Wealth, Fame, and Power! W. D. Gaster, The King of The Pirates, had all those and the rest of what the world had to offer! Through many battles and trials, he had reached the pinnacle of the world's virtues and had nothing left but an illness that plagued him.
He brought himself in and was held at a worldwide public execution. Before he was executed, a man from the crowd asked:
"Where did you hide all your treasure?!"
To which the King of Pirates smiled and said:
"You want my treasure? You can have it! I left the most important treasure in the world on an island! Go and find it! 'For the next pirate that finds the UnderPiece, will be claimed the new King of The Pirates!"
Those were his final words before he was executed. He smiled to his death.
With those words, the world was flipped upside down as he created The Golden Pirate Era! People and already existing pirates from around the works started to sail the seas in search of the treasure that W. D. Gaster claimed to be-
The UnderPiece!
It had been Twenty Years since, and people have yet to find the treasure he was talking about. Except for one girl, who is now going to change the world by storm for the sake of her people.
This is the story of Muffet D. Baker and her way to becoming Queen of the Pirates!
It had been two days since they left Yetera, it seems that the balls of light pushed back the islands incredibly far. She didn't remember the islands being so distant. The next island was Monzierre, an island that was mainly accompanied by rich people, the richest in the East Blue.
The crew insisted that they'd go around it to not only save massive amounts of time that could be spent sailing to more beneficial islands. However, Muffet insisted they check every island, just in case someone wanted to come aboard, she always looked into the greater of someone.
Although they had much to say, it was the captain's orders. Maybe they'll see that little something Muffet was eager to see.
Slowly, she lost her grief over Kris, occasionally she'll think of him during dinner and before she went to sleep, but she stopped getting mad or emotional over it. The more she spent time with her new crew friends, the more she began to place more faith in them.
They weren't kidding, they were honest to hard and outspoken people. If their words weren't enough to inspire you, their actions were. It was a ship of motivation, Muffet being the main person for that.
She had also grown to know Muffet a bit more and immediately knew that she wasn't the brightest in terms of academics or common sense. She always rushed into things before thinking at all. However, in terms of morals, justice, cooking, and battle, she was a different person. She was too full of wisdom when it came to that.
Every time Muffet felt a slimmer of discord or melancholy on her ship, she would tend to them based on their personal preference, she made sure everyone on her ship was comfortable and lively. Her words of unintelligent encouragement kept everyone afloat.
Honestly, Susie really likes bonding with Undyne, they seem to always match each other's energy and she was her main life coach and counselor. It felt like Undyne had been exactly in her shoes before like Undyne was the cool aunt, Muffet seemed to like the older sister that was always doing things the family never knew about. Ralsei felt like a mom, she mothered everyone on the ship.
Which made sense, because Ralsei was the oldest. However, Ralsei always checked on her frequently on the ship to make sure she was okay. And if she was bored, she would have her observe her soul and the stuff she could use to help with that in her room. Ralsei was also the smartest person she knew.
Undyne was cool but, she was mainly a muscle head. Muffet practically had no head, and Kris was just as smart as she was, so Ralsei by default has been that pinnacle of intelligence. She respected that.
So far, she seemed to gather that these three women seem to be people wanting to better each other. When it wasn't chaotic with their contrasting characters, it was a wholesome time on the ship. The opposite of what she'd expected pirates to be. However, she felt bad that the only times they've talked to her, was always about her and not them as well.
She wanted to use this day to get to know her new friends better, if she was going to be sailing with them for quite a while, most likely the rest of her life, she had to take initiative...although she is shy by nature, she should atleast try.
Susie woke up with Fuhu on her stomach, sleeping. She never knew how this pet was bred or even if it was bred at all, but she loved it. It was super docile and always wanting to give love. She could see why it was the mascot.
She slowly got off the bed not trying to wake up Fuhu. She succeeded. Susie naturally didn't tend to her hair, she preferred the unkempt rocker look that covered her eyes. She still kept the outfit from Yetera, mostly because they didn't have many outfits on the ship. That was one thing it was lacking.
