"Howdy new partner. I'll be helping you through the Underground. Flowey wants Frisk to suffer. I do too. But I can tell that Frisk is no longer the one in control. So I will help you survive, but no killing. We've had too much of that with Frisk."

Chapter 6: Flowey and the monster mask

It's been about a year now. It seems that while we've been making small leaps forward with our own research, the PoS has been experimenting with ways to kill us off down here.

Chara came running down to the lab with a sentient flower. They said it was Asriel and that she needs a soul replacement now. I quickly had my team gather, and Chara forced me to use bit of their soul if needed. We took the little bit of Chara's soul in Asriel and formed it into a carapace. As this took place, Chara kept explaining everything: the package that came from the PoS, how they made it look like a m-h monster mask package, the cursed mask, and how Asriel unwillingly transformed and her soul shattered. Chara only thought about keeping their sister alive, and so tore a piece of their soul out and gave it Asriel.

Things were going well. We set Chara up on an examination table to check on their soul, to make sure the tear isn't anything to worry about. I also explained that I may need a little more of their determination for the artificial soul.

I had just finished shaping Asriel's new carapace with Chara's determination, when I heard a shrill scream. I turned around, and a couple of the human scientists have begun attacking everyone.

Monsters dusted after only a couple of hits. With quick thinking, I put my mask on and summoned my spectral shield hands, one for myself and Asriel, and one for the remaining survivors. None of the assailants were attacking Chara, so I didn't worry too much about them. I gave enough time for the monster-humans to gather their wits and retaliate. I, too, retaliated with various attacks. However, diverting my attention weakened my shielding. The two humans took notice of me and began attacking my shield containing me and Asriel. The strain was excruciating. One of them had to be a soul mage. And I was right. While using my telekinesis to fling a mug at one of the attackers, colored contacts came out, and I saw bright yellow eyes. They screamed at they attacked with their soul bullets; my shield started to crack. I kept the two's attention on me as I moved the shield with my team in it to out of the door. I used the last of my energy to lock the door and jam it so no one could get in. I knew of a secret way out. I resummoned the second spectral hand to form around Chara, who I noticed was struggling out of their binds.

Everything became fuzzy after that. I was mildly aware of being tired. I was in pain. My soul was straining. I'm pretty sure I black out at some point. I heard screaming. One I think was my own as my magic finally failed me and I could no longer take the pain. The others were all foreign. I then felt heat; it was a searing heat. I heard a loud boom. Then I felt cold. But then I felt warm again. I then heard crying. In my delirium, I thought I may have died. But soon I came to.

I was in a hospital bed. A monster nurse was wrapping my arms and healing my soul. My mask laid on the table beside my bed.

I looked past the nurse and saw Chara lying on the other side of the medical curtain. Asriel was crying on the bedside table beside them. I didn't understand why, until I saw the container with a shattered red soul. I don't remember this, but when I came back to lucidity, a doctor had come in saying that I was screaming and thrashing around trying to get to Chara.

Torel and Asgore came to see me. We didn't talk for a while. They seem disappointed in me. I mean, why wouldn't they? I failed to keep their children alive. One is dead, and one is stuck as a flower because I failed.

As soon as I was released from the hospital, I went to the lab to see the damage. Asriel filled me in on what happened in my delirium. I kept trying to shield the three of us. Once the spectral hands shattered, though, I used the last of my magic to send a bone attack at the two attackers. One of them died instantly, and their soul [Asriel said it looked like hers] shattered. The Soul Mage shot at me and Asriel, but Chara got in the way, taking the damage. They dragged me and Asriel to the secret exit before collapsing. The Soul Mage destroyed everything: shooting at all the electronic equipment and setting a fire on all the paperwork before they too succumbed to their wounds and died. We three were later found by an emergency rescue service and taken to the hospital. I apparently was on the cusp of falling down, a comatose like state, more common of an occurrence for monsters/those with monster souls that is almost impossible to wake from. I was resuscitated before that could happen. Chara's soul was encapsulated in a clear container. Asriel had a talk with her parents. She was worried they might be mad at her for not thinking, for accepting a shady gift, but they only showed empathy and warmth, happy she was alive. Why wouldn't they? They plan on burying Chara's body in Their and Asriel's garden at the entrance of the Ruins. Torel will also move out permanently to the Haunted Ruins so as to prevent any more incidents from happening.

