Celes heard what Mettaton in Skylar's body said.... and could not resist just laughing at this.
"WOW.... POOR SKYLAR... SHE IS GONNA HAVE A HARD TIME WITH THAT MAKEOVER!" Celes said.... before noticing how she was talking... higher now.
"OH... UHMM... THIS IS STRANGE..." She said before moving to Papyrus with her body.
"THAT MY FRIEND WOULD BE EARTH MAGIC. YOU GOT 3 ELEMENTS THAT YOU CAN USE. EARTH, WATER AND NATURE, FEEL FREE TO TRY THEM OUT WHILE WE TRAVEL." She then said as she try to fallow Skylar and Mettaton.
"AND TO BE TALKING LIKE THIS SUDDENLY... IT IS A BIT.... WELL..." she says as she then goes to continue to walk. It was probably the time betweeen her adjusting to the body and such... which would explain why she was talking like this.

Erion hears what Annie said... as he looks at her calmly before they got to the forest.
"I understand what you mean. I know we can't trust all of them, but putting them all in the same basket is the problem here. I was with that group, and considering that they had another human with them and they were not attacking her or anthing, that makes me think that they are not bad people..." he says to her calmly, giving a small patient smile. As they arrive to Asgore and the group, he looked at the group and breath deeply.
"Guys... glad to have found you... we kinda need some apologies here for what happen earlier." he says as he looks at Annie. He then noticed that other monster that rushed to.. attack. Erion had a hand at his blade.
"And if that guy here tries anything to attack her, I will not go easy... I trained long enough in fencing, don't underestimate me." he then said, but he didn't draw his sword. He just gave a warning look to the guy. He then breath deeply and calms down. He hoped things would not end up going crazy once again. He knew that more human allies would be needed in all this...

[Lugia]

Everything seemed to be going well, as it seems like Mettaton wasn't exactly broken up over this whole body swapping business, that is... until he said that Skylar apparently desperately needed a makeover. I would have said something, but I was too busy trying to figure out the randomness of it all. Skylar commented that she might not survive this, and all I could really manage to say was "Um... good luck?" as if to try to get away from that situation, I turned my attention to Undyne, who was in Chen's body, and screaming at a mirror that they're a wimpy nerd. That gave me a bit of an idea... I rolled up to Undyne, and said "You know... we could set up a challenge, this body has a powerful human-made weapon, right? Well... I bet someone like you can go through the rest of this without it! Heck, that'll surely prove that, no matter what body you end up in, you'll never be a wimp, or a nerd! Just hand me the weapon, and I'll store it away, safely... this body, in this boxy form is nearly indestructible, you know... or, at least, that's what Mettaton always says," I then looked over to where Aria, in Sans' body was, just to make sure that Chen, who I assumed was the small person from all of this, just to make sure that they were focusing more on the lazy skeleton than they were on me. Honestly... I hoped I was right about Chen being in Aria's tiny body, rather than Sans'. Even if Sans never seemed to do anything, I shudder to think what Chen would be able to do with Sans' teleportation, and a weapon of any sort.

"Just think of it as a dental appointment," the king had told him.

Oddly enough, Sethlan actually enjoyed going to the dentist. Sure it was initially unpleasant, but he liked the feeling afterwards of having clean teeth. It gave him the same sort of satisfaction that he got from finishing a really nice blade, or more recently a well-crafted garden tool (there wasn't much demand for weapons nowadays). If that was what it would be like to apologize for what he did, he certainly felt better about the concept. Or at least he felt he was slightly less likely to have an anxiety attack when he had to apologize to the girl.

Nevertheless, he elected to crouch behind the larger Boss Monster as the group approached the girl, who was standing alongside another human that he didn't recognize. Sethlan didn't want to look like he was leading the group after charging out of the woods like a maniac earlier, and while running around screaming and brandishing a weapon wasn't all that uncommon among monsters, especially if you were involved with the Royal Guard, Sethlan didn't want to cause another situation. At the mention of an apology, he poked his snout out from behind the group and stepped forward.

