A/N: So, life update, my depression was getting worse but I'm getting a bit of treatment now. Doesn't mean it will help though. :/ At the moment I kind of feel better about all of this? I still like writing and I do love Grouptale quite a lot. :P
I figured I may as well upload this chapter, especially since there's a great scene at the end. :) L8ter sk8ters!
Chara really wanted this Mettaton nonsense to end. Unfortunately, it didn't.
The kids were pulled into some pointless news report that was of course run by that annoying robot. He was wearing a fancy tuxedo, sitting at a desk. The kids were standing behind a news-style screen. Chara groaned. Alphys seemed annoyed too. That was one rare time Chara could sympathise with the lizard.
"OHHH YESS!" Mettaton exclaimed. "GOOD EVENING, BEAUTIES AND GENTLEBEAUTIES! THIS IS METTATON, REPORTING LIVE FROM MTT NEWS!"
"And we would like to leave now." Chara grumbled, making a face. Frisk smacked their arm.
"AN INTERESTING SITUATION HAS ARISEN IN EASTERN HOTLAND!" the robot continued. "FORTUNATELY, OUR CORRESPONDENTS ARE OUT THERE NOW, REPORTING LIVE!"
"You won't be 'live' for much longer." Chara growled. Their face was hidden by Sans' jacket. They hated being on TV. It made them feel so… self-conscious. They told Frisk, "You love this public speaking nonsense, do you not, Frisk? Tell the entire Underground we are not here for games, we are SAVING Asriel."
"Why can't you do it?" Brayden asked Chara, staring at them.
"It is none of your business." Chara growled, feeling even more self-concious. They bonked Frisk's arm. "Speak, imbecile!"
"Call me that and you'll be the one speaking," Frisk grumbled, folding their arms with a dark look on their face. They were about to say something, but Mettaton's rambling interrupted them. Chara glared at Frisk, signalling them to speak anyway. They didn't.
"Ooh, it's a puppy…" Faye said, eyeing a small white dog. Brayden was looking at it, trying not to make a kawaii face. Melody stepped between Frisk and Chara, giving the both of them the stink-eye. Chara attempted to push Frisk. Cody intervened, blocking Chara from hurting Frisk. Percy stood there and took notes.
"ATTENTION, VIEWERS!" Mettaton spoke above them all. "OUR CORRESPONDENTS HAVE FOUND… A DOG! (CUE AUDIENCE AWWS)"
Percy sneezed into his elbow. He wiped his nose. "Death."
Definitely an audience 'aww'.
"THAT'S RIGHT, FOLKS!" Mettaton exclaimed. "IT'S THE FEEL-GOOD STORY OF THE YEAR! LOOK AT ITS LITTLE EARS, TINY PAWS, FLUFFY TAIL…"
"It is the stupidest dog I have ever seen." Chara grumbled.
"And I prefer cats." Melody commented, folding her arms.
"WHAT?!" Brayden exclaimed, eyeing her. "HOW SO?!"
"Dogs are messy, just like you." Melody replied, cocking an eyebrow. [A/N: So many people are roasting Brayden good gravy...]
"WAIT A SECOND," Mettaton spoke up. "THAT'S NOT A TAIL! THAT'S… A FUSE!" The dog's tail lit up. Brayden gasped and clung onto Faye. He blushed a few seconds afterwards and let go. "THAT'S RIGHT… THAT DOG… IS A BOMB!"
"Good, it means I can explode myself." Chara muttered. Frisk smacked the back of their head.
"YOU HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN THE REST OF THE ROOM YET!" Mettaton exclaimed. The screen was destroyed, revealing a bunch of other random items. "IT SEEMS EVERYTHING IN THIS AREA IS ACTUALLY A BOMB!"
"Exploding myself will not be hard then." Chara commented. Frisk smacked the back of their head again. Mettaton continued explaining the bombs. The kids had to defuse all of the bombs, otherwise the big pink bomb would explode. Chara didn't see that as a problem. Frisk smacked their head for a third time. Thankfully, Alphys had the kids covered. Their phones were installed with a bomb-defusing program, which is a totally normal program for phones.
"Okay!" Frisk said cheerfully, facing the others. "Faye, go down and left. Brayden, you catch that flying glass of water. Melody, down and right. Perce, Cody, you guys head up to the top. Chara, you come with me."
