Chapter 2 – The True Lab

The True Lab was a dark and gloomy place with only enough light to barely see. Luckily though, Frisk was prepared this time. Digging through the pack they had brought Frisk pulled out a heavy flashlight. Pressing the button on the side a powerful light cut through the darkness illuminating the halls.

"Good thinking kid, sure was bright of you." The short skeleton snickered. Frisk smiled slightly feeling a bit more at easy by the joke.

The pair started down the hallway carefully keeping the light on the floor ahead, although none of the Amalgamates would be here they could not know what else might be lurking in the darkness. A ways into the lab the two started passing by doors within the lab. Most of the doors were old and had little inside, ranging from storage rooms to empty labs.

One door though they finally found was a locked door. The old dusty plack on it read W.D.G. And a plack below it was much too dirty and old to read properly.

"Huh...woooooonder what that stands for?" Sans said after staring for almost a minute.

Some part of Frisk pushed him to investigate behind the door, if only they had some way of maybe prying the door open. Slowly moving the light around the hallway to find something around to help a loud "BEEEEEEEP" pierced the silence.

"Well kid, looks like we've been found out." Sans quipped as a tall guard robot appeared in the hallway.

"Intruder detected, intruder detected!" it screamed racing down the hallway.

"Don't suppose it's related to Mettaton..." Sans added while Frisk quickly took stock of the situation.

"Sans, don't move yet. I have an idea!" Frisk finally called out to the short skeleton.

"Uh...wanna run that by me again?" Sans' grin seemed to fade slightly. "It's...getting closer...Frisk?" The robot was on wheels and zoomed just within range of them.

"Now!" Frisk called as they both jumped out of the robots way, letting it crash into the doorway and bust the door right off it's hinges.

"Well that's thinking on your feet kiddo. Too bad that thing can't say the same." Sans laughed looking into the room as the robot pushed itself up. Frisk though turned off the flashlight a moment and stood just beyond sight of the robot around the wall of the door frame.

"Sans, can you distract it for a minute so I can search the room once over?" Frisk asked trying to make sure only Sans could hear.

Sans' smile widened, his pupils disappeared and his left eye suddenly gave a distinct blue glow. "I dunno, I guess so. No promises though." he chuckled summoning a bone and throwing it at the thing. The bone bounced off the robots head with an audible "CLANG!" as it looked at Sans, "Intruder! Intruder!' it raised a mace like hand and swung at Sans as they both started moving away from the room, the robot swinging, and Sans easily dodging it.

A short distance of swing and dodge they would be completely down the hallway, where Sans would duck into a room. "Hmm, good thing I know a shortcut." he smiled wide. When the robot entered the room it would start searching high and low, but there would be no short skeleton intruder to be found anywhere.

Back in the now open room Frisk would be searching the whole place top to bottom quickly for anything that looked like it would be of use to bring back to Alphys. Of the whole office he was able to find a locked briefcase under a desk, and in a drawer a folder labeled "D-research." both of which seemed important enough to take.

"Time to go kid, I lost the bucket of bolts, but he seemed like he really wanted to play more." Sans walked into the room from nowhere. Frisk ran up to him and held up the folder and briefcase. "Looks like you found some good stuff there, c'mon let's go. I know a shortcut out of here." he smirked. Frisk nodded, tucking the items under one arm and reaching up with the other hand taking Sans'. As soon as he did the pair would suddenly disappear, reappearing moments later in a small but cozy house in the middle of a snowy town.

"Too Close..." Frisk sighed in relief after their narrow escape. "Geez you two are stupid! That was reckless and dangerous!" reprimanded a voice in Frisks head.

Frisk smiled, "Aww, I didn't think you cared Chara." he replied.

At this he could feel Chara blushing, "I don't! If you die, I die too remember?" Chara shouted back in his head. Frisk laughed, Chara became quiet again. After all this time, Frisk had learned how to deal with her, or maybe it was just that she had become more passive.

"What's so funny?" Sans asked staring at Frisk with a wide smile.

"Chara" Frisk responded getting a comical reaction from Sans.

"Oh..." was all the skeleton's response was. After a moment he would clear his throat, or at least make the sound of it as he didn't quite have one. Pointing towards the kitchen he added, "There should be leftover spaghetti in the fridge if your hungry.

Frisk cringed slightly "Wouldn't that all be spoiled by now?"

Sans grin widened "Nah, monster food is mostly magic, so it digests faster, gives more energy, is low in fat, and spoils very slow." he explained as if it were nothing new. "The only real danger is eating something left from when Paps first was learning to cook."

Frisk thought it over a brief moment before shaking his head, "It's fine, I packed some food for our trip so I'll eat that."

Sans shrugged "All right, well then I'm going to search around Snowdin some, you rest up here and tomorrow we will continue on to the ruins." with that he would exit the house, disappearing.

Frisk was now alone, or as alone as he could be anyways with Chara inside of him. Going through the pack he would pull out a sandwich when Chara's voice sounded in his head, "So uh...did you remember to pack-"

"Yes, I brought along some chocolate..." Frisk interrupted before taking a big bite out of the sandwich. Even if Chara was a genocidal demon, Frisk was still Frisk, so he would be considerate of her as well.

Finishing his sandwich he would go back into the pack and pull out a bar of chocolate much to Chara's joy. Taking a big bite of it she would be able to taste it as well, "Mmmh~ If you somehow do bring me back this is the first thing I want to experience with my own body."

Frisk sat back on the couch relaxing some, "So then there ARE things that you'd like if you came back." he teased.

She snickered, "Yeah, that and not having to deal with boy parts." her ghost appeared next to him sticking her tongue out.

Frisk shook that thought from his head very quick, "Hey, we worked it out. Besides your like what? Over a hundred, it shouldn't bother you." he chuckled.

"Says the guy who wore a tutu.." She snapped back starting to wander around the house looking at things.

"You made me do that when you...ya know..." He frowned.

"Eh potato, patato..." she shrugged.

Frisk sighed and lay back not wanting to talk anymore 'Who the heck says patato..?' he thought. Listening to the quiet of the empty monster-less town he would start to nod of, eventually falling asleep.
