"NO YOU DON'T!" Undyne snapped, stabbing at a vine that had lashed out at her. She stumbled backwards and quickly ducked, rolling under another vine. Her one visible eye darted about, taking in the entire scene. She made sure not to face one direction for too long. The flower was clearly trying to get in her blind spot.
Another vine lashed out at her. She twirled her spear and jabbed the head into it, practically bursting it in half. Her long fangs bared in her growl, her hair whipping in the wind that the movements brought about. Flowey tried to grab her with another vine which was swiftly cut in half. Taking advantage of gthe brief moment of relief, she charged at where several vines were wrapping around Alphys. She bit and scratched, tears streaming down her face as memories of her last incident came back to her in waves. Alas, there was too many too quick and the Flower's goal this time around didn't seem to be to amuse his sadistic self.
Papyrus, she wasn't too worried about. He could hold his own. And frankly, he was doing well. Dodging vines and beating them away with a bone or two. His focus was clearly on trying to free Alphys or talk Flowey down. But to no avail.
"WHY WON'T YOU STAY STILL!?" Flowey shrieked. Undyne slashed a vine in half, jumped over another one, and cut one that had wrapped around Alphys's feet. The small dinosaur shot her a grateful, but scared, smile.
"T-thank you, Un-dyne-" Alphys said. She was cut off by Undyne picking her up and chucking her out of the room through a gap in the crawling vines. She flailed her arms about as she landed with a thunk!, skidding along the concrete floor and rolling forward several feet. Pushing herself up on her arms, she shook her head and hurriedly and desperately stumbled about for her glasses. Something put them on her face and she was surprised to find it was a different amalgamate. Reaper Bird, she believed it called itself. She shot it a grateful smile, turned quickly and went to run back to help. Dogandgy jumped over her and turned on several heels, crouching downward with a gurgling noise that might have been a growl.
"P-please!" Alphys stammered "I n-need to help them!"
Dogandgy responded with a loud "BARK!"
"S-stand down!" Alphys snapped, pointing to the ground in emphasis and trying to sound in charge. It didn't work. Reaper Bird hopped over and wrapped its long neck around her arm, dragging her back. She stumbled and tried to lunge forward and away "N-no! Let go of me!"
Another hand took a hold of her other arm. She turned to see Lemon Bread. They frowned, lightly touching the tips of their fingers to Alphys's throat. She winced.
"It will hurt you again." Lemon Bread said softly.
Dogandgy barked again in confirmation, turned, and leapt into the vine-covered room.
"W-Wait! No!" Alphys howled "D-d-d-don't-!"
"They use to be Royal Guardsmen." Reaper Bird commented "They can handle this. We need to get you away."
"B-but-!" Alphys sniffled.
"Doctor Alphys, your friend Undyne threw you out of the room to get you away. Please." Lemon Bread said gently.
"B-but-" Alphys stammered. She stared back at the room. Undyne was there. Papyrus was in there. And now Dogandgy was in there. They were all trapped in there with an evil, sadistic flower that SHE helped to create. She had to do something. She pulled against her restrainers but to no avail. She half screamed, half sobbed: "I NEED TO DO SOMETHING!" Again, she pulled with all her might and this time they gave way. But she only landed on her hands and knees, clawing at the concrete as it settled into her that she couldn't. She wasn't a fighter. She wasn't a defender. She wasn't good for anything but getting in people's way and making them worry for her.
Alphys screamed and sobbed on the concrete floor. Reaper Bird and Lemon Bread exchanged dazed looks, took a hold of Alphys and began to drag her away. She didn't resist this time and let herself be carried. The weight of her phone in her pocket brushed against her thigh and she suddenly thought of something. Sans was with someone. Maybe…
She took out her phone and stared at it.
Maybe they can help?
Alphy:
Sans, Flowey's attacking again! You can get help, right!? Please, he's got Undyne and Papy
Sans was in the middle of helping Toriel both tend to Frisk's wounds and gently fill them in on the situation. They nodded gravely, a somber look to their soft face as they took in these words. They knew Chara and Flowey. Neither were pleasant company. Sans's hands were not in his pockets for once, as he was carrying a tray of food into the room and helping the goat woman with her healing magic or with bandaging. After he was done with that, Toriel sent him out to wash Frisk's thorn-covered sweater as the child wrapped themselves in a blanket, cold from only being covered in a thin black undershirt.
His phone vibrated angrily in his pocket but through the thickness of his coat he couldn't tell as he washed out the sweater and used his magic to dry it. After a good twenty minutes he was content with his work and delivered the shirt back to its owner, who took it happily. The child smelled it in for a long moment, enjoying the scent of freshly-washed laundry. They smiled up at Sans.
"Thanks!"
Sans winked and ruffled their head "No problem kiddo." He put his hands in his pockets again finally and when his hand brushed his phone, he figured it'd be a good idea to text Alphys or Papyrus and tell them he wasn't dead while Toriel tended to the rest of Frisk's needs.
He flipped open his phone.
Saw the text.
Me:
Alphy where are you guys right now?
…
Me:
Alphy!?
…
He felt his soul tense. He quickly dialed and heard just the busy tone. By now he caught the attention of both his companions in the room, who looked at him with wide and worried eyes.
He got no one to pick up so he texted again, to Papyrus.
Me:
PAPPY ANSWER ME
Me:
PAPPY WHAT'S GOING ON?"
No response. He tried Undyne.
Me:
WHAT'S HAPPENING RIGHT NOW
Nothing. Tried Papyrus again.
PAPYRUS, ANSWER ME
Nothing.
WHERE ARE YOU
Nothing. At this point he was yelling his texts at his phone.
WHAT'S HAPPENING
Nothing.
PAPYRUS!?
Nothing.
…
"BROTHER!"
