Hey guys! Big milestone, eh? The big 10! I didn't think I'd make it to 10, honestly. I figured that I was gonna write a short story, and end quickly, or that I was gonna get negative comments so I'd just stop it. But no! I've gotten so many nice comments and followers cause of this fic! You people are all so amazing. Anywho, basically, this note is a big thank you. Love you guys sooooo much! ~p.s. One more thing! I do realize LOVE stands for Level of Violence in Undertale, but I have my own acronym for it. Lots of Various Emotions. Cheesy, yeah, but isn't that what love is? Anywho, on to the chapter...

It didn't take long for the girls to see the giant building at the entrance of the Hotland. It was incredibly tall, and pale white, with giant circular red windows on either side of it. Neither of them had to guess what it was, seeing the giant red letters that spelled out: LAB on the front.

Chara could faintly remember this place. She didn't spend much time here on previous runs, but she did remember meeting a robot, though she couldn't place whom. Recently, she noticed, she has had trouble remembering older timelines, as if Frisk's RESET, wiped her memory as well. Chara stopped moving before they could walk into the Lab.

"Chara? You okay?" Frisk turned around and looked at Chara.

She let go of Frisk's hands. "Frisk, do you remember everything that happens after you RESET?"

Frisk was surprised, she didn't know exactly how to respond. Chara had never brought this up before, why now? "Um, sometimes my memory is a little foggy, but mostly, yes."

"So why can I barely remember my past? I get bits and pieces of things." Chara wasn't mad because of this, but she was genuinely confused.

"Well, maybe you are like me, but you lose a little more, because you aren't the one RESETing? I have no clue, honestly." Frisk responded.

Chara thought about it. It made sense, but she was hoping for a clearer answer. "Alright, I was just wondering Frisk." She grabbed her hand again. "Let's get moving then!" She said, walking forward.

The girls entered the Lab and noticed the lights were turned off.

"Should we come back later?" Chara whispered.

"No, we can keep moving." They walked a small ways, only to see a giant computer with... them on the screen.

"They have cameras in here?" Chara looked around, but didn't see anything. It was still dark. She observed herself. She hadn't looked in a mirror (Or in this case a giant screen) in a long time. Her hair was slightly frizzy, her shirt was dirty and torn, and her face was slightly dirty as well. She hadn't realized she looked like that, and she was embarrassed of herself.

Frisk looked at herself, and noticed she was dirty, and gross. She hadn't realized it before, and wondered why Chara never commented on it. She blushed.

"Why the sudden blush, Frisk?" Chara asked.

"Why didn't you tell me I looked so gross.."

"Because you don't!" Chara grinned. "In fact, I think you look extremely beautiful."

Frisk blushed harder and smiled. "Oh, don't lie, I'm all gross."

Chara grabbed her and tipped her over suddenly taking Frisk by surprise. She looked Frisk dead in the eye, "I would never lie about that." In as serious of a tone as she could muster. Chara started in grin, and eventually started laughing, Frisk joined in.

Chara picked themself and Frisk back up. "Anyways Frisk, do you happen to know where the light switch is?" She looked around again, but saw nothing.

Before Frisk could speak, they heard the sound of a door opening, and the lights flicked on. They saw a yellow, reptilian like monster in a lab coat. Frisk knew exactly who it was, but didn't want to say anything to avoid Alphys getting freaked out.

She looked at them and became wide-eyed. "Oh! My god! I didn't expect you two so soon!" She started to fidget in place. "I haven't showered, I'm barely dressed, its dirty, and.." She stared at the girls. Realizing she hadn't introduced herself. "H-h-hiya! I'm Dr. Alphys. I'm Asgore's Royal Scientist!" She looked nervous. "B-b-but, I'm not one of the 'bad guys'!" she said quickly. "Actually, since you two stepped out of the RUINS, I've been, 'observing' your journey through my console. Your fights, your friendships, everything!"

Chara stared at her and became angry. "Wait, you've been watching us?!" She yelled.

"U-um! Yeah! Originally, I was going to stop you, but watching someone on a screen really makes you root for them, you know? Using my knowledge, I can easily guide you through Hotland!" Alphys said, getting even more nervous after seeing Chara's reaction.

Chara wasn't focused on what she said. She was mad this stranger was watching her and Frisk. That means she saw everything. Every kiss, every tear, every night... everything. She looked over at Frisk, who was smiling at Alphys. Chara wondered why Frisk could be so calm in the presence of this... stalker.

Alphys kept blabbering about something, but Chara wasn't listening.

"I know a way straight to Asgore's castle!" she continued.

Chara had enough. "I don't want any help from you!" She blurted out. Frisk looked at her, concerned. She didn't know what was wrong with Chara. "I-I'm sorry! Is something wrong?" Alphys asked.

Chara stared at her in disbelief, and then at Frisk. "Frisk! Do you not see what's wrong here! Shes been watching us! Seeing everything Frisk! That doesn't concern you at all?" Chara was still extremely angry.

