Sans impression, it was almost perfect only she really can't do his voice
"so out with it, whats bugging you" Hailey asked. Frisk sighed, she knew there was no way Hailey would ever let this go until she found out what was going on with her. 'Hailey has plenty of determination too, and if shes anything like me' Frisk thought 'well I won't hear the end of it'
"Ok but you have to promise me you won't tell anyone" Frisk said in a serious tone Hailey nodded in response realizing the seriousness of the situation
"I won't tell a single soul, monster or human" Hailey replied. Trusting in her friend Frisk exhaled ready to explain
"I-I think Chara is back" She said "I've been sensing her for a while and I don't know what to do, I don't want anyone worrying to much because I could be wrong but I really think she's back" Frisk waited for Hailey's response. When it didn't come Frisk looked over at her friend who was looking down at her. Frisk couldn't read Hailey's expression but it was obvious she was going to talk to Sans or Toriel about this, regardless of the promise they just made.
"Don't worry about that Frisk" Hailey finally said
"Huh?" Frisk asked shocked. 'Is she really not going to tell anyone?'
"Look at it this was "Hailey thought for a second before responding "you and Chara are alike, and if she is back then I'm sure you can somehow convince her to become friends with everyone instead of killing everyone...and if you ever need help come talk to me the two of us will work together to help Chara ok?"
"...ok" Frisk replied. This wasn't the reaction she was expecting, it was better. This way the others won't know about Chara and she was able to tell someone without worrying them...unless. Frisk looked back up at Hailey who was smiling at her. 'Yes, everything is going to be fine' Frisk thought
"Hey look its a text from Maddie" Hailey said now looking at her phone. Frisk pulled down Hailey's arm so she could see the tiny phone's screen, the text read
On my way, think you can meet me at the old barrier?
"You should go then" Frisk said "we shouldn't keep her waiting"
"Well then come on" Hailey said and suddenly stood up lifting Frisk into her arms "we have my cousin to welcome don't we?" Frisk smiled and the two nodded at each other. They had planned a party with everyone that would be going on tonight.
Papyrus had made a cake but Hailey secretly made a replica of it that would actually taste good and Papyrus wouldn't even know the difference. Frisk, Sans and Hailey had decorated Sans and Papyrus' place...twice since Undyne kind of destroyed everything when she got mad at Papyrus for baking the cake nicely instead of ruff like she had taught him. Eventually everything was set up after a number of trys, and todays the day the party would commence!
"Hey guys!" Hailey called "Maddie's gonna be here soon"
"YES FINALLY THE GREAT PAPYRUS CAN DISTRIBUTE PEICES OF MY WONDERFUL CAKE" papyrus said. Everyone looked at each other then started to laugh, they all knew the cakes were switched, it was only papyrus who didn't "WHAT? WHAT IS THIS JOKE THE GREAT PAPYRUS DOES NOT KNOW OF?"
"nothing bro" Sans said "don't worry about it"
"OK THEN IF YOU SAY SO" papyrus replied
"Hey lets get this party started already!" Undyne called summoning one of her famous blue spears
"Uhhhh u-undyne I-I I suggest that you p-put that away...we d-don't want the d-decorations to get ruined" Alphys said "...w-well ruined a-again heh heh"
"Oh alright" undyne said putting it away "but its coming back later I can guarantee that"
"Alright Papyrus come with me to pick up Maddie" Hailey said "everyone else go and hide, we'll come back in a few minutes.
"LETS GO!" Papyrus said "I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE PARTY TO START" once they left everyone ran into sans and papyrus' house to hide...well everyone except sans who walked in, lied down on the couch and put a blanket over his body. Frisk could hear quiet snoring coming from under the blanket and giggled, Sans had fallen asleep once again. Pink, lavender, and white coloured balloons littered the floor and walls as well as matching coloured streamers hung on the celling. A huge hand painted sign made by toriel hung over the door way that read: welcome to snowdin your new home in the underground
Undyne and alphys ran and hide under the large table while toriel ducked down beside the couch Sans was now sleeping on, and Frisk jumped into the kitchen. She could still smell traces of spaghetti though the smell of fresh baked cake was fighting to take dominance. She knew the cake had been left the the refrigerator in order to stay chilled and hoped that Papyrus or Hailey had remembered to take out the remaining left over spaghetti containers that were still inside. Everything and everyone was silent as they waited for the three to come back.
"Where is everyone?" Someone asked a familiar voice from outside, it was Maddie
"I THE GREAT PAPYRUS HAVE NO IDEA WHERE THE OTHERS HAVE GONE" papyrus pretty much shouted
"Papyrus" Frisk heard Hailey say and imagined her shaking her head. "Her Mad, why don't you just put your things in the stele-bro's house and then we can go looking for everyone"
"Heh, skele-bros" Frisk heard Sans chuckle...'huh so he wasn't asleep after all'
"YES MADDIE, YOU MUST DO THAT" papyrus said. Frisked peeked out of the kitchen and into the main room, the door was beginning to open. 'Knowing that we will soon have a new friend living here in Snowdin' She thought then giggled in her mind 'fills me with determination'
"SURPRISE" everyone shouted jumping out from hiding as the three walked through the door
"Wha?!" Maddie cried "guys!" She was exactly how Frisk remembered her. Dark brown hair the stops just inches below her shoulders and a lavender hairband holding it away from her face. She was wearing Light blue leggings and lavender running shoes, under a pink shirt just like always.
"Welcome to Snowdin punk" Undyne said punching her in the shoulder. Maddie rubbed her shoulder and smiled
"Thanks" she said. Frisk ran up to Maddie and hugged her, who hugged back in response. Once Frisk let go Sans approached maddie
"Hey kid nice to see you again" he held out his hand
"Nice try Sans, I can clearly see that mini whoopee cushion" Maddie replied
"Eh worth the shot" he replied shrugging
"NOW THAT THAT'S OVER WITH WE MUST EAT CAKE" papyrus said
"So early?" Toriel asked "she just got here"
"I've got no arguments" Hailey said shrugging
"GREAT, THEN I WILL GO GET IT BE READY HUMAN, FOR I THE GREAT PAPYRUS, HAVE MADE YOU THE BAST CAKE EVER!" papyrus ran into the kitchen making everyone laugh
"Just so you know" Hailey whispered to maddie "I actually made the cake, it was a replica of his but it tastes better, everyone's keeping it a secret"
"Got it" she whispered back. The two smiled at each other as papyrus ran back in carrying a vanilla double decker cake with pink and lavender frosting and the words welcome spelled out it white frosting. Papyrus set it down on the table that had already laid out spoons, forks, a knife and plates for everyone.
"ALRIGHT I WILL NOW CUT THE CAKE" Papyrus announced. And picked up the knife. He cut a piece for everyone and handed them out before taking one for himself.
"Dig in everyone" undyne said. Everyone picked up either a fork or spoon and took a bite
"Wow" Frisk said. The cake Hailey made was really good, delicious actually and everyone seemed to agree silently eating their pieces of cake.
"Papyrus this is great" maddie said
"OF COURSE, HOW COULD YOU EXPECT ANY LESS FROM THE GREAT PAPYRUS?" Papyrus asked and everyone laughed continuing to finish off their pieces of cake
"Whats going on in here? Your having a party without me?" Someone asked. Everyone jumped and turned to the door way. Shoulder length brown hair with bangs similar to Frisk's, a green and yellow striped sweater and jean shorts. She eyes glowed bright red as she smiled knife held tightly in her right hand and golden heart locket swinging on her chest...Chara was back.
