Frisk, Chara, and Asriel walked through the front door. They each each set their bags on the table and sat down.

"Did you have a good day," Toriel asked curiously.

Frisk nodded. "The bully came back, but I took care of it"

Toriel gasped. "Oh dear." She frowned and took out her phone. "Who do I have to call to get this to stop," she demanded.

Frisk shook her head. "Nah. We've got this. I made him go away by flirting with him."

Toriel sighed. She smiled. "You flirted with him?"

"She flirted with him," Asriel confirmed.

"I mean, it worked. " Chara laughed. "He ran away with his face bright red."

Toriel laughed. "Oh dear. Anything else happen in school?"

"Not really. Our history teacher wasn't here today, so we had a sub," Chara explained.

Toriel snorted. "Good. That teacher was awful"

"So has anything happened while we were out," Frisk asked.

Toriel shrugged. "I'm not too sure" There was a knock on the door. Toriel walked over and turned the knob. Gaster stood on the other side of the door. "What are you doing here," Toriel demanded.

Gaster sighed. "I've already talked with both Sans and Papyrus. I'm allowed back, but with rules," he explained.

Frisk grinned. "Hooray!

"I've um... also come with a question." He rubbed the back of his neck. "I found this creature during my stay in the Underground, and I was wondering if I could keep said creature."

Sans walked downstairs with Papyrus. He caught Gaster's expression. "oh good. he's found the elusive cat that he's been searching for."

Frisk gasped. "A cat?"

"How did you know that," Gaster asked. He looked shocked.

Sans shrugged. "well, i'm fairly good at reading expressions. so where is the little guy?"

Gaster pulled a black car from his inside jacket pocket. "Her name is Verdana and I've already grown so attached to her."

The cat sighed. "He stuck me in his pocket."

"Did the cat talk," Chara asked.

Veranda nodded. "There are talking dogs, why is a cat any different?"

Chara frowned. "That's true."

Gaster held the cat towards Sans. "Verdana was just wandering around outside Snowdin. She's spent her days just wandering back and forth between there and the Capital. Please, I ask that you let me keep her," Gaster begged. The cat stiffened as soon as she saw Sans.

Sans chuckled. "you always did want a cat." He pet Veranda. "wow. this cat's really soft, sorta like velvet."

"Well, I do try to keep my fur soft."

Papyrus walked towards the cat and examined it. Verdana examined Papyrus as well. "Hmm... well you don't look like that annoying dog that shows up here." He narrowed his eyes. "You won't try to steal my special attack, will you?"

Veranda scoffed. "No. I'm not a dog. I wouldn't do that."

Sans turned to Gaster. "did you name her?"

Gaster nodded. "She didn't tell me her name, so I had to."

Sans faced the cat once again. "so, what's your actual name?"

The cat sighed. "I've had plenty of names. Most recently being Verdana. I named myself Kat a while back, but Verdana is much better."

Sans snickered. "your name was kat, the cat? that's as bad as the name flowey was."

"It's hard coming up with names," Asriel defended, "Especially on the spot."

"relax asriel. i get it." He turned back to Gaster. "you can keep her, i guess. it isn't my house"

Gaster frowned. "So I wasted all that time trying to come up with something to say for nothing?"

"yup." Sans smirked. "welcome back. you're not allowed to perform scientific practices without someone watching you."

Gaster sighed. "Well, there goes my plan."

Everyone stared at the skeleton. Sans raised an eyebrow. "y'know, i was expecting an 'okay', but uh... what plan did you have?"

"There are some colleagues of mine still trapped Underground," he stated. "I found someone lurking in my old lab."

Sans nodded. He turned to the group. "who wants to go with my dad and watch him?"

Chara grinned. "I'll go," she announced. Chara moved to the middle and pointed at Toriel. "I'm gonna prove myself to ya, then you'll have to treat me like you do Frisk!"

Toriel grinned. "I believe you."

"hmm. didn't guess that." He shrugged. "eh... whatever. he better come back though. anyone else going?"

Chara frowned at the crowd. "I can do this by myself," she protested. She turned to the scientist. "In fact, leave the cat behind too!"

Gaster sighed and set down the cat. "Aw... do I have to?"

Sans grinned and nodded. "yup. leave the cat and take the child. if you bring the child back, you get the cat back. fair trade, i'd say."

The scientist set down the cat. "I'll come back Verdana."

Verdana nodded. "Yup. Do what ya need to do." She layed down on the ground and yawned. "I'll be here."

Gaster sighed. "Fine. Come on Chara." He opened a grey door and invited Chara through. Once the two entered the door, it disappeared from sight.

Gaster grinned at Chara as he walked to his lab. "I can't believe you offered to go with.

Chara scoffed. "I hate you, don't get me wrong, but I decided something this morning. I'm going to do a good deed," she insisted.

"Ah, well this is a good deed. You know that I was erased from the world in most aspects, correct?"

Chara nodded. "Yeah. You could see everything. Blah blah blah. Is that it?"

Gaster sighed. "No. Once I fell in, my colleagues tried to, fish me out, so to say. They fell in and were erased just like I. There's also a child who fell in as well. I need to help them," Gaster stated. He smiled. "One of them helped me when I was feeling down."

"Just how many fell it"

"I believe there were four who fell in after me. I'm not sure if you'll be able to see them, however."

Chara frowned. "Then how'm I going to help these people?"

"We'll have to discover that once we spot one." A loud static filled the air. Digitalized screaming rang through the room. Gaster grimaced and sighed. "Bingo."

"You are a monster, and not one of the friendly ones."

"Well, look who's trying to get better with insults."

"I won't do this."

"And who are you to defy me?"

"I am someone who doesn't want extinction of everyone in the world.

"Your words mean nothing. You will do as I say, and there is no way around that."

Home is where the heart is.

"I want to go home. I want to have a home, like I felt I did before."