"U-uj, hey there," he said meekly, trying to look the girl in the eyes but staring at her shoes instead. "I, uh..."

"And if that guy here tries anything to attack her, I will not go easy..." the other human suddenly piped in, his hand resting threateningly on his weapon. "I trained long enough in fencing, don't underestimate me."

Sethlan froze in his tracks, his left eye twitching like mad. A challenge. Any other time, any other place, and Sethlan would have gladly crossed swords with this human without a second thought. No hero would have allowed his honor to be questioned in such a way! Still, Sethlan bit his tongue. He already caused trouble once by charging into battle, and based on that look Asgore had given him earlier, he knew better then to cause it twice. At least the mental picture of him heroically defeating the human in pitched battle over the slight took the edge off his fragile nerves.

"A-anyway, I think we got off on the wrong foot earlier. I, well, thought I was being attacked back there, so I kind of jumped in before I got a good look. I'm sorry if I hurt or scared you in anyway, that was the last thing I wanted to do, honest."

[KaiserElectric]

Undyne prodded her own Sans-occupied body with her big toe, attempting to rouse the lazybones into action. She stared into her own eyes (a surreal experience to say the least) as they blinked a couple times before silently drooping closed, her head lulling to one side as 'she' began to snore gently. The actual Undyne's eye twitched madly at the sight of this latest feat of laziness on Sans' part.

That lazybones had fallen asleep! In HER body, no less!

Clenching her fists in frustration and outright fury, she prepared to unleash a rage-filled howl at the indignity of this entire situation before she felt a prod on her shoulder. Swinging her head around to give the intruder the evil eye, she came face-to-control-panel with the Underground's favorite TV star.

"You know..." he said to her cooly, "We could set up a challenge, this body has a powerful human-made weapon, right? Well... I bet someone like you can go through the rest of this without it! Heck, that'll surely prove that, no matter what body you end up in, you'll never be a wimp, or a nerd! Just hand me the weapon, and I'll store it away, safely... this body, in this boxy form is nearly indestructible, you know..."

Something clicked inside Undyne at those tinny sounding words. A challenge...yes of course, that's what this was! This weird bodyswapping thing was a challenge for all of them, and if there was one thing Undyne knew she was good at, fishbody or no fishbody, it was a challenge! Sure this would move all the way past a "lift heavy objects" challenge to the "befriend a puny human" level with this body, but there was still plenty of Undyne under this weird human skin! She didn't need fancy armor or a powerful human-made...wait, weapon?

"A weapon? What kind of weapon?" Undyne asked, a bit of her old enthusiasm coming back. "Is it one of those big swords like in the history books? I know Alphy's keeps saying that the humans don't actually make them but I think if I keep...huh?"

Undyne blinked in confusion as she found the dagger on her, or more accurately Chen's, person. Frowning slightly, she looked at the strange blade from a couple different angles before testing the sharpness of the blade with her finger, only to find it was quite dull. She scowled at the disappointing knife.

"What kind of a weapon is this?" Undyne snarled as she waved it around over her head before handing it over to Mettaton. "I'd be lucky if I could defeat a pack of butter with that hunk of junk!"

Marisa was working at the blacksmith for hours for the orders that kept going,good thing she loves her job,or she would have went home early."whew..im tired.." She said as she wiped her head,she faceslamed into the anvil then looked up to read the last order. "A Percival Vernier? What does that mean...? Ah well" she said as she went to the "Percival Vernier's" home. "(This better be the right place..)" she thought as she rung the doorbell/knocked on the door.

Underground Search Party-Ruins

Skylar looked to Celes when she spoke and her voice started to mimic how Papyrus usually spoke. As she turned to face Papyrus and explained her magic, Skylar turned her attention to David and Undyne. She watched as David's words seemed to make something click in Undyne's mind (it was plain on her, or rather Chen's, face). She did remember how Frisk mentioned that Undyne befriended them as a challenge. So, this was definitely helpful. She watched as Undyne managed to fish out a knife from Chen's person, and her (or rather David's) eyes grew wide. The knife's presence only made Skylar feel even more uneasy about Chen. She then said to everyone, "Um...we should probably continue onwards. It may just be me, but I'm not sure if I want to leave Mettaton alone for much longer," She then started leading the way, still not quite used to being a bird monster's body.

