"No."
Both Alphys and Undyne froze in shock, stopped by a large, thick hand, owned by a larger, thicker human. Alphys grabbed onto Undyne's hand, who held it tight.
"No?" Undyne echoed, her eye narrowing.
"No. No monsters."
A flash of anger hit both of them, and they both held each other's hands tighter from it. They stood at the front foyer of a restaurant, having just walked in and asked for a table. The host had paused, then waved over this large human, who had simply greeted them with that one word.
Alphys looked over the clientele of the place, noticing that, in fact, there were only humans in the restaurant. She went red, her hold on Undyne's hand tightening. "Undyne," she murmured.
"What do you mean, no monsters?" Undyne demanded, her voice low with her anger. "No monsters, tonight? No monsters, unless?"
"No monsters allowed," the human elaborated shortly. "We only serve humans."
"Why?"
"Undyne," Alphys repeated, tugging on her hand. "It's okay."
"It's not," Undyne growled, still glaring at the wall-like human. "The barrier is broken. We've been on the surface for almost a year, now. Why would you not allow monsters?"
The human didn't answer - they just crossed their arms over their chest.
"You know that you're wrong, right?" Undyne snapped, her voice rising with her anger. "We have every right to be here."
"We have the right to have our own rules," replied the human.
Alphys suddenly lost her temper. "Actually, you're w-wrong," she said shortly. "You're n-not allowed to do this."
"If you don't leave by yourselves, I'll help you," was the answer.
Undyne grinned, her fingers twitching. "Oh, do try, you-,"
"No!" Alphys broke in, pulling Undyne back a little. She glowered at the human. "It's not worth it. Let's j-just go."
Undyne raised her hand and gave them a rude gesture, then turned and stormed out, Alphys close behind her. Once outside, Undyne punched the door so hard she dented it.
Alphys pulled her hand close and kissed the knuckles of it gently, and Undyne sighed angrily.
"Let's go home, order delivery, and forget this happened," Alphys advised. With her head down, Undyne agreed.
