Chapter 6: Asriel
"Look, look, this is my room"
Asriel proudly showed Frisk his messy room, on its walls there was a giant poster of All Might, right next to it there was another one that said "justice" and had someone in a really heavy looking armor...
However, before he could observe more, Asriel continued running around the house trying to show his new sister as much as possible so that she could get used to her new home.
"That's Dad's study right now, he's taking care of some pretty pretty flowers if I may say so," Asriel said, pointing to a door.
"That's Chara's room right there," he said, going up the stairs to the second floor. "Try not to go in there, she gets furious when they wake her up for no reason."
Asriel suddenly remembered something and ran still dragging Frisk.
"Mom, where is your new room?"
Toriel, who was sitting reading in an armchair next to the fireplace, looked up.
"I think it will be fine next to Chara's room."
Asriel decided again to drag Frisk upstairs and opened the room.
It was already furnished, it just didn't have any decoration.
"I know what you can put in this part of your room, and this window overlooks the garden." Asriel excitedly began to tell Frisk what he could put, and they spent a few hours trying to decorate together.
Like brothers they were now.

"DAMN, another failed experiment" Garaki Kyūdai sitting in his chair was furious as he watched a gelatinous mass writhe.
He was currently affiliated with the League of Villains, and their leader All For One (AFO) was satisfied with his Nomu creations that he was in charge of producing, however that did not satisfy him.
He wanted to give something better than the Nomu to his master. The Nomus were at most cannon fodder, and despite modifying them they had many limitations, for example few could go unnoticed and none of the current ones had enough intelligence, although their master did not need something so useful yet, he dreamed of giving him THAT creation, But not being able to even get close to the perfection he was looking for despite so many years frustrated him greatly.
Despite having his research on the power of SOULS, he had not made substantial progress in his research for several years....
The Ch-1191 project was the closest to what was proposed in the ALMA project, however it was quite unstable and this term escaped him, Garaki believed that he could do something better than this so he did not look for it as he should, but there was no a progress that would soon have to be taken up and studied again...
The work Garaki read was somewhat different from his specialty, however, if he could only master it... he could combine it with his quirk work.
As I was pondering how to conduct another experiment, I remembered someone...
"Gaster..." Garaki said nostalgically, remembering that scientist.

After a few hours Asriel and Frisk finally managed to decorate their room,
"Come quickly" Toriel called them for dinner
As they went down the stairs Asriel explained to Frisk
"On Saturdays like today, mom makes a cake, it's the best you'll find in a 100 kilometer radius, or at least that's what Chara says"
As they went down the stairs, Frisk noticed with surprise that Chara was already sitting in her place at the table.
"Surprised? I've never been able to get there before her when we go to dinner" said Asriel.
"If you were hungry you'd go down quickly too" answered Chara obsessively observing the cake.
"But I've never seen you go down the stairs" answered Asriel curiously.
"It's slow, there are shortcuts for that"
"So, which ones?" asked Asriel curiously.
"Well, some" said Chara making it clear that he wasn't going to tell her.
Frisk, a little curious, approached Toriel to ask where he could sit.
"Oh baby, you can sit next to me" said Toriel pointing to the chair on her left.
"Do you think daddy will be late?" asked Asriel to Chara.
"I don't know, since he accepted the job as a teacher he takes longer than when he worked at the flower shop"
Frisk, a little nervous, as if he had trouble getting the words out asked "And what does D-Dad do for a living?"
"Before, I worked at a flower shop, but since I always gave away flowers I never make money, so when I received a job offer from UA as a professor of the optional subject of botany, I accepted" said Chara without taking his eyes off the cake.
Just then the door opened and a person resembling a goat came out.
Asriel ran out to greet him.
"Dad, I'm glad you came" he said hugging him.
Asgore gave his son a big hug and also welcomed him. -I'm glad you're okay Asriel, and Chara, don't you want a hug?
However, Chara still didn't move, staring fiercely at the cake.
-Uh well, I guess I was expecting... blinking as if trying to see if it was real she asked- Uhh, Hi, excuse me, who are you?
She said noticing Frisk
-Let's go to dinner, I'll explain later
Toriel said before Frisk said anything.
-Oh well, I missed your cakes
And so the family of five enjoyed a magnificent dinner in which almost 7/10 of the cake was eaten by one person...
Good night, said Toriel
After going up the stairs and entering her room Frisk saw Toriel following him.
-Do you want to hear a story?
Toriel asked.
-Of course
Frisk answered.
Then Toriel told him a story from far, far away, in which a little boy fell into a hole, where he lived some adventures with some friendly monsters, who became his friends and helped him get back home.
For some reason... he felt nostalgic.
̶a̶̶l̶̶m̶̶o̶̶s̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶a̶̶s̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶f̶̶ ̶̶h̶̶e̶̶ ̶̶h̶̶a̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶e̶̶x̶̶p̶̶e̶̶r̶̶i̶̶e̶̶n̶̶c̶̶e̶̶d̶̶ ̶̶i̶̶t̶̶ ̶̶h̶̶i̶̶m̶̶s̶̶e̶̶l̶̶f̶
When he finished, he kissed her on the forehead and wished her good night.
Suddenly a noise was heard
Thinking it was an animal, he didn't give it any importance
Because he was happy
Frisk was happy
He felt really happy and loved.
Almost as if after a long trip he was returning home
He fervently wanted to SAVE these moments, it was what persisted in his mind as he fell into a deep sleep...