They waved their arm in their air. "All for one and one for all! Let's go Team Save Asriel!" They grabbed Chara's arm and ran off.
"I'm glad I made them leader," Melody said, smiling. "They have some great quotes!"
"The Three Musketeers," Percy recognized. "Yes, they do."
Brayden ran around, trying to catch a flying glass of water. He had never hated a glass of water as much as he did today. It ended up flying into his face. Brayden wanted to smash that stupid glass of water. But he knew he had to focus. He opened his phone and focused on that glass of water, which was flying with agility around his face. With some effort, he managed to defuse it. He fist-pumped the air, cheering about his victory.
Faye walked up to an edgy-looking game-bomb, holding out her phone. The bomb was very hard to defuse, she found. But somehow, she managed it. Meanwhile, Melody was defusing a script bomb on an escalator. She was getting very frustrated about it, since she kept missing the bomb. She took a deep breath. She needed to focus on that awful script. Finally, she managed to catch it and defuse it. She cheered in glee.
Cody caught the bouncing basketball bomb (damn that alliteration). It kept bouncing around as he tried to defuse it. He wiped his brow. It was so hot here. But somehow, he managed to defuse it. Percy, meanwhile, was trying to defuse the present bomb. It was really annoying him. It was going too fast for him to comprehend. In the end, Cody managed to defuse it for him. Percy was thankful for that.
"Go on, Chara," Frisk nudged Chara's arm. "Pet it."
"No." Chara refused, turning away. Frisk grabbed Chara's arm. Chara glared at Frisk with all the hate they had ever felt. "Let go or I will throw you off the edge of this platform."
"I'll throw you off the edge of this platform, Chara," Frisk replied darkly, their eyes not visible. "Don't underestimate me."
Chara scanned Frisk for a moment. Genocide memories played through their head. Their arms started shaking.
"You win." Chara replied, looking away. They kneeled down and patted the dog. It was fluffy, they had to admit. Even though it snored very loudly. Frisk went back to their cheerful self.
"See? That wasn't so bad!" they said brightly.
"Right, of course." Chara replied with no emotion. The kids had defused all the bombs, but the whole thing was a troll. The big pink bomb was going to explode anyway. Cody felt emotional. Unlike Chara, he didn't want to explode. And he didn't want to loose his new friends either. But then suddenly the bomb wasn't going off, because Alphys has sick hacking skills.
"While you were monologuing, Mettaton… I… I…!" Alphys said, her voice echoing from the phone. "I… I f… I fix… um… I ch-change…"
"You deactivated the bomb with your hacking skills." Frisk finished.
"Yeah!" Alphys said, relieved. "That's what I did!"
Mettaton ranted about how he had lost again, then he left. The kids were rather relieved.
"Great job, guys!" Frisk cheered, jumping for joy. "Team Save Asriel forever!" They looked at their phone. "Oh! Did you want to say something, Alphys?"
"Uh…" Alphys sounded nervous. "Well… just a little…" She paused. "I know I was kind of weird at first… but I really think I'm getting more… uh, more…"
"Confident?" Frisk suggested.
"Yeah!" Alphys agreed. "(You really know everything, don't you?)"
"Yep!" Frisk agreed brightly. Alphys blushed on the other side of the phone. The others stared at Frisk.
Frisk gestured with their hand, grinning at the phone. "Go on, Alph."
"Well, I feel… m-more confident about guiding you all…" Alphys continued. "S-so don't worry about that b-big d-dumb robot… I-I'll protect you from him!"
"Aww!" Cody blushed. "I'd give you a hug if you were here!"
Chara rolled their eyes.
"A-and if it really came down to it, we could just t-turn…" Alphys hesitated. "Um, nevermind. Later!" She hung up.
"You're so nice, Cody," Melody said, eyeing Cody. She frowned. "I wish Chara could be more like you."
"Oh bother off." Chara growled, grumpily walking away. Their head was down. Cody felt bad for them again.
"Ah, don't mind 'em!" Frisk cheered. "We're still Team Save Asriel!"
"Wait, who's Asriel again?" Brayden asked, looking confused. Chara could be heard groaning from a mile away.
