"There is a seventy percent chance of rain and even some thunder storms today Carrie." The handsome looking forecast speaker states with a plastic smile on his face as she eats her breakfast.

When she finished and began cleaning up, her cell phone started ringing. She numbly answers the annoying device. Whoever it was didn't have a musical ringtone yet. "Yellow, Hello."

Her ear is met with a loud cackle. So this must be Undyne. "Heya PUNK! So the gang is going into the city today for a fair. Wanna come? You can bring your two human friends!"

"By gang you mean-"

"Me, Alphys, The queen...oh I mean Tori, Frisk, Paps, and Sans." Her heart did a funny little flip in her chest at the last name. Ugh. You hang out with a guy and his friends for a week or so, bump into him in your favorite secluded locations, and seeing his magic, all leading up to you finding out your falling for him.

Way to go Krissa. You don't even know if he thinks of you as a friend. He was cautious with humans. Back to the topic, She liked the city. Nobody knew her there. No ghost stories from the town ever traveled to the city. Even when some of her fellow neighbors worked in some of the places in the city itself. Not every one restricts themselves to the familiar roads of their birthplace after all.

Undyne's voice brought her out of her daydreaming. "You still there."

"O-oh yeah! I would love to go. I forgot that that is was open. There is something I'd like to show you guys there anyway."

"Sweet! Come to the house at 10:45." Krystal glanced at her clock and saw that it was already ten.

"I won't make it in time!"

Her voice was more distant from as if pulling away fro her phone. "Papyrus! Get Sans to pick up Krissa!" Her face lit up in a fiery heat.

"N-no. He doesn't need to come get me. I'll run or..."

The pregnant pause made her anxious. The following chuckling even more so. "Oh. My. God...I ship it! Can't wait to tell Alph about this. Fuhahaha." Good lord what has she started. How did she even know? She only didn't want to cause him trouble. "Sending lover boy now."

"W-w-wait Undyne! I'm not even-"

"yo."

"-dressed..." Shit. Okay brain, keep your filter on and try not to flip out. Nice and calm. She bit her lip and murmured into the cackling phone. "I hate you Fish." Krystal hangs up and hung up. The skeleton behind her was chuckling at her dismay.

He sat down on the couch in the living room, grinning. "you need a moment?" He asks, gesturing to her blue pajamas. She nodded, face still burning like a million suns. Fuck my life. Filter...don't say it out loud.

Hurrying to her room, she shut the door somewhat loudly though she tried softening the impact. She picked up a green embroidered top with a white skirt and her sandals. Taking some hair ties, she gathered her hair into two low ponytails at the base of her head. Her gaze drifted to the unused bag of makeup she had lying on the end table of her bed. A thin layer of dust had gathered on it. Should she use some?

Nope. He will notice the change. Hair is enough for now. She walked out, crossing her arms when she saw Sans snoozing away on her sofa. Geez. Her cheeks tinged pink as she hesitated to touch him. Her hand hovered over his shoulder a moment before gently shaking him.

The monster grumbles and rolls onto his side, forgetting how small her couch is in width compared to the ones at the manor, causing him to fall onto the floor. "ow."

"Sorry. I-I tried to wake you but..."

"nah 's cool." He sat up and looked at her, her face imidiately feeling warm under his gaze. It's one thing when a human has eyes she can get lost in but those sockets were deep as an abyss. She pulls her eyes away and fidgets with her shirt hem. "you sure like green a lot."

"Yeah. It's a spring and summer color but I like it. Blue, white, yellow, green, pink, purple. All of those colors I like. So many people wear red during the winter and the leaves are red in the fall... That color is what I don't like the most."

Sans was staring at her as she rambled. His eye lights were dimmer. "your eyes." He concluded.

She nodded and looked at the clock. "We need to go if i'm going to be able to call Dayna and Bailey in time." He nodded and stood up, pulling her towards himself by the hip. Oh god. Oh god ohgodohgod. Deep breaths. "U-um w-w-what are-"

"i'm taking a shortcut. hold on tight Red." Ugh. That nickname. She wrapped her arms around him and bellow his rib cage. Her face was directly in front of his collar bone. He may be tall like most monsters but he might be the closest thing to normal human height. How was she holding him if there was air in the abdomen region anyway? Before she can ask, the world fell out from under her and her throat let out a loud scream. Her arms tightened instinctively.

