It was the day that everyone was to go save red, I woke early so I could make breakfast for everyone. I had four pairs of magic hands, one set was cooking some bacon and sausage, while another pair was making French toast, and waffles, a third pair was baking coffee cake muffins, while the fourth was setting the table, as I was making home fries. The souls were pulsing in time to the song I was humming.
"oh would you like mommy to sing? " I asked as they pulsed in response.
"it's raining tacos
From out of the sky
Tacos
No need to ask why
Just open your
Mouth and close
Your eyes
It's raining tacos. "I started to sing after turning the music on.
"it's raining tacos
Out on the streets
Tacos
All you can eat
Lettuce and shells
Cheese and meat
It's raining tacos. " I started to dance as the hands put the food onto plates.
"yum yum
Yumity yum
It's like a dreeeeeeeeeeam!!!
Yum yum
Yumity yum
Bring your sour cre-e-e-eam "I sang as I finished the home fries putting them into a bowl, followed by placing them on the table.
"shells

"it's raining tacos
Oooooooo
Raining tacos
Oooooooo
Raining tacos
Oooooooo
It's raining tacos. "Steve, and Bucky had just walked in from their morning run along with, undyne, pap's, crooks, fell, black and blue.
"it's raining tacos
Oooooooo
Raining tacos
Oooooooo
Raining tacos
(Shell meats lettuce cheese )
Oooooooo
It's raining tacos
(shell meat ch-ch-cheese )
It's raining tacos. " I finished singing as I poured the coffee and some hot water for tea and hot cocoa into a carafe, only to jump in surprise at the sound of applause.
"got to say little bones, that's the one thing I missed while you were gone. "Bucky said as he clapped me on the back.
"fuhuhuhu that was good punk. "undyne said as she wrapped me in a headlock and gave me a noogie, while the others agreed.
"hey um... Can you guys do me a favor and wake the others up? "I asked as gaster walked into the dining room, while I placed the carafes in the middle of the table.
"ΩҒ CΩURSΣ ШΣ ШILL ШΔҜΣ THΣ ΩTHΣRS. "blue said as he, and the others went to go wake everybody up.
I had sent the magic hands to the covered plates, only for gaster to place a hand on my shoulder before saying, "you cooked, allow me to serve. "
"OK dad. Whew... I forgot how hard it is to cook for everyone. " I said with a little chuckle.
Before gaster could say another word, there was a sound of bones clacking against each other, followed by screams of exasperation.
"heh heh, looks like some things never change, even across timelines. " I wistfully said a soft smile on my face, as gaster smiled with me.
"good morning Jan, it seems there's a three skeleton pile up on interstate 87. "tony said in his anchorman voice as he walked into the room and sat at the table.
"heh heh, if you thought that was bad you should've seen sans and I when we were younger. "I said as everyone sat at the table.
"do I even want to know? "he asked as sans sat next to me.
"let's see there was the time we tried to vault over the rail and ended up landing on each other. "I stated as I looked at sans who nodded.
"then there was the trash tornado incident. " sans nonchalantly said as tony, Bucky, Steve, and Clint spit out their coffee in shock.
"the hack... Cough.. The what? "Clint asked as he coughed.
"oh yeah. Heh heh ha... You know the small tornados I have on my floor? Well those are trash tornados. "I explained as I poured myself a cup of coffee, while sans took a sip of his.
"yep, that's what we called them after we first made them. You see me an sable shared a room when we were baby bones. So one day bout a month or so before the incident, we were practicing our gravity magic, and we ended up making them. "sans explained before taking a bite of his waffles, while I continued after finishing my own bit of French toast.
"so one morning, dad was making breakfast and he hollered for us to come down. Well us being the geniuses that we are decided to race each other to the kitchen. Well... Heh heh... Let's just say that didn't go exactly the way we planed. Seeming as we jumped from the bed at the same time, causing us to slam into each other, and we ended up in the trash tornado we had near the end of the bed. " I said as gaster started to chuckle.
"ah yes. I remember that morning, I ended up having to go upstairs to their room to get them. Imagine my surprise when I saw them being spun around inside this small tornado, being hit by empty ketchup bottles and popato chisps bags. Hahaha. "gaster said as everyone at the table laughed while sans and I turned bright blue and shrunk down in our seats in embarrassment.
Once everyone got their laughter under control, we ate and talked. "OK seeming as we're just about done with breakfast, I'm going to pair everyone up. "Steve said in his captain America voice.
"first pair will be Clint and stretch. "he said as Clint and stretch nodded to each other.
"next team, Natasha and mutt. "they acknowledge each other.
"undyne and fell, will be team three. "Steve said as fell and undyne glared at each other.
"which leaves sans with me. "he finished as sans saluted him, while my face slipped back into the impassive look I wore as genocide. After the teams were paired off, they went to gather what they would need for the mission, before Steve could leave the room, I slipped my arm through his.
"mind helping a girl to the lab? "I asked a dark undertone to my voice.
"not at all sable. "he replied not picking up on my tone.
We had just entered the hallway when I whirled around my left arm pushing Steve against the wall, my hand lightly gripping his throat. "ι aм only goιng тo ѕay тнιѕ once ѕтeven granт rogerѕ, ιғ anyтнιng and ι мean anyтнιng нappenѕ тo мy вroтнer, well.. нeн нeн... yoυ're goιng тo нave a вad тιмe... OK! "I said my voice starting out menacing then ending in a preppy tone.
"I I understand. Now is this a big sister threat or... "he stated
"no Steve this isn't a big sister thing. Did you ever wonder why I asked you to pair he judges with an avenger? It's because they have one huge flaw... They only have one hp, meaning one hit and their dust. "I stated as we finished our walk to the lab.
