Determined Love (Charisk)

Chapter 6: Leaving Snowdin

Frisk and Chara walk to the edge of town after spending the morning together, deciding that they made Papyrus wait long enough. They walked forward, and it started to get super foggy, so much so that they could barely see each other. Frisk grabbed Chara's hand so she wouldn't lose her in the fog.

"HUMANS.." They heard a voice in the distance. The fog dissipated. "YOU'RE FINALLY HERE!! I THOUGHT YOU'D NEVER SHOW!!"
"Sorry for keeping you waiting Papyrus!" Frisk apologized.
Papyrus noticed the two holding hands. "AH. I SEE, YOU TWO WERE HAVING A DATE?"
Chara blushed, Frisk nodded. While, he wasn't right, he wasn't technically wrong either.
"NYEH HEH HEH! THE GREAT PAPYRUS ALWAYS KNOWS!!" He struck a pose. "C-CAN WE BATTLE NOW? I HAVE TO CAPTURE YOU!"
Frisk smiled, "Yeah! Let's go!"
A battle sequence started.
Frisk and Chara both selected MERCY.
"SO, YOU WON'T FIGHT? GUESS I'LL JUST HAVE TO USE MY BLUE ATTACK!"
"Frisk? Was does a blue attack mean?"
"Whenever you see a blue bone, don't move, and you'll be fine!"
"Alright Frisk!"
Papyrus launched a barrage of blue bones at Frisk and Chara, but they knew not to move to avoid taking damage. It took a lot of willpower not to try to move out of their way, but they let the bones pass right through them. It was a strange sensation, like water flowing over you, without getting wet.
Their SOULS reacted to the blue attack... They turned blue! Frisk and Chara could feel an immense weight pulling them down. They could only jump, and fall back down.
"What the?" Chara said.
"YOU'RE BLUE NOW! THAT'S MY ATTACK." Papyrus laughed lightheartedly.
The battle continued on. Papyrus would launch various bone themed attacks that Chara and Frisk had to time to jump over correctly without getting hit. The two were doing a amazing job at not getting hit. Papyrus would continue to rub random substances in the back of his skull that disappeared the instant he put them there.
*Papyrus realizes he doesn't have ears*
Chara and Frisk giggled at Papyrus' silliness. They continued to dodge more attacks and had a little fun with it, playing chicken with the bone attacks. Chara was normally braver than Frisk and would stay until the last possible second before she'd jump.
"ALRIGHT YOU TWO! TIME TO SHOW YOU MY SPECIAL ATTACK!! NYEH HEH HEH, TAKE THIS!" Papyrus seemed like he was having just as good as a time as the girls, that is, until he saw an annoying dog chewing a bone. "HEY!! LET GO OF MY SPECIAL ATTACK!"
The dog got up and ran away. Chara and Frisk couldn't help but laugh.
*SIGH* "I GUESS I'LL JUST HAVE TO USE A REALLY COOL REGULAR ATTACK." He launched a bunch of bones in random patterns. It was pretty cool.
At the end of the long string of bones was a message... in bones: *SANS AND PAPYRUS, BEST AND COOLEST BROS FOR EVER AND EVER!*
Frisk was a little surprised. Last run, it was a giant line of bones, with a bone on a skateboard last, but she thought this was much cooler. "Papyrus, this is amazing!" Frisk said.
"NYEH HEH HEH! YOU REALLY THINK SO?" Papyrus looked overjoyed.
"Yeah, this is incredible!" Chara yelled.
"WOWIE! I NEVER KNEW HUMANS COULD BE SO NICE! I WILL SPARE YOU HUMANS, NOW IS YOUR CHANCE TO ACCEPT MY MERCY!!" Papyrus was done with fighting the two, in fact, he secretly wanted to be friends with them.
Chara and Frisk hit the MERCY option together, and the battle ended.

