A/N: Sorry if this is rushed and all, I just want to get the kids out of Snowdin. Also, if you've read the original, you'll know more about the suicide story, and I have something to say about that at the end. Only if you're interested of course.


Faye didn't know what to do. Brayden was punching trees, looking really ticked off. Snow covered him, making him look like a living pile of snow. Faye had to admit it: she was a little scared. She wasn't used to people who yelled a lot.

Faye cautiously walked up to Brayden, who was shaking his head, getting some snow out of his hair.

"Hi," she said quietly.

"What do you want?!" Brayden asked angrily, folding his arms.

"I just wanted to say sorry," Faye replied. "T… Toriel asked me to look after Chara, but I couldn't stop them from being a jerk. So if you want to punch me…"

"I COULD PUNCH ANYTHING!" Brayden yelled. He made a face. "But I don't wanna punch you. I wanna punch that freaking wimp Chara!"

"But it's my fault…" Faye sighed. "So you should punch me instead…"

"But you're cute!" Brayden yelled. He realized what he said. He and Faye blushed. "Uh… I mean, for a girl! Eh… uh… I mean, my sisters would say you're cute, but, eh, uh…" He held his fist out. "EH! WHO CARES! JUST FORGET WHAT I SAID!"

"You have sisters?" Faye asked. She looked up. "That's nice… I wish I knew what it's like to have siblings…"

"My sisters are ANNOYING!" Brayden yelled. He looked down. "But… dang it… I kinda miss…" He trembled. "WHY DID I LISTEN TO HIM?!" He punched another tree, causing even more snow to fall on him. He yelled a bunch of bad words.

"... listen to him?" Faye asked. She helped Brayden climb out of the pile of snow.

"My dad," Brayden grumbled. "It's a long story, but there was this girl…" His voice cracked up. He growled. "No…! I'm not gonna cry! Real men don't…!" He paused. "So, I was with these bullies, and… they told me to pick on this girl who…" He clenched his fist. He was trembling even more.

"You don't have to tell me if it's too sad." Faye said quietly.

"NO!" Brayden yelled. "I'll tell it!" He paused again. "This girl… she… killed… she killed… herself…" He punched another tree. The snow didn't even bother him this time. "AND IT'S ALL MY FAULT! 'CAUSE OF THAT, I NEVER HAD ANY FRIENDS, I DITCHED THE BULLIES, AND EVERYONE HATED ME! ESPECIALLY MY DAD!" Brayden kept punching trees and getting covered in snow. "HE HATED ME MORE THAN ANYONE! HE TOLD ME TO CLIMB UP THIS MOUNTAIN!" He screamed and punched the snow. Faye hadn't seen someone so emotionally distraught for a long time. She took a deep breath. She knew what she had to do.

She sat down next to Brayden and gave him a gentle hug. He blushed in surprise. He wasn't really a fan of hugs. But this one was… different. He tightly hugged Faye back. For some reason, he kept feeling… all tingly and strange. He felt… different towards this girl than other people. He didn't understand these feelings.

"I see how it is." someone said dryly. It was Frisk, eyeing the two hugging. Brayden and Faye immediately backed away from each other and stood up. Frisk made a face. "I… I wanna be jealous… but you two look adorable!" They squealed like a fan-girl.

"This is not what I came back for." Chara groaned. Brayden frowned. They were back.

"You're wearing Frisk's gloves." Faye noticed, eyeing Chara.

"Yes," Chara said, sounding very dead inside. They stared at Brayden for a bit. They sighed. "I am an insensitive prick. Sometimes I wish I was not so. However. I'm not here to compliment you and say you were in the right. That is not my thing." They paused. "I'm here to say only one thing that I will not repeat…" They looked away, wrinkling their nose. "... sorry…." They looked back, a glint in their eye. "Brayden."

"HEY!" Brayden grinned. "YOU SAID MY NAME RIGHT!" He stood up and walked over to Chara. He gave them a noogie.

