Xcom 2 Story Part 8: Two Worlds Combined


Chapter 1: Humans From Another World
   After a long, boring day of patrolling around and dealing with stupid Advent troopers, it was finally time to get some dame sleep. But as Papyrus and I were getting ready to go to sleep, I noticed something outside the window. It looked like a human spying on us, but regardless of that I grabbed a old newspaper and rolled it up. As I got closer to the widow, I almost throw it newpaper outside, hitting the human in the arm. 
   “OW! What the hell Sans?” A female voice shouted at me. Before long Frisk, or what I thought was him, walked into the light. I let him in and soon noticed that maybe it wasn't Frisk, or the Frisk I know at least. 
   “Oh, hello human! I guess Sans did not recognize you in the dark.” Papyrus walked up. 
   *“He kinda looks different, maybe it’s his hood.” I commented. Suddenly, the human’s expression looked offended. 
   “Excuse you! Maybe you have not noticed, but last time I cheeked I’ma Girl!” The human shouted.
   *“I think you found the wrong skeletons…” I said, then suddenly another figure appeared behind the human. 
    “What? What do you mean by that? Where am I?” The human looked confused.
   *“Welcome to the overworld, and who’s that behind you?” I asked, suddenly the human jumped and so did the other human. 
   “Ugh… hello?” the second human asked. 
   *“Yeah, hi… listen we are the original skeletons, you're skeletons are in the other corridor.” I replied, pointing down the hall. 
   “Ok.. well I’m Chara from the AU of Underfell, you already meet Frisk.” Fell Chara said as Fell Frisk took off her hood, revealing longer hair than Classic Frisk. They also looked a little taller than the other humans, but I was too busy wondering how Fell Chara was even still alive since Classic Chara died long ago. 
   “Hello… other humans! I am the great Papyrus! Well, the original one at least. The Sans and Papyrus you know are right down the hall, in the room on the right I believe.” Papyrus explained as I just kept a sharp eye socket on Fell Chara. She rolled her eyes as Fell Frisk tried to make sense of everything. 
   “Wait… original? You mean that Chara and I somehow got teleported here? Ugh… I’m getting a headache!” Fell Frisk muttered, holding her head. 
   “That is true, I guess… you're skeletons arrived a while ago.” Papyrus confirmed. 
   *“Anyway, witch one of you is the evil one?” I asked, and Chara did a wide eyed face, similar to Classic Chara. 
   “Funny you should ask.” Fell Chara smiled as Fell Frisk pulled her back. 
   *“Some things never change between worlds I guess.” I smiled back at Fell Chara, eye glowing. 
   “Anyway, you should meet our Frisk sometime, he’s a lot like you… but just less talkative, and also male in gender.” Papyrus lit up. Fell Chara’s face went back to normal and Fell Frisk relaxed as well. 
   “That’s a great idea! What about Classic Chara?” Fell Frisk asked. 
   “Right where he belongs, buried under six feet of dirt somewhere in the underground.” I replied as Fell Chara froze and gave me a bit of a death glare. 


Chapter 2: Plan “B”
   *“What? You're not as nice as our Chara, sorry if I’m a bit on edge with another one around!” I spat at Fell Chara. She just kept staring at me as I head Fell Sans walk out of his quarters. 
   *“Hey, what’s going on out here!? I’m trying to sle- wait…” Fell Sans froze as he figured out what was happening. 
   “Sans!” Fell Frisk smiled and she ran at Fell Sans, giving his massive hug. Papyrus laughed and went to sleep. As Fell Frisk and Sans were busy catching up, I used this to get some info outta Fell Chara. I looked back and saw she was trying to leave out the door, but I shortcutted in front of her, blocking the door behind me.
   *“So, how did you live so long, huh? Our Chara died long ago…” I ashed, eyes going dark. Fell Chara just laughed, smiled and her eyes went wide. 
   “Why do you care so much?” She replied. 
   *“Just my curiosity” I snapped. 
   “Haven't you heard? Curiosity kills!” Fell Chara snapped back. 
   *“Maybeventually!” I winked. *“Now, just answer the question!” I added. 
   “Oh, I guess I’m just smarter than Classic Chara was.” Fell Chara snapped back. I swear I was about to attack, but then I heard laughter coming from behind fell Chara and saw that Fell Sans and Frisk was almost done, I had to end this little chat quick. 