She always seemed to wake up at the latest, everyone was always already woken up an hour earlier than her. She didn't mind.
Susie brushed her teeth with a cup of water that was in her room. Her room was below the deck and in a room behind the stairs. It was originally there to store the drinks but they had to make room for her. Their ship didn't house that many rooms.
She rinsed with the water and spat it on the floor, she didn't care. She walked out and saw no one was on the second floor at all, usually Ralsei was atleast here since her room was down here and so was the captain's. Although Muffet never slept in her room, she always slept on the owl head, the figurehead, of the ship.
However Susie did hear the sounds of hammer and nails being clashed together upstairs, she raised a brow to it, they had been working on that for two days now.
She went upstairs and opened the hatch.
"Hey, Susie's awake!" Undyne said waving at her. She was in the middle of her workout. Which, Susie was planning on doing too with her, she wanted to get stronger too, if she wanted to free Kris from Impel Down eventually, she'd had to be ready to take on the Warden and the vice wardens. They were said to be on par with the toughest of Warlords.
She had atleast read up on the power hierarchies of the world. She knew that if they were struggling on Chaos King, then they were far away from even touching a Warlord.
Susie waved back, Undyne chuckled.
Undyne had grown close to Susie, it was a weird connection they had. Like talking to a reflection that had their different sentience.
"Oi! Susie! Goodmorning!" Muffet waved at her with all six of her arms, a few nails pinned between her teeth to have room to keep them. Her arms still had the silk wrappings on them. She had wondered had badly she messed up her arms back at Yetera. She was told of the battle of StarDrop Island by Undyne at dinner on her first night, she was good at telling stories.
She had grown fonder respect of her crewmates and more for her captain. She ate two island-level attacks and was still alive and conscious. Her captain was not one to underestimate or laugh at, push comes to shove, she's really tough.
Ralsei smacked Muffet over the head with a hammer, Muffet held her head in pain. Only Ralsei was able to harm her with physical attacks, only when she's angry, however.
"Stop moving. Do you want this done or not?" Ralsei gave her captain an ultimatum.
"Fine fine, I'm sorry dearie~" Muffet helped her doctor out some more, they were planning on using the purple wood they got from Yetera to build the parlor that Muffet always wanted. Right, where the peaches were...were...the peaches were demolished by Fuhu when they left him alone. So they had to repurpose that area.
Plus, the original layout of Muffet's dream ship had a parlor that she planned to make income from for her future continent, now that they had the resources, they might as well start now.
With Muffet's pastries, they were bound to sell.
Undyne came up from behind Susie and patted her on her shoulder.
"It's best if we let them be, for now, they aren't a building type, so any distractions could make them mess up easily. I have something I want to show you anyways!" Undyne gave her toothy smile that Susie was fond of.
Susie gave her a wholesome cheeky grin.
"Sure dude, whatever you say." Susie was brought towards the helm of the ship, it was a clear sky, yesterday was a nightmare, however. With high winds and heavy rain, everyone had to handle one part of the ship and had to let Ralsei stutter her instructions out to make them barely survive the storm.
Undyne leaned against the back of the figurehead, she gave Susie an interested eye. Susie knew that if she wanted to know everyone a little better, she should start with Undyne first since she was the easiest to talk to.
"Look, when we were at the party, I had to uh...take a piss! And while I was doing my thing..." Undyne said with a slight flush of embarrassment, Susie didn't care too much.
"I was able to snag this!" Undyne said as she dug under her hair and pulled out a weird fruit.
That was...a Devil Fruit?! Those were rare, and she found one near the party? Someone must've died recently with that fruit, that made her a tad sad.
"Woah! How did you-?" Susie tried to ask her how but she was immediately silenced by her.
"Shh! Shh! If Muffet saw this, she'd eat this and die, and if Ralsei saw this, she'll nag me for hours. I'm entrusting you with what happens to this fruit!" Undyne said slowly handing her the red deformed fruit. It was shaped like a heart with a black stem that swirled into horns.
