Pearl was looking to see if she could see anything suspicious, in case this Undyne was around. Steven however happen to see another Echo Flower right beside him. He look at it before it said in a panic tone "look out behind you!" Steven was confused but then a female voice call out "the last human soul, finally!" Steven turn to see a tall and well build armor monster with long red hair in a ponytail sticking out from the helmet. He backed up a little as the monster moved towards him. "You are the last one, only one more before King Asgore becomes a god. He'll break the barrier and bring back what was ours before." Steven knew then that this monster must be one of the royal guards, looks to be kinda powerful too. The female monster pull out her blue spear saying "I Undyne will now take your soul by force." Steven's eyes widened as he turned he saw Pearl far off the distance. He knew if he ran to her he might get slaughter by the spear. But if he ran forward without stopping, he may have a chance.

So Steven ran off screaming while Undyne ran after him yelling "get back here you punk!" Steven happen to saw lots of tall grass up ahead so he ran right to the grass and hid in the tall grass. Once he was in the grass, he happen to see Monster Kid looking at him with excitement. Just then rattle body armor was heard and Steven kept real quiet hoping Undyne won't find him. The the rattling noise stop when suddenly Steven saw Undyne's hand reach to pick up MK. Steven lay low as Undyne bring MK up to her level. She groan with frustration as she put MK back down. She walk off away from where Steven and MK are at. Steven walk out of the tall grass with MK following behind. MK yelled "yo, did you see that? Undyne pick me up. I'm never going to wash my face again." Steven only smiled though he was too scared of what just happen. "Don't worry, I'm sure you'll be able to get to meet her again." MK began to run off but fell on his face again, he was able to get back up with his tail.

Once MK was out of sight, Steven looked around remember he lost Pearl while running away from Undyne. He sighs as he call out Pearl's name. There was no answer so he decide to keep moving, hope for the best to see Pearl soon. Pearl didn't notice that Steven wasn't with her till she turn around to see Steven was nowhere to be found. Pearl began to panic as she ran and kept looking around for Steven. Just then as she was about to cry out Steven's name, she heard Papyrus voice. "Hello Undyne, I'm here for my duty report." Pearl knew that Papyrus was talking to someone but she couldn't hear the other person. She hid in the grass as she listen to Papyrus speaking to Undyne. "What? Did I fight the human why of course I did." Few seconds later. "I… I didn't capture the human. I… couldn't. He was so sick from the cold. He does have a friend." Pearl gasp knowing who Papyrus was talking about. "Well Sans say that she's a Crystal Gem, whatever that means. Wait what?"

Pearl gulped as she heard what came next from Papyrus, "you're going to take the human's soul yourself? But Undyne, the human and the human's friend are really nice. Just give them both a chance and you'll see." It was silent for a moment then Papyrus spoke before he went on his way, "well if you ever see them maybe you could get along with both of them." Papyrus' footsteps was heard leaving. Pearl was about to get up when a loud booming voice cry out "who's there?!" Pearl stopped and listen to see if Undyne would come any closer. But to Pearl's surprised Undyne's footsteps was heard going far away from where she was at. Pearl got up and see nothing but the grass and the darkness. Pearl sighs as she walk off hoping to find Steven and a way out.

In the meantime Steven was walking and wonder if he ever going to see Pearl again. Just then he happen to see two strange looking houses. Both look to be leaning over one another, one is purple and the other is blue. He thought that both houses looked strange, just then he heard a familiar voice said "oh hello again. I wasn't expecting you here." Steven turn to see Napstablook right behind him, this time wearing black headphones. Steven said "oh hello, I was just trying to find Pearl." Napstablook nods asking to make sure he was right, "she is that Crystal Gem, right?" Steven nods saying "yeah, so am I." Napstablook nods, "I remember, just making sure." Steven smiled and Napstablook invited Steven into his house. Once inside, Steven couldn't believe how small it was. He went to the refrigerator and Napstablook said as he open the door, "let me, since you are my guest I'll serve you." He pull out a ghostly like sandwich, he gave it to Steven to eat.

Steven tried it but he couldn't taste anything. Napstablook then show Steven some recording tapes he likes to play. Mostly is call "Spooky Tapes" but Steven enjoy it. Then Napstablook said "if you want we could lie on the floor. It's kinda a tradition for me to do." Steven ask "oh how does it work?" Napstablook said "oh well all you have to do is lay down and think of nothing at all, I guess. Then whenever you want to get up you can." Steven nods and said "okay, I'll try it." Napstablook lay down on the floor first then Steven join in. As they lay there, stars began to swarm around the room. Steven thought it was really cool how the room had turn into billions of stars, it was almost like the whole galaxy. They both lay there for over ten minutes before Steven got back up, then Napstablook got up.

Steven said "that was kinda fun. I have to go, I'm sure Pearl is worried sick about me." Napstablook understood saying "if you ever stop by just come and visit me." Steven nods saying "I sure will and thank you for inviting me into your house." Napstablook nods and shut the door once Steven walk out of the house. Steven turn as he wave at Napstablook before the door closed all the way. Steven began to walk off to find Pearl and hope that he doesn't meet Undyne again.

In the meantime Pearl kept looking around for Steven when she happen to see a small store that says "Tem Shop" on it. Pearl look through the window to see if maybe Steven was in there, but there was no sign of Steven anywhere. She sighs as she was about to walk off when she stop to see a strange looking gray and white cat with blue and yellow stripe shirt looking at her. "Hoi, name Temmie. Wait, are you a gem?" Pearl wonder how in the world this creature knew that she was a gem but then again probably saw her gem on her forehead. Pearl nods as Temmie continue "hoi gem, I shall let you past. I knew Rosie very well." Pearl was about to ask how he knew Rose when he disappear into the darkness. Pearl sighs as she went to search for Steven once again.

Pearl kept going and looking for Steven when a voice ask "hey, where's your friend, Steven?" Pearl turn and was relief when she saw Sans right beside her. Pearl said "I don't know, he was with me for a moment but when I turn he was gone. I'm worried that something happen to him or he got himself lost." Sans said "don't worry. I'll help you find him. I see how important he is to ya." Pearl smiled at Sans saying "thank you." Sans walk beside Pearl saying "no problem, now my only worry is Undyne. I hope she didn't found the kid." Pearl nods saying "that's my worry too. I just hope that he didn't ran into her. I heard your brother talking to her." Sans nods saying "yeah, Undyne is the one training him to be in the royal guard. Though I think Steven had changed his mind about capturing humans."

Pearl looked at Sans for a moment but didn't say anything. Sans could read her expression saying "since the kid got sick and had a nightmare, Paps began to see that there is no real threat in humans at all. Even I started to see that. You and Steven shown mercy to a lot of monsters." Pearl didn't really think of that before. She thought about what Sans said and thought that maybe it's a good thing Steven did came with her. Who knows what would happen if he wasn't with her to stop her from killing that frog? Would she kill more monsters if Steven didn't even stop her? She didn't know the good answer. All she knew was that she had to find Steven and hope Undyne wouldn't find Steven.
