It was quiet in the Underground, all the Monsters have left for the surface. Many things were left behind, leaving them to be consumed by nature. Structures have begun to decay since not being treated. What remained intact was the Flower Field untouched by rotting cave. A single Flower pops up from the ground, in the middle of the Flower Fields. The flower seemed to be groggy, waking from a deep slumber.
"Ugh, where am I? What happened?" The flower looked at his surroundings, it took him a while but he remembered.
"Oh right… they left." The Flower said to himself. He was the only one remaining in the underground. A sharp pain came to his mind making him scream in pain.
"What is this pain? Why does this keep happening to me?" He saw an image of his old self at the ground and the flowers around him covered in blood. Frisk stood above him, staring at him showing no emotion yet crying at the same time.
"...Frisk… don't…"
Frisk didn't respond and keep looking down at him. The Vision stopped and so did the pain. The Flower was both angry and confused, these visions were becoming too much. He needed answers. He disappeared into the ground and appeared near where the barrier was. The Flower stared at it, he never once thought of leaving, but now with no one around and the Visions getting worse and worse, he had no choice.
He went underground and pop outside reaching the surface for the first time. Although he won't admit it to anyone, the surface was beautiful. The mountains that span for miles, the large structures and the night skies revealing the stars. The pain interrupted the sightseeing, becoming worse. He'll sightsee later, but for now, he has to meet up with his Family.
~~===X===~~
"Do I really have to wear this?" Undyne was wearing a dress, waiting for her friends. Papyrus and Sans were wearing suits, sitting on the couch.
"Come on Undyne, aren't you excited for our first fancy party?"
"Why fancy? Can we just have a Normal party."
"It's an Anniversary. Two years have passed since we came to the surface. The Humans wanted to have this party so why not." Sans explained to Undyne. They heard footsteps coming down the stairs, everyone looked and saw Frisk coming down wearing a suit. However, what their attention was Frisk's brand new glasses. Frisk has been having trouble seeing for a while and it turns out they needed glasses.
"Aww, you look, wonderful dear," Toriel said making Frisk blush. Undyne phone rang, she checked it and placed it back.
"Asgore and Alphys arrived at the party. Let's not keep them waiting." Everyone was ready when suddenly a flower pop up from the floor.
"Howdy, finding you lot was much quicker than I imagined." Undyne formed a spear and held it at his face. "Hey, easy, I only want to talk."
"Talk!? Why should we listen to you?" Undyne held her spear closer press it against his face. Sans grabs the spear removing from it Flowey's face.
"Calm down Undyne, remember he is the prince."
"Do not call me that."
"Sure, so tell us what you wanted to talk about?"
"I-" Flowey spotted Frisk glaring at him showing no emotion. He froze in place terrified of what they'll do to him. Confused everyone looked at Frisk. They saw Frisk smiling and getting close to Flowey.
"It's okay Flowey, you can trust us."
"I- Um- I actually want to talk to Sans."
"Me?"
"Yeah, in private. Please."
"Sans are you sure about this?" Undyne said concerned about him. Frisk tugged his sleeve, then gave him a smile making his worries go away.
"Fine we'll talk, but you have to wait. We have a party to get to."
"A party!? Why is this-" Flowey looked at Frisk and froze again. "Yeah, okay, I'll wait." Toriel walks over to Flowey with tears in her eyes.
"… Asriel…" Flowey growled and went underground, leaving Toriel. Frisk went over and gave her a hug. A phone alarm went off, this time it was Frisk's phone. Frisk let go and look at his phone.
"Oh boy, guys give me a minute." Frisk ran upstairs heading towards their room, leaving their friends waiting in the living room.
~~===X===~~
Chara was sitting on a bed holding his SOUL. It was cracked like it was broken into pieces, then put back together, emitting a black substance from them. He tried to remember when or how they got it back. Nothing came up worrying him. Ever since Frisk did the Genocide Run they are able to remember every timeline since then. Whatever Frisk was doing was affecting him. Frisk entered the room and locked the door.
"Well, if it isn't four eyes." Frisk scoffed and keep working on his phone. "What are you doing Frisk?"
"Long story short, I made a deal with a couple of politicians and they just broke it."
"Politics? Bit of a stretch for you isn't it."
"Asgore wanted me as Ambassador. Hmph, some King."
"Seems like you don't love your job. There's a simple solution for that."
"Chara enough, I know you just want to ERASE the timeline."
"Hehe, it's a fitting end to a world like this. Don't you think? So what did this Politicians did?"
"I gave some information on Monsters in exchange to make sure nobody was in the CORE. No Humans inside. But it appeared they haven't been listening." Frisk shows his phone to Chara witch had a picture of researchers entering the Hotland.
