A/N: Sorry if this chapter seems a little lower quality than the others, I had to force myself to write if I actually wanted to continue the story ._.

(FRISK POV)

"Uh... Hello?"
"HELLO! THIS IS PAPYRUS!!!"
"Ok, how did you get this number?"
"THE NUMBER? IT WAS EASY!!! I JUST DIALED EVERY NUMBER SEQUENCIALLY UNTIL I GOT YOURS!!!"
"But Papyrus, you didn't even know I had a phone."
"CORRECTION! I DIDN'T KNOW YOU DIDN'T HAVE A PHONE!"
"But Paps, when I was at your house, I asked to use your phone because I didn't have one."
"D-DON'T BE SILLY, HUMAN. OF COURSE I KNEW. BECAUSE I KNOW WHAT I KNOW! I WANTED TO KNOW IF YOU KNOW... I KNOW WHAT I KNOW AS MUCH AS I KNOW I KNOW WHAT I KNOW!... YOU KNOW?" I turned to Alphys and Chara.
"Sorry guys I'm going to have to head out." I walked outside into the scorching heat of Hotland. "Paps, how did you know I had a phone?"
"HAVEN'T YOU ALWAYS HAD IT?"
"Papyrus, I literally got this phone not even 6 hours ago."
"NO, THAT CANT BE RIGHT... CAN IT?"
"Hold on, Paps..." I stepped back on to the lab. "Dr. Alphys?" She turned around from her screen.
     "Y-Yes?"
     "How long have I had this phone?" She looked confused.
     "U-Um, you had it when I found you?" My face dropped.
      "Alphys, you gave me this phone!" She looked puzzled.
     "That... sounds like it should right, but I definitely didn't give that phone to you." I couldn't believe my ears.
"Chara, what do you thi—" he was sedated on the hospital bed. "...oh."
"Yeah, I'm kinda surprised you even have a phone like that. The WDG model is Monster tech, and was discontinued and lost years ago." I saw everything around me shift. The walls stared to melt.
"Just like with the flower." My reality was slipping away faster.
"W-What?"
"Forget I said anything!" It stopped.
"What do you mean flower?"
"When I first fell, I met a little yellow flower that could talk."
"Don't e-engage with it." She sounded scared.
"I-okay..." I put the phone back up to my ear. "So, Papyrus, what did you need me for?"