She honestly was flattered but also terrified, she didn't want to eat it and get a 'whack' ability and then lose the ability to swim. Half the crew was already Devil Fruit users. She would much rather stick to her mastered Soul abilities. She pocketed the fruit anyways.
"And also...I want to ask you if uh...you could...train Muffet and me...only for how to properly use our soul abilities and how to vastly use them like you." Undyne said rubbing the back of her head shyly. She hated asking for help but she had no choice.
"You mean you and Muffet had been doing the feats you've been doing off your base power?" Susie said in disbelief.
"Pretty much, Gehehe. You see, we have been relying on Ralsei to refuel ourselves with our soul energy and to fully use our souls, but I want to learn how to supply it naturally and get better and stronger with it...look..." Undyne held out her hand and her soul was displayed floating above her palm. It was a green heart symbol.
"I have a Kindness Soul, according to Ralsei, it has very low offensive capabilities and I'm essentially reduced to a healer...and my mom..." Undyne looked at Susie giving her an eye telling her to make sure you listen well.
Susie knew that she was touchy about her mom, this was her chance to finally get to know her new friend, although she had to say barely anything at all. She was always told that she spoke more with her body than mouth so maybe Undyne was just reading that.
"My mom was the Fleet Admiral before the one we have now...I ain't going to get into specifics but, she was the strongest Marine till this day, her strength was on par with the toughest of Emporers and even the King of The Pirates, W. D. Gaster. The thing was...she was friends with the Emporers and the Pirate King, until one day, she had to team up with W.D. Gaster to fight the other Emperors off from tearing apart the world. Needless to say, it was the Battle of Mt. Ebott. They won, but the thing was that the Navy eventually caught on to her slight alliance with the enemy and declared her a traitor, even though she was simultaneously the hero of the world..." Undyne said this before looking away from Susie and towards the forming cumulus clouds, it was going to rain again soon.
Undyne sighed.
Damn, her mother was Morial the Immortal? I've read about her a lot and looked up to her, now I get to meet her daughter. This is really what happened huh? Well as my duty as an archeologist, I have to be the knowledge bearer and put pieces together, that's my job. Susie thought. She was honestly super excited that she was talking to the next generation, Morial! Now her interest and faith in her crew spiked.
"Damn, what happened, did they evict her from her role?" Susie questioned, trying to hide her excitement.
Undyne shook her head.
"You see, they were planning on killing her with the Pirate King, however, she let the Pirate King leave the island in time while she stalled them...You're an archeologist, you told us how you've read for years in countless libraries...you know what a Buster Call is, right?" Undyne said giving her a cold and serious eye.
Susie gulped and felt a heave in her heart. She knew where this was headed, she nodded.
"...They ordered one on her, all the Admirals took place, and the Warlords. Even though she was weakened and exhausted from the battle, She managed to have enough Determination to fight till her last breath...Like a True Heroine...she was so much of a beast she managed to mortally wound one of the Admirals, gave the other three a decent scar, and she killed three out of the seven Warlords. 90% of the warships were sunk in the second battle of Mt. Ebott..." Undyne finished her story by looking at the sky as if she was looking at her mom.
Susie didn't know what to say, she cared tons more about her first commander now, but she didn't want to say anything wrong. She was horrible at sympathetic conversation.
"Sorry for weirding you out...what I'm trying to say is that I'm trying to reach a pinnacle of strength that my mom had and shoot farther than that. And I can't do that if I stay basic." Undyne said with a bit more hope in her voice and moxy than before.
Susie nodded.
"No man, you didn't weird me out, was just...a lot to take in. I'll train you and the cap' on soul usage, I promise! I want to get stronger too...so uh, in return...can you train me? Physically that is, I've seen the way you've been working out and it seems...intense." Susie tried finding the right balance between concerned, laid back, and excited.
Undyne gave a hearty laugh, her laugh was infectious, it was mostly associated as a manly laugh, but that's what made it funnier. Susie laughed too.
