For Tondra, his house was large. Empty of beer, sadly, but still large.

Not as large as the underground, of course. The large caverns towered above the girl when she was at home, house after house being claimed as her own. No one else had claim over them anymore, as the monsters had left, so naturally they were up for grabs. A few houses were entirely owned by the children, there was so many Sans left some of them up for grabs. Not to live in, as they would still live as a family, but to store their stuff and to do other things as. When Addy was younger, Tondra would take her sister to her own home and they would play house.

Her house was situated inside of Snowdin. It was a small and dainty house, right next to the river where ice would automatically be dispensed to the core. Just a simple single floor, with two large round windows and the orange roof covered in snow. Tondra loved snow, naturally she spent most of her time in Snowdin. Ice skating with BoBo, climbing trees with Cole, it was fun. Well, not the tree part, as Cole had fell down and broke his arm.

Another part that was odd was her Dad's old house. The Christmas lights that once gave it decoration had burned out, leaving nothing but broken lights and tangled strings left. The windows were all covered by curtains, and the window had been forced shut. A small crack in the doorway revealed bone attacks pressed against the door, ceasing it from its ability to open. Her Dad had originally intended to burn it down, but he couldn't do it. Tondra could understand, he had spent most of his life in that house. She couldn't imagine burning down her own house, even if she did discover that one of her siblings hated her.

For the surface, it was summer, the warm heat rippling through the night air. Even though chemicals had no affect on her, heat and cold weather wasn't included in that package. It was warm, too warm to be wearing her multiple layers.

That was the explanation to why her hoodie was instead thrown over the arm chair, her blue sweater following suit. The brown pants she had been wearing was rolled up to her knees, letting her unshaved legs breath for air from BoBo's lap.

"You need to shave," Silky had told her, sitting down across from her on the couch.

"You got a razor?" Tondra asked her, giving her a look.

"She's right, I needa shave too," Leonie joked, rubbing at her skeletal legs.

"Feel my leg hairs," Tondra taunted Cole, sticking out her leg towards him.

"Leg hair competition, let's do this!" Cole growled, quickly moving to roll up his cargo pants.

The two stuck out their bare legs next to one another, comparing leg hair as Silky muttered complaints about their actions.

"Hair we are, back to comparing our legs," Tondra joked.

"I- Oh f*ck, where'd this come from?" Cole pulled a random wallet out of his pocket. "Sh*t, happened again."

"Um, can we get, uh, started?" Addy asked her siblings.

Tondra glanced at her sister. This meeting was occurring in the middle of the night for some reason, no one else around. Papyrus was asleep upstairs, along with Alphys and Undyne. All of their parents and Uncle Jeff were there. Tondra would admit she was a little upset not seeing her own Father there, but she wasn't the only Cole. Cole's Mom was gone, as was Silky's and BoBo's.

"Yes, indeed," Silky said, adjusting herself so she was sitting at the edge of the couch. "You came at a rather good time, Tondra. If you two could stop rubbing your legs together on BoBo's lap, that would be helpful."

"It's okay! I don't mind!" BoBo said, playing with Cole's big toe.

"Uh, should we go wake up Uncle Papyrus?" Addy asked them, looking up at her Father.

Eyeless Jack shook his head, hugging his daughter who was sitting on his lap. "I'd rather not."

"You guys can tell him or not. I'm not best friends with the guy, but he's not on my hit list. He's trying," Jeff said, "And trying is more than what most of the people in my life have done."

"We can tell him later, right now he needs sleep. He's been dealing with all of us," Tim explained.

"It's not any life changing discoveries, really," Helen added, adjusting his bloody mask.

"Alright, so, pretty much," Leonie began, pulling out her phone. "Silky and our many Dads already know this, but I kinda snatched a book from the museum. I couldn't remember why I recognized the symbols until I showed Silky, and she reminded me that they were the one's Tondra liked to use."

"Although risky, Leonie may have just helped us greatly," Silky said, crossing her hands on her lap. "It was a book written about demons and religion. That can be told by the two triangles on the front, they represent demon horns. We're unsure if it contains useful information, as none of us could read it. However..."

Everyone glanced at Tondra.

Oh, right. Tondra had always been able to read and write unusual runes. She had never really come across them from another person until this morning, when she had saw the weapons. They were the first runes in her life that she encountered that wasn't from herself, naturally Tondra had gotten a little excited. No one knew where they had come from, or why Tondra knew them She just did, they just made sense.

"Could I see the book?" Tondra asked.

"I had to return it, but your sister got pictures," Ben explained from the T.V.

Leonie nodded, standing up with her phone in hand. She walked across the room before twisting the phone in her hand, giving it to her sister. Tondra pinched her fingers onto the screen and dragged them out, effectively zooming in on the photo.

"Yeah, I can read this," Tondra confirmed, looking at Leonie. "Was this the only book?"

"There was six of them, Leonie only grabbed this one." Silky adjusted her shirt. "Out of instinct. We all know that Leonie has good instincts, and if she took the time to steal a book, we can understand this single book is likely important. We won't be able to return, the museum is recovering from the last robbery."

Cole grinned at her, shrugging. "Whoops?"

"So we at least know by now that demons are definitely involved in Sans' and Hew's disappearance," Eyeless Jack said, rubbing his daughters head. "For certain, at least."

"Which indicates they are both likely in hell, otherwise Ben would have been able to transfer through the phone." Silky concluded.

"I can still sense it, it just feels like there's a barrier," Ben explained.

"Do you think it might be from me?" Tondra asked.

"I've thought over that idea. If they were aiming for you, I do believe they would have targeted you first instead of Dad. And if they had been aiming to remove the danger by targeting the more powerful of us, they would have gone after my Father as well." Silky glanced around the room. "This isn't just demon proxies, their leader obviously wants all of us for reasons we don't know. It's not just you and your abilities, Tondra. And if they were hunting people with demonic traits, Eyeless Jack and Addy would also be on their radar. Not entirely demon, but exhibiting some of their traits."

Tondra nodded, sighing. Their family wasn't composed of just monsters and humans. Slender and Silky were an entirely different species of their own, and Laughing Jack technically was just an imaginary friend. Eyeless Jack used to be human, but after the incident, he wasn't His skin was grey, he had sharp teeth, and needed to eat organs. He had no eyes. Tondra wasn't affected, she's grown up with him all her life, and he was her Dad. They all practically were, really, she had a gang of Dads. But their family did have some hints of demon within them from him and Addy.

The question had always been how it somehow spread to Tondra, too.

The female peeled back her blue goggles, revealing bright blue slitted eyes that didn't look human. They glew softly through the dark air, pupils narrowing as she glanced down at the phone. With her mouth mask pulled away, Tondra spoke again, the scar on her cheek revealed under the soft glow of the nearby lamp.

"Either way, I guess this family would have eventually become involved with demons," Tondra spoke, pointy teeth pulling back into a large grin. "We were all going to hell at some point."
