Chapter 4 - [03] Prince

Today was the day, all of monsterkind reunited at the capital to assist in the grand return of the prince Asriel Dreemurr.

"Azzy wake up!!!". I jumped at him while he was still in bed and immediately woke him up.

"Frisk get off me!". He rejected my embrace and threw me to the ground. A loud sound echoed through the house making mom enter the room.

"Asriel what did I tell you about throwing Frisk to the ground?".

"Sorry mom, it was an accident". I stuck out my tongue while Toriel reprimanded Asriel about his behavior. Soon we went to have a picnic with the whole family. 

The moment dad saw Asriel, he hugged him with strength making him try his hardest to avoid passing out. The others arrived quite quickly, Undyne and Alphy's arrived together. Undyne was energetic as always while the latter looked quite exhausted. She had been working nonstop to find a solution to Asriel's situation.

The next to arrive was Papyrus, he wasn't wearing his battle armour as he deemed today as a peaceful day.

"FLOWERY, YOU REALLY HAVE CHANGED!". Papyrus noticed right away Asriel's change and started chatting with him.

"It's Flowey you pack of bones".

"Asriel!".

We all started chatting and waiting for the last member to arrive.

"Papyrus where's Sans?".

"I DON'T KNOW, HE SAID HE WOULD ARRIVE ON TIME".

Just as we were talking about him my heart suddenly dropped as a gaster blaster spawned in front of me. But when it fired, confetti flew everywhere. 

"did I get ya". 

Sans finally made an appearance as I recovered from the shock.

He was wearing a t-shirt with drawings of bones and on top of that he wore a dark blue jacket. His usual black shorts were still present, but he replaced his slippers with white shoes. He looked slightly more formal than usual, just slightly.

"Smiley trashbag has finally appeared". Asriel immediately went for the attack beginning their usual trash talking.

"hmm? seems that the weed has finally grown arms".

"Wanna test what this arms can do?".

"nah, I would never hurt an innocent child". Sans smile grew a little bit as an ominous air surrounded us.

"I never thought you were such a good person, it almost makes me wanna puke". 

"you're the one to talk little weed". the next moment Toriel grabbed Asriel by his ear and told him to shut it. I giggled a bit as me and Papyrus analyzed their beef.

It seemed everyone was having a great time. I couldn't help but smile at this timeline. Then I had curiosity about Asriel's stats, and so I decided to take a look at them.

I immediately felt guilty as I saw Asriel's stats without him knowing. 

'I didn't expect him to be someone strong'. Out of nowhere Chara spoke, I felt surprised as she hadn't talked to me in ages.

'How you're doing Chara?'. I immediately tried to start a conversation but I was met with the silence treatment. I sighed frustrated as she Ignored me.

'You can't avoid me forever'.

'I can, and I will'.

The last thing I heard from her was laughter.

On the afternoon, the celebration of Azzy's return began. With a crown and fancy clothes, he really looked like a prince. Looking at the crowd, a massive number of monster's where present and even a lot of humans attended. The ones who stood out being the royal family members and heirs of mage families.

As the monster's ambassador I gave a little speech alongside Asgore and Toriel, they really were the heart of monsterkind. The time passed slowly as everyone was ecstatic and celebrating. These times I wonder what being a monster feels like.

Monsters unlike humans have a heightened sense of empathy making them strongly connected to each other. All that joy from monsterkind was thanks to Azzy. Looking at him he had a serene expression on his face. After gaining a 'soul' again, Alphy's told me that she wasn't sure if Azzy could feel emotions again. I even asked him directly but he never answered.

Still looking at him he seemed to notice my mood.

"I'm fine Frisk, it even feels nice not being a flower again". Not knowing if this was a truth or a lie, I decided to continue.

***

The celebration continued as teenagers our age that were deemed talented were permitted to take a photo with me and Azzy. Each one was exited to meet us and they were really nice, both humans and monsters.

I couldn't control my curiosity as I started *Analyzing everyone and admiring their stats and descriptions. 

"My turn~". A peculiar kid emerged from the crowd

She was fairly short, even a bit shorter than me, who was brutally roasted by Azzy for being a 1 53. she had bright purple hair and two black eyes devoid of any light, her skin was a bit pale and she was smiling broadly.

"It's an honor for me to be here". She said that while preparing for a handshake.

"The honor is ours, it's amazing to get to know so many talented people".

As my hand met his I was slightly electrocuted. She started giggling a bit before taking off her glove. I was in shock as she never had a glove before, I still didn't understand what trick she used but I felt intrigued about her.

"Haha! I'm sorry ambassador but I couldn't let this pranking opportunity go to waste! The name's Dalya Declan".

"We already have enough clowns home, keep the show to yourself you little dwarf". Azzy was truly diabolical.

"Oh I get it! You're the edgelord type". As Asriel got himself caught in another verbal fight I made my mind up and decided to peek at her stats.

I frowned a bit as I looked at the glitched information, it seems she's a mystery i'll need to uncover. This world truly had more mysteries than I thought. While Dalya and Azzy kept going back and forth I looked at the entire place. I felt happy, a lot happier than when I endlessly reset for a perfect ending. As a familiar light came to me I decided to keep moving forward.

[Saved]

Then I caught a glimpse of two people, a lot of people were around them and when I looked at the perpetrators of the scene I saw Caeli Celeste, the heir of a wealthy family of mages, and right in front of her was...

an Asriel clone?

|Zen's P.O.V|

Today was the day, all of monsterkind reunited at the capital to assist in the grand return of the prince Asriel Dreemurr.

"Zen wake up!!". As Lyanna woke me up I mentally prepared for today. In the future I'll have many interactions with powerful and prestigious people, today is just the start. Asriel's return isn't just a great festival for monsterkind, it's also a political event.

Humanity's most important figures will appear there to consolidate their relation between the two races. The world has started noticing me as my grades are immaculate and all my teachers are sending recomendations everywhere.

Attention isn't bad, if I prove my worth my chances of getting enrolled to the New Gen Academy.

 The orphanage began a trip to Newest Home by bus and all the kids started chatting without end. I spent the whole time getting owned in videogames by the other kids.

"Zen, you're trash at videogames". Even Lyanna started trash talking to me, eventually I ragequitted and slept.

|Prepare for Zen's first interaction with the anomaly and other peculiar characters |
