"Undyne, it's Frisk. Frisk — Undyne, you know her."

Sans finally introduced me and girl to each other. She smiled widely. I just scornfully looked at her from the bottom up and pointedly snickered, having turned to the other side. For my surprise, child's face didn't change at all. From the first seconds I've already understood, that we won't get along with each other.

"I hope, you two will become friends. Undyne, it totally depends on you."

"Yeah, of course. Have no doubt."

"Undyne…" held out Sans and looked at me suspiciously.

"Calm down, I won't touch her," I replied, having crossed my fingers behind the back.

The next few hours went so «brilliant» for me. Despite my tiredness, I went for a walk with Sans and Frisk, giving all this away for the attempts to make up friends. Although, I didn't want to see this girl any second longer. I just wanted to kill her when the chance will appear. Strangely, but for Sans my actions didn't seem so suspicious. On the contrary, he approvingly smiled to me, having commented the situation with a phrase:

"See? You're already trying to make up friends. Progress. Not like in the previous times, isn't it?"

He smiled and slightly pushed Frisk with his elbow. She giggled and took Sans by his hand. I didn't completely get what exactly was he talking about, but still reluctantly also smiled. Firstly I thought, that he had in his mind today's events, but then I thought about the previous resets.

All that time that we were walking around Snowdin, Sans and Frisk constantly were animatedly talking, without stopping even for a second. I didn't really dig into their conversation, getting deep in my thoughts. That time I was only hoping them to finally get bored of this. Although, judging by the fact that it has already passed a half an hour, and Sans was still much energetic than usual, our walk wasn't going to end. Of course, it's not in my way of complaining, but I already felt myself pretty cold and was beginning to regret and getting angry at myself for that I didn't go home. But finally a miracle happened. When Sans, actively gesticulating, was happily talking about something to the girl, a phone call suddenly interrupted him.

"Hello… yep… what?!" smile immediately went off his face. "God, Paps, forgive me, I completely forgot about it. I'll be there right now," he put phone into the pocket and turned to Frisk. "Have a chat, you two. I'll be at Grillby's, kid. Undyne, if something happens to her-" he raised a menacing gaze at me.

"Yeah, I got it. I won't touch her," I said calmly, again having crossed my fingers in pocket.

These words calmed the guy a little down and in the next second he teleported. Frisk sadly sighed, but then again got happy. I was so glad us to left alone. As she told to Sans, with every death it's harder for her to rise. And it'll her last time. It was the only phrase I remembered from their conversation. Meanwhile, Frisk, having stood still a while, came to me and hugged my arm. For a second it seemed quite cute even for me, but, having come to my senses quickly, I again became serious. "I have to remember why am I here!". I pulled my arm from her hugs and looked at her with hater. The girl, in her turn, raised at me an imploring gaze. This softened me for a moment again. But I immediately shook my head and pushed the girl away from me.

"Listen up, Frisk. I will never be a friend with you. It's clear?! So enough to stick to me and be sweet with me!"

"But Undyne-"

"No «but Undyne»! I just wanna you to die already!" I yelled angrily, having surrounded her with arrows.

"Please, don't! I can help!"

"Yes, you can! By dying and giving Asgore your fucking soul!"

I was infuriated by her kindness and desire to help. The human can help monsters only in one way. Despite my words, Frisk maybe still trying to hope for my mercy, raised a pleading gaze on me. It was showing two definitely different fillings — hopelessness and fear, and faith in something good, although the last was much less. I just angrily smiled.

"Well, let's see what you're made of, punk!"

Behind me there appeared a couple of arrows, which have immediately flown into the girl. But she could avoid them, as she knew where will they fly. And the same five times in a row. I was even alternating spears coming out from the ground with arrows, but couldn't even touch her. And thought anger and violence were raging in me, some part of me was pleasantly surprised with such a strong opponent. Still, love for competitions can't be taken away from me. But something was infuriating me — that she was constantly pressing the «Mercy» button and wasn't even trying to hit me.

"And this is all you can?! And you still call yourself The Head of The Royal Guard?!"

"I was just warming up! And now the real battle!"

I snapped my fingers and Frisk's soul changed its color from red to green, and in her hands she got the same colored shield.

"You should learn to face-"

"«-danger head-on», yeah, I perfectly know it, enough beating around the blush!" she unceremoniously interrupted me, getting ready to my next attacks.

