Reaching the next floor, Bonbon happily walked through the new floor of Hotland. Until her nose caught a sweet scent coming from a small cute stand. Curious, she drew closer towards the stand which was guarded by a young spider woman.
"Flowey! She's selling desserts!!" She proclaimed as she bounced on the balls of her feet. But Flowey was to busy hiding his face to pay any attention to her. With a bounce in her step, she tried to reach over the stand to have a better look.
"Uhuhu, what a tiny little customer I see." Reaching over with one of her many arms, Muffet took hold of Bonbon's hoodie, lifting her up to her eye level. "Welcome to our parlor, dearie~" Bonbon smile grew as she spun around slowly as she stared at all the pastries below her. Muffet stopped her spinning by placing a finger gently underneath Bonbon's chin. "You seem very interested in our spider pastries, you know all proceeds go to real spiders~" Bonbon giggled as she digged into her pocket.
"You IDIOT!! Don't you see the prices on these things! You don't have that kind of money anymore!!"
"Oh shush you," said Muffet to Flowey before turning her attention towards Bonbon, "Don't listen to him dearie, buy as much as you want." Bonbon becoming excited of the thought of the many treats she would take home, was soon deflated by the small amount of gold she has gathered so far. Muffet seeing Bonbon slowly shake her head with tears in her eyes, she slowly lowered her down to the ground. Ignoring the broke human, she looked elsewhere for any potential customers. Bonbon, hanging her head low, made her way towards the next room.
Feeling down, she decided to give Sans a call. Hoping that being his puny self, he could cheer her up.
"Sans?"
"heya munchkin, sounding pretty defeated there. are you okay?"
"I couldn't buy anything from the spider bake sale." Bonbon whimpered.
"yeah, muffet's one tough 'cookie'. especially on her weekly donation sales. you'll 'knead' alot of 'dough' for those treats. i'll take ya when she sells them at a lower price howzabout it?" Sans smiled grew wider and wider at every pun he said as he heard Bonbon's laughter grow louder and louder over the receiver.
"Okay! I'll be 'bready' when it's time to 'roll'. One 'cannoli' hope we don't 'loaf' around before she runs out. Maybe we'll 'turnover' a new leaf and make it here by morning. But thinking about it, it seems to 'scone' to change." Sans couldn't help but bellow out his laughter.
"munchkin, thanks for the laugh. if ya still feeling down, i'll be glad to take you home. hear that paps and undyne are cooking quiet a storm for ya." Bonbon shook her head vigorously that Flowey had to wrap his thin vines tightly around her head to stop himself from falling.
"Not yet! I'm still not done with my adventure!"
"sigh, alright. just a couple of hours more, okay?"
"Don't worry, I'll be home before dinner!"
"cya later, munchkin."
"Hee hee, bye bye Sans."
Feeling better, she continued her journey. Only to stop mid step for her phone began to ring. Hitting the answer button, the screen soon displayed Alphys' face. Who was just checking in on her if she was okay and if she ever needed any help that she could call her at anytime. Bonbon tipped her head to the side as she wondered how was she supposed to call her if she didn't know her number and her new phone didn't record any numbers from incoming calls either.
"Actually, wait. I have a better idea! Let's be friends on UnderNet! Then you can just ping me when you need help!" Bonbon glared at her phone as Flowey's anger steamed through the pot from where he hid. "Wait! We're already friends, aren't we? I signed you up, didn't I? You've been reading my post the whole time...we'll! I hope you agree with me! About Mew Mew 2!"
"I. Can't. Read." Bonbon let out a sigh, before putting away her phone. Closing her eyes, she began to shake before bursting out with a large roar. Clenching her small fist she could feel herself fill with determinaton. "This is it! When I go home. Sans and Papy will teach me to read!!" With vigor in her stride, she made her way through the room. Or she would like to except Alphys was calling her once more.
"Um... this um, doesn't have anything to do with guiding you...but, uhh, hey, would you want to watch a human TV show together? It's called, um M...Mew Mew Kissy Cutie..."
"Yes!!" Bonbon's eyes glisten as she swayed back and forth. Not listening to Alphys as she stuttered on, for she was to busy dreaming. "Hee...heee..anime~" Flowey hearing Alphys hanging up, popped his head from under his dirt. Noticing that Bonbon was still daydreaming, he began patting her cheek with his vine.
"Hey idiot! Snap out of it!"
"Eh?" She said as she blinked out of her dreamy state.
"Weren't you raving about learning to read? You won't have time to hang out with that nerd."
"There's always time for anime! I'll learn to read another day."
