Frisk followed Asriel inside. "Smell that? Surprise! It's a butterscotch cinnamon pie, made especially for you! I will hold off on chocolate pie for tonight." Asriel exclaimed. "But there's another surprise, follow me." He said, leading the human child to a door. "Your room! uh, feel free to exp-... wait, something's burning." Asriel said as he dashed off in the direction of the kitchen.
Frisk went inside and went to sleep, as they were very tired from their journey. When Frisk woke, there was a slice of pie on the floor, they quickly put it in their inventory for later. Frisk went past the room under renovations and into a room hat Frisk guessed belonged to Asriel. On the desk, there was an open book, curious, the human read the circled passage. 'Why did the ghost ride the elevator? To lift his spirits!' was written on the page, Frisk flipped through the rest of the book, but it was all filled with Ghost puns.
Frisk explored the kitchen next, and for some reason, the fridge had a name brand teabag in it. Apart from that, nothing else was in the kitchen, so they went back to where Asriel was. "Up already I see, is there anything you want?" Asriel asked, as if he didn't see Frisk walk past him twice.
"Actually yeah, I wanna go home." Frisk said
"This is your home now. How about I read you 52 facts about chocolate? Did you know that chocolate comes from the cacao bean?" Asriel asked.
"Yes, but I want to leave the ruins!" Frisk said.
"Stay here, I have something to do." Asriel said, and with that, he was off. Frisk followed the young boss monster into the basement. "Child, please, go upstairs now. Child, I am doing this for your own good. If you leave, they, Chara will kill you mercilessly. I have seen it, each child falls, they leave they die. Go upstairs now, this is your final warning." Asriel said, as Frisk kept following him through the basement, until the two came to a stop at large iron doors. "Fine, if you want to leave so badly, then prove to me that you are strong enough to survive." Asriel said as the battle began.
"I will not fight you, I just want to leave." Frisk said, whilst dodging fireballs and stars.
"Fight me or run!" Asriel said, sending more bullets.
"NO!" Frisk shouted
"Just let me win! You will be happy here!" Asriel shouted, sending bullets that Frisk dodged. Frisk was low on HP, but they could see that Asriel was trying to miss on purpose. "Haha. Is it not pathetic? I failed to protect a mere child." Asriel said as the battle ended.
"I know the Ruins get small once you get used to them. You may go, but if you do, please, do not return, it is better knowing that you will not come back, than hold on to false hope." Asriel said, hugging Frisk, before walking away with a tar in his eye.
Frisk walked down the long, long hallway. They eventually came to a room. "Y-you are very clever for a ... um child. A-anyway, what happens if you meet a c-cold blooded killer? You will ... er ... you will die, that is u-until you give up. Y-you won't last long in a world of kill or be killed." Flowey said when she greeted them. She lauged maniacally, before disappearing into the earth.
Frisk went through the door and out into the freezing cold, they walked down a narrow path, stopping dead in their tracks when they heard footsteps coming behind them. "Darling, don't you know how to greet an old celebrity? Turn around and shake my hand." A male voice spoke slowly. Frisk turned to see a tall figure extend a gloved hand. Frisk took the hand and a jolt went through their body.
"Heh, the old joybuzzer in the hand trick, hilarious. The name's Metta, short for Mettaton. You're a human? correct? I'm more of an entertainer, but watch out for my cousin, Napstablook, he's dead set on capturing a human. Actually, that's him over there, just walk over this gap, mu cuz built it to spook people." Mettaton, a robot in pink slippers, black leggings a pink hoodie and a grey shirt underneath the hoodie said in a softer voice as the two walked across the gap.
"Quick, behind that conveniently shaped prop." Mettaton instructed. Frisk obliged, moments before a white ghost, wearing a black scarf came into view. "Sup cuz." Metta said lazily.
"You know what's 'sup', cousin, it's been eight days and you still haven't set. Your. Traps! What have you been doing!?" Napstablook asked, shouting.
"Staring at this cool prop, and I've done some work, a Met-a-ton of work." Metta punned, winking.
"Ugh, you are so lazy, what if a Human comes through? I must capture a human, then I, the great Napstablook, will have what is rightfully mine!" Napstablook said, striking a pose.
"Maybe this prop will help ya." Metta said.
"You are so LAZY!" Napstablook said
"Heh, someone's been going through with their work." Metta punned and winked again.
"i'll...go...finish my traps... as for your work...put a little more...elbow grease...into it...OOH OH HOO" Napstablook muttered, before floating away. Frisk came out from behind the prop.
"Actually, my cuz needs some cheering up, so it'd help if you kept pretending to be a human, kay darling." Metta said before walking off.
Frisk then went into the next room. "NGAHHHHHH the convenient shape of the prop still fills you with DETERMINATON" Human said as Frisk saved.