Frisk stared at Chara, and was intimidated by the way she looked. She was genuinely angry with Alphys, and her face was getting red with anger.

"Oh! I- I'm sorry! But don't worry, I actually only saw your encounters with other monsters, and Papyrus and Undyne. Not much else!" She said quickly, getting nervous and blushing.

Chara calmed down slightly, but not much. "What do you mean, 'not much else'?" She asked

"Um well. I uh, saw you two b-building a snowman and battling Papyrus and Undyne, and the Temmie Village.." She said.

"Did you see us do anything else?" She was really wanting to know if she saw their kissing.

"M-maybe, just.. one or two k-kisses. But! You two are cute together!" Alphys, Chara, and Frisk all blushed.

"Thank you Alphys." Frisk said nicely.

"That doesn't excuse you watching us!" Chara said.

"L-look, I'm s-sorry! I promise I won't do it anymore, but it's my job to look out for humans, and w-well.. you two were different. I had to keep watching you." She looked sad. "I'm truly s-sorry."

Chara calmed down. She looked at Frisk and took a deep breath. "It's fine, Alphys, as long as you please don't do that anymore. I prefer privacy." She said.

Frisk smiled. She was glad Chara had calmed down and treated Alphys nicer. She was half worried Chara would snap on Alphys, especially after what just happened with Undyne.

"I'm sorry too, Alphys. Please, continue on what you were saying." Chara said. She was still bothered by all of the watching, but let it go, for Frisk.

"O-oh! Yeah! Anyways, but there might be a problem. See, long ago, I built a human fighting robot, Mettaton. Originally, I had built him to be an entertainment robot, uh, you know, like a robotic TV star or something. Recently, I decided to make him more useful by adding... anti.. anti-human features. Of c-course, when I saw the two of you coming, I immediately thought, 'I have to get rid of those features!'" She said, getting a little nervous. "And I uh, may have made a mistake in doing so. So now h-he's a uh, unstoppable killing machine with a thirst for human blood.." She looked down. "So, um, hopefully we won't run into him!" She looked around.

Chara remembered that name. Mettaton. That was the robot she remembered. She couldn't get an exact image of him in her head, but she remembered something about it being... photogenic?

*TWAANG*

They had heard a metallic sound coming from the wall. Like someone was clanging metal together.

*TWAANG*

"D-did you hear something?" Alphys said, not seeming worried.

Frisk looked at the wall, not worried either, while Chara, on the other hand, was getting ready for something big. She tensed up, and put her arm over Frisk, like during the FIGHT with Undyne. Frisk smiled knowing Chara was getting ready to protect her.

*TWAANG TWANNG TWANNG TWANNG TWANNG*

The sound got louder and slightly faster.

"Oh no."

Something bust through the wall, screaming, "OHHH YES!" In a deep manly robotic voice.
It was silent for a moment, as the dust settled. "Welcome, beauties.." He said.
Chara and Frisk got a good look at the giant rectangle with a microphone in his hands.

"Mettaton.." Chara whispered.

"To today's game show!" He yelled. A sign that said GAME SHOW in neon colors came from the ceiling, along with confetti, and streamers, and two neon disco balls "Oh boy! I can already tell it's going to be a great show!" He said. "Everybody give a big hand to our wonderful contestants!" He started to clap loudly, and you could hear it echo throughout the Lab. "Never played before beauties?" He raised his hand in the air, "No problem! It's simple!" He held up a one with his hand. "There is only one rule! Answer correctly..." He threw the microphone. "...or you DIE!"

A battle sequence started. (Sorry darling, but this time, its a QUIZ SHOW!)
*Applause*

Mettaton appeared in front of the two, his microphone was back. Chara looked around, and saw they weren't in a normal battle, there were stage lights, cameras, and an answer board with A, B, C, and D options. No question was on it quite yet.

They selected MERCY.

"Let's start with an easy one!" He pulled over to the side, and the answer board flashed.

WHAT'S THE PRIZE FOR ANSWERING CORRECTLY?
A: Money
B: Mercy
C: New Car
D: More Questions

Chara stared dumbfounded, she couldn't believe what she was seeing. Frisk, on the other hand, looked excited and happy. Seeing Frisk made Chara smile.

Alphys waved the attention of Chara and Frisk and made a D symbol with her hands. Chara was confused, but Frisk selected D, and Mettaton clapped his hands.

"That's right! Sounds like you get it!" He said excitedly.

Frisk looked and Chara and smiled big. Chara understood what Alphys was doing now, she was giving them the answer!

"Here's your terrific prize!"

WHAT'S THE KINGS FULL NAME?
A: Lord Fluffybuns
B: Fuzzy Pushover
C: Asgore Dreemurr
D: Dr. Friendship

Chara didn't need help on this one, she knew her dad's name. She selected C, quickly.

