So here we are, the Surface.
He woke up, he didn't feel Chara's presence anymore and Flowey along with Asriel was gone. Asgore, Toriel, Papyrus, Sans, Undyne, Mettaton, and Alphys were standing there. Waiting for Aaron to wake up, he then said this.
"Hey."
They looked at Aaron, Sans helped him up.
"man kid, that was some nap which i also remembered taking." Sans said
"YEAH, WE WERE STOPPING THE FIGHT FROM OCCURRING WHEN... WEIRD, CAN'T REMEMBER." Papyrus said
"I can't either, strange." Asgore said
Aaron shrugged, he then noticed a door nearby.
"So, we should probably go see the Surface, huh." Aaron said
Everyone nodded as they walked towards the door, they walked outside and the sun was just setting in the distance. Aaron felt calm.
"It's been a couple of days since i've seen the sunset, you really begin to appreciate it after being in a cave for so long." Aaron said
"Yes, for use it's been a long time." Asgore said
After a bit of silence, Asgore looked at Aaron with a serious look.
"I think we're going to need an ambassador for the Monster's, maybe you can fill the role?" Asgore asked
"Asgore, i'm a kid. I don't think i'm cut out for that plus going from average kid of ambassador of Monster's is kind of not my cup of tea, i'd prefer just being a kid." Aaron said
"If you're sure." Asgore said
"MAYBE I CAN BE THE AMBASSADOR!" Papyrus said
"Not a good idea but maybe you can make a good impression for us?" Aaron asked
Papyrus then walked away with a Nyeh heheh with Undyne along with Alphys following with Undyne wanting to make a good impression also with Alphys making sure they don't get into trouble, Sans looks at Aaron.
"i'll go tell everyone." Sans said
"I'll come with." Asgore said
The two then leave, Aaron sits on the edge as does Toriel.
"So, what are you going to do now?" Toriel asked
"Considering i have no family, no actually good housing, no idea how to cook, maybe i could stay with you.. if that'll be fine of course." Aaron said
"Of course Aaron." Toriel said
"Can... can i call you Mom instead, i did once and i didn't know if y-"
"You can." Toriel said
"Thanks... Mom." Aaron said
Toriel then got up, she patted Aaron's head while saying this.
"I'll get everything packed."
Aaron looked at the sunset, he pulled out the locket, he can feel it beating like an actual heart sometimes. Aaron put it on, remembering his process. He got up and walked down the mountain to see some guard with weapons pointed at the three Monsters. Aaron ran down as Undyne was ready to do something rash.
"Don't hurt them!" Aaron said
The Guards looked at Aaron shocked as he ran down, he then jumped over the Monsters and landed in front of them. The guards stopped pointing the weapons at them, Aaron looked at them confused.
"You went missing, so we were told to set up a post here to see if you got out. We thought you died but... your not and you're with these things." One of the guards said
"They are Monsters, don't get them confused with the bad types. They're nice, well some of them are assholes but a lot of them are nice." Aaron said
The Guard that spoke sighed, he then said this.
"Listen, we have to keep you here for the night. We can't go back to town since it would take a couple hours, so we're sending a messanger out to talk to the captain about this." The Guard said
Aaron nodded, before he left Aaron said this.
"There will be more coming down, i'll explain the situation to them."
The guards nodded as they left them alone, the three Monsters looked at Aaron confused. He then looked at them with a shrug.
"I don't know what's going on or why they were searching for me but we should follow their directions." Aaron said
"Well i do-"
"If you cause another Monster Human war to occur Undyne, i'mma make sure that we both don't make it through." Aaron said
Undyne then shut up, Aaron sighed as he adjusted his poncho.
"Come on, let's get going." Aaron said
Later
The Monsters were set up in tents, Aaron was sleeping in a tent alone. His stuff nearby, he was awake as he didn't know what the expect from this. He just thought he would make contact with civilization again, told the mayor what happened, they discussed it and things would be over from there. But things clearly didn't go according to plan.
'This may not turn out well but i think we enough effort, things might go smoothly.' Aaron said
He then slowly fell asleep, having a nice dream along with it.
That morning
Aaron was currently on a horse with one of the guardsmen, Toriel was nearby seeing she's technically her legal guardian now. The other Monsters were either chatting it up with some of the guards or with each other while others just kept to themselves, they later arrived at the village. Aaron got off the horse as Seren walked over, Aaron and Seren looked at each other silently.
"You must be Aaron." He said
"And your Captain Seren, captain of the guard of this village." Aaron said
"Clearly you know me then." Seren said
"Your son drived me out of the village." Aaron said, somewhat angry
Seren sighed, he then got to a knee and put a hand on Aaron's shoulder.
"I think i need to tell you the truth." Seren said
"About what?" Aaron asked
"A lot of things, if it's okay with your legal guardian." Seren said
Aaron loked at Toriel, she simply nodded. Seren smiled, he got and looked at the guards.
