"Over the past 4 days there has been a number of deaths throughout the city. Yet the murderer is still unable to be found. Could it be the monsters that are causing these deaths? Police say to report anyone you see acting suspicious so these deaths can come to an end. They also mention to be on lookout around you just incase. Do not hesitate to act either, this situation is increasing in danger every minute. They could be around you right now and you don't even know it. Now heading back to Barbara for more news."
"Thank you Ruth, yes it is true. There seems to have been a few murders and it keeps increasing. It seems as though that the killer waits until you're alone before they strike. What do you think of what the murderers' main goal is is, Jake?
"Well Barbara, At the rate they are moving it seems to me like they want to destroy humanity, haha.. but i doubt that. Most people claim that it's those monsters who are causing this to happen. I bet that they are up there on the police's suspect list but no one wants to go near them incase it's true. Who knows what they are capable of, since according to legends they started a war years ago against humanity but were defeated. As a result they were sealed underground. It also states that they are capable of using magic so who knows what kind of magic or even how strong it is. I guess that hopefully one day we can all wish that someone would go confront them."
"Could it be that the cause of these deaths are happening because the monsters want revenge for being locked underground for so long? This is Barbara and Jake bringing you the latest news."
Turning away from the tv store window Frisk simply shrugged her shoulders. "Aw, such a shame that they aren't enjoying my surprise gifts. Oh well, people have their likes and dislikes." A police car that had the window rolled down was spotted up ahead, quickly Frisk had to blend in with others around her so nothing looked suspicious. A group of teenagers walked walked by and judging by their facial expressions were nervous except for one kid. Blending in by making herself looked nervous, Frisk walked by them then turned around shouting at the tops of her lungs
"HE'S THE MURDERER! STOP HIM BEFORE SOMEONE ELSE DIES!"
The group stopped walking, turning around to look at the child who just accused someone in their group being the murderer. Eyes followed to who Frisk's finger was pointing at as they started to back away from the boy that was being singled out. His eyes widened in a panicked state.
"N-no I'm not. Guys please You have to believe me! I wouldn't do this!"
Frisk sat down on the sidewalk waiting for everything to unfold into a disaster.
"R-Ryan I can't believe you were doing this...pl-please tell me that this is-isn't true?"
Ryan ran over to a girl who was wearing a black crop top with silver writing that had 'Judge me, if you dare' written on it, light blue skinny jeans, and tall black boots that went up to about mid-calf. Her green eyes were wide, teary, and full of fear.
"N-no...Babe, I-I don't know what this kid is talking about. Please don't think I'm a bad person. Lily, you know me better than this...why would you believe some random kid you don't even know?" He tried to put his arms around her waist to comfort her. Instead she shoved him away from her not wanting to hear any of it.
"Stay away from me! I don't know who to trust anymore. I don't want to die a-"
In sync two different sounding voices called out, "DON'T MOVE ONE MUSCLE! YOU'RE COMING WITH US FOR QUESTIONING!"
"Oh Shit! It's the cops! Guys come on you have to help me! Prove to them that I am not the murderer." Not one person moved.
"Fine, have it your way but I'm not letting this end without game of chase." He started sprinting away from everyone. The maroon colored hood of his sweatshirt was the last thing seen as he ran around the corner of a building.
One of the cops ran back to the car pulling out a radio. "We got a 10-80 of a suspect who might be the murderer. I repeat, we got a 10-80. Backup may be needed." The other cop started chasing after Ryan. After putting the radio back he also started running off in the same direction has Ryan and the second cop.
Frisk wanted to follow them to see how it would all end. Instead she was going to wait here since they would have to drag the boy back here anyway to the car.
"He's an idiot. That made him look even more suspicious. It's a good thing none of us helped him, am I right?"
"Bro, you're so right! Like seriously what if it was true? We would have became part of that case too since we were hanging around him."
"Haha...true. Part of me wanted to help him but like I said before I really can't trust anyone. Besides he was being a douchebag before this occurred anyway. So he deserves this."
"Yeah, Lily he was wasn't he? Trying to make you do this and that while just randomly yelling at you. I can't believe I didn't try to step in. I'm so sorry."
"Khy, it's alright. Relationship issues happen all the time. It's cool."
The group started to leave but Lily stopped in her tracks. Turning around she walked over to Frisk who was sitting there on the sidewalk playing with a few pebbles. Frisk looked up at the random figure who just approached her. Instinctively her one hand dropped the pebbles it was holding and curled her fingers around the handle of the knife that was tucked away in her back pocket. This girl was approaching her alone….should she dare to kill her near the cop car even though they are going to come back later?