This has only more rekindled my desire to kill the girl. Blue and red arrows began to surround her, but after a few minutes they could take away only five her HP from twenty. Frisk was repelling everything almost ideally, and for a second I really thought that we'll be able to become nice friends. But soon luck turned away from her, as I finally used yellow arrows and in a few attacks Fisk had four HP. There was only one hit left.

However, when I again turned her soul into the red one, she suddenly turned around and rushed to the forest. Because of the suddenness I froze for a few seconds, having unknowingly removed all the spears in the air. But soon having come to my senses, I dashed for Frisk, who has already run to at least twenty meters.

And this girl runs rather pretty good! During ten minutes of the pursuit, even with my strength, I managed to get close to her only for a couple of meters. Moreover, all my energy was concentrated only at chasing Frisk, so it was difficult to accurately and strongly shoot at her. But the most annoying thing were Papyrus' puzzles. Although they were solved, it wasn't very pleasant to jump on the ice floes and to get discharge currents, to put it mildly.

Yet in a five minutes, for my luck, the girl noticeably lowered her speed and was already out of her breath. However, despite the fact that I was one of the fastest monsters in the whole Underground, I also began to get exhausted, and a deep snow was only slowing me down. And yet, theoretically, the running had to warm me, but for some reason it wasn't helping me at all.

Suddenly for a second everything darkened in front of my eye. Due to this on a great velocity I fell over some branch, flew ahead for a couple of meters and fell on my knees after this. Having stopped hearing my steps, Frisk abruptly slowed down and turned to me. I tried to rise, but my arms were treacherously starting to shake strong every time I was leaning on them.

"I… no, I can't… give up… now… I have to… win…!" I angrily hissed to myself, still uselessly trying to rise.

Having slightly raised my head to the girl I noticed that she has only lightly smiled and started to approach to me. She took my elbows and began to help me to get up, but I immediately pushed her away. But suddenly in the next second I felt a strong hit into the chest. Everything began to blur in front of my eyes and the last thing I saw was… Sans' blaster. "How the hell did he know?!", flashed in my head, but I almost immediately lost my consciousness. And the last thing I heard was Frisk's scream: "Sans, no!".

"Hey! Come on, come to your senses, I know I didn't kill you!"

I slowly opened my eyes and blinked a few times, trying to adjust to the bright lighting. All the body was aching, so I immediately looked at my HP. And it was… 0.01?! Only one hundredth from a couple dozen hundreds! "What the-?!". But in a second I remembered that blaster and realized everything. "Scum…", with this mind I raised my head and saw… Sans, who was carefree standing, leaning his back on the wardrobe and tapping some melody on it by his fingers. Because of pain even by moving pupils, I involuntarily moaned, which has attracted his attention. Finally, having turned to my side, he exhaled with relieve, but didn't come to me.

"Finally. You know, I've already started to worry."

"You… you've almost killed me…! Bastard…" I hissed, suffocating a little.

"But didn't kill. Moreover, you were warned."

Sans approached to me and began to help me to stand up, but I immediately pushed him away.

"Hands off! I can stand up by myself…" I snapped at him, trying to find at least something behind.

Only now I realized, that I'm lying on the floor in my room, near my bed. Well, at least he has brought me home. Leaning on the bed, I somehow rose and collapsed on it. Then I thought, that it is the most soft and comfortable thing I've ever felt. For some time I and Sans weren't talking. I had no strengths for it. Even after the reset I felt myself better. I fell asleep for a while, but soon Sans' voice woke me up.

"Listen, I told you not to touch Frisk. She is the only one who can bring us to the Surface."

"Humans can't… be kind… Didn't you still get it…?! And if Chara will wake up in her again…?" barely audible a asked, without opening my eyes.

"You don't remember all the rest resets and you can't judge her! Moreover, I can vouch for her. And if you touch her yet once, I'll protect her by any cost," Sans coldly looked at me.

"Okay. But… if you think she's that good, then why was she resetting the world after our rising to the Surface?"

"She… ehem… she had reasons for it, and I don't want to talk about it," he nervously replied, having significantly darkened. I looked at him triumphantly, but he quickly changed the theme. "By the way, in a few minutes there have to come someone who will stay here until you'll feel yourself better."

"What?! I don't need a fucking babysitter!"

"Do you have something against-?"

He was interrupted by a doorbell rang. It seemed, that we both weren't quite glad of company of each other, as he with some relief and hope to leave quickly, went to the door. I heard a click sound and then yelling of familiar voice:

"Are you mad?! And what if you really killed her?! Did you think about the others?! You know, I won't take it! And Papyrus! I don't know what I'll do with you if she dies!"

