Chapter 3, Good times come slow this time

Frisk then walked out of the bathroom in their clothes and made their way for the living room where Toriel was nowhere to be seen. Frisk looked around a bit before finally just deciding to make themselves something instead, they made themselves some left over cold pie and some milk and sat down at the table and began to eat away at the food, it was cold, but still satisfying to eat, nonetheless.

“Psst! Hey!” shouted a voice in which Frisk looked around munching on their food until they saw Flowey peeking in from the window.

“Hey Asriel” Frisk replied

“Don’t call me that around here dummy! Anyway, I came to check on your dumbass…you serious about this whole thing, getting the best ending again?” Flowey said looking at them with doubt

“…Flowey, you know I would never break a promise this big and important” Frisk said with absolute certainty. Flowey looked down for a moment before leaving, Frisk continued to eat away with their food, it felt like hours as Toriel was away, but Frisk figured it wasn’t too big of a deal and so decided to just put away where she might be and decided to just keep relaxing for a couple more moments. Frisk sat down in Toriel’s chair and rested in it, the chair was 5x bigger then they were, but Frisk didn’t mind at all and just fell into the cushions with comfort in mind. After a few hours Toriel would soon return a little exhausted and partially injured.

“Heheh, those monsters sure are getting better at their routines.” Toriel said as she then walked to the living room and saw Frisk sleeping in her chair. Toriel stared at them for a moment before making her way to the kitchen, Toriel grabbed some frozen pie and before she put it in the oven to heat up she then looked back at Frisk who was snoring away on her chair. Toriel looked down at the frozen pie

“…Damnit” Toriel scowled as she dumped the pie in the garbage and grabbed a cookbook as she began to bake a fresh pie. Frisk later woke up in the bedroom with a Pie on the desk in there

“…Toriel” Frisk muttered to themselves as they went over and took a bite out of the pie, however they then could hear Toriel walking back and fourth down the hallway, Frisk took a peek outside their door and saw her sitting against the front door “

Damnit, what you doing Tor?, I should have killed the human and been done with it, forgotten about it entirely, but instead I’m cooking for it and even wasting time worrying about it” Toriel said with pain in her voice as she lit a cigarette

“Damnit” she said again as she slumped against the door. Frisk could only watch for so long before having to look away and go back to sleep.

The next day Frisk and Toriel began to wonder around the Ruins looking through it all

“So what are we doing here Toriel?” Frisk asked as they walked with Toriel and she fixed up the trap’s mechanisms

“I’m fixing these traps so that we don’t get any more…Guest” Toriel said as she fixed the spike trap

“But what about other monsters?” asked Frisk

“The Monsters in these ruins don’t move around all that much, they’re sloths, they don’t care about anything really…at least not anymore” Toriel said as she finished

“There, done, Now we can begin a little bit of what I planned for today” She said as she turned towards Frisk who then looked to Toriel, instantly Toriel sucker punched Frisk in the face sending them dragging against the floor. Frisk coughed up blood as they tried to get up

“Don’t die just yet human, I want to see what makes you so damn special that you think you can come into my life and just start messing things up!” Toriel shouted as she then grabbed Frisk by their hair and smashed their face into a wall

“T-toriel…I don’t understand!” Frisk asked confused as their nose leaked blood

“You don’t understand!!?! You come here acting all nice like you care about me! Like as if you enjoy my company! Stop pretending that you’re such a good that came into my life! I’ve already lost two of them! I don’t need another! So please, do me a fucking favor and die!” Toriel screamed as the threw black flames towards Frisk who dodged them.

**Toriel attacks you dealing 15 points of damage, but your will keeps you standing, and you regain 5 hp**

Toriel looked over at Frisk with anger and frustration in her face and yet it all had a twist of despair and grief like no other

“…All I want is to be with you Toriel, I want to help you through what your going through…p-please” Frisk said as they wiped their head of blood

“Why?! You don’t know anything about me!!!” Toriel screamed as more black flames whizzed towards you and after you, Frisk ran around dodging and ducking out of the way until finally hiding behind a pillar

“Come out here so that I can burn you to ashes you damn parasite! All you humans have ever done is leach onto us and suck away whatever we had left, you never for once even try to understand that maybe we want to be left alone! You corrupted this world, the underground and my husband!! Your kind ruins everything it touches!!!” she screamed as black flames whizzed past Frisk head, in their heart they knew Toriel was right, but deep down they knew they had to get her to understand “Toriel please!” Frisk shouted as they came from out of the pillar with their hands up facing Toriel, one of the flames blew into Frisk arm.

