I'm guessing you already know about that time I apeared with Frisk, alive, correct? Well, Frisk wasn't themself at that time. Instead with us, watching us, was someone we called the PLAYER.... even now they could be watching us..
You as a flower, and me being alive were just bickering when 'Frisk´ suddenlly bumped into mom as they were trying to leave. Toriel hadn't noticed us yet and kneeled down made sure the child wasn't hurt "Oh dear, are you alright little one? I'm sorry, I didn't see you there..." She paused as she took a glance behind Frisk and finally saw her dead child talking to a flower, that somehow had a face. Her hands dropped as she stared at us with a haunted expression. How are they alive? Is that really Chara? Why are they laughing at that flower? These questions seemed to go through Toriel's mind as she slowly started tearing up, still shocked. Frisk poked her on the shoulder with their stick, but Toriel ignored them as she would then get up to walk up to me.
She asked with a soft voice "I-is it really you, my child...?". You looked at me and her back and fourth, not being able to say anything in the tension that filled the room. While I thought of what to say, my eyes teared up. I stood up and hugged her "Yeah I-It's me... heh, I missed you mom" It felt so good to finally be able to just hug her now. After just being able to see her, thinking I might've never been able to do this again, it warmed my heart. Something I had once lost... I wasn't even sure if it was really mine, but that didn't matter at the moment.
After a few seconds Toriel hugged back. I could feel her fur on my face, she was so fluffy! *coughs* Anyway, she then held me by the shoulders and took a better look at me and asked "How are you alive..? I'm happy that you're home now, but this is all quite overwhelming...". She glanced over at Frisk, and I followed her look. They had been staring at the passageway into the ruins since Toriel approached me. Maybe they were shocked too, but about what?
Suddenly, they eerily turn to look at us as we were looking at them, with their never changing poker face. I hear a familliar sound, and Toriel suddenly standing up infront of Frisk. It looked like they were in.. a fight..?
"Toriel is standing there in confusion, we all are" I told Frisk as an efficient narrator for them, as always. Their soul hovered above the fight option, I approach them. Only we could see the buttons, besides certain others. "What are you doing? Can you hear me?" I wave my hand over their eyes. They choose fight and held their stick up, about to attack Toriel. I tackle them, now that I can. I then grab their soul before it could go back in their body. Why didn't I do that sooner? Not sure.
Frisk opens their eyes and gasps, then smiles at me, "Hah, thanks.. that actually would've gone badly-" they try standing, and I help them. The fight stopped and Toriel walked up closer to us. "I should bring you children home, you seem like you need food and rest after falling" It was like she was trying to divert our attention from whatever we had going on. We both agree, and the two went ahead while I pat your head before following. You seemed to be annoyed by that, but don't say anything and left, popping back down underground.
We arrive home, on the way we grabbed a donut, faded ribbon, and toy knife. And ofcourse, Frisk kept the stick. In my room that we now share, they sat on the bed, and I sat beside them. We observed their soul for awhile, it was slightly trying to move. We had no idea why. Frisk leaned their head on my shoulder, "How do you think we can get through here without it?". I respond "Maybe I could force it to choose mercy" with a chuckle. Frisk chuckled too "What about your soul? It's not gonna turn you into something like me is it?" they were joking, obviously. "Hey it's not your fault somone's controllong your soul alright?" Frisk slightly nods, "And as long as I'm with you, I'm sure it wont even dare" I say smirking. They ask "Where did you get it anyway? I thought you were gonna get determination?". I gave Frisk a look of dissapointment, "Don't you remember that soul from True Lab? This is that soul" I place my other hand over my chest.
Frisk then held my other hand. Their hand felt rough and bruised, probably from the stick and the fall. I held their hand too and they said "Thanks Chara, for everything.. without you I would still be trapped-". I just smile "And I would still be dead and lonely without ya! Ahaha!" I hug Frisk, and they hug back. Took a couple of seconds before it broke out, but I couldn't just unhug immediately.
Toriel called us for Lunch, so we decide to trap Frisk's soul in the toy box for now. It should be fine to keep it out of them for a while..
Me and Frisk sit beside eachother while Toriel sets down the food. Surprisingly it was actual meals, not sweets or pies. We eat up, and the food heals us little by litte. Being monster food.
After we finished I helped mom wash the dishes while Frisk went back to our room to sleep. It was silent while we did, but then she speaks up, "My child.. could I be enlightened as to what happened back there? With... Frisk, was it?" she was hesitant to ask at lunch, so she did now. I thought of it for a while, and respond. "Umm... let's talk about it with them. I'm sure they'll be willing to talk about it with you" I smile at her as I finish washing the dishes. As I was about to leave, she stops me "Child.. I know a lot must be happening but... do you two plan on leaving?" It was almost like she could predict it, like a faint memory. I was worried.. I didn't want her to think we'd leave her alone so soon, but I smile at her and say "We will... but don't worry, we have eachother!" and I proceed to go to our room.
About two hours pass and Frisk wakes up while I had stayed up sitting on the bed. They sit up and ask "did you even sleep?" I reply with a headshake. I then make them get out of bed and stand up to walk with me. "We have to explain a lot of stuff to mom, and you have to help me with it". They sigh and say ok, so we went to where Toriel was sitting as she was reading a book. I tell her me and Frisk were ready to explain, and she puts down the book to listen.
~~~· It is now 6:00 am ·~~~
Chara: aand, that's it for now. Since Frisk has to do something, I'll have to call mom for help since it's the weekend
Asriel: All that doesn't really explain anything yet y'know-
Chara: Get some sleep. You're still working tonight
Asriel: Alright alright *he goes out the room and to his bedroom*
Chara: *sighs* This'll be a long day...