Alphys immediately began to shout at him and I saw, how she is stretching out her hands to his neck.

"Al, stop it! I knew, that telling you everything wasn't quite good idea."

Sans started to fight back with his bodes, having set a shield in front of himself, but it wasn't stopping Alphys at all.

"Alphy, calm down… I'm alright…" I finally filed my voice from the other room.

The door was opened, so Al immediately stopped trying to suffocate Sans and turned a happy gaze to me.

"Oh… y-you've already w-woken up…? Ehem… I-I meant…" she blushed a lot, but I just smiled to her, due what she became a little braver, came to the bed and hugged me. "I-I'm glad you're okay."

"And yeah, on the table there are cinnamon bu-"

"We'll figure it out somehow without you!" I and Alphys interrupted him at one time.

Sans just shrugged and in the next second teleported away. After that my mood rose. Even moving wasn't that painfully. That's what calls «wrong company». I looked at the table. There really was a packet with cinnamon buns. Hm, my favorites. Why is Sans that kind? Anyway, that time I had no strength to think about it. The only important thing was that after eating them my condition got much better, although the whole body was still aching. Well, I already could sit and speak. At least something.

"D-do you feel yourself b-better?"

"Yes," I took Alphys' hand and slightly smiled. "Thank you for coming."

"L-listen, why did y-you touch that girl?" she asked after a few minutes of silence. "S-sans warned you and he s-sounded quite seriously."

"I didn't think he'll come that soon. Moreover, Asgore needs only one more soul to destroy the barrier."

"I-I understand, but you can just try-"

"God, you too?!" she was the last person I was expecting this from.

"J-just… Sans was talking s-so surely…" she sighed and, having turned away, whispered to herself: "Although, the last time started almost the same…"

"Yeah…" I replied automatically, but in a couple of seconds my brain totally understood that phrase. "Wait, what?!"

"Yes, f-for some reason I also r-remember the last reset."

"Sans told you about it, didn't he?" I asked calmly, still coming to my senses. Alphys nodded. "Does he know?"

"N-no, I haven't told him yet."

"Wait, at the first day-"

"Honestly, that time I thought, that I only had a bad dream. B-but after a talk with y-you, I remembered about what Sans t-told me a long time ago and then… It happened already on th-that week.

"Interesting, is it a massive glitch?"

"M-maybe. Mettaton also remembers everything."

For a few minutes there was silence, interrupted only by echo-flowers' ringing coming from the outside. I still was trying to understand, why does everyone remember exactly this reset. Was it somehow connected with Chara, or like I've already said, was an ordinary glitch? That's why Papyrus didn't even ask about Chara that time. Does at least someone knows, how to explain this everything?

Al, waving in front of my face, brought me back from my thoughts.

"Undyne…"

"Yeah?"

"P-please, give Frisk at least one chance-"

"God, don't start it aga-" I rolled my eyes.

"No! If you don't care about Sans, then just listen to me!" her perseverance surprised me, as she has never interrupted me. "I-I saw her behavior to you, Sans, other monsters. A-and it was more than sincere. O-of course, it could be false, but I think she is not like at last time."

"Alphys, I understand, but I think killing her will be the fastest and the most reliable way."

"N-no, it won't! Have you heard what Sans said?!"

"And have you believed him?! He won't do it!"

"Believe me. If he said, he'll do. I-I just don't want you to be hurt or even more…" she pleadingly looked at my eyes.

"Hey, why are you so confident about Frisk?"

"I… I don't know. B-but something tells me that she's good. A-and if Sans tells the truth, she really could help us to get to the Surface."

"I'm not sure…"

"U-undyne, I understand your desire to protect us and destroy the barrier. But one chance, is it that difficult? T-try to make up friends with her, for me. Moreover, y-you're much stronger than she and you can kill her in every moment," she faltered, but then I saw a sparkle in her eyes. "H-hey, just prove to yourself, that you can make friends even with your enemy!"

"Is it a challenge?"

"W-well… maybe," she replied, widely smiling. "Y-you like them, don't you?"

"Al…" for a second I ranged, but after all agreed. "Okay. Although it won't be easy, I'll try."

"J-just promise, that you'll try to kill her only if she will threaten someone's life."

"I… I promise," having closed my eye, I hugged and kissed Alphys in the forehead. "But she has only one chance."
