chapter 16: hotlands 3.

Chara pov.
I got to the elevator again. I listen to toriel again. About how she enjoying more than she thought. She never been apart of something like this in years. It was fun. But she also mentions that has  worried feeling when she sees me in danger. That she can't stop her self. She can't figure it out. Anyway I pushed a button and the elevator started moving. I lean against the wall. I'm close. Very close. Once I walk past the core. I will be in judgment hall. Than the throne room is next. Than the barrier. I can use the souls that to destroy it. Hmm. Maybe not. Mostly because if I did. It would drain my soul. And since I'm not strong. It would take all of my determination. I know this because I was a scientist. Did some experiment in my time. So I'm going to need a new way to destroy that barrier. I remember boogie turn into Napstablook and destroy the barrier. But all I got was that tem. Is tem. Really that freak. Metacritic. Heard of that when I ears drop sans. They are like there kid. Nephew or niece. I don't know. Is that why. He didn't kill me when he held me that times. Anyway there nothing much to think of. Let just get this over with. The elevator door open. I walked out as I see carpets. I continue moving until I got to a bakery run by grillby. So these little fire touches are like muffet spiders. I walk up to grillby. Same grillby as always. Grillby: "hello there. Welcome to my bakery. Would you like a touche bistro. Hot burger. Salad of coal" what? Salad? Is there a chocolate syrup or something? I looked around in his selection. Yup. There is a coal salad. Do people eat that? Well. It cheap. I chose the coal salad. Grillby: "thank you for your purchase. All purchases goes to muffet spiders home" that nice. Muffet must be creating homes for all the spiders. Hashtag spider rights! I than continue forwards. I try to call toriel. But all I hear is garbage noises. Is something jamming this? Could grillby fire be keeping the sign from coming in. How?? I thought muffet webs does it. Then why can't i call anyone? I continue moving. As always there are puzzles this way as well. I see a fire moving though a tube. Is that how they get around. I than got to a very hot way. I see a doorway and entered. There alot of smoke and heat. So hot that I can barley breath. Is this. Grillby home? Grillby: "I was told. Of a little tip" grillby? I looked around. Grillby: "that someone. Is thinking of doing something very. Wrong" Than Flames appeared behind me. I started running. Grillby: "that they want to hurt. My employees. Want to. Put out there flame" what? Who would say that? Is it about me? Than a wall of fire appeared infront of me. The fire walls blocked both my way I came from. And the way forwards. Grillby: "I can not allow you to go forwards. It time. To play with fire" he straight up his glasses and ready fire from his hand. I never seen grillby fight before. This will be something.
(❤)
Grillby fire is very hot. Could burn my clothes. Never seen him ever fight. this is going to be interesting. I started and used act. Nothing appeared but check. I chose check.
*grillby. Atk. Def. Made of fire. Nothing  can touch him. Object or weapons*
I can see that. Grillby: "I'm going to have to borrow something of muffet" Than purple liquid started pouring down. This is muffet move! It filled up the whole box around my soul. My soul turn purple. Grillby: "I'm not the type to use others abilities but muffet says if there something that endangers my employees. I can used it" i went over to check. I see shake. Am I stuck or something? I chose shake.
