Nafi waved away the fog, taking in the sight of the tall blue rocks and glowing stones in the ceiling. Walking past a fish monster talking to a blue flower and an empty sentry station, she came upon a waterfall throwing rocks down into a hole. She carefully made her way to the other side.

She ducked into a patch of grass and squinted her HUD open. The monster Kid who lived in Snowdin was hiding here, and someone stood on a ledge above her. If only she had line of sight. She ducked down and hid as Papyrus walked up to the ledge person.

"HELLO UNDYNE. I'M HERE FOR MY REPORT."

Nafi held her breath to prevent a gasp. The captain of the royal guard Undyne?

"A-AH, NO. THE HUMAN LEFT."

Papyrus was conspiring with the royal guard? The one that wanted to kill her? She reached for her bow only to be reminded that it was broken.

"NO! THERE IS NO NEED TO KILL HER, SHE'S FRI-… YES UNDYNE…"

Ok, not wanting to kill her. "I am going to get some answers out of him."

Undyne moved, Nafi hadn't realized she said that out loud. Staying utterly still, she waited until Undyne no longer showed up on her HUD.

Letting out a sigh of relief, she deactivated her HUD and continued forward out of the grass on the other side, Kid following close behind. "Did you see that Miss Nafi! Undyne looked right at me!"

"So, she did. Aren't you supposed to be at home?"

"I let Mom know I was out, so they don't worry."

"If you say so."

Kid ran away, tripping but getting up quickly, to continue his search for Undyne.

After checking to make sure the coast was clear, Nafi swiped open her console

/give Nafriskenta bow

In a flash of light, a new bow sat in her hand.

/enchant infinity

Another flash and imperceptible runes were engraved on the inside of the bow. She put away her console as she reached for an arrow to test the bow. She shot towards the ledge where Undyne and Papyrus has their talk, an arrow quivered in the stone and an arrow was still in her hand.

Nafi admired the bow. "Well aren't you a shiny diamond."

She put away the bow and the arrow and started walking.


*ring ring*

"Hello?"

"HELLO HUMAN! I CALLED WITH A QUESTION."

"Spill."

"WHAT ARE YOU WEARING?"

"My normal clothes. W-."

*click*

"Papyrus?"


"Wishing room?"

She tapped a blue flower and jumped back when it started to talk. "I wish I could see real stars."

Another, "I wish my mommy didn't fall down."

Another, "I wish I could see the sun."

She ran through the room, followed by the voices of all the monsters that the flowers repeated.

After the last of the voices was left behind, she sat next to what she faintly remembered the history books calling a telescope to catch a breather. She ignored the tears trailing down her face.


"Wosh yo face?"

"I already thanked you for your help on the telescope puzzle, now leave me alone."

"Wosh yo tears?"

"I was not crying, leave me alone!"


She stepped off a floating panel and onto a large dock area and immediately had to dodge a spear. Giving Undyne no chance to attack again, Nafi took off running.

Undyne kept hiding behind trees while throwing her spears so Nafi had no good shots for arrows or a stat check. It didn't help that the dock weaved back and forth so she had to focus on where she put her steps.

Who made this stuff!? It served no useful purpose!

She ran off the dock area and slid into some reeds to hide.

Undyne walked up as Nafi readied her bow, knowing she would have only one shot at this. Undyne stuck her hand in the reeds and pulled out Kid, unknowingly putting him between her and the arrow. She put him down and walked off, prompting Nafi to stand up and walk out of the reeds.

Kid ran up behind her. "Did you see that Miss Nafi!? Undyne touched me! I'm never washing my face again!"

Nafi opened her mouth, but Kid ran off before she could say anything.

She made a fist and berated herself for not noticing Kid was in the reeds with her.

"I'm getting sloppy," she said as she punched the air in frustration. She took a deep breath to calm down and continued the way she was going.


Soon, she passed by some cheese encased in crystal. It reminded her of her empty stomach, so she pulled out a ration and moved forward. In the next room, she came upon Sans.

"hey ya."

Nafi swallowed the food that was in her mouth. "Didn't I leave you at the start of Waterfall?"

Sans shrugged, "i know some shortcuts. want to join me for grillby's?"

Nafi nodded as she stuffed the rest of her ration in her mouth. Food was always good.

"great, follow me."

She did so, wondering why they were going in the opposite direction, when suddenly they were walking in the entrance of Grillby's. She choked a bit in surprise.

