Above Undertale {Charisk Involved}

The Unexpected Thief! (Chap 25)

Frisk POV

I dashed inside with Chara and looked around the main room, but nothing was there so we ran upstairs, knowing that's where Goat-Mom last was.

We ran into her room room to see her sobbing on the ground and we went to each side of her for comfort. A few minutes later, she told us what happened.

"W-well, I was just in here, my room, relaxing. getting ready to head out to the dining hall for lunch. When out of nowhere there was a break in the window and a flash of bright white in my eyes. At the time, I had not noticed that my pearl necklace given to me by a long since gone friend had gone missing from around my neck." She explained every detail.

We heard some voices out in the hall and we went to investigate, everyone was out of their rooms, and were arguing with each other. Knowing it was impossible to communicate in this state, Chara raised their voice, "BE QUIET!!!" The hall had calmed down. "Whats with this commotion?"

Everyone tried speaking at once and Chara calmed everyone down again "ONE AT A TIME PLEASE!"

Chara POV

...

The room had gone quiet. And Undyne was the first to speak. "Sorry about that, but some punk took my spear!"

"And my Spaghetti plate!" Papyrus called.

"My slippers" Sans said.

"M-My, Mew Mew Kissie Cutie 2 action figure." Alphys stuttered.

Everyone had something missing. I then remembered we had yet to check our room! "We will be right back guys!" I grabbed Frisk's hand and we started looking around our room. "My Chocolate is missing!"

"My diary is too!" Frisk stated. They have a diary? I'm going to have to investigate that later.

We ran back out into the hall. "We are also missing some of our important items, someone must have stolen the items. Now seeing as everyone is missing something we MAY be able to rule you out, however you could just not have brought the item as we are on a trip. Everyone I presume was in their rooms except, Me, Frisk, Sans, And Papyrus at the time of the first item being stolen?" everyone nodded their heads.

"hmmm, what is there that we can do..." I said aloud.

"W-well we could check the security cameras!" Alphys proclaimed.

That's right there was a camera in the corner of the hall that could see all of the doors! We ran down stairs and asked Snowdrake, unfortunately he said that a snowstorm the day before had messed up the cameras wiring.

We headed upstairs, and told everyone not to worry, It was clear that me and Frisk were in charge of the investigation. We told everyone to go downstairs and not start anything, just rest in the dining hall.

We first started in Queen-Mom's room, and had seen that indeed the glass in the window was broken, yet... there was no glass on the floor.

"Maybe the cleaners cleared it out?" Frisk said.

"No... they couldn't have in the short time." I looked down the window and saw glass sparkling down below "they must have escaped through here. So Toriel was actually the last person to be stolen from. Frisk go check the other rooms for a forced entry." They ran out as I inspected the glass more. I saw a tuft of fur on the glass and pulled at it, It was course unlike Toriel's soft fur.

I knew Asriel had tougher fur so I ran downstairs and asked if I could compare them. He complied, they were near identical, however his fur was a little longer that what was on the glass. Any dogs of the royal guard could have, but that's the thing they were part of the royal guard why would they steal? My mind was blanking and I couldn't figure it out...

I ran upstairs and saw Frisk Motion me over to Undyne's room. The vent in the back of the room behind a cabinet had been forced open. It was small, so we couldn't investigate much further, but we assumed that that's where the perpetrator had entered.

We left to the dining hall to think about who could have fit through such a small hole. Or if we could somehow see down into there.

MTT was there discussing the issue with Alphys. I came up with an idea. "Alphys!" I called out to her.

"O-Oh Chara what is it?" She asked nervously.

"We need your help, can you build a small robot that can view down ventilation pipes?"

"Oh, That should be easy." She pulled out her small backpack and started putting pieces together. In the meantime we went to Snowdrake to see if we could get a map of the ventilation system. He obliged and gladly gave it to us, he didn't want any customers worrying about stolen items.

We opened up the map and saw that that ventilation pipe that led to Undyne's room, came from a branched pipe that led to all the other rooms, but originated in the basement.

Alphys was soon done with the robotic camera. and we controlled it down into the pipes, for about 10 minutes there was nothing, until we reached the opening to the basement area. "See anything yet Alphys?" I said as we all huddled around the tablet she was holding.

"No n-nothing yet Chara. W-Wait." there was a flash in the top right corner of the screen, as she panned the camera to it the camera was attacked and it shuddered. The camera soon came back on... But it wasn't in the vents anymore, all we could see were short clips of internet memes.

"what the heck?" I said outloud. "Well whatever the case they are down there and we have to catch them before the escape. Everyone head to your rooms to keep watch! Snowdrake, keep a lookout on the entrance to the basement, we will head down there with you." We moved out to our locations. Me and Frisk slowly entered the basement with Snowdrake watching the door behind us.

It was dark, the snowstorm yesterday must have knocked out the lights wiring down here as well. Me and Frisk both had flashlights. I turned my flashlight out to the right and I saw something shiny.

I ran over and picked it up. It was Papyrus' Spaghetti plate! I turned my flashlight more and a trail of the missing items appeared and we followed it as we came across the last Item the Pearl Necklace I looked up to see a small nest made up of towels and old bed sheets. Right in the middle, was our good friend the annoying dog. "I should have known" I slapped myself in the forehead for not thinking of this. We gathered up the Items and handed them to Snowdrake.

We made our way back and carefully picked up the sleeping dog. We heard some metalic sounds coming from the dog. He had a dog collar! On it was a tag, It said "Hello! I'm the annoying dog! Call me Toby!" we laughed and headed back upstairs making sure everyone got their items. The rest of the day we were in our room with Toby playing around, and making sure he didn't do anything like that again.

I think we are going to keep him as a pet!

Plane POV

The plane flew for not too long from the small island until it ended up at one more island with some ancient structures built upon it.

It had come in for a landing, but had overshot the field and was now on a cliff just above the ocean below nearly about to fall.

Froggit: Ribbit Ribbit (Hey Whats that over there Whim?)

Whimsun: I don't know but it looks stuck!

The two ran to the top of the mountain for help. But not to close.

Froggit: Ribbit Ribbit (Um Tsundere plane we need your help!)

Tsundere Plane: Why are you here? I don't need you guys to be here!

Whimsun: We think that there is another plane in trouble on the cliff!

Tsundere Plane: Well... They can take care of themselves!

Whimsun: But if you don't help then it will fall into the ocean!

Tsundere Plane: ... Fine but I'm not doing this just because they are another plane, Only because you asked!

The three went down the mountain and Tsundere plane helped the Paper Airplane fly once more by having rest on her wing as she flew along. Tsundere Plane had a big blush on her when the plane finally flew over the vast ocean.