   *“Whatever! Just don’t try to destroy this world and, and maybe I might spare you from a bad time.” I warned. Fell Chara just laughed, shoved me aside and walked through the door, I could still hear her demonic laughter outside. 
   “Oh boy, I new world, I new opportunity! I wonder who I’m going to kill first!” Her voice echoed in my ears. I felt a familiar feeling return and rolled my eyes as they went back to normal. 
   *“Watch your back kid! “ I shouted… Fell Chara just stopped in her tracks, drew her knife, and threw it at me. It landed in the wall with a loud SHINK sound. I looked at it and noticed it had the name PAPYRUS written in dried out blood on the blade. I shook my head and used my powers to take it out of the wall and toss it back at Fell Chara, who caught it mid air and turned to look at me, eyes still wide. 
   “See you in you nightmares, bonehead!” Is all she said before disappearing into the forest. I tried to get the image of the knife, and the name on it, out of my head as Fell Sans and Frisk came back, smiles on both their faces. 
   *“Hey, Classic, wer’d you find Frisk and Chara at? I was wondering if they made if for so long these past few weeks.” Fell Sans asked.
   *“I don’t know, they just showed up… how did you get here, Fell Frisk?” I asked.
   “I don’t know… it all happened so fast… I don’t really remember too well.” Fell Frisk responded. 
   *“Agh, give yourself a day or two, you’ll remember in no time, I’m sure of it. But for now, you should get some rest. There's a guest quarters down the all, next to mine and Fell Pap’s, when you're ready I can show you.” fell Sans explained. 
   “Before she does that, I still need to talk to her, but I’ll get her to bed after we are done.” I offered. Fell Sans shrugged his agreement, and went back to his own room. After I knew he was out of ear range, I went to ask fell Frisk something when Fell Frisk suddenly started to struggle, holding her head and stumbling back a few steps.  
   “Whoa, you alright?” I asked, but I had a feeling that I already new the answer to that. 
   “Yeah, it’s just Fell Chara trying to take control again, I’ve learned to fight it though. But before I could respond, Fell Chara appeared behind Fell Frisk again, but this time threw her side, drew her knife and went into her full-on creepy face. 
   “Why can’t you just do what I tell you!” Fell Chara screamed at fell Frisk and charged at me, doing Chara’s thing. I Shortcutted behind her and pumped her  with a barrage of bone attacks. She died and her body disappeared, but the reset start flashed in my face and before long, she reappeared. “Don’t think you can get rid of me that easy!” She added. Out of habit, I grabbed Fell Frisk by her arm and shortcutted us both into a clearing in the forest. I helped Fell Frisk up and we heard Fell Chara laughing somewhere in the forest behind us. 
   *“By Asgore, here we go again… you alright?” I asked Fell Frisk. 
   “Yeah… I’m fine… but Chara has not acted like this since be both arrived in this world…” Fell Frisk replied in between breaths. 
   *“You just had to bring her with you??” I asked, and I admit it did sound a little harsh. 
   “I’m sorry! But you should know how this works! Wherever I go Chara follows, we are kinda connected in paths you know!” Fell Frisk explained. 
   *“So, then I have to kill you you make her stop?” I suddenly jumped to a plan. Yes, I admit it was kinda harsh to jump to that, but it’s just how I’m used to getting things done. 
   “WHAT?! NO! It’s just… she’s been so nice since arriving here… I guess seeing another Sans sparked her old memories! There has to be another way! I don’t want anyone getting hurt!” Fell Frisk almost looked offended, but I tried to think of something else… then it hit me.
   *“Ok… did you're Asriel and Chara get along?” I asked.
   “Well, I guess they did, as well as any other siblings did.” Fell Frisk pulled out a photo from her pocket, and it was a selfie of Fell Chara and a older looking Asriel. The both had happy expression on their faces. 
   *“Ok… the reason I brought him up is that our Asriel and Chara got along super, so maybe if Fell Chara saw him again, it could calm her down.” I explained. 
   “Well, better then you murdering both of us.” Fell Frisk agreed. 
   *“Alright, stay here, I’ll bring him here. And for the love Asgore, do NOT approach Chara if you see her, just stay out of sight.” I told Fell Frisk. She nodded. I snapped my finger and in a flash of light, I was at the monster settlement where all monsters, at least the original world ones, were hiding out. * approached the door and knocked a few times. What left like half an hour later, the door opened and Toriel was standing there.
