Frisk awoke on a bed of yellow flowers. Just how they remembered it. Except...another figure laid beside Frisk, still knocked out. Frisk jumped up, staring at the sleeping body. Why had Chara come with them? How had Chara come with them? And where did that locket around their(Chara's) neck come from...?

Frisk waited to see if Chara would wake up. Perhaps this was just some kind of glitch...? Sure enough, Chara's eyes, no longer black and, well, eyeless, soon opened. They soon sat up, rubbing their head and looking rather confused. They soon focused their attention on Frisk. "Hiya." Frisk said cooly. Chara screamed.

"Wh-where am I?! Why does this look so much like the-"

"Ruins? 'Cause I reset. Not sure why you're here though."

Chara stared at Frisk, then tackled them to the ground. "What's going on?! Why is this happening?!"

Frisk shrugged and couldn't help but smile a little. "I dunno, lol."

Chara groaned, letting go of them. "You're even worse than that comedian..."

"Guess we're gonna have to go through this timeline together."

"Together? Yeah, right. You do it your way, I do it mine." Chara held their hand up as if they were holding something. "Wh-Where's my-"

"Looking for this?" Frisk said, holding up a knife, "I confiscated this from you when you were napping. You sure are a heavy sleeper." Chara reached for the knife, but Frisk pulled it out of their grasp. "D'aww, does the baby want their knife back?

Chara growled, pounding the ground with their fists. Frisk giggled, then stood and began to walk the path out of the ruins. Chara thought of no other choice but to follow. They walked into the room where they would've met Flowey, except Flowey wasn't there.

"Where's Asriel?" Frisk asked, stopping in the room.

Chara walked right past the spot where Flowey would've been, "You really think that Flowey will show his face after you killed him in the last run? He doesn't want to risk getting on your bad side aga-" Chara's words were cut off as they ran into a large and fluffy figure.

"Oh, excuse me," Toriel said as Chara stumbled backward, "I was doing my normal walk through the ruins looking for any humans that might've fallen down when I thought I heard two voices. I believe those voices were you two?"

Chara just stared up at Toriel in shock. "M-Mom...?"

Toriel's eyes widened. "O-oh my... You couldn't be...?"

"Oooo, we should've been prepared for this..." Frisk said, rubbing the back of their head. They stepped up to Chara and Toriel, "Um, Toriel? Chara and I have a lot of explaining to do..."

"Chara..." Toriel put a paw on Chara's cheek, "But I thought you were..."

"M-Mom..." Chara hugged Toriel.

"D'aww, I wish I had a camera to capture this beautiful moment!" Frisk said, gushing over the reunion.

Toriel soon led them through the Ruins -- Chara staying silent and holding her hand throughout the entire segment-- then told them to stay put in a certain area as she went to get supplies for a pie. Of course, she didn't say that specifically, but Frisk and Chara already knew how this all went.

As Toriel left them alone, Frisk took the moment to consult Chara. "So, you still wanna kill everyone?"

Chara didn't respond, looking down at the locket around their neck. "This isn't right... I shouldn't be here, I shouldn't have feelings... I shouldn't be so happy to see her..."