Her voice went everywhere and nowhere. No echo of a room and no sound drowning her out. It was nothing. She could hear faint whispers and she tried to block them out. It was scary and thrilling all at once. When there was finally air around her and floor beneath her feet, she let out the breath she was holding.

She tilted her head to look at Sans, watching the magic flame in his socket die down. When he looked down at her, his body tensed before he pushed her away. Harder than necessary. The sudden aggressiveness made sense when she saw her reflection in the mirror. Crimson orbs staring back and slowly fading with her fear.

A painful stab of realization went through her heart. He hated her red eyes too. Well. That's okay. Just don't feel anything too much. Easier said then done. Sadness was already growing. Burgundy. Funny how she knows exactly what colors match what emotions without looking in the mirror.

Undyne ran up and squeezed her muscular arms around her waist and lifted her off the ground. "Hey! You gonna call the demon?"

"demon?"

"S-she m- Undyne! Air!" She was released, allowing her to gather herself. "She means Bailey. They met the other day. I think she's the only one that met her so far." Krissa mumbles and took out her phone to start calling her friends. Dayna was more than happy to join them and Bailey had the day off so she said yes too. "The answer is two for two. Shall I text them the address so they can come here?"

Undyne gave the thumbs up as she started digging through the coat closet. The autumn cold must be bad for her scales. It was actually warm in comparison to most days. "A lovely day outside. Perfect weather for a friendly outing." Asgore came down the stared wearing a pink polo shirt and jeans. Looking every bit like the dad he is. He smiled gently at her and placed his massive paw on her head. She has grown fond of the fatherly gesture.

She texts the address to Dayna since Bailey already knew the address from the order Asgore placed. Frisk is the next one to join the group in the living room. They run up to her and she scoops them off the ground. The young human giggles with glee as Krissa spun them around. Frisk was always kind and patient with her as she struggled to open up, They never asked anything personal. So for she can manage talking about her interests and her friends. Simple to tell stories about with facts.

When she put them down, her eyes drifted to the flower pot they somehow placed on the ground right before she caught them. Flowey hasn't spoken much to her. He seemed unsure of how to interact with her for some reason. She smiled at him anyway and waved to Alphys and Toriel as they came down. Knocks sounded at the door right before it was kicked in.

"Dayna! It's one thing when it's my house but this is rude!" Her purple pixie hair was streaked with white along side blue now. Interesting.

"They lie with the Fish Wife. I'd think they were used to it."

"Are you a fish?"

"...Evolution pictures show we used to be."

"But are you a fish?" She asked again, voice holding a sterner tone.

"No.."

"Are you Undyne?"

"No."

"Then what will you not be doing again?"

"Kicking the doors in."

"Good."

The short rockstar crossed her arms, huffing out her dissapointment. She gasped when her eyes locked onto the flower monster. "Oh my god! Look at this guy!" She lifted Flowey up in the air, beaming like a lighthouse. "What's your name?"

Said flower smiled sweetly. "Howdy. I'm Flowey. Flowey the flower."

"Oh that is too precious."

"Now put me the fuck down you imp!" The plant hissed but Dayna just coos more. The doorbell rings and the whole group turns to see Bailey standing there, eyeing the fallen door. She sighs, no doubt already knowing what happened.

Toriel clapped her paws together, long tail shifting to the side. "Alright everyone. There is quite a lot of us so we will need to take multiple vehicles. The three ladies can ride with me, Asgore, and Frisk. Everyone else take the red car and the second van.

Dayna grinned. "Daaaamn Daniel. Back at it again with the white vans."

Krissa pulls her cheek and sighs. "No vine stuff."

"Buuhrt..."

"No."

The ride to the fair consisted of small talk. Asgore was getting to know her two friends quickly. Toriel connected with Bailey over their love of plants. Krystal watched the scenery pass by as they traveled out of the monster town, outside of her own town. The trees were still green in most places despite the grass giving way to the fall rye.

