VISITING THE DOCTOR
A normal as it can get week passed and Frisk's self image and confidence was slowly building itself back up. It certainly helped that her friends and uncle kept her company as well as Sans being all the more affectionate in a cute, innocent way. Sans wants to kiss her passionately but is afraid to since he doesn't want to scare her off. Dinner is always intense since Sans and Papyrus glare at each other while eating. When that happens, Frisk just eats with her head down, since she can't really bring herself to look at Papyrus without feeling awkward anyway. She wanted to get over her ptsd immediately, all at the same time, changing Papyrus into a cinnamon roll. No not literally, you silly readers you. But because of a weird exchange between her and the now male doctor that had previously happened, she knew she wouldn't dare go there to his lab alone. She, unlike most people, had learned her lesson from her previous mistake. She knows she cannot openly trust anyone.
"You want to bribe into making you a few gadgets that will get rid of your ptsd and make Papyrus innocent? I don't blame you for wanting to change how things are, but what are you going to do if there is nothing he can do to change how things are? Sometimes, this is life, and it sucks," said Undyne.
Frisk was sipping her milkshake glumly at a booth at Grillby's with Undyne sitting on the other side, drinking a glass of water.
"I just want to at least try and change things for the better. If there is nothing he can do, I'll stay determined through all the thorns that stab at me," said Frisk.
Her tone wasn't as convincing as her words, but Undyne knew she was trying.
"Well, alright. I'll let Chara know so he can come and lend us some extra muscle just in case. It's a good thing you told me about that weird encounter you and the doctor had before," said Undyne.
Frisk looked down out of guilt.
"There's something else you need to know. Normally, after what Papyrus did to me, I would have loaded. The reason why I didn't load to stop anything from happening, is because a version of myself who sees and knows everything told me loading can leave side effects on the timeline since I am still a teenager and loading is linked with my hormones. Alphys used to be a woman, and you and her were in a relationship. I loaded once, and a side effect was Alphys turning into a man, and you guys weren't in a relationship," said Frisk.
Undyne blinked a few times.
"Really? Alphys used to be a chick and I was a lesbian?" asked Undyne.
Frisk looked up.
"You mean you don't even like women anymore?" asked Frisk.
Undyne shook her head.
"Not my style," she responded.
Frisk felt a little hopeful.
"Maybe you and Alphys can get back together then!" said Frisk.
"Whoa whoa whoa! Just because I like men and only men now, doesn't mean I'm going to go out with Alphys. Especially since not what you told me happened or almost happened," said Undyne, waving her hands in the air.
Frisk rolled her eyes.
"Every male monster I meet tries to get with me. If you go by that logic, you won't be with anyone," said Frisk.
"There hasn't been one monster who hasn't hit on you?" asked Undyne.
"Only one hasn't. But it's because he's already married and in love with his wife," said Frisk, smiling.
Undyne nodded. They finished hanging out at Grillby's and went back to the house where they saw Chara giving Papyrus evil glares. Papyrus was doing good at ignoring him. It was a little ridiculous in Frisk's opinion. She knows Papyrus had wronged her and everyone was mad at him, but now they're going over the top.
"Well, Chara is still stuck as a 10 year old mentally, though his ghost looks the same age as me," thought Frisk.
"Chara," called Frisk.
Chara's face turned normal as he looked at Frisk and Undyne. He gave Papyrus one last childish look and flew over to them.
"What's up?"
"We're going to ' lab. Care to come with?" asked Undyne.
"Sure! Anything to get away from -RAPEY!" Chara shouted the last bit so Papyrus could hear him.
Sans poked his head out of the room upstairs and cocked his brow bone at Chara.
"Not you, obviously," said Chara.
"I know. But that was random," replied Sans as he stuck his head back in the room.
"Well, let's get going," said Frisk as she put on her fluffy coat.
Chara got in Frisk's body to get ready to take control when necessary, then Frisk and Undyne hopped in her car. Undyne was shivering.
"Undyne? Why didn't you put on something warmer?" asked Frisk.
"Because Hotland suuuuuucks," shivered Undyne.
"Uhh, ok then," said Frisk.
Undyne turned on her car and drove to Hotland. On the way there there was a sign that said "Blooky's Spooky Mixtapes. Buy 1 get 1 free". Frisk smiled.
"So he finally finished his mixtape. It's been six years. Glad he finally finished it," thought Frisk.
