Summary: Frisk used PET! It´s super effective!
Chapter 9: Pet Time
Ebott Ville, Front of Wendell Ebott Hospital, 1 year 7 months after the release of monsters and magic back in the world.
Monsters are evicted from the hospital because of the commotion caused. I should have done something about that, after all, I´m the ambassador of monsters but I don't care about that right now.
Eye Bone is silent in my arms while I hug him tightly.
**"Frisk come on stop crying" Chara is trying to sooth me but I am crying since we left the room.
"Whatever happened there Sans, I think I sent you to check on Frisk not to start a fight with that man." A stern goat mama pressed but you could hear worry underneath it.
"ugh, well tori you see-"
"He tried to murder my friend!" tried to shout a very angry Eye Bone but I had him clutched and his scream is muted by this.
"Ple-please stop sh-shouting" I wimper in distress.
I hate this.
**"Frisk calm down you are fine, he will be fine, it´s just a broken arm, that heals in no time ok?"
"I think that we should take this conversation to my house, it is the nearest one" the king speaks.
"Wait" I stop them from moving more than a step.
"Eye Bone if you are here, where is Chester?"
"He is hiding, you see, that skeleton Papyrus took me from some bushes where we landed when that vortex spat us here so I told him to stay hidden because I didn't know what his intentions were." Eye bone explained as clearly as possible.
*Boing* *Boing* *Boing* *Boing*
"Chester!"
A four legged furry creature with horns and a dangling tongue came out of his hiding place and I kneel and open my arms to receive him.
*licking noises*
"What is that?"
"Is that a monster?"
The two boss monsters question out loud.
"His name is Otto von Chesterfield, Esq." I take him in my arms and show the four very confused monsters "Say hi Chester!"
*excited bark*
* Chester asks to be pet.

*Don't pet *PET *Play

"hehehe silly Chester, I´m so glad to see you again, aren´t you glad to see me again? Yes you are, yes you are!" I cooed while swinging him gently.
Chara smiles at me and I thank her through our link for bearing with me.
"My child please, this is too much we need an explanation… We… wanted to wait for him to be healthy to be questioned, but if he speaks ill of us to human police I´m afraid that Sans can be apprehended." I understood her concern but…
"He won't mom, he already lied to the doctor and I´m sure he will keep his word on the matter."
"frisk can i talk with you?" Sans asks and the others look at him oddly.
I don't answer right away and there is a tension in the air, even Chara was waiting for my answer.
*sigh*
"Sans, I´m sorry but I have to give you the same information the others will receive, and that will be once Wilson gets out of the hospital."
"… ok kiddo" to the untrained ear that sounded casual but having lived with him for almost two years have taught me that that pause means that he is not happy with the answer.
**"He won´t push it, hopefully"
Yeah….

Ebott Ville, King Dreemurr Residence
******************
The trek to Mr. Dad Guy´s house is relatively in silence and I feel comfortable with it, once inside Asgore takes the phone and calls Undyne and Alphys to be present, mom takes charge in the king´s kitchen for supper. The king himself is busy in another part of the house, Papyrus sits down in the couch with Sans and I with Chester and Eye Bone on my lap. I can see how the taller skeleton is watching Eye Bone, his curiosity is oozing in waves until Eye Bone could not bear the stare more.
"Yes Papyrus?"
"WOWIE! HOW DID YOU KNOW I WAS GOING TO ASK SOMETHING?"
"Just a feeling."
"YOU SEE, SANS AND I ARE THE ONLY SKELETON MONSTERS I HAVE EVER SEEN, SO I WONDER… ARE YOU RELATED TO US SOMEHOW?"
"… pap" Sans starts but is cut off by Eye Bone.
"Well you see, I don´t remember what or who I was before I became what you see right now so forgive me I don't have an answer to your question" he replies formally and I wonder if he is upset with reveling anything about himself.
"OH…" Papyrus looks downcast for less than a blink and then return to his normal cheery self "NYEHEHE IT´S QUITE OK MY BONE FRIEND"
"so you remember you were a different being?" The smaller skeleton asks as curious as his brother.
"Humph! Of course I was something else, I remember having arms and feet and a name!" he spats angrily at the skeleton
**"Someone is still salty"
"but now… now I just know I lost them. Only when you lose something is that you know how it is to have more." he continues sadly
There is a beat of silence in the living room but then we hear the screech of wheels on pavement signaling Undyne and Alphys arrival.
*KNOCK* * KNOCK*
"who´s there"
"Not now Sans!" Shouts a very tired Undyne
"UNDYNE!" Papyrus shouts while swinging the door open.
"Glad to see you too bonehead!" Undyne and Alphys enter the room and look at what´s on my lap.
"Oh h-hi Frisk!" the yellow lizard says while scrutinizing Eye Bone and Chester up and down.
"What do you have there Frisk, I have never seen a monster like this in the Underground!"
Alphys stuttering is gone with wonder for the unknown as she reached out for them.
"I advise that no one enters in contact with any of them" The king´s voice rumbled through the room.
"Please… do not touch them" Asgore spoke in his usual tone now, gentle and loving father tone.
"Asgore, is time to tell them" Toriel
"Wait! Tell us what?" Oh man Undyne is not happy.
Chara… do you have any idea what are they talking about?
**"Frisk… you know that I could not wander far away from the flower patch I am buried at… there is a limit on how much I can hear from Froggits and Whimsuns… Toriel and Asriel…"
Chara I´m sorry… please don´t be sad…
**"I´m fine Frisky business, it´s just… that time feels so far away now… as if it never happened at all… but it DID happen, and I was alone all that time."
But now we are together!
**"Yeah…" her red checks get redder.
"Well? What is it?" Undyne asked the ex couple as they took seats in the extra large sofas in front of us.
"About older times, old enemies… Of Shadows and Hopes"