Frisk plays with her hair playfully, bringing her attention back to the car. The flower was stuck in the kid's crossed legs, grumbling over things. She didn't know why he was always to angry each time she saw him. Though he acted milder with Frisk.

Krissa ruffles their fluffy bob and giggles when they clap their hands to show joy. They were so adorable. It didn't take long for them to reach the fair grounds. A clearing of beach land beside the shore. Frisk unbuckled from there seat and scrambled to the window. Their eyes were glittering with awe as they looked over the sparkling ocean. "Enjoying the view Frisk?" She asks.

They nod there head rapidly before gesturing with their hands. "It's pretty!" It took some time to understand Frisk in the beginning. Her mom had taught her the basic words when she was around the same age. Asgore pulled into a spot with the others following suit. The kid climbs out of the car and scrambled up Papyrus like a tower.

She picked up Flowey's pot and got out of the van. He looked up at her and she smiled back. He huffed, turning away. Guess he still wasn't opening up to me yet. She thought while waiting for her friends to join the monsters. Dayna was beaming like a lighthouse. "COLORFUL HUMAN! I HAVE BEEN MEANING TO ASK SOMETHING." Said human looks up expectantly. "YOUR APPEARANCE IS ODD. ARE YOUR EYES NORMALLY SO RED AND TEETH SO SHARP?" Frisk looked down from the tall skeleton's shoulders with interest.

"Eh, my eyes are fake. The color is anyway. My teeth a naturally sharp because...I'm a vampire!" She grins, making chomping motions. Bailey rolls her eyes. "Pffft, don't mind these two girls. They're non believers."

"Vampires are not real."

"Neither were monsters now."

... Bailey couldn't say anything against that.

Flowey brought her attention away from her friends when he spoke. "Chara, Why do you keep touching me petals?" He growls. Ah, that name again. He was the only one that keeps using it. Frisk had explained that Chara was an old friend of his and that she looked almost exactly like them. If it made Flowey feel better about openning up, she didn't mind.

Was she? She looked down to she that her thumb was indeed stroking one of the velvet petals. She let go and smiled apologetically. "Sorry. I love the feel of flowers. It's a bad habit. Sorry for being a little rude." Sans taps her on the shoulder and points up. Frisk had their arms out to take the flower monster.

Krissa found herself drifting behind the group as they all made their way to the gates. Her eyes looked at the pairs of feet and her mind wandered elsewhere. Her boss noticed this and fell back to hug her from the side. "Did you take your medicine today?"

"No. I didn't feel like I'd have one of those days. None of those signs. I think it's just a passing episode. I will be better once we start having fun." She returns the hug before getting into line for ticket bands. The sun rays were getting warmer on her back as the morning progresses. Krissa watched as the monsters discussed plans.

Toriel claps her paws together. "We will meet in this area every two hours to check in. Split into groups and don't get separated."

"Yes, mom." Krystal lets the joking phrase slip before she had a chance to think about. Her heart tugged painfully hard in her chest. Her eyes widen when she realized that despite the intent, she had meant those words. Toriel has been like a mother to her ever since she started to visit more. "S-sorry I, I uh..." She spots a familiar bathroom sign and turns to run for it.

A large gentle paw rests on her shoulder. She looks up cautiously at the tall monster and swallows. "Child. It is alright if you wish to call me mother."

Her heart swelled. "R-really?"

"Of course Krystal."

She nods and follows frisk. She had no choice since they grabbed her by the hand. Sans followed behind as the only other companion. Bailey called out saying she will catch up after going to the restroom. Frisk signs that they would be at the yoyo. It was the ride with swings. Krysta got up on the seats and clasped the chain around her skirt and looked behind her at Frisk and ahead of her where Sans sat.

He was looking at the machine at the center with interest. The arms of the ride start lifting as the center rotates. A bubble of laughter leaves her throat as she feels air hitting her face. She yelped when the arms started tilting up and down. She couldn't see Sans' expression but he could hear his chuckling. The deep sound was warm and full of mirth.

The ride ends and Frisk is already trying to drag her off to another ride just as Bailey caught up. They went on mostly small rides. Teacups and other spinning things. "Sans. There is a big top ride up ahead. Don't freak out about it though."