A couple of hours later I was hugging sans, stretch, and mutt good bye, as they stepped next to the machine. I saluted fell as he joined the judges. "come back safe you guys. "I said to the avengers, as I held my arm out stopping Clint.
"yeah? "he asked in confusion at why I stopped him.
"don't forget these. "I replied as I handed him a quiver of bone arrows that when fired had the power of the gaster blaster's, his eyes lit up at the sight of them.
"knock em dead Hawkeye. "I said with a wink as he walked over to stretch.
"will do. "he said as Bucky stepped out of he shadows, looking at Steve.
"till the end of the line. "Bucky said
"till the end of the line. "Steve replied as gaster walked over to the machine and with a few key strokes they disappeared in a flash of white light.
"come on little bones. "Bucky said as he put his arm around me and walked me out of the lab and towards the main living room.
I walked over to the balcony window as the sun started to set. Blue, black, crooks, pap's, Aliza and frisk entered the living room.
"did you know I do this little ritual when the avengers go on missions. "I worriedly said as I looked at their reflections through the window.
(may we watch auntie? )frisk asked as the others voiced their wanting to watch as well.
"I would be honored if you watched. " I said as my left eye flared cyan, with a wisp of magic coming from my eye.
"bid goddess rise, from mist of memory
Rise the fair cathain
In battle equal to every man
And every lovers disdaned
Her heart was locked in around towers keep
And none that gate could unbar
Till rose a prince from Ulster's east
His name was conchobar. "I stared to sing as my magic formed a mist around me while my soul glowed through my shirt.
"by day she taught him feats of arms
With sword and mace and bow
By night they kindled passions fire
That only lovers know. " my left hand which was closed opened to reveal flames in the palm of my hand.
"sibling and warrior thus were joined
In battles, blood, and love
The throne belonged to conchobar
To cathain the witches glove. "the metal of my arm which looked like a bracelet, started to liquefy and cover my left arm as I raised it showing that he back of my hand.
"dark rivals rose against the king
To challenge for his throne
All Ulster in the balance hung
Without it's champion
A druid he sent to sacrifice
An offering to cathain
A maiden fair with flaxen hair
Not once but two times slain
Two time slain
Hey, hey, hey. "I held up one finger followed by two, before my soul started to thrum in time with the music.
"but cathain she would ne'r return
To fight the kings own war
Till the druid did a virgin bring
To conamara far
The fair Iona pure and sweet
On the selfsame table lain
And by the corclach's hungry stone
The innocent was slain
Hey hey hey
Hey hey hey. "
By this point I looked like a goddess that just stepped off the Scottish moars, as I turned to face those who were watching me.
"in rage the warrior goddess from
The wester sea arose
Her bloody gauntlet felt that day
A thousand fierce death blows
The kingdom saved her quest complete
She sans beneath the waves
Till Ulster's sons with sacrifice
Bid her return once more. "my magic slowly dissipated as I sang the last note, till I was once again standing in front of the balcony doors.
"ШΩШIΣ, SΔβLΣ ΨΩU LΩΩҜΣD LIҜΣ ΩΠΣ ΩҒ THΣ SҜΣLΣTΩΠS ΩҒ ΩLD. "pap's said as the other skeletons nodded while frisk and Aliza's heads were tilted in confusion.
"skeletons of old? "Aliza asked as frisk signed the same question.
"ever notice that early depictions of death were skeletons? "I asked as frisk and Aliza nodded.
"IT ШΔS βΣCΔUSΣ ΩҒ THΩSΣ PΔIΠTIΠGS ΩҒ ΩUR ΔΠCΣSTΩRS THΔT ШΣ ШΣRΣ THΣ ҒIRST TΩ DIΣ. "blue sadly said
(first to die? )frisk signed
"ΨΣS THΣ HUMΔΠS beLIevΣD THΔT IҒ THΣΨ ҜILLΣD US, THΣΨ ШΩULDΠ'T DIΣ. "black stated as he stood proudly.
"oh I get it now. "Aliza said as Bucky came from the dining room. "dinners ready. "he said as we all walked to the table.
"hope you guys don't mind, I made my ma's pasta. "Bucky said sounding a little sheepish.
"ΠΩT ΔT ΔLL HUMΔΠ βUCҜΨ"pap's happily replied
I watched as Mettaton fidgeted while we ate, "are you OK metta? "I asked after finishing my bite of food.
"no I am not OK darling, nothing against you and what happens, but when will my perfect body be ready? "he whined as toriel gave him a disapproving look.
"actually metta I planed on starting it while the others are gone. "I said
"really darling? " he asked
"yes. But I'm warning you now, once we start this there's no stopping until its done, you will also have to stay in the body till it's done. "I explained as Mettaton looked at me with a ghostly brow raised.
"I'll have to stay in the body... Darling won't I feel everything? "he asked
"no you won't feel anything I'm going to put you under anesthesia. "I stated
"SISTΣR ШILL THIS USΣ Δ LΩT ΩҒ ΨΩUR MΔGIC? "pap's asked concern in his eye and voice.
"actually it will only use the same amount of magic as any normal day to day activities. "I answered
"THΣΠ ШHΨ DΩ I HaVΣ THΣ DISTIΠCT ҒΣΣLIΠG ΨΩUR HIDIΠG SΩMΣTHIΠG? "black stated
"can't hide something you've yet to divulge. It's just the set up is a pain in the as. "I said as toriel gave me a disapproving look.
"how is it a pain? "she asked as she took a sip of her wine.
"the vibranium has to be kept at a constant 5, 475f, so the initial melting takes a while. "I replied
"I see. "she replied while we continued eating.
"you're going to have help, right? "Bucky asked sternly
"yep. Pap's, crooks, blue, and black will be there keeping an eye on me. "I stated as we finished our dinner and then retired for the night.