(You try to escape the wall of Flames that holds you. Sadly there none)
He than started sending fire at me. I switch lines to dodge them. He finished attacking. My turn. I chose spare. Nothing else to do. He than send one of those little version of fire but with legs at me. They are really fast but I dodge them. Grillby: "I gave you kindness. Looks like your mask fallen off showing your true self" Than fire started coming on the lines. I jump to another. Than fire started coming on that on. Rows of fire were coming on the stings. I dodge them by going onto the rows that doesn't have fire on them. They come at me really quick. I continue switching lines. He finished attacking. I chose spare. Grillby: "have some of my food" they started throwing coal. I guess coal increases the fire. I looked behind me and see a huge fire oven. The stings are going into it. Which means I need to move! I can feel the stings moving my soul to it. How can I move my soul when I'm stuck? How does it work? Anyway I was able to dodge them. I spared. Grillby: "looks like it time to end this" he than turn into big fire ball with mouth and teeth. He than went to my left and started sucking in the purple lines. I keep moving. Incoming fire on the lines. I switch the lines to avoid them. Than he went under and started muching up. I started moving. It started moving. I than realized that I'm jumping from line to line. With my own feet. I keep jumping and jumping. He getting close that I can feel the heat. I keep jumping. Until it got to the last bit of the lines. It went to eat me. Than a little fire thing went up to It. Grillby: "hm?" It started talking to grillby. Grillby: "hm? You mean to say that it all wrong? That it was a lie to get me to kill them? Well. I'm ashamed" Than he went back to normal. And now. I can stand on the empty space I'm on. Grillby: "I do hope you forgive me" I than spared him
(You won! 0 exp and 1g)
Grillby: "I apologize. Very do. I would never hurt one of my customers. How would you like a 10°/• discount for every purchase. All purchases goes to muffet spiders" the fires all disappeared. I'm never fighting grillby without water. I got to the end. I left the area. I than walked into stage looking place. Than everything went dark as something heavy falls down. The lights turn on. I looked to see my self. In court? Asgore: "court is now in session!" Asgore? Alphy: "the prosecution is ready your honor!" What? "Um. What going on?" Alphy: "silent witness. You will get your turn to speak later" asgore: "um. Maybe we should explain to the witnesse. Because they look confused" toriel: "I shall explain it!" Toriel!? Alphy: "looks like the defense is finally here. Why don't you explain it to our witness. So that they can. Ketchup" I hear laughter. Wait who watching? "Um. What going on?" Toriel: "that what I been wanting to know. I been trying to reach you for the past hour. To let you know your on trail for the murder of of monster! (Which is not true because the monster is still alive)" what? Asgore: "thank you for making it. Now we can get this trail on!" What the hell going on. Alphy: "your honor. For my opening statement. This human here murder a monster in called blood. I have the picture of the victim and the crime scene" a screen appeared and turn on showing me a dead monster with a knife in it chest. Asgore: "what a horrorible look. Very sad to see one of our own is dead" alphy: "that true. And it her fault that it happened! Toriel: "objection!!" Toriel slam on her hands on the table. Toriel: "my client could not have done it!" Alphy hold out there arms and shook there head. Alphy: "looks like I'm going to have to show just how wrong toriel is. Judge I have evidence to submit" asgore was holding a sign that says go toriel but he quickly got rid of it before alphy saw. Alphy: "I'm submitting this knife and autopsy" asgore: "the court accepts these as evidence" ok? So what now? Alphy: "now! I shall call for my witness! The one that saw the body!" I hear the sound of someone gasping. Alphy: "brig them in please!" Asgore: "guar- I mean. Bailiff! Bring in the witness!" I than see the witness. It frisk? Alphy: "state your name and occupation" frisk: "*sigh* name frisk. And I'm your friendly neighbor human girl" alphy: "tell us what you saw" frisk: "fine. Guess I'll go fall a sleep later than" toriel than got my attention. Toriel: "just want you to know. All of this is a show. Everyone was selected just for this trail. Even if I lose. You will be ok" hope so.
*witness testimony*
Frisk: "I was coming from one of my guard stations. I was at the second area in hotland. I decided to get out from. behind of My guard stations. I than see a monster with a knife sticking out of it chest. I just stand there watching the monster until the guard came"
*finished*
Alphy: "is that all?" Frisk: "yeah. It is. Can I go now. Me and mirror there have a date to go too" what!? Toriel: "that cute!" Asgore: "that amazing to hear!" Alphy: "too bad that there is a trial going on. Your date will have to wait" asgore: "hone- I mean. Defense. You may cross examine the witness" toriel: "thank you your honor. Hope you ready frisk" frisk: "yeah just hurry this up. The date is important"
*cross examination*
Frisk: "I was coming from one of my guard station" toriel: "hold it!" Hm? Toriel: "what were you doing at the guard station?" Frisk: "mostly sitting there and selling hot dogs. But I did fell a sleep too" I can hear MK yelling lazy from all the way from snowdin. Toriel: "did you see the monster walk past?" Frisk: "not that I remember. I been asleep for. An hour" toriel: "hmmmmm"
Frisk: "I was at the second area in hotlands" toriel: "hold it!" Hm? Toriel: "do you work at hotlands? This is the first time I know this" frisk: "yeah I just always been at the guard station before going over the bridge of hotlands" toriel: "why did you go to that one?" Frisk: "I have a reason for that. I was running a hotdogs business" toriel: "I could go for some hot dogs right now. Haven't eaten in sometime" asgore: "my goodness. You need to eat! Wouldn't wanted you to overwork your self" frisk: "sure. Next time. I'll save you one"
Frisk: "I decide to get out from behind my guard station" toriel: "hold it!" Hm? Toriel: "what made you want to leave? Didn't you think to stay just incase of anything?" Frisk: "there nothing much to do. I fell a sleep because of being bored. When I woke up. I just left it to go back home" toriel: "nothing else?" Frisk: "let me think" what she thinking of? Frisk: "oh yeah. I lost something and I was looking for it before I was going to head home" toriel: "your honor. I would like that to be added to her testimony" asgore: "very well. Please test about what you lost" frisk: "yeah yeah. I want to hurry this up. That date is important" why is she so interested in that date. Does she. Love me!?! Frisk. I could make love hearts in my eyes right now.