"Sure kid, I'll warn ya though, I have people puking on the first day!" Undyne said giving her archeologist a fist bump. They did have the same vibe, the difference was, Undyne had already worked out her demons.
Susie and her were almost the same height. A four-inch distance. So she was able to punch her on the arm without an awkward feel to it.
"I heard that you were a famous Navy Captain though, what happened?" Susie said trying to finish the missing piece she had her character.
Undyne just smiled and pointed at Muffet.
"That woman changed my life! For the better that is!" Undyne gave another hearty laugh.
This piqued Susie's curiosity, she had to get to the bottom of it, however, she would attempt talking to the captain last. She hadn't known what was up with Ralsei yet.
Thunder was heard, and then rain followed, not nearly as heavy as yesterday, but rain nonetheless. Ralsei and Muffet had decided to stop building for the time being and hide inside the dining room to escape the rain.
Fuhu ran out from the second floor and stayed playing in the rain excitedly. Susie and Undyne followed the other two crewmates into the dining room.
They were all soaking wet, the dining room seemed to be the coldest and most ventilated area of the ship. Muffet took it up to herself to pass the time they would spend in the dining room by making a batch of her spider cookies.
Everyone could swear that her pastries could end wars and solve world peace.
They all sat at the huge dining table in the middle of the room, Susie still tried to hide her Devil Fruit from Ralsei as she approached her. It was her and Ralsei sitting together with Undyne on the other side. She always seems to sit next to the captain.
"Oh hey, Susie! Are you ready for Muffet's cookies!" Ralsei said chirpingly, she seemed to like the cookies. Susie gave an awkward smile.
"Oh uh, hi. Say uh...tell me uh...about yourself...?" That came off so much more embarrassing than she hoped it would, if she could crawl under a pit and rot, she would.
Ralsei felt no ill will against her and went on.
"What you mean?" Ralsei questioned.
"Oh um...what's your backstory I guess..." Susie felt a little weird wording it like that, but that was truly what she was looking for, no need for beating around the bush.
Undyne and Muffet looked at her, Muffet turned back to her baking, however, she kept her ears open for this conversation.
Truth was, Ralsei never really spoke about her past before.
Ralsei sighed.
"I just lived a normal life in the North Blue...Did my school work, was a scholar, studied at a University, my parent supported me. I used the money I got from graduating to get this ship and do research abroad." Ralsei was tapping her chin trying to think for anything else there was.
"If you were looking for a sad back story, there isn't any. My life isn't that exciting...before I met you guys that is, my life and my research have skyrocketed because of this wild journey, I'm learning more about soul energy and how to be more courageous!" Ralsei said while pacing her focus between Undyne and Muffet. They both laughed at her praise.
Susie jotted all of it down in her brain, she figured she was a woman dedicated to her craft.
Ralsei turned to her, Susie jumped in shock.
"If you want to know more, I'm actually glad you've joined the team! You have such a rare and unique soul of Justice, and your mastery of it has brought my research to new light...however, due to the lack of materials, I can't conduct anything too grand. The matter is, you've been a pleasure to have around, another clear-headed and independent person!" There was something about Ralsei's words that made her heart jump.
Susie secretly loved getting complimented, mostly because she never got any. However, she hated showing her emotions more.
"Uh, t-thanks or whatever...however...what made you want to major in life energy?" Susie questioned, she was proudly good at getting what she wanted out of people. Guess all those times reading in the crime and mystery genre helped her knit pick words when questioning someone.
Ralsei seemed to notice that and sighed.
"Because...Asriel Dremurr used to tell me that I was just an average goat person...the truth is...with goat people they always become successful in something their parents did and then exceed it. The problem with that I was incredibly handicapped-" Ralsei tried to explain herself before Undyne cut her off.
"Asriel Dremurr?! You mean- Son of Toriel? The son to the woman who is the leader of the Revolutionary Army?!" Undyne was now leaning over the table trying to fully hear Ralsei speak.