If she didn't have food in her mouth, she would have yelled 'Did you just teleport!?', but since she did have food in her mouth she just screamed internally as she followed Sans to the bar.

"i'll take some fries. you want burger or fries?"

She swallowed. "Fries also please."

Grillby nodded and walked away.

Nafi turned to Sans, and whisper yelled, "I have multiple questions."

"shoot."

She swore he was silently laughing. "One, why can you teleport? Two, why was Papyrus talking with Undyne about my capture? Three, how can you teleport."

"i'll answer number two. paps is a sentry and undyne is his direct superior and he has to report to her. she's also his friend and he doesn't like lying to friends."

Grillby walked back over with two orders of fries. Nafi immediately dug into hers, staring at Sans as she waited for the answers to her other two questions.

Sans wasn't going to give her them though as he asked her, "let me ask you a question, have you heard of a talking flower?"

Nafi paused in her chewing and glaring, thinking of multiple things that could describe. She hesitantly nodded yes.

"so you heard of the echo flowers then?"

Nafi cleared her mouth. "That's what those are called? Anyway, you nev-."

"SANS!"

Nafi jumped, squishing the fry that was in her hand as she fought everything that said she needed to pull out her sword and attack.

"sup paps."

"HELLO HUMAN, DIDN'T EXPECT YOU HERE. I CAME TO RETRIEVE MY BROTHER."

She released a shaky breath and wiped the crushed fry on its brethren. "And I also have things to do. Thank you for the food." She placed some gold on the bar and grabbed a handful of her fries for the road as she left and walked back towards waterfall.

It took a while before she finally relaxed.


*ring ring*

"Hello?"

"I'M SORRY FOR SCARING YOU HUMAN."

"I'm ok now, don't worry."

"SAY, WE NEVER HAD A PROPER HANGOUT."

"I lived in your house for a week. I say that's a proper hangout."

"THEN MAYBE YOU WOULD LIKE TO HANGOUT WITH MY FRIEND UNDYNE."

"…Maybe later."

"OK THEN, THE ASGORE CLONE SAYS HELLO."

"Hello Toriel."

"Hello child."

"BYE!"

*click*


Nafi came across a statue. That in of itself wouldn't have been surprising given the history tablets everywhere, but it was being rained on and just looked so... sad. Looking ahead, she saw a basket of umbrellas and she had an idea. She walked over and grabbed a green umbrella. Walking back to the statue, she set the umbrella on the statue making it so that the sad looking statue was no longer rained on. Music started to play from the statue.

After listening to the sad melody it played for much longer than probably necessary, Nafi picked up an umbrella for herself and moved forward into the rain-cave the basket was meant for.

Kid ran up to her from an alcove in the wall farther into the downpour. "Can I come with? I can't carry an umbrella."

Nafi sighed and shrugged, "Sure."

Kid was too cute for his own good.

In silence they make their way through the rain, stopping only long enough to enjoy the view of the castle from the top of a large cliff.

They make it to the other side of the rain and Nafi puts the umbrella in another basket. Still, they walked together, until they reached a high ledge blocking the way. Nafi climbs up and turns back to Kid, "Need some help?"

He shakes his head, "No, I know another way."

He runs off, tripping onto his face, as Nafi continues onward.

She came to a maze like set of docks. Who made these docks? They need to be smacked for their idiocy.

She only took a few steps on to the wood before blue spears lanced through the dock in front of her. She pulled out her bow. Taking aim at Undyne below her, she activated her HUD.

Health: 1500, Attack: 50, Defense: 20

Her bow wasn't going to cut it.

"Son of a creeper-." She put away her bow and took off running down the maze of docks, dodging another set of spears. She sprinted as fast as she could, jumping over small gaps and dodging spears along the way.

Until she hit a dead end.

Nafi spun around to run back but saw Undyne blocking her way. She pulled out her sword, preparing to fight for her life like many times before. Papyrus would probably hate her but it's not like she wasn't already hated by people.

Undyne raised her hand and threw it back down, causing spears to cut through the dock. The section Nafi stood on shook and fell, sending her plummeting.

"Cheater!" She yelled as she fell into the dark abyss bellow.


"Frisk? That's a nice name. I'm sorry for mistaking you for Chara. Let's try this again, My name…. –"


Nafi woke up with a name she didn't know on her lips and a sorrow that came out of nowhere.

