Undyne POV:
Ever since Chara and Asriel had become the new king and queen of the Underground, everyone in the place was filled with the most amount of hope they'd felt in quite awhile. Everyone had smiles on their faces, some even forgetting about the barrier altogether, which made me smile at how happy everyone was. But then, something happened with one of Gaster's machines that Alphys inherited after he was fired all that time ago. It was the one that was about time abnormalities. This one looked like it was all centered on just a single individual... and that it was coming from Old Home.
"You thinking what I am, Alphy?" I asked her with a frown.
"Yeah, it's gotta be Frisk... at least this time, the machine says the abnormality is non-threatening to the timeline. It's just a slight abnormality caused by Frisk being in the Underground, most likely from his soul being full of Determination... after all, according to Gaster, the machine did the same exact thing when Chara came to the Underground as well as Coraline and Kristof," Alphys frowned.
"Okay, I gotta call Asriel and Chara about this. Just in case this Frisk is a bad guy. We may not know what they'll do," I said as I then called Chara on the phone.
"Hello, Undyne. What's up?" she asked.
"Frisk, that's what's up," I said, Chara gasping on the other end.
"H-How?... In Sans's timeline, Frisk wasn't supposed to arrive until nearly 20 years later than today! Are you absolutely sure?" Chara asked in surprise.
"Well, it's either him or another human with a red soul, because this machine that Gaster made says there's a Determination soul in Old Home," I frowned.
"Okay, I'll get Asriel and get mom and dad to babysit Alina. It's time that we go out on one last excursion... and if this human, whoever they are, is a good person, I'd say it's time for us to test something, since we now have 7 and possibly 8 humans down here," Chara said, me gasping at that.
"You got it, Queeny! We'll meet up by the River Person's boat," I smiled, hanging up soon after and looking at Alphys with a smile. "Alphy, you stay here and watch over the lab and the patients. Remember, if you get anyone that has bad issues, give them a single droplet of Chara's blood in their mouth, got it?" I said to her.
"Of course. Go get 'im, Undyne!" Alphys smiled at me widely, me then leaving the lab via the elevator and going to the dock for the River Person. I waited for a good couple of minutes before Chara and Asriel arrived, all of us having our Gaster Blasters on us and being prepared.
"We called Bow as well, since she also has a Gaster Blaster and is part of the Royal Guard. We'll meet with her in Snowdin," Chara said as we then got on the boat and the River Person looked at us.
"I hear you, Snowdin. Let's go," they said as they then boated us over there quickly. And upon exiting, we saw that Bow was at the docks and she was ready to kick butt.
"Keep in mind, we have no idea who this person is and, if they do happen to be Frisk, there's no telling if they'll be a good person or a bad one," Asriel said, all of us nodding at that and going towards Old Home. And, upon getting there, we saw that the door was wide open and the residents of the place were waiting at the entrance, me wondering what was going on.
"We caught the human, guys. This human killed a Loox and a Migosp and when we all got him, we tied him up so he couldn't hurt anymore," one of the Froggits said as they then moved aside and we saw that the human... was Frisk. And they looked to be gagged as of right now with a piece of spider silk on his mouth. And they were trussed up all over with very tight ropes.
"Well, looks like you guys learned from my teachings," Bow smiled at them. It was true, Bow taught them how to defend themselves in case a killing human did happen to get to the Underground. Chara then went up to the human and took the gag off of them, Frisk frowning at us with his eyes very small and barely able to open.
"Listen, we need to know if you killed those monsters on purpose or if you killed because you were scared. And tell us the truth, got it?" Chara frowned, Frisk simply sitting there with a frown as they then muttered something under their breath. "Huh? What was that? I couldn't hear you," Chara frowned as she got closer to the kid and put her ear next to his mouth. She then listened intently as Frisk muttered some more and Chara nodded and hummed at that.