"Hey kid, You don't even really know me but honestly I want to thank you for getting him off my back. I appreciate it a lot."
"Oh...um it's no problem I guess. Sorry that had to happen. Something about him didn't seem right in my eyes."
"Nah, it's cool. I was trying to find ways to get him off my back anyway. I gotta go catch up with my friends maybe I'll see you around sometime soon!" She started to run off towards the group until she stopped once again and turned around.
"Oh! Silly me, I almost forgot to tell you something." she walked back towards Frisk before leaning in towards her ear.
"I know what you did and who you are….Chara." Lily stood up walking away while leaving Frisk in confusion. It was a good thing Frisk didn't take action since they stopped to watch what was happening. She would have been screwed if one got away. Although there was no way this random person knew who she was and what she did…..so who exactly was she?
Something about that girl wasn't right. She didn't give off normal human vibes, but there was no way she could be a monster at the same time.
In a flash Ryan found his face making contact with the sidewalk as someone stepped on top of his back. His arms were jerked behind him too as cold, metal objects held his arms in place. He wasn't going to let himself go to jail, squirming underneath whoever was on top. It was no use, he was fighting against a cop. They were trained for resistance. Suddenly he was yanked upward on his feet being shoved forward to walk, a tight grip was on his arm from the cop and it started to hurt a bit.
"YOU GOT IT ALL WRONG! THE KID LIED! I'M INNOCENT! WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO PROVE IT!"
"Kid, Why don't you just shut up and keep walking. I can drag you instead with your face scraping against the concrete. Would you like that instead?"
"NO! I WOULD LIKE TO BE RELEASED THOUGH! I think the kid is the murderer that's why they accused me! They didn't want to get caught."
"I doubt that some kid who looked to be around 10 maybe age 9 would go around killing tons of people and get away with it. Besides you ran away from us making you look suspicious. Congrats dude, you brought this upon yourself."
"I didn't bring nothing upon myself."
"Uh, yeah you did. We wouldn't have to had chase you or go through any of this is you just stayed where you were before you took off. Now just shut up and keep walking."
Faint voices hit Frisk's ears and she snapped her head in the direction on the noise. They were coming back. Needing to hide she darted behind a trash can. Still listening to the voices as they got louder.
Finally they came from around the corner and she heard every word loud and clear.
"For the last time I'm telling you that the kid isn't a killer. Someone that young wouldn't know what to do with the weapon evidence. Honestly they probably would have just dropped it in shock in ran."
"You don't understand what I'm saying the kid is evil. Do you hear me the ki-" The door must have been closed muffling the voices.
'So I wouldn't even be considered a suspect because I'm young? This will be a piece of cake then." Frisk stood up and walked away. It was almost dusk so not much people were out. She started to wonder around the city streets. It all made sense to her. No one would suspect a little kid to be the knife-wielding murderer.
"So you guys actually came back to look for me? How irritable. I like my life now because I had no one to stop me from fulfilling my desires. Yet here you are again."
The bulky figure stood in the shadows hidden from view. "Frisk I don't want to fight, and you know how much I love fighting. If we did it would seriously cause major trouble for all of us monsters. We could possibly be locked up again and we wouldn't want that, would we?"
Frisk cocked her head to the side thinking about her decision. "Actually I do want that. I thought about the world and everything in it. This world has so many problems and issues that people don't try to resolve. Trust are broken when lies are told. People talk as gossip occurs. Respect is lost when you are judged." Frisk's eyes just stared into the darkness but her tone of voice started to change as she continued to talk. The soft tone being overlapped with a darker voice, both voices still could be heard.
"You can stab the body and it will heal, but injure the heart and the wound lasts forever." Frisk placed her hand right over her heart. "This….This is what they call….betrayal."
"Listen Punk, for years, we've dreamed of a happy ending...And now, that we have the sunlight within our reach I won't let you snatch it away from us or from anyone else!"
"They deserve all of this. I have had multiple injuries to my heart that cannot heal. The pain filled my heart so I turned it to anger. That is why my soul is dark. My anger consumes me, controlling my actions. Forgiving someone is just a sin because they just go and do the same thing over again." Her feet started to drag her towards the dark corner where the shadowed figure stood.
From the way the figure stood they were scared when Frisk kept inching towards them although they tried not to show it by holding their ground.
