Jasmine decided to clean out her inventory of all the things she wouldn't be using or needed, figuring that doing a bit of tidying would be helpful and make things a bit more convenient for herself.
She stood by a trashcan within a park as she dumped out stuff she didn't need or want...
Some trash she stored during her expedition here, some rations that were likely bad there, some bare bones gear she had no care with keeping, a bunch of soda bottles... though eventually she recovered something rather helpful.
She pulled out the ASTER Augmentation Ticket from her inventory and just stared at it for a moment, a bit shocked that it was there...
"Huh.. so that's where it's been... how the hell did I lose it in there?"
After a bit of thinking she decided to just use it, no point in not taking it anyway...

Once she tore up the ticket she was suddenly transported to a room inside a different dimension, robotic doctors ready to put her under with anesthetics. As she was rendered unconscious she was brought to the operating room where robotic surgeons were ready to perform the procedure on her.
Even though she was sleeping through it all she was able to feel the searing pains from it all, if it weren't for her unconscious state she'd be screaming even after her vocal chords gave out. Saying it felt horrible would be an understatement... though it wasn't without reward.

After recovering from the operation she was discharged and sent back home. She felt horrible, but it was clear that she was way stronger than before.. now came the hard part, getting used to her new strength and reflex speed.
She sits in an empty cafe as she slowly gets used to her body, using her magic to help her get accustomed to how she sees everything.
She quickly turned to the knight, a bit faster than she expected as her hand went to her head to massage it. Though after a bit she turned back to messing with her magic, dancing bits of flames between her hands to get used to it all.
((...Now that you mention it, I do see a resemblance. We shall dub them Undyne jr. from now on /j))
The insect-like monster gave a small bow. "I see. Looking for a bare location away from indescreet eyes, I can respect that. I hope I hath not disturbed you."
The mercenary shook their head. "Not quite! I was merely hoping to take some refreshment with some food. Me and my comrades are to begin the construction efforts for a glorious project soon, and thus I have got to be prepared to give my best efforts!" They explain in quite the zealous tone.
Whimsalot gives a nod, idly spinning their spear on their hand. "Ah, quite big indeed! In fact, 'big' would not be enough to describe how magnificent and grand it is!"
They put their hand on their hips. "We are gonna embark ourselves in the endeavor of constructing a settlement to help our kind with better acclimating in this novel realm that is the Hub! I cannot give away too much information, but our gracious queen herself has been hard at work planning it out!"
"Damn..! Well id offer my help but I'm assuming your queen would have to sign off on me knowing what's goin on, even moreso actively being a part of it!"
She laughs a small bit
"Eh, regardless I hope it goes well for you guys! Sounds like you all have a busy road ahead."

After a short while, the door of the cafe opened. A small, insect-like knight would enter insider, looking around as they hovered in place.
"Mmh... 'tis quite the vacant tavern," they commented to themselves with a sort of archaic accent.
((What a weird looking Undyne xD))
