The Angel Of Monsters (HiddenTale!Sans x Chara) [COMPLETED]

Chapter 19: A Soul's ECHO (Part 1)

    Chara jumps onto her bed and lands face-first on her pillow.
    Frisk and Virus leave, closing the door behind them.
    A few hours later, Chara is asleep, and Hidden comes home from Soul's house after watching a movie and catching up.
    Hidden quietly pushes Chara's bedroom door open to check on her.
    Once he notices she's asleep, he smiles softly, then quietly walks to his room and goes to sleep.
    The next day, Hidden goes to visit his AU, leaving Chara alone at their house.
    ShiftFell Chara comes over to visit, and they just hang out on the couch, watching reruns of Cooking With a Killer Robot.
    Then, Reaper teleports in with a soul in a jar.
    Chara jumps, surprised by his sudden appearance. "Hello Death."
    ShiftFell nods, acknowledging Reaper. Her chain clinks. She really could care less. She has TV.
    "Yo." His eyes are completely black. "I guess Death really came knocking today... Or, teleporting into your house without any reason except for one."
    "And that reason is...?"
    "I found... A live soul... And... It seems to be from your magic structure... I found it in the soul chambers and DIDN'T EAT IT!"
    Chara gives him a small round of applause. "Good job NOT eating the soul, but what do you mean my magic structure?"
    "Well, some souls are taken from two types of remaining magic left in the afterworld. They can combine and form a whole new other being so... Childrennnnnn... I only accept my little ball of death, but yeahhhhhhhhhhhh... My cutie little ball of death!" He grumbles.
    Chara's eyes widen. "What!?"
    "Yeah! It's how Fresh's first kid was formed... This one has your magic structure, mixed with another's."
    "So... I pretty much have a kid?"
    "Welllllllll... It's not that easy. What you have here is a soul that has not taken a body form or stage yet. I can easily pull up a few dust remains and form a new body for it, as I did for Mettaton & Papyrus's child. Either that orrrrrrrrr... I get to eat it, technically anything in the soul chambers is MINE."
    Her eyes narrow.
    "What? It's good food! Children souls always taste better! Me and Goth eat them like candy! ... I sound like a cannibal again... D*mnit..."
    "You kinda do... I guess the option where you DON'T eat a child is the one I pick." She shrugs.
    "Dang it... Fine. Inhabilitate the soul... Come with me."
    "Okay."
    Reaper teleports to the ReaperTale True Lab.
    "And here we are... Where the true fun begins..." He set it up so it looks like the BatCave. "Um... Ignore that..." there are posters on the walls... "Those too..."
    "Nice place..."
    "Yeah... Ummmm... You can touch the... Walls... And... Stuff... Not my collectors though." There are anime swords on the walls. "Um... Those things... MOVING ON!" He chuckles nervously and keeps walking. Figurines are scattered everywhere. "It's been awhile... Since I've been... Down... Here... Hehe..."
    Chara just shrugs and keeps following him.
    They finally make it to his soul center. "Finally! ... I used to use this baby to try to make myself a soul... I'll never have one, and even if I do... Well, we saw what happened to LOPD... Anyways..."
    Chara still doesn't touch anything... habits, I guess... She looks around though.
    Reaper takes the soul out of the jar and plops it in a tank filled with liquid. "So... I chose not to use dust, since this soul only has two main components... Unlike Impact, who had three and needed sustenance right... A-Away..." he sounds like a nerd. "Um... I'm boring you, aren't I...?"
    "Nah... When I was a kid I used to go down to the Lab when there was the first royal scientist... I wasn't allowed to touch anything, so... It's kind of a habit now..."
    He stops. "The... The first scientist... We don't talk about him here. He got me killed, and maybe... PD... So he's banished and prohibited. ALLLLLLLLLL of them."
    Chara looks down. "S-Sorry..."
    "It's... It's fine... He probably didn't kill PD anyways..."
    She looks at her hands.
    "... Anyways! So, how this works is... You're gonna be able to see your child formed. Every single detail, every organism to make them up! Everything shall be formed in a tube! And I shall get to watch the life cycle yet again! I've only seen it once!"
    "Cool!" She looks up.
    "Only one other person has been formed in this tube! And even made by MY magic! And... Well... He's no longer with us... But he sure was amazingly crafted! The embodied perfection of death and life collaboration!"
    "'K."
     Reaper sighs. "His magic scale was off the charts, and yet he chose to help instead of kill like me... He had a soul, it was fascinating to watch how the death avoided it... Like Legend's soul, but not a huge Save Point..."
(DEATH DORK! Reaper: *summons scythe* DON'T. CALL. ME. DEATH. DORK. Me: Okay Death Dork. Reaper: I can destroy your soul. Me: Then you'll have no one to roleplay as Chara, and you'll be stuck with another child.)
    "I'm sensing you getting sad, so... maybe we drop that subject and continue?"
    "Sad? No no! I could talk about this for hours! The science behind life! The way that death and life can come together to form a supernatural being even more powerful than Father God himself!"
    "Sometimes living isn't all that great..." she slightly shakes her head.
    "I know. I'm alive and dead... FOREVER. BUTTTTTTTT ANYWAYS!"
    "Okayyy..."
    "Yeahhhhhhhhhhh... SO TELL ME! How do you sustain yourself? Your body function doesn't seem to have ANY possibility of even keeping yourself upright! But yet you have enough of specific magic to last you a lifetime, and another! How do you do it? I've never been able to figure it out... The only character with more magic would be a Sans, but they have easy body types and functions!"
    Chara shrugs. "I dunno. I just do?"
    "Oh... Um... Well could I take a scan for myself? So I could... Study it...?"
    "I guess, I really don't care..."
    "OK!" He grabs his mini scanner and waves it over her whole body. "OK! I have a simple scale of your magic function, and body retrieval method!"
    "Okayyyy..."
    He's getting a LITTLE too excited for a Lord of Death... He's supposed to have an all around poker face. He plugs the scanner into his "Bat computer". He pulls his reading glasses out and tapes them onto the side of his face. "There! NOW!" There's a 3-D picture of her on screen. "NOW! Where is the magic source?!" He starts tapping on certain magic flow lines. "I need to find the main code, which makes you unbreakable in-game... But what...?"
    "I dunno. Frisk and I used to share a soul, then I got my own soul... But I died the first time to try to save the monsters and Asriel absorbed my soul..."
    "But in Genocide, there seems to be an unbreakable field around you. LOVE couldn't only do that, something else, some form of your own magic protected you somehow..."
    Chara mumbles. "Determination..."
    Reaper turns around slowly "... I... I know Determination is bad to you... But think! It can be used for good..."
    "Like what? I was forced to keep reviving a murderer because I had a special soul!" Tears form in her eyes.
    "I know! And I saw what you had to do... In my AU, you don't have to though! I can't be killed without a God Sword or Father God himself! ... I wish I could've freed the Charas... Some are now, like you..."
    She mutters under her breath. "She killed them all... three times... for fun... then blamed me for it..." she starts crying.
    "I don't." His eye flashes for a second. "That 'DEMIGOD OF MERCY' is what ended my Brother. And I feel your pain as much... Not for being blamed, but I know what you mean..."
    She wipes off her face with her sleeve and straightens.
    "Anyways... COME ON! It's beginning to form it's own organisms! So cuteeeeeeeee!"
    It's just tiny blobs coming together to make bigger... Blobs.
    "It looks like a lava lamp kinda..." She just watches it.
    Reaper excitedly squeals. "It's beautiful!"
