Chara walked through the quiet forest slowly approaching the doors to the Ruins. Once she reached the doors she sighed and pulled them open only to see a pile of dust. Chara slowly approached the dust and fell to her knees, tears ran down her face and she cried softly as she pick up the dust and clutched it to her chest.
After sitting there and crying for a while she slowly began to calm down and slowly she wiped her eyes with her sleeves as the dust fell away from her. Chara slowly got up and trudged deeper into the house and looked around remembering happier times. Before she left she grabbed the recipe for Butterscotch cinnamon pie from the kitchen and smashed all the knives.
Chara sadly walked back the way she had come till she reached Snowdin where she turned off the main path and walked down the path that lead to the River Persons stop, once she arrived she saw River Person and already there standing and waiting for her. "So the Princess graces us with presence at last, I thought you would never brake your strings, Tralala." The River Person said.
"Hello River Person." Chara said ignoring the jab at her. "Are you ready to leave?"
"Marbel wishes to go where the river flows free and fast as such I shall follow." The River Person Replied.
"Who?" Chara asked confused only for the boat to turn and look at her and bark. Chara stared at the boa-Marbel for a moment before shrugging. "Ok, well let's go." She said as she boarded the boat. The boat pulled away and slowly drifted down the river. "Grillby is getting Napstablook from Waterfall, so we need to pick them up."
The river Person nodded. "A trip to the falls where if one chooses they may fall forever in the darkness of death, tralala." The river person said.
"Cheery thought." Chara said with a shudder.
The trip was quiet till they reached the Waterfall docks where the River Person slowed Marble. On the dock stood Grillby and a ghost wearing a set of headphones opened the door. The ghost looked at Chara for a moment shocked. "Oh, high princess I thought you... well... um..." The ghost trailed off.
Chara smiled and jumped off the boat to hug the ghost only to slightly pass through. "Oh, sorry Blooky." Chara said.
"Oh, no it's fine." Napstablook said with a smile. "I missed you." He said sounding somewhat happy.
"Did Grillby tell you what's going on?" Chara asked.
Napstablook nodded. "Yes but what about the Human, oh I meant the one that was hurting everyone not you! I'm so sorry for saying it like that, I know not all humans are mean but..." Napstablook slowly trailed off slowly becoming more transparent.
"It's fine Blooky and they're dead." Chara said as she turned from the ghost her eyes glowing red for a moment before she took a deep breath. "Anyway do you want to come to the surface with me?" She asked.
Napstablook nodded. "Yeah, not sure what I'll do but I guess I could go." He said. "I've got all my things with me so I'm ready." He said as he floated over to a pack with his music and other equipment in it bag.
"Well Let's go." She said as she got back on the boat with Grillby sitting next to her. Napstablook boarded as well nodding to the River Person.
River Person guided Marbel away from the dock slowly till she was away and then the boat shot forward quickly skimming the water as it happily barked. Chara laughed and Napstablook smiled while Grillby froze in silent terror. "Beware the Man Who Speaks in Hands, Tralalala" River Person said happily.
"You know it's rude to speak of someone like that. 👎︎❒︎📬︎ ☝︎♋︎⬧︎⧫︎♏︎❒︎ was a good man, he may have made mistakes but at least he tried to fix them." Chara said grumpily.
"A shadow Watches through there screen waiting to strike again, Tralalala" The River Person said as they turned to Chara.
"Cheeky ass." Chara muttered before the implications sunk in after it did she decided it was a good time to curled up and join Grillby in silent terror.
The rest of the trip was quiet till they reached the dock and Grillby jumped onto the dock quickly. "I hate water." He grumbled.
Chara chuckled before turning to the River person. "So how do we get Marbel out of... the... water...?" Charas voice drifted off as she stared in shock as the boat raised itself out of the water on four legs. "What?!" She asked in shock.
"Marbel is part boat part dog young princess." River person explained as Marbel exited the water and changed in to a giant dog, River Person sitting on their back. Marbel licked Charas face as it wagged it's tail happily.
