Frisk's POV
I had messed with the data, trying anything and everything to try to get Asriel back. Nothing had worked. SAVEing everyone? No. That only allowed me to see him before he turned back into a flower. Genocide? No. I nearly killed the one I wanted to SAVE. This would probably be the last RESET, so I hoped I had messed with the Data enough to save my brother.
I walked to the clearing to find that Flowey was there. "You're not really Chara, are you? Or maybe you are…all I know is that you didn't kill me. Well, Mom's coming. Better get through this run as soon as possible Chara." I sighed and shook my head, he'd never stop doing that would he?
It was normal through the Ruins of "Home," but something felt…off. Toriel seemed to be more clingy, but not in her usual sense. Something about not wanting to leave me alone…but for fear of her own safty rather than my own. The house play throughs were the same until the fight. I didn't move. "I cannot allow you to pass through!" She shouted as the sent attacks at me. At 2 HP I still stood, but her attacks activly went through their patterns and before I could register it, she killed me.
LOAD
"I cannot allow you to pass through!" This was…different. Toriel winced instead of looking horrified. And her attacks didn't try to not hit me. I looked at her eyes, something was recollecting. Did she know what I did in the past timeline? Is that what I did? I didn't think that was possible, but after messing with the Universe's RESET data…who knows what I did?
I went through the fight more carefully and ran through the forest, surprised on not meeting Sans behind me, but at his station. Papyrus also greeted me the same but…
Papyrus seemed to act different. A bit more nervous. But after seeing Toriel's eyes, I knew what had happened. Their memories from all the timelines were now inside of them, and they were clinging onto the memories of the Genocide run. The stupid, stupid Genocide…I wanted to scream, "I just wanted to SAVE Asriel! I wasn't thinking strait!" Hah…they'd never believe that.
Everyone was a bit more wary, but had similar interactions as they usually did. At the end of my journey, I didn't go back with Toriel, nor become the monster's ambassador.

Narrotor POV
In a cabin in the woods, Fransiska "Frisk" Elerose Serakhi, had learned magic, bringing her hand to above her left eye, and whispered an incantation. She smiled gravely as a wound opened up and began to let blood flow, sealing her left eye shut. "One year…One year and this skin I will have shed." She made sure there was a way to break the curse, as was with all curses. But it would never happen. The only way for that to happen, was for 6 individuals forgive her for her actions in a past timeline…
