With a single stomp, she was able to make the veggies needed fall from the cabinet and land onto counter. I was amazed how these vegetables weren't even squashed by the impact. It was like she was some sort of god when it comes to cooking! She grabs my hands and clenched them into fists, Undyne's body standing right behind me.

¨Envision these vegetables as your greatest enemy! Now!! Pound them into dust with your fists!¨ she commanded and, following orders, I smashed them to the best of my ability. However, instead of smashing them, I punched the counter as the tomato escaped from my wrathful actions. I bit my lip and shut my eyes, trying my hardest not to scream and cry in agony. I look at my knuckles and they were red with some blood coming out from several spots. I whimpered softly.

Despite my failure, however, Undyne looked excited and fist bumped the air.

¨YEAH! YEAH! Our hearts are uniting against these healthy ingredients!¨

¨Wait, that was good? I thought you would call me a wimpy punk?¨

¨Nah, that was AWESOME! NOW IT'S MY TURN!¨ she roared and punched the defenseless products of nutrients with a single yet powerful punch. The result was quite messy. Vegetable 'blood' was splattered all over the counter top, polka-dot wall, and even Undyne's face. She beamed at me with a goofy, embarrassed grin.

¨Uhh, we'll just scrape this into a bowl later. But for NOW!¨ At that, she stomped once more and a pot filled with water was on the burner; sitting their idly. ¨.....we add the noodles. Homemade noodles are the best! BUT I JUST BUY THE STORE-BRAND! THEY'RE THE CHEAPEST!!!¨ Undyne laughed as she clenched her fists and raised them towards the ceiling. For some reason, that pose makes her look like those bad guys you find in cartoons like Looney Tunes, etc. It was kind of funny to watch but I just smiled to keep myself from laughing.

¨Yep, store-brand is pretty good.¨

She rubbed the back of her neck, nervously. She must have gotten carried away.

¨Uhh, just put them in the pot. ¨

Undyne looks like more of the reckless chef, so I tried to copy her enthusiasm. I grabbed the noodles, took as much as I can grab, and threw them into the still water. Sadly, the box flew in there as well but she looked pleased.

¨YEAH!!! I'M INTO IT!!! Alright! Now its time to stir the pasta! As a general rule of thumb, the more you stir.........THE BETTER IT IS! Ready?¨

¨Uhh, no?¨

¨Let's do it!¨ I grabbed the wooden spoon and started to stir the pasta in a rough pace. The water splashed onto my skin but I tried to ignore it. Key word, 'tried'.

¨Stir harder!¨ I obeyed. It was a lot harder since I am not used to stirring this hard. I know, such a weakling. Undyne continued to demand me to go harder; her enthusiasm reaching its highest. Despite my tiring arms, I continued to stir harder. Then, she sighed in annoyance.

¨Ugh, let me do it! ¨

Suddenly, she summoned the spear and started smashing the pot and noodles with great ferocity. I yelped and hid behind Undyne; hoping to not get hit by any flying debris. It went like this for a few minutes until the pot was nothing more than a crumpled piece of metal with noodles, crunched into little pieces. I widened my eyes at the sight of the natural disaster. She let out a victorious laugh.

¨That's the stuff! Alright, now for the final step: TURN UP THE HEAT! Let the stove top symbolize your passion! Let your hopes and dreams turn into a burning fire! READY?¨

¨Undyne? I think this is a little unsafe-¨

¨Don't hold anything back!!!!¨ I squeaked and turned it up to where boiling point is. The metal seemed to crackle and I had to run back to Undyne, who was my shield. ¨Hotter!¨ I gulped and turned it beyond the boiling point. I watched as the pot was halfway engulfed in the flames of the stove. I went higher and Undyne kept urging me to put it up higher. I kept going up, the pot already consumed by flames. I laughed and kept going higher. Undyne cheered me on until she realized that it might have been a little too 'hot'.

¨Wait, that's too-¨ Suddenly, the stove exploded and I was sent flying to the right wall with a ton of force. I shrieked as my body made impact with the wall; feeling my bones crack. I fell to the ground and I whimpered at my aching, pained body. Undyne was still standing and had only a few burns. The opposite could be described for me. I felt something wet trickling down my forehead, my shoulder dislocated, my lip bleeding, and an army of bruises invading my body.

I can see that Undyne's body was completely covered in black ash. But we weren't as bad as this house. Hopefully, they had insurance down here. I would hate to see the bill for this mess. Despite that, she seemed to be smiling. It was weird. I was a human and I destroyed her house and......she was happy?

¨Ah. Man, no wonder Papyrus sucks at cooking. ¨ she laughed. I smiled and giggled, watching the disaster play out before us. ¨So what's next? Scrap booking? Friendship bracelets?............Who am I kidding. I really messed this up, didn't I? I can't force you to like me, human. Some people just don't get along with each other. I understand if you feel that way about me. And if we can't be friends.....that's okay.¨ She sighed sadly and watched the small fire on the counter burn into it. The way she looked, it........it made me sad. I looked up at her and hugged her. She tensed up as I hugged her.

¨To be honest, it was pretty crazy. But, I still want us to be friends.¨ She frowned and looked at me, slightly puzzled.

¨Really? You......You had a great time?¨ I nodded and smiled, causing her to smile back. ¨Heh. You sure are a weird human.¨

¨I'm a wimpy loser with a big heart, remember?¨ I joke, playfully. She lets out a snicker in agreement.

¨Just like him...........Asgore.........Listen.......Human. It seems you and Asgore are fated to fight. But knowing him............He probably doesn't want to. ¨ She squats into my level and ruffles my hair, staring into my eyes with her own now soft ones. ¨Talk to him. I'm sure you can persuade him to let you go home. Eventually, some mean human will fall down here..........And I'll take THEIR soul instead.¨

¨But, Undyne. I'm not down here to-¨

¨I know but...........you don't need to worry about us. That is a lot of weight on a punk like you. You don't need that on your conscious. That's what friends are for, right?¨ she smiles. I look down and play with my fingers. My plan was NEVER to leave them behind and she knows it. But, why does she want me to leave so badly? Is there something bigger that I don't know about?

Before I could say anything else, she carried me out of the house and we watched as it burned in flames. Afterwards, she helped relocate my shoulder into the proper socket. It stung a little but, surprisingly, my arm was back to normal.

¨Well, that was fun, huh? We'll have to hang out again another time.........¨

¨Definitely! But, let's try not to burn a house down. I would hate to see the bill.¨ I flinched. She let out a breathless laugh. ¨Hey, Undyne. What were you going to say before?¨

¨Say what?¨

¨You said you were going to tell me something after this get together. What is it?¨

¨Uhhh. It's nothing, I already told ya. Just talk to Asgore and he might not beat you to a pulp.¨ I nodded and waved her goodbye as I left Undyne's house. Gaster appeared next to me.

¨Well, I am glad THAT was over.¨ I started to giggle at him which made him extremely confused. ¨What?¨

¨You have A LOT of something on your face!¨ I said through giggles. He looked like a mad scientist who experienced another failed experiment. Like........Doc Brown from Back to the Future. He huffed and grabbed a handkerchief, wiping his face with it.

"Do you have to be such a child?¨ I nodded and giggled as we walked away, back to Hotland.
