Kealani

We proceed to the cooking part(which Annaka and I absouletly LOVE)and finally get to the part I have been anticipating: turning up the heat!

I smile as I step forward, but feel someone touch my arm.

I look behind me to see Annaka, looking a bit worried. "Be...um...careful...ok?"

I smile widely to her. "Come on! Trust me!"

I step forward and keep cranking up the heat as Undyne yells, "HOTTER!" So I do so until it's at about three hundred.

And then, the whole house sets on fire.

I shrug. "I-I'm sorry Undyne."

Undyne sighs. "I understand if you don't want to be my friend. I can't force you two to like me."

"But...we do like you Undyne," I say. "And we'd like to get to know you way better."

Undyne looks down at us. "I might want to get to know you two better too. Like how you," Undyne points at me. "turned into a new version of yourself that kinda looked like me."

I smile, giggling a bit, then say, "Well, if you stay with Papyrus, you know, since your house is in this condition, I think he can explain everything."

Undyne smiles at the both of us and we walk outside.

"If you need me," Undyne says. "give Papyrus a ring." Undyne turns to leave, but then turns to face us and smiles. "Oh, and I think I underestimated you punks. You may be humans, but if Paps made friends with you guys, so can I!"

And without another word, Undyne leaves, walking off to Snowdin, I presume.

We stand in silence for a few minutes.

"You wanna walk back to find the rest of them?" I suggest.

Annaka nods and we start to walk in silence.

Until about halfway through, I break it.

"So hey," I say. "Sorry for, you know, pushing you and stuff."

Annaka shrugs. "It's fine. Let's just keep going."

I sigh and look down, unsure if she really is fine or just saying that and internally still mad.

Kennedy

"Should we look for them?"

I shake my head at Jacob. "Nah. If I know them, they're probably coming back by now.

Jacob nods and sure enough, Kealani and Annaka soon come into view.

They walk towards us, neither of them showing much emotion on their faces.

"Hey guys," I greet. "How'd it go?"

Kealani looks down. "Well...I was sort of the one to..." Kealani looks up and gives a weak smile. "...burn the house...?"

I sigh. "That's why you're Undyne."

Kealani smiles wider.

There is an awkward gap of silence until someone's phone rings.

I watch as Annaka pulls out her phone.

Annaka notices my puzzled expression and asks, "What?"

I shake my head. "There's not supposed to be a call here." I point to the phone. "See who it is."

Annaka answers the phone. "Hello?"

"HELLO ANNAKA!" Papyrus greets.

Annaka looks at me and I shake my head, indicating that Papyrus doesn't call right here in the game.

"Hi Paps," Annaka greets, a hint of uncertainty in her voice. "Did you need something?"

"WELL YES I DID," Papyrus says. "YOU KNOW HOW YOU CAN MAKE A PORTAL TO GO HOME WITH YOUR BONE?"

Annaka nods. "Yeah."

"WELL...A PORTAL LIKE THAT JUST APPEARED OUT OF NOWHERE HERE IN SNOWDIN," Papyrus says.

All of us stand speechless.

Until Annaka says, "A p-portal?"

"YES," Papyrus replies. "DO YOU THINK YOU CAN COME CHECK IT OUT?"

Annaka nods. "Yeah yeah. I'll be there soon."

Annaka hangs up and puts her phone away.

"What do you think that was?" Annaka asks.

Everyone shakes their heads.

Annaka sighs. "I guess I'm heading over to Snowdin."

"Wait!" I exclaim. "I'll come with you! I can teleport us there to make it faster."

Annaka nods. "Ok. Thanks."

I nod, then transform into my Sans self.

"I guess I should transform," Annaka says, taking out her bone and transforming.

"Alright, let's go," I say.

"How do we do this?" Annaka asks.

"Come here," I say.

Annaka walks over to me and I say, "Just hold onto my arm, I guess."

Annaka clings to my arm as my eye starts to glow blue as I get ready to teleport the both of us.

