Alphys just kept crying. Now she had lost TWO important people in the same day. She lost her love, and never even got to confess, as well as the king, who was like a father to her. Well, the king was like a father to everyone. But even despite her having no self-confidence, he noticed her, and made her the ROYAL SCIENTIST nonetheless.

But now that both of them were gone, Alphys had no purpose. That would be, if he hadn't put HER in change. The nerdy weeb scientist who couldn't even participate in a single fight. How could she have been so useless, yet he still saw something in her.

But now, he is dead. They are both dead. Most of the monsters, are dead.

Alphys quieted herself, she stopped trying to heal the already dead king. Huh, how long has she been here, again? Huh... it was all a haze, like a bad dream...

In the background, Alphys could barely hear Sans and Chara fighting. It was so... so quiet. She stared at the king's dead dust, and mumbled, "He didn't look dead when he died... he looked asleep... and he was happy... maybe I should sleep too..." Alphys saw the world rattling... an earthquake...? No, someone was shaking her...

The sound was muffled, "ailpfhys weafke uhfp," the scientist opened her eyes. Huh... didn't know they were closed...

"ALPHYS ALPHYS WAKE UP WE HAVE TO GO NOW!!!" she broke out of her daze... it was a Volcan, the one that first escaped the human to warn her and Undyne... Undyne... It yanked on her arm and tried to pull her to the ladder.

Alphys didn't understand what was going on... why was a Volcan down here? What was happening?

She looked around, just now noticing the fierce battle raging on the other side of the room. Bones were flying everywhere, yet the demon was dodging them... well, most of them. Gaster blasters had also been summoned, and were playing a critical part in the battle. Sans had some sweat rolling down his skull... she could tell they had been going at it for a while.

Alphys obeyed the Volcan, barely dodging a bone that just soared past her head. Her eyes dried up as she lifted up the monster and rushed to the ladder. Thankfully, Sans occupied the human so it was easy to get out of there.

But, Alphys couldn't just flee everything in her life. She sat by the opening that led to the basement, "I hope t-this will w-work..." she mumbled. Alphys prepared some of her magic. She couldn't help fight the battle, but maybe she could heal the one who is.

Alphys concentrated her magic into her hands, which resulted in a yellow aura residing in her palms. She watched Sans dodge and attack the enemy in the distance. She had to time this correctly... If this works, Sans would get more HP and Defense added to his stats. She would work on Attack and Stamina next.

Alphys peered at them. Chara was laughing now, the sound echoing off the walls of the basement. Sans sent out rows of blasters, the light illuminating the room like lightning would during a storm.

"NOW!" Alphys sent out a bolt of magic to the fatigued skeleton. It hit him.

Sans stumbled, then looked at his boney hands. He was surrounded in a yellow aura, like Alphys' hands were just moments ago. The scientist checked his stats, he was gaining HP and Defense! Her magic worked! With Alphys and Sans working together like this, they had a greater chance to win this fight untill Frisk comes back, if she ever will.
