*You enter a stage. IT'S METTATON AGAIN! YAY! You walk on, rolling your eyes. What, don't like her? You say she's not your favorite, but she seems nice. Seems nice? She's awesome! Oh, she right above you, in a dress.*
"Oh, dear! Could it be my one true love?"
*She starts singing! Dance along! You comply, mentally groaning.*
"Oh my love, please run away, the monster king, forbids your stay, humans must, live far apart, even if, it break my heart, they'll put you, in the dungeon, it'll suck…and then you'll die a lot?"
*She seems confused at that line, but keeps going.*
"Really sad, you're going to die, cry cry cry, so sad it's happening."
*She comes up and whispers in your ear.*
"I'm so sorry for these lyrics. I did not write them."
*She speaks louder to the audience.*
"So sad that you are going to the dungeon. Well, tootles!"
*A trapdoor opens and you fall to an underfloor. When we leave, we need to see the footage. You tell me to be quiet about my crush. Rude much? And I don't have a crush! At least, not a big one…she's flying down. EE-eh. That's cool…maybe? You laugh at me.*
"Oh, no. Whatever shall I do! My love has been cast away into the dungeon. A dungeon so dastardly, you shall surely parish. Oh, dear! It's the dreaded colored tile maze! Each color has its own terrible purpose! Green tiles make you fight a monster. Red tiles can't be crossed, and-well, this is a common puzzle around the underground. I'm sure you already know all about it. Then I won't waste our viewers and your time reviewing it! And you should hurry, because in 30 seconds, you will die by being incinerated by these jets of fire."
*Flames appear, but Mettaton seems very uninterested, just playing along for the audiences' sake.
"My poor, sweet love! I'm s filled with grief I can't stop laughing! Hahahaha. Good luck, darling!"
*You start running as Mettaton sings more really bad lyrics. You don't even make it 3 lines of squares in, and are mildly panicking. You say it's more an act than anything else, since you're pretty sure Alphys is going to save you. That's true. Oh, Mettaton's speaking again.*
"I'm sorry, darling! It looks like you're out of time. Here come the flames, Gorgeous!"
*You stand still as flames surround you. They pause about a foot from you.*
"Ahem. Any minute now, they'll BURN YOU!"
*She adds emphasis at the end, and your phone rings. You put it on speaker phone. It's Alphys. you were right.*
"W-watch out! I'll s-save you! I-I'm hacking into it right now!"
*See, this makes sense to hack. You agree silently. The flames disappear. Mettaton sarcastically says something.*
"Oh, no! how could this happen, foiled again by the brilliant Alphys!"
*She begins to add something, but Alphys interrupts. Rude.*
"T-that's right! G-give up, M-Mettaton! You'll n-never defeat us, a-as long as we work t-together! N-now leave m-my f-friend…alone?"
"The puzzle, over? Alphys, darling, my guest star walked over 2 green tiles. They have to fight a monster. And the only monster here…IS ME!"
*Mettaton strikes back! You have watched Star Wars, right? You nod. Good. Your phone rings.*
"H-hey! This m-may seem bad, b-but don't worry! There's another thing I installed on your p-phone! Y-you s-see t-the y-yellow b-button! P-press i-it, then k-keep p-pressing i-it!"
*You comply, and your soul turns yellow. Oh, that just means you can shoot things with magical attacks through your soul. It's not an app. It's a natural magic some monsters are born with. Alphys is just chucking you full of lies. You 'defeat' Mettaton. She seems bored again, though she seemed excited to fight you.*
"Oh no. You defeated me, etc. Whatever."
*Mettaton leaves the FIGHT. Alphys is still on the phone with you.*
"L-looks like w-we beat her! W-we did great!"
*Yeah, you lying dino! You say thank you.*
"T-this might s-sound strange, but…c-can I tell you something?"
*You nod.*
"Before I met you, I didn't really have c-confidence in myself. I f-felt like a total screw-up…like I couldn't do anything…but g-guiding you has made me have much h-higher self-esteem! S-so…thank you for letting me h-help you. Anyways, you're almost to the Core. It's just past MTT Resort. L-let's do this!"
*You nod firmly and keep walking. You find the Nice Cream Guy. He smiles at you.*
"Hey! You know, I actually sold out of all my nice cream, and here's some gold for you! Since you gave me the idea, I thought I should at least save 50 gold for you."
*You thank him, and go back to Muffet. She smiles as you hand her 10 gold. You say it's not much, but it's better than nothing. She pats you on the head with her top left hand.*
"Thank you, dearie. Have fun~"
*You nod and continue onwards. You're at the entrance, and Sans is walking out from the right side, holding an Empty Gun and muttering to himself.*
"Justice…weapon…may have…hmm? Oh, hey, kiddo. I'd treat you to dinner, but I promised Cinder I'd only go to her diner. How'd Muffet treat you?"
*How'd Sans know you went to Muffet's? Anyways, you tell Sans it went well, declining to mention she took your necklace, killed you 23 times, and tried to bake a cake with you as the main ingredient.*
"Good to hear. Gotta go. And kiddo? Before you meet Asgore, I want you to stay with Paps for another day, 'kay?"
*You politely shake your head, saying you're DETERMINED to leave today. He seems saddened about something, but smiles through it.*
"Alright. Be safe kiddo, 'cause someone really cares about you."
*He walks off to the left, and you follow to ask more questions, but he disappears. In a dead end alleyway. He's official weird. You say you kind of like it. You're weird. You walk through, pausing at the golden star. The relaxing feeling of this resort fills you with DETERMINATION. You smile and enter the MTT Resort Gift Shop, wanting to buy something to remember everything down here by. There's some cranky cat-like cashier at the counter. He's smoking. You say hello.*
"Sorry. It's against the rules to talk to customers who haven't bought anything."
*You frown, and point to a small 'MTT' locket. He grins weirdly.*
"That'll be 40 G!"
*You hesitate, but hand him the gold, hooking the locket on your necklace. Cool! You say thank you.*
"Why do you want to talk to me, little buddy?"
*You say goodbye, and walk away.*
"See you, little buddy."
*That guy was weird. You nod, and keep going*
