Chara and her skeletal companion followed the dog into a cave. The place was magnificent: everything was shining, from the flowers to the mushrooms and the trees, and there was a large waterfall to further embellish the shades of blue in the cave.

- This place is fantastic. Chara whispered, as if speaking louder would destroy the serenity of the scene. Where are we ?
- Waterfall. Sans replied simply, amused by his joy. Did it become your furvorite pawlace in the Underground ?
- Yes, it's so beautiful, especially this waterfall that looks endless. they answered, bending down to touch the water. Where does this water come from, I know there is no source in the Underground, so how ?
- The legend meows that they are tears. Sans whispered enigmatically.
- Tears ? répéta Chara, curieux. Whose tears ?
- Yours.

Chara stared intensely at the water as they continued to run their hand through it; they knew they should have been uncomfortable with this sudden revelation, but they were still calm. It wasn't bittersweet, the water was still beautiful and pure in their eyes.
Maybe that made this waterfall more than just a mirror, but Chara liked the reflection they saw in it; they were a brave teenager who had managed to defeat those who had wished them harm, and it wasn't a few tears that was going to make them lose hope, especially considering how much they cried like a baby on a regular basis anyway. This place was quiet, a kind of inner peace, and nothing would take away its beauty.

- Ha, I guess that must be true. Chara replied with a sweet smile on their face. I'm known to cry a river.
- Wow, I really did not think you would take it as well as you just did. Sans breathed out, pleasantly surprised. Maybe you really are ready to dethrone the red rulepurr aftepurr all.
- Well, thank you for believing in me. they said, rolling their eyes affectionately. I should turn you into a wall decoration.
- But then who would guide you in the Underground ? asked the skeletal cat with a fake pout.
- This little angelic dog does this job much better than you. Chara reminded, smiling cheekily.
- Haa, I'm so sad to hear you meow that ! Sans sighed, adding a dramatic pose to his tone. You really are heartless !
- Come on fake guide, tell me about Waterfall, I've never seen this place before. Chara offered, still curious.
- Well, it's always been there, a little haven for those who love the sound of water and rain. Sans told them in a soft purr. You were just too busy living in your furmiliar catcoon to discofur its wonders.
- Well, I'm here now. they said with a light smile like a small pink cloud. And I do have to admit it, you really are right, this place is much nicer than I could have ever imagined.

Still following the course of the little angel, they arrived at a field of these sparkling blue flowers. Chara smiles; the little dog walked through the flowers, so they could go pick a few and keep them as a souvenir, they had always loved plants and those made them feel like a duck to water. They were in their element here - which was kind of funny since their star sign is Pisces - and they just wanted to enjoy this wonderful place for as long as they could.
But as they approached the flowers, Sans dug his claws deep into their skin, just as painful as was a stake to the heart, and jumped out of their arms to float beside them.