"Excuse me! That does not give you permission to touch me!" Chara yelped, jumping away. They fixed their hair.

"Hey," Brayden stared at them. "I'm sorry too. For scaring you. Frisk said you were, like, worried about your buddy Asriel or something?"

"A little more than worried," Chara mumbled. They nodded. "It's complicated. But for now, Braylin, I will allow you to be my accomplice."

"DID YOU GET MY NAME WRONG AGAIN?!" Brayden yelled. "OH COME ON! YOU GOT IT RIGHT BEFORE!"

"I am merely 'making a joke'," Chara said, raising their brow. "Satire is my type of humor." Brayden looked confused. "Nevermind."


The kids approached Doggo. It was a fight that involved not moving. Brayden wasn't too fond of that. Faye was quite fond of it. Frisk waved their stick in the air. Doggo chased after it, glee in his eyes. Brayden sighed in relief when the battle finished. Afterwards, the kids found Sans.

"oh, hey, it's you, kid," Sans chuckled, grinning at Brayden. "where'd you run off to?"

"He got stuck in a box." Chara answered, smirking.

"CHARA!" Brayden yelled.

"heh heh," Sans laughed. Brayden growled. "anyway, here's some advice for fighting my brother."

"Blue stop signs." Frisk said, folding their arms.

"you're good, kid," Sans said, raising his brow. "how'd you know that?" Frisk shrugged innocently. Chara rolled their eyes.

"Do you have any advice to make this quest quicker?" they asked Sans. "You said you would help us."

"yeah, i do," Sans replied. He pointed at Frisk. "ask them." Chara sighed.


After the kids skated on some ice and Brayden fell on his face, the kids found Sans, Papyrus and a puzzle. It looked like a patch of flat snow. Chara faced their fr- accomplices with a frown.

"Sans says we have to 'go along' with whatever his brother requires us to do," they explained. "So we have to deal with this minor disruption."

"But I like Papyrus…" Faye commented.

"I like Papyrus too." Frisk said sensually, wiggling their eyebrows.

"Well I don't!" Brayden grumbled, folding his arms.

"Ah, something we can agree on," Chara said, eyeing him. The kids eyed the skeleton brothers, who were arguing over something.

"OH-HO!" Papyrus exclaimed, eyeing the kids. "THE HUMANS ARRIVE! AND THE LITTLE BABY ORANGE ONE IS THERE TOO!"

"HEY!" Brayden yelled. "MY NAME IS BRAYDEN! AND I'M A MAN, NOT A BABY!" Chara snorted. Brayden glared at them.

"IN ORDER TO STOP YOU…" Papyrus continued. "MY BROTHER AND I HAVE CREATED SOME PUZZLES! I THINK YOU WILL FIND THIS ONE… QUITE SHOCKING! FOR YOU SEE, THIS IS THE INVISIBLE… ELECTRICITY MAZE!"

Faye laughed at the pun. She said, "You know, I bet it hertz." Everyone groaned.

"i like that kid." Sans said, eyeing Faye.

"ANYWAY!" Papyrus yelled. "WHEN YOU TOUCH THE WALLS OF THIS MAZE- HEY, MAN/WOMAN WITH THE STICK, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Frisk was walking through the puzzle. They reached the end.

"WHY DO THEY GET TO BE A CALLED A MAN/WOMAN?!" Brayden exasperated.

"I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED THE PUZZLE YET!" Papyrus exclaimed, eyeing Frisk. "HOW DID YOU SOLVE IT?!"

"Because I'm hardcore." Frisk answered. Chara sighed and shook their head.


The kids stopped by the Nice-Cream guy's van and bought some Nice Creams.

"No thank you," Chara declined Frisk offering them a Nice Cream. "I am not nice. I don't deserve a Nice Cream."

"Aw c'mon Chara." Frisk said encouragingly. Chara sighed and accepted a Nice Cream. They observed the packaging.

"Love yourself! I love you!" it read. Chara laughed like it was a joke.