They got to Alphys' lab, and Undyne was already sweating. She had her two 5 liters from last time and had them filled with water using the water cooler in Hotland. Already she started chugging. Frisk timidly looked at the lab. She hadn't felt this scared to see it since the first time she ever saw it. Back when she first saw it, it was so ominous and spooky. Still wasn't anything compared to how she felt when she fell down to the True Lab. She wished Alphys was still female. She was so shy and sweet. Alphys was like an older sister to her. Male Alphys is forward and rude, but acts gentlemanly so he can get what he wants and needs. All he is is a creep. He's nothing like the real Alphys.
"Come on kid, I'm dying out here. Literally," said Undyne as she drank more water.
Frisk rang the door bell since the door was locked. Soon after the door opened, and they walked in. There was air conditioning in the building, so Undyne felt immediate relief, and she stuck her waters in the refrigerator. Alphys came downstairs to greet them.
"Hello, Frisk and Undyne. What can I do for you two lovely ladies?" asked Alphys.
He undressed them both with his eyes. Undyne made a disgusted face at him and took a step forward a tiny bit to show she wasn't afraid. Frisk decided to do the same.
"Doctor, is it possible for you to make something to completely get rid of ptsd?" asked Frisk.
Alphys tapped his chin thoughtfully.
"I'm not sure! But I would love to try," said Alphys.
"Okay, fair point. Another question. Do you think you can make something that can turn anyone into an innocent person?" asked Frisk.
"My answer is the same as before, dear. If I can make these things, how will you pay?" asked Alphys.
"With gold, of course," said Frisk.
Frisk was wearing a long sleeved turtleneck sweater that was purple and had a blue dog on it and bell bottom jeans with boots. Her hair was only brushed. She hadn't had it cut since she fell down, so it went way past her back. It almost reached her ankles. Her skin wasn't so pale anymore since she has been taking regular care of herself, mostly because Sans and her friends were so worried about her when she was pale, and she didn't want them to worry anymore. Alphys' smile wavered a bit.
"Why don't you lovelies come with me to the lab and we can get started?" asked Alphys.
"Why do we have to come with you to the lab? Isn't there a time frame you can give us so we can just go home and come back? Or maybe just call to tell us if you're done or if it's impossible?" asked Undyne.
"Nonsense! I thought it would be nice to give you a treat to let you see how the great doctor makes gadgets. If it is possible, making them shouldn't take too long," said Alphys.
Frisk shuddered a bit. Undyne knelt down to look at her.
"We don't have to go to his lab. If you want to grin and bear life, we can turn around now and go home, and continue like we've been. But also remember, I won't let anyone hurt you," promised Undyne.
Frisk shakily nodded, then took a deep breath.
"Let's go," said Frisk.
Undyne frowned a bit. Mostly because Alphys gives her the creeps, and she doesn't like the idea of going somewhere with a creep where no one can hear you scream. They walked past screens on the wall, and eventually made it to where he keeps the sticky tables. He wiped off a table real quick, and made some blueprints. Smiling, he rolled out a chair.
"Sorry, this is the only chair I got. I guess you could take turns sitting," said Alphys.
Undyne and Frisk eyed it suspiciously. It appeared normal, but that's just what they want you to think! Undyne and Frisk just looked at each other. Frisk took a sip from Undyne's 5 liter of water. She was so nervous her throat was dry. Alphys was busy typing on his huge computer to try and see if making what Frisk wanted would be possible.
"Hmmm," Alphys hummed.
Frisk looked up, hopeful.
"Nah, that couldn't possibly work."
Her face fell and she resorted to fiddling with her fingers. Undyne decided he wasn't dangerous. She only thought this because he was being extremely boring and nerdy. She smirked at herself for getting so worked up over nothing and sat down in the chair. The chair pinned Undyne to it from her wrists, and it nailed itself to the floor. Alphys looked over shocked. Undyne struggled to get free.
"Doctor, I think there's something wrong with your chair," grunted Undyne.
Alphys rushed over, appearing to be worried. Until he started smiling. Sudden fear washed over Undyne in an instant. Chara took control of Frisk, and had her head down.
"With you all tied up, I can do what I want! As a nerdy dinosaur, you don't really get laid. Yeah, I'm tired of being a virgin. You look so sweet, though. Maybe I'll play with you when I'm done with this little pile of sugar," said Alphys.
Alphys walked over to Frisk. Undyne then remembered Chara was inside of Frisk, and that he has most likely taken over Frisk by now.
"Come little girl if you know what is good for you," ordered Alphys.
