Speedy and his friends sat in their garden in the frigid December air. Puffs of mist puffed from their mouths with every breath. The generator was doing well, heating the house and causing the appliances to work, but power needed to be conserved, so they turned off all leads of the generator except the ones to the fridge and freezer.
"Well, this looks permanent." Gaster said as he sat. Skeletons, obviously, didn't need coats. "Easy for you to say, Gaster!" Undyne was clearly having the worst. The fish-like monster was shivering, even though she was wearing three coats. "Here. Let me help you." Toriel cast a few fireballs into the firepit. Bright, crackling fire blazed up. "TORI! WHY COULDN'T YOU HAVE DONE THAT EARLIER?" Papyrus asked. Toriel simply shrugged.
Mavros viewed the countdown timer. "Twelve hours to go…" he thought, gripping his axe, which was glowing a flaming red.
"Nope. Sorry, sir." The electrician shook his head as he closed the switchboard. "Earth's power is not coming on any time soon." Asgore sighed. "Well, it looks like we just have to rough it out with our generator. "Looks like it, sir." The electrician walked off.
Mavros viewed the countdown timer. "Eleven hours and fifty-nine minutes to go…" he thought. In the distance, he thought he could hear his officers laughing.
Both Alphys and Asriel were complaining very loudly that there was no anime to watch. Speedy clamped his head in his hands, trying to block out their complaints. Suddenly, DJ's voice sounded in his ear. "Data streams reopened." Speedy asked DJ what had happened. Apparently, he had suddenly found a bypass program and bypassed the barrier.
Speedy nodded. Then, rumblings shook the Earth. Cracks appeared. Sinkholes swallowed up houses. "G-Gaster! Activate the-the repulsorlift engine!" "Will do!" said Gaster, stumbling as the rumblings got closer and closer. Gaster ran down the steps and a crack opened near the house. "Hurry!" Asriel yelled. Gaster hurled himself at the switch. "Everyone in the house!" Sans shouted as he felt the engines activate. And not a moment too soon! The entire house, along with the garden, lifted off thanks to the repulsor jets built into the piece of land that the house had been built on. The crack stopped. "What happened?!" Chara had to shout over the noise of the rumblings. "DJ tells me that some power penetrated into the Earth's core and caused a world-wide ultraquake."
Mavros smiled. The Earth had been shaken and rumbled. Now for the Third Blow.