"Oh don't you worry, I do." they said. They ripped up the package and ate their ice-cream. Frisk tilted their head. Meanwhile, Brayden and Faye were doing the snowball golf game. Brayden was yelling at the snowball as it kept getting stuck on the corners. Faye tried to be a little more patient with it, gently pushing it around and figuring out how strongly she had to push it. They ended up putting the ball in the hole together. They blushed and stared at each other. Frisk kept making kissy faces. Brayden put his fist in his palm.


"HUMANS!" Papyrus exclaimed. "I HOPE YOU'RE READY FOR…!" He paused.

"What?" Chara asked. They eyed the ground. Sitting on it was a puzzle. "A piece of paper on the ground?" Frisk hit their shoulder. "Oh, what are you going on about? You walked right through Papyrus' electricity maze."

"AND I HATE PUZZLES!" Brayden agreed. Sans was giving the kids the stink-eye. Chara sighed.

"Go on." they said, jerking their head at the skeletons.

"the puzzle's right there, on the ground," Sans said, winking. "trust me, there's no way they can get past this one."

"For goodness' sake, no one is going to waste their time with that," Chara said, glaring at the puzzle. "I suggest we all find a way to bypass these puzzles." Sans glared at Chara. Chara bit their lip.

"This puzzle doesn't look so bad…" Faye said, eyeing the puzzle. "I wonder what 'giasfclfebrehber' means."

"ONLY THE LIGHT BLUE HUMAN IS INTERESTED, SANS!" Papyrus exclaimed. "THIS IS USELESS!"

"whoops," Sans chuckled. "i knew i should have used today's crossword instead."

"WHAT?! CROSSWORD?!" Papyrus exclaimed like it was something disgusting. "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU SAID THAT! IN MY OPINION… JUNIOR JUMBLE IS EASILY THE HARDEST."

"what?" Sans asked incredulously. "really, dude? that easy-peasey word scramble? that's for baby bones."

"I am really losing my patience." Chara grumbled.

"This happens in basically every normal timeline, Chara." Frisk whispered.

"I know, but that does not mean I have to like it." Chara grumbled.

"UN. BELIEVABLE!" Papyrus exclaimed. "HUMANS! SOLVE THIS DISPUTE!"

"Which is harder?" Chara asked. "Jumble or Crossword?"

"Why're you askin' that?" Brayden gave Chara a glance. "Also what the heck is 'junior jumble'?"

Chara sighed.


"SPAGHETTI!" Brayden exclaimed, running up to a table. A plate of frozen spaghetti was sitting on it, next to a microwave. He groaned. "IT'S FROZEN!"

"What a shame," Chara commented carelessly. They eyed the microwave. "It's not even plugged in."

"Well, it doesn't matter," Frisk replied. "The spaghetti isn't very good."

"BUT I'M HUNGRY!" Brayden complained.

"Trust me," Frisk repeated slowly. "It is not good." Brayden wondered how they knew that. Probably because they were hardcore.


"Aww, it's a puppy…" Faye cooed, eyeing the Lesser Dog in front of her. The dog panted. Frisk held up their stick. "Wait! I want to pet it." Faye scratched behind the dog's ears. The dog panted even more; its neck grew quite a length.

"She barely patted the dog," Chara said, shaking their head. They looked up at the dog. "Barely!"

"Dogs are weird." Brayden commented. Frisk went over to pat the dog as well.

"Frisk, no!" Chara yelped. Too late. The dog had already become like a giraffe. Chara face-palmed. Unfortunately for Chara, their dog troubles were not over. The kids were later attacked by Dogamy and Dogaressa, a dog wife and husband. Faye grinned.

"Aww, I love these puppies." she said brightly. Chara and Brayden held her (and Frisk) back, stopping them from petting the dogi.

"Their necks aren't gonna grow, are they?!" Brayden asked Chara.

"No, thank Asgore," Chara answered. They eyed Frisk. "But we do not need anymore dog trouble. Frisk, use your stick and show mercy. No funny business."