"Idiot." Walking along, Bonbon spotted another star. As she placed her hand ontop of it, Flowey was getting a shiver down his stem. Glancing around, he soon spotted a strand of spiderweb. "Brat! Let's find another way through."
"Why?" Ignoring his plea, Bonbon continued to walk. Feeling herself struggling to pass, she looked down and found that her feet were getting covered in spiderwebs the more she tried to walk forward.
"Ahuhuhu... Did you hear what they said? They said a human wearing a purple hoodie will come through." Bonbon looked around for the source of the mysterious voice, but only saw the many spiders crawling away.
"Ooh~ spooky."
"I heard that she hate spiders."
"But I like spiders." Bonbon whispered.
"I heard that she love to stomp on them. I heard that she likes to tear their legs off."
"Oh, they must be talking about another human, right Flowey?...Flowey?" He didn't respond for he had already retreated back inside his pot. Walking further and further inside the spider den, Bonbon had found herself unable to move. The spiderweb held her feet flat against the floor. "Ack! I'm stuck! Neggggghghhh..." try as she might she couldn't move. Tired from trying to pull her feet free, she soon saw a figure in the darkness of the room. Fear growing inside, she tried to back away but to no avail.
Soon the figure in the shadow came in to the light. Seeing that it was Muffet sitting on her web-like throne, she let out a sigh.
"Hello Muffet!" Bonbon said with a huge smile as she waved. Muffet glared curiously at the small human. For she showed no sign of fear.
"...I heard, she's awfully stingy with their money."
"She doesn't sound too nice. So, who are you talking about?" Bonbon question. Muffet glared at Bonbon more intensity, trying to see past whatever facade she was creating.
"Ahuhuhu...you think your taste is too refine for our pastries don't you, dearie." Bonbon blinked a bit at the word taste.
"My...taste?" Bonbon looked down at her small hands.
"Ahuhuhu...I disagree with that notion. I think your taste, is exactly what this batch needs!" Bonbon licked her hand and then smacked her lips bit before perking up.
"Ooh~ you're gonna make a ketchup flavored pastry!" She said as her soul was being pulled out. "But won't it be a bit meaty?...and boney...and bloody?" She whispered the last part as spiders began to surround her. "I guess there is such things as meat pies. I don't like meat pies." Bonbon crossed her arms. Distracted by her wondering thoughts, Muffet slowly rose above her. Holding a purple glowing teapot over Bonbon had caught her attention.
"Don't look so blue dearie~ "
"Eh?" Muffet poured the content from the magical pot over Bonbon, turning her soul purple.
"I think purple is a better look on you! Ahuhuhu~" the purple magic dissolved the spiderweb around Bonbon's feet. Only in resulting her in being surrounded by walls of purple glowing spiderweb. "Why so pale? You should be proud~"
"Hee hee, I'm always pale." She giggled as she saw a couple of spiders crawling down the webs.
"Proud that you're going to make a delicious cake. Ahuhuhuhu~"
"Ooh~ hee hee, you must of seen Mettaton's cooking show!" Seeing random spiders start to fling donuts at her and no room to dodge, she decided climb the magical spider webs.
"Your soul is going to make every spider very happy." Muffet snickered as she watched Bonbon evade her spiders and flying treats. "Oh, how rude of me! I almost forgot to introduce you to my pet~"
"*huff huff, you have pet?!"
"Its breakfast time, isn't it?" Bonbon shut her mouth shut as to not to tell her that it was already past lunch time. "Have fun, you two~" Bonbon raised her eyebrow in confusion as she saw all the spiders scampering off. Soon the room began to shake causing Bonbon to grab a tight hold onto the magical web. Hearing a loud roar, she looked down and noticed a large muffin with bitty eyes with it's tongue hanging out.
"Oh...cute!" But before she could let go of her hold on the spider web to launch herself towards the muffin creature to give it a hug, the muffin-like spider began chomping it's large mouth as it began to climb towards her. "Eeek!" Bonbon burst into gear, trying to climb to the top of the spiderweb. Only to have Muffet string more web for her to climb. After a short moment, the large muffin retreated, leaving Bonbon some time to catch her breath.
"The person who warned us about you, offered us a lot of money for your soul. They had such a sweet smile~ and...ahuhuhu~ it's strange, but I swore I saw them in the shadows...changing shape?" An army of spiders began to crawl near her, some even throwing boomerang croissants at her now. Tired and slightly dizzy, she found herself tangling in the magical purple web.
"Ooh..*huff *...Flowey has a sweet smile! But I don't think he can change shape...hmm..." Round after round, Bonbon had to escape the chomps from Muffet's muffin pet all the while dodging the scattering spiders.
