-.o Sans POV o.-

When I see Frisk… He's going to have a bad time.

How could you throw your own sister here? Not only did he throw his own sister here but, she's his only family left. Why would he bring her into the underground? Is she meant to be his replacement or something?

No… if anything, the kid doesn't want others to take his place… As much as, I would like a break from all this, I don't want someone else to suffer with the other time lines of themselves. So, why is she here this time? Before I could ask how she got here, she perks up and asks, "Mom?"

I looked back and see Toriel and… Frisk… He had a stick and… a boot strapped to his back? I hear Toriel call out, "Eve! My child!" She runs over to us as Eve turns around and smiles the brightest smile I had ever seen on her face. Even brighter than when she's praising papyrus.

"Mom!" She had her arms out for a hug as Toriel grabbed her and twirled her like a rag doll. This made her laugh and smile. I watched this and sighed, "So, are you good from here kiddo?"

Thump Thump

I felt the pain in my chest as I thought that. Tori stopped and looked at her as she lets Eve down on the ground again to stand up, "What does this skeleton mean? And… his voice sounds familiar…"

"Oh! Mom, this is Sans!" She smiled as she went over to me and held out a hand in my direction. I smiled and held her hand to let her know I was there. "He and his brother Papyrus have been guiding me through puzzles. His brother is amazing at them."

Thump thump

There goes my soul again being hurt by what she says. But, she's only praising him and being honest to herself and to Tori. When she says this, she didn't show it in the way she smiled. But with her words she showed her gratitude and something else as she introduced me.

"Your voice sounds familiar too… The woman behind the door, right?" I managed to say to Tori. She smiled, "Oh! The one who makes such wonderful jokes at my door."

I noticed a nervous look on Eve's face but she hid it with a smile as she looks in my direction, "So, what are you talking about Sans? You need to still guide me into town." She held my arm and I felt warm in the face. I also noticed that she was acting differently when she could hear that Toriel was familiar with me.

"I… Um, sure thing kiddo…" I looked over at Frisk as he got close to his sister.

When he was close enough he spoke softly almost nervous, "Eve?" He sounded like he was going to cry.

She froze in place hearing the other voice, "Frisk?"

I looked at him and left my plastered-on smile there. I didn't show the others my fury with him right now. My eyes dark and not showing any light. He was however, shaking like a leaf from that. He must have known that I knew about the other timelines.

She lets go of my arm as she takes off her gloves and touches his face. She was feeling the details of it delicately hoping she wasn't just hearing things. He put the boot down and hugged her tightly, "I'm sorry…"

She sighed and sat in the snow with him and holding him closely. She smiled softly, "It's ok… I want you to be safe…"

As she pulled away it seemed like he had calmed down and was ready to say something else. However, to my enjoyment, she smacks him in the head.

-3- . -3- Toriel's POV -3- . -3-

I found her!

She's safe and… holding hands with a skeleton? I'm not going to judge my child's choices too harshly but, he seemed a bit lazy for her. I said her name softly to myself, just glad that she was safe. I didn't want to interrupt her conversation with this skeleton either.

"Eve…"

However, she had heard me and stopped to look in my direction. After going to meet up with her and this Skeleton, we all started to talk. I was glad I knew the skeleton beforehand but, Eve seemed to take it another way. I just hope she understands that I don't think I have those kinds of feelings for this skeleton, as sweet as he may seem. We all smiled until Frisk spoke up. She hugged him and then did the one thing I never taught her to do. She hit him.

"What the fuck were you thinking!? Putting yourself in danger like that! I want you safe! Not put yourself in danger! What did you do to get here? Jump?!" She was very mad and I was letting her get away with it for now. She was just worried for him… like I was for her.

Frisk chuckled slightly nervous at how she reacted to him being here, "A-Actually… now that you mention it…"

"Why!? Why in the hell would you think that jumping in is ok? Frisk… You're the only family I have left. You idiot. You're not allowed to put yourself in any danger…" She hugged him tightly and started to cry softly.

He sighed, "The same goes for you… I'm sorry Eve… I didn't push you in here on purpose… I swear I didn't."

I stopped and looked at them curious about what he was talking about, "Pushed? What do you mean pushed Frisk?"

The Skeleton, whom I learned was named Sans, looked at him curious about how Eve had gotten here too. He looked up at me and tears welded up in his eyes. He sighed as he tried to calm down and speak.

"W-We were playing and she was getting closer to a big hole in the ground and… I-I called o-out to her and… and… and I couldn't stop myself from running t-to her…" He was now sobbing and hiccupping he was so upset.