"Is this safe?" Annaka asks.

I think for a moment, then say, "I'm ninety nine percent sure of it."

"Wait what?!"

I quickly teleport before Annaka lets go of me and we are gone in a flash.

.

I open my eyes to see me standing in the living room of Sans and Papyrus's.

I look to my side and see Annaka still clinging to my arm, but her eyes are closed and her head is resting on my arm.

I lightly shake her shoulder. "Annie?"

Annaka opens her eyes and looks up at me(for once she's has to look up at me!). "Ken? Did it work? Or did that one percent kick in?"

"It worked," I reply. "You ok?"

Annaka stands up straight, unlatching from my arm. "Fine. How 'bout you?"

I suddenly start to feel everything and my eye starts to burn a bit. "Well, my eye kinda burns right now." I shrug. "But that does happen sometimes."

"Left eye?" Annaka asks, knowing that the left eye is the one that will glow.

I nod.

"Do you want me to make sure its fine?" Annaka asks.

I nod and Annaka studies my left eye for a minute, then nods.

"It's fine," Annaka concludes. "Let's just go out and find Papyrus."

Before they can take a step to the door, it opens to reveal Sans standing there.

"i'll be right back, paps," he says, then turns around and shuts the door.

"Hey Sans," I say, walking over to him and Annaka close behind.

Sans looks up and smiles at us. "glad you came. how'd you get here so quickly?"

"I possess your powers, remember?" I remind him. "We teleported."

Sans nods. "right. anyways, i'll show you guys where the portal is."

Sans opens the door and we walk out.

He closes the door behind us and we already can see Papyrus and Undyne standing next to each other and a portal in front of them. There are also some monsters crowded around.

We walk over to them.

"paps, they're here," Sans says.

Papyrus turns around, along with Undyne.

"HELLO HUMANS," Papyrus greets.

"Hey Paps," Annaka says. "Could you maybe tell us what happened?"

"WELL, I AM NOT QUITE SURE WHAT HAPPENED," Papyrus admits. "UNDYNE AND I WERE JUST TALKING OUTSIDE AND THE PORTAL APPEARED."

Annaka nods. "Ok. We need to make sure no one goes into it, close it, and then...I don't what next. I'll figure that out later." Annaka starts to step forward and motions for me to come.

We step towards the portal and look at it.

"It definitely looks like the ones we create," Annaka says.

I nod in agreement. "But what are we going to do?"

"Figure out how to close it," Annaka declares.

"Why should you close it," a monster calls. "if it may lead to the overworld?"

All the monsters start to agree.

"We can't have monsters going to the overworld," I whisper to Annaka.

Annaka nods and quiets everyone. "You can't go in here!"

"Says who?!" Suddenly, a monster shoots magic on Annaka, causing her to fall down onto the snow.

A smile spreads across my face and I feel my eye glow blue.

I look down at the monster and smile very widely. "Buddy, you better not do that again. Or else you're gonna have a bad time. And we wouldn't want that to happen, do we friend?"

The monster looks quite scared and nods smally.

I allow my eye to stop glow but continue to smile. "Good."

"Hey! Stop it!"

I look behind me to see Annaka standing up as a monster is scurrying into the portal.

I help Annaka to her feet and ask, "How many monsters have gone in?"

"Six, I believe," Annaka replies.

My eyes widen a bit. "Six?!"

Annaka nods. "Here. Let me try to close this portal."

I nod in agreement as Annaka walks over to the portal.

"I'm going to put up a wall of some sort," I say, trying to be helpful.

I raise my hand up, bones shooting out of the ground, the monsters on one side and Annaka, the portal, and I on the other.

I hear some of the monsters yell from the other side.

"Let us in!" one yells.

I ignore them and turn to Annaka.

"Figured it out yet?" I ask.

Annaka continue to face the portal but nods. "I think so. Let me try this."

I watch as Annaka makes a circular motion with her bone inside the portal and in an instant, the portal is shut as the power from the portal goes into the bone.
