Me: Hmmm...I'm not sure how this chapter. It's a bit... I dunno. Fluff here, Undyne there...feels...I dunno.

Red: We're gonna be here all day if this keeps up...

Asriel: I'd rather not be here all day. We get hungry easily.

Red: That's right. Fooood~

Me: These two...

Shamir: I know...

Undyne: I really like them! :3

Chapter Start!


"Alright! You two punks ready for this?" Undyne said with folded arms as she stared at the scene before her. Red and Asriel were standing across one another, each having their blades drawn. They were a decent distance far away from a place where humans would be seeing them. Even though it's been established that they didn't need to excessively worry about that as much as they did, because they were still in mostly monster populated neighborhood where there wasn't much humans roaming around in the area. Still, it was currently better safe than sorry. Especially with all of the past current events.

Asriel nodded hurriedly. "Ready, Master."

"Yes, Lady Undyne." Red nodded as well.

"Remmeber, no super fancy magic. As in, nothing that can seriously damage the surrounding area. This spar doesn't need to turn into a full-on battle. Because if it does, the humans might get pissy and then we'll be in serious trouble. So yeah, be careful about that. Aaaannnd...HAJIME!" Undyne called out while swiping her hand to the side, grinning wildly. I have ALWAYS wanted to do that! Fuhuhuhuhu! She mentally geeked.

Red and Asriel both narrowed their eyes before they charged at one another, and swung their respective blades simultaneously, clashing right in the middle of their respective swings. There was a slight magic shockwave from the clash, as they pushed against one another a bit fiercely.

"You might as well give up now, Azzy! I'm winnin' this first spar between us!" Red declared confidently.

"Not likely, Red. I have my Dreemurr Determination spurring me on to win!" Asriel shot back with a smile.

"Dreemurr Determ...ugh! Don't tell me that's seriously going to catch on?"

"We're still testing it out."

With this, they pushed away from one another and charged again, slashing once again. Asriel jumped back as he dodged a diagonal upward slash, then countered with his own downward slash. Red immediately blocks it and pushes him back. Sliding back a couple feet, Asriel gathers fire in his paw and throws it at Red with very close accuracy. Red narrowed her eyes and slashed the flames in half, before Asriel rushed up to her and kicked her in the side, pushing her back a couple feet. He relaxed his posture for a bit when he heard her grunt.

Before he could ask if she was okay, Red was already slashing back at him, which made him counter by holding his sword horizontally. "You're gonna have to be more vigilant than that, Azzy! Don't miss your step!"

Asriel nodded quickly as he slashed back, once again clashing against Red's sword. A downward slash simultaneously counters an upward slash. A lower slash from Asriel caused Red to jump upwards and slightly kick at Asriel. He caught her foot and lightly threw her a couple feet, though she landed perfectly on her feet, not breaking stride. She narrowed her eyes in focuses as she adjusted the cowl over her head, while Asriel gently adjusted his rainbow scarf. He gripped tightly on his Chaos Blade while Red clings onto her rapier.

She gripped her blade tightly and lunged forward towards him, jabbing toward's Asriel. He dodges to the right and actually continues to dodge all of the swings that come afterwards, lightly sweating when he could see the increased speed of all of her swings. None of them were meant to do serious harm of course, but it still unnerved him quite a bit. It was clear that she was using her superior speed to try and win the day. Well, he won't let her do that so easily.

His eyes flashed purple for a split second as lightning coated his body, surprising Red greatly as she jumped back to avoid getting shocked from the sudden outburst. Asriel's eyes soon turned back to normal as he gripped his blade again. Smiling and nodding in approval, Red dissipated her sword as two chakrams appeared in her paws, greatly and purposely depowered. With a deep breath, she narrowed her eyes as she sounds around and tossed both of them towards Asriel. He swiftly patted them away with his blade, only to jump back as one of them came back for a second attack. They honed in on him, he realized. He jumped over them multiple times every time they came back around for another slice at him. He soon reached out and caught one of the chakrams himself, using it to swing and deflect the other chakram, then tossing it back at Red. She gasped and lightly leaned back to avoid having her weapon turned against her. Sighing, she had them dissipate away as well.

