chapter three: through the booty glass
frisk fell several feet while screaming bloody dust before finally falling into something cold and soft.
"king asgore?" she asked.
no answer. she pushed herself up. she was in snowdin, and had just fallen onto a bed of golden flowers! but they weren't golden, they were red! thus they were called ruby flowers instead.
"wow this is weird" said frisk and she pushed herself up. in this timeline, snowdin was the first part of the underground instead of the ruins. if she squinted into the distance, she could see a figure standing in the mist where she fought papyrus.
"p-p-p-p-papyrus-s-s-s-s-s-s?" she stuttered like alphys and walked into the mist. when she got closer, she saw the figure of flowey!
"hi!" he said. "i'm FLOWEY! flowey the-"
"ASRIEL?!" frisk cried and hugged him. "I'M SO SORRY I COULDNT SAVE YOU!" she said and remembered how she had to leave him in the underground.
"what?! get offa me!" flowey snapped and wiggled out of frisk's grip. it was at this moment that she saw this flowey had red petals like the other flowers. "im not asriel!"
"well then who are you?" frisk asked.
"i'm undyne!" flowey said angrily. "and you're going DOWN PUNK!"
frisk screamed and suddenly a hot pillar of fire blasted across the battlefield and burned flowey to the ground! frisk looked up. it was toriel!
"what a miserable creature trying to hurt a sweet innocent child" she said.
frisk gazed up at her goat momma and started crying because she remembered her own toriel, sick and dying back home from tuberculosis. seeing this healthy toriel reminded her of her mission and filled her with determination.
alternate timeline toriel looked at frisk and gasped. "are you hurt my child?" frisk ran up to her and toirel gave her a big hug. "there there, do not cry. follow me, i will guide you through the burger-lined catacombs," she said and turned around to walk into a cave full of grillby's franchises.
frisk was about to follow her when she saw something glowing in the corner. also it was sobbing violently. she walked over to it. it was a chunk of gaster!
"there you are you little scamp!" frisk said but stopped to watch toriel walk farther down the hall. she smiled. "see you soon, mom" she said and grabbed the gaster chunk. in a flash, she fell back into mettaton's studio, still clutching the chunk, and the portal closed like a sphincter (thats the scientific word for a hole in the body, including the hole in your butt which is super gross. but there are several more just like it throughout your body, but not all of them have poop in them. some of them are even at the ends of the stomach and you wouldn't want poop there!) mettaton was sitting in a director's chair drinking tea and eating a jammy dodger while proofreading his latest script.
"i see you found the first one." he said.
"yep!" frisk said proudly, holding it up. gaster's cries of terror still echoed from within.
"i dragged out a trunk from the back, you can put the pieces in there," he said, pointing to a metal bound leather trunk.
"thanks!" frisk said and opened it and removed the skeleton before setting gaster's chunk inside. she closed it but the screams could still be heard. "back in i go!" she said and ran and jumped into the second portal.
several hours later, frisk had collected six out of the seven pieces and the screaming from within the trunk was almost unbearable. she'd been through a lava timeline where hotland had overflowed into all of the underground, a timeline where it was still the 80s and king asgore had a big fluffy blonde pompadour and was singing like cyndi lauper, and even one where everything was the same, but frisk didn't exist. haha, the thought terrified her
frisk jumped in and fell into waterfall. no bed of flowers this time... no bed of anything. waterfall was silent, and the water seemed to be flowing... slower?
frisk stood up. "man this place is creepy," she said. "don't get scared frisk, just listen for screaming, find the chunk and get out."
suddenly there was a moaning sound coming from the direction of snowdin! frisk started shaking. rolling into the cool dampness was papyrus' head!
"FEEEEEEED MEEEEEEE... FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEED MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE..."
"papyrus?" frisk asked, scared. she trembled as his head rolled over to her, then stopped once he saw her.
"FRISK?!" he shrieked. "D-D-DON'T COME NEAR ME!"
frisk ran up to him anyway and he started rolling as fast he could back into snowdin. frisk finally pounced on him like a football and he started screaming in fear.
"NO! DON'T HURT ME HUMAN! I ONLY WANTED TO HELP YOU" papyrus' head said.
"papyrus what are you talking about?" frisk asked
papyrus' eyes bugged out and tears fell from them. but it was cold in snowdin so they froze to his face. "YOU CHOPPED ME HEAD OFF HUMAN! THEN YOU WENT AND KILLED EVERYONE ELSE!"
frisk gasped and dropped papyrus' head and he said "OW." "i... i didn't..." frisk said, then realized this was her last timeline! her bad time route!
"papyrus... i'm so sorry," frisk said and picked up the skeleskull. "please, you have to forgive me."
"WELL, IF YOURE REALLY SORRY..." papyrus said and smiled. "I'M HUNGRY. LET'S EAT!"
frisk took the hungry skull to grillby's. it was empty. frisk set papyrus on the counter and whipped up something for him. because he was just a skull the only thing she could give him was runny eggs so she fed him with a spoon but the eggs still fell through his jaw and made a huge mess on the counter.
"papyrus, tell me, what happened after i left you?" frisk asked.
chara phased into existence. "YOU MORDORED EVERYONE!"
"SHUT UP" frisk shouted and threw hot oil at chara from the pan.
"WELL SANS WENT TO MY GRAVE AND CRIED OVER MY COLD DEAD DUST WHICH WASHED IT AWAY AND I WAS ANGRY ABOUT THAT BECAUSE THEN I WOULDNT HAVE A PROPER FUNERAL AND SO I PRETENDED TO BE COMPLETELY DEAD TO MAKE HIM FEEL WORSE. THEN HE LEFT FOR THE CAPITAL."
"oh man" frisk said and gave him another spoonful of eggs. "how long ago was that?"
"AFH FHW HRFWRS?" papyrus tried to speak but his mouth was full and he started choking.
"oh no he's probably about to fight me right now!" frisk said, scared.
"OH BOY!" chara said happily. "WE CAN WATCH HIM DIE AGAIN!"
"no!" frisk argued "we have to find the last gaster chunk. papyrus, have you heard any supernatural screaming around here?"
but papyrus had already choked to death on the eggs.
"i guess not" frisk said and got up. "let's go chara"
frisk and chara left grillby's and looked around snowdin but there was nothing there. the whole place was dead quiet and chara laughed at the pun. frisk worried that the chunk was in the ruins and they couldn't get back to the ruins because it was locked permanently after you leave in this route! they checked in waterfall too and found nothing except gerson who waved his cane at them and shouted "i'll get you crazy kids wahaha!" so chara grabbed her knife from frisks back pocket and whoo boy i can't go into detail on that scene. they were about to check with the river person too until the person saw them and pulled the cord on the boat faster than you can say "GRILLBY'S HAS THE BEST BUNS IN TOWN" and took off and chara started swearing. they continued into hotland and over the lava and through the core until they heard it - gaster's petrified screams of horror!
"THERE HE IS!" frisk screamed and grabbed chara. "THIS WAY!"
they ran through all of the core until they reached new home and they kept running! then, finally, they reached it... the last corridor. frisk gasped. there, in the middle, were sans and frisk from her last route... and they were fighting! and the gaster chunk was on the opposite side of the corridor!
END OF CHAPTER 3~