"Y-yea. I and him grew up in the same neighborhood, went to the same classes together, however, me and him were complete opposites in the fields we took. We are distant cousins..." Ralsei uttered weakly.
Everyone in the room was still. Trying to process what she said. Why didn't she mention this before?
Susie was even more amazed at her newfound crew, she had to set sail with her idol's daughter, the distant cousin of a Warlord and leader of the Revolutionary Army, now all she had to do was figure out the captain.
Susie slowly felt herself get more comfortable.
Then, Susie was hit with a massive beam of realization...wait.
Wait.
Wait!
WAIT!
Susie snapped her head aggressively towards Ralsei with eyes of both promise and hatred.
"Wait! Ralsei! If you grew up, with Asriel...enough to get through college with him. You lived on the same block. Kris...was the little brother of Asriel...not by blood, but they were stepbrothers! Does that mean that you..." Susie gave Ralsei eyes of passion. Undyne was amazed, Kris had told her he was the adopted son of Toriel, but she hadn't even made the connection to the others in the family. That kid was more impressive than they thought.
Muffet heard this and grinned, she knew that if they did manage to get back Kris, he would be a great addition, even greater than she imagined. She had put the tray of cookies and muffins in the oven and sat down while the oven cooked the pastries.
Ralsei sighed.
"Yeah...I knew Kris when he was a little kid, I used to tutor him, that was why he saved me hastily back in the tree and talked to me as if he was kinda cool with me. I didn't know it was him until after we left the tree, but I couldn't find a good time to talk to him..." Ralsei felt as if she had done her archeologist an injustice...ironically.
However, Ralsei was stopped in her tracks, with a hug from her. Susie hated hugging. But she felt like she needed to.
Susie now knew that she could always rely on Ralsei for any information regarding her lost friend, she was happy someone was there to atleast know somewhat of the history they had.
Ralsei slowly and begrudgingly held back, she was startled by this.
Susie detached the hug and gazed at her.
"Enough of that, I assume Asriel bullied you because of your field of work for so long, that you wanted to exceed and make a groundbreaking discovery and outshine him?" Susie said with confidence, with her expert knowledge of people's emotions.
Ralsei nodded.
"You nailed it, trying to show that guy who the real dork is!" Ralsei said punching her fist together and it making a squeaky toy sound.
Undyne and Muffet laughed at that.
That was all Susie needed to know.
Now it was her captain, what secrets did she keep in.
Muffet seemed to know exactly what her next words were going to be, as she stared into Susie's eyes with knowing eyes and a shit-eating grin that meant that she knew that she knew.
Huh? The captain also possesses the ability to gauge someone's character based on eye contact. A master of mind games, is she secretly playing everyone for a fool about how smart she is? Susie thought to herself.
Muffet laughed.
"Don't get so worked up dearie~ I don't bite." Muffet giggled.
"Actually! She does!" Undyne said as she pointed to a fanged bit mark on her bicep.
"That was because you poked my eyes! You had it coming!" Muffet said crossing her three sets of arms and facing her first mate.
Susie whispered to Ralsei.
"What happened?" Susie genuinely wanted to know.
Ralsei filled her in.
"Every day, they spar early in the morning, it's their most effective way of training. They are true monsters in combat." Ralsei stared at her two other crew members with eyes of amazement.
Susie chuckled, it started turning into an uproar of laughter.
Everyone looked at her puzzled.
"What happened dearie~?" Muffet questioned her archeologist.
"Hehehe, nothing nothing, I just needed to know something before proceeding with my plan. Which called for a change of plans..." Susie said getting up.
Muffet looked into her eyes with her own five eyes and smiled. She played along with her.
"And what may that be?" Muffet coyly said.
Susie chuckled.
"My goal today was to get to know my crewmates on a deeper level, I was going to straight-up ask you, but I see now that I won't get much if I do it that way." Susie showed her teeth again, Muffet got excited, really excited.
"Hohoho~ now you're getting it! You're catching on around here!" Muffet said uncharacteristically, Undyne and Ralsei looked at her weirdly.
