Alex was inside a home with a staircase, a few rooms, and other things.

Flowey: Alright, Alex. All you gotta do is go down those stairs and open the door there.

Alex: Ok, just one question. What's so bad about Toriel?

As Alex said this he smelled something good. He snuck into the area it came from.

Flowey: Once she was easily overthrown as Queen, The new one took her eyesight. So, she figured out how to use her ears...

Alex had walked into a kitchen area. The smell had intoxicated him.

Flowey: Eventually, due to all the amalgams being created, She gave out food to them. Once she ran out, she started doing things that would make the old her want to kill herself.

Alex opened the oven in the kitchen, Only to be sickened beyond relief.

Flowey: She started using Humans to feed monsters.

He saw a pie that had been stuffed with entrails, eyes, and some chunks of brain matter. Alex put his hand over his mouth and started to run.

Flowey: What are you doing! She uses hearing! If you run she'll-

Alex bumped into something before looking up.

Flowey: Find You.

Alex looked to see the Goat woman above her, a scar of a clean knife slit sat on her eyes.

Toriel: Ah... Hello, Child. I see you've found my humble abode. Let me guide you to your resting area.

Alex: No!

As if Alex was Flowey, A "Friendliness Pellet" Shot from his hand and hit Toriel in her face. Alex took the opportunity to run. Toriel, enraged, Set fire to everything in the area. The Kitchen, The Living Room, everything. Alex by this time was already downstairs. Toriel heard him the whole way and blasted fire everywhere as she pursued him.

Alex: Get away from me you- You Witch!

Alex shot multiple bullets from his hands to Toriel, They slowed her but didn't stop her.

He could see the door clear as day from his sight but it was boarded up. Alex still kept running from Toriel and to the door. Once he reached it, he was standing in front of Toriel who had stopped.

Toriel: Please Understand Child, I'm the Caretaker of these Ruins.

Alex: You're not! Maybe you were before but not now! You- You're a Witch! A Witch who bakes poor innocent kids into pies! You are the Witch of These Ruins!

Toriel was getting angry to say the least. A blast of fire came from her to attack Alex but, he moved away in time. The boards on the door burned away as Alex got out and used a nearby stick to block the exit.

Toriel: LET ME TAKE CARE YOU, CHILD!

She banged on the door, trying to break it down, but somehow the stick was taking it all. Her screams filled the area as the fire she set everywhere began to reach her. The fires burned her fur as Alex had to watch and hear with Flowey.

Flowey: Alex... Please go. I can't watch this.

Alex: Yeah... Me too.

Alex walked away as he heard the building behind him explode in flames. In the flames, multiple voices echoed in his mid, making him turn around.

???  #1: We are Free!

??? #2: Thank You, Alex!

??? #3: Our Souls have been Freed

The voices were coming from souls flying out from the flames.

Flowey: You- You did a good thing. You saved all those souls. And I know Toriel wouldn't want to live like that forever. She would've wanted this.

Alex: If only it was that. If only it was less... Gruesome. I just hope she's in a better place.

Alex walked away from the ruins as his footsteps faded from the snow.