Frisk: "while I was about to leave. I saw that something of mine was gone" toriel: "hold it!" Hm? Toriel: "what is this something of yours that you were looking for ?" She started thinking. Frisk: "a knife. Yeah a knife. I used it cut onions and a fire to cook it. When I went to grab it. It wasn't there" wait. That knife. The murder weapon?
Toriel: "hmmm. This feels. Like it not going to be long. Or short at the same time" toriel looked at me. Toriel: "what do you think child?" Is mom asking for my idea? "Wel-" toriel: "maybe I shouldn't let you think since your in the defendant seats. Don't worry! You are not guilty!" Than back to frisk.
Frisk: "I than see a monster with a knife in it chest" toriel: "may you resay what you said before?" Frisk: "while I was about to leave. I saw something of mine gone"
Toriel: "objection!!!" Hm? Toriel: "you said that you were looking for something of yours. Right?" Frisk: "yes" toriel: "is this. The knife you were looking for?" Frisk: "yeah. That my knife. And it was. In the monster chest. Was it" toriel: "yes. It was" asgore: :good golly!" Good golly? Still stuck in the old saying right dad. Alphy: "what!? Your knife was the one that killed the monster!!!" Frisk: "right. I see now" alphy: "that means. Your the killer!?!" I hear the talk of the room. So. I'm a not the one that did it. Toriel: "yes. That would be the case. But" but? Asgore: "but?" Alphy: "but?" Frisk: "please tell me you didn't say but mirror" I did. Toriel: "there was something on my mind since the trial started. In this autopsy report. It says stab in the chest. Killed in a single hit" alphy: "yes and we found the true murder" toriel: "objection!!" Hm? Toriel: "killed in a single hit" Than she slam on the table. Toriel: "when monster die. They turn to dust. But this one. Is still alive!!!" Than alphy made a damage look. Alphy: "what!?!?" I hear alot of talk. Than asgore slam down his gavel. Asgore: "order! Order in court! Your right! We do turn to dust!" Alphy: "how could I have not figure out!" Alphy made a angry look like they just got Bamboozled. Asgore: "what could all this mean???" Toriel: "mean one thing gorey! That this was a set up!!!" I  thought this was a set up? Why is everyone serious? Toriel: "which means that the victim is still alive! They planted this knife to frame the children's!" Alphy: "that! Sound about right!" Asgore: "hmmm. You maybe right. But what would there motive be?" Asgore: "motive....well" she smiled and rubs the back of her head. Toriel: "maybe if we think about it. Then we will come up with the answer?" Alphy: "objection!" Hm? Alphy: "if your trying to steer this trial around with your foolish reason for a foolish idea to a foolish little girl. That trying to fool me. Than it may have worked. But I know you know the answer!" I looked to toriel who had a sweat look on her face. Toriel: "you know how to make my mind bad you know that" she than went to thinking. I grab my phone. I see a incoming text from frisk. It says.
Frisk text: "welcome to the underground. Are you here to stay?" I chuckled. We than started texting eachother while the trial went on. Toriel: "maybe we would ask the monster it self. Your honor. I say we ask this monster a few question. I would like to call this monster. yanderplane!" Wait what? It was a plane!? Them!?!? They were battles I was avoiding! I don't want to be interested in a plane! Asgore: "alphy? Would you agree?" Alphy: "no objections your honor" asgore: "alright. Please being in yanderplane!" Than the plane appeared in the witness stand. Alphy: "your name and occupation witness" plane: "you already know my name! What else!" Than they saw me. Plane; "you!! You!!" Asgore: "um. Why is the witness pointing at my wife?" Toriel: "ex wife. And what did I do?" Plane: "no! You! The green jersey girl! My true love!!" What!? Asgore: "w-what!?!?" Alphy: "oh great" asgore: "would the witness please don't say that in court or distracted the defendant" plane: "it was love at first sight! How could you stab me!" What??? But. Where did I again stab you??? Alphy than slam down on the table with her arm. Alphy: "witness! Yoy will test to the court of the time of the attack!" Plane: "fine! I will!" Asgore: "please tell us!"