Chara was eyeing the CORE, thinking about their fri- accomplices. They felt a tug on their heart strings. When the time to save Asriel did come, would they be able to bring the others? Would someone have to die?
No, stop, Chara commanded themself. Frisk said no one had to die in this timeline. Asriel can be saved without sacrifice. We will get a happy ending!
Chara observed themself again. Their breathing picked up. They only had so much time to SAVE Asriel…
Chara grimaced. If it really came down to it, maybe someone would have to die after all.
"Chara?" Cody approached Chara. They jumped and turned around. Why did people have to sneak up on them?
"What do you want?" they asked angrily.
"Sorry, Chara," Cody apologized. "I just wanted to know if you were okay."
"Considerate, but the gesture is unneeded." Chara responded, turning away. They tried not to cry. Cody reminded them of Asriel far too much. They didn't want this. The other kids came over. Frisk was in the lead, giving Chara the stink-eye. Chara ignored it.
"Okay," Frisk spoke up, grinning at their friends. "This is the plan! So, Alph called, lovely monster as you guys know, she told us not to worry. And we shouldn't!" They frowned. "Mostly."
They smiled again. "Ahead we're gonna be fighting a spider lady called Muffet! But before you freak out, don't worry, because I came prepared!" They held out seven donuts. "Easy-peasey! This'll get us past her without breaking a sweat!"
"Frisk…" Chara spoke up. "When you bought those donuts back in… the RUINS… there were only two of us, were there not? And, quite frankly, neither of us were expecting to meet five other children on this journey. So how did you-"
"Uh, anyway!" Frisk interrupted brightly, their body twitching. Chara still looked suspicious. Percy curiously took some notes. "Before all that, there's another puzzle like the one we saw before, the one with the rooms to the north and south and stuff. That won't be hard. And after we beat Muffet, there's another Mettaton show! My personal favourite." They clapped. Chara rolled their eyes.
"Do we get to fight some people on that show!?" Brayden asked, looking eager.
"Wellllll," Frisk tilted their head from side to side. "Remember that puzzle back in Snowdin that broke? The one with all the colourful tiles? It's got to do with that."
Brayden looked disappointed.
"Snowdin…" Percy looked thoughtful. "I remember going through there. I am still confuzzled over how snow is underground."
"Aboustelllyyyy!" Frisk said brightly, almost dancing around. "Any-wa-hey! After that, there's a hotel we can stay at. Then the CORE, which will be…" They made a face. "A little tricky to pass through. But then! We get to actually FIGHT Mettaton! Cool, right?"
"YEAH!" Brayden cheered, fist-pumping the air.
"Uh, no." Melody grumbled, folding her arms.
"Do we have to fight?" Cody asked anxiously.
"Yep!" Frisk chirped. "B-b-b-but! We don't have to actually hurt anyone. After we finish fighting Mettaton, we take an elevator to the King's castle."
They paused. "And that's where we'll save Asriel."
The kids passed Muffet's insanely expensive bakery. They got their first glance of the spider monster, and Percy had to admit she wasn't exactly beautiful. And she was definitely some kind of scammer. Thank goodness he and his friends avoided her.
Like Frisk said, there were puzzles to solve. Brayden still didn't like puzzles. He found them so painfully mundane. Luckily Frisk knew exactly what to do. Brayden was still stunned by how much they knew about everything. He didn't quite understand Frisk and Chara being from different timelines, so he just assumed they were really smart kids. He hung around Faye, who hadn't spoken for a while. Brayden still liked being around her for some reason. It made him... feel good...?
She was following Percy, who was having a geeky conversation with Alphys over the phone about some silly show called 'Mew Mew Kissy Cutie'.
"Hey, Faye," Brayden said, grinning at Faye. "Aren't you excited to go home?!"
"I thought we were saving Asriel…" Faye replied.
"WELL WE'RE GOING HOME AS WELL!" Brayden cheered, putting his arm around her shoulders. Faye blushed. "When we get home, you've gotta come over to my place. I can show you my house!"
"I don't know if my aunt would like that," Faye replied, making a face.
"Ehh she would," Brayden grinned. He flexed. "EVERYONE LIKES ME!"
"No they don't." Melody told him, walking over. "I'm pretty sure some people find you very annoying."
"People find you annoying, Melody!" Brayden growled in response.
