"WHA-WHAT?" Papyrus said in confusion. "WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO LEAVE?"

Frisk explained on how she wanted to attempt to bring all the monsters, especially Papyrus, to the surface to live together peacefully.

"Wow. You care for me that much?" Papyrus quietly said. But he instantly turned back to his usual self and said "WELL, FINE! BUT OF COURSE, I MUST CHALLENGE YOU TO A FIGHT!"

He stood up from the table and went to the opening that would lead him onto the next room. "WHEN YOU'RE READY, MEET ME DOWNSTAIRS!"

After saying it, he quickly ran downstairs out of view.

But why does he want me to challenge him for? Frisk thought to herself. Well, might as well go see what it's all about.

She went to the stairs and while she went down, the stairs almost broke below. Almost immediately after that, Papyrus yelled "DID I MENTION TO BE CAREFUL ON THE STAIRS? IF NOT, THEN BE CAREFUL!"

"Too late for that…." Frisk whispered to herself as she continued her way down. The minute she got down there, a horrible smell hit her.

It smelled like death, despair, hopelessness, and dead fish. The walls were covered in garbage, the floor had a layer of sewer water, and there were flies all around it.

"What happened to this place!?" She said as she reached Papyrus. "WELL, EVER SINCE SHE DIED, IT SEEMS THAT EVERYTHING HAS BEEN GOING DOWNHILL."

As they continued walking down the hallway, he continued his tale, this time, his voice was filled with more despair. "AFTERWARD, I ABANDONED MY BROTHER, KING SANS, AFTER HE DECIDED TO WAGE WAR ON THE HUMANS FOR REVENGE."

They turned a corner of the hallway as Papyrus continued his tale. "ONCE I LEFT, I REALIZED I HAD NOWHERE TO GO, SO I FOUND REFUGE IN THIS 'SHELTER', TO SAY THE LEAST."

As they reached near the door, Papyrus said the last part of his story. "I TRIED TO CLEAN UP MY 'HOME' AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, BUT NO MATTER HOW MUCH I CLEAN THE BASEMENT, IT SOMEHOW ALWAYS COMES BACK THE NEXT DAY. AH, WE ARRIVED!"'

They finally reached the doorway. "SO, FRISK, ARE YOU READY TO FIGHT!?" Before Frisk could answer his question, Papyrus said "HERE I COME!"

-In battle-

Frisk felt a something 'burst' out of her chest. She looked down and saw a red heart. "W-Why is my heart out!?" She said, his face and voice showing how confused she was.

"OK, HERE I COME!" Papyrus sent a wave of bones after him. The bones nearly missed her heart, but hit her actual body.

But for some reason, she didn't fill the pain. "JUST SO YOU KNOW, THE ATTACKS ONLY AFFECT YOUR SOUL, NOT YOUR PHYSICAL BODY! BUT, YOU PROBABLY ALREADY KNEW THAT, DIDN'T YOU!"

So, it's called a soul. Frisk thought to herself.

Suddenly, four buttons came up in front of her from out of nowhere. "NOW IT'S YOUR TURN!" The buttons were Fight, Act, Items, and Mercy.

She put her hand over Act and pressed it. More words came up. Check and Talk. She pressed check and a small 'bio' came up.

*Papyrus ATK 80 DEF 80

*Couldn't even cook for his own life.

"HEY! I TAKE OFFENSE TO THAT!" Papyrus angrily yelled.

*Defense and Attack lowered!

"OK, I guess that's nice…" She said as she dodged an incoming attack.

"OH! NICE DODGE! BUT CAN YOU DODGE THIS!?" Papyrus said in excitement.

He summoned a huge Gaster Blaster. "ARE YOU READY?! CAUSE HERE I GO!"

The Gaster Blaster shot a huge wave of spaghetti at Frisk. She knew if she didn't dodge this, she would be instantly pulverized by the horrible spaghetti.

She just barely dodged it, her soul taking a huge hit. "HEY! YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO DODGE IT FULLY!" Papyrus realized the mistake he made and said "I MEAN, UHHHHHH, DANGIT, I MISSED!"

After Frisk heard that, she easily determined that Papyrus didn't want to fight her. When it was her turn, she pressed *Mercy, then *Spare. "…." Papyrus didn't reply to her action and continued his attack. He threw a huge blue bone and he said "STAND STILL!"

Frisk listened to his advice and stood still. The attack phased right threw her and he said "GOOD JOB, FRISK. OOPS, I MEANT, YOU FAILED, FRISK! YOU WERE SUPPOSE TO GET HIT!"

Frisk couldn't help, but chuckle at Papyrus' attempt at trying to be mean.

"HEY, DON'T LAUGH AT ME! I'LL STOP YOU FROM LEAVING THE RUINS."

Frisk *Spared him again. Every time she did this, his attacks seemed to get less intense.

"WHY AREN'T YOU FIGHTING, FRISK!? DID I BREAK YOU!?" Papyrus asked out of fear and confusion. He changed Frisk's gravity and sent a nearly undodgeable bone.

But with determination, Frisk jumped over it as if it was nothing. Papyrus' eyes nearly popped out (somehow) as Frisk reached the roof of the basement when jumping over the bone.

"….I'M NOT GOING TO EVEN QUESTION THAT." He told himself.

Frisk spared him again, and Papyrus sighed. "I GUESS YOU WANT TO LEAVE THE RUINS THAT BAD, HUH?" A rain of bones came down from the top, missing Frisk on purpose.

She spared him again, and Papyrus told her "IF YOU LEAVE, YOU'LL BE JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER CHILDREN. THEY WILL COME AND THEY DIED BY THE MONSTERS OUTSIDE."

Frisk kept on sparing, and after a few times, Papyrus finally gave in. "WOW. I COULDN'T EVEN STOP ONE CHILD….."

Frisk soul went back into her chest and thought, Is it finally over? She looked at Papyrus, waiting for him to say something.

"….I GUESS IT WOULD BE UNFAIR TO PUT YOU UNDER HOUSE ARREST FOREVER. THE RUINS DO BECOME QUITE SMALL ONCE YOU LEARN EVERY NOOK AND CRANNY OF THIS PLACE." He told her.

He opened the door behind him and said "I-I GUESS I'LL ALLOW YOU TO LEAVE." He slowly walked over to Frisk and gave her a big hug.

Frisk nearly choked up with tears, but somehow held them back and returned the hug.

Papyrus let go of the hug and said "REMEMBER FRISK. IF YOUR PLAN DOESN'T WORK OUT, PLEASE DON'T BE UPSET. AND IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, GIVE ME A CALL FROM A PHONE."

Papyrus grabbed a paper from his back pocket with somewhat legible writing on it. There were 8 numbers on it which seemed to be his phone number.

"WELL… I GUESS THIS IS GOODBYE. GOODBYE." Papyrus said as he left towards the basement stairs.

He turned to her for one last look, then left.

Frisk stood there for 5 minutes, then decided to leave. When she exited the door, she felt a cold shiver, as if a ghost was following her.

But she brushed it off, and went out the door. She was greeted with a bright light and a "Hello!"