Surface Group

Town of Ebbott

Annie looked to Erion when he answered her statement, and after he had finished, she only mumbled "Ah...Is that so..." As soon as they found the monsters, she hid behind Erion, looking at Asgore, Alphys, and Sethlan from behind Erion. She looked to the pangolin monster when he stuttered and suddenly went quiet at Erion's comment that he would fight. Annie had noted how Sethlan looked after that little comment, and after the apology was done, Annie stared at him for a moment before reluctantly conceding "Alright, fine. I forgive you. But...I'm still expecting proof that you guys were telling the truth,"

Asgore smiled glad that the apology was accepted, and after Annie made her expectation clear, he answered "Of course. Alphys will show you. Er...I'm no good with technology. I'm not quite sure what she's doing..."

???

The door opened to reveal a young man with blonde hair and a pair of glasses, he wore a nice casual suit, clearly showing that he was interested in business only. He adjusted his glasses as he studied the girl in front of him carefully. He then asked her, "Ah. You must be Marisa. Is that correct?" He then opened the door a little wider and invited her, "Please come in. We can continue our business transaction inside,"

[Majoraa]

MARISA
Marisa walked in the man's home,filled with curosity as to what a man like him was wanting a weapon for. "Nice home,anyways...what do you need this for?" Marisa ask as she pulled out the man's order from her bag. "Is this what you wanted? Because it took 3 hours to get done perfectly..." Marisa mumbled the last part under her breath.

When she was on her way to deliver said weapon,she saw a grey ominous door in an alley. Curious as always she thought of opening the door and seeing what is inside. But,she seen alot of detective shows and read the books,so she knew to ignore it and continue walking before she got kidnaped. Or worse,killed. Its a blessing that she has weapons with her at all times.

Those same genre books and movies/shows also inspired her to solve the dissappearance of the ambasador of monsters,frisk. After work,she always goes to the break room to get her leters done. Now she uses it to study occuring events. If you would have access to the room,you would see it cluttered with books,papers,pictured conected with red tape,lots of stuff. Thats how much she wants to know what happened. If you ask how she knows,its what had her study monsters at the start of it all,rumors.

RED
Red was at the same place she always goes to to calm her anger. She watched the dandelions fly over her head and smiled alittle at it. The smile slowly faded when she started to think of her missing friend and what posibly happened to them. Head down and grip on her cutlass,she stabed the ground in a fit of anger. "GOD FREAKING DANGIT!!!" red yelled as she fell to her knees. "s-stay calm red,they maybe ok. They are fine on their own....they are strong....theyll be fine....they..." red paused as she had a look of a mix of worry and fright. "They may have been kidnaped...o-or worse...died...or killed someone and went into hiding..

Red then punched the side of her head and said "Ugh! What am i thinking!? Of course they wouldnt harm anyone,they broke the barrier by their pacifism for crying out loud!" red sighed and looked up again to the sky. "I hate this...i hate this so much..." she said with a bit of sadness in her voice.

[Evanist]

Erion just stayed calm as he looked at Alphys, and the other monsters, before looking at Annie.
"At least they apologized. But ya... it was all a mistake." he says to her as he looks at the group, but had noticed how Sethlan reacted to what he said. He would need to keep an eye on him, that is for sure.
"I did notice earlier that the weapon actually slip from her hands... Which caused the accident.... she really felt sorry back then.... trust me... " he then says to Annie calmly, looking up to the sky.
"They are not bad people." I add.

---

Celes saw the knife... and shivers at this, just moving forwards. She had a bad feeling about this guy, and him having a knife like that was making her feel more and more worried.
"LET'S.... JUST KEEP GOING NOW AND TRY TO GET OUR BODIES BACK! LAST THING WE WANT IS TO BE STUCK LIKE THIS FOREVER, AND I REALLY DON'T WANT TO BE A SKELETON FOR TOO LONG. I PREFER MY OWN BODY THANK YOU." she then says before moving forwards, trying her best to move with this body. This was annoying.

