Anyway, this is an AU where Asgore decided to spare Frisk and Flowey becomes comatose. Clover sacrifices their soul to save a family. Meanwhile...
Here's the story if you didn't want to click on the download for the docx.
___________
Concept: UTY AU from the perspective of a military veteran investigating the disappearances of the eight human children last sighted near or at the base of Mt. Ebott.
After having completed her eight years of service, she goes home to find her younger sibling had disappeared. As she inevitably finds and descends the entrance to the underground, PTSD surfaces. This soldier has seen the worst of humanity, and battles the sins of her past actions.
Chapter 1
Chujin adjusted his glasses and hit record.
"This is Chujin. I'm back from the dead. I'm not sure how or why, but from what I could gather, my wife acquired a human soul in the time I was gone. To be alive again is... strange to say the least. It has led to some interesting... developments.
"Ceroba had injected our only child with the serum I had concocted, and she fell down. Despite the grief she suffered, Kanako managed to come back from the brink as well. I'm still not sure what effect the human had on her, but her soul is undamaged. I'd have to run some tests to check her status soon. I voiced my frustrations at Ceroba for going against my wishes, but for now I'm just glad Kanako's alright."
Chujin put his hands together. How was he even supposed to word the next surprise that awaited him when he woke?
"There's more. I'm just not sure how to... process it into words. I appear to have another kid now, but I don't know how he came to be. He may have the same genetics as Kanako, but I've never had more than one offspring. His soul is white and carries the boss monster gene, but it is oriented in the same position a human's would be. By all accounts, this doesn't make sense. To make it more puzzling, he appears to be around Kanako's age as well.
"I know I shouldn't place doubt in my family's actions, but this doesn't change my stance on humanity. If one human soul can accomplish this, what other unspeakable things could they do when still alive? I'm not sure I want to know the answer."
He hit stop and rubbed his cheek. This was going to be a rough day.
…
"What is your purpose, Sunshine?!" the drill instructor berated. "What is the purpose of your enlistment?!"
The waves splashed up and into her face. "I-I..." she managed between push-ups. This didn't seem to satisfy the overbearing presence looming over her.
"I ASKED YOU A QUESTION, PRIVATE! WHAT IS YOUR PURPOSE?!" he barked, unrelenting. "PULL YOUR HEAD OUT OF YOUR ASS AND SPEAK, DAMNIT!"
She shook her head and got up. That flashback was from boot camp. The moment that would stick with her for the rest of her days.
What is your purpose? she mouthed to herself.
She needed to grip the world and steady things after her fall. Her second fall, and in the same day too. The ruins were already desolate above her, but the deep caverns she stumbled into were completely void of discernable life. Not like she encountered anyone above her, but sounds of activity could be heard. Here it was silent.
She cursed herself for letting go of her combat rifle during the fall. She'd dropped it in an effort to grab onto her surroundings. Anything that could help stabilize her descent.
Looking back up now, she could see the stock sticking out from the ledge. So close, but climbing to get back up would be an inefficient use of her strength. She had to leave it behind and keep going forward. Besides, she has her combat knife, so she wasn't completely unarmed.
Ava un-sheathed said knife and kept moving. Her steps were precise and alert. She wasn't taking any chances in an unfamiliar territory. She heard rumors that Mount Ebott was home to horrifying beasts capable of tearing you apart. The fact that eight children seemingly just disappeared held credence to that.
Her eyebrows narrowed. She just hoped that her brother managed to tough it out until she found him. She knew he would. "Tough" was a great description for the kid. Even if it took years...
Despite her confidence in him, something cold kept holding her thoughts from going away. It had been a week since she was discharged, but Ava was trained in the art of suppressing one's thoughts and emotions. Not everything can be held down forever, and even if it wasn't the overwhelming feeling of regret haunting her, she still felt a presence watching her.
Puzzles littered the halls where she walked. The same had been true for the hallway she fell through. Mayhaps a way to delay her progress? Strange. Was someone expecting her? Stranger yet, the difference here was that these ones seemed to have already been solved.
She hated how quiet it was. She knew someone was nearby, but whoever or whatever they were, they stayed distant. Ava quickened her pace and pushed that prospect to the back of her mind. Best to not get distracted.
The next room she entered made that a little difficult for her. Upon taking her first steps, she found herself in the middle of... corn? With how little lighting illuminated the place, it was astounding plant life could sustain itself down here.
Cautiously, she took an ear and sniffed it. The corn smelled oddly sweet. This piqued her curiosity and she partially shucked a cob. One bite couldn't hurt, right?
The juices ran across her jaw as the muscles connecting them squeezed. It was... delicious. The feeling of being watched took a backburner as she embraced a sense of nostalgia.
Another flashback? No. Just a vague feeling of what once was.
She had more important tasks to finish before she would allow herself to reminisce. The first being getting through here, and seeing how there was no sign of anyone around, Ava allowed her shoulders to relax. The atmosphere wasn't going to hold her back, even if it wanted to.
…
After about twenty minutes of unimpeded search, the soldier found a light coming through a doorway at the end of a tunnel. The only thing of note from then was a house built into the structure of the ruins, but it was synonymous with what she encountered so far in that it was uninhabited.
If nothing else, the way the light crept in the door in front of her held promise. Pushing the heavy door open revealed an odd phenomenon to her. Just on the other side sat an underground forest... and it was snowing.
From a physics perspective, this was possible. NASA performed a study on if a building was big enough, it could give means to its own internal weather. That being said, this was still super bizarre.
Ava cautiously took a step into the snow. It definitely crunched like snow, so that's a good sign her vision wasn't failing. The sudden temperature drop caught her off guard though.
She came with little gear, often preferring to travel light. Part of Ava's time in the military had her live in places that were similar to Alaskan winter climates, so this was nothing new to her. If she needed to start a fire to keep warm, she had the resources to do so.
Regardless, it would be a good idea to get moving. The snow was rather humid and falling slowly, but that didn't mean it wouldn't change up on a dime.
She trudged through the snow until she came across a large rock with a strange carving engraved in the side. A dot with wings above three triangles. Perhaps something religious? Ava was never a religious person for... reasons she kept to herself, but she humored the rock and closed her eyes to remind herself why she was here.
Having endured the fall and making it out unscathed reminds you of your PURPOSE.

Thanks for reading. Let me know if there's any mistakes. Keep in mind this is an AU so the canonisity is going to be in question.
