After a few momemts of this child hugging you and crying, you stood up and explained that you needed to visit Alphys. You wanted to see if she knew where Mettaton could be at the moment, for you wanted to apologize to him about what had happened earlier.

As you aaid your goodbyes and walked towards the front door, you felt a tug on your gloved hand. Looking down, you saw that the child was holding your hand in their own. It seemed as if they wanted to go with you to Alphys's lab.

"Did you want to go with me," you asked as you picked the small beig up and placing them on your shoulders. They giggled silently and nodded enthusiastically, holding onto your robotic head with a gentle touch. "Alright, then. Umm, Sans, is it alright if they come with me?"

The short skeleton walked over with his large grin and looked at you. He nodded slowly before speaking in a slightly serious tone, warning you to be careful with the child. "frisk is like a little flower. if you crush them, i'll crush you, got it? have fun, you two."

As Sans closed the front door behind you, you shivered and took the kid, or Frisk as you learned to call them, off of your shoulders and instead held them as if they were a toddler. To be honest, you didn't know how old they were, but once Alphys added sign language to your data base, you could ask them.

Upon entering the lab, you saw Alphys working on a small chip and Mettaton lying on a table, looking rather lifeless. He wasn't dead, was he? You sure hoped you didn't kill him with the tiny shock from earlier. As you set Frisk down, they ran over to Alphys to help her with what she was doing.

"O-oh! H-h-hi, Frisk! A-and (Y/n)! B-boy, you s-s-sure did a number on M-Mettaton during the b-battle..." Alphys smiled sheepishly at Frisk as they signed something to her. Mettaton lay completely still, but seemed to be staring into your soul. It was rather creepy if you were being completely honest with yourself.

"O-oh my g-gosh, really! I f-forgot t-t-to add sign l-language!? O-o-oh, dear." Alphys shuffled over to you after setting the chio doen and opened uo your chest plate. Her claws were oddly warm and she moved wires around, searching for something.