[Lugia]

"Ah, yes, thank you. Don't worry, I will keep it safe!" I commented to Undyne, who handed me the rusted knife in response to this. I took the knife, and wheeled my way over to Skylar, who was still in my body. "Hey... keep this in my dimensional box... it's in my phone, and nobody else should have access to it," I whispered to her before fumbling around with the knife, a little bit. I eventually managed to hand it to her handle-first, and I knew I could trust her to do pretty much exactly that... or, at least find a way to hide it, herself. That's one weapon down... and, despite appearances, it IS quite a strong weapon down here... I thought as I continued onward. Sure, it felt weird having used one of my friends, but, this was a golden opportunity, and I'm sure Undyne will appreciate it when Chen has something much weaker as his weapon... though, I don't doubt that he'll at least find SOMETHING to use as a weapon, unfortunately. Who knows? Maybe if things go horribly wrong, I'll find some use for this, myself... no... I really shouldn't use something like this, no matter what Chen does... I thought as I continued through the corridors, passing by a very specific pillar that I could almost swear had someone hiding behind it.

RED

Red decided to take a walk to the ruins. "Y-Yeah..that should calm me down..." She stood up,brushed herself off,then left for the core. While walking,Red spotted the river person. "Tra-la-la~ where will you be going young adventurer~?" The river person asked. "waterfall,please." Red replied. One trip later,red arrived to waterfall. She walked slowly,taking in all the scenery,and trying not to run into temmie vilage. "Heh. Im starting to feel better already." red said as she walked through muffet's cave and arrived at snowdin. "Man,its so silent now that everyone is gone..."
Red whispered to herself. Last stop was the ruins. Red heared footsteps and chatter as she was walking. "oh no! Gotta hide somewhere!" she said startled. Red then hid behind a pillar. "(I hope no one will find and attack me,but if they do,im ready)" red thought as she held a grip on her cutlass.

"I felt like Chen wasn't just any old goodie-two shoes. Oh, and maybe you wanna go to an anger management class, you seem to scowl a lot," I say, directing the last comment at Chen. I look at the end of the hallway, and I tried to teleport, but I was unable to. I grimaced for the first time. It almost felt natural, really. I looked back. "Uh, so, let's go then? It won't be too hard, you just need to walk... a long way," I say. But as I took my first step, I felt like a spinal cord in someone who has scoliosis, and I stumbled and fell down. It actually hurt, and it was the first time that I had ever felt that kind of a pain, and I shook a bit as I got up. "I kinda feel like a fish out of water," I say. At least I still had my puns.

Alphys
[/hr]
I had been sitting down, listening to the conversation. "I-I never meant to fire my weapon. I just knew that some of my friends were in that cave, and I didn't want them to... get hurt," I said sheepishly, picking at the grass and looking at the dirt in front of me. I looked up at Annie, and I said, "We do have definitive proof of someone going down there though. We just need to walk into the mouth of the cave, and I can show you," and I got up, turning towards the mountain again. "It should be easy. There'll be multiple sets of footprints," I explained, beginning to trek back up to the cave. "And Mettaton's down there, too, and he could probably give me a transmission through my phone. In fact, we could just call him right now!" I pulled out my phone, and I gave Mettaton a ring.

[Flood]

Chen watched as his knife was taken away and frowned internally. It would be more difficult to take control of any situation without that. It also hurt to have his backup plan taken away like that. But it was no matter, there had to be something he could use down here as a weapon. With so many fallen humans it was practically a guarantee.

"I don't scowl! And that rusty old thing was more for appearances anyways. I didn't know I would get to be in a group of strong people like you, so I brought something to scare people off. It's like the person inside my body said. That knife could barely hurt anyone! It was made for gardening!" Chen yelled as he put a rather cute pout on his face. He took a few deep breaths to look like he was calming down and sighed.

