Undyne got to her feet and turned to Jasper, who had gotten up herself, and was dusting herself off.
"JASPER!"
"Yeah, fishsticks?"
Undyne was trembling, her fists clenched so tightly that had she had blood, she would have been beginning to cut off bloodflow to her fingers.
"I am Undyne, Captain of the Royal Guard. My responsibility is to protect this world! Humans, Monsters, everyone. If they are threatened, I am the one who will protect them. You killed Sans. You tried to kill me, Alphys, Frisk, and Papyrus! You said you want to mine this planet for resources? Let me tell you something, Homeworld Gem. In 100 years, when people start mining Ebbot for resources; all that iron ore is gonna be MIXED IN WITH YOUR INTERNAL ORGANS!"
Undyne opened her hand, suddenly summoning a spear made of concentrated blue energy. She hurled it at the flying, hand-shaped ship, summoned another spear, and charged Jasper, screaming in rage all the way. Her face was contorted with convulsions of rage as she finally let it all out in one attack.
Jasper smiled and clenched her fists. She stopped Undyne's charge by gripping her spear in her own hands. The two struggled against each other's strength for a few moments, neither gaining any headway, before Jasper spoke up.
"Hah! It's nice to see there's at least one real fighter on this garbage planet!"
"There were two, you murderous freak!"
"The weakling died in one shot! You call that a real warrior?"
"He died to SAVE HIS BROTHER'S LIFE! Papyrus was just trying to be nice to you!"
"I warned him! I told him I wasn't about to make friends!"
"Sans should have killed you!"
"Hmph. I'm looking forward to beating the rest of you weaklings to dust."
Undyne suddenly fell to the ground and swept with her leg, dropping Jasper to the rocky ground. She rolled forward, grabbed the Gem, and suplexed her into the dirt, hard.
Before anyone had a chance to move, they were interrupted by a massive explosion. Jasper cringed. Undyne had destroyed the ship. In one shot.
Leaping to her feet, Undyne stomped on Jasper's head and summoned another spear, putting it to her throat.
"Ha! You think you can beat us down? I think you'll find that Monsters don't break so easily! Besides, I'm obviously better than you, and you haven't even met ASGORE yet! He's five times as strong as I am!"
"Really"
"Oh yeah. You'd better make peace with what ever disgusting god you pray to, murderer."
"Well, I know at least one person five times stronger than you."
Undyne raised her spear, preparing to bring it down on Jasper's head.
"Yeah? And who's that, punk?"
"Oh, just me."
Undyne brought the spear down with full force. An instant before it impacted, a light suddenly flashed from Jasper's forehead, before solidifying into a yellow, crystal-shaped helmet, blocking the spear.
Jasper jumped to her feet, now equipped with her Crash Helmet.
"You're gonna have to try a litte-"
Undyne interrupted her sentence by punching Jasper in the chest. She successfully knocked the Gem's wind out of her, but this also caused Jasper to lean forward quickly. The Gem, experienced in combat, took the opportunity to land a headbutt, dropping Undyne like a rock. The Homeworld Gem followed up her attack by punting Undyne through the air, where she eventually landed a few dozen feet away.
Undyne leapt to her feet and hurled several spears at Jasper, who swung her head around, blocking them all with her Crash Helmet before charging Undyne, head-first. The fishy warrior attempted to throw more spears, but Jasper blocked these as easily as those that came before and hit Undyne with a titanic impact. The warrior rolled backwards, gripping her gut, before summoning another spear, smacking Jasper in her side.
The Gem fell to one knee, but not before she grabbed the spear and pulled it closer to her, bringing Undyne within helmet range. She slammed downward one more time with the helmet, and Undyne fell to her knees, seeing stars.
Jasper stood at her full height and kicked Undyne in the face, dropping her to the ground.
Picking her up, Jasper walked over to a large boulder and slammed Undyne's head into it repeatedly, before suddenly recoiling in pain, a spear stabbed into her wrist.
"DAMN IT! I'll make you pay for that!"
"Not if I make you pay for that first!"
Undyne grabbed the boulder and suplexed it just because she could, before slamming it on top of Jasper. The Gem burst out of the boulder moments later, but not without taking a spear to the torso first. She tore it out, a small wound on her chest, and kicked Undyne backwards before leaping into the air. Crouching midair as if she was trying to curl into a ball, Jasper suddenly dove downward, head-first. Her Comet Dive was too fast for Undyne to avoid, and she slammed the heroine into the ground with staggering force. Undyne tried to get to her feet after the impact, but Jasper stomped her back and forced her down.
"So, fishsticks. What were you saying about being the planet's greatest warrior? Ha! Piece of trash!"
Alphys watched this sudden turn of events with horror.
"N-NOOOOO! UNDYNE!"
"Aha! If it isn't your lizardy waifu. What a coincidence. I was about to go looking for her."
Jasper stomped Undyne several more times, until the warrior's health was critical. Finally, summoning her Crash Helmet once more, Jasper slammed downward on Undyne's skull. She began walking toward Alphys as Undyne's body slowly lost consistency.
"A-… Alphys… I…"
"UNDYNE!"
"She's done, sweetheart!"
"N-no! She c-couldn't be! She's too d-determined to die to a p-punk like you!"
"DETERMINATION is just a cheap tactic to make weak monsters stronger! It won't help against me!"
Jasper caught up to Alphys, who was stumbling backward in fear, and grabbed her by the throat, holding her in the air.
"Y'know, I'm trying to decide weather to kill you. I mean, to tell the truth, I'm not here to kill anyone. I'm just here to take this mountain as a base to mine this planet for resources. It's possible some people, as in everybody on the planet, might die in the process, but we usually give 'em some time to evacuate. But it doesn't really matter, you're useless as a slave, you look pretty useless as anything. So, I say, why not?"
Jasper began tightening her grip on Alphys' throat, slowly crushing her windpipe.
"U-undyne… h-help…"
"She's not helpin' you now, gecko. She's dead by now. Nobody's gonna come and sa- OWCH!"
Jasper dropped Alphys and reached to her back, trying to find the object that had stabbed her. When she did find it, she was actually surprised. It was a spear.
She turned around, pulled it out, and faced Undyne, who was practically half dust, barely standing on her feet.
She was smiling, her lips curling nearly to the base of her fins. Her right eye was shining with a bright white light. Reaching deliberately up to her eyepatch, she gripped it and clenched it in her fists, the motion snapping the strings that held it to her head.
She opened her hand, letting the eyepatch fall to the ground.
"DETERMINATION is a tactic, Jasper. But it's not a cheap one."