"Heh. You're very good, Asriel. I can clearly see that your days training with Undyne has really helped you as a fighter!" Red declared. "Though I'm still going to get my first victory over you, and it's gonna be sweet!"

"I won't give you that victory so easily!" Asriel declared right back with a smile of his own.

Red gripped her blade as she thought over what she should do next. Had this been more than a spar, she'd have a wider range of options to choose from. But that wasn't the case here. She'd had to think a lot smaller. She may be fast, but Asriel's stamina and endurance will surely kick in whike she eventually ends up breathing hard on the ground. She had to find a way through his guard, to completely break his focus. She just needed to know how she should do so and when she would do it. How could she distract a Determined Dreemurr like Asriel?

Her eyes widened as she suddenly got an idea. She smirked under her cowl as she let's a very mischievous giggle escape her muzzle. Well once thing is for sure, he definitely won't see it coming because of how out of place it might be in a real battle. Plus his reaction promises to be priceless. With a firm nod, she gripped her blade tightly with both paws. She was ready to knock Asriel on his back.

"Alright, Come at me!"

"If you say so!" Asriel accepted her invitation and leapt towards her again, bringing his blade down for another strike. Red swiftly avoids it by stepping to the right. She smiled under her cowl. Perfect.

"...Mmmmwah~" While Asriel was trying to recover quickly enough for another attack, Red had pushed her cowl back as she closed her eyes and sweetly planted a kiss on his cheek. And as she predicted, his reaction was priceless.

Asriel's eyes widened in disbelief as a massive blush rendered his entire head turning red, as his mouth parted due to the shock. "W...Wh...Wha...?" His moment of weakness exploited, Red ducked and swung her leg in an arc, doing a leg sweep that knocked Asriel off his feet and on his back. Red already had the pointed end of her sword at his nose before he couldn't fully regain his bearings. "Huh?!"

"I win~" Red smiled victoriously.

"H-Hey! That was...you shouldn't have...I shouldn't have-! Ooooooh! Golly gosh darn it!" Asriel pouted, looking away while trying to contain his extremely reddened face. But nonetheless, he was helped back up by Red as she sheathed her sword.

"Undyne said we shouldn't be using any magic that can cause serious damage. She didn't say anything about not using a distraction to get ahead~" Red smirked, folding her arms as her tail wagged playfully. "What's the matter, Azzy? Ya didn't see that comin'? Hm?~"

"Of course I didn't! How was I supposed to know you would distract me with that?!"

"You weren't supposed to. That's the point. Hehe~"

"D'oh..." Asriel mumbled, shaking his head a little before finally sighing with a smile. "Well. It looks like you won this one. Good job, Red."

"Thank you. You're such a good sport~" Red giggled as she punches Asriel in the shoulder. He sheepishly laughs as he rubs the struck shoulder a bit, lightly blushing.

"Alright. Now usually I'm not one for supporting the use of feminine wiles to get ahead in a fight...but I gotta admit. That. Was. Hilarious. Fuuuhuhu!" Undyne cackled as she made her way over to the duo, slapping both of their backs. "Good job you two! You're improving greatly!"

"Thank you, Master."

"Only because of you, Lady Undyne."

Both Red and Asriel bowed respectfully to her. The mermaid beams at the both of them. Rustling both of their heads, she folds her arms and nods to the side. "Alrighty then, you've earned your break for today. Cinnamon Bunnies for the both of ya!"

"Cinnamon Bunnies?! Awesome! Because I am like, sooooo hungry!" Red cheered, thrusting her arms up in the air, her tail wagging even faster. As if to emphasize her point, her belly growls fiercely. She blushed heavily as she covered said belly with her paws. "I get rather cranky when I'm hungry."

"Cranky?" Asriel asked. "...like a hungry baby? Cranky Rude Baby Red?"