"HUMANS, YOU ARE REALLY AWESOME! WORTHY OF BEING FRIENDS WITH THE GREAT.... NO, I CAN'T! I CAN'T BE FRIENDS WITH YOU TWO, I HAVE TO CAPTURE YOU!" Papyrus looked sad. "WHAT WILL UNDYNE THINK WHEN SHE SEES I COULDN'T EVEN CAPTURE TWO MEASLY HUMANS..."
"Why don't we just be friends instead Papyrus!" Frisk said.
"Yeah, you are really cool, just like Sans told us!" Chara said.
"WOWIE! YOU REALLY MEAN IT?" Papyrus looked happy again. "NYEH HEH HEH! THEN I, THE GREAT PAPYRUS, WILL ACCEPT YOUR FRIENDSHIP WITH OPEN ARMS!" He swung his arms open, the girls ran into him, giving him a big hug.
"WELL! I GUESS YOU TWO WOULD LIKE DIRECTIONS ON HOW TO GET HOME?" Papyrus asked, getting up from the hug.
"No thank you Papyrus! I think I've got it covered from here!" Frisk said.
"YOU KNOW ABOUT THE CORE, AND ASGORE?" (Ha! Rhymes!) Papyrus asked, suspiciously.
"Um, yeah!" Chara stepped in. "Sans actually told us!" She lied, but she didn't wanting Papyrus to get suspicious of them.
"MY LAZY BROTHER ACTUALLY HELPED YOU? WOWIE! I MUST BE RUBBING OFF ON HIM! NYEH HEH HEH!!" Papyrus laughed again.
"Anyways, we'll be heading off now, Papyrus, Chara and I have a lot ahead of us!" Frisk gave Papyrus her phone number and said her goodbyes. Chara did the same.
"BYE HUMANS! VISIT US ANYTIME YOU'D LIKE!" Papyrus waved to the two, then ran off back to Snowdin.
     Frisk and Chara walked together towards the Waterfall. They noticed a think line where the snow ended, and the Waterfall area began.
     After a short walk through a cavern leading to the actual Waterfall area, they saw.. Sans?
     "Sans!" Frisk ran over to him.
     "heh. hey kiddo. betcha didn't expect me working two jobs eh?" He chuckled.
     "You're too lazy to work two jobs though..." Chara rolled her eyes.
     "twice as many jobs, means twice as many legally required breaks. speaking of which, i'm thinking of taking one now, how about you two head over to grillby's with me?"
     Frisk nodded. Chara was more reluctant.
     "Frisk, shouldn't we get going?"
     "Come on, Chara! Let's go get some food, I'm starving, aren't you?"
     "Yeah. I guess." Chara looked at Sans. He didn't seem to be mad at her like he was awhile back. "Let's go."
     "Thank you, Chara."
     Sans smiled. "well kiddos, i guess i'll have to let you drag me away from my job here. come on, i know a shortcut."
     They were at the front of Grillby's in less than 10 seconds. Frisk and Chara were well aware of Sans' shortcuts and weren't surprised, but it was still a strange feeling.
Everyone saw Sans and greeted him instantly.
"Weren't you here for breakfast?" A duck like monster asked.
"nah. i haven't eaten for atleast half an hour. you're thinking of brunch." People laughed. Neither Frisk or Chara found it funny.
The trio sat down at the bar. "whadaya want kiddos?"
"Do they have any chocolate?" Chara asked.
"........I melted it all...... Sorry." Grillbz replied.
Chara sighed. "I'll take a burger then."
Frisk smiled,"Me too!"
"ill take what the kids are havin'" Sans said.
Grillbz walked off.
"hey you two. i've gotta question for ya."
Frisk and Chara say silent, time seemed to stop around them.
"have either of you ever heard of a talking flower?
Frisk nodded. "Yeah, I know about it."
Chara shook her head, she had yet to know about Flowey, Frisk hadn't told her.
"yeah. the echo flower, people can say something to it, and they'll repeat it. anyway, papyrus said there was a flower that spoke friendly words to him, such as encouragement. i think someone is playing a prank on him. just watch yourselves."
Frisk smiled, she knew what Sans meant. "Of course Sans, I'll be careful."
"Yeah.. Uh me too?" Chara said.
Time seemed to flow normally again. Grillbz brought out the burgers.
"thanks. you kids want any ketchup?"
Both shook their heads and began to eat. "fine, more for me." He drank straight from the bottle.
After their lunch, they walked out together. Frisk let Chara walk ahead a little bit before grabbing Sans hand and getting his attention.
"I know what you meant Sans." Frisk smiled, and let go of his hand.
"figured you would kid. just be careful, protect her too." Sans' grin grew a little.
"Sans! I'm so happy you are warming up to her!" She hugged him.
"not saying i am, kid. but i just want you to be happy."
"See you later Sans."
"see ya." Sans took a shortcut away.
Frisk jogged and caught up to Chara. Hugging her from behind.
"Thanks for going to lunch with Sans! It means a lot to him, even if he doesn't say." Frisk smiled.
"No problem, Frisk." Chara blushed as Frisk kissed her on the cheek and let go of the hug.
"Let's get going!" Chara grabbed Frisk's hand and started running towards the Waterfall.

*Excitement for the next part of your journey, fills you both with DETERMINATION*