   “Sans? What are you doing here this late?” Toriel asked, a look of worry on her face. 
   *“Listen, long story, there's a problem and I think Asriel maybe the answer to it.” I explained. 
   “Whatever for? You know it’s dangerous out their!” Toriel rejected. 
   *“Alright, listen, remember when I told you about Underfell sans and Papyrus? Well, looks like Underfell Chara and Frisk made it here too, and Chara is going insane! However, Fell Frisk agrees that if she sees Asriel, even if it’s from another world.” I explained again. 
   “That seems dangerous… and she? I thought Frisk and Chara are boys…” Toriel looked confused. 
   *“Apparently, in Underfell, they are Girls… half the world thinks there genderless anyway! But bringing Asriel to the Blacksite is better then killing both Fell Frisk and Chara.” I replied. 
   “I guess you're right… but I’ll let him go only if Fisk goes with him, I still do not trust him going alone.” Toriel said.
   *“Fair enough, just please hurry! Fell Chara is still roaming around and I left Fell Frisk alone for too long already.” I agreed, Toriel went inside the house and a few minutes later Frisk and Asriel walked outside, followed by Toriel. 
   “Be safe, children!” The kids nodded and Toriel went back inside the house and the door closed. 
   “What’s up, Sans?” Asriel asked. 
   *“Long story short, another version of Chara is going insane and I think you can calm her down. Got it?” I replied. Asriel nodded as Frisk made his concerned look. I snapped my fingers again and we were back with Fell Frisk in no time. 


Chapter 3: The Agreement 
   “Oh, you're back… thank god. Anyway, we ready to go?” fell Frisk asked, looking nerves.
   “Yes, I heard that you are having problems with your world’s Chara, correct?” Asriel walked up. Frisk just kelp his blank expression, like he always does. 
   “Yeah, ever since we got to this world she’s been quite calm, but I guess seeing another Sans sparked her original emotions. 
   “Well, I used to get along with Classic Chara very well… until you know what happened… so hopefully if she shares any emotions as Classic Chara did, seeing me will calm her down.” Asriel explained. Suddenly Classic Frisk’s changed to a scared expression as he turned Fell Frisk around and pointed to the trees. Silhouetted by the light of the moon, Fell Chara was standing there, knife in hand. 
   “Well Asriel… now’s the time to try…” Fell Frisk muttered as Asriel took a deep breath and stepped forward in front of everyone. Fell Chara also took a step forward, now visible. 
   “Hello Chara.” Asriel said. I could see his hands shaking at his sides. Fell Chara was about to attack, but she froze as she saw Asriel. 
   “A...Asriel?” She muttered as her face went back to normal, dropping her knife. 
   “It’s good to see you alive again, even if it is from another world…” Asriel smiled as Fell Chara ran at him, tearing up as she game him a big hug. Both Frisk’s heaved a sigh of relief. I myself also relaxed. 
   *“That was close…” I muttred. After Fell Chara let Asriel go, she looked at me.
   “Sans I...ugh…” She still had tears in her eyes.
   *“It’s ok, kiddo… we all ma-” I myself was cut off by Fell Chara giving me a hug as well. 
   “Well, my work here is done.” Asriel said. Fell Frisk stood in front of Classic Frisk as I was still trying to get fell Chara to un-hug me.
   “You look a lot shorter then me in this world.” Fell Frisk commented. 
   “Gee, thanks for noticing…” Classic Frisk rolled his eyes. Fell Frisk laughed under her breath. Finally I got Fell Chara off of me, this was a nice happy moment, for once. 
   *“Alright, so this is all nice and happy, but I’m now getting the idea that the Blacksite will not be safe for you two. Maybe you should go back to the monster settlement and live with Tori and Asgore, they will take good care of you there.” I explained. 
   “Awww… I wanna stay with Fell Sans!” Fell Frisk said.
   “And I could maybe use my power… whatever it’s called… for good!” Fell Chara looked at me straight in the eye. I pulled Fell Frisk aside out of earshot of Fell Chara.
   *“I don’t want to risk another one of Chara’s freakouts if we ever get attacked.” I explained.
   “I get that, but at least give her a change! She could use this to kinda like prove to herself that she’s not just a monster! Chara needs this!” Fell Frisk countered. I sighed and brought us back into the group. 
