Chapter 8: A Desperate Plea
Over the sounds of the battle, you can hear voices speaking to you.
"I know we have never been formally introduced, but I like to think that we know each other. Kind of." Phineas says.
"We don't really know that much about you, but you probably know us." Isabella adds.
"We know you have been watching our adventures all summer long." Baljeet says.
"Even if some things shouldn't have been seen…" Candace says bitterly.
"But hopefully you've enjoyed watching us." Gretchen says.
"Even if some of us got less screen-time than others." Adyson says.
"All in all, we've had some good times." Buford comments.
"And thank you for coming along." Ginger adds.
"But now, we need your help." Ferb says.
The battle shifts and their attention is required elsewhere, but more voices call out.
"I never really thanked you for guiding me through the underground. It was a difficult task and we made some mistakes, but things turned out alright in the end." Frisk says to you.
"while i'm not happy about what some of you made Frisk do, i know a lot of you never even considered the path of genocide. and really, you're part of the reason we're on the surface to help these kids in the first place."
"I owe you all even more than that." Gaster informs you. "Without your inquisitive minds I would have remained unknown and forgotten. It was your investigations that gave me the strength to stay determined."
"but, while i don't want to alarm any of you… we can't really beat this freak."
"It's not just their determination, we have plenty of that to be sure." Frisk says.
"But the kind of power this creature gained from its time in the void, is significant." Gaster states.
"and quite frankly we can't last much longer. eventually they'll get loose, and when that happens… Then not one of you will survive."
"But you can help us." Ginger says.
"You have the power to decide how this story ends." Adyson says.
"You may not realize it, but you've been in control this whole time." Baljeet says.
"You have the power." Buford says.
"The power to RESET." Gaster says.
"You are the architect of our fate." Gretchen says.
"Your next actions will decide how this goes." Ferb says.
"We'll do our best no matter what comes." Candace says.
"But our situation is very serious." Sans says.
"So there's just one thing we ask of you." Frisk says.
"Can we have a happy ending?" Phineas asks.
The battle intensifies and their voices say no more. I cannot tell you what to decide. I merely tell the story, I do not control it. But for what it's worth… I hope you make the right choice.