"Correct! What a terrific answer!" Mettaton yelled. "Enough about you. Lets talk about me!"

WHAT ARE ROBOTS MADE OF?
A: Hopes & Dreams
B: Metal & Magic
C: Snips & Snails
D: Sugar & Spice

Frisk saw the question and the answer choices and laughed, clicking B, as that was the only one that made sense. Chara found answer choice D the funniest.

"Too easy for you huh?" Mettaton yelled. "Well, here's another easy one for you two!"

TWO TRAINS, TRAIN A AND TRAIN B, SIMULTANEOUSLY DEPART STATION A AND STATION B. STATION A AND STATION B ARE 252.5 MILES APART FROM EACH OTHER. TRAIN A IS MOVING AT 124.7 MPH TOWARDS STATION B, AND TRAIN B IS MOVING AT 253.5 MPH TOWARDS STATION A. IF BOTH TRAINS DEPARTED AT 10:00 A.M. AND IT IS NOW 10:08, HOW MUCH LONGER UNTIL BOTH TRAINS PASS EACH OTHER?
A: 31.054 Minutes
B: 16.232 Minutes
C: 32.049 Minutes
D: 32.058 Minutes

Chara didn't even know how to respond. Mettaton had read the question so fast, she only heard train. Frisk looked just as confused and stared at Alphys. She looked at the problem for two seconds and signed D with her hands. Frisk pressed D.

"Wonderful! I'm astounded folks!" Mettaton yelled. "But don't 'count' on your victory!"

HOW MANY FLIES ARE IN THIS JAR? *Mettaton holds up small jar full of flies*
A: 54
B: 53
C: 55
D: 52

Chara thought this was getting ridiculous at this point. What was his goal? To ask as many unfair question as possible? She thought about that. "Yeah, I guess so." She said to herself.

Alphys signed A with her hands. Chara selected A.

"Correct! You're so lucky today! Now, let's play a memory game!"

WHICH MONSTER IS THIS? *The answer board showed a close up of a froggit's face*
A: Froggit
B: Whimsun
C: Moldsmal
D: Mettaton

Chara laughed. "Easy!" She said and selected A. She was zapped by Mettaton's laser. It sent a shock throughout her body and brought her health to 15/20.

"Chara!" Frisk yelled.

The answer board zoomed out to show a picture of Mettaton wearing a Froggit T-shirt.

"Oh! Sorry darling, that's incorrect!" He laughed.

Chara was shocked, but she stayed strong and was ready for the next question. She was mad at Mettaton, but she knew he rules of the game.

WOULD YOU SMOOCH A GHOST?
 A: Heck yeah
B: Heck yeah
C: Heck yeah
D: Heck yeah

Frisk winked and selected C. Chara and Alphys looked at each other in confusion.

"Great answer, I love it!" Mettaton yelled. "Time to break out the big guns!"

IN THE DATING SIMULATOR "MEW MEW KISSY CUITE" WHAT IS MEW MEW'S FAVORITE FOOD?

The answer choices didn't have time to appear before Alphys got up screaming, "OH! OH! I KNOW THIS ONE! ITS SNAIL ICE CREAM!" She started going on a long speech about the meaning of friendship found in the game and love.

Mettaton stared at Alphys. "Alphys, Alphys, Alphys. You aren't helping our contestant, are you? OOOH! You should've told me! I'll ask a question, you'll be SURE to know the answer to!"

WHO DOES DR. ALPHYS HAVE A CRUSH ON?
A: Undyne
B: Asgore
C: Either Human
D: Don't Know

Frisk and Chara looked at Alphys. She was extremely red and her hands were covering her face. Chara took a random guess and selected A.

"CORRECT!" Mettaton yelled. He went on and on about Alphys having a big crush on Undyne and all the things she says about her, Alphys was a nervous wreck.

Mettaton then continued."Well! With Dr. Alphys helping you, the show has no dramatic tension! We can't go on like this! But. BUT! This was just the pilot episode! Next up, more drama! More romance! More bloodshed! Until next time darlings!" Mettaton literally rocketed out of the Lab.

Alphys looked at the two. "Well. That was certainly something."

Chara looked at Frisk and giggled. "Frisk, that was so much fun! But... it was so confusing." Chara said.

Frisk laughed. "Yeah, it was awesome!" She grabbed Chara's hand.

"Lets go! We've got a lot more ahead."

Chara smiled, "Alright Frisk." Before they could leave, Alphys upgraded their phones and signed them up for a social media site, and sent them off.

*The fun you two had in Mettaton's game show fills you with DETERMINATION*

Hey Guys! Long chapter, but I did literally just fill in the Game Show. I decided not to make it completely original, for the plain and simple fact that I didn't feel like coming up with questions, so sorry if the chapter is boring because of it! Not a very special milestone chapter.. huh? Anywho, hope you enjoyed! LOVE YOU GUYS!
