Previously: The Dreemurr children introduced Simon and Carol, two humans who have climbed up Mt. Ebott to their parents, both sides were nervous at this contact between humans and monsters so soon, meanwhile Dr. Alphys were undergoing a new fitness regimen on Undyne's insistance and as she was talking with Deos and Cali, Sans appeared and told them about the two humans that have climed Mt. Ebott, they then prepared for what would happen once they arrived at the Lab...
(Lab)
Dr. Alphys and Sans had just talked with Deos and Cali on the surface, they were discussing how to deal with the humans when they get to the Lab and they need to explain how Deos and Cali fits into it.
"I'll tell my bro' what he needs to do when they get to Snowdin, after I tell Undyne about what's coming." Sans said.
"Tell me what?!" Undyne said.
"Undyne, two adult humans have c-climbed up to the way in through the t-throne room! Don't worry, they're being t-taken on a tour of the u-underground by Asgore and the others." Dr. Alphys said.
"What?! Where are they?! I wanna..." Undyne shouted.
"You might as well wait here, Undyne, they'll be coming here." Sans said "You've saved me a little time, I need to head to Snowdin to warn my bro'" he walked the other way, much to their confusion.
"He does that." Dr. Alphys said, with a nervous look.
(Hotland)
Outside the Lab, Simon and Carol were looking at this huge white building in a part of the underground that was full of lava, which was illuminating it. Asgore, Toriel, Frisk, Asriel and Chara was following them.
"Muffet wasn't as dangerous as we thought she was, all we had to do was avoid stepping on any spiders, I'm sure that she'll be a hit on the surface." Simon said.
"Yeah...what was this lab created for?" Carol asked.
"To find another way of breaking the barrier without using human souls, all it did was result in W.D. Gaster disappearing and the creation of amalgamates." Asgore said.
"Oh...who's in charge of it now?" Carol asked.
"Dr. Alphys...ironically her research was responsible for Asriel coming back to life again..." Toriel said.
"She's also a huge otaku." Frisk said.
"Is she?..." Simon said, he and Carol had a look of concern on their faces, this wasn't lost on the others as they walked into the Lab.
(Lab)
Simon and Carol was surprised to see a short yellow lizard who is about Frisk's size with glasses and a lab coat, alongside her was a fish-like monster with red hair done in a ponytail, wearing a black tanktop and blue pants.
"H-Hi, I'm Dr. Alphys, this is Undyne." Dr. Alphys said, with some understandable nervousness.
"Hey, we weren't expecting you here so soon, good thing that you didn't come here earlier, I wouldn't be as nice to be around, how are you holdin' up?" Undyne said.
"So far, we've met a family of talking goats, a possessed robot body, a spider baker and now a lizard in a labcoat and a warrior fish-lady, if we weren't recording this, they'll think that we're crazy!" Simon said.
"I got caught up by a lot of anti-human stuff, but Toriel talked me out of trying to kill that little guy." Undyne said.
"Yes...it made me think about my own decision to hide away from my problems, which was a bad idea." Toriel said.
"It all worked out in the end" Deos said, from the computer, surprising Simon and Carol. "It resulted in both Asriel and Chara (albeit in a different form) being alive again."
"Who...?" Carol asked
"I'm Cali, this is Deos, we've been talking with Dr. Alphys for a while now, more Deos than me, I didn't like her until yesterday." Cali said.
"She was my inside woman, although I initially had to buy her loyalty and to keep her from telling anyone, not just because it would risk her being seen as a collaborator with the enemy or even a spy." Deos said.
"He sent you Anime, didn't he?" Carol said, looking at Dr. Alphys smiling.
"How did you know that?!" Dr. Alphys said, surprised.
"Frisk told us that you were an Otaku." Simon replied.
"Oh...well, they helped me get through a tough time...well, that and Undyne...he he." Dr. Alphys said.
"Toriel was persuaded to leave the ruins and do something that she should've done long ago and that's when they eventually changed how things are and that was how Asriel and Chara are alive again." Deos said.
"Yeah, they told us on the way here, I've been wanting to ask you about something, it happened a few years ago..." Carol said.
Then the Purple Soul Child walked up from the elevator, "Dr. Alphys, Endogeny is hungry aga..." He had a look of shock as he saw Simon and Carol. "Mom! Dad!" He ran up to them and hugged them both, they picked him up and tearfully hugged him.
"Liam!" Simon and Carol shouted, tears flowing down their eyes.
"He's your son, isn't he?" Asgore said, with deep regret.
"Yes...he was dead...and now he's alive and hasn't aged a day since then." Carol said.
"He's also in better condition than he was before, good eyesight, good physical condition for his age...I'll stop there." Dr. Alphys said.
"We were going to ask you to take all of the children to the surface." Toriel said.
"It's because Asriel was killed last time." Simon said.
"Yes..." Toriel said, with some pain in her voice. "We thought that they would be safer if they were returned by other humans."
"Understandable." Carol said.
"Next it's the wetness of Waterfall, Toriel was there recently because that's where she buys snails to make Snail Pie" Deos said.
"I didn't like that as a human, but now...I can't get enough of it." Chara said, with delight in their voice.
"You were also a psychopath from what Asriel told me, but not anymore" Undyne said.
"Let us continue the tour of the Underground, we have two other parts of it before we are done." Toriel said.
"You're DEFINATELY the one in charge of your family." Carol said.
"Doesn't look like it's an issue." Simon said.
"We need to leave you here for a little longer, go tell the others that you'll all be heading back to the surface sooner than expected." Simon said.
"Okay, this'll surprise them." Liam said. they both lowered Liam down, he's a little happier now as he waved his parents as he went back down to the True Lab via the elevator.
"Oh...I almost forgot, the tests on the amalgamate cells have started and so far, they're stable and separated into their separate cells." Dr. Alphys.
"Amalgamate?..." Carol asked.
"I will explain on the way." Toriel said, neither Simon or Carol wanted to ask further after that "That is good, Dr. Alphys, keep me informed on your progress, once you are certain that it is safe to separate them, do so." She said in a firm, but understanding tone.
"I will, Toriel." Dr. Alphys said, a little nervously, but relieved by her easing off on her previously harsh stance.
"Now that we've dealt with that..." Cali said and some noises indicated that someone had fallen on the floor and then some pleasurable noises were being made.
"Time to go...I am thankful that we cannot see what is happening there, it is NOT something that I want my children to see." Toriel said with some minor annoyance.
Simon and Carol then followed the Dreemurrs out of the Lab and towards Waterfall, relieved to find out that their son is alive again, it was clear that events had taken their toll on the fuzzy boss monsters and they already had a couple of humans learning what they're learning about and more, they'd like to meet these two when they get back to Ebott City, they moved there in the hopes of finding out what happened to him...they haven't got all that they need to know about these (literally) magical creatures, but at least the question of what happened to their son was answered...that and they know that they're big on snails, they wondered how they'd react to them done in the French style...
How will Simon and Carol react to Waterfall? What will Deos and Cali do after they introduced themselves to them? What has Sans been doing? Find out in Chapter 36: Dampened Spirits
