'I just wanted to be famous.'
'But Mettaton, you're already famous!' Toriel remarked. 'Everybody knows who you are!'
'Yeah, in the underground.' Mettaton frowned.
'But didn't you perform on the surface too? I remember one of the royal guard dogs telling me that you went through the barrier one day.' Asgore recalled.
'I know, but..'
'buT WHaT?!' Temmie was also curious by now.
'The humans hate me.'

Most of them looked confused. Hate Mettaton? Sure, there were people who thought he was eccentric or narcissistic. But hating? Even Undyne didn't hate Mettaton!
Papyrus eventually broke the silence.
'BUT METTATON, HOW COULD ANYONE EVER HATE YOU?'
'Well, I performed in a city next to Uppertown..'
'and..?'
'After my performance, I asked a few random people on stage,' Mettaton told. 'I wanted to do my classic quiz show with them, but then..'

Mettaton paused, and a thin trickle of oil dripped from his left eye.
'They insulted and mocked me!' He sobbed.
'FLOWEY INSULTED YOU TOO AND HE DOESN'T HATE YOU!' Papyrus told.
Flowey grinned. 'I do-'
Sans covered Flowey's mouth with his hand.
'MRFFF! GET YOUR FILTHY HANDS- MRRRFFFFFF!'
'stop it, ya weed.'
'BROTHER! I KNOW THEY'RE A VERY VIOLENT PLANT BUT I DO NOT WANT YOU TO CALL FLOWEY NAMES!'

Mettaton continued to talk even though Flowey was yelling.
'H- he called me a stupid entertainment robot! And h-his friend threw tomatoes at me and my whole outfit was ruined and Alphys had to scrape the tomato mess out of me and and..'
Papyrus hugged Napstablook's laptop.
Flowey snorted and Frisk slapped him, which made Toriel frown.
'METTATON. WILL YOU LET A GANG OF SIMPLE-MINDED HUMANS RUIN YOUR TELEVISON STAR CAREER?'
'No.'
'THEN JUST IGNORE WHAT THEY DID! WHY DIDN'T YOU ASK SECURITY TO TAKE THEM OFF STAGE AND SEND THEM AWAY?'
'I did do that.' Mettaton wiped the oil from his face with a soft, pink handkerchief.
'THEN PRETEND IT DIDN'T HAPPEN NEXT TIME, OKAY?'
'Okay.'
'THERE THERE! PROBLEM SOLVED!' Papyrus proudly announced, putting his hands on his hips.
Flowey snorted again. Asgore and Toriel glared at him.
'mettaton, I know you're sad and all because those humans made fun of ya, but that still doesn't explain why you want to perform in bowser's castle.'
'Oh! Well- I- Er- I thought they'd appreciate me more.. cause they- they're monsters too.'
'BUT YOU KNOW THEY'RE VILLAINS!' Flowey snapped.' HOW COULD YOU-'
'look who's talking.'
'SHUT-'
Flowey turned back to normal, and he was sitting in a flowerpot once again.
'WHY YOU-'

Papyrus stood in between Flowey and his brother, and told them to stop fighting.
'Before I knew it, I signed a contract for a tour,' Mettaton continued. 'The Mushroom Kingdom tour.'
'And can the contract be broken?' Peach asked curiously.
'No.'
Frisk crawled over to Napstablook's laptop and faced the robot.
'But if you're going to Bowser's castle anyway..' She started.
'WHERE ARE YOU GOING WITH THIS, FRISK?'
'Then you can help Chara escape!'

Everybody stared at Frisk. Mettaton's face lightened up.
'I-I can? But how?'
'Maybe you can sneak out of the studio or wherever you're staying, find Chara and unlock her?'
'YES! THAT IDEA IS JUST GENIUS!' Papyrus complimented.
'if it works.' Sans added.

A yellow figure appeared behind Mettaton.
'H-hey e-everyone!' Alphys waved at them from the laptop screen.
'You're here too?' Asgore stared at the display.
'Yup. They told me that there's some stores in Sarasaland that sell anime and manga, and even merch, so I just came along with Mettaton. I also do some research here. Undyne came too, but she's checking out some weapons and armor, so she won't be coming back for a while.'
The group laughed when hearing this, and Alphys smiled awkwardly.

'Wait. Did you bring your science supplies, Alphys?' Flowey questioned.
'N-no.. I- they-Sarasaland has its own lab.'
'So you can build stuff there, right?'
'Well- yeah, technically, if it's needed..'

A wide grin appeared on the flower's face.' If that is so.. I have a plan..'

HOWDYY FOLKS IM BACK!
I didn't write for ages, because I had writer's block and zero inspiration.
But suddenly, BOOM. IDEAS.
And I really have no fricking idea when the next chapter is going to get published.
But at least I know what's going to happen next.
Well, STAY DETERMINED IF YOU WANT TO KNOW ABOUT FLOWEY'S INGENIOUS PLAN.
BOI!
(Maybe I'll post this on another website like Wattpad. Idk yet so don't count on it.)
