Chapter Seven
Toriel, Papyrus, Undyne, and the Monster kid floated after Chara now. Toriel to try and help monsters, Papyrus to try and find his brother, Undyne to try and protect Alphys somehow, and Monster Kid to simply follow Undyne. They were all updated on everything, about the resets, about Chara being a demon possessing the human, everything. What was the point of hiding it, they were already dead after all.
"Undyne, I'm sorry," Monster Kid apologized to his role model.
"It's alright kiddo, if you had been able to grow up, I would've let you and Papyrus join the Royal Guard on the spot," Undyne said, punching his hsouler lightly, "Being able to face danger like that head on, trying to protect those who you love, that's a great trait every royal guards member should have. I'm proud of you both."
Monster Kid squealed with hopping up and down while Papyrus smiled to himself, before it fell.
"Do you think she'll kill Sans?" He asked, pulling at the edge of his costume.
"She might, she might not..." Toriel said, "It just depends if she magages to find him or not."
Chara appraoched where Mettaton stood, getting ready to attack the robot. He stood there in his NEO form, watching as she grew closer.
"I will not let you hurt my viewers!" He yelled, getting ready to fight her.

The four followers watched in surprise as the piece of metal fell to it's side after one hit, a suprised look spreading across his face.
"Gu-Guess you don't want to join my famclub, huh?" He muttered before he self destructed, pieces of metal and flames flying thorughout the room.
The spirits didn't bother moving, since it just phased right throught them, but Chara had to dodge, getting struck on her arm by a stray metal piece, bringing her health down by two.
"Tch, weakling," She muttered, rolling her eyes before squatting down next to his software, picking up some little device she stole from Alphy's lab before plugging it into a cord slot.
"What's the demon doing now?" Toriel asked, crouching down next to her and staring at the small screen.
"That's definitely something Alphys made," Undyne said, "I reconize it from her lab. She pointed it out when planning out places to evacuate everyone."
The device beeped for a few moments before coordinates popped up, flashing on the screen before a map was dragged onto the screen.
"So, that's where the lizard hid the monsters," Chara giggled, her mouth stretching into a grin.
"Don't you dare kill Alphys!" Undyne yelled, "Or else you're going to reset a lot more then just two times!"
"Yeah!" Monster Kid yelled, backing up her.
"She can't hear you, don't waste your voices," Toriel said softly.
"Well, time to have a little bit of fun," Chara said, heading off with her spirit followers close behind.
They simply floated behind her as she made her way back to Hotland, before going down a different route to the bunker place where people were evacuated to. The path was a puzzle of flowing lava, which wasn't usually activated due to how dangerous it was, but with the threat of the human, Alphys had activated it. She didn't want them getting through.
Unfortunately, Chara did after, easily faking her voice for a Monster child in order to trick them to open the vault doors, which held most of the rest of the Monster population inside of it.
The adults quickly pushed their children to the back and hide then while the rest of the Royal Guard attacked Chara. Chara managed to get by their attacks before hitting two of them, one of then dusting away immediately. After another strike she knocked down the other, quicjly reaching her hand out to the glowing star to save it.
More guards ran up after the children had been hidden, giving their all as they threw magic attacks at the human. She was overwhelmed and killed, the world fading to black more more as she stood in front of those flowing buttons once again.
"So this is what it looks like, huh," Undyne said, looking around at the dark world.
"Here we go again," Chara grinned.

And the world went back.
Chara managed to kill off all of the Royal Guards as her LOVE increased highly, taking a quick breath before lunging into battle against the normal, citizen monsters. Due to not being trained very well, and Chara's determination and LOVE at high levels, they couldn't do too much against her before she used their own attacks and her attacks against them, gaining plenty more levels. The four spirits that had been following her had a bit of trouble keeping up with her, but they were explaining to the monsters that they were dead and spirits. Some took it well and went to mingle with their friends, while others were having a hard time processing everything. Grillby, who had been killed in the battle, decided to help the four, explaining to nrwly deceased monsters from combat everyone. It was sad, watching so many spirits pop up left and right. Some of them were hard workers, some of them were parents who went to rheir child's sides, some of them were relieved to see their thoughts didn't disappear.
But, after another reset, Chara had made it through every adult that was defending the children, except for one Monster.
Who was Alphys.
"H-How could you?" She yelled, "How c-could you kill s-so many p-people?"
"Alphys!" Undyne yelled, "Get out of the way, don't be a hero, run away with the children!"
"Because," Chara giggled, "It's just so much fun!"

"Alphys!" Undyne cried out.
Obviously, she knew she could talk to Alphys again is she was a spirit, but that had slipped from her mind at the moment. When you watch your crush get striked across the stomach, and you know they're going to die, you can't help but feel awful, even if you're a spirit.
"Pl-Please," Alphys begged the demon as she fell to her knees, "Spare the children. T-Yhey're just as old a-as, or are y-younger then you."
"Let me think about that," Chara said, venom leaking from her voice as she looked over the small sea of children staring terrified at her while Alphys dusted away, "Nah."
"Alphys!" Undyne screamed, squeezing the dinosour monster into a hug, "I can't believe you just did that!"
"U-Undyne?" Alphys asked, her eyes soaked with tears as she hugged her back, "I-I'm so happy to see y-you again!"
"Me too, you big nerd," Undyne sobbed, crouching down with Alphys on her lap, "I will never be ungrateful for what I have again."
The screams of the children could be heard as they were brutalky slautered like helpless animals, her sadistic grin on her face the whole time.
"Oh my g-god," Alphys stuttered, looking at the blood and dust splattered everywhere, "W-What is that t-thing?"
"Yes, what exactly is going on here?" Grillby butted in, the spirit of his niece on his arms as he soothed her from the trama she had just experienced.
"Yo, Kid," Undyne said.
"Yes!" Monster Kid perked up.
"Can you handle the children, help them understand the situation?" The red haired monster asked him, "Don't tell them about the resets, just about the whole spirits thing, and help them find their parents and calm down."
"Anything for you!" He said before running off.
"Grillby," Toriel said, "I believe we should go outside and discuss this, away from everyone else.
Grillby, Alphys, Undyne, Toriel, and Papyrus all floated outside, Alphys was still in Undynes arms, and neither of them seemed to mind. After all, they both had a crush on each other, and had been reunited after death.
"Now," Grillby said, turning around, "What's this reset you were talking about?"
"It seems the first human who had fallen down, Chara, has possessed the 7th humans body, which we don't knoe their name. The 7th human has a lot of determination, which allows them to go through time somehow," Toriel explained.
"O-Oh, I know a-bout th-this!" Alphys said, "Since humans have more ability to hold determination, if they had enough, their determination would be so strong were it would affect time itself. So, this Chara person must've known the 7th human had this ability and took over her soul."
"I see..." Grillby said, "How many times have they reset?"
"Well, they reset once during the fight with Undyne, and once during this fight, so only twice," Papyrus said, "But the Great Papyrus is sure they won't make it past Asgore!"