   *“Alright, how about this, if you guys stay at the monster settlement for at least a few months to get used to this world, then I might consider letting you live at the Blacksite.” I offered. Fell Frisk rolled her eyes.
   “Fine… I guess that’s fair.” She muttred.
   “If Frisk is fine with it, then I will not get in the way.” Fell Chara agreed. 
   “Awesome! Mom will love having you guys around the house to help!” Asriel lit up. 
   *“Anyway, let’s just all head back to the settlement, huh?” I snapped my fingered and we were all back at Tori’s house… and let me tell ya, this was not how I was expecting to spend my night. 


Chapter 4: So… Much… PIE!
   A flash and thud later, we were all at Toriel’s home in the Monster Settlement. We all kinda just stood there… awkwardly for a few moments. 
   “So…. do we like… knock...or something…?” Fell Chara asked.
   *“Sure.” I replied, walking up to the door and knocking it twice. A couple minutes later, both Toriel and Asgore appear as the door creeks open.
   “So, San, children! So glad you made it back safely! Please, come in. Ans Sans, please give me a better explanation to why you had to take Frisk and Asriel outside?” Toriel was about to let everyone in, but Fell Frisk and Chara walked to the front of the group.  
   “Why not you just as us yourself?” fell Frisk smiled, and I could see tears running down Toriel’s face. Toriel kneeled over and instantly game Fell Frisk a hug, now both of them tearing up. Meanwhile, Asgore and Fell Chara were just staring at eachother for a few moments.  
   “So…..” Fell Chara looked around looking a little uneasy until Asgore gave her a fig bear - er, goat hug. This was a heartwarming moment, seeing Asgore and Toriel react to seeing Chara actually alive, even if it maybe from another world.
   *“They must be really happy to see you two, ever since Classic Chara… ya know… went under. To put it nicely.” I laughed a bit, both Classic Frisk and Asriel’s faces were full of happiness two.
   “Yeah...well…*cough*...listen… a little…*cough* too tight…!” Fell Chara muttred. Asgore let her go and she caught her breath, but it soon turned to laughter as we all piled back into the house. Toriel instantly went into the kitchen to bake a pie for this special occasion. I pretty much had to stay because well, NO ONE walks into Tori’s house without staying for pie… I mean NO ONE.
   About a hour of catching up and waiting later, the pie was ready and we all crowded around the table to eat. Fell Chara immediately dug into to her slice and Fell Frisk, Classic Frisk, and Asriel both stared at her a little worried.
   “Oh, don’t worry about her, we’ve kinda been scrapped for food since we got here. She’s probably just really hungry.” Fell Frisk explained. 
   “Oh, worry not. I understand, you two poor children must of been so lost outside. Don’t worry, you both will be safe here.” Toriel replied. Two slices of pie later, I was feeling pretty full. 
   “Hey Sans, thanks for giving us a second change… but I guess you should really head back to the Blacksite now.” Fell Frisk muttered through bites of pie. I was about to get up, but froze as Toriel stopped me. 
   “Before he leaves, he will have another slice of pie!” Toriel said… I started to sweat, but accepted the slice anyway. 
   “But… he looks full… ma-” Fell Chara was about to say something, but Classic Frisk jabbed her side. “Oh… well, I tried Sans.” She added. Suddenly, there was a loud CRASH from living room. Toriel quickly ran off to cheek what happened, and I used this to make my “escape”.
   “Bye Sans!” Fell Frisk waved.
   “Later, Lazybones!” Fell Chara smiled, but in a nice way this time. I gave everyone at the table a wave myself as I shortcutted my way back to the Blacksite where Fell Sans was pacing the courtyard. When he saw that I returned, he approached, clearly concerned. 
   *“Ok, what happened? Where'd they go? Are they safe?” Fell Sans hit me with a bunch of questions. 
   *“Calm down pal, both Fell Frisk and Chara have agreed to live at the monster settlement until they get used to this world, after a few months they can move here.” I explained.
   *“Ok… so they are safe, right?” Fell Sans asked again. 
   *“Yes, Toriel and Asgore are responsible parents in this world… regardless of almost losing two children in one night.” I explained again. 
   “Well, at least that’s good to hear. I can rest easy now.” Fell Sans breathed a sigh of relief. I can now see how much Fell Sans really cares about the humans… but regardless of that, I went back to me quarters to finally get some dame sleep. But I have a feeling this madness regarding Underfell has only just begun.