"why would i freak out?"

"You'll see."

Bailey grins and follows her up the ramp into what indeed looked like a giant top. The inside was lit by florescent lights in the colors of pink and green. People were lining up against the walls. Each in front of a dark black panels. Sans looks at the one he stands in front of and then at a man doing a handstand.

The ride starts up and everybody leans into their respective panel. The skeleton jolted when he realized he couldn't move. "Is this... Gravity magic?"

She struggled to turn her head towards him. "Nope. Science and engineering is what makes rides work. We'll start spinning so and don't be surprised about the magnets shifting. The top has to balance itself when it tilts." Krissa explains. She squeaks when she felt the ride begin to spin. It's exhilarating not being able to see anything but the darkness and flashing lights around her.

Frisk was grinning with silent laughter while she and her boss squealed. There was a rattling sound coming from the monster beside her. The whole experience made her laugh until the ride came to a halt and the bones stopped rattling. She giggled at the ridiculous reaction his own body had to the movement.

"You okay Sans?"

"er... yeah. i'm picking the next thing. after rattling me up, it's only fair that i exact revenge." Oh boy. He leads the three humans through the park, eye lights scanning for the perfect place. Frisk looked like they couldn't wait to do whatever it is. "there." He points one phalange towards a spook house. Fuck. No.

Krystal turned and tried to leave but frisk yanked her towards the building with the strength a kid should not have. Bailey sighed remorsefully. "Frisk. I think you should cover your ears once you go in."

Sans didn't know what to expect. He wasn't going in there. Human decorations were, for lack of a better word, disturbing. Watching the two women go in wit frisk, he leaned against the wall to take a nap when a familiar voice called out. "Hey bonehead!"

"sub dyne."

"Where's Ruby and the punk?"

"inside."

"In this haunte-"

"HOLY SHIT! NO NONONO. FRISK GET AWAY FROM THE MUTATED RAT."

Undyne's eye widens like a complete circle. "Was that..."

"FUCK." A yelp and a scream. "WHERE ARE THEY FUCKING COMING FROM?! THERE ARE NO DOORS!" A long and louder scream. "I. AM. DONE."

He didn't need to wait long for the younger, now crimson eyed, woman coming out the other door without looking at them as she stormed off. Frisk came out afterwards being held by Bailey as they shake. Undyne stopped gaping long enough to ask, "Those shouts weren't Krissa right?"

"They were."

"But she's so...UUUUHG...Nice and sweet!"

Bailey chuckles, handing Sans the kid. "Well... Krissa hates being in those houses and watching horror movies. She gets the mouth of a sailor when she is scared. We should probably go find her."

They split up to go looking, promising to still meet up with Toriel at the front at the designated checkup time. Sans could usually feel out someone's soul wavelength but hers was so quiet. She can be anywhere. Lost in the louder waves like a raft in an ocean. He was passing some game stalls and food stands when voices caught his attention.

He put the kid down on a bench, telling them to wait. Frisk was a bit out of it. Most likely they were getting tired from all of the excitement. A deep one was saying something he couldn't make out yet. Another two voices have a whispered conversation to each other. "Maaaan, did you see those tits? Who she fooling, dressing all modest and shit."

"Richy just gotta work his magic tongue to get the slut coming back with us."

This so called Richy begins speaking again. "What is a pretty lady like you doing alone? No friends with you to have fun? Well if you don't mind, we can keep you company. Maybe even have an after party." This felt wrong. The way the man's voice was low and husky with lust irritated him.

His soul burned with the next thing he heard. "N-no I... L-l-let go..." Krissa's voice was shaking and warbled with a cry. He was having none of it. With a snap of his fingers, he appeared before them, blocking the three men from seeing her crying face. One look showed that the shade of her eyes were even brighter than when she left the spook house.

And for once, he wasn't unnerved by the color.

She isn't that demon child.

She was a defenseless human.

One his soul demanded to protect.

"hey there pals." He grinned as they pales from the sight of him. These humans were barely taller than him. One was even shorter. "you three... want to have a bad time?" He growls darkly.