"It doesn't matter though, with you guys around I'll be plenty safe. I didn't need it. Especially with cool guys like Papyrus around!" Chen noticed the person in Mettaton roll over to someone else and whisper something, likely about the knife, but it didn't matter. He had already seen a person behind a pillar, they had a much sharper knife. 'Yes. That's a very sharp knife indeed. I can't wait to get a hold of that and find out what blood a monster bleeds.' Chen smiled widely, making it seem as though he was smiling about how cool Papyrus was. His path was long and winding, but the end was in sight.

[KaiserElectric]

Undyne just barely restrained a snort of laughter at the pun Sans had made. As groan-inducing as they were, not to mention this one being made at her expense, there was something about Sans' horrible yet oddly charming puns that always made things a little...lighter. Sure Papyrus would probably chew her out for being involved in such a horrible pun, a little brevity was more then welcome in between all the talks of lost friends and sharp knives. Besides, Frisk liked making bad puns too. It...made it feel like they were still here...

Rolling up her sleeves, Undyne felt more determined then ever to find her best friend and commence with more cheesy wordplay and started her march towards the end of the corridor, breezing past a column where absolutely definitely no one was hiding behind. Seeing Papyrus' meandering gait going far too slow for her tastes, she placed Chen's tiny hands on the square of his back and started to push him forward.

"Let's go, you nerds! Frisk isn't gonna wait around while we mess around, let's get out of here and find 'em and then we'll have a BIG SPAGHETTI DINNER!"

---

To say that Sethlan was relieved at the human girl's apology would have been something of an understatement. The clumsy pangolin monster was no stranger to mishap and disaster, and it was a welcome respite when things went horribly wrong but got resolved before they blew up in his face. Sure he got chewed out by a monster, gently threatened by the King himself to apologize, demeaned himself in front of a bunch of strangers, and got insulted by ANOTHER monster forcing him to swallow his pride and ignore a blatant challenge, but compared to most of the other times things went wrong that was practically a cakewalk. Things going wrong was an old story for Sethlan, to say the least.

What wasn't old and familiar was the news that there were monsters underground trying to find Frisk too. Quietly listening to the conversation play out, he waited patiently for Alphys to explain the situation before she started dialing for Mettaton on her cell phone. Two famous monsters in one day, Sethlan said to himself as he pondered the situation. Three actually, counting Dr. Alphys. Could this day get any stranger?

[Majoraa]

RED

("Guess no one is comming after all,whew, false ala-") red's thought was cut short when she heared a familiar voice.

"Let's go, you nerds! Frisk isn't gonna wait around while we mess around, let's get out of here and find 'em and then we'll have a BIG SPAGHETTI DINNER!"

"Captain Undyne...?" red whispered as she peeked and saw the captain of the royal guard with other monsters she hasnt met yet and two also new humans. "(If they are looking for frisk,then I need to help them as well.)" red thought. Red then used a crosshair to get their attention. "Captain,its good to see you again." red said as she walked out of her hiding spot.

Zzzk

Wagon+

The wagon's contents and appearance is based of this but isn't accurate to the picture.

>Start
"One more day", thought Zzzk. With sore muscles Zzzk dropped the wagon's chains and sat in the dust. It was wearing grey overalls and a tattered tan long sleeve shirt with a sun blocking hat. Zzzk's body was sweating with muscles and head pounding. Zzzk was just exiting a high dessert region into Mt. ____'s. Zzk has been dragging the wagon along for two months. Zzzk tempted to try one of the "Magic potions" It's concocted. Zzza prepared it with it's story which hung off a tag made of leather. The tag told of what the potion effects was supposed to do, but Zzza had to always disclaim how the potions didn't work. Zzza had tried near all of the potions just to taste what the buyer might decide to digest. The potions were often hard to make when it came to gather the materials. Blending and doing any of the "rituals" was the easy part. Being the that rituals often never mattered, because the potions never ended up appearing magical.