The laboratory was a mess. I salvaged what I could, which was hardly anything. I will have to rewrite all the notes. [I will also encode the more secretive and important notes in Wing Dings, something I've already been doing in this journal.] I found the soul mage's soul. [I also found the pieces of the regular human's soul. It didn't have any fullness to it. It had just determination where the carapace would be. It's just like Asriel said. I will have to see what makes the two similar. I will take both of these souls home with me where I have a mini lab set up in the back for emergency use. I already have Chara's soul pieces there. The medical staff have no need for shattered soul pieces, so they gave it to the Dreemurrs to decide. I mentioned Chara's request at using their soul for future experiments. I couldn't look them in the eyes. Asgore gave me the container saying that they trusted me to put their soul to good use.] I didn't find the human's soul.

Update: I have been running some very small tests with Asriel. We've tested if Asriel has kept any of her old abilities or if she's gained any. She has lost all of her previous magic abilities but has gained new flower based attacks. [I also ran some tests to compare her soul and the human's. She exclaimed that she didn't feel as emotionally attached to people like she used to. She first felt this numbness when she saw her parents weeping for her, but she thought it may have been due to shock from the past 24 hours. But even when she talked to old friends, she didn't feel as strongly as she once did for anyone. She also states that she feels angrier and more bitter about what happened. Results, inconclusive. Needs more subjects.]

Update: There have been more frequent resets as of late. So far, they've all reset to the same day. There was a reset going a day back to this particular day, an unremarkable day on my end, but then several resets occurred an hour later, then mere seconds. About 10 resets occurred within this short time frame. All reset to about midday on that unremarkable day. I don't know what exactly this could mean, but I do know one thing: someone new has access to the reset.

Update: While waiting for a new lab to be built, I have taken up teaching science on many different grade levels at the Underebott K-12 school. But that's not the reason for this entry. While taking a break, I happen to spot Asriel talking to some of the children on the playground. When the children were called back inside for class, they said quote "Bye-bye Flowey." Why is Asriel using the name Flowey, especially after a month after the incident has occurred? What changed? I approach Asriel with these questions. While Asriel was dismissive about it, saying that they were trying something, the moment they left, a reset occurred, stopping at a couple minutes before I had my break. As soon as I dismissed my class, I made a beeline for the playground to find the little flower. Unfortunately, she disappeared the moment we locked eyes. The next week, I spent most of my non-working time trying to find Asriel.

Update: I confront Asriel. It took a while and a couple of small resets, but I finally managed something. I asked again why Asriel decided to start calling themself Flowey now out of any other time, and if she has access to the resets. [It was at that moment, as well as Asriel screaming, that I realized I was using magic, more specifically telekinesis, on Asriel, and had lifted her up in the air, derooting her. I set her down and left.] She refused to give me any information and asked to be left alone. I will let her come to me to talk whenever she wants. I can be patient.

Hey, stop scrolling.

Everyone who is reading this: I’m so glad you’re alive. I’m so proud of you. You are loved. I’m here. Don’t give up, we’re almost there.

Pass it on.

I'm literally in the process of adding my AUs, multiverses, ship children, and outcodes right now. I'm still on my first one, but that's because I'm going in depth with it.

Okay, so- I have seen people getting bored/uninterested of/in the Undertale Fandom and dropping out- so- I’d like to know something...

Please reblog if you’re still into Undertale or it’s AUs or ship children!

Ignore if you’re not…