"You're boring, Chara." Frisk replied grumpily. They threw the stick. The dogi chased after it. Faye thought it was adorable. Chara and Brayden looked at each other with relief.


"Turn every X into an O," Chara read a sign. "Then press the switch."

"I've got it." Frisk said. They eyed a puzzle on the ground. Snow was surrounding an X and an O. A switch was above it. To the side was a wall of spikes.

"WHAT?!" Papyrus yelped, eyeing the children. "HOW DID YOU AVOID MY TRAP?!"

"This dofus again." Chara groaned.

"AND, MORE IMPORTANTLY…" Papyrus continued. He brightened up. "IS THERE ANY LEFT FOR ME?!"

"Yeah, 'cause Frisk said it wasn't good!" Brayden yelled. "So you get the whole thing!"

"WHAT!" Papyrus exclaimed. Frisk was about to say something, but he interrupted them. "THAT MEANS… YOU MUST THINK… IT TASTES GREAT INSTEAD! WOWIE! WELL, FEAR NOT, HUMANS! I, MASTER CHEF PAPYRUS, WILL MAKE YOU ALL THE PASTA YOU COULD EVER WANT! HEH HEH HEH HEH HEH NYEH!" He raced off, his scarf flowing behind him.

"Insufferable, that skeleton." Chara grimaced.

"Insuffywhat?" Brayden asked. He shook his head. "DO YOU EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH!?"

"Insufferable," Chara said, folding their arms. "It means you can't handle something."

"Oh, thank goodness you asked that, Brayden," Faye looked relieved. "I don't know what Chara is saying a lot of the time either."

"Then why don't you ask me about it?" Chara asked Faye.

"I don't want to be rude..." Faye answered, looking down.

"Good grief." Chara face-palmed.


"HUMANS!" Papyrus exclaimed. The kids joined him beside another X's and O's puzzle. It was… somewhat shaped like his face. Papyrus frowned. "HMM… HOW DO I SAY THIS. YOU WERE TAKING A LONG TIME TO ARRIVE, SO I DECIDED TO IMPROVE THIS PUZZLE… BY ARRANGING THE SNOW TO LOOK MORE LIKE MY FACE. UNFORTUNATELY, THE SNOW FROZE TO THE GROUND. NOW THE SOLUTION IS DIFFERENT! AND, AS USUAL, MY LAZY BROTHER IS NOWHERE AROUND."

"Indeed." Chara grumbled.

"I SUPPOSE WHAT I AM SAYING IS…" Papyrus' scarf flew back in the wind (where are all these theatrical things coming from? Rose petals, random wind, George Michael songs…). "WORRY NOT, HUMANS! I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, WILL SOLVE THIS CONUNDRUM! THEN WE CAN BOTH PROCEED! MEANWHILE, FEEL FREE TO SOLVE THIS PUZZLE YOURSELVES. I'LL TRY NOT TO GIVE AWAY THE ANSWER!"

"Do we have to?" Brayden whined.

"Nope," Frisk replied. They walked over to a tree and flipped a switch. The puzzle was solved.

"WOW!" Papyrus exclaimed. "YOU SOLVED IT! INCREDIBLE! I'M IMPRESSED! YOU MUST CARE ABOUT PUZZLES LIKE I DO! WELL, I'M SURE YOU'LL LOVE THE NEXT PUZZLE THEN! IT MIGHT EVEN BE TOO EASY FOR YOU! NYEH! HEH HEH! HEH HEH HEH!"

"You have no idea how much I care about puzzles," Chara mumbled. "You simply can't have an idea, because there is no idea. I don't care about puzzles."

"Do you speak in puzzles?!" Brayden asked Chara.

"Do you have a brain in that bandanna-wrapped skull of yours?" Chara asked, folding their arms. Brayden growled.

"I think Chara and Brayden are becoming good friends." Faye told Frisk. Frisk nodded in agreement.

"You and Brayden look like… good friends too." Frisk said, smirking.