**Toriel’s attack hit you for 9 attack points, but your will kept you together giving you 1 hp back!**

“…Toriel please…I know that humans do more harm then good and sometimes none at all, but you have to see we’re not all like that and that I truly do care for you, I don’t want to hurt you or anyone for that matter. All I want to do is be your friend!” Frisk shouted with passion and promise as Toriel stared at them with seething anger and distrust

“Don’t come back to my home human or I will burn you to paste!” Toriel said as they began to walk away leaving Frisk behind. Frisk watched as Toriel and left and even other monsters who were watching before eyed her as she left the human all alone. Hours would pass as Frisk would just remain leaning against the pillar they hid behind in the ruins

“I guess she really isn’t coming back” Frisk sighed as they then laid their head against the cold ground only to then see Flowey sticking out of the ground “Flowey?” Frisk said as they leaned up

“Told you this was useless, you never do listen idiot, I don’t care if it was you, chara or…them, you need to just leave this world behind. There’s no way your going to be able to redo what you did before.” Flowey said as he mimicked Frisk face

“Just forget about your **will** and let it slowly fade away, like a leaf in early winter hehehehe” Flowey laughed only for Frisk to then pour water on them from a small little puddle

“hey! Whats the big idea pea brain!!” Flowey shouted as Frisk chuckled

“You know flowers have a tendency to be negative in behavior when not watered, thought you could use some” Frisk smiled only for Flowey to leave the place afterwards. Frisk signed again as they looked back and forth through the ruins only then for a ghost to come through the wall

“Oooooooooh hiiiiiiiii” the ghost exaggerated as it floated very slowly and depressed

“Whats wrong?” Frisk asked

“Oh its nothing you wouldn’t care” the ghost said before looking at Frisk who was sitting and looking at them

“…Well a friend of mine seems to have forgotten about me after getting really big, so I fear that there wont be much of our friendship after this year is up” the ghost said as it began to cry ghostly tears

“If it makes you feel better, I can be your friend and I wont ever forget you!” Frisk said with a big smile

“your just saying that” replied the ghost who then looked at Frisk.

“I pinky promise!” Frisk said with a stern and passion filled voice

“A-a pinky promise!!!” said the ghost In surprise as it looked towards Frisk who had their hand out and ready

“W-well, I suppose that’s alright then, but you better promise…or I’ll possess you” said the ghost in which Frisk shook their head in approval and then shook the ghost hand

“My name is Napstablook” said the ghost

“I’m Frisk” Frisk replied looking back at him

“So what’s a kid like you doing all the way out here in the ruins by yourself, much less a human child” said Napstablook as he sat down or pretended to

“Well I was left behind…but its ok, I’m use to it” said Frisk as all the monsters all looked at them with sad faces, some confusion and others signing with annoyance.

“Well how about you and me play till they get back hu?” Napstablook suggested as they wait and Frisk nodded with approval. Napstablook then made a top hat out of his tears and then him and Frisk began to dance and play all along the ruins as other monster watched in confusion, soon though some younger ones would join them and with them others did too. Soon a whole party was going on in the ruins with everyone playing and chatting with each other. Toriel laid down in her bed in her lingerie reading a book pondering over her discussion

“It had to be done, I couldn’t stand it anymore, the human was making me suffer, I couldn’t take it” She thought to herself as she read through a book on recipes for pies, Toriel then walked over to the human Frisk previously had stayed in. She looked around and noticed the empty plate where the pie was laid when she made it for her and noticed how neat the bed was made, Toriel then sat down on it and rested her butt on it for a couple of moments. She pondered over it and wondered to herself if it really was bad to open up to this human, she then walked over to the living room and looked at her chair where Frisk once slept in

“hmp. A seat far too big for you small child of man” Toriel said to herself as she petted it with her hands.

“Oh chara…dear child…what have you done to me, you’ve rotted me away to my core, now theres nothing left…I have nothing left, so why do I still feel like I want to give more to this world, like as if I owe it something. Its already taken so much from me and yet I continue to give it away so carelessly…” Toriel thought to herself as she stared at the chair and then sat at the dinner table and lit a cigarette and began to smoke it.

“Damn kids…give me a fucking a headache” she said as she looked over at the chair and then towards a Pumpkin pie that laid on the counter from earlier, she had made. Toriel looked outside her window at the large dead tree in her front lawn, it reminded her of life and death, how not so far apart they are and how you must cherish each moment like as if it were the last

“…Damnit” She said as she then got up and got her clothes on and left the house.