"MELODY!" Frisk growled, storming out of the puzzle room. They and Percy looked very disappointed. "You ruined the Fayeden moment!"
"Fayeden…?" Melody asked. "What on Earth is…" She realized, and almost smirked. "Oh."
"What?!" Brayden asked. He made a face. "Fayeden?! That's NOT how you say my name!"
"It's how you say your ship name." Percy said, almost smirking.
"What the heck is a ship name?" Brayden asked, confused. The other kids eyed each other. Faye was blushing quite a lot.
"Are you idiots finished the puzzle yet?" Chara aggressively asked the others, their arms folded. They had come over with Cody. "Because in case you didn't know, we have to get a move on."
"Do you ship Fayeden, Chara?" Frisk asked Chara.
"What on Earth is 'Fayeden'?" Chara asked. They made a face. "Wait, do not tell me. I do not care." They turned away. Frisk sighed. But they found they weren't surprised. Chara would never be happy. [A/N: Just like me… uh bye-]
The kids approached a creepy-looking purple building covered in spider webs. Percy was trembling.
"The cobwebs are blocking my reception," he said. He looked up, his voice empty of any emotion. "How will I cope without wifi?"
"Thank goodness," Chara sounded relieved. "I do not have to read anymore of your stupid anime-related status updates."
"Chara!" Frisk grumbled.
"Achoo!" Brayden sneezed, fanning away a spider web.
"Bless you," Melody said, eyeing him. She crossed her arms. "And sneeze into your elbow next time!"
"ACK!" Brayden stomped the ground. "I HATE SPIDERS! THEY MAKE MY NOSE ITCHY!" He sneezed again, but not into his elbow.
"Your elbow, Brayden!" Melody groaned.
"I think spiders are cute…" Faye commented. She approached the door, feeling a little anxious. Frisk appeared behind her, patting her shoulder.
"Well you're lucky, cutie," they replied, winking. "'Cause we're gonna be meeting a lot of spiders!"
The kids finally started walking through the strange webbed building. Spiders whispered messages above them, quite obviously freaking them out. Chara clung onto Frisk.
"I heard that they hate spiders…" a voice whispered.
"But I don't…" Faye sighed.
"I find them a little creepy but I don't hate them, I promise!" Cody whimpered. Brayden kept sneezing every ten seconds. He seemed to really be annoying Melody. She covered his mouth with her hand. He glared at her. Percy, meanwhile, was taking notes. He didn't like this place too much. He hoped learning about it would make him like it… a little more.
The kids walked through a pile of sticky webs. The webs trapped them, making them unable to move from their positions. Chara made a face. They did not want to be stuck. They had a best friend to save.
"You think your tastes are too refined for our pastries, don't you, dearies?" Muffet herself greeted the children, hanging down from the ceiling.
"I DON'T EAT SPIDERS!" Brayden yelled. "AND ALSO YOU MAKE YOUR STUFF WAY TOO, LIKE, EXPENSIVE!"
"I'll say it now," Cody took a deep breath. "I think my pastries are better than yours!"
"Oh really, deary?" Muffet asked, eyeing him. "What makes you say that?"
"Because I'm not…" Cody paused. He remembered the word. For once, he felt he could speak up. For the sake of his friends. "Because I'm not a… I'm not a freaking CANNIBAL!"
"Harsh," Chara made a face. They smiled. "Act like that more often, Cody."
"OH CODY!" Brayden yelled, wiping his nose. "Achoo! YOU BAKE HER LIKE BREAD MAN!"
"That's a bit OOC, Cody." Percy commented, looking up from his notes.
Melody and Frisk were staring at each other. Faye wore a pair of sunglasses.
"Yeah!" Cody replied. "T-that's right!" He cleared his throat. "They're bett-"
"Wait, hold on," Frisk spoke up, holding up a hand. They pulled Cody back, then looked at Muffet with a grin. "He's joking, Muffet. He actually LOVES your pastries! WE ALL DO, DON'T WE, GUYS?" They gave the others a creepy, forced smile. They turned back to Muffet. "AND BECAUSE OF THAT, WE ACTUALLY BOUGHT SOME OF YOUR PASTRIES IN THE RUINS!" They held up the seven spider donuts. Muffet was about to say something, but Frisk continued.
