Bête Noire was sitting in the abandoned shack late at night. She decides now is the time to plan her attack on the city. She knew the school attack was curbed with Develyn, Asriel, Frisk, and Andy, so she wishes they won't stop.

She went and took a walk far, even to the edge of town where she stumbled upon the Ebott County Cemetary, where all humans, and some Monsters, are laid to rest for eternity while their own SOULs that were unabsorbed spend eons upon eons in Sovngarde or Oblivion. Obviously, it was after hours, so the graveyard was closed and being caught by the grave tender would result in trespassing, one the most serious crimes in existence.

Bête hopped the fence and went to the graveyard of Chara Dreemurr herself, but the stone was mysteriously tampered with, as if it was vandalized. That didn't matter to Bête Noire, however. She spent a several minutes, extracting the coffin from the site. She opened the coffin to find skeletal remains.

"Damn it... I'm too late. Unless..." Bête whispered until she realized she can extract her own hate to give Chara permanent body. Through a series of dark magic, which included necromancy, Chara was put into a body, but it was SOULless. Bête soon carried the corpse back and walked out of the cemetary, being completely undetected. The grave tender soon noted the tampered gravesite.

Back at the shack, Bête Noire soon did some more dark magic. She soon split herself into two, causing her Akumu to be merged into her. She experienced dramatic changes. The cornea of her eyes became black as night, while her sclera became a bright pink. She used the other half of her SOUL to integrate within Chara, giving Chara life for the first time since 2016.

She then looked at the ash pile that was once Flowey. With a tiny bit of magic, Bête Noire reanimated the ash pile into Flowey.

"Yes... Another domino falls in my plan..." Bête noted. She did a check to see of her minions can hear her, which they did.

"Where am I?" Chara asked.

"Alive... Under MY guidance," Bête Noire answered.

"What is it that you need?" Flowey asked.

"Simple, I plan to pull off a large scale attack in the city in a couple of days, but I have this issue. Last time I did an attack, it was quickly halted by the four kiddos of the Dreemurr family. I plan to have this attack go through without any issues. So, I have a compromise for you two. You stop them, you can join me in causing a mass extinction event of all Monsters," Bête Noire explained.

"You want me to stop them?" Chara asked.

"Exactly," Bête answered.

"Hehe. I guess there's someone on my list I can start with first... Develyn. He brought me down a few years ago, and I don't think a second round will have him beating me. I'll take care of him first, then I can reach Frisk a bit later," Chara noted.

"Go after her brother also," Bête added.

"I guess I should pay Asriel a visit, what do you say?" Flowey asked.

"Yes. That'll be perfect if you'll take care of him," Bête Noire added.

"When do we strike?" Chara asked.

"We strike in a few days. I'll call in a large horde of dementors to terrorize the people. When the four are distracted, I call you guys to take care of them all. After that, I'll finish the rest," Bête explained.

"Perfect," Chara added.

"Those idiots will definitely be VERY surprised that we're back," Flowey added.

Develyn awoke early in the morning with intelligence that the attack planned by Bête Noire will be taking place soon, and Chara and Flowey were brought back to be a part of the attack. Develyn slowly walked outside and sat down on the chair outside and looked down at the horizon. He remembers taking down both Chara and Flowey three years ago. It was a rainy day, and it was a dark day for the Dreemurrs.

Not only did Develyn take down both Chara and Flowey, but it came at the expense of Asriel getting seriously injured. If he had to take down both of them again, then he will. But there's always a strange possibility they could be more powerful than before, leaving Develyn in a bit of a pickle.

Develyn watched the daylight brigthen up as the sun rose behind the house. He soon headed in and slept a little bit on the couch. The family would begin to get active an hour later. Toriel was curious as to why Develyn was sleeping on the couch. It could possibly be that he wanted to sleep elsewhere to give Asriel more space.

Develyn soon sat around and ate breakfast with the family while remaining dead silent.