*witness testimony*
Plane: "I was flying though the air like everyday. But I felt too high so I lower my self down to the ground. I than was hovering until I hear someone walking from behind me. I looked to see her raising a knife to the air! It then stab me. I saw them into the 2 area elevator before I blacked out"
*witness testimony end*
Asgore: "what a scary thought. Getting attacked out of no where" alphy: "as you can see. The witness even saw the girl with it window eyes. Even I know that can't be made up. You may as well just give up toriel" toriel: "hmmmmm" I wasn't listening. Just texting frisk. Asgore: "you may begin the cross examination" toriel: "*thinking* I think I may have already figured it out"
*cross examination*
Plane: "I was flying though the air like everyday"
Plane: "But I felt too high so I lower myself down"
Plane: "I than was hovering over the ground"
Plane: "I than could hear someone coming from behind me"
Plane: "I turn around see the knife raise in the air!"
Plane: "it than stab me!"
Plane: "I than saw them into the area 2 elevator before I blacked out" toriel: "hold it!" Hm? Toriel: "are you sure that was the are 2 elevator. And not any other elevator?" Plane: "yes! I am 100•\•!" Toriel: "*thinking* something about that doesn't make sense. Should I raise a objection?"
(Objection or leave it be)
(Objection)
Toriel: "objection! Miss plane. You said you saw my client enter the area 2 elevator right?" Plane: "yes what of it?" Toriel: "I believe that isn't right?" Plane: "what!?" Alphy: "and what does that mean toriel?" Toriel: "it means that what she said. Doesn't add up from we know" asgore: "and what doesn't add up if I may ask?" Toriel: "*thinking* hmmmm. It on the tip of my tongue. What is it that doesn't add up?"
(The elevator)
(The number)
(The place)
(The number!)
Toriel: "it the number 2" alphy: "what wrong with it?" Toriel: "well. If you think about it. Doesn't the number 2 always means second place?" Alphy: "coming from the one that created the elevator and name the floors?" Toriel: "oh right" asgore: "I'm sorry. But I'm going to have to penalised you for that" toriel: "*thinking* yeah. I know. But even now. It still on the tip of my tongue. What is it that doesn't add up?"
(The elevator)
(The number)
(The number)
(The elevator!)
Toriel: "it would be the elevator your honor" asgore: "the elevator?" Plane: "how can I be wrong? Everyone use it everyday!" Toriel: "because it doesn't add up to this"
(Out of order sign!)
Toriel: "this sign was on the elevator. At the first area near my lab. Alphy did something to the elevator system making it unable to be used. The only ones that can be used was the one leading to the one floors" asgore: "what does that explain?" Toriel: "there would be no way that my client can use the elevator. When it was out of order!!!" Plane: "ahhhhh!!!" Asgore: "that is true!!" Alphy: "objection!!" Hm? Alphy: "you forgotten that frisk was there. Which means that she must have used the elevator to get to the guard station. If your saying it out of order. How do you explain that!" Toriel: "objection!!" Hm? Toriel: "that is true but I have another evidence to back up my claim" alphy: "!" Asgore: "you do?" Toriel: "yes. I'll show you the evidence that shows my client did not do it!"
(security footage!)
Toriel: "take a look at this footages for a second. Do you see the human?" Asgore: "hmmm. Yes I do. They are walking to a elevator?" Alphy: "so you prove that it was the girl after all. How dry of you toriel" toriel: "objection!" Hm? Toriel: "actually. It is on top of the elevator that you must look at" what going on? Asgore: "hm. It shows. A fours. Wait. You mean!!" Toriel nodded. Toriel: "I do. This show. My client wasn't even there!!" Plane: "gah!!!" Alphy: "gah! No! It can't be true!" Toriel: "miss plane. You have faked the murder! To make someone that wasn't there guilty! Because they didn't love you back!!" Plane: "no! No! Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooòooooooooooooooooooooòooooooooooooo!!!!!!!"
Then she explode!?
*5 minutes later*
Asgore: "where is miss plane?" Alphy: "she in a medical bed. Probably for hitting the ground to hard" asgore: "well. Looks like the defense has proven that it was all faked. That it was someone else fault. We are very sorry for thinking you did it child" wait. Is it over? Asgore: "I shall declare my verdict. Chara. I here by declare.....

NOT GUILTY

*fire balls launch into the air and explode*

Player: "ok done. I'm going to sleep. Bye. Whoever said that. Later!!"