"OH?" they asked spitefully. "DO YOU THINK I'M STEALING? NOPE! THE SPIDERS FROM THE RUINS'VE GOT A TELEGRAM TO SHOW YOU PROOF THAT WE DID INDEED BUY THEM WITH GOLD! WHERE ARE THOSE SPIDERS ANYWAY?" They looked around hastily. "WHERE ARE THEY?"
"Calm down, Frisk," Melody said, pulling Frisk down. They took a deep breath, becoming far less tense. Muffet, with her eight eyes, was giving Frisk a strange glance. Suddenly, a spider scurried along the ground, holding out a piece of paper. Muffet picked it up and read it.
"It is a telegram from the spiders in the RUINS," she said, surprised. Frisk smirked. "They're saying that they saw you, and… you helped donate to their cause! Oh my, this has all been a big misunderstanding~ I thought that you were someone who hated spiders~"
"NOPE!" Frisk spat. "NOT US!" They took a deep breath, calming themself down again.
"The person who asked for those SOULs…" Muffet looked thoughtful. "They must have meant different humans in striped shirts."
"Wait, what?!" Brayden asked, eyeing Frisk. "Person who asked for our SOULS?!"
Frisk made a face. They looked away.
"Sorry for all the trouble~" Muffet giggled. "Ahuhuhu~"
"Sorry for yelling at you…" Cody apologized, bowing his head. "I just felt I had to say something…"
"I'm sorry too." Frisk mumbled, glaring at their hands. "Let's leave, guys."

...
The kids passed a poster about some show. They came to a brick tower, on a stage that looked like it was from a TV show.
"The heck is this?!" Brayden asked, looking around. Frisk was smirking.
"OH, THOSE HUMANS…" Mettaton sighed, peeping out from the top of the castle. "COULD IT BE…? MY ONE TRUE LOVE… S?" He came out. He was wearing a blue dress.
"Excuse me." Melody said with a lot of sass, making a face.
"Damn that's hot." Frisk mumbled. This time, Chara hit them behind the head. Mettaton came down the stairs, holding up his dress. Everyone was sort of staring at him in awe.
"Oh my loves," he sung in a robotic voice. "Please run away."
"(You are not joking)." Chara grumbled.
"Monster King," Mettaton continued singing. "Forbids your stay…"
"Can we be excused?" Chara asked, folding their arms.
"Why is he wearing a dress?!" Brayden asked, looking confused. "What is GOING ON!?"
"My notebook is already full of questions." Percy mumbled, looking disturbed. Only Frisk was enjoying themself. They kept winking sensually at Mettaton.
"Humans must… live far apart..." Mettaton continued. "Even if… it breaks my heart…" He turned around dramatically and booped Faye's nose. She blushed. "They'll put you all… in the dungeon… it'll suck… and then you'll die a lot…"
"Good." Chara grumbled.
"Really sad," Mettaton sung. Rose petals came from the ceiling, getting caught in Melody's hair. She groaned. "You're gonna die." He 'sobbed'. "Cry cry cry… so sad it's happening."
"I'm joyful, quite frankly." Chara replied.
"Is the song over yet?!" Brayden asked. Frisk nodded solemnly. Brayden cheered. So did everyone else. Aside from Frisk, who did genuinely like the show.
"SO SAD," Mettaton said, wrapping his arms around the children. "SO SAD THAT YOU ARE ALL GOING TO THE DUNGEON." He held out a remote with a red button. "WELL, TOODLES!" He pushed the button. The kids fell down a hole, landing in front of a puzzle with colourful tiles. The same as the one in Snowdin. Brayden groaned again. He didn't like that puzzle. He hoped it would malfunction again. It didn't. The kids had to do it.
It was absolute chaos by anyone's standards. Even Frisk found the puzzle challenging, and they had done it many times. Everyone kept bumping into each other. Percy kept sneezing because he was somewhat allergic to oranges, and he currently radiated that scent. He felt like he was in some kind of sneezing Hell. Chara tripped onto Faye and they were almost eaten by piranhas. Cody unintentionally learned how to moonwalk. Melody and Brayden unintentionally learned the cha cha. And Frisk smelled like lemons.