"...Did Chara put you up to that, Dreemurr?" Red narrowed her eyes, glaring sharply at him with her paws on her hips. Asriel gulped and nodded sheepishly under her gaze. She smirked. "I'll give you a pass for at least being honest. If we hadn't stopped training for today, I would have really kicked your fluffy tail." She playfully punches him in the shoulder again. Asriel visibly flinched, but didn't resist as he again laughed weakly. He kind of deserved it for going through with it. "Alrighty, let's eat!"

The two of them sit on the ground as they eagerly bite into their respective Cinnamon Bunnies, each wearing a face of absolute bliss that shared their obsession with cinnamon. Red went 'Monch Monch' while Asriel went 'Nyom Nyom', both of their cheeks slightly swelled with Cinnamon Bunnies, wearing a face that isn't unlike Frisk's, which furthers the sign of their feeling of bliss. They were absolutely adorable and their fellow teacher just couldn't stand it. Undyne had to bite her fist to keep herself from squealing. Since her teeth were sharp, her fist ended up bleeding just slightly. Though since Undyne is Undyne, she barely noticed it.

Damnit all to hell these two are adorable!

Asriel raised his head a bit. "Master Undyne?"

"Huh? Oh! What is it?" Undyne stopped biting her fist and relaxed her gaze.

"Um...how did you know about me and...Red?"

"Azzy, you're not exactly an expert at making poker faces like Frisk and Sans. And Red, she's a damn firecracker. We allll had you two figured out for a while now. Hell, your mother was the very first one." She grinned.

"Oh...yeah. I'm not exactly an expert at hiding my emotions." Asriel rubbed his neck sheepishly, sighing awkwardly. It wasn't very surprising. Close to nothing gets past Toriel when it came to her children.

"Meh. I wasn't really interested in keeping it a secret, anyway." Red shrugged, biting into her cinnamon treat. "Why would I keep it a secret? I like Azzy. I have no reason to be secretive about it." Asriel blushed brightly at how confidently she says this, while all he could do was mumble and shyly twiddle his fingers about it. The contrast was so immense, yet the bond was so powerful.

"It's still impressive how you two managed to hook up before Chara and Muffet did, and they've known each other for years. At least...in this permanent timeline...?" Undyne growled as she shook her head while facepalming. "I still can't completely wrap my head around all of that time-space bullshit..."

"That's okay, Undyne. You have Alphys to help you out with that. It'll be fine over time, I'm sure." Asriel nodded. He blinked once he sense a couple others approaching their direction. Toriel was walking alongside Shamir and Alphys. "Oh! Speaking of Alphys..."

"Heeeeeyyyy cutiieeeee~" Undyne suddenly grinned as she scooped Alphys up in a hug and kissed her cheek. A faint blush brushed the lizard's face as she turned around and giggled. Shamir looked completely confused about the interaction. Undyne swiftly noticed this, and turned towards him strangely. "What's goin' on with you?"

"N-Nothing..." Shamir shook his head. "It's just...so strange. In my universe, your relationship was much more different than what's going on here..."

"Does it have something to do with those Alter! Versions of Toriel and Asgore being brother and sister?" Alphys suddenly asked. Shamir slowly nods in confirmation. Alphys tilted her head. "That's rather strange. Then again, there are a lot of possibilities. Where did those two go, anyway?"

"I heard they went back to their own universe. Now that they have their father back, they seemed a lot happier than usual. I'm sure they'll be fine and will be progressing much more." Toriel said, clasping her paws. "It was rather interesting to see them. I'm sure well meet again under different circumstances."

"I don't doubt that. But we're taking a break from that stuff for now, and I'd rather enjoy that break." Red said as she finished her Cinnamon Bunny and brushed off her paws from the crumbs. She then hugged Asriel's arm and nuzzled him affectionately. "Ain't that right, Azzy?~"

"Y-Yeah! Hehe..."

"Oooh! My little Fluffybuns has a girlfriend! And so soon, with such a strong beautiful girl~" Toriel beamed. The comments made both Red and Asriel blush. Soon Asriel was getting caught in Toriel's hug once she grabbed onto him. "You're growing up so fast!" She exclaimed, with a couple tears rolling down her cheeks. Normally this would have had a much less deeper meaning when it came to her children growing up. But she thought she would never see Asriel do such a thing, so the moments he has along the years become much more personal to her.