Zzza had nine stacked piles of books that consisted of material on botany, enchantment, sorcery, leather work, cooking, ect. There are tons of diversity between each of the books. Many skills were learned from these, but many skills that could have been developed were lost on the lack of tools available to Zzza. Potions, books, some tools for blending and misc, a semi cramped living space, and hidden storage areas throughout the wagon would be a decent list of things that were included. Zzzk loved finding new books on useful topics, but took no use in anything else. Zzzk had came across a water damaged box filled manga once. Out of the entire box which included "Mew Mew Kissy Cutie" which found it's new place ten feet away from the box with a flick of an arm, was only two books that made its way out and into some hidden compartment of the wagon. One about "the regeneration of the world" and the other that Zzzk would be to embarrassed to share.

Zzzk was resting, sitting leaned over with chains resting on Its shoulders. Zzzk head was facing down at the ground as dirt blew into Zzzk'ss closed eyes. "Hhhhhf- Hhhhhha- Uuuughhhh- Tahh- Time to f- fi-hhh-nd someone. Hhh- " Zzzk said allowed to Itself. It didn't think anyone was around, but humored the idea of being bothered now as Zzzk would try to catch Its breath. Pretending there would be something to do other than walking and resting would be interesting, but actually less preferred at the moment. "1, 2, 3!" Zzzk suddenly flung Its body upright so it was sitting up. The Zzzk fell backward on to Its back making a small dust cloud above Zzzk. The wagon was over Zzzk just blocking the view from the sun.

One more day

[Major Ursa]

Wandering around in the female boss monster’s body, after the explanation of her magic, was admittedly tough work. Heavy, keeping one’s self upright and not splayed out on the floor, remembering to blink and breathe…

"It doesn't matter though, with you guys around I'll be plenty safe. I didn't need it. Especially with cool guys like Papyrus around!"

At this the Great Papyrus turned rather quickly, dizzily face planted on the ground, before finally taking a few long strides forward to the Miss (Chen)Aria. The smile was wide, and the eyes were starry, furry hands clenched in front of the boss monster’s chest before one finger was help up in a lecturing manner, “Wowie, such flattery…yes, but of course! Such tools as a—” Looking over to stare at the very sharp knife rather obliviously, “Knife are very unimportant when the most masterful of guides, the Great Papyrus, is leading your group! And, such a large group as well! Not to mention, we still have Undyne, captain of the royal guard with us…!”

As if on cue, (Sans)Undyne, captain of the royal guard, flopped over and proceeded to make a pun…not unlike his own brother. Calming this foreign sensation of a flesh and blood eye twitch coming on, “Nyeh…there is very little that can stand in our way!”

"Let's go, you nerds! Frisk isn't gonna wait around while we mess around, let's get out of here and find 'em and then we'll have a BIG SPAGHETTI DINNER!"

Taking a moment to process before the female monster’s eyes went huge, “Oh my god, you’re right, ah! So, you true feelings have come to light, Chen…you have been starving for my spaghetti since you came down here, haven’t you…?” Forgetting himself being in another monster’s body, he tried to reach for spaghetti like he had done so many times before, only to the successfully jab himself in the ribs, “Ouch…ow…ooof…!”

[KaiserElectric]

"Captain,its good to see you again."

Undyne was...conflicted to put it lightly. On one hand, with all this chaos going on Undyne was happy to see Red arriving to help out. Red was a respected member of the Royal Guard from back in the day, and someone Undyne could trust to keep a level head and bring a little stability to the group, as she still had her own body.

On the other hand...well Undyne may have gotten over her insecurities about being stuck in the wimpy human body, but she wasn't quite ready to go parading around said wimpiness in front of her former underlings. She had a reputation to keep, after all. Still, Undyne reminded herself with a dejected sigh, duty before honor.

"Uh, hey Red," Undyne said, raising one hand to show whose body she was in. "I'm over here. That's Sans in my body. It's a long story..."