"Yeah, he's nice…" Faye commented dreamily. "I hope he likes me."

"Oh," Frisk smirked. "I'm sure he does."


"HEY!" Papyrus yelled. The kids were standing before what looked like a grey checkerboard. Sans and Papyrus were on the other side, next to the machine that powered the puzzle. "IT'S THE HUMANS! YOU'RE GONNA LOVE THIS PUZZLE! IT WAS MADE BY THE GREAT DR. ALPHYS! YOU SEE THESE TILES?! ONCE I THROW THIS SWITCH… THEY WILL BEGIN TO CHANGE COLOUR! EACH COLOUR HAS A DIFFERENT FUNCTION! RED TILES ARE IMPASSABLE! YOU CANNOT WALK ON THEM! YELLOW TILES ARE ELECTRIC…"

Chara zoned out. They stared at the cringe-inducing red glove on their hand. They trembled. Would this really protect them forever? Asriel's face appeared in their head.

Yeah, I remember. When we tried to make butterscotch pie for Dad, right? The recipe asked for cups of butter, but we accidentally put in buttercups instead.

Those flowers made him extremely unwell…

Yeah! Those flowers made him so sick. I felt so bad. We made Mom really upset. I should have laughed it off, like you did…

"Asriel…" Chara mumbled. The puzzle had gone red. Papyrus was gone. Chara shook their head. What happened? Brayden was laughing his butt off. Faye and Frisk were giggling. Chara didn't understand. Why was everyone suddenly laughing? What had they missed?

"Okay, even though I've seen that a million times, it's still hilarious." Frisk giggled. Chara looked dumbfounded. Frisk raised their brow. "Are you okay, Chara?"

"Don't talk to me." Chara grumbled. They walked across the puzzle, their head down. Brayden chased after them.

"Chara looks upset…" Faye said, making a face.

"Of course they do," Frisk replied dryly. "They're always upset."


"Who the heck made all these snow-dogs?" Brayden asked. He and Chara were observing a bunch of crafted snow-dogs with long necks. A sentry station and a reindeer monster were there as well.

"That Lesser Dog we saw before," Chara answered. "Such determination."

"I bet I could make an awesome snowman!" Brayden cheered.

"I'd like to see you try, with your lack of intelligence." Chara replied, kicking the snow. Brayden growled and started making a snowman. Chara made a face. "It seems the dog is not the only one with determination."

"I wanna make a snowman too." Faye said brightly. She frowned. "But I don't have any gloves."

"Hey, Chara, can I have my gloves back for a bit?" Frisk asked Chara.

"No!" Chara answered, suddenly panicking. "I… I need them to… make a snowman too!" They started making a snowman of their own. They hastily built its body, shoving the snow together.

"OH IT'S ON!" Brayden yelled at them. Chara made the snowman a little bigger, giving it a face and ears. It turned into what Chara hoped was a snow Asriel. They even gave it a smile. Asriel was always smiling. Chara laughed. They missed Asriel more than words could describe. Meanwhile, Brayden had attempted to make a snow-man, except very manly. He'd added biceps and everything. Supposedly. I mean, I don't know how you add biceps to a snowman.

"I think Chara's has more… emotion in it, so it's a better snowman," Frisk commented. They eyed Brayden. "Sorry, Brayden." Brayden stuck his tongue out at Chara. Chara rolled their eyes. They looked at Snow Asriel once more. They laughed again. If they didn't laugh, they'd cry. [A/N: That's totally not my DeviantArt tagline or anything… ehhh.]


After another X's and O's puzzle, the kids were faced with two paths.

"We're not going down that way," Chara said, eyeing the path below them. "We need to get to Snowdin."

"Aww…" Faye said, looking sad.

"I'll go there with you if you want, Faye." Frisk told her with a wink.

"That would be nice…" Faye sighed. Frisk squeezed her shoulder, giving her a sensual smile. For some reason, Brayden couldn't help but feel… jealous. He didn't like Frisk looking at Faye like that.

