(Q&AWTG)
Zara laid unconsious, where her aunt Frisk fell and her mother before her. Having flipped over as she fell, she was face first into the flowers, drooling out the tea she held in her mouth. As she fell asleep, her instincts kicked in, activating the feather falling, cushioning her fall. The voice came back in her sleep, not leaving Zara alone. "See? What did I tell you? It's not your choice, you hurt people by nature." The voice asked.
"I-...It was an accident, it was your fault." Zara stated.
"Did you see what you did to his face? Maybe these will get infected and he'll get really sick. Nah, people there will keep that from happening." The voice said, turning into Finn, showing Zara the gashes, how deep they went. They then walked up to Zara, noses touching. "He probably just hates you now." The voice taunted.
"He will understand, you're the real demon here." Zara spat.
"If you really care... just let it end. Just give in... it'll be over soon enough demon. Then all of them will be safe and get to be happy." The voice stated, turning into a more demonic version of Zara. "The world will live in peace. And you'll be burning in hell where you belong." The voice stated, dissapearing
In the meantime, Zach was still Searching for Zara. Zach started panicking when he detected someone else's scent. "Someone was with her. I don't recognize the scent but it definitely goes the same way." He said to himself, giving the others time to catch up. "Oh no... No no no no..." Zach stated as he followed the scent to the hole in the cave. He sniffed the area. Something was wrong. "... C-Chara... whatever was spilled here smells like buttercups." Zach muttered.
"Oh Shite, this is anything but good. Little me didn't last a day before coming to their demise, and they were over twice Zara's age!" Chara exclaimed as Zach grabbed her hand and jumped in. Zach began featherfalling near the bottom. The two of them saw Zara shivering. They run over to check on her.
"Zara! Zara, can you hear us sweetie?" Zach and Chara shouted, shaking Zara.
"M not a demon stwp sayn that." Zara mumbled, passed out in an awkward position. Zara's skin was clammy as.
"She's not waking up... We need to get her to a hospital, now! Sans, take us there ASAP!" Zach shouted. Sans teleported down the hole and teleported the trio out.
"kid doesn't look too good, did her attacker poison her?" Sans asked as he teleported the trio to the local monster infirmitary. Chara confirmed it with a nod.
"We need help! We think our daughter's been poisoned, buttercups probably. Please, help her!" Zach shouts, grabbing the attention of the same nurse who treated his bullet wound.
Meanwhile, Emma watched as Toriel healed up Finn's face from when Zara accidentally hit him. "So Zara did this during a nightmare? That's really bad, she's been having nightmares telling her that she's a demon who will hurt people she cares about. If she woke up from that to see that she tore up your face... no wonder she ran. She thinks she's gonna hurt you." She told Finn.
"I really like her, but she never seemed to like me, and now she probably hates me." Finn stated.
"Look, Finn... she cares about you alot, I know you don't really get it yet... but it'd really help her if you showed her that you care..." Emma replied, consoling the human.
"She does? But how do I show her I care?" Finn asked.
A while later, everyone had shown up in the waiting room with Zach, Chara and Zara. "Zara? Can you hear us? Please wake up... Please..." Zach said, silently crying.
"Dr Matthews would like to see you now." Georgia, a skeleton nurse stated, leading Zach, Chara and Zara to the poisons control unit.
DR Matthews checked Zara's vital signs and hooked Zara up to a soul monitor as well as a magic drip to flush out the toxins that Zara didn't already drool out. "She has a slim chance of surviving, it depends on the conertration of buttercups your daughter consumed." DR Matthews stated.
Back in the waiting room, Emma returned with snacks and drinks. "Alright, I went back to the house and got snacks and drinks for all of you" Emma stated, handing them out. Zara didn't realised that the bottle with Finn's name on it was spiked with the Aphrodaisics.
(Later, AOTPT)
Chara heard a kid screaming for help outside of Asgore's house, they had only just arrived there for the week. Chara went outside to see a girl in tattered clothes and bad shape. Chara immediately noticed danger in front of them, a teenage boy who was chasing after the frightened little girl. Chara grabbed her knife and fended the boy off.
"Are you okay, where are your parents?" Chara asked, trying to heal the girl.
"...t-they're d-dead... a- a d-demon killed them." The girl said. Chara convulesed. They looked over their shoulder and pulled out a tranquilliser dart from between their shoulder blades."I-I don't want anyone else to lose their family like that..." The girl stated.
"There may be...more than...you...think..." Chara stated, before they passed out.
Chara woke up in a strange room, they felt dizzy, seeing themself everywhere. Frightened, Chara tried resseting. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't bring up their save file. "It won't work." A voice next to them said. Chara looked up to see a ghost version of themself.
"H-how do you know!?" Chara exclaimed.
"Something keeps everyone from resetting in this timeline... I think someone here has a higher determination than us." Ghost Chara explained.
"Where are we?" Chara asked, looking around the room.
"If we're being honest, death row."Ghost stated. Charra's vision cleared and they could see many different Charas in many different shapes and sizes. "Meet the other us's. The lovebirds are PB and J boy and girl respectively, that's Mirror, they're a swap Chara, that's Smol, and that's Karma, because they can be a real bitch. I'm Ghost, we can't all be Chara, so we have nicknames, so might as well pick one... not that it tends to matter for long... Mirror's the only safe one. They don't know whether to kill the swap Charas or Frisks... So until they decide, they're safe." Ghost explained, pointing to all the Chara's.
"Wow, that's a lot of AU's." Chara exclaimed, noticing Smol looked like a toddler version of them (Littletale) and Karma was dressed in red and black (Underfell). "What's going on here?" Chara asked.
"... like I said, death row." Ghost explained. They heard kicking and screaming coming from a Chara who had fluffy hair and was about the same age as them. "... I'll be back." Ghost said as they faded out and followed the guards. Ghost came back a few minutes later. "... they took her to Grillby's." Ghost stated.
"What's so bad about going to Grillby's?" Chara asked.
"... it's run by some Horrortale monsters they brought in to help get rid of us. Chara's get put in cells out back, get taken in screaming one at a time, then it stops. All that ever comes out is bloody sweaters and bones. It's probably the worst way to go here... I try to comfort them before it happens... someone has to be there for them." Ghost explained. The two of them heard footsteps. "We'll talk tomorrow, try to stay alive." Ghost said, staying alive.
A robot clad in black and purple, with black hair, red eyes and messy raven black hair walked in, assesing which Chara is next. The robot woman appeared to be scanning the souls, looking for those with the highest LOVE first. Chara was unsure at first, but they swore they saw the hands turn into four bladed fans, with an image of a soul broken in half on each of the blades. the metal the robot was made of was the darkest black Chara had ever seen.
(Meanwhile, back in Q&AWTG)
Zara finally woke up from her slumber."D-daddy?" She groaned."I don't feel very well." She stated, holding her head.
"Thank goodness you're ok. P-please don't do that again, we were so worried. We love you, I don't care what any fu- what any voice in your head tells you..." Zach rambeled on as he and Chara hugged Zara tightly.
Utf burst in to the room with news from the other universe. "GUYS! The little Chara is missing somewhere." Utf shouted.
"Oh no... If they got them... We need to find out how to find them... if anyone comes back to attack us, we need to get info out of them." Zach stated.
"I might be able to help, I was looking into other AU's for more info and I saw a room full of Charas, including little Chara and Underswap Chara. You would not believe it, but I also saw a dark and despicable version of myself guarding the place, checking the stats of each Chara." Utf exclaimed.
