I Don't Want Them To Know...Yet

  "Why in the devil's layer are we going around here?" I inquired of my best friend's reptilian friend.

  "You'll see, just t-trust me" she vaguely answered. She was taking me behind the house of noodle bones and Mr.-love-me-please-I-have-a-strange-crush-on-you-for-a-reason-my-best-friend-can't-oh-I'm-sorry-I-mean-can-not-understand-because-your-a-son-of-a-bitc--female-dog-I'm-I-mean-I-am-Frisk-baby! (A\N: Don't ask). When we did make it to the back, I saw something I was not expecting to be behind the house. It was a huge metal building and from what it looked like, was separated from the rest of the house. "Come here" Alphys appointed for me to follow her as she began to walk into the building; I followed after her.

  What I saw when I went inside took me by even more surprise. I absolutely did not expect this from a couple of numbskulls, I guess I can't be too surprised though, I underestimated one of them before. There was not much to look at, however. It was a small laboratory with a tile floor, a desk with four drawers and...something covered up with a white sheet. Why the hell did she bring me here? Did she plan on running tests on me because of my soul? What was she doing?

  Alphys told me she wasn't planning on doing tests on me whenever she looked at me, I guess the look on me, told her everything she needed to know to say that. "I took you here because of this-" Alphys swiftly walked over to the part of the wall that was against the rest of the house. She typed a few things on her...watch? I wasn't a watch but it was something on her wrist. Suddenly, a mini, round door formed on the wall...wow, that was quite unexpected! That started to make me wonder about the other things these boneheads could be hiding.

  "Wow, does anybody else know about this place?" I wondered after I got a better understanding of what was going on.

  "Only me and Sans...a-and Frisk, but she doesn't know t-that Sans moved it to the surface," Alphys told me.

  "Oh..." how long has he had this place? What the heck did he need it for? I didn't like the sound of this...

  "Come on, Chara, through here" Alphys opened the mini door and started to crawl through it.

  "Wait! Alphys!" Alphys stopped crawling and turned her head to look at me. Sure, I said what I said to stall time because if I was honest, Frisk's confidence in this whole situation made me feel a little more at ease but I was still a bit unsure about it, though I was still a little curious about what I was about to ask. "Why in the world does Sans have a small door in his laboratory?"

  Alphys seemed a bit taken aback by my sudden question. "Um...he uh, he was too lazy to keep walking around the house leaving and walking here so h-he uh...made this?" Alphys self-consciously answered, knowing there were so many things wrong with that logic.

  "Can't he teleport? And I'm pretty sure making this is a whole lot more work than just walking around the house" I pointed out. Alphys thought about it.

  "I told him that...he said that teleporting is...also...to much work," Alphys told me. 

  I scoffed in disbelief. "Dumbass" I muttered. "Alphys, one more thing, do you...um, do you think...that...everything will be fine? That everyone will just...accept me?" this was another question I asked to stall time but still wanted the reassurance from, it was also another question Alphys was taken aback by.

  "Chara, i-if you're worried about because of your, um, g-g-geno-"

  "That's not the only reason, Alphys" I reassured her "I guess I am just being a big wuss, ain't I?" I sheepishly and unsurely laughed it off.

  "Um, I-I guess, i-if that's, um, what you want to be called?" Alphys sheepishly chuckled. I chuckled along with her, this girl seemed like a lot of fun to talk to. "Come on, Frisk is probably wondering w-where we are" Alphys finally told me. She crawled through the hole and I hesitantly followed. Hmm, the other side smelled like delicious, sugary baked goods. I didn't realize how hungry I was until now; my fear was starting to fade away at the excitement of possibly eating whatever I was smelling. 

  When I stood up, I could see that we entered a kitchen. A prick of fear came to me at the possibility that someone could be here or, at least, near. It went away as soon as it came when I realized that no one was in the kitchen. Where is everyone? I wondered. Then I heard snickering and giggling in the room ahead of the kitchen. The prick of fear came again; every past doubt I had before that Frisk tried so hard to get rid of, came back so brutally and was multiplied ten-fold. I gulped the huge, hard (A\N: NO, NO MA'AM, I'M NOT ACCEPTING ANY OF THOSE THOUGHTS TO BE ALLOWED ON MY KRIS-TAIN FRANSCRAFT SERVER, WHY DO I KEEP HAVING TO TELL YA'LL?! smh) lump in my throat. A voice 'shhhed' the other giggling person. A voice that seemed familiar for some reason, I just couldn't quite tell where I heard it.

  "Come here"  Alphys whispered to me. She walked into the other room and hid behind the edge of the wall separating the kitchen from the other room. The same voice that I recognized told Alphys that she was just talking about her and asked her where she's been. Ha, good luck getting that answer! I chuckled to myself. But, damn, that voice was so familiar! I just can't remember where I heard it! I was starting to get a little annoyed that I couldn't remember where I heard it; the only thing I can remember is that the voice wasn't apart of a pleasant memory. Oh well, I figure out soon who it belongs to.

  Alphys asked the darn voice if she could make an announcement and the darned voice let her. She started telling a brief story of how I'm now in physical form and the closer she got to the end of the story, the more the fears I had, unfolded. I deeply regretted letting Frisk talk me into doing this. I was heavily tempted to just run away, run away from everything, run away to never be found again. I tried to swallow next big, rock hard (A\N:...) lump in my throat, but this time, I could not. My eyes were threating to drop hot tears. 

  Finally, Alphys announced, "and here she is!". I tried to move. I honestly did. But it was like my whole body was super glued to the wall. I did not want to go in there! My mind rapidly flooded with one thought to the next, thoughts like, they're not going to want to see me, they're gonna be angry at me, I'm just a broken child to them, they won't love me anymore, THEY'RE GONNA FIGURE OUT WHAT I DID, I'M A MONSTER! My eyes started to form tears and my ears started to buzz. Normally I wouldn't have these kinds of thoughts or be this upset like this but I was in the moment and I really wanted to be accepted, a feeling I haven't felt in almost nine years.

  I finally was able to swallow the lump in my and gather the courage to stand in front of everybody, almost immediately regretting that decision.

  It was like the whole world stopped moving, everything was utterly silent, even the air conditioning stopped running (A\N: OMGOSH, GUYS, almost as soon as I thought about writing about the air conditioning stopping, the one in my house did! Or something, I don't know what...). I didn't dare look at any of the faces that seemed like were staring right at my stone cold soul. The silence made the buzzing in my ears louder and I could even hear my own heartbeat. Then one voice, a voice I longed to hear the most yet was the most afraid of, killed the silence.

  "Chara?"

  I jolted my head in the direction of the voice's owner. His expression was hard to read because it was full of so many emotions. Suddenly, I could no longer feel the presence nor the stairs of anyone else that was previously so unavoidable before, it was like no one else was even here. No one here but me and him.
