"Well, I'm bored, who wants to explore?" Willow asked her friends. Azia, Rae, and a few others nodded their heads up and down excitedly while Owl, Convela, and the rest frowned and shook their heads.

"You heard what Toriel said," Convela told Willow. "We have to wait here," she emphasized the words like one would to a little kid. Willow scoffed.

"Well I am not just going to sit around and wait for goat mom to come back," she said, determined. "Who's with me?" Half of the girls cheered while the other half sighed.

When they walked into the next room they saw two directions and a monster waiting for them. Angel slowly approached the monster, a froggit. Suddenly it ribbited, and then it started to talk to her.

"Excuse me human. I some advice for you about monsters. If you ACT a certain way or FIGHT until you almost defeat them... They might not want to battle you anymore. If a monster doesn't want to fight you, please... Use some MERCY, human."

Then it ribbited again. Angel looked around and saw no one was around her. She looked around nervously, before they came out of the door in front of her, and she sighed. Azia came out last with two hands full of candy.

"Azia! You don't need that much sweets!" Convela exclaimed, annoyed.

"Well, when you ship someone with multiple people, you need all the fuel you can get," Azia said calmly, putting all the candy in her pockets.

"Well, if you have that much candy, give Angel some," Convela sighs, motioning to Angel, who just looked plain confused.

"Fine, whatever, let's go!" Lissy spoke quickly as they all began to continue on, walking deeper into the RUINS. Almost immediately the girls were faced with a puzzle.

They all walked forward and fell down into a bed of red leaves. "Ow! Why did we fall again!" Rae complained as the girls walked into a doorway on the right. They ended up on the other side of the unstable floor.

Convela took a quick glance back before they continued on. Not even two seconds after one of the girls' phones were ringing. It was Toriel.

"Should I pick it up?" Owl questioned, staring at her phone.

"Sure, why not?" Phebs responded, surveying the next room. Owl gave a small nod before answering it and putting it on speaker phone.

"For no reason in particular, which do you prefer?" Toriel asked before Owl could even say hi. "Cinnamon or Butterscotch?"

There were a chores of mixed answers but Toriel ended up hearing them say butterscotch. "Oh I see, thank you very much." She hung up.

"That's kind of rude...." Pix muttered. "She didn't even say goodbye."

"Whatever," Rose flippantly said. "There's another puzzle up ahead."

The girls all walked forward taking a closer expectation of the new puzzle. It looked pretty simple. All they had to do was push the rock onto the button and the spikes went down. Without looking back they all quickly rushed into the next room.

Suddenly another one of their phones rang again. Toriel was calling. Convela picked it up, putting it one speaker phone so the others could hear.

"Hello? You do not have any allergies do you?" Toriel asked.

"Why are you asking?" Angel questioned into the phone.

"Huh? Why am I asking? No reason...no reason at all." Then, she hung up before they could giver her an answer for her question before.