"Momma...plz..." Asriel mumbled while looking away with a bright blush. Red simply looked down at her lap with a bright blush of her own, shyly smoothing out her skirt with her paw. Even though she's known her personally for a while now, Toriel sure was something, just like the other Dreemurrs.

She soon released Asriel from her grasp, and she turned towards Red. "Red, I've heard you began training with Undyne and Asriel. How is that progressing, child?"

Red nodded strongly. "Is been going well, Lady Toriel. Lady Undyne has graciously accepted me as yet another student." After her previous encounter with Error Sans, Red has decided that her skills and magic could use some honing. The encounter left her feeling sad and defenseless from being unable to do anything about it. Obviously that wasn't gojng to slide with Red. If there was one thing she absolutely abhorred that's on par with being lied to to spare her feelings, is feeling completely powerless in a dangerous situation. She's really not into the whole 'damsel in distress' kind of deal. That happened, now she was going to make sure it can't happen again. Training with Undyne would certainly help her grow in skill and power. And of course training with Asriel will be greatly beneficial too. Becoming a burden to Asriel wasn't on her list of interests, she wanted to be someone he can completely count on when he needed her. Besides, this also means plenty of bonding time with her new boyfriend.

...Boyfriend...Asriel is my boyfriend. Holy Dog Biscuits, the flipping Prince of Monsters is my BOYFRIEND!

The realization fully kicks in. Of course she cared far more about Asriel himself and his kind and sweet personality than his title, which he doesn't even make a big deal out of to begin with. But still, the mere thought of someone like him liking someone like her made her feel all giddy, and even put her in a fit of girlish giggles. Though the latter was out loud, so Asriel turned to her curiously with a tilted head as his ears hung to the side, wondering what was so funny. Red immediately stops giggling as she turned around and picked at her pink hair, blushing brightly. She'd better add being super cute to his kind and sweet personality.

Plus...

"Hey Azzzzzzyyyyy~"

"Yes R-" Red briefly kissed Asriel on his muzzle with a soft 'Mwah!'. He gasped as he pulled back and covered his muzzle, shaking his head rapidly and flailing his floppy ears in utter embarrassment. "I-I...g-golly I...m-meeeeeeeh!" There was the bleat. The adorable bleat. Messing with him has slowly become one of her favorite things to do, because sometimes his reactions to his advancements are also supremely cute.

"Oh Asriel! You get all jumpy from a sudden surprise kiss! Just like your father!" Toriel giggled.

"You're both too cute! NGAAAAAAAAAH!" Undyne chanted, trying not to give into the cuteness.

RedRiel confirmed! Or is it AsRed? AsRed or RedRiel? Either way, I'm a fan! Kawaii Kawaii Kawaiiiiiiii! Alphys inwardly squealed, pawing her cheeks and swaying her hips as comical hearts filled her glasses. Undyne blinked a bit when she turned her head and saw Alphys cheerfully swaying her hips, a bit unaware of what she's doing it for. She instantly blushed as her fins lowered.

Alphys...I'm gonna need you to stop being a sexy scientist, damnit! Wait...on second thought, you should probably keep being a sexy scientist! I don't know! NGAAAAAAAH!

"I...I have absolutely no idea what's going on right now." Shamir slowly shook his head. "Things are so much different here, yet so similar. The only supremely drastic difference from my universe is that we never made it to the Surface. "

"That's right. That bastard Error wiped out your home." Undyne mumbled. "Stranding you out here in our own universe, telling Red that she shouldn't exist...then he acts as if it's some damn day job. I swear, one of these days we're gonna make him pay."

"Without a doubt." Shamir narrowed his eyes and nodded. She nodded back to him.

"...Speaking of which...I'm glad you're here, Shamir. I wanted to do something ever since you came to this universe." Undyne said slowly as she walked across the fields, Shamir looking after her with curiousity. Toriel and Alphys simply decided to take a seat beside Asriel and Red, all of them somewhat aware of what was about to occur next. Undyne finally stopped walking as she turned around and nodded once again. "Shamir...you were the Captain of the Royal Guard in your Universe, right?"

