Undyne made her way to a wooden bridge which lead into hotland with the Unconscious Frisk draped over her shoulder and trying to figure out why the little girl had just suddenly collapsed and started convulsing, could this be what Gerson was talking about, the child having a condition which caused them to black out and could the convulsing be part of it.
"Don't think just because I'm helping you out here doesn't mean I don't want to fight you" she told the child "I was going to make it a fair fight and it wouldn't be fair making you fight if you're going to collapse and start having some kind of fit." Despite not being too fond of hotland, Undyne proceeded to make her way there and towards a huge laboratory kind of building and once she arrived, she gave a huge knock whilst still holding the Unconscious child over her shoulder who was starting to weakly moan as the doors open and Undyne was greeted by a female dinosaur like creature in a white lab coat and spectacles.
"Oh erm, Hi Undyne" the Dinosaur like female replied in a rather nervous manner before noticing the small child slumped over her shoulders "Oh is that a human?"
"Yeah and I need you to find out if there's anything wrong with them" Undyne stated as she walked inside as the short Dinosaur creature who was known as the royal scientist Dr. Alphys followed behind "I was in the middle of fighting them and they suddenly collapsed and started having some kind of fit." Alphys nodded and then squeaked in horror as the child began to convulse again.
"Damn" Undyne mumbled as she moved the child of her shoulder and placed her down on the floor as her whole body stiffened and shook uncontrollably "this is what I was talking about, the brat must have some kind of human condition because this look normal." The two waited for Frisk's seizure to come to a stop and when it did, Alphys told Undyne to take the little girl to the medical room whilst she went to look at some information on what was the cause of the child's seizure as they had yet no idea that she was Epileptic but after doing some research and monitoring the child who suffered another Seizure shortly after being brought to the medical room, Alphys was able to find the cause of the Seizures.
"It appears that the human child has something known as Epilepsy" Alphys explained.
"So, the old tortoise was right" Undyne replied, remembering what Gerson had told her about the child being Epileptic "well no wonder the kid didn't want to fight, not if they weren't in any condition to do so." Alphys looked over at Frisk who was laying on some kind of hospital bed still Unconscious and saw how small and young she looked.
"Well to be honest I don't think the human looks like the type who would want to fight even if they did have some human medical condition or not" Alphys explained "if you're going to fight them when they've recovered then I don't think it would be a good idea."
"Fine but I am going to ask the kid why she came down here and if it wasn't to destroy all of monster kind then maybe I won't make her fight me" Undyne replied before a small groan could be heard from the behind them and the pair looked over to see that Frisk was beginning to stir "Oh, the human finally awakens" Frisk slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Undyne leaning over her and the child immediately began to panic.
"Please, I don't want to fight" the child said "I don't want to hurt anybody." The girl began to have a panic attack whilst a very nervous Alphys attempted to calm her.
"Little girl, human, you need to keep calm, no one's going to hurt you" she tried to reassure "no one's going to make you fight or do anything you don't want to do."
"Kid, get a hold of yourself" Undyne said, grabbing the child by the shoulders "you could end up having a seizure again" knowing this, Frisk began to calm herself as Undyne was right, she had panic attacks before when she was scared or under pressure and they often triggered a seizure "I'm not going to make you fight me now, I was going to make it a fair fight but it wouldn't be fair making you fight if you're Epileptic but that doesn't mean I now like you, understand, you're a human, the enemy of all monster kind."
"I, I'm sorry I didn't want to cause any trouble" Frisk explained before noticing the short Dinosaur creature stood at the other side of the bed she was laying on "Who are you?"
"Oh erm sorry I almost forgot to introduction myself" Alphys said nervously "I'm Dr. Alphys, I'm the underground's Royal scientist."
"I'm Frisk" Frisk replied, knowing it wouldn't be polite if she didn't introduce herself, she had been brought up to be well mannered and polite "where am I anyway?"
"This is Alphy's lab kid" Undyne explained "you had a fit when I was in the middle of fighting you so I brought you hear to see if Alphys could find out why you had one and then she found out that you have Epilepsy and that's why now I've decided not to make you fight me, not if you're going to have another seizure on me again."
"I didn't want to fight in the first place" Frisk replied "I'm not the fighting type, I don't want to harm anyone here, the only reason I ended up here in the first place was because I must have fallen down a huge hole leading down here when I was about to have one of my seizures."
"So, you're aware of your condition?" Alphys asked and Frisk nodded, explaining that she had suffered her first Tonic clonic Seizure when she was Five years old and that her parents took her to hospital where she was diagnosed with having Epilepsy and since then she had been having different kinds of seizures, the main ones mostly being Absence Seizures and Tonic clonic Seizures.
"Jeez that's rough and sounds kind of scary at the same time" Undyne replied "to be honest I don't think it would be right at all trying to destroy you, not if you're in no fit state to fight back, I may be the heroine of the underground and trying to protect all of monster kind but I don't think a human with some medical condition could be capable of ever terrorizing monster kind and you're just a little kid, you look like you wouldn't hurt a fly let alone every single monster that lives down here." She received a small smile from the child before the smile quickly changed to a more pained expression and Frisk placed her hnad to her head and began to cry out.
"Oh, Frisk, what's wrong?" Alphys squeaked, panicking.