The drool broke Chara out off her shock and she shook her head. "Right, okay, so let's go she said as she turned and they entered MTT Resort. Chara called the Elevator and the group entered taking it up to the Judgement Hall. As the doors opened the group looked in shock at the damaged corridor however everyone eyes eventually fell upon the pile of dust with pink slippers and a pair of black shorts.
Grillby slowly walked forward and looked at them before bowing his head. "Rest in peace old friend." He said sadly.
"I'll fix this Grillby, it may take a while but I will fix it, I promise." Chara said.
Grillby chuckled. "Alright, you and Sans hated making promises but when you did you then nothing would stop you from keeping it." He said as he turned to Chara. "So, let's go see the surface."
Chara nodded and the group walked into the throne room where they saw the Dust of the King. "The surface is through that door." Chara said as she pointed to a doorway on the other side of the room. "If you could give me a moment." She said as she approached the Kings remains. The group hesitated but slowly they exited the room as Chara sat before the dust. "Hey dad, I'm so sorry." She said as she sat crying. For a moment she did nothing till she heard someone enter the room. Chara didn't look to see who it was she simply sat there staring at the dust and cried.
The person said nothing for a while they simply stood by and waited. Once Chara began to calm down the figure approached her. "Your Father was perhaps the greatest Monster but it wasn't his power that made him great, it his character and the virtues he stood for." Grillby said as he placed a hand on Charas shoulder. Chara turned and hugged him small hissing sounds coming from where her tears touched him.

He was indeed a great Monster, far better than I ever was. A shaky voice said causing Chara to freeze and turn to the speaker in surprise.
"Gaster!" Grillby gasped in shock.

Princess, While finding my old lab and reviving monsters still takes Priority I would like for you to look at the device Sans created. If you can get it to work then it will accelerate or efforts greatly. The doctor said.
"I will look in to it but not today. I've had enough pain for one day and I'm drained both mentally and emotionally."
"❄︎♒︎♋︎■︎🙵 ⍓︎□︎◆︎ ❍︎⍓︎ ♎︎♏︎♋︎❒︎📬︎"
Thank you my dear. Gaster said with a smile smiled.
"❄︎♋︎🙵♏︎ ♍︎♋︎❒︎♏︎ ♑︎♋︎⬧︎⧫︎♏︎❒︎📬︎"
Take care Gaster. Chara said with a smile.
"✌︎⬧︎ ⍓︎□︎◆︎ ⬥︎♓︎⬧︎♒︎ ◻︎❒︎♓︎■︎♍︎♏︎⬧︎⬧︎📬︎"
As you wish Princess. Gaster said teasingly as he faded away.
Chara took a deep breath before turning to Grillby who was staring at her shocked. "What is it?" She asked.
"During the Conversation you began to speak in Wingdings." Grillby said concerned.
Chara froze as she herd this. "Tha-but-I..." Chara groaned. "worry about that later." she muttered as she looked at Grillby. "Tell no one of this." She said.
"Why, is this a problem?" Grillby asked his concern growing. Chara glared at him harder and he sighed. "Very well, I will not tell."
Chara sighed. "Thank you." She said and smiled. "Come on, I bet the others are waiting." She said as she turned and left Grillby turned and looked back at the dust of King Asgore before.
"Do not worry My king, until the time you return I shall watch over your daughter and son. I pray you rest easier knowing I am watching them." He said as he turned and excited the room as well.
Calmly he followed Chara to the entrance of the cave and as he excited he gasped as he saw he sun setting over the horizon. "To feel the warmth of the sun's light upon me again is a dream I have long missed." The River person said with a happy tone,Marbel barking what sounded like an agreement.
"It is nice." Napstablook said with a smile.
"See that forest in the distance?" Chara asked as she pointed outward. "At the heart of that forest lies a castle, that is where we are going." She said.
"Going?" Grillby asked confused. "How will we get there?"
Chara smiled. "I know a short cut." She said as she snapped her fingers and the world faded away.
