Summary: You don´t look so good... pal
Notes: I´m sooooo soryy for the late update, so family and stuff kept me from uploading the chapter. Hope you like it as much as I like it!Ebott Ville, Dremmur Residence, 1 year 7 months after the release of monsters and magic back in the world.
After dinner with my monster family, It´s decided to be too late, Alphys and Undyne have very early shifts in the lab and the police station respectively.
It´s hard to be an adult.
I have school tomorrow but mom is too worried with the development of things to seem to care.
Sans is not.
"hey tori, we have to go home. kid´s got school tomorrow... come on kid don't pout like that you know you have to go"
"But I don´t want to" I whine and cross my arms, because! I can´t assist to monster school until monsters get papers to teach us humans, for now they can teach in monster schools for monsters.
It´s dumb
**"Yeah dumb adults"
YEAH!
"Sans is right darling, we should go"
Chester wakes up in that moment and starts to jump around Asgore´s living room.
*boing* *boing*
"What happens to him Frisk?" Asgore asks but Eye bone beats me.
"He says 'He is coming!'"
*knock* *knock*
"Who´s there?" I ask knowing exactly who it is
"Orange" comes a male voice behind the door.
"Orange who?"
"Orange you going to let me in?"
*Child giggles*
I see mom and dunkle Sans trying to hide snickers while I get the door.
"Hi Frisky sensation!"
"Wilson!" Eye bone and I shout happily while he tries to hug me, but it´s a little bit weird with the cast still on his arm. Chester boings happily around our hugging forms.
"So how is it going young man?" There is a wide smile in his face and I can only watch him for a while.
That smile really suits him
**"Or you like when people smile, no matter who."
Yeah that too.
"Cool!"
"Oh no then let me bring you something warm, you will freeze to death!"
"Hehehe"
He ruffles my hair and I can´t stop feeling this happy.
"Good night monsters, I came for my little friends here." Wilson says after a while.
"Good night" There was a unanimous answer in the room.
It wasn´t a friendly welcome, with the exception of Papyrus, all the present were wary of the new arrival.
I look up to see Wilson´s face.
Neutral. I can´t take anything from it.
No.
I´ve seen that face before.
When speaking about Maxwell…
"I´m sorry Wilson please don´t hate them!" I blurt after making the decision that he might hate them after all I told him they did to me in the underground.
**"YOU TOLD HIM!?"
Yes… sorry I… I really didn´t know any of our conversations were real. So… I confessed a lot of things to him…
Wilson´s face is in shock and blinks twice before answering.
"What makes you think I hate them" He tries
"Because all the things…" I told you… but I let it be unsaid.
I can´t reveal that information, not now!
**"Frisk that was too close."
I know.
"Because of the broken arm and the fight with Asgore…" I correct myself in time "Just give them a chance, I promise they won´t attack you again"
"And what makes you think they can win against me sweetheart?"
What?
His eyes, the usual sky blue is there but it has a ring of red now.
Oh no, his sanity is low!
He only calls me sweetheart when he is beyond himself.
**"Friiiisk? What's happening?" Chara asks very confused turning her head between the scientist and me.
"I´m very sorry for the misunderstandings upon your arrival Wilson, but I cannot accept you here in my house until all the issues has been clarified" Asgore says with an authoritative tone, ignorant of the little detail that while insane he can very much kill him in a one swift blow.
Knowing this I try to reason with him
"Uhm Wilson-"
"It´s King Higgsbury for you… monster" Wilson says with a sneer. A crown made of black metal materializes in his head and his clothes change, a black tuxedo with strange twirls in the shoulder ends. Maxwell´s suit. The cast is gone.
"Sorry darling" He now looks at me sweetly. "What were you saying?" and tilts his head innocently.
"Please don´t hurt him"
"He hurted you" he counters
**"Uh oh" Chara
"W h a t?" Mom is fuming and will surely roast someone.
"I have never hurt Frisk" The goat man says with resolution in his voice.
**"He doesn´t remember? Or is he lying?"
Either way it hurts that he says it like that… knowing that during battle he accepted having killed me every time I told him...
"Ha that´s rich!" The now insane Shadow King says "I want you to be very careful with your next answer, if you lie again I will hurt you, Mr. Let´s start a war with humans with the six little children´s soul I killed!"
*gasp*
No one is supposed to know about the 6 children that were killed by the king's trident in the underground. It was agreed before resurfacing that we would leave that tiny secret hidden from human government.
**"Frisk why did you tell him!" The spirit calls at me frantically
I didn't! I swear!
"How did you-"
"know?"
"Yes"
"Who cares! It doesn´t matter, those children will never rest in peace because of you!" The insane scientist smiled sweetly and clapped his hands once.
Oh no this is getting out of control
I ran to a vase with several flowers in them, they are fresh as Asgore cut them from the garden this morning.
The guilty king is too shocked and starts to tremble after the accusation.
No one really has accused him for his crimes before, hearing this from someone who you are afraid of must be something else.
**"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING FRISK DO SOMETHING"
I´M DOING SOMETHING!
**"Playing with flowers is not doing something!"
"Frisk! hurry!" Eye bone shouts "He will lose complete control when his eyes turn red!"
I know! I know!
My hands work as fast as they can and my family is slowing backing off from the insane man.
One more twist!
Done!
"Wilson can you bow for me please" I say as childish as I can.
"Of course sweetheart, anything for you!" He exclaims gladly.
*Shadow King Higgsbury equips 'garland'
*It´s supper effective!
"What?" He says slowly while making a double take.
The red is fading from the blue eyes now.
"Your sanity was very low, your eyes almost got completely red" I tell him while rubbing my hands a little, even though the flowers were not thorny I think I got a splinter on my index finger.
"I don't understand, I took a nap before coming here!" The scientist tries not to shout. "My head still hurts"
"hey man, mind to explain?" Sans is the first one to recover from the near death experience.
"Mind not to throw people on walls?" Wilson´s eyes pulse red for a second and then it´s gone.
"Please no mo-more fighting" My voice trembled, I know, but when all the people I love hate each other what are you supposed to do?
**"Frisk… I didn´t know you liked him that much"
Chara… I love him as much as Mom, dunkle Sans, Alphys, Undyne, Asgore and Mettaton.
**"Oh and Papyrus~~~?"
You know the answer to that! I blush nonetheless.
Huh?
I feel arms around me, It´s Wilson, if the flower scent is anything to go by, the suit is gone too.
"I´m so sorry Frisk" He says, apologizing. "I promise to check my sanity more often ok?"
"Ok" I untangle from his arms-
His arms…
"What happened?"
"Oh you mean these" and he looks at his two exposed arms.
"Remember I told you about the explosion in my father´s lab?"
"Yes…"
"Well… These are my reminders"
Both arms were littered by old burn scars, scratches, little punctuations like marks and incisions in the flesh.
"They are not all from the explosion" I note aloud
"No" now he is serious "Mother made half of these."
…
I trace my fingers slowly through a very reddish one in his wrist… That one in his palm, it´s larger than what I remember; also there is a new mark where the now healed, broken bone, mended itself forcefully.
"Frisk…" He says sadly, wiping the tears I didn´t know I shed.
"It´s so… unfair…"
Now I´m sobbing loudly and no one can stop me.