"That is correct. Why do you ask?" Shamir tilted his head.

Undyne folded her arms. "Do me a favor. I want ya to try and hit me as hard as can."

"...Pardon?"

"I didn't stutter." Undyne said with a bit more force as the grin on her face fell into a thin line as her eye narrowed just slightly. The wind gently began flowing past them both, causing her hair to flow with the breeze and lightly obscure the top portion of her face. "I want you. To hit me. As hard as you can."

"...You want me to spar with you?"

"That's right." Undyne said, her expression unchanging as she continued to stare at Shamir. "What? Is that gonna be a problem? You heard what I said. I want you to show me what you got." She tilted her head. "Unless you're thinking I can't take it? You'd be sorely underestimating me if you are."

Shamir's eyes widened.

"DON'T UNDERESTIMATE MY POWER!"

What...what is this feeling...? Shamir thought quietly while he stared at Undyne, who was still patiently waiting for him. I'm feeling...hesitant. Scared, even. That look in her eye...it's so drastically different...yet so similar...

"Don't hesitate, Shamir. You're gonna have to get used to the fact that things are different here from your universe. Now...come at me."

Shamir blinked away his hesitation, shaking his head. He swiftly unsheathed one of his dual swords and gripped it tightly. Undyne nodded as she held her hand out as a cyan sword manifested in the middle of her palm. Shamir was surprised, something about this also felt drastically different. But nonetheless, he followed her order. He charged at her with a burst of speed and slashed downward. Undyne easily parries the blow away, sending it sliding to the side with minimal effort. She then narrows her eye and rose her sword before forcefully slicing downward. Shamir swiftly dodges to the side as he lands on all fours, panting with slight panic.

Somethings definitely different.

"Fuhuhu. You use lightning magic different from Alphys. You use it for purely combat. She learned to use it for technology and stuff. She calls it technokinesis." Undyne said as her other hand was filled with shuriken and swiftly throws three of them at him swiftly. Shamir deflects all of the shuriken heading towards him and raised an eyebrow.

"Technokinesis...?"

"She learned to control technology with said electricity. She learning to control tech with her mind! She's awesome beyond imagination!" Undyne grinned, while Alphys sheepishly blushes in the background. Toriel softly giggles at this.

"I see...she's much more capable here..." Shamir nods softly. Undyne slashed at him again with her sword, and Shamir had to reflect with both of his own, jumping back a couple feet. "So! This strength of yours?"

"Trained with Asgore my whole life. Then came that Crazy Chara Crisis, or CCC. Still think that name is garbage." Undyne rolled her eye as she charged at Shamir, doing a horizontal swipe that Shamir ducks under. "Soon my own power at that point wasn't enough. Asriel had to power up my soul so that I would actually have a chance."

"You mean he made you stronger?"

"Technically, yeah. But what he mostly did was unlock a new level of potential when it came to my magic and my power. So yeah, I guess it can be considered making me stronger, as well as leaving room for me to achieve even greater power on my own. Same goes for Asgore, Toriel, Sans, Papyrus, and Alphys. An entirely new realm of power has been opened up for us." Undyne briefly kicked Shamir in the chest, making him grunt as he slid backwards to recover. From that blow alone, he found himself breathing hard. Undyne pouted. "For very good reason, Toriel is indisputably the most powerful female monster around, and I do respect this about her, as well as her personality in general. Though I still honestly feel a bit jealous of her because of it."

"Jealous of how powerful she is compared to you?"

"I'm used to it, it makes sense, and I don't plan on creating a grudge over it. But it still kinda irks me a bit. She was gone for such a long time in our timeline. Before she came back, I was used to being the strongest gal around, ya know?"

Shamir blinked as he tilted his head. "That is understandable. You were used to being the strongest in the area for quite a while. Yet I can't help but notice that the tone in your voice makes it seem that you're jealous of her for another reason."

