Frisk gasped, as did Sans.

"It.. It really IS you!" They both exclaimed, charging towards each other, just as Flowey starting to consider his possible future career as a psychic.

Tears rolled down Frisk's face as she hugged Sans tightly. You're... really... here...

Sans returned the embrace just as tightly, before stiffening as he noticed something.

Frisk only had... a single golden flower...?

The rest of them were gone...

"Sweetie?" The confusion was clear in his voice, as was hope.

"Where are your....flowers?"

Frisk smiled.

From Gaster to Toriel, she explained everything to Sans.

And when she neared the end, the girl remembered the conversation she bad with Toriel and tears started to well up in her eyes.

Sans caught sight of her teary eyes instantly, and decided to steer the topic away from dangerous watets.

"Hey, what did the egg say to the other egg?"

Frisk began to smile. "What?"

"You're looking EGG-cellent today!"

At that, Frisk managed an unelegant snort and Sans smiled. It had been a long time since he heard Frisk laugh.

He had missed this.

---

 Frisk yawned rather loudly, before blushed in embarrassment at the brazen action.

It had been a long and emotional day, and Frisk was drained. As such, she had even forgotten her manners--!

But Sans was simply amused.

Bidding the girl goodnight, he accompanied Frisk in checking in at the Snowdin Inn,  before parting ways.

It was a good night.

    Frisk had spoken too soon.

Once her head had sunk into her soft pillow, and her eyes closed, she was greeted with the wonderful image of piercing red eyes.

                  Chara.

     "What am I doing here... AGAIN?!" Desperation tugged at her heart as Frisk stumbled away, emotion filling up her facial expression.

She was in the void.

But Chara...

Chara only gave cruel smirk, lips tugging into a smile sweeter than honey, and yet faker than counterfeit money.

"Ah~ Such a pleasant surprise seeing you here~"

Frisk clenched her lips.

Even an infant could have been able to see past her seemingly surprised words and detect the underlying mockery in her tone.

"Well, no matter~ I'm here to make a deal with you!" Chara easily dismissed, before dropping an almost-bombdrop.

Frisk blinked.

She had NOT expected herself to be here, witnessing Chara attempting to... negotiate.

She frowned. "Speak. What is this deal?"

Chara smirked, red eyes glinting slightly as she offered nonchalently. "You let me borrow your body and I'll get you up to the surface."

Frisk blinked again.

Um...

Chara sighed.

"Ah, sorry. I'll rephrase that. I'll get you up to the surface without you dying RIGHT IN FRONT of the barrier!" She snarled.

"No."

Frisk's eyes narrowed, already reading past the 'benefits' of the deal. Chara gaining control would lead to a massacre, and Frisk could not allow it.

And that was it.

A big fat no.

Chara's facade immediately dropped.

Pleasantries were over, Frisk supposed.

"Haha~!" Chara giggled madly, before whispering creepily into Frisk's ear.

  
"Since when were you the one in control?"

Red filled Frisk vision, as the pain of Chara's knife slammed against her soul viciously.

ithurtsithUrTSITHURTS-

Frisk awoke.

Screaming soundlessly.

"Chara... is back..."