She looked around wildly, but no one was there.

"Hello?"

But nobody came.

She shook off her unease and checked to see if anything was broken. She fell on her front, so her cape was fine. The pile of flowers broke her fall, so she had lost very little health. What health she did loose was because…

"Oh no, no, NO!"

Her sword was in pieces.

...

Nether.


"Foolish, foolish, Fooli- ACK!"

Nafi grabbed the dummy by the nose, dragging it's face down to hers and glared into its eyes. "Look. I am NOT in the mood for this. Get out of my way."

The mad dummy flees.

(Napstablook fled too.)


Nafi took one look at Temmie Village… and walked away.

She valued her sanity.


As her surroundings got darker, Nafi pulled out a torch and lit it. She came up to a dead end, with only an echo flower. A curious tap revealed the phrase, "Behind you."

She activated her Hud immediately, revealing Undyne right behind her. She gripped her torch and prepared to attack. No sword, but that didn't mean-

"YO!" Kid interrupted her thoughts.

Both ladies looked over at Kid and the wall that he just busted through, shining a light into the dark hall.

"Undyne! Miss Nafi! Who are you two fighting?"

Undyne grabbed Kid and dragged him off as Nafi escaped through the new hole in the wall.

As Nafi crossed another bridge, Kid finally caught up with her.

"Hey, Miss Nafi? Is it true you're a human?"

She stopped, screwing her eyes shut. "…Yes…"

"Oh, well, um, I'm supposed to hate you. Do you think you can say something mean so I can?"

No, please don't make her kill you. "…"

"Oh… Well here goes nothing I guess. I-I hate you."

Please just go. "…"

"Who am I kidding, that was horrible. I'll just be going now."

Nafi turned to look back down the narrow bridge, just in time to see Kid trip off the side.

"KID!"

She sprung into action and ran back to grab him before he fell to far. Dragging him back onto the bridge, she fell onto her knees and gave him a big hug.

"You don't need to be someone because others tell you to. And you most definitely don't need to go falling off bridges because you don't meet other's standards," she told him.

Kid squirmed out of the hug, and Nafi noticed Undyne at the other end of the bridge. She stood up, reaching for a sword that wasn't there. She stared into Undyne's eye, knowing that she wasn't going to be able to win.

Kid spoke up, breaking the staring contest. "Yo. She may be a human, but I'm not letting you have my friend."

Nafi gave Kid a look at the word friend. What emotions it was meant to convey was lost as Undyne grabbed Kid again and dragged him off.

Nafi went in the opposite direction, hoping Kid would be alright.

Her paranoia reared its head again after that scene on the bridge. She had her HUD up, preparing for an ambush.

She didn't really need to do that though, because just as Undyne entered her range she started to speak.

"Seven. Seven human souls, and King Asgore will become a god. Six. That's how many we have collected thus far. Understand? Through your seventh and final soul, this world will be transformed. First, however, as is customary for those who make it this far... I shall tell you the tragic tale of our people. It all started, long ago..."

Nafi looked up at where Undyne was perched on a large rock. She already knew this story from Toriel, and so she focused on trying to sneak under Undyne. Until the helmet hit the ground right in front of her, causing her to jump back.

"... No, you know what? SCREW IT! WHY SHOULD I TELL THAT STORY WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO DIE!? NGAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! YOU! You're standing in the way of everybody's hopes and dreams! Alphys's history books made me think humans were cool... ...with their giant robots and flowery swordswomen. BUT YOU? You're just a coward! Hiding behind that kid so you could run away from me again!"

"I did not!" Nafi yelled in anger.

Undyne continued like she didn't hear, "And let's not forget your wimpy goody-two-shoes-shtick! Oooh! I'm making such a difference by hugging random strangers! You know what would be more valuable to everyone? IF YOU WERE DEAD! That's right, human! Your continued existence is a crime! Your life is all that stands between us and our freedom! Right now, I can feel everyone's hearts pounding together! Everyone's been waiting their whole lives for this moment! But we're not nervous at all. When everyone puts their hearts together, they can't lose! Now, human! Let's end this, right here, right now. I'll show you how determined monsters can be! Step forward when you're ready! Fuhuhuhu!"

Nafi stared at her blankly. "I have multiple complaints about what you just said, but I do not care,"

She pulled out her bow and aimed, "Stand still please."