"Splitting up, are we?" Chara asked, frowning.

"You can go ahead, Chara," Frisk told them. They looked at Brayden. "What about you, Brayden?" They whispered into his ear, "Please go with Chara. I'm worried they'll walk off on us if we let them go alone." Brayden gritted his teeth. "Don't worry, I'm not going to steal Faye from you."

"HEY!" Brayden yelped. He tried not to blush. "Fine, I'll go with Chara."


"I honestly thought you wouldn't go with me," Chara told Brayden. They were staring at a snow-poff. A lot of snow-poffs actually. "You seem to enjoy being with Faye."

"Frisk said I had to make sure you didn't walk off on us and whatever." Brayden told them, folding his arms. He was blushing almost as much as Chara was. Thinking about Faye made him feel uncomfortable.

"Why would I ever do that?" Chara asked, laughing. They frowned and skipped past the snow-poffs.

"Are you and Frisk boys or girls?" Brayden asked them. "'Cause the whole time, we've been calling you 'they' and stuff. I thought those were for, like, groups."

"Frisk and myself don't have genders in this timeline," Chara told Brayden. "So we are definitely not male or female."

"Why?" Brayden asked. "I didn't know you couldn't have genders."

"We are the SOULS of the player," Chara answered. They sounded dramatic. "We represent the humans of the other world. We are not just two children. We are many. Hundreds of thousands. We are male. We are female. We are both and none. We are everything. We are LOVE. We are hate. We are the resets. We are the past. We are the future. We are… the player."

"What the heck does that all mean?" Brayden asked, scratching his head.

"Nevermind," Chara replied. They looked at a snow poff. "Surprisingly, it's a snow poff."

"You are weird." Brayden said, looking at Chara.

"And you aren't yelling for once," Chara replied. They smiled. "You should use the sound of silence more often, Brayden. It suits you." The kids approached a snow-poff on the path leading out of the area. In the snow poff was a little puppy.

"That's… so…" Brayden was trying not to make a kawaii face. "... cute!" The dog got about ten sizes bigger. It was wearing armour and all. "IT'S NOT CUTE ANYMORE!"

"You do not say!" Chara exclaimed. They stepped back, letting Brayden fight the dog alone.

"HEY!" Brayden looked at them. "WHERE YOU GOIN'?!"

"I cannot fight," Chara answered. They started laughing. "I'm sorry, I really can't. Just get the dog to come towards you and pet it. It's what Frisk and Faye would do if they were here."

"YOU WIMP!" Brayden yelled, gritting his teeth. Chara covered their face with their hair. Their eyes were hidden by a black shadow. Brayden faced the Greater Dog. His fists clenched. He sighed.

"C'mere, boy," Brayden said, waving his hands.

"Do not assume the dog's gender." Chara called from somewhere.

"SHUT UP WIMP!" Brayden yelled. The Greater Dog inched towards him. Brayden really didn't have anything to say. The dog waved a spear at him. It was blue, which meant Brayden couldn't move. Brayden groaned. He stayed still. A white spear approached him. This spear him hit in the chest. Brayden growled and covered his chest. Stupid spears. Why did they have to trick him?

Brayden patted the dog. It fell asleep in his lap. When suddenly it woke up! It was so excited. Chara was still watching, a frown on their face. A barking dog attacked Brayden. He did a surprisingly good job avoiding the barks. As weird as that sounds. Chara ran around and pulled Brayden out of the battle.

"Chara!" Brayden yelped.

"Enough of that," Chara grumbled. The dog whimpered as Chara dragged Brayden away. They let him go, just in front of a long bridge.

"You wimp." Brayden glared at Chara.

"Forgive me," Chara told him. "I could not stand it." Brayden punched their shoulder. Chara stared at him. Their nose crinkled. But they didn't look angry or resentful.

"Don't do that again, okay?!" Brayden told them.

"Oh, I will do it plenty more, don't you worry." Chara replied. "I will not fight any monster here. I cannot."

