18TH STAR CONSTELLATION: [ ̶H̶]ATE/BLACK SOUL [FOUR]

CHAPTER 51: BRIEFING

Papyrus' POV

Dad isn't back yet.

I wonder what happened to him.

Chara: Papyrus, focus.

Papyrus: YES, I'M LISTENING.

Chara: Oh yeah? What was Undyne talking about?

Papyrus: UMM...

Undyne: I was explaining that you're going to defend this area right here, Papyrus.

She pointed at a specific area at the map.

Papyrus: OH YEAH! THAT...

Undyne: *Sigh* Just... don't doze off on me, okay?

Papyrus: YES MA'AM!

I saluted to Undyne.

This new thing in the army is a cool thing, the salute I mean.

Chara: Can we please continue? I want to fight something.

Undyne looks at Chara confusingly.

Undyne: Why are you here again? This is only for people with badges, you know.

Chara: What? What do you mean?

Undyne: I said you should act like a princess since you're one anyway. Also, you shouldn't be fighting on the battlefield.

Chara: I fought Betty.

Undyne: *Groans* Fine! I'm not going to be responsible to whatever happens to you, okay?

Chara nodded at a lightning speed with her pupils going red.

Chara: Also, I'm a girl, hence the title princess.

Papyrus: SO BOTH OF YOU ARE FRIENDS NOW?

Chara and Undyne looks at me.

Chara/Undyne: Whatever./We are, you punk!

Papyrus: OKAY. CONTINUE WITH THE PLAN, UNDYNE.

Undyne: As I was saying...

Timeskip

Undyne: And that's the plan, capiche?

Chara nodded, but me on the other hand...

Undyne: You don't understand this, do you Papyrus?

Papyrus: CAN YOU EXPLAIN IT ONE MORE TIME?

Undyne: Alright, fine. Papyrus is going to defend the south area of the city, Chara is going to defend the northwest, and me on the northeast. The "Glitches" as you called them are going to attack the city in a Y formation. But of course, you're not going to do this alone.

Chara: Wait, we have people in here?

Undyne: Of course, why would I want to send the princess on the battlefield alone, huh?

Chara: I can't argue with that.

Papyrus: OOH, WE'RE GOING TO MEET NEW PEOPLE.

Undyne just stares at me with a blank expression.

Undyne: Yes, Papyrus. Now dismiss.

Meanwhile, with Gaster and Frolic...

Frolic's POV

Gaster: Give up now. You already reset the timeline 8 times. If you keep this up, then the whole timeline and the universe might collapse on itself.

*You said, "Then so be it.".

Gaster: Stubborn child. You don't even know the gravity of the situation here. On what will happen with our universe.

*You said, "I don't care about the consequences as long as I get something in return.".