"Life isn't fair. Doesn't mean you need to bring it on everyone around you though. Even people you don't know you're just hurting out of spite. This isn't you. What I know is that you're a wimp with a big heart." They didn't even know that Frisk was behind them until she gave a slight chuckle.
"People change so I did too. This is me...This is the….New me." Frisk leaned closer towards the monster standing before her. Her breath was hot sending shivers down their spine. Her hand rested on the cool metal shoulders of the armor that the monster was wearing.
"I've been betrayed by so many people and even by monsters….especially by that damn comedian….that I reached my limit."
"So what you're saying is that you are now just a remorseless criminal. You wander through these streets, attacking anyone in your path. Self-defense? Please. You didn't kill them because you had to. You killed them because it was easy for you. Because it was fun for you." The sound of metal making contact with the ground echoed in the air as the helmet dropped from their hands as they balled them into fist, their teeth were clenched, while their whole body was shuddering from irritation.
"Do you think it was fun when people's family members...never come home? Is that fun?"
"I don't even know what fun feels like anymore. My emotion are enclosed by a chain and sealed with a lock. You finally caught on though, I see. You must be enraged so release your warrior spirit and fight me. I have been itching for a real fight, If I were you I wouldn't resist this offer, Undyne the Undying."
"I promised myself that you wouldn't want to hurt anyone else. Yet here you are, causing pain that you have inflicted on the fallen... Every hope, Every dream you have turned to dust... I will avenge them by making sure your life is put through the same amount of pain that you caused them!" Undyne picked up her helmet off the ground putting it on then walked out of the shadows onto the street.
It was dimly lit since the street lamp was flickering showing that it's about to give out any moment, the streets were silent as everyone went to sleep, and the moon shone brightly in the night sky while the twinkling stars accompany it. Overall, it was a really nice night out, too bad it was about to disrupted with a battle scene.
A blue spear materialized in her hand as she raised it above her head. Frisk just stood there with open arms waiting for the monster's best shot. "NGAHHH! Come on! Step forward and let's end this!" Undyne started charging towards Frisk ready to strike until her spear started flickering in her hand. Undyne started to furiously shake her spear all around before summoning spear after spear only to have them all disappear as fast as they were summoned. looking over at the child standing before her.
"NGAHHHHHHHH! HEY PUNK, WHAT'S GOING ON? I KNOW THAT YOU KNOW AT LEAST SOMETHING, SO DON'T TRY TO LIE TO ME!"
"Oh Undyne, how funny that I forgot to mention what happens when you monsters are away from Mt. Ebott. Hmmm….now how should I expl-GACK!"
Two metal hands wrapped around her throat in an instant. "EXPLAIN NOW OR ELSE I'LL JUST CHOKE YOU TO DEATH. YOU KNOW HOW MUCH I LOVE MY SPEARS PUNK, SO I WANT AN EXPLANATION NOW!"
"P-put m-me do-down so I ca-can exp-explain with-without chok-choking." The grip was released as her face made contact with the cement for like the tenth time already. Frisk sat up gasping for air.
"START EXPLAINING! I AM AN IMPATIENT MONSTER! LET'S GO!"
"Alright...alright. Sheesh. So I learned that your source of magic comes from Mt. Ebott. Yes, it comes from your souls too, but since you guys have been trapped for so long underground it seems that your souls have become dependent upon the mountain. It turns out that because of Flowey the mountain was able to absorb magic each time he went underground since flowers can't randomly disappear under the earth. Well the mountain kept giving off magic as time went on and that's why some of you were extremely powerful underground. Without it your souls aren't as strong and so is-"
"ARE YOU CALLING ME WEAK? DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE STANDING BEFORE? I CAN KICK YOUR LITTLE BUTT MANY TIMES! GO AHEAD KEEP CALLING ME WEAK, PUNK! SEE WHAT HAPPENS THEN."
"Oh my god Undyne, do you want a freakin explanation or not? As I was saying, because you are away from the mountain you have little magic inside of you. Anyone who leaves the mountain boundaries is basically on their own for survival. If you die there's no coming back and that's exactly what I want! Night-night, Undyne…..forever!"
I hope you guys enjoyed this chapter and I really do hope it was worth the wait. I'm so excited to be writing the next one though because a new character is introduced (or is she new?). Yes I really did want to add in a battle scene between Frisk and Undyne here but honestly I decided that it could wait and leave on more of a cliffhanger type thingy idk. Lol