"Human, what's the matter, you look like crap" Undyne pointed out, noticing that the child had gone deathly pale and her hands were beginning to clench up and shake "you're not gonna have another fit again."
"My my head hurts, everything's flashing, loads of colours flashing everywhere" Frisk screamed before throwing up on the floor "I feel funny" her eyes rolled into the back of her head before collapsing on the bed and violently convulsing, her small body stiffening and shaking uncontrollably.
"Holy crap this one is worst than the one she had before" Undyne pointed out as Alphys attempted to calm to child who was still shaking uncontrollably "and what was all that about flashing colours and everything?"
"It looks to me as if her condition is getting worse" Alphys explained whilst still trying to calm the little girl "she must have been on some medication to help keep the seizures under control but if she's been having them quite often then it's obvious she doesn't have any medication and maybe she's possibly hallucinating, if her brain activity has gone haywire then it could explain the flashing she's experiencing." After a while, Frisk finally stopped convulsing but the girl was now unconscious and her face was covered in sweat, strands of hair sticking to her forehead but she was no longer uncontrollably shaking.
"Crap, I had no idea how serious this condition was, especially if she doesn't have any medication to keep it under control" Undyne pointed out "I can't harm or capture the kid now, not if she's like this, what are you going to do now Alphys?"
"Well I think she should stay here in my lab for a while until she feels well enough and from then on she can do whatever she was doing before she was fighting you" Alphys explained "but I will need to make some kind of medication that could help keep the seizures under control so she won't have as much as she was before."
"I may be wrong but I think the kid was heading to the capital" Undyne stated "if she's got a condition then it could only be obvious that she'd want to go back up to the surface, don't think I'd want to be stuck in a strange place if I had a condition which made me fall to the ground and start shaking uncontrollably." Alphys nodded and simply implied that she would keep the girl here at her lab until she was well enough to continue on with her journey and that she would give her some medication to help keep the seizures under control.
"Make sure the little punk recovers" Undyne instructed "because once she does, send her to my place, I want to get to know the kid properly seeing as we got off to kind of a rough start, that was before I knew about this condition of hers."
"I will but she will have to return back here so she can pass through hotland and the core in order to reach the capital" Alphys explained and with that, Undyne left and Alphys immediately set to work on making some anti-seizure medication for Frisk because judging from the bad seizure she had just suffered, her condition was slowly becoming severe and if it was, it would make her more vulnerable and an easy target for any monsters that want to destroy her and take her soul.
"It's going to be okay, I'm going to help you out" she told the child who still lay unconscious "I'm going to make some medication that will help you out so that you won't be having a lot of seizures." Frisk remained in an Unconscious state for at least a few hours until she began to come around and Alphys was immediately by her bedside the moment she heard the child beginning to wake up.
"Oh you're awake, I was beginning to get worried, I thought you would never wake up" she pointed out as the child looked at her with confusion, not seeming to remember what had happened in the past few hours.
"What happened?" she asked "where did Undyne go?"
"You had a bad Seizure, you've been unconscious for at least a few hours" Alphys explained "Undyne went back to her place but she said that you should go there when you feel a little better because she wants to get to know you properly. Do you remember anything before having the seizure?"
"All I remember is seeing lots and lots of colours flashing and then throwing up before everything went black" Frisk replied "it's not the first time that's happened, sometimes if I'm about to have a really really bad seizure, I get really really bad headaches and I start seeing lots of flashing colours and then I just black out and most of the time I end up waking up in hospital because they can make me unconscious for hours or days."
"Well whilst you were sleeping, I made some Anti-seizure medication" Alphys explained, showing Frisk a box of small capsules "I've also made this" she showed Frisk a small box device "it's a Seizure detector, it can detect when you're about to have a seizure and when it starts to detect one, it will make a beeping noise and when it starts beeping, take one of the pills and it will keep your seizures under control but I highly doubt it will make them stop entirely." Frisk nodded and thanked Alphys for all she had done for her so far and with a nod, she left the seizure detector and the medication on the table next to Frisk's bed before leaving the girl to get some well deserved rest and it wasn't long until Frisk, who was now very very exhausted felt her eyelids growing heavy until she drifted into a much needed sleep.
"Oh girly, wakey wakey" Frisk weakly moaned as she felt something poke her in the face followed by a mischievous sing song voice which sounded very familiar to the drowsy ten year old girl "come on wake up, hee hee hee" Frisk opened slowly opened her eyes and everything was blurry but she could just make out something green and yellow looming over her "here we go, that's more like it" her vision began to clear and what she saw looming over her was the one creature she dreaded to encounter "howdy, remember me, it's your best friend Flowey" Frisk froze in fear, to petrified to even move or even cry out as Flowey continued to taunt her whilst keeping his expression adorable and friendly "tut tut you're not looking too good there pal, you look as white as smiley trashbag, what's the matter, have another one of those nasty fits?" he pulled a mockingly sad expression with a pout "oh deary deary me" his expression changed back to his friendly one again as Frisk still sat frozen in shock, why was he here, was he still following her "boy, that's a real shame but don't you worry you're idiotic little head buddy" his expression was now evil and taunting as Frisk began to hyperventilate "your best friend Flowey is going to make things better, I know who you really are" Frisk looked at the crazed flower with a confused expression "I know who you really are, I know it's been you all along Chara."