"And let me guess, this plan of yours involves the CORE?"
"Yes, and I can't risk them walking around doing whatever they want."
"What are you going to do? Go against the big bad government."
"Not me, her." Frisk extended his hand and blue SOUL appeared, shocking Chara. He let's go of the SOUL and formed into a blue specter giving the shape of a girl wearing a ballet uniform. Chara noticed the girl was crying and was in pain, struggling to move.
"Y- yes…" The blue specter look at Frisk with fear in her eyes.
"I have a job for you. I need you to cause a mess for me."
"M- mess?"
"You'll find out in due time, just get to the location." The Blue Specter spotted Chara and noticed Chara's SOUL. She tried to speak, but Frisk got in the way.
"MOVE" Afraid the girl turned into a blue ball, leaving through the window disappearing into the dark.
"How did you get that SOUL?"
"If I tell you, you're not going to like it."
"What. Did. You. Do." There was a knock on the door.
"Human are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm on my way!" Frisk headed to door ignoring Chara.
"Do not ignore me!" Chara went to grab Frisk but his hand fazes through them. Frisk left, leaving Chara alone. Chara was furious, Frisk was doing something and it was becoming too much for him. He had enough. Now with their SOUL back they can see if it's possible to regain an old ability.
~~===X===~~
The ballroom was filled with Humans and Monsters, interacting with each other. Alphys and the skeleton brothers were trying to cheer up Undyne who felt embarrassed in her dress. In a table Frisk, Asgore and Toriel were relaxing watching others have fun. Frisk was playing video games on their phone, while Asgore and Toriel were sitting next to each other.
"I saw Asriel today…"
"You mean Flowey. Toriel please understand he's a completely different being now."
"But he was once our son. And I hope one day he'll return to us."
"But you know the cost. I'm not going through it again." There was silence between the two.
"I have hope. I can't help it. One day… you'll find it." Asgore became unnerved.
"Look at this, Humans and Monsters… together, happy. But I can't help but remember how we got here. My actions. Our people deserve this, but do I?"
"You speak nonsense Asgore. Yes, I wish there was another way. That I could have done something, do more not only for the children but for the Monsters. But in the end, we're here. And I know in my heart that the Fallen Children have found peace. If they were here I'm sure they would forgive you. All that's left is for you to forgive yourself." Toriel places her hand on Asgore's making him smile.
"I need a doctor!"
Everyone looked at the waiter who made the call. He's nursing a little girl, helping her stand. She struggled to move and unable to speak due to the pain while others circled around her. Frisk took notice and smirked, they twitched their finger releasing a soft blue glow. The girl's eyes widened and dropped to the floor screaming. Her body began to stretch and her skin changed color. She stood up towering over everyone. She turned into a tall, slim gray creature. Her face appeared melted, a blue aura emitted from her whole body. When her Blue SOUL appeared she let out a roar.
"RUN!" Everyone headed towards the exits, with some staying behind to protect others.
"Toriel take Frisk and head for safety!"
"Please be careful Asgore." Toriel grabbed Frisk and headed to the nearest exit.
"Papyrus protect the civilians!"
"Yes, your highness!" The Creature was destroying everything in its path. A spear pierced it's back, causing her to scream in pain. She turned to her and saw Undyne holding more spears in her hands.
"Face me, you walking plank!"
The Creature charged at Undyne trying to hit her but missed. She continued to attack but Undyne keeps dodging. Undyne notices she always spins when striking, leaving herself open for a counter attack when spinning. After her next spin, Undyne stuck hitting her with the spears. The Creature tried to fight back, but Undyne was too quick. Infuriated the Creature slammed her hands on the floor, causing it to shake, Undyne lost her balance and fell to the floor. The Creature swatted her away, crashing on broken pieces of wood. The Creature fingers grew large and sharp, she aimed at Undyne and attacked. Before making contact her whole frame hit the ground, unable to move. Undyne saw Sans, his left eye glowing brightly.
"What gives you the right to ruin a wonderful party?" Sans raised his hand and the Creature launched up hitting the ceiling. He lowered his hand, sending the Creature crashing down. She stood up wobbling and roared yet Sans was unfazed.
"Look, kid why don't we just settle down and go grab a burger." The Creature stood there like it was considering the offer. She roared again and Sans sighed. "Disappointing" The Creature was slammed down, then bones pop up from the ground stabbing the Creature.
"Dude, hardcore" Undyne stood beside Sans looking over the Creature. The Creature jerked up and its jaw began to stretch. She expelled water from her mouth hitting Sans and Undyne flooding the ballroom. The water quickly dried up revealing Sans and Undyne was on another side of the room. The Creature wounds healed and roared again. She heard footsteps from behind, she turned and spotted Asgore.