Frisk's body and hands twitched, more like glitched. In a split second, her whole outfit had changed. When she looked up, black pools of nothingness was in the place of where her eyes should be, and was crying blood. Alphys was scared, but didn't want to show it yet. He smacked her face hard in a last ditch effort to control her. Her head turned in the direction of where he slapped her, but she turned her head back. Blood poured from where Alphys had clawed her. She touched her cheek, and looked at the fresh blood on her fingers. She hissed like a cat, grabbed a nearby needle, and plunged forward at Alphys. When she spoke, her voice sounded doubled, but unlike how it usually sounds when Chara speaks through her. This time, it was Frisk speaking through Chara's spirit.
"I don't want to kill you. I will kill you if you don't work on the things I told you to work on. After all, I have determination on my side. I can get by with brute will if I have to. I just want a chance to make things easier for everybody. I'm going to get off you and you're going to free Undyne. If you keep working, you will live. Stop working, you will die. Get the picture, doctor?"
Alphys gulped and nodded his head. Frisk's face contorted into the ugliest angry face ever made, snapped back her hand that held the needle and got off Alphys. He slowly got up with his hands in the air, slowly made his way over the Undyne and freed her. Undyne responded by punching him in the face and spitting on him. After that, he got back to work immediately.
"Thanks for pulling through, Chara," thanked Undyne.
"It was both of us this time. All I did was over power Alphys, but Frisk was the one who made that terrifying speech. Our little girl is getting a backbone," said Chara through Frisk.
"Nice. But uh, do you always have to make her face leak when you take over?" asked Undyne as she now felt uncomfortable.
"When you die from a tragic death, you tend to make things leak and look creepy. This is just my face through her face," said Chara.
"It's really creepy though," shuddered Undyne.
Frisk turned towards Undyne.
"What?" asked Chara as he made Frisk shrug her shoulders.
"Excuse me," said Alphys.
Frisk and Undyne turned to look at Alphys. Frisk raised the needle and Undyne summoned a spear.
"I tried everything I could, but what you're requesting is impossible. What wasn't impossible was the gadget that can give bad monsters the will to be good. It doesn't guarantee a change, but it will awaken the part in a monster's conscience that tells them to be good. If the monster is truly evil, they will ignore this awakened part of their brain and continue to be bad. As for your ptsd, there's nothing I can do for that other than tell you to stick with family and friends. If it gets worse, seek professional help," said Alphys.
He handed her the gadget that will awaken the good conscience in monsters.
"Mind if I test it on you?" asked Chara through Frisk.
"I see you don't trust me, which was to be expected. Go ahead," said Alphys.
Frisk pressed the gun-like gadget, and a lime green circle came from it and attached to Alphys' forehead, and the green circle went through his head.
"Did it work?" asked Frisk.
"Yes. Frisk, I'm sorry. Undyne, I'm sorry," apologized Alphys.
Frisk smiled.
"Alright Undyne. Let's go," said Frisk.
"What about payment?" asked Alphys.
Frisk slowly turned around, her face leaking.
"You being alive should be payment enough," said Chara.
Alphys simply nodded his head, then waved to them goodbye. They got back to the house. Frisk was excited. She had high hopes that Papyrus could change. After all, when she did a genocide run, it was him who told her anyone can be a good person if they just try. He was her best friend, and she wanted to save him from himself. She knocked on Papyrus' door. A couple minutes passed. She knocked again. This time, he answered the door.
"Oh, human. What is it?" asked Papyrus.
Frisk was near tears. Even though he had touched her and hurt her on the inside by betraying her, she still saw him as her best friend. An older brother figure.
"I want to try and make you better, Papyrus. You don't remember, but in another timeline, when I was struggling to be good, you told me that you believed anyone can be a good person if they just try. Will you come downstairs and sit on the couch?" asked Frisk.
Papyrus was shocked. He wasn't expecting Frisk to forgive him so easily. Not since he was having trouble forgiving himself. He hadn't meant to hurt Frisk. He just didn't know how to handle being aroused for the first time. He came out of his room and shut the door, then he walked downstairs and sat on the couch.
"I thought you hated me," said Papyrus.
"I wanted to. But you used to be the older brother I never had," said Frisk.
"Ah. So you love me like family. I can never be like my brother and have you," sadly said Papyrus.
He was on the verge of tears. He felt so alone. And he felt like an evil monster. Frisk aimed the gadget at Papyrus' skull, and fired. The lime green circle went into his skull, and he immediately started hearing his positive conscience talking to him.
"Thank you, human. I would give you a hug, but I'm sure-
He was cut off by Frisk hugging him. He kept his hands to his side, and let his tears fall.
