Brody's POV

After I returned to hotland I entered to the lab and see a big screen showing a camera recording me and I heard a door open and I see a yellow dinosaur monster "Oh. My god" she said "I didn't expect you to show up so soon prince Brody!"  Alphys said "I haven't showered, I'm barely dressed, it's all messy and....." Alphys said "Umm... H-h-hiya!. I'm Dr. Alphys, I'm Asgore-your dad royal scientist!" Alphys said "B-b-but, ahhh, I'm not one of the bad guys!" Alphys said "It's okay" I said "Actually, since you stepped out of the ruins, I've, um..." Alphys said ".....been 'observing' your journey through my console" she said "Your fights... Your friendships.... Everything!" She said "I was originally going to stop you if you were another human, but..." Alphys said "Not only are you the prince but watching someone on a screen really makes you root for them. You are like an anime protagonist!" She said 'Really?' I thought "S-so, ahhh, now I want to help you!" Alphys said "Using my knowledge, I can easily guide you through Hotland!" She said  "I know a way right to your dad's castle, no problem!" Alphys said and I nodded smiling "thanks Alphys" I said "Well actually, umm, there's just a tiny issue" she said "A long time ago, I made a robot named Mettaton" Alphys said "Originally, I built him to be an entertainment robot" she said. "Uh, you know like a robotic TV star or something" Alphys said "Anyway, recently I decided to make him more useful" she said "You know some small practical adjustments" she added "Like um....Anti...Anti-humanncombat features?" Alphys said "Of c-coutse, when I saw you coming, I immediately decided....I have to remove those features!" She said "Unfortunately, I may have made a teensy mistakr while doing so. And, um...Now he's an unstoppable killing machine with a thirst for human blood?" Alphys said "ehehehehe...heh. But umm, hopefully we won't run into him!" She said and we started to hear metallic grumble "....? Did you hear something?" She asked as it got louder and faster "oh no" she said.

"OHHH YES!" Mettaton said bursting through the wall "WELCOME, BEAUTIES... To TODAY'S QUIZ SHOW!!" Mettaton said while the only light was focused on him. As two disco balls descend with a banner saying Game show and confetti fell down. "OH BOY! I CANNALREADY TELL IT'S GONNA BE A GREAT SHOW!" He said "AND MY EYES DO NOT DECEIVE ME IS THE ONE AND ONLY PRINCE BRODY!" Mettaton said "LET'S GIVE A BIG HAND FOR OUR CONTESTANT!" He said clapping and I heard people clapping. "NOW LET'S START THE GAME!" He said as we entered a encounter.

"LET'S START WITH AN EASY ONE!!" He said

*What's the prize for answering correctly?

I was gonna answer when I saw Alphys to the side making a D with her hands. She's giving me the answer so I press D "RIGHT! SOUNDS LIKE YOU GET IT!" Mettaton said while Alphys gave me a thumbs up.

Since I couldn't do anything else I just pressed mercy "HERE'S YOUR TERRIFIC PRIZE!" He said

I look at Alphys who made a B so I pressed B. "EVEN EASIER FOR YOU HUH??????????" Mettaton asked and I spare again "HERE'S ANOTHER EASY ONE FOR YOU!" He said.

*Two trains, Train A and train B simultaneously depart station A and station B. Station A and station B are 252.5 miles apart from each other. Train A is moving at 124.7 mph towards station B, and train B is moving at 253.5 mph towards station A. If both trains departed at 10:00AM, and it is now 10:09 how much longer until both trains pass each other

A-31.054 minutes
B-16.232 minutes
C-32.049 minutes
D-32.058 minutes

There's no way I can read all that and answer so I see Alphys making a D so I pressed D "WONDERFUL! I'M ASTOUNDED, FOLKS!" He said and I spare again "Don't 'count' on your victory" he said.

*How many flies are in this jar?

It's clearly a froggit but Alphys is making a D so I confusedly press D and it was a zoomed in image of Mettaton wearing a froggit shirt "I'M SO FLATTERED YOU REMEMBED!" Mettaton said and I press spare. "But can you get this one?" He asked

*In the dating simulation video game "Mew Mew kissy cutie" what is Mew Mew's favorite food?

Before I could see the answers Alphts went into a long ramble about the answer "...IT'S AN ACTUAL POWERFUL message about friendship and...." she stop seeing she got caught "ALPHYS ALPHYS ALPHYS. YOU AREN'T HELPING THE PRINCE ARE YOU?" Mettaton asked "OHHHHH!! YOU SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME. I'LL ASK A QUESTION...." he said "YOU'LL BE SURE TO KNOW THE ANSWER TO!" He added

*Who does dr. Alphys have a crush on?

A-Undyne

'Hmmm maybe it's Undyne' I thought 'Why?' Arsene asked 'Well Undyne did mention her before' I said '....right' Arsene said and I pressed A "SEE ALPHYS? I TOLD YOU ITWAS OBVIOUS" Mettaton said "EVEN THE PRINCE FIGURED IT OUT" he said "YEAH SHE SCRAWLS HER NAME IN THE MARGINS OF HER NOTES" he said "SHE NAMES PROGRAMMING VARIABLES AFTER HER. SHE EVEN WRITES STORIES OF THEM TOGETHER....SHARING A DOMESTIC LIFE" Mettaton said 'Good god' Arsene said 'What's wrong with a domestic life?' I ask 'You-I.....you are too naive' Arsene said "PROBABILITY OF CRUSH: 101 PERCENT" Mettaton said "WELL WELL WELL. WITH DR. ALPHYS HELPING YOU.....THE SHOW HAS NO DRANATIC TENSION! WE CAN'T GO ON LIKE THIS!! BUT. BUT! THIS WAS JUST THE PILOT EPISODE!!" Mettaton said "I'LL BE SEEING YOU NEXT TIME PRINCE" Mettaton said flying away and the encounter ended.

"....Well that was certainly something" Alphys said, I walk over to here and she looks at me "Th-that last question....He wasn't supposed to ask that one..." Alphys said and I decided to leave the lab when Alphys stopped me "Wait! Wait!" She said walking over to me "Let me give you my ph-phone number!" She said "Th-Then... M-maybe... if you need help, I could..." Alphys said and widens her eyes seeing my phone "wh....where'd you get that phone?! It's ANCIENT!" Shwñe said. "It doesn't even have texting.w-wait a second, please" Alphhys said taking my phone and walking off and I hear a lot of noises then she comes back "Here, I upgraded it for you! It can do texting, items, it's got a kry chain.....I even signed you up for the underground's No. 1 social network!" She said "Now we're officially friends! Hehehe!" Alphys said "Thanks" I said "n-no problem. Hehe....hehe....heh............... I'm going to the bathroom. Call you later" she said going to the bathroom so I decided to leave.

As I left I received a lot of 'status updates' of Alphys till I found a save point.