Undyne takes a quick look over to Toriel...then an even quicker one down to her sizable bust. She instantly turned back to Shamir, blushing slightly with a childish pout. Her own was also fairly impressive, but Toriel's... "Nope. Absolutely nothing else to be jealous about."

Hm? Is Undyne upset with me for some reason...? Toriel thought, a bit confused by the warriors swift gaze towards her direction. She didn't notice that Alphys also stared for a bit before looking away with a massive blush of her own.

Soon Undyne and Shamir clashed blades again, as they pushed against one another. Undyne had her eye narrowed as she stared into Shamir's eyes. "What's the matter, Shamir? I expected you to be better than this. Unless that stuff about you being a Royal Guard Captain was all talk!"

Shamir knew she was just goading him. But with that particular call out, plus what happened to him a while back, he no longer cared. His paw charged with lightning as silent fury entered his eyes at the insult. With a somewhat savage roar, he clenched his lightning coated fist and send it hurtling towards Undyne with relentless force.

He was shocked as Undyne effortlessly caught his fist. Her hand was covered with a black gauntlet, which was negating the shock and doing no damage against him whatsoever. His eyes widened. "What...?"

"Are you serious?" Undyne narrowed her eye further. "You're supposed to be a Royal Guard Captain from your Universe, yet that's all you've got?"

"How can you consider yourself worthy of the Royal Guard if that's all you've got?"

What...what is-

Shamir was cut off as he suffered a severe blow to his midsection. He gasped as he was brought to his knees. The pain was intense, she didn't hold much back with her punch, not at all. He looked up towards Undyne who looked down on him roughly.

"You're not really trying. You're confidence in your power has been weakened quite a bit, hasn't it?" Undyne said. "I bet in your universe you were one of the big tough guys. But now that you're here, in the Classic Universe, you're almost at the bottom. You're heavily outclassed by nearly all of us. That isn't to say you're worthless. But it upsets you that you feel inferior enough that you don't have any worth here."

Shamir blinked as he looked down. "...I...I lost soundly against Alter!Toriel. And it was about to happen again, even if it was involuntary on my part. I represented the hope of the Underground in my universe. I took great care to make myself worthy of that hope. Maybe because I'm not that hope anymore, and currently, my power doesn't mean much to most of you right now...I don't feel as worthy anymore."

"You're really upset that you've lost so many times after that whole deal. Is that right?" Undyne questioned. Shamir thought for a moment. She had a point. The humiliation he went through was deep, and he had an unconscious desire to regain and rebuild his pride. But every attempt at doing such a thing has failed, and even made things worse for others. "...Listen. Taking your pride too far, is never gonna be a good idea. It'll get you dusted. None of us want that, and we'd much rather keep this timeline moving forward." Shamir's eyes widened at this. "I'm not saying I wasn't like you. I used to talk big and act big, more than I really was. I had a lot of confidence in my abilities, to the point of arrogance. I thought I could take on Asgore, and I thought I could take on Toriel. Both times, I ended up getting my ass handed to me. It happened a LOT with the former. Though at least on the latter side, I opened her eyes to how hypocritical she was being during entire time she was hidden, and that she needed to cut Asgore a break."

"It's true." Toriel nodded solemnly with closed eyes, gently hugging Asriel.

"...Shamir. You want to know why I took on the title 'Undying'?" Undyne began. "I have undying will, and undying Determination. In regards to the latter, Asriel greatly enhanced my monster soul, so now my body can actually take it with no consequences. I have Determination, and I have the power to back it up. With both of these things, I can do what I set my mind to. And what I set my mind to, is preserving this peace between humans and monsters, as well as protecting my loved ones however I can. Anyone who threatens either of those things and refuses to stop no matter what, will be crushed, with no hesitation from me. I care about a bright future in regards to the former, and I'll never hesitate to do anything that'll help the latter. I've become much better at learning how to do both of those things."

"You have...?"

