Heaven's Prologue is here! I should warn you that there is some strong language that I censored. You guys know how Undyne can get.

Chapter Two: Heaven's Prologue
Seven souls... All it would take to break The Barrier was seven souls... The King of the Underground had collected six... But now he's dead... And the souls are drifting away, searching for new hosts to take them in before Aster's magic could corrupt them...
The six adolescents each owned a soul with a special trait...
Bravery...
Justice...
Kindness...
Patience...
Integrity...
Perseverance...
After the defeat of Omega Flowey, the soul of Kindness darted for the Ruins, and the soul of Justice hurried towards Waterfall. The other souls returned to their respective bodies, which were stuck in a catatonic state. The King didn't wish to kill the children, but rather use their souls to break the barrier, then give the children new souls afterwards. However, Aster's magic had already begun to influence the four souls, so even though the teenagers were brought back to life while wielding magic, they lost their soul traits and turned gray...
Kindness and Justice were lucky...

Undyne... Spear of Justice... Wake up...!
Undyne snapped awake to find herself back in Waterfall, fully clothed in white battle armor. How odd... She knew she was dead, that goddamn flower caught her by surprise with his so called "friendliness pellets". And right when she was going to attack the human too. How was she still alive?
"What the hell!?" She shouted in disbelief.
Relax, partner...
"Who the heck are you?"
My name is Corey, but if you want to be technical... I'm the soul of Justice.
"The soul of-! No, that's impossible!"
Lady, you've been dead for six months. *Sigh* Let me catch you up on what has been going on...
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Um... Excuse me, Miss Toriel?
"Eh?"
The caretaker of the Ruins, Toriel, found herself lying on the ground, wearing a pretty, green dress. Strange. The last thing she remembered was getting ambushed by a talking flower right after Frisk left the Ruins.
"Hello?"
Its me! Kira!
"Kira!?" Toriel reacted, getting up quickly to look around for the child. "I thought Asgore killed you! I'm so happy you're-"
About that... I actually am dead. Check your soul, you'll see what I mean.
Toriel summoned her soul, but it wasn't hers. It was Kira's soul, the soul of Kindness.
"*Gasp* What on Earth...?"
That mean flower killed you. Although I am a soul, I couldn't bear to let you go... so I floated over here and revived you!
"Uh..."
Toriel looked like she was about to cry. Kira really was a sweet girl...
Oh no no no no NO! I'm so sorry. Are you okay? Was it something I said?
"N-no, my child... *sniff* Everything is alright. You have my thanks."
My pleasure! Now um, there are a lot of things you need to know. We should probably leave the Ruins though.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
"Alphys?" Undyne called for her friend right outside the Hotland Laboratory. "Are you here? Look, I dunno what you've heard, but I'm alive."
Are you sure she's even here, Undyne?
"I'm positive, Corey. Oh, and thanks for making me able to walk around Hotland without drying up."
No problem, ma'am.
Undyne knocked on the entrance to the lab.
"Alphys, can you hear me?"
The entrance slowly creaked open. It was as though somebody broke in...
"Oh no..." Undyne mumbled under her breath before running inside.
"Oh no"?
"Someone had to have broken in!"
Be careful!
Undyne turned the corner, only to find the hallway covered with dust and ashes. White lab coats were sliced into mere pieces.
"Dammit! Alphys, you better not be dead!"
Undyne dashed down the hallway, turned every corner after corner, but there was only more dust. Who the hell could've wreaked such carnage while she was gone?
"She can't be dead. There's no way! She can't-"
Undyne, calm down! Will ya take a deep breath and slow down?
"But-"
NO BUTS! Just inhale, then exhale...
Undyne followed Corey's instructions, breathing in, then out slowly.
Feel better yet?
"Yes." Undyne replied calmly. "But I've still got to find Alphys. Can you maybe sense for some sort of pulse? Maybe for a monster soul?"
I mean, I guess I could try...
Suddenly, Undyne could hear a nearby pulse. No... two!
"Fuhuhu! I think I found her!"
Your welcome.
Undyne took two right turns, then a left. She found herself in the computer lab, a room where Alphys could watch specific areas in the Underground... And the floor was covered with blood...
"Alphys, I-"
But Alphys wasn't the only old friend she'd be seeing.
Holy sh**.
"Un...dyne?" Alphys struggled to speak before the killer pulled his rapier out of her.
Alphys too had crumbled to dust like the rest of her associates. A unholy massacre that Undyne could believe she saw.
"You... killed Alphys!" Undyne cried, summoning a spear of light into her right hand, then creating more in mid-air. "Why? Who the f*** are you to kill such innocent people!?"
The murderer had slowly turned around. He wore a crimson fur coat, black and yellow shorts, and crimson sneakers. A skeletal friend who looked all too familiar to her.
"S-Sans...?"
"Heh. What a familiar name. But its not mine, not anymore..."
The Knight of Arcana... Undyne, this guy is bad news!
"My name is Onyx. And I believe you are in my way."
The amber-eyed skeleton held his rapier in one hand, and a satchel in the other.
"Old friend or no..." Undyne bellowed, fury in her eyes. "I won't let you get away with genocide! You'll be punished for your treachery!"
"In a world of insurrection? Oh please, Undyne. In this world, my master makes the laws, and I carry them out."
Onyx lunged at Undyne with his weapon.
"Take this!"
Undyne sent her spears of light at Onyx, but he dodge them all without breaking a sweat.
"Is that the best you've got, Sushi?"
Undyne leaped into the air and threw the spear she held, sending extra spears along with it. Onyx leaped up towards the spears, not to dodge, but to strike.
"斬鉄剣" (Zantetsuken)
Onyx swung his rapier three times, shattering every spear she threw.
"What the-!"
He glided at Undyne, ready to strike.
Look out, Undyne!
Undyne's weapon clashed with Onyx's several times before the two warriors landed on the ground. They weren't even tired in the slightest.
"Impressive, I must say." Onyx spoke in praise. "Although I can't say it's been fun. Better luck next time."
Onyx threw a flash bomb, blinding Undyne and giving him enough time to escape with the satchel. When Undyne's sight returned to normal, she punched the wall.
"Frick! Goddamn you, Sans! Damn you!"
Undyne, relax! It's going to be alright.
"Alright?" Undyne bickered. "Nothing is alright, Corey! My king is dead. My best friend is dead. My colleague's brother became a f***ing sociopath! What else is going on? Huh!?"
Bitching about your problems isn't helping.
"Grrrr... That is it. If I'm going to subdue Sans..."
Onyx.
"Then I'm gonna need to pay a little visit to his hometown..."

The four teens have risen...
Blank sleights... No memories of their previous lives...
They can wield magic, and yet their soul trait is Neutral...
Padric, arise...
Barry, awaken...
Ivan, stir...
Penelope, emerge...
You are all Neutral. Neither good like Undyne, nor evil, like Aster. Decide for yourselves who you shall be, if not Neutral...
But just remember... you all basically killed children of your age... both of whom are now gone from this world...
One of them, I believe her name was... Chara... Yes...
You dared her to fall into the Underground...
If you hadn't, she wouldn't have went and did something stupid... and died...
The other, her name was Frisk...
She tried to escape through the barrier... But you see, only hybrids can pass through the barrier...
She dissolved into thin air, became at one with nature... All because you four had to fall before she did...
Your sins shall not go unpunished...
Down here, who knows what you will get if your misdeeds continue...
