Hey, guys.
I, uh, need to apologize.
This story, along with 'A Shortcut Out' will not be continued in terms of chapters (past one more).
I'm very sorry to anyone still reading, but I'm stopping for two reasons:
I've lost a want/need/motivation for writing Undertale related stories.
Except for Sans the Teacher.
Icy's made it to good.
The second reason I don't wish to continue writing for this story is that I don't get any feedback.
Getting a response from you guys (the readers) is what makes me eager to write something for you guys.
From getting no reviews for MONTHS, it feels like no one really cares.
Sure, I'll have compliments in PMs and such, but...
No one reviews.
And those are what really motivate me, the thoughts you guys might have, the IDEAS you guys have.
I've always wanted to make a story based on an idea, just the beginning and end.
And let the readers give ideas as to what happens next.
I could have written this entire story in two chapters:
One explaining how she got there.
And one explaining why she stayed.
But, now, I'll just give a summary of the end:
Salya walks into the royal castle, sees Asgore, and follows him to the Barrier.
She manages to convince Asgore there's no point in fighting, and she goes in for a hug.
She sees Flowey next to him, a vine ready to split his SOUL in half.
Salya pushes Asgore away, using the side of her body so she faces Flowey.
Flowey pushes the vine into her, puncturing a lung and scraping her spinal cord.
And she begins dusting away, leaving bone.
Sans rushes in with Gaster, Toriel, and Undyne.
Sans runs over, seeing Salya's SOUL floating above her slowly decaying body.
He grabs the pink SOUL, absorbing it and stopping the dusting of her body.
By now, her arms and legs are bone, any flesh, muscle, or tissue in general having dusted away, leaving the bone.
It seems all the blood has drained from her body, leaving it pale and white.
Sans transforms into a skeleton version of Salya's wolf form (basically a wolf with a half snout, very thin bendy spine, human hands and feet pushed in awkward angles, and his arms/legs are jutting above the thin connection of his body, his spine).
After chasing Flowey and leaving the flower slightly mauled, Sans regains some humanity and stops himself from killing the flower.
He runs back (now in his regular form) to the Barrier room, looking at Salya and the others when an idea pops into his head.
He grabs the borrowed SOUL and splits it in half, giving one to Salya, keeping one for himself so she can feed off his magic.
Salya wakes up, no longer using blood but magic to live, and eventually decides to live with Sans and his family.
And then she goes to high school.
But, that's on StT, so...
Yeah.
I'm sorry to anyone who still reads this, but I won't be writing more for it.
I might make a rewrite/reboot of this story, but not soon.
I hope you've all enjoyed reading up to this point.
Salkeya, Out!