[Guardian Angel Haruki]

Underground Search Party-Ruins

Main Group

Skylar accepted the knife from David and she nodded at his request to put it in his dimensional box. While the others spoke, she secretly used the code that David told her and she stowed the knife in that box before closing it and locking it. She was glad to be rid of that knife. Even though she only held it for a couple of seconds, something about it just felt wrong, and she didn't want to hold it more than she had to.

Skylar didn't like the feeling she got when Chen praised Papyrus, but she didn't say anything. Instead, her attention went over to the pillar when somebody stepped out and spoke to Undyne, and after Undyne spoke, the person disappeared. Skylar raised an eyebrow and she asked "What...just happened?" Aria, who was in Sans' body suggested "Maybe that was a trap too?" Skylar mumbled "I hope not. If it was, I hope that person is okay," Flowey scoffed "Who cares? That monster probably just got killed," He ignored the glare that came from Skylar.
Skylar couldn't help but smile happily at Undyne and Papyrus, as they seemed to be optimistic despite the circumstances, and determined to bring her sibling home.

They continued on into the next room (with the room north to it being a room that held the monster candy), where a ring tone could be heard coming from Mettaton's body. She looked to David and she suggested to David "I think somebody's trying to call Mettaton. Maybe you should answer that David. It may be Alphys and Erion,"

The Trapped (AKA Red's Consequences)

Red travelled far, and was lucky that most of the monsters that were still there had decided to just ignore her. However, in the core, there were areas where she had to navigate carefully, or she would have been wounded or given small cuts by a seemingly invisible or very small blade. However, there was no such sign of a blade.

In Waterfall, the walls were silent. There was no sound coming from the music box, and the stone statue that normally had the music playing was now missing. There was now a heavy feeling of dread hanging in the air. During Red's ride on the boat, the Riverman...or Riverwoman, sang as the boat continued down the river "Tra la la, the Great Earthshaker is free," Thankfully, Red faced no encounter, but the dread clings to her SOUL.

In Snowdin, Red would have seen many strange things despite the fog that hovered and shrouded all of the town. She would have seen crescent moon like grins with sharpened shark like teeth in the trees before disappearing. She also would have seen sentient playing cards running around and talking to each other. As much as the images she saw would lead one to believe that they were going insane, none were more chilling and horrifying than the images of Frisk turning monsters into dust with an emotionless look on their face, and red eyes piercing through the fog. After those images played, the Frisk that was there had disappeared into thin air. While Red continued to walk through the forest and towards the Ruins, she would hear a cacophony of many whispering voices in her ears. All of those whispering voices, the voices of her friends, were begging for mercy and for the pain to stop, sobbing and crying. Among those voices there was a tiny subliminal message worming it's way into Red's mind; A command that Red cannot disobey.

Soon enough, Red had made it into the Ruins. Whether she had been distracted by the voices and images experienced in Snowdin or not, she had passed through the basement, the house, and the halls. In one small crowded room with red leaves, she had passed a hyena monster, who was wearing a detective's coat over a MTT Resort waitress outfit, stuck sitting at a table with a plastic tea set and stuffed animals sitting in other chairs.
Red was lucky to not stumble into any traps...that is, until she stepped behind the pillar. As she stood there, a teleportation circle appeared under her feet and stayed under her feet as she stepped out to show herself. Before she knew it, she was fading and she disappeared from the sight of the main group.

Red would find herself at the table with the Hyena monster, this time she herself is now stuck sitting to a chair at that table, and her sword was not on her person, and she can't use her magic to get herself out of the trap.
At the table a melody seemed to be playing and voices were coming from the stuffed animals singing,

"Big Cake, Round Cake,
Right in front of me!
Who do you think,
This cake could be?"

One of the stuffed animals voices sang rhythmically

"Could the cake be Zuvari?"

The stuffed animals waited for a response.

On the table, there was also a piece of paper that seemed out of place for the childish set.

Surface Group

Town of Ebbott

Asgore was relieved to see that Sethlan had apologized, and not started a fight. He smiled and said to Sethlan and Annie, "I'm glad that that is settled now. I so wish I had tea to offer now," Now, he was waiting with the others for the call to go through and for Annie to see proof that they were telling the truth. However, they had no idea of the hilarious shenanigans they were about to see, or hear, on the other side of the line. After a while, he was starting to wonder if the group was alright, or if they somehow got hurt...

