Chapter 9: Annoyance

It had been a day so far since Frisk had supposedly left the Underground. One whole day without a reset… Was that a record now? Or… maybe the kid was just interested. Sans asked himself this as he walked along New Home.

If his calculations were correct, Asgore would probably be dead. Frisk would have faced off with that weed… well… if said plant wasn't already on the other side of the barrier. How had Flowey stayed on the other side?

Every time a reset occurred, everyone was set back to a starting point. In Sans's case, it was his bedroom. Flowey couldn't have started on the surface. It didn't make logical sense… Unless… something had changed on the surface. Of course something had changed! The whole outside had literally shifted from the normal surface.

And then there was that kid he was fighting before the reset. Flowey had mentioned that he remembered resets. Whatever this thing was, it was dangerous. But… there was no way to stop him. Sans had to rely on Flowey…

How could he even consider trusting that weed? Flowey had killed everyone multiple times. It wasn't like he would suddenly gain emotions and get Frisk to reset. No, Flowey would ALWAYS be curious for another ending. The barrier between Sans and the surface kept him from forcing a reset…

His eye sockets widened in realization as he reached the entrance to the Judgement Hall. In theory, if Flowey hadn't used the six human souls, they would still be there. He could absorb a soul and cross the barrier… That was it!

A new sense of hope fueled Sans to keep moving. But… there was something here. An unknown presence was in the Judgement Hall. LOVE could be felt, emanating throughout the air. He had felt this before… But… that was on the surface.

"Eee hee hee, why so surprised?" A voice echoed through the hallway. The menace from the voice was haunting… "That little barrier was no problem to pass through!" Sans's expression shifted to one of surprise. A masked imp was floating at the other end of the Judgement Hall.

Skull Kid: 40 ATK 40 DEF LV 10 HP ?

*Just a kid… a mislead kid…

Majora: 9999 ATK 9999 DEF LV 9999 HP 99999/99999

*You will be on the receiving end of the bad time...

Those stats… what was this new world? Everything here was so dark… so evil… What has everyone done to deserve this? First, it was reset loops, then… THIS? "Heh, buddy… may I ask who the hell you think you are?" Sans asked, shoving his hands in his pockets. His eye sockets narrowed.

"How rude!" The imp exclaimed, leaping farther into the air. "Honestly, I was just about to talk to you… nothing too serious…"

"Hehe… it's no surprise that I don't believe you bud…" Sans… had bluntly had enough. "Listen buddy, I have no clue where you all came from or how you got here…" His eye sockets shut. "So… how about you all just go back to whatever hellhole you came from… I'm really not interested in any deals with you."

"Hm… are you sure?" The imp did a flip, turning upside down. "I mean… you seem to really wanna get out of this timeloop… huh?"

Sans's eye sockets widened in surprise. "How did you-"

"C'mon," The mask upon Skull kid's face began glowing. "I know everything… You can't honestly expect me not to know all about you." Within the blink of an eye, Sans was face to face with the demonic kid. "Honestly Sans… you're the most interesting out of all of your friends."

The skeleton let out a low growl in response. "What did you do?"

Skull kid waved a dismissive hand. "Oh shush, I didn't do anything to them…" He paused, "Yet… Lucky for you, I am very forgiving…" He tapped his chin, acting like he was thinking. "Kill the two anomalies… and I will spare your friends… Plus, no more time loops! It's a win win!"

Once again, Sans checked the kid. Too much LOVE for him to be telling the truth. "You and I both know that isn't the case…" Gaster blasters hummed with energy throughout the air. "Now tell me what your real intentions are…"

Skull kid simply smirked. "These are your weapons? That's really cute…" A shockwave of purple magic sprung throughout the room. All of the Gaster Blasters were destroyed upon impact. "Just think about my deal Sans… I'll be waiting."

"Hey wait! Where are you-"

The masked imp was gone…

"I still can't believe you ripped one of my PETALS!" Flowey screeched while they were walking through Clock Town.

Tatl rolled her eyes, not caring. "That's what you get for not giving us the freaking heart piece you weed!"

Both Link and Frisk exchanged looks of annoyance. They had been dealing with this throughout the trek to Clock Town. Link would have used the Song of Soaring, but he didn't want to scare this new companion. But… if you looked into Link's mind right now, you'd hear only internal screaming.

Everything was getting so confusing now. The Bombers Notebook wouldn't keep track when time reset on its own. He was relying on pure memory. But, this time it had been completely different. What key factor changed? Then again, Flowey had said something about that.

In Frisk's perspective, there was internal screaming, but not the kind you'd imagine. "Are you serious? Are we going to completely ignore that the fairy BASHED FLOWEY IN THE FACE?"

"Yes, we are going to ignore it Chara." Frisk responded with annoyance. "Besides, at least Flowey didn't get the soul."

"But… from what you have told me… isn't Flowey soulless? Wouldn't it be the right thing to do to give him a soul?"

Chara sighed, before screaming in udder annoyance. "First of all, I don't care about what's right and wrong. Second, you're being irrational. That fourth of a soul could have belonged to someone else."

"So you DO have emotions Chara!" Frisk teased.

"Shut up Frisk!" They yelled, hints of laughter betraying them. "Anyways… why are we still with this kid?"

"Well, because we nearly died from hypothermia Chara…" They grunted.

"Also… wouldn't it be nice to say thank you to the one who helped you?" Asgore suggested.

"Have you seen his stats? I'm not too sure whether we can trust him."

"Flowey did!"

"Are you serious Frisk? Flowey is a soulless abomination who craves power. Of course he'd manipulate that kid."

"Listen, he is taking us to some inn for the night… how about we just sleep on it?"

"Even worse idea! Who is to say he won't kill us in our sleep!?"

"Chara…" Frisk mumbled internally. "Remember about the whole… y'know…"

"Fine! But if we die I will not put up with you ever again!"

"Erm… but wouldn't you be dead?"

"I'M ALREADY DEAD!"

The barrier began visibly trembling under the moonlight. It wasn't going to fully give away, but it was enough to let someone through. This someone, had six glowing wings on his back. Sans had come out to play.

Excuse me for the ridiculously short chapter.

Honestly, I have no clue where this story is going and it is giving me MAJOR writers block.

I want to give you guys great content for this crossover, but getting the chapters out at this rate is making me rush. So... I'm going to slow down on updates. I'll probably do two of HfD and then one of TT. With HfD, ideas come to me easier. But using this strategy, I will have more time to think of content for this crossover. Also, the chapters will be longer.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience...

Once again, sorry for the crappy Chapter
