Chapter 2, Everything is fine

As Toriel and Frisk entered the house Toriel closed the door behind them and began making their way to the kitchen.

“What do you like runt?” Toriel asked as she set the table. Frisk didn’t speak for a moment.

“Well?! I don’t got all damn day to wait till you wanna answer me!” Toriel shouted in which Frisk then payed attention

“Snail Pie please” Frisk nodded in which Toriel smirked

“So a runt with good taste that’s uncommon, Alright, Sit down and shut up I’ll be back” Toriel said as she went to the kitchen and Frisk sat down at the table, they waited for a moment and then began to play with the silverware watching it glisten in the light from the kitchen and dim fire. Frisk then looked around Toriel’s home, it was dingey and a bit dark in some places, but incredibly fancy non the less, She watched as the lights on the dim chandelier above flickered and the shine of the active kitchen flickered on it aswell, Frisk then looked through the Window only to see some monsters staring from the entrance into the Ruins, Frisk’s attention suddenly was grabbed when a plate was slammed in front of them and had Snail Pie on it

“Bon appetite little runt “ Toriel said as she then sat down on the other end of the table and rested her head on her hand watching Frisk. Frisk at the messily put together snail pie witch still tasted cold as if it was taken out of the fridge, Toriel groaned as she then got out a cigarette and began to smoke at the table while Frisk continued to eat.

“So, Runt, tell me, Why you following me hu? I could easily put you out of your misery and then you wouldn’t have to stay here with a old goat like myself” Toriel said as she took a large puff of her cigarette and then exhaled a large cloud all over the table making a mist like thing go over it all

“I figured it might be safer with someone who er well seems to have it all together “ Frisk muttered shyly only for Toriel to slam her hands on the table

“You saying I ain’t got it all together!?!! I’m the most together goat you’ll ever meet in this goddamn underground and don’t you forget it unless you askin to be charcoal!!!” Toriel shouted as she puffed and smoked some more. Probably wasn’t a good idea to antagonize her so Frisk thought up something better

“Your pie is really good, whats your secret?” Frisk asked with a smile while Toriel looked at them unamused and still smoking

“12 Minutes in the microwave and letting it sit for 3” Toriel said as she exhaled another large cloud of smoke and stared more at Frisk

“You know it isn’t right to smoke in front of children” Frisk said with caution in their voice, Toriel looked towards Frisk and then snatched their plate and smushed her cigarette into extinguishing it

“There, happy?” Toriel said smiling sarcastically, Funny enough Frisk hardly sees Toriel even after they befriend her, she still hardly smiles.

Toriel then tossed Frisk their plate and proceeds to go to her big chair in the corner of the room and sits down in it

“Damn my nerves are shot today” Toriel said scratching her ear and then turning on a record player near her on a end table, Frisk looked over and then watched as Toriel began to listen to what sounded like a more slowed down version of some old blues and jazz “ You have good taste in music” Frisk said as they walked over and sat in front of Toriel

“You like Jazz?” Toriel asked

“Yea it has a nice and smooth melody to it that allows for one to feel a amazing amount of calmness and serenity “ said Frisk as they sat down on the floor in front of Toriel, she signed as she laid back while Frisk and her laid there and relaced to some nice Jazz music, listening to the ups and lows of the song as it played, as it went through loops to catch itself for another loop of its amazing track and more some. Toriel then looked down towards to Frisk who had fallen asleep

“What the hell have you gotten yourself into Tori” Toriel thought to herself as she then got another cigarette out only to then look at Frisk who was sleeping “…Tch” Toriel scoffed as she put her cigarettes away and then got up and began to drag Frisk to one of the bedrooms in the hallway, she began to unlock one of the doors, it was a bit creaky from being ignored, but that wasn’t knew

“Sorry for the mess runt, I haven’t had guest in a long time…or maybe I didn’t want any…the hell do I know” Toriel said as she walked into the room and put Frisk to bed and as Frisk laid there Toriel sat on the bed across from her

“My Will doesn’t feel all that strong anymore, not since then…feels a lot less then what I use to be who I use to be. I wonder sometimes if my being alive still is a sign I still got it…im not sure” Toriel said as she looked at the carpet floor of the room while Frisk slept on their back. Toriel then signed and left the room turning off the light and letting Frisk sleep soundly.