Chara, holding Faye, crashed into Brayden and Melody doing the cha-cha. They all fell over. Cody got electrocuted and fell onto the piranhas. He was launched backwards onto Percy, who was trying not to die from his allergies. They waddled backwards and crashed into Frisk. The three held onto each other, twirling around in a little circle, and collided head-on with the others. They fell over, stuck. No one could move. I call this scene, 'scrambled eggs'.
"OOH, I'M SO SORRY," Mettaton apologized, eyeing the kids. It seemed he was trying not to laugh. "LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE OUT OF TIME! HERE COME THE FLAMES, DARLINGS!" The kids, still being scrambled eggs, couldn't do anything.
"THEY'RE CLOSING IN!" The fire approached the children, getting closer and closer.
"GETTING! CLOSER! OH MY! ANY MINUTE NOW!" The flames sat right around the kids, but didn't touch them.
Mettaton coughed robotically.
"Watch out!" Alphys said, her voice coming from the phones. "I'll…" She eyed the kids, trying not to laugh. "I'll save you! I'm hacking into the firewall right now!"
"Hee hee, firewall." Faye giggled, her face digged into Cody's side. Melody, with Brayden lying across her, groaned.
"OH NO!" Mettaton exclaimed. "HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN? FOILED AGAIN BY THE GREAT DOCTOR ALPHYS!" There was a pause. "THA-"
"That's right!" Alphys continued. "Come on, Mettaton, give up already! You'll never be able to defeat us… not as long as we work together!"
"Team SAVE Asriel forever!" Frisk cheered, somehow upside down and near Percy's shoes.
"Your puzzle's over…" Alphys said. "Now go home and leave us alone!"
"I'LL BE BACK…" Mettaton declared. He eyed the scrambled eggs. "WHEN THIS HILARIOUS MESS IS UNCLEARED! SO LONG, HUMANS!" He disappeared.
Frisk sighed in relief.
"W-well!" Alphys almost laughed. "That was interesting… you guys had better untangle yourselves."
"You don't say." Melody grumbled.
"Where are we going, Frisk?" Chara asked. Frisk was taking the kids the wrong way through Hotland. Chara, admittedly, didn't know this part of the Underground as well as Frisk but they could tell they were not going the right way.
"I don't actually know," Frisk replied. "My frisky senses are tingling."
"Are you related to Spiderman?" Percy asked Frisk.
"I wish," Frisk replied dreamily. They went around in a circle. Then backwards. Then another circle.
"WHAT THE HECK ARE WE DOING?!" Brayden asked.
"Following my frisky senses," Frisk responded, making jazz hands.
"I, uh, really don't like this..." Cody commented anxiously.
"Wait, what the heck is that?" Melody asked, turning to the right. There were a bunch of penguins in trash cans milling around.
"Yo dawg," said the one in front, who was wearing a blue hoodie. "I'm livin' it up in 2010."
"(That was eight years ago.)" Percy mumbled.
"What the actual...?" Chara asked. They shook their head. "Frisk, what the hell is this?"
"Bro we're the penguin squad," said that weird leader person. "We're the embodiment of crippling depression. Especially me. I am ultimate depression."
"if you mess with us youre gonna have a bad tom." Sans said, since he's apart of the penguin squad.
"I read hentai in the dark." Percy said, now apart of the penguin squad.
"NYEH HEH HEH!" The Great Papyrus cackled, also in the penguin squad...?
"Why was I born..." Melody sighed. Frisk was wearing a -_- expression. Suddenly they joined the penguin squad as well, putting a trash can over their body.
"Frisk dammit." Chara grumbled. Their eyes widened. "Wait... did you say crippling depression?" They made a face. "That's it. I'm joining the penguin squad too." Chara joined the Penguin Squad.
"We're loosing too many people to the dark side..." Melody mumbled. Suddenly Darth Vadar appeared, Star Wars music booming in the background. "That's not what I meant!"
A/N: And a shout-out to all the authors who are also in the Penguin Squad, including me. Jinx198 is apparently writing a chapter about the Penguin Squad in his Grouptale story so when it's out you should all read it. :P I swear to gosh all these author's notes are going to be about Jinx198... I'm so sorry Jinx. XD
As for the discontinuing/hiatus thing, I want to finish this fic so I won't pause this one but I might pause the original. We'll see how the feather flies. Weird saying. XD