"I challenge you to a spar captain! Let's continue where we left off. I feel like I can't truly call you captain if I'm the strongest one!" Susie said with her left eye brimming with Justice.
Ralsei was going to make a comment but Undyne stopped her.
"This is resolve between Captain and mate, we mustn't interfere...and plus, this is how 'M' and I got along and met." Undyne gave her own two cents on the situation.
Muffet put on her hat, which meant that she was serious. In spars with Undyne, she never wore the hat until the match was decided. In a way, the hat allowed her to surpass her limits.
Her five spider eyes were brimming with Perseverance.
"Let's see dearie~ am I worth my title? I'm assuming you plan to know more about me from the passion of our fight?" Muffet said coyly
"Precisely. Sorry if that's a hassle for you." Susie coyly remarked, both of them baring their teeth like how a predator would. Susie realized now that she resembled everyone in the crew in different aspects.
When she was being reasonable about something, she resembled Ralsei, she approached situations and tasks like how Undyne would, and when fighting her style and ferocity mirrored Muffet.
"Don't be sorry, I would've preferred it this way. A battle conceived off chivalry and animalistic instinct, just my style!" Muffet said as she slowly walked out, pulling down on her web silk glove-casts.
Fuhu ran in through the open door and landed on Ralsei's lap.
"Step outside when you're ready, battle starts once you draw your weapon," Muffet spoke with such unprecedented authority and power that the others hadn't known she had in her.
Undyne and Ralsei knew that she was just setting the stage for Susie, Muffet naturally is super laid back, however, the fact that she did it so cleanly kept them wondering.
What was she so confident about?
"Oh and Ralsei, tend to the pastries, I don't want them to overheat." Muffet went back to her base soft tone.
In Muffet's mind, she knew she had to be on her guard around Susie, for some reason, she always felt like Susie was hiding something big, she could never find out what. She could usually read other people just by looking into their eyes, but with Susie, she saw nothing but screams of agony.
She got lucky and acting confidently vague whenever Susie tried to figure her out so that always seemed she was one step ahead. Muffet, when she closed the door behind her, wiped her forehead in relief.
It was still raining.
I have to act like her true superior, if not, then she'll try and overrule me. Susie doesn't seem like the type to completely follow me, atleast not now. Undyne didn't seem like the type either, I have to win this fight to assert myself as captain. I can't falter in my title! Muffet thought to herself.
Muffet knew that Susie was a tough cookie to crack, she did seem to want to join the crew and actively try to fit in. However, the true way of initiation wasn't by hearing everyone's story and calling it even.
As captain, she is the linchpin of the entire crew, everything runs through her, Susie knows this.
Undyne and Ralsei had some form of a run-in with her that made them value their captain as a captain. However, Susie hasn't, she lacked respect towards her.
Muffet chuckled to herself.
Susie was a risky but great addition, for a crew of just four people, the hierarchy of power was easy to understand but easy to break. Muffet had to also keep her game up and her strength higher. In order to pursue her dream, the dream she and Frisk followed, she had to prove to be strong enough to handle the hardships of the sea.
This was one of them.
Susie was in the dining room still, getting ready. Fuhu ran to her and opened its mouth. It was her war hammer. Susie petted the cupcake spider and hoisted it over her shoulders.
Undyne called out to her while Ralsei was respectively watching the pastries as her captain instructed. Susie turned around, confused as to why Undyne would stop her.
"I know why Muffet is eagerly doing this, but hey, giving you any form of advice on fighting her is unfair and a disrespect to the captain...Don't get me, wrong kid, I value you, but I value my captain a lot more. No matter the outcome of the fight, I want to see you show more respect to our captain. As your first commander, a higher-up, if I see you falter in your loyalty or cause a frown on her always smiling face..." Undyne gave her a stare with her eye and flipped open the eye patch, revealing her socket. A dot of green was radiating through it as she slammed a bident on the ground to cause intimidation.