"Get these people to the south side of the village, after i'm done talking to Aaron. I will give you directions." Seren said
The Guards nodded, they then guided the Monster's to the south part of the village as Aaron and Seren went to the station. After arriving, Aaron was sat down at a table across Seren. It was silent, Aaron sighed and asked this.
"What's truth, besides that my parents have been dead this whole time." Aaron said
"I should tell you that your Mother was a nurse in the Guard. She helped heal people from battleing and keeping the peace, and your father was a part of the guard. They fell in love and got married, leading up to you being born." Seren said
"Okay, and?" Aaron asked
"Your father was named Altas, he was the former captain of this guard before... he died in a bandit attack." Seren said
Aaron looked at Seren shocked, HIS DAD WAS A FORMER CAPTAIN?
"And your mother was Emma was the best nurse here, taking care of all sorts of wounds and making advances in medical research. She died due to an illness that she succedded in curing but at the cost of her life." Seren said
"Oh... okay, now i finally now that after a couple of years." Aaron said
"That's not the end of it, your mother had a sister name Theresa. She's still alive and is... my wife." Seren said
Aaron then looked at Seren shocked.
"YOUR MY UNCLE!" Aaron said
"Yes, the thing was... my son never knew you were his cousin. Only that your father was captain of the guard, he didn't respect that. He stole money, food, silverware, a fridge for some reason, and even plates from you. Still don't know why he stole that." Seren said
"I know right, i've been asking myself that for a while." Aaron said
"After finding enough evidence to put him in jail for not only theft, but also drug trading." Seren said
Aaron just looked at Seren with a blank look.
"Huh... that's weird." Aaron said
"Yep, he does a lot in his sparetime that i didn't know about. He even ran a thief's guild." Seren said
"How did he do that?" Aaron asked
"Money can be very convincing." Seren said
Aaron sighed, he looked at Seren with a serious look.
"Okay, one question though." Aaron said
"And that is?" Seren asked
"WHY DIDN'T YOU TAKE CARE OF ME?!" Aaron asked
"...We couldn't." Seren said
"What?" Aaron asked
Seren sighed, he looked out the window.
"Money was already scarce with my wife and child, we couldn't afford to take care of you. We still couldn't after you were kicked out of the orphanage, if we did. We would have been able to help you control your magic." Seren said
"Wait you knew about that?" Aaron asked
"Yes, you see. Your Mother's lineage had a lot of wizards, when wizards began to die out. Your mother's lineage had somehow prevailed, your mother couldn't use magic but when you were born. You had incredible magical power, your mother loved you for that. She said it would make life interesting, how sad she never got to see where you are today." Seren said
Aaron simply nodded, he then got up and out his chair.
"I think we're done here." Aaron said
"Yes, but someday you must tell me the story of what happened in Mt. Ebott." Seren said
Aaron looked at Seren with a grin.
"Okay but you better be ready for a loooootttt of crazy shit." Aaron said
"I guess i should." Seren said
Aaron then left the station, he walked to the south part of the village with Seren following behind. Aaron got to Toriel, he mentioned that he just learned of some new stuff and would tell her later. Seren stood in front of the Monster's and guards.
"First things first, Monster's are going to be allowed to live in town here. They are going to be able to do whatever they want with these buildings as they have been abandoned for a long time. Second, you are allowed to conduct trade and open business along with following with the same laws along with new one's made for both Human's and Monsters to follow to keep things fair. Third, any one of you are allowed to join the Guard here. Your skills will be valuable on the battle field, if any of you were the guard captain then you will be captain of your division. Fourth, you may be able to integrate parts of your culture into ours, we are an open culture here in Ebott. Fifth, you are indeed allowed to adopt Human children along with putting any children that you can have in the adoption center, we are saying this because we want to keep things fair not because we want you to abandon any of your children. Fifth, if any of you are royalty, you do have a place in the council and will be allowed to put in law or suggest them as such. You are all allowed to vote regardless of royalty. That will be all." Seren said
Seren and the guards left, the Monsters chatted amongst each other. Aaron looked at Toriel with a smile, he walked over to one of the more large structures. He opened the old wooden door, he looked around. Enough rooms for ten people, bathrooms for each bedroom, a living room, a dining room, a kitchen with a placed in sink nearby for watching along with cabinet's (though they could be fixed up), even a basement and attic. Weird the place never had anyone living in it but who cares free house.
Two months later
The houses were now made of a fusion of metal and stone along with wood, Aaron had his very own bed with a view of the outside, a closet, a table for working, a table for any technology he has. He was in his bed, sleeping away as it was morning.
"AARON!" Toriel yelled
Aaron woke up, he then yelled this back.
"YEAH MOM?"
"IT'S TIME FOR BREAKFAST!" Toriel said
Aaron smiled, he got dressed in a green hoodie along with blue jeans and black strap shoes. He wore his glasses, he was about to leave but look in his room one last time. He then left, leaving the room empty.
Long chapter with some look later but... i'd think we're just getting started.
I'll see you guys in the Fandom.