"If you wish to hurt anyone, you must go through me first."
Asgore pulled out a red trident and took a stance. The Creature charged at Asgore and took a swing, Asgore pinned her hand with his trident stopping her momentum. She yelled at his face, but he headbutted her, knocking her senseless. She tried to stand up, but Asgore formed a fireball struck her engulfing the whole room. Asgore formed another ready to strike, but stop when he heard whimpering.
"P- please… stop… hurting me…" Asgore removed his trident, then try to help the Creature out.
"I'm sorry but why? Why are you doing this?"
"H- He made me do it. I-" Chains burst from her back and a portal open, dragging her to it. She was clawing the floor trying to prevent herself from leaving.
"NO, HELP! DON'T LET HIM TAKE ME! AHHHHH!" Asgore tries to grab her, but the chains pulled into the portal and disappeared. Alphys walked over to Asgore while Papyrus helped Sans and Undyne.
"Sir, I- I think that was an Amalgamate." Asgore looked around, seems like no one got hurt. His mind was at the little girl, she needed help but once he realized it, it was too late. He failed her. Then it dawned on him.
"T- that little girl… looked familiar."
~~===X===~~
Frisk entered his room and laid down on the bed, took him longer than expected to get home. Chara appeared at the other end of the room, leaning against the wall.
"Heard what happened. Tell me what was the point of that?" Frisk stood up staring at Chara, he smiled.
"Simple, humanity likes to point fingers. So when a Creature mysteriously appears and cause havoc, the most logical thing to do is to blame their new best friend. Of course, Monsters will feel betrayed and start to lose trust in them. They'll decide to keep their secrets for themselves kicking out Humans off their more sensitive sites."
"And this includes the CORE."
"Yes, and since I'm buddy-buddy with the head scientist, I'll have unlimited access to the CORE. With Alpyhs focusing more on her girlfriend-"
"You'll be the only one in the CORE. Hehe, clever, very clever. However, it will never come to fruition." He extended their hand and a button appeared. On it, it said ERASE. Frisk and Chara glared at each other.
"Took me a while to get it. I always thought I needed your SOUL specifically to able to do this, but turns out my own SOUL is enough. I don't need you anymore and this time you're not coming back."
"Go ahead, press it." All of Chara's confidence disappeared and all while Frisk was smiling. He instantly knew Frisk did something. Shaking, Chara eventually pressed the button and nothing happened. He pressed again and again and again, but nothing. The button disappeared, then reappeared next to Frisk.
"Has it ever crossed your mind how you got your SOUL back. I brought it back. Now I'll admit I had some… outside help but I think it ended up well."
"B- but… H- how…?" Chara took steps back bumping into stuff.
"Amazing, this is the first time I have seen you panic or emit any emotion at all. Now, I think it's time to explain some things." Chara SOUL appeared and so did Frisk's. Frisk SOUL was different this time, it was all… glitched. Then six other SOULS appeared circling around them along with his own.
"I need SOULS, but not just any other SOUL, I specifically need all of the Fallen Children SOULS. These six were easy to get, but you. That was a massive hurdle, but now you're here. Because I want you to be here." Above Frisk appeared the other Children wrapped around in chains. Some chains even pierce their bodies. The chains began to glow red and lit up all the way towards Frisk back, he was the source of the chains.
"I brought them back, just like you. Gave them a choice. They said no. If I remember correctly, you also said no." Chains pierced Chara's back falling to the floor. He could barely move due to the pain. The chains raised them in the air leaving them hanging by his back. Their SOUL left joining the others along with Frisk.
"I have all 8 SOULS now. I can finally proceed to the next phase. All I need is time and that's not a problem since the consequences of Time don't really apply to me. Hey, know what? I'll give you a second chance, will you help me?"
"I… I WILL KILL YOU!"
"No…? Hmmm… How curious. You must have misunderstood. SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL!?" Frisk's face became twisted similar to Chara's when frustrated. The chains glowed even brighter causing Chara to scream all while Frisk made a twisted laughter.
A/N: Chapter 2 done! And it was longer(ish). Now I like to address something that was pointed to me. Chara is soulless and in this story Chapter 1, they had a SOUL. I forgot that Chara was Soulless, a big mistake on my part. Hopefully, I was able to clean it up here. I'll explain the rest of the details in later chapters.
Also, I changed my writing style a bit here. If you have any notes don't be afraid to tell me.
If you enjoyed please favorite and/or fallow, share and leave a Review. Let me know what you thought of the chapter. Have a wonderful day and hope to see you next time!