"I'll personally see you out myself, friend or not. Don't try and read people too much...especially if you don't know what they've been through...isn't that a bad reflection of your Justice?" Undyne said as she dematerialized her bident and flipped back down her eyepatch. She looked down at the ground away from Susie.
Susie was caught off guard by this...Undyne was right. Trying to get into everyone's business just to cause a fight with the captain and disturb the vibe of the ship was an unjust thing to do for the people who happily took her in and promised to help her see her dreams.
Her death threat was serious though, whatever those two have been through or atleast shared, has made her so loyal to her captain...such seriousness for a ship that lacks it. It was like a family, always getting at each other and messing around until the time came and everyone pitched in and helped each other.
This was a field of hopes and dreams. She had felt silly to assume otherwise about her crewmates...no, friends.
Susie had fully gotten the true nature of the ship...and quite frankly...she adored the ship and the atmosphere. She always wanted a relationship like this, a family of friends.
Susie chuckled.
"Ease down, captain Muffet has my respect...and so do you Ms. Undyne the Undying!" Susie said with wholehearted respect towards her friends.
Undyne smiled and chuckled.
"That's the spirit...you're a good kid, I know it...just don't feel the need to figure out everything to establish dominance, atleast with us. It won't get you anywhere...I can call off the fight you know." Undyne gave Susie full assurance.
Susie scoffed.
"You kidding? It'd be disrespect to the captain if I deny her of a fight, I know how much she's been aching for a battle." Susie said wholesomely for once.
Undyne gave her a thumbs up.
"That's the spirit! Now, lose with pride! With Muffet, it doesn't sting after the first five losses, Gehehe!" Undyne shook her head in self-pity while grinning happily.
Did she just...openly say she had lost plenty of times? Her...? Heh! This crew really is something else, it's infectious! And honestly ...
Susie opened the door and saw Muffet waiting for her outside sitting on a throne of her web. She even made herself a silk warrior outfit, granted, it looked silly in the rain. They both knew that.
I'm glad my path has led me here...thank you, Kris...I will fight happily for my captain just so you can experience this heaven too...this is what we fought so hard for!
"So? Got all this set up for me? In flattered!" Susie said brandishing her weapon, initiating the fight.
"Hohoho~ I'm surprised you actually walked out, you really are just like Undyne. The difference is, you still feel the need to hold back your emotions dearie~ Why is that?" Muffet crossed her legs and interlocked her fingers like she was a therapist.
"I don't know, years of pent-up aggression towards myself? Maybe because I couldn't really trust anyone besides Kris." Susie reasoned with her captain. By her telling Muffet this, she was already letting herself loose, she normally wouldn't openly admit that.
Muffet laughed hysterically at Susie's character, it made her happy she had caught on so fast. She still loved playing coy with her, she was like Undyne, but instead of clashing physically, they clashed verbally.
"Kris isn't here anymore! What will you plan to do now?" Muffet quizzed her archeologist, looking for one specific answer.
"Heh! I plan on trusting my captain and my new friends on the ship I would soon call my home if that's alright with you!" Susie answered. Muffet was pleased. Really pleased.
Muffet got off her throne and slit back her wet hair so that her fifth eye was visible, it was glowing purple.
"Very good! As a prize, I'll let you know three things about me before we begin, since I'm still technically a stranger to you...One, I'm the only Spider-Person left on the planet. Two, my family consist of two pact brothers and Frisk D. Reemurr, my brothers being Sans the second in command of the Revolutionary army, and Papyrus Snowdin. Three, my dreams and goals are to become Queen of The Pirates and gain enough money from being the Queen to buy a continent for any other spider kin that is in hiding...if you wish to know more, you'll have to force em out of me, huehuehue~" Muffet proudly announced.
Susie truly gained the respect of everyone on the ship, all their families were major hotshots that she was fans of or highly respected already.
"Wouldn't have it any other way captain!" Susie and Muffet ran at each other and winded their attacks.
The strike of lighting in the rain was the bell.