"So you were scared and threw your stick at one of the monsters and it killed them... so they all came after you and you only killed one other monster before they all ganged up on you and captured you... hmm..." Chara frowned as she looked at Asriel and he nodded. Ever since he'd become king in Asgore's stead, Asriel could sense if someone told the truth just by sensing their souls.
"He's truthful. Also, he's a male human," Asriel said, me smirking at that.
"So how come your voice is so hard to hear? I couldn't hear it at all..." Bow frowned as the other monsters soon dispersed after hearing that. Frisk then spoke some more, but this time, we could hear him, though just barely.
"i... i'm very shy... and very scared..." Frisk said, me looking at him with a smile.
"Well, why don't you tell us your name?" I smirked.
"frisk... my name's frisk... thank you... for believing me..." he said as Chara then undid his ropes and we saw that he had a couple marks on his arms from the monsters. "c-can i... see my mom again?... i fell down here after tripping on a tree root... i wanted to find some buttercups... as a get-well present..." Frisk said, me smiling at him.
"Yeah, we can. We just have to get you and the other humans down here to the castle. It's high time that we destroy that barrier once and for all," I smirked, Bow gawking at that.
"Are you serious? We can get out of here?!" Bow asked in glee. I nodded at that as Chara and Asriel then got on their phones and began to call up the different humans in the Underground as we made our way back to the castle. If this didn't work, then I'd eat my foot.
Chara POV:
"So, are we all ready to do this?" I asked all the humans in our group, including Frisk.
"I think we are," Sizz smiled.
"uh... i'm a little bit nervous... to be honest..." Frisk said with honesty.
"Don't worry, Frisk. This barrier can break if all 8 of us will attack it at the same time. I mean, it is supposed to shatter with just 7, but we wanted to wait until we got 8 down here, just to make sure," Bow smiled at him.
"Right, then. Let's go get 'er done," Walker smirked as we all then went to the barrier room with all of our monster friends and family waiting outside for us. Asgore, Bratty, Catty, Alphys, Mettaton, Coraline, Kristof, Undyne, and the Dreamurrs were all hoping for a miracle.
"When I say 3, we attack it all at the same time with whatever weapon we got. Okay, everyone?" Tutie asked.
"Right, hon!" Mitts smiled.
"Indeed, this shall be our greatest hurdle. If we can surpass the barrier, we can all return to the surface with the monsters we've come to call family," Brian smirked.
"Okay. 1... 2... 3!" I exclaimed as all of us attacked the barrier at the same exact time, all of our weapons clanging into the barrier in unison. And when we did, we were surprised when nothing happened at first... but then the most awesome thing happened. After a few seconds, the barrier started to crack apart all over the place! And after five seconds of nonstop cracks, the barrier then completely shattered, the bits and pieces of magic falling to the ground all at the same time with the sound of glass hitting the floor with each bit that dropped!
"Oh my god... d-did it... did you just..." Undyne gawked, me smirking at that as we looked out of the door and we saw it for ourselves. The barrier was demolished, the staircase to the summit of the mountain was directly in front of the door!
"WE DID IT! We can finally go see the surface!" Alina exclaimed in glee happily as she ran to me and hugged me happily, me picking her up with a giddy smile.
"Yes, we did it, Alina. And now we have to tell everyone the great news! I wonder who can do so the fastest?" I smiled as I looked over at the three performers and they smiled at me.
"Alright, you two! Time for the ultimate ratings contest! Let's see who can tell the most monsters about the barrier being shattered!" Mettaton exclaimed.
"You bet, Mettaton! Loser has to clean the winners' bathroom with their hair!" Coraline smiled.
"Oh, it is so on!" Kristof smirked as they all then proceeded to televise the event on their own cameras and I smirked at how they turned everything into a contest.
"Once everyone gets the news, we'll be leaving the barrier and going back into society," I smiled widely.
"But where would we go to? I mean, your village doesn't seem like the best choice, even if it changed for the better," Asriel said with a frown.
"Simple. We will go to the nearest city and, upon arrival, we will go to their courthouse and get everyone citizenship to the United States," I said with a smile.