"Why not?!" Brayden asked accusingly.

"I just can't!" Chara answered. "I can't explain it, I just can't!" They took a deep breath. "Look, it's Faye and Frisk." Said two kids were walking over. They looked relatively happy.

"It's nice to see you two didn't kill each other!" Frisk said brightly. They put their hands on their hips. "Snowdin's not too far! Cool, right?"

"Cool as the ice." Faye grinned. Frisk laughed.

"Yes, nice to see you two didn't try to kill each other either." Chara grumbled.


"HUMANS!" Papyrus exclaimed. The humans were standing on the bridge, eyeing the skele-bros. "THIS IS YOUR FINAL AND MOST DANGEROUS CHALLENGE! BEHOLD! THE GAUNTLET OF DEADLY TERROR!" A bunch of deadly weapons (and a little white dog) surrounded the bridge.

"It seems Papyrus can actually pose a threat." Chara admitted, raising their brow. Faye was clinging onto Brayden. Frisk looked bored.

"WHEN I SAY THE WORD, IT WILL FULLY ACTIVATE!" Papyrus declared. "CANNONS WILL FIRE! SPIKES WILL SWING! BLADES WILL SLICE! EACH PART WILL SWING VIOLENTLY UP AND DOWN! ONLY THE TINIEST CHANCE OF VICTORY WILL REMAIN!" The kids stared at each other. "ARE YOU READY?! BECAUSE! I! AM! ABOUT! TO DO IT!"

But nothing happened.

"Hey, when's it starting?" Brayden asked.

"yeah, what's the holdup?" Sans asked.

"HOLDUP?! WHAT HOLDUP?!" Papyrus asked. "WHAT HOLDUP?! I'M… IM ABOUT TO ACTIVATE IT NOW!" Still, nothing happened. Brayden snorted. Chara looked just as bored as Frisk.

"Well, if it takes time, I understand…" Faye said quietly.

"that, uh, doesn't look very activated." Sans told Papyrus.

"WELL!" Papyrus exclaimed. "THIS CHALLENGE!" He frowned. "IT SEEMS… MAYBE… TOO EASY TO DEFEAT THE HUMANS WITH! YEAH! WE CAN'T USE THIS ONE. I AM A SKELETON WITH STANDARDS! MY PUZZLES ARE VERY FAIR! AND MY TRAPS ARE EXPERTLY COOKED! BUT THIS METHOD IS TOO DIRECT! NO CLASS AT ALL! AWAY IT GOES!" The weapons disappeared.

"The only time he actually poses a threat, and he immediately removes all danger," Chara commented. "Absolute classic. I have never met such a monster in my whole existence." Papyrus left after that. The kids walked across the bridge, finally able to access Snowdin.

"FINALLY!" Brayden yelled.

"Snowdin looks so pretty…" Faye admired, gazing at the small town ahead.

"I could not agree more," Chara said. They observed their hand. "Now let's hurry up and leave."


A/N: Hi everyone, so you may have read the original. You'll know there's a part with some suicide in it. I want to apologise about that as I feel it might offend some people :/ But I do understand feeling sucidal. I've been depressed most of my life and I've had some dark thoughts. I've never attempted suicide but I have committed self-harm before. A lot of my friends are also depressed, online and in real life.

I'm not really someone to turn to for support. I don't think I'm much good at really supporting anybody :/ I realised this recently and I don't feel great about it. However, there is a ton of support and people you can talk to if you're feeling depressed. I'm just here to try to make you smile, because I'm better at that than anything. If you are feeling this way, let me know and I'll write you a story or draw you a picture. It's the least I can do.

In the end, you don't have to be alone, even if you think you can do it yourself. Sometimes you do need help. Trust me, I know the feeling of being lonely extremely well. I know what it's like to feel like you're the only one. I do. I feel this way all the time. Even talking to other people who have Asperger's doesn't help. I'm different from them. So just try to help yourself. And if you can't? At least help others. This is all the advice I can give you.

Happy New Year everyone :)
