How to Feel Again
Prologue
When the Monsters arose from their underground prison, the Humans on the surface didn't know what to think. Most had heard the stories of the War of Humans and Monsters, and they were even more terrified when they heard that the Monsters were planning on staying.
But then Frisk came along; despite only being a child at the time, she surprised the Human race with her knowledge of Monsters and her bond with them. It was that friendship that helped the Humans look passed the unique exterior of Monsters kind, and eventually warmed up to them to create a new era of peace. Another outcome was the Delta Core, an organization created by Toriel and Frisk to oversee all events and feats concerning Humans and Monsters.
Though, that didn't mean everything was completely sunshine and rainbows. Frisk and the rest of her friends knew that Mount Ebott wouldn't just disappear, and neither would some of the rebel Monsters that still despised Humans; they spread fear across the nation, and even murdered a few humans to prove their point.
But the Delta Core knew they had to be mindful as to how to deal with the rebels, leaving them with the petty choices of capturing and interrogating. The only problem was, none of them would ever talk.
"We can't keep doing this. We need to do something," Asgore began firmly, as he and the rest of the head of Delta Core sat down to discuss matters in the office of their grand estate.
"I say we go out there and kill the suckers already! Nyah!" Undyne exclaimed violently, conjuring a spear and stabbing the table.
"B-But that w-w-would send th-the tranquility downhill. W-We can't r-r-risk it," Alphys timidly pointed out.
"I SUGGEST A PEACE OFFERING. THEREFORE, I OFFER UP MY SPAGHETTI!" Papyrus didn't hesitate to say.
"not ta critique, bro, but that ain't gonna be enough," Sans added lazily, slouching in his seat with his eyes lidded, seemingly being the least interested.
"Which is why we should take action!"
"We didn't get where we are now with the Humans via 'action', Undyne," Toriel calmly protested with air quotes.
"P-P-Perhaps we sh-should…spy o-on them?"
"OOH, YES, LET'S BE SPIES. I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, VOLUNTEER AS TEAM CAPTAIN."
"sounds fun. let's do it."
"We're not here to have fun. We're here to ensure the safety of everyone's future—but being more patient may be our only chance."
"Being patient was what kept us trapped in the Underground, Asgore. We all suffered because of it, and we won't make the same mistake again." Asgore noticeably shrunk and went quiet under the anger of his ex-wife's tone.
"She's right, Your Majesty," Undyne began with a sneer, "We all kept hoping for another Human to fall down and give up their Soul, but that didn't happen. Need I remind you of how The Barrier was really broken?"
"It was Flowey," a tiny voice entered the room before anyone could answer, and they immediately knew it was their precious ambassador, "He broke The Barrier when he could've killed us all and taken our Souls for himself."
"What are you doing up, Frisk? You should be in bed," Toriel gently stated, crouching down to get eye level with Frisk.
"But I don't have school tomorrow. I can stay up a bit, and I wanna help," Frisk informed.
"that's nice, kid, but this is grown up stuff. sorry," Sans pointed out and shrugged.
"So? You wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for me. I fought for your freedom, so the least you can do is let me get a say in protecting you!"
"Damn, you're real persuasive for a fourteen-year-old," Undyne admitted with a chuckle, "Alright, Frisk, what'cha got in mind?"
Frisk instantly smiled and put on a determined face, "Well…what's the one place we haven't checked for rebellious activity?" The monsters remained silent, as their eyes darted around in wonder.
Eventually, Frisk finally gave them the answer, "Mount Ebott. They're probably holed up in there."
"I-If I w-w-wanted to hide…I-I would pick the l-l-last place m-my enemies least e-expect, too," Alphys admitted.
"It seems legit. What do you think?" Asgore asked Toriel, his brow quirked in curiosity.
"I agree. Perhaps returning to Mount Ebott will give us some answers," Toriel confirmed with a nod.
Based on the title, can you tell how this story is going to go yet? If not, trust me, it's a doozie:)
Until the next chapter, I'm TRikiD, bye-bye!