"United States? What's that?" Bratty asked.
"It's the name of the nation we live in," Tutie smirked.
"And there are well over 150 different nations on this planet. More than enough room for us to populate," Brian smirked.
"Indeed, it will be very interesting to see the surface," dad smiled widely. "After all, the only monster still around since we were all sealed down here is Old Man Gerson."
"He's probably gonna be pretty ecstatic to see the surface again," mom smirked with a giggle.
Asriel POV:
After everyone in the Underground got the message, we all congregated into the castle from the different elevators that went there and we were all prepared.
"Okay. Friends, family, humans, and monsters. Today marks the day we have all long awaited for. The day that we will go to the surface world and reintegrate into human society," Chara said, everyone cheering at that happily. "Now, just so we're clear, there are some things to note about the humans on the surface. There are just about as many nice humans on the surface as there are mean ones. So it may take awhile for them to accept our presence on the surface. But if we stay as peaceful as we have been and we stay pacifists, the humans will eventually see that we are not just deserving to share the world with them, but that we were all wrongfully put in here in the first place." Chara said, the crowd smiling and nodding at that.
"Now I say we get going to the surface. It's almost time for one of the most beautiful sights you can see. The sunset is coming!" I smiled, everyone gasping as we then rushed through the door in a single-file line and proceeded out of the door leading to the summit of Mount Ebott, the sun in the distance being a very colorful spectacle as half of it was over the horizon to the west.
"Oh my word... this... this is beautiful..." Undyne said with tears in her eyes.
"I always knew that the sun would be a gorgeous sight to see firsthand from those anime I watched... but seeing it in person? And feeling it on my scales... it's the most amazing thing I've ever felt... other than Undyne kissing me, that is," Alphys smiled, her giggling as Undyne then gave her a hug and a kiss for that.
"Yes, the sunset is a very mesmerizing sight... it almost brings a tear to my eye that I and all the other Temmies can finally reunite with humanity," Bob smiled.
"HOI! Tem wanna never forget dis moment!" one of the other Temmies smiled widely.
"I agree, this is a moment none of us will regret. The day that we all left the imprisonment of the Underground and where we all reintegrate into human society. It's honestly so surreal to think it's happening, but it is," Gaster said with his mind helmet.
"heh, i bet there are a lot of jokes about the sun. can't wait to hear them all," Sans smiled.
"I'm so excited! Let's all go greet the people!" Papyrus smiled as he then tried to run off, but Gaster picked him up before he could, making him pout.
"Now, now, not so fast. The nearest village is my own and it wasn't the nicest place when I arrived in the Underground. I think we should go to the city, where Bow was from," Chara smiled.
"Y-You mean... I can see my family again?" Bow asked, me nodding at that.
"Yes, you can see them again. All of us can," I smiled at her.
"Yeah, let's get going to the city! But, like, where do we go?" Catty asked.
"I'll lead the way, since I got here from that city," Bow smiled.
"Everyone follow Bow and we'll be back home in no time!" I smiled, but I did notice that Frisk was a bit sad and he looked at me with a sad frown as everyone began to follow Bow. "Hey, Frisk? What's wrong?" I asked him.
"I... I don't really have a home to go to," he said, me looking at him with a small frown. "M-My family... I didn't have one... I was at an orphanage... but it got burned down by a bad person... I fell down there running away from the fire..." Frisk said, me smiling and hugging him, Chara looking at me and staying behind with Alina.
"Hey, Frisk... how about you be a part of our family?" Chara asked, Frisk looking at her with a snivel and then hugging her, me smiling at that as Alina and I joined it.
"Say hello to your uncle Frisk, Alina," I smiled.
"Yay! I got a uncle!" Alina giggled, Frisk sniffling at that as we noticed that mom and dad and the others had gone ahead.
"We should get going after them. We are their king and queen, after all," Chara smirked, me nodding and us going after them. Off to our new life on the surface.
