I'll Keep You Safe (DISCONTINUED)

Kathrena and Chara hugged while everyone else watched in confusion. Chara pulled away from the hug wiping away a few stray tears.

"Last time I saw you, you were just barely up to my waist," Chara said smiling.

"Everyone said you were dead, I can't believe you're alive! I missed you so much!" Kathrena said wiping away her tears.

"Well you see... I'm not actually alive..." Chara trailed off.

"What do you mean?" Kathrena asked tilting her head in confusion.

"Well..." Chara started then looked around to see everyone looking at her. She swallowed harshly and continued speaking. "So when I fell into the underground, Asriel found me and brought me to Toriel and Asgore who took me in as their own. I lived happily with them for a few years while others looked for ways out of the underground. One day me and Asriel wanted to make dad a butterscotch cinnamon pie and we didn't realize that  that buttercups were poisonous and we used those. After dad got really sick I realized that the only way for the monsters to get out of the underground, was for me to give up my soul. So one night while everyone was sleeping I snuck out and ate some buttercups. I guess Asriel woke up and saw that I wasn't in bed and came looking for me. By the time he found me in the garden I was laying on the ground waiting for death. I remember hearing him walking into the garden and rushing to my side, I remember him shaking me, trying to wake me up.  I opened my eyes to see Asriel looking at me with tears running through his fur and I reached my hand up brushing away a few tears and I said, 'Azzy don't cry, I was just holding you guys back, take my soul and break the Barrier, free the monsters Azzy, for me.' He sat there crying and shaking his head and telling me to not die while I closed my eyes as my breaths got more shallow and all I could hear what Azzy sobbing until it slowly faded into nothing. Next thing I knew I was in the garden again, except I could see my body laying on the ground in front of me. I was confused for a moment until I saw two furry white paws reach out and pick up my body. I then realized that my soul and Asriel's soul had merged together. Then we started walking forward and I realized Asriel was heading towards the Barrier with me in his arms. I tried to fight back and get him to leave me behind but I was completely helpless. At the pace Asriel was going it wasn't long until we reached the Barrier and we kept going straight through the Barrier and it took me a minute to realize that Asriel was taking me to the village where I used to live. I started panicking and trying to get Asriel to turn around and go back to the underground. Asriel headed straight for the centre of the village where a small patch of buttercups lay. He walked to the edge of the buttercup patch and gently laid my body. God it happened so fast. There was people with weapons everywhere surrounding us. Then they started attacking us and Asriel gently kissed my cold dead forehead before whispering something and walking out of the village. I never understood why Azzy didn't fight back while they slashed us with swords and pitchforks. Next thing I remember was us being back in the garden and collapsing on the ground, then mom and dad running over to us screaming and crying and holding us tightly. Then very slowly we turned to dust and my soul separated into two, one half stayed with Asriel and went into a buttercup, which is how he became Flowey, and the other half went to Frisk, which was why she had enough determination to reset and why she used to have voices in her head. So yeah... I'm not really alive... I'm just a part of Frisk..." Chara explained lowering her head.

"But wait if I'm not Flowey anymore then wouldn't that mean that your other soul half would have went to Frisk to help you become alive again?" Asriel asked.

"Yeah that would honestly make sense as to why you have a body of your own," Kathrena said thoughtfully.

"it could also be that that chara is more monster than human now," Sans pointed out.

"I agree w-with that. Asriel's s-soul c-could have b-been m-made whole again a-a-as well..." Alphys stuttered.

"You guys really think so?" Chara asked lifting her head.

Papyrus groaned and hunched over and Kathrena, Sans and Alphys rushed to him as he lost his balance and almost fell over. A moment later he lifted his head and very faint ghostly cracks ran from his right eye upward and from his left eye to his mouth. Sans backed up in shock his mouth opening and closing but no words coming out. Papyrus' head slowly turned towards Sans and he slowly walked over to him and grabbed his shoulders. Papyrus gave him an easy smile.

"Hello my son, I have missed you dearly," Papyrus said his voice extremely distorted.

Sans continued to stare before passing out and falling limp into Papyrus' arms. Papyrus gently picking him up and laid him on the couch.

"H-Hello again D-D-Dr. G-Gaster..." Alphys said.

"Hello Alphys," Papyrus/Gaster smiled at her.

"Will he be okay?" Frisk asked him.

"Yes he should be fine. It's just shock that made him faint," Gaster explained to Frisk. Frisk nodded and sat on the floor in front of the couch that Sans was laying on and started gently stroking his skull and he smile unconsciously.

A/N:

Omg I'm so sorry this chapter took so long to write but I've been so busy with school that I haven't touched Wattpad or had any motivation to write but here's the chapter. Also sorry for Chara having a really long dialogue. And sorry if this chapter was stupid or this whole book is stupid in general. I might actually kill off Kathrena. That or make her disappear idk tho, doesn't feel right to kill off myself. Well anyway I should probably go to sleep it's like 3:25AM. Also please comment who's point of view you want the next chapter to be in. Bye.