As Frisk lay asleep their mind began to wonder and as it did they then found themselves in a dark and empty black void where no light shined and nothing was present and nothing was ending, Frisk walked around this dark void for a moment until they saw a large pile of black goo fall from the sky and plummet to the dark black ground, as it did the dark black void rippled like a river as if a stone had been thrown in a large pond. Frisk looked on as a hand rose out of the darkness and then the rest of a body began to rise up.

“I should have expected you to come seeking answers next…Chara” Frisk said with slight bated breath as Chara emerged out of the darkness of the void staring back at Frisk with a cold and annoyed stare

“Why’d you do it?" Chara asked almost chocking on it “It wasn-“but Frisk was cut off

“Don’t you dare lie to me you sack of shit!” Chara shouted as they summoned their knife

“You convinced me that this was the right move, that this world deserved to be saved, that it was still filled with possibility and wonder…but…why…why did you reset? After all that talk about what it means to utterly understand this world…You…you throw it all away like it was nothing! And you know for one moment I believed you, believed you could be the one human to make a difference in this world that you could be the one to change and see the world in a way I was blind to, but look at us now, we’re right back where we started! You lied to me!” Chara said as their face twisted with betrayal and Regret

“Chara please try to understand that I did mean what I said before and that this world does deserve saving and I didn’t reset, I don’t know what happened. You have to trust me!” Frisk pleaded

“…I did” Chara said as they began to sprint towards Frisk and attack them, Frisk began to dodge and weave through Chara’s attacks the two seemingly almost knowing each other’s attacks with Chara being a lot more aggressive then before and even trying to grab at Frisk however Frisk was already a bit ahead and moved out of the way of those grabs

“You don’t understand Chara, I’m trying to fix the problem, but I can’t do that without moving forward in the this” Frisk said as they grabbed Chara’s hands and tripped them causing them to fall over on their face

“Arghhhh! Stop talking!” Chara shouted as they got up and continued to attack Frisk who continued to dodge and move around their attacks while also sending them off in different directions while doing so too. Chara then sliced at Frisk intensely cutting their nose slightly before grabbing their sweater and punching them in the face sending them back a few feet. Frisk wiped the blood from their nose only to then be kicked in the gut by Chara and be stabbed in the shoulder

“Aghhhh!! Chara! Please listen to me! I’m here to figure things, to see what is happening!” Frisk shouted pleading to Chara who only continued to rush forward towards them. Chara’s tactics and skills were too much for Frisk to handle until Frisk got stabbed in the shoulder and then tripped Chara over and pinned them down only for Char to elbow them in the jaw and kick them off

“Your not getting out of this ass beating alive Frisk! Once I have your body and soul I’ll finally be able to enact what I set out to do before your little dumb speech!” Chara said as they got up and stared Frisk down. Suddenly though a giant pulse rung through the black void and Frisk’s body shook

“N-NO! it can’t be!” Frisk screamed as they fell to their knees and began to shake violently, Chara looked at Frisk shocked, but that was until the Black space began to distort and change into a white one and once the darkness was gone Frisk’s body fell to the ground completely limp

“H-Hey!” Frisk!” Wake up dumbass!” Chara shouted at Frisk’s lifeless body until it finally began to rise and stand in a perfectly straight posture

“What the-Whats going on here!” Chara shouted only for Frisk to look at them with little expression and their hair in their face

“Whats with that look punk!” Chara shouted.

Frisk then opened their menu and began to go to the reset button

“Hey!” Chara screamed as they pounced on Frisk and pinned them to the ground

“Something isn’t right about this, why are you acting this way all of a sudden, wait a second…could this be **them**?” Chara thought to themself only to have Frisk then throw them off

“It is you isn’t…damnit could they have been the one to do it then? I thought their will was broken” Chara thought to themselves as they watched

“Frisk” get up again

“If it truly is them, then I can’t let them get to that button, Don’t think this means your out of this yet Frisk” Chara said as they rushed up to Frisk and stabbed them straight through the chest. Frisk then woke up in bed in a cold sweat and completely drenched

“…W-What was that just now?...Chara and then…ughh” Frisk rubbed their head as they got up and went to the bathroom to shower, as they did Frisk stood there and felt their body

“It doesn’t even feel like mine anymore, its been used so many times and by so many people I…I don’t think I can take it much longer” Frisk said with a shaky voice. Frisk then shook their head and sat down in the shower as the water drenched them, they began to meditate and breath in and out as the water rushed down their body and bounced off their legs.
