***Hello, my friends of all kinds! This special was inevitable. Use your heads. Anyways, Jackie, Arrow, and Sukoshi belong to me, Alphys and Undyne belong to Toby Fox, and let's get rolling!

Chapter Twenty-Nine: Happy Double Mother's Day

"What did you want us for?" Jackie said. She went into Arrow's bedroom with Sukoshi sitting in her hands. "I'm glad you came. Come on, sit down with me," Arrow said. He sat down on the bed, patting the spot next to him. Jackie went over and took up the indicated space. "So, what's up?" she asked.

"Tomorrow is Mother's Day," Arrow opened. Jackie tilted her head slightly to one side. "Mother's Day?" she echoed. "Yeah, I know you said your mom died having you. So you've never really celebrated it. But it's literally just what it sounds like. Anyways, since we've got two moms, we've really gotta do something good. Plus, this is the first time they've had two kids on Mother's Day," Arrow said.

He winced and looked down at Sukoshi, who had wandered into his lap and pinched his arm. "Three kids," he corrected. Sukoshi gave a thumbs-up. "So, do you have any idea as to what we should do for Mom and Momma tomorrow?" Jackie asked.

"I've already got it planned," Arrow said.

The next morning came. Jackie woke up after getting smacked in the face with her own pillow. "What the heck?" she asked, sitting up. Arrow dropped the taken pillow. "Never mind how I woke you up. Come on, let's go get started," he said. Then, he ran off towards the kitchen. Jackie put on her glasses and ran off after him.

As it turned out, all sorts of ingredients had been dragged out and scattered around. There were also other cookware items in the mix. "I found some of Mom's recipes from her cooking lessons with Toriel. I found breakfast ones. The handwriting is a little bit messy, but I can sorta read it. Well, I can read it good enough to where we can cook everything," Arrow explained.

Jackie was a little bit skeptical at that. But, she didn't linger on it for too long. "What all are we going to make?" she asked. Arrow searched around for a few moments until he spotted the recipe cards of choice. "Pancakes, bacon, eggs, and biscuits," he read off. Jackie thought about that. "I...think we can do that," she said.

"We can and we will. Now, where do you wanna start? I'll do the pancakes," Arrow said. "I'll do the biscuits, then," Jackie decided. So, the two went at it.

Things had been going...decently, for lack of a better word to describe it with. There had been a couple of spills and a handful of drops. But, that wasn't anything that couldn't later be fixed.

"Pound the dough into submission?" Jackie read off from the recipe cards for biscuits, a little confused. "Mom likes to pound things into submission when she cooks. Just start to punch the dough. Maybe use your shield to get it done faster," Arrow suggested. He poured some more batter onto his pan, not noticing that a little bit of it had drizzled off down the side.

Jackie summoned her shield. She began slamming it into the widespread amount of biscuit dough on the counter several times. When she was done, she noticed that she had knocked several other things and portions of the biscuit dough onto the floor. "Shoot," she mumbled.

"What's up?" Arrow asked, turning away from his pancake flipping. "Some of the dough got into the floor," Jackie explained. Arrow put down his spatula. He picked up the biscuit dough that was on the floor and mixed it back in with the dough still on the counter. "Problem solved," he said decisively.

"That's gross," Jackie remarked. She went to work at trying to separate the dough from the floor from the primary mound. Arrow turned back to his pancakes. "And they're all burnt on the bottom now," he sighed after flipping them. "Then start on making the eggs or something," Jackie said. Arrow went over towards the counter. "Nah, I'll help you for now," he said.

So, he and Jackie went towards finishing up on the biscuits. They only got to work for a few minutes, however. "Do you smell something burning?" Jackie asked. She and Arrow very slowly turned to see the forgotten pancakes. Staying there had lead to the ignition of a fire on the stove, smoke beginning to spread. It was the sound of the smoke alarm blaring that snapped the siblings out of their shock-induced trances.

"Water, water!" Jackie ordered. Arrow quickly went through the cabinets and found a large popcorn bowl. He filled it up with tap water. "Use this!" he exclaimed, handing it over. Jackie took the bowl and dumped it out over the fire. That fortunately did the trick.

"What's going on, you guys?"

Alphys and Undyne had come, still wearing pajamas, undoubtedly having been woken up by the smoke alarm. Sukoshi was sitting on Alphys' shoulder, still asleep despite it all. Jackie and Arrow just stood where they were, frozen in place. "I'm waiting for an answer," Undyne said sternly, her arms crossed.

Arrow sighed, deciding to speak up. "We tried to make breakfast for you guys since it's Mother's Day," he summarized. "As you can see, all we did was make a mess. We're sorry," Jackie apologized.

"I-I still think it's n-nice that you p-put in the th-thought," Alphys remarked. "Wait, really? You're not mad?" Arrow asked. "Of course not!" Undyne said as if it were obvious. It was amusing for her to see her kids so confused. "I-it's really s-sweet of you guys th-that you t-tried to make us b-breakfast," Alphys said.

Arrow hugged her tightly, grinning. "Happy Mother's Day, then!" he exclaimed. Alphys, used to crushing hugs, just hugged right back. "Yeah," Jackie said. Undyne picked her up in a hug. "You punks are the greatest," she said proudly. "Thanks," Arrow said. He grinned as he saw Sukoshi peck Alphys' cheek.

"I-I even think he w-wanted to sh-show his love," she said. Sukoshi nodded to confirm. "How about we go get dressed and go out to that new diner down the road for breakfast?" Undyne suggested. Everyone agreed to that wholeheartedly. So, Jackie and Arrow ran off to go get on some day clothes.

"They're so cleaning all of this up when they get home," Undyne said. "W-well, th-they did make th-the mess," Alphys agreed. "You're a great mom to those kids, you know that, babe?" Undyne asked. Alphys blushed a little at that. "W-well, I'm trying m-my best," she said. "I'm just like you, I'm trying my best," Undyne shrugged.

She kissed Alphys on the mouth, then looked accusingly at Sukoshi. "Ya see that, punk? I get to kiss her. Not you," she said. Sukoshi stuck his tongue out in response. Undyne rolled her eye. "Whatever. I'm going to go get dressed," she sighed. Then, she went upstairs to do as she'd said.

Alphys couldn't help her smile. Nothing in the world would bring her to do anything to change her family.

***And that would be that. Let me take a moment to say, thank you to mothers all over the world. You guys rock. Anyways, be sure to leave a review down below, and I'll see you all in the next one! Bye!