Laying ontop of her muffin pet, Muffet let out a small chuckle as she saw Bonbon unable to move any longer, for she was now completely encased like a cocoon inside the spiderweb. "You're still alive? Oh, my pet~ looks like it's time for dessert~" Bonbon struggled to free her mouth and hands.
"Ooh, dessert! Do you have tea?" Muffet perked up as she sat up ontop of her pet.
"Ahuhuhu, I always have tea on hand."
"Yay!" Bonbon squealed, as she digged into her pocket for a special donut she was saving for the occasion. While Muffet was handing over a cup of tea towards Bonbon, she noticed the small spider donut.
"Huh, where did you get that?"
"My donut?"
"Did you steal it?"
"Mommy says stealing is wrong. Unless you have sticky hand syndrome like my aunt."
"Then you must have wronged your mother. Now my pet, it's time to show what we do with thieves!"
"I don't steal! I bought my donut! So it's mine!" Before Muffet could give her pet the cue to chomp Bonbon's small form, a small spider carrying a telegram from The Ruins came scurrying by.
"What? They're saying that they saw you, and you helped donate to their cause!"
"Really!?" Bonbon exclaimed as she munched on her donut.
"Oh my, this has all been a big misunderstanding. I thought you were someone that hated spiders~"
"*munch munch* *sip, I don't hate spiders. But I think my kitty might." Bonbon handed over the empty tea cup to one of the many spiders that have climbed over her cocoon. Muffet petted her chubby cheeks before realising her from her web.
"I'll make it up to you~ You can come back here any time. And, for no charge at all, I'll wrap you up and let you play with my pet again!"
"Really!" Shouted Bonbon with joy as Muffet lowered her safely back to the ground. "Can he not try to eat me the next time I come back?"
"Ahuhuhu, of course dearie~ I'll spare you now~" Bonbon's soul returned back to its original red color as it sunk back into her chest. "That was fun~ see you again, dearie."
"Bye bye Muffet!" Waved Bonbon as she skipped away from the spider den. Out of the clear, Flowey creeped out of the pot to check that the area was spider free. "Welcome back Flowey."
"That took too long!"
"Sorry."
"Sigh, you really have no sense of self preservation do ya."
"Hmm? What's that...oooh!" On the wall, she spotted a picture of Mettaton under a spotlight. "Flowey! What does the poster say!"
"Something about a performance or something."
"Oooh! I wanna see!"
"You idiot! It's probably another lame attempt to get your soul."
"...so? When do you think the performance is going to start!"
"You idiotic Brat! That's what I mean about having no self-preservation! Just look at what you did just to get a stupid glass of water, you could have been blown up for all you know!" Flowey huffed as he looked at Bonbon's face.
"Silly Flowey. Who cares about blowing up. I promised I'd get you water, and I did." Flowey huffed before looking away. Bonbon glanced at the poster for a while before patting on the wall. Following the wall that led out towards the stage, she found a small space behind the cardboard scenery. Squeezing behind it, she found a small box. Opening said box, she found that it was filled with a clutter of different costumes. "Hee hee, look Flowey! There's so many to choose from!" Bonbon placed Flowey down on the ground and started rummaging through. Finding a princely costume, she slipped it over her hoodie. Finishing with tying the sash, she spuned around to show Flowey her new look. "Look Flowey! I feel so princely!"
"Something is really wrong with you."
"Hee hee!" Happy about her new look, she spuned across the stage. When she reached the middle, a soft melody began to play.
"Oh? That human. Could it be?" Hearing a metallic voice, she turned towards a set of stairs that led to an opening near the top of the cardboard scene. "My one true love?"
"Mettaton!" She whispered as she spotted him. "He looks like a princess!" She gushed as Mettaton rolled down the stairs with his blue dress flowing around him.
"Oh my love..." sang Mettaton along with the melody. "Please run away~" He picked Bonbon up and held her close to him. "Monsters King~ Forbids your stay~ Human must~" with a dramatic swing of his metallic arm, he gazed far to the distance. "Live far apart~ Even if~ it breaks my heart~" Dropping her to the ground, he placed his hands over the top of his dress. To where his soul layed. "They'll put you~ in the dungeon~"
Mettaton's voice rang gracefully across the stage and passed the audience. His voice, ever so faintly, could even be heard through the theater doors. Where a certain skeleton was waiting with tickets in his hands.
"SANS, BY ANY CHANCE DO YOU KNOW WHERE OUR TINY HUMAN IS?"