Annie on the other hand, remained tense. She was starting to doubt herself and the monsters as they waited for the call to come through. She started thinking about whether she should run or fight if this turned out to just be a trick to get her to lower her guard.

Once both were inside, and the man had locked the door, he inspected the weapons that Marisa brought over carefully, and he nodded approvingly. He dismissed her first question, "Nothing you need to concern yourself with, Miss Marisa," He then continued, commending her while he took out his checkbook, "Your craftsmanship is astounding. Here is your pay as promised," After writing his check, he handed it to her, and then opened the front door so as to indicate that she could leave.

Marisa

"Nothing you need to concern yourself with, Miss Marisa,"

"Oh, alright then." Marisa replied as she watched the formal-dressed man take out a checkbook. Grabing the check that the man wrote,she walked out the door. "Have a nice day, sir!" she said as she waved goodbye,and headed back to the workshop so she can close for the day.

On the way, she saw the same ominous door again. She decided to ignore it and went along the road like normal.

Red

"Uh, hey Red,I'm over here. That's Sans in my body. It's a long story..."

Red turned to where the voice came from and saw that Undyne was in a human boy's body. She calmed down alittle,knowing that she's not alone, but she was confused as to why Undyne was in a human boy's body ANYWAYS. "Um..how did you..?"
Before she can finish asking how her captain got their body swaped, she dissapeared out of their sight.

Red then appeared in a chair,sitting down with the overly cheerful hyena monster she passed by before. h-hey, w-what is going on?! Red paniced before she was startled by the stuffed animals singing a riddle.

"Big Cake, Round Cake,
Right in front of me!
Who do you think,
This cake could be?"

Red looked at what she was witnessing and her paranoia grew more. First,hearing about The Great Earthshaker was kinda worrying to Red, then there was the troubling visions that made her paranoia begin in the first place about if she was gonna have her life taken as well, the subliminal message that she can't get out of her mind didn't help her stay calm either. Now she wishes she just stayed in the dandelion room so bad right now, and not with a frightingly-happy-hyena-maid and her party of stuffed animals.

"Could the cake be Zuvari?"

"U-uh..hm..."Red had to think for abit to figure out the answer,having to close her eyes to not let the stuffed animals get in her head. 'I never heared this riddle before..is there really a right answer? Meh, forget it, just wing it.' Red thought before looking back at the stuffed animals and maid and answered with,

"N-no, the cake is not Zuvari."

Before I could even comment on the disappeared monster, someone decided to call me... or, more specifically, they decided to call Mettaton, and Skylar commented on me having to pick up, as it could be from either Erion or Alphys. "Uh, right, I really should," I said to Skylar before answering the phone. "Hello? Um... this isn't actually Mettaton if you're wondering why I don't sound right... long story, anyways, who is this, and what do you need my help with?" I decided against telling them that I was actually still in Mettaton's body, at this point, but, since the phone they called was literally inside Mettaton's body, it wasn't likely that someone stole it, at least, not without stealing Mettaton, himself. Actually... where the heck did Mettaton run off to? Didn't he say something about a make over? I mean, I know there are a couple little girls running wild here, but I'm not sure they'd just leave clothes and make-up lying around, right? I wondered as I waited for the monster or person on the other side of the phone line. I passed by the pillar, again, actually, I was more or less just pacing back and forth, as I occasionally did when I had to think, or was anxious about something, and this time, it might have actually been both. I was anxious about the phone call, and I was thinking about where the heck Mettaton went. Flowey commented that the monster might have just been killed, and as unlikely as that seemed, what made me a bit mad was how he just said "who cares", as in, who cares if a monster dies, despite him being a monster, himself... I think. While this flower WAS underground with the rest of us, I didn't actually know whether he was a monster, or not. He seemed like a rather... special case in the few times I saw him.
