Welcome, Friend!

¨S-So w-what are you going to do about this F-F-Flowey person?¨ Alphys asked as she dressed my wounds. I glare at the floor, feeling the rage settle slowly. When I get my hands on that flower................ I sighed and rubbed the bridge of my nose with my middle and thumb.

¨I don't know. As much as I want to get my revenge for Papyrus, I........I can't.¨

¨W-Why?¨

I stood up and pulled the backpack from off the floor. ¨What would be the point, Alphys? I would just lower myself to his standards, being no better than Flowey! Besides................I-I.........¨ I looked down, hands clenched and eyes shut tightly. ¨I......I can't save monsters............I was framed and..........who would believe me if this was someone else?¨ My name has been tainted. My journey coming to a complete halt. I'm not going to be a savior to them. I would be just another dirty human despite the friendships I've made. That one life........Papyrus...........was one of my biggest challenges...and now?

¨Now that Papyrus is dead, I'll be considered a threat. A monster. A pawn to the motto 'Kill or Be Killed'.¨ I let out another defeated sigh and walk to the exit. ¨I'm going to see if Toriel will let me back. Maybe I can spend the rest of my miserable life with the only person who cares.¨ I laughed, half-heartedly. Slowly, I made my way to the exit when I felt a hand grab onto me; stopping me in my tracks. Not daring to look back, I listened as Alphys spoke up.

¨You......You don't have.....to do this...alone. I know you wouldn't do something like this. Despite everything the video shows..............what you've done for Monster Kid........Napstablook..........Undyne..........Me..................You're not a monster..and you're most certainly not a pawn!¨

I stared at the scientist in shock. She hadn't even stuttered once! She looked up at me and smiled.

¨I know you will do what needs to be done.¨ Looking back down, I thought about what I might be turning my back to. I would be leaving these citizens with no hope for a happy ending. I'll be leaving Napstablook with no one to talk to. I would be going back on my promise to Naomi. I would make myself the worthless trash my foster mother said I was. I would let Alphys down...................

I looked at my only exit, the door open with welcoming arms. I gazed at the scientist who had pleading eyes on me. Whatever I choose, I can't turn back.

I tossed the bag on the floor and turned towards Alphys, standing with determination and heroic awesomeness. ¨Well, I might need some new clothes if I'm to save everyone!¨

She gasped and, because of her height, hugged my legs. I, gladly, pulled her to my height and hugged her back. After our hugging session, I put her down and she immediately darted to her room. She pulled out a human outfit from the room. (Ignore the bag and jewelry) I took it from her hands and, after asking for the bathroom and mumbling a 'thank you', I started getting dressed, starting with my wrinkled, blood-stained shirt.

¨T-There should be a f-first aid kit u-under the sink.¨ Alphys stutters from outside the bathroom. I bend down and open the drawer, finding a first aid kit. I grab it and, after gently closing the drawer, went to work on my wounds.

Time Skip! (Brought to you by this gif!)




After got my hair fixed into the neatest bun I could muster, I picked up my bag with my dirty clothes inside and exited the bathroom. When I got out, I could tell how excited Alphys was when I was finished.

¨W-W-Wow! I d-didn't think it would fit! And it looks so n-nice on you too!¨ she squealed happily. I smiled nervously and laugh.

¨You would be surprised by the small amount of clothes that suit me.¨

¨O-Okay! Now, I-I will give you m-my phone number! T-Then, if you need h-help......I c-could........¨ Suddenly, when I brought my phone up, Alphys froze and frowned at the sight of it.

¨What?¨ I asked, raising an eyebrow.

¨Wh......where'd you get that phone!? It's ANCIENT! It doesn't even have texting. W-wait a second, p-please!¨ She rambled as the beloved phone was taken away.

¨Hey! That phone was from a friend!!!¨

¨I-I know. B-But........¨ Then, after a few noises that, combined, sounded like a car crash, she came back with my phone. ¨Here, I upgraded it for you! It can do texting, items, it's got a key chain............I even signed you up for the underground's No. 1 social network!¨ I clicked a little icon and saw that it took me directly to the network.

¨Heh. It's kind of like Facebook.¨

¨Y-Yea! And now we're officially friends!¨ she gushed, giggling. I grinned, happy to make another friend who I can see and is not dead! (#DepressedLonelyHero :( ) She continued to giggle, awkwardly, and decided to go to the bathroom. I decided to look around and spotted the small ancient computer on the desk. I say ancient because everybody uses laptops and these are like the ones you find in libraries. Either way, I sneaked a glance at it and see that she is working on a puzzle in................Snowdin?

It may be a little bit weird, but I think she was the one who hacked into Papyrus' tile puzzle. It would make sense since the oblivious skeleton said it was created by Dr. Alphys herself. I walked into the fridge, knowing she might not mind if I grab one little food item. I look and can only find instant noodles. I take it and plan to tell the scientist about it when she comes back. I go upstairs and look around. A lot of the bookshelves have stacks on DVDs, VHS's, and comic books that are labeled 'Human History'. Looking closer, I can recognize the characters in being some sort of anime.

¨Well, that's 'Human CULTURE' but I don't think it matters.¨ I giggle to myself and move towards another desk. On there, dusty blueprints were laid on the wooden table. Dusting off the papers, I can make out sketches of a monster soul and an arrow going towards the sketch of a human soul. I knew it was a monster soul since seeing.........you know. Alphys had more cameras set up, including one inside of the skele-bros house. Speaking of that, what was weird was how familiar that faker's attitude was. Not to mention the tone of her voice. Shaking off that feeling as paranoia, I could see that the words were the same wacky font.

Not finding anything else interesting, I head out only to hear a startlingly loud beep from my phone. Fumbling it out of my pocket, I open the loud electronic to see it was from the Underground's network:

ALPHYS updated status.

ALPHYS: just realized i didn't watch undyne fight the human. V.V

I stifle a laugh and put the phone back, walking straight when another update came up:

ALPHYS updated status.

ALPHYS: well i know she's unbeatable i'll ask her about it later. ^.^

I sighed, I guess this is going to be like this for the whole trip? I sighed and continued walking.