Eve sighed and let him cry for a bit as she wiped tears away from her face, "It's alright Frisk… I forgive you…"

Sans looked away and sighed as he helped them both off the ground, "Come on you two, we don't need an Eve-sicle and a Frisk-sicle."

Eve giggled, "What do you mean Sans? It's a perfect day for an Eve-sicle." This caused Sans to turn a bright shade of… blue? Interesting color… He smiled a bit wider at her as she giggled at his joke.

I joined in on the puns ignoring the obvious situation happening in front of me, "Well it is an 'Ice' day."

Frisk just laughed, "Wow, who knew my 'pun'-ishment would be a pun war between the 'Punniest' people around."

I couldn't help but laugh and Sans joined hands with Eve as we all walked into Snowdin together.

~ -.- ~ Frisk's POV ~ -.- ~

I was glad Eve had forgiven me… even if I don't deserve it. Sans definitely remembers me from all the timelines… Especially with Chara… and that's not a good thing at the moment. That means he could tell Eve everything he knows about me in the other timelines… That's … kinda terrifying. But I also noticed how close he was to Eve. -Maybe, I could use that to my advantage? –

As we walked through Snowdin and getting closer to Sans and Papyrus' house, I noticed Eve wasn't using her walking stick. She was solely relying on Sans to guide her. She only did that for people she could truly trust. -Do… Do they like each other?- I was trying to imagine them being happy together, -It would be very different for us to have Eve living with us…-

Whenever I left Toriel behind at the sun setting… I would go back to see the house, and where Eve was. But, she was always gone and out looking for me… All, I could do was reset, so I could go back to her but… When I'm with Toriel, it was like I was adopted into a monster family. It was nice but I wanted my sister too.

I was always filled with Determination when I thought about my sister and how much I wanted her to be part of my life.

Eve started to reach out for me as I strapped the boot back on and held her walking stick as it now was dragging behind me. I held her other hand and stayed close to her, "Sis? What do you plan on doing now?" She just smiled as if that was the easiest question she had been given to answer all day, "Free the underground. What else am I going to do?"

Sans looked at me and then at her as he shook his skull. He chuckled slightly sounding worried about her, "Kiddo, I don't think that's the best Idea."

"No kidding." Flowey spoke up, "There's nothing but death in your direction if you do that kid."

Eve jumped away from me and let go of my hand. I looked at her shocked until she said his name, "F-Flowey? W-what are you doing with my brother?" She held sans hand tighter as she looked and sounded terrified. She only acted like this when she was hurt before or scared of something she thought could hurt her.

"Flowey, what did you do to my sister?" I glared at him.

Sans' eye also glowed that blue that I remembered all too well from other timelines. "Did that flower hurt you Eve?" She didn't answer for a moment and got closer to sans as he was trying to comfort her. "Kid… please tell me."

Flowey jumped a bit as I glared at him, "I… I was only doing what I always do to newcomers…"

I looked at Flowey, "So, you shared your friendliness pellets with her?"

"Y-Yeah…" they answered at the same time to sans and my questions. Eve was trembling from the memory of being hurt so badly. And Flowey was trembling in fear of what Sans and I would do to him.

Sans and I agreed to hurt someone, for once. I knew it was Asriel but, he hurt my sister. So, I'm going to hurt him back. However, …

"Stop!" Eve spoke up. Toriel was behind Eve as she grabbed onto Sans.

"Eve, that flower hurt you." Sans said holding her hand ready with a few bones around the boot.

"Right! He deserves to at least be hit back." I argued with her only having a stick but ready to hurt him with it.

But, she shook her head at both of us, "I know that he hurt me but, I'm not going to let him get hurt because of me. I know there's some good in him. If there wasn't any good in him, why would he be around Frisk?" Eve spoke up as we were ready to do some damage to him.

She was holding Sans back by hugging his waist tenderly. She didn't want to have a fight happen. He sighed and relaxed, "How can you be as cool as a cucumber at a time like this Eve?" She just smiled and had him walk with her and Toriel to his house while showing us around town a bit. I followed close behind and looked at Flowey as he was in his boot, and sighed in relief that he wasn't hurt.

When he noticed me glaring at him, he glared back and spoke with a shaky voice, "Wh-What d-do you w-want Frisk?"

"You're lucky my sister is so forgiving, Asriel." I glared at him a bit more, "If you ever hurt her again, I will not hold back. I will hurt you. I won't kill you but, you will be harmed."

"W-Whatever…" Flowey says shaking like a leaf as he heads back deep inside the boot.

If he hurts her again… I won't hold back.

Merry Christmas Everyone! I hope you all enjoy :) I'll try to post the next one right after New Years!~
