Frisk, Asriel, and Chara gasped as they were pulled back into their last save point. They each glanced at what they were doing. Each child held a piece of paper and a pencil. There was a short and lazy skeleton napping on a chair.

Overjoyed, the children threw down their supplies and practically tackled the skeleton.

"Sans," Frisk and Asriel yelled.

The skeleton awoke with a start. He looked down at the children. "oh uh… ha ha… sorry 'bout that." He rubbed Asriel's head. "but hey, at least we're okay now. please tell me you gave that creature a beat-down."

Chara nodded. She furrowed her brow. "Well, sorta. Y'see, Gaster sorta sent me and Undyne away during the fight.

Sans seemed surprised. He chuckled. "huh. well, didn't expect ya to actually fight for me kiddo. really thought you hated me."

"Well at least you didn't try to kill Asriel! Unlike the lady who killed you," Chara grumbled.

Sans chuckled. "that's very true. well since we've done this lesson before, why don't we just go downstairs. i gotta assure everyone that i'm okay."

Asriel nodded. "Yeah!" Asriel got up and opened the door. Asriel spotted the cat wandering the halls. There was a piece of paper taped onto her back. Verdana carefully peeled the tape away and dropped the note. She quickly ran down the stairs. "Wait," Asriel exclaimed. He began to run after the cat, but couldn't catch up before Verdana jumped out of a window. Asriel sighed and picked up the note. He took it to Frisk, Chara, and Sans. "She left."

The door at the far end of the hallway opened abruptly. Gaster came running out. He stopped at Sans. "Y- You're alive," he stuttered. Gaster grinned. "I-I was so worried that you wouldn't come back!"

"well now you don't have to worry, at least about the lady."

Gaster clenched his fists. "Ah yes. Her. The traitorous girl," he growled. Gaster took a couple of deep breaths to calm himself. "I'll deal with her later. For now, I have to find Cal-er... Verdana."

Asriel sighed and handed Gaster a note. "She ran away from me as soon as I saw her. She left this note behind."

Gaster's eyes widened. He took the note and began to read it.

"Dearest Wingdings (Or at least that's what I think I would write. Still not that sure.),

I… I know that I'm supposed to be happy. Hooray, I've got my past all figured out. But… I don't feel any attachment towards you, or Sans, or Papyrus. Just… anger towards that Gilda lady. I can't stay. I appreciated your offer for a home, but considering that I couldn't even find any emotion to mourn for my own son, I can't accept. It's better that you forget about me, as I'm not sure if I'll ever be 'myself' again.

Sincerely, Verdana."

Gaster gasped as he read the note. He quickly took off and dropped the note in his rush. Sans picked it up and began to read it. He raised a bone brow. "my mom's a cat plush now? huh. didn't expect that's who she was. guess we'll have to make it a quick greeting and try to find her."

The children nodded and rushed downstairs.

"Papyrus? Is there something wrong," Toriel asked. She set down a book she was reading and frowned at the obviously distressed-looking skeleton.

Papyrus rubbed his face and straightened up. "Y-Yup! Nothing to fear as Papyrus is completely and utterly-," he began. Verdana took off from the stairs and jumped out the window. "Why did Verdana jump out of the-?"

Gaster soon followed the cat. He leapt through the broken window. "Please! Come back," he yelled.

Toriel and Papyrus blinked at the display. Frisk, Chara, and Asriel soon followed down the stairs. "Don't run," Toriel scolded.

All three children stopped in their tracks. "Sorry," Frisk apologised. "We're just trying to help catch Verdana."

Toriel nodded. "Don't run down the stairs and don't even think about jumping out of the window."

Papyrus nodded. "Yeah! It's dangerous, unless you know what you're doing, or are Undyne."

"generally, it's a good idea to not jump out of windows," Sans stated as he walked down the stairs.

Papyrus grinned. "SANS!" He tackled the skeleton. "Sans! I thought I l-lost you a-and… and that they wouldn't reset, so I-I couldn't see you again," Papyrus picked Sans up from off the ground. "You need to be more careful than you are!"

Sans nodded. "sorry bro. i'll uh… make sure that i don't do that again. well, i mean, i have no reason to go back there. sorta figured out who the cat is."

Papyrus gasped. "Wowie! She figured out her name?"

Sans nodded once more. "unfortunately, that's why she left." Sans walked close to Toriel. "so uh… do you remember anything that happened before? something bad happened to me, if you remember."

Toriel furrowed her brow. "No. Can't say I do." She sighed and looked to Asriel. "Is it one of those 'resets' that you told me about?"

Asriel nodded. "Yeah."

Sans breathed a sigh of relief. "well, now that this is done, time to track down the cat."

"I'm going too," Papyrus exclaimed. "I'll make sure nothing happens to you!"

Sans chuckled. "okay papyrus. so obviously, we aren't going the same way dad went. hmmm… she probably went underground. i mean, it's a lot less crowded down there now… and that is where her killer was."

Papyrus frowned. "So maybe she wanted revenge, or something."

"She was killed," Toriel questioned. "Oh, so she's like Asriel was. That's sad. Her family must have gone through some trying times when she died. Well, I do hope you manage to find her. Good luck." Toriel smiled.

"hehe. thanks." Papyrus summoned a door to the Underground and turned the knob. Everyone walked through the door. Papyrus shut the door behind him.

And done! So, now the cat's run away. Now they've gotta find her. I'm pretty sure that Gaster wants to find Gilda too. Well, thanks for reading. Bye guys!