"last i heard, she was trying to buy something from muffet, why?"
"WELL, AS UNDYNE AND I HAVE FINISHED PREPARING THE EXTRA SPECIAL MEAL FOR HER, I REMEMBERED THAT I HAD BOUGHT TWO SPECIAL TICKETS TO METTATON'S SHOW!"
"ugh, that guy. wait, i thought you hated hotland. with all its non-spike traps."
"I DO. WHICH IS WHY I'M GLAD I DON'T LIVE HERE. BUT I WANTED TO SHOW HER HIS NEW PERFORMANCE SEEING HOW SHE LOVES WATCHING HIS SHOWS WITH ME."
"have you tried calling her?"
"I DID THAT ALREADY BUT SHE WON'T PICK UP!"
"maybe you 'burned' her phone from calling her so much."
"SANS! I DID NOT CALL HER ALL THAT MUCH."
"her phone probably got too 'hot' from the constant 'warming' sentiments sent by her dear papy."
"SANS NO!"
"sans yes!
"SAAANS!"
"bro, you gotta remember that we sorta forgot to charge the munchkin's phone. now try to remember all the times you chatted with her over that thing since you got it."
"UHHH..." Papyrus face blanked as his mind went back to the many calls they had made.

"bro...paps...paps? you still there? i keep hearing a long noise coming from your end."
"UHHH...UHHHH..."
The sound of a dramatic 'oh no' falling down a hole and the sound of clapping could be heard through the receiver. "and i think the show is over." Clearing his non existent throat, Papyrus regained his composure.
"SANS. GO FIND THE TINY HUMAN, IT'S GETTING LATE!"
"don't need to 'ash' twice. i'm already on it."
Having the floor open up from below her feet, Bonbon placed her hand over her forhead, "Goodbye my love!" She said before falling down. "Oh nooooo!" She dramatically screamed. Mettaton waved her goodbye before tossing Flowey down with her. Falling down, she could spot a couple of Mettaton's MTT bots shooting air beneath her, causing her fall to take a longer turn then expected. "He found you!?"
"Yeah no KIDDING!!"
"Flowey..."
"WHAT!!?"
"Why am I falling again?"
"You IDIOT! That ROBOT threw you down the stupid dungeon!!"
"But where did my costume go?"
"You serious!!" Turning around in mid fall, Bonbon soon saw the floor speeding closer towards her.
"I don't like falling!!!"
"NO SH-" Bonbon closed her eyes shut as the ground grew closer. Landing with an oof, Bonbon noticed that she had landed ontop of a small pillow. Getting off, Mettaton tossed the small pillow off towards the lava that surrounded them.
"Oh no! Whatever shall I do? My love has been cast away into the dungen. A dungen with a puzzle so dastardly, my paramour will surely perish!" Bonbon turned around dramatically with her hand over her forehead.
"What can the stunning robot monster do to save this poor miserable human!" Mettaton posed in shock infront of his MTT bots.
"O, heavens have mercy! The horrible colored title maze!"
"Nuuuuuu! Not the maze!" Bonbon screamed as she fell down to her knees. Mettaton showed all his viewers the maze that Papyrus once tired to use once but failed to accomplish. Unfortunately for Bonbon, Mettaton stooped midway in his explaining of how the puzzle worked. Leaving Bonbon to wreck her memory apart on trying to remember what each color did. But seeing how she barely remembered what she did this morning, it didn't accomplish much.
"Oh, and you better hurry because if you don't get through in 30 seconds." A wall of fire to the left and right of her turned on, "you'll be incinerated by these jets of fire!! Ahahahahahahahahaha...ha...ha...My poor love! I'm so filled with grief, I... *cough*" Mettaton stopped at mid sentence as Bonbon stared at her with her large puppy dog eyes. "Good luck, darling!"
Bonbon took a deep breath before jumping right into the maze. In her mind she had imagine of how graceful she would look as she crossed it, jumping and sliding away from danger. Except in reality, she fell for each and every trap the maze had for her. She ran against impassable walls, shocked multiple times, slipped and slid against orange scented floors and fell into water filled with guppies disguised as piranhas. Hearing the timer go off, Mettaton grabbed the flailing Bonbon out of the water and gently placed her ontop of a pink tile.
"Oooooh, I'm so sorry! Looks like you're out of time!!!" He announced as he petted her head, "Here comes the flames darling! They're closing in!" Closer and closer they got, while Bonbon sat slumped on the ground. With droopy eyes she glanced at the flames as they got closer. Mettaton noticing that the flames weren't stopping, he hit the emergency button, causing them to come to a hault. Giving Alphys enough time to 'hack' into the fire walls. "Oh no! How could this happened??? Foiled again by the brilliant Doctor Alphys!!" Mettaton proclaimed as he helped Bonbon stand on her feet.