"Damn right. I had to have humbleness beat into me, Shamir. While I still like challenges, and I do have my bits of pride...I eventually realised two things: I'm not the best, and I'm not the strongest. When I made peace with this, I discovered that neither of those things matter much to me anymore, and it opened a new realm of possibilities when it comes to my potential. This is one of the big reasons why Asgore found me trustworthy enough to personally train Asriel. And now...I plan to do the same for Red. She's not too shabby, but she'll still need work. I'm more than happy to take her as yet another student. Papyrus was a success, and Asriel is shaping up nicely. Now I'll see what I can do with Red."

Shamir slowly begins to stand as he listens to what Undyne has to say. It blends into his mind as understanding slowly begins to kick in. Undyne used to be incredibly prideful, and very confident in her own power. But once she set her pride aside and allowed herself to be humbled, as well as staying true to said humbleness while also keeping true to her energetic personality, she ended up growing into a much better person.

"So...Shamir. You've had a pretty cruddy run so far. But trust me when I say that it WILL get better. You've got us, we'll help you. And like I'm sure Asriel said for Red, we're here for you." Undyne said with her bright and wide grin.

Shamir slowly smiled as he nodded in acceptance. "Asriel was rather passionate when it came to fighting Error Sans for Red's life. I now see that you've rubbed off on him."

"See? That's a good example of something to show pride for. Little fluffball grows a strong backbone for when he really needs it." Undyne grinned as she walked over to Alphys, briefly kisses her lips, and effortlessly picks her up. "Now! Let's go get some grub!"

"Heck yeah! More food for me!~" Red cheered, throwing her arms in the air as her tail wagged excitedly. Toriel giggled. If there's one humorous and very noticeable similarity between Asriel and Red, it was their immense appetites. Soon the others were on their way home. She then tilted her head as she gazes at Undyne. "Lady Undyne?"

"Yeah, punk?"

"When you mentioned that you were envious and respectful of how powerful she was than you, Shamir said that you have another reason to be a bit jealous of her. I'm not good at reading people like Sans, but you gave off the impression that this is true."

Undyne deeply blushed, while she pouted and looked away. "I don't wanna talk about it."

"But you were looking at her-"

"I said I don't wanna talk about it!" Undyne reinforced, her hair hiding her eyes as her blush darkened. Alphys blushed a bit as well, as she shook her head at Red, dissauding her from continuing. Shamir also began blushing for some reason...

"...Um...Okay." Red shrugged. She then turned to Asriel was she took hold of his paw, making him jump a bit in surprise. "Why are you being jumpy? I'm just holding your paw, silly!"

"O-Oh! Sorry Red, sorry." Asriel blushed as he rubbed his neck awkwardly. "I'm guessing this is just something I have to gradually get used to. Having a girlfriend, I mean."

"Ah, so that's what it is. Don't worry about it to much. This is a bit new for both of us. We'll keep adjusting together." Red smiled as she again kissed his cheek. Asriel smiled as he again blushed a bit, gently holding her paw.

Toriel smiled a the sight as she looks at Shamir, her paws clasped. "You see, Shamir. Even after six years, we're still adjusting, still improving. There's always room for improvement in many subjects, not just training."

"I see. I'll keep this in mind." Shamir nodded as the small group leaves. With a successful day of somewhat casual training, they left things off on a good note. Shamir noted that Red was able to get over the initial shock about the truth of her existence, with Asriel's help.

And if she can get over it and continue to move forward, surely he can too!

They passed by River Person, who was sounding as cheery as ever. Toriel nodded. "River Person. We won't be needing your transport for today, but we appreciate the offer."

"Tra La La! Unwind after training! Don't wanna exhaust yourself! That leads to overextended naps!"

"You're so weird!" Red shook her head with an adorable pout, as they all passed by River Person without much thought. Once out of earshot, River Persons lowers their head again.

"There's a specific survivor of the war. Gerson: The Hammer of Justice. Always respect your elders. Sometimes they're the only ones with the answers..."


Me: Done!

Undyne: Wait, what? What was THAT about? Why's Gers-"

Me: Nope! Say nothing more!

Undyne: But-

Me: NOTHING!

Undyne: Ugh! Fine!

Me: Thank you for understanding. Still more fluff ahead, be prepare for it!