"That's right! Come on Mettaton, give up already. You'll never be able to defeat us...Not as long as we were work together! Your puzzle's over..." blared Alphys voice through the speakers provided by the MTT bots, "Now go home and leave us alone!" Mettaton noticing Bonbon looking up at him with sad filled eyes, he lowered himself towards her.
"You're not really leaving ...are you?" Mettaton pinched her cheeks before whispering a small no.
"Don't worry darling, we're not finished yet." Clearing his voice, he continued on with the script. "Puzzle? Over? Alphys darling, what are you talking about?" Apparently Bonbon had walked across several green tiles. Which rings out a sound, meaning that she had to face a monster if she wished to continue and the monster being him. "This is it, darling say goodbye!" Mettaton said as he pulled out her soul.
"Okay! Bye bye Mettaton! Can we play again tomorrow?" Mettaton coughed a bit before giving a small nod as he waited for her phone to ring. Hearing her phone go off, she picked it up. Revealing Alphys' face on the screen, she told Bonbon of one last features she had installed in her phone. A special button, that when pressed will shoot off a magical bullet that can defeat Mettaton. Upon hearing this, Bonbon's eyes began to tear up at the thought of hurting her new friend. But Mettaton placed a finger against his speaker, symbolizing his mouth, telling her that it was okay.
Having his permission, she pressed the small yellow button that resonated with his body. Her cellphone soon gave off a small yellow glow that spread through out her body. As soon as the glow had reached her soul, her soul had started to suck up all the magic that emmited from both the phone and Mettaton. Her soul turning into a yellow hue, it began to turn upside-down.
"Now! Use your s-soul!" Bonbon gently placed her small finger against her soul, releasing small blast of light that bounced off of Mettaton's metallic body.
"Oh ooooh Oooooh! You've defeated me! How can this be, you were stronger than I thought, etc...bye!" Bonbon waved as she watched Mettaton fly off, followed by his small group of MTT bots. Alphys congratulated Bonbon on her success.
"Alphys thank you!"
"What? Oh no...I mean...you.."
"I had so much fun today! But it's getting late and I have to go home now."
"Wait...w-what? H-home? I thought you were..."
"Can I come over tomorrow and play some more?"
"R-really? S-ure...I mean of course! I...I would really like that.if you don't mind." Bonbon giggled softly as she saw Alphys expression. "Umm, h-h-hey, this might sound strange but..." Alphys told Bonbon of how before she fell into the underground, that she didn't really liked herself. How she always thought she was a screw up. She still thought she was one, especially on the many close call Bonbon had under her watch. But Bonbon never judge her, never said it was her fault. How she always smiled at her as of she was having the best time of her life. "S...so, thank you. Um...go rest up and... I'll see you tomorrow..." *click* During Alphys small confession, Bonbon had turned awfully quiet.

《That's enough...don't listen to anyone who thinks you aren't strong. As long as you stay determined, you can do whatever you put your mind to》
"HEY! Brat, snap out of it! Are you just going to stand there like an idiot, or are you going to hurry it up and go aleady?" Bonbon let out a small giggle.
"That's nice. I thought you were gone." She whispered. Flowey glared at Bonbon as she whispered to no one.
"Are you hearing things again?"
"Hee hee, I'm ok..."
"Right..."Flowey huffed before retreating back inside his pot. Bonbon let out a yawn before walking out of the dungeon. In her sleepy daze she managed to stumble against something fairly sturdy.
"sleepwalking there, munchkin?"
"Ehh?" Bonbon struggled to look up and found that she was standing infront of Sans. "He...hee...Sans~"
"saw that it was getting late, so I decided to fetch ya. you don't want paps to lose his head right?" Bonbon stared at Sans with her watery eyes heavy with sleep, with her hands stretched out towards him. Tired and exhausted from her journey, all she could muster to say where a series of coos. Begging him to hold her. Sans clutched over his jacket where his soul was being squeezed by her cuteness. Feeling his skull warm up, he bend down and held her small body close to his own. "munchkin...what are doing to me..."
"Hmm...?" Bonbon mumbled as she snuggled closer into his jacket.
"nothing. just don't go sleeping to deeply on me, kay? last time you feel asleep without eating dinner, you ended up chewing on paps' scarf in your sleep."
"*yawn* okayyyy~"
"atta girl." He whispered as he patted her back before shortcutting home.
