As soon as Alex drifted off into Gaster's mind, everything kinda went south quickly in the lab.
The first mistake made was bringing Verdana into the Lab, being still held in Chara's arms as she knelt beside Alex, Frisk, and Gaster. Betty, deciding that now would be a good time to do so, used her special attack: Rhabdophobia. The pink field enveloped the entire lab in a pink glow for only a moment before it quickly faded. Unfortunately, while everyone else seemed confused by this, Rindie knew exactly what this meant.
"Get out of the field!" They shouted too late.
Before they could responded, Verdana began to move and wake up in Chara's arms, making her smile in hope, ignoring Rindie's plea. Verdana's eyes shot open, her pupils in her sockets glowing a frightening pink. Chara might not have know what Betty did a moment ago, but now… now she did. "V-Verd?!" Chara asked the little skeleton, hoping desperately that she wasn't under Betty's control.
Chara heard the whine of blasters charging, before she felt herself being shoved violently away. She nearly got blasted to ashes as her previous location was now a charred crater from one of Verdana's blasters. Chara looked at Verdana in horror after the attack, before getting to her feet quickly. All the while, Betty simply giggled at the display.
Before anything else could happen, mistake number two reared its ugly face. The world around all of them began to blink rapidly before the terrain became monochrome. The familiar feeling of Battle Magic enveloped all of them, however it felt far more powerful and intense. Almost as if it was forced upon them. All of their souls began to emerge from their chests for everyone to see.
Something was off with Rindie's. The white and the black seemed to be… stabbing into one another, as if they were fighting. After another moment like this, Gaster and Alex stirred, both waking up before their souls, too, exited their chests. Chara and Asriel looked at Rindie's soul in shock. That probably wasn't good. As the Battle Magic continue to effect everyone, a haunting, creepy tune began to play as Rindie's menu was forced up, reading:
*LeT's EvEn ThE oDdS, sHaLl We?! =)
[Cue: 'Yanderetale BAD TIME (Katsu's take-updated)' {Would've used Betty's theme, but this is creepy enough!}]
Rindie frowned. They felt they could have broken out of this, but that'd cause too much damage to the timeline they weren't too sure their SOUL could fix in the state it was. Instead, they pressed FIGHT, getting the mark dead center. Luckily… or unfortunately for Rindie, Akumu quickly formed a shield around Betty, shielding her from most of damage. She simply giggled at the attempt.
After that, Akumu quickly shifted into a large scythe-like weapon, wielded by Betty. She dashed forwards towards Rindie, a sick smile on her face as she drew close. Rindie raised their right hand, palm forwards. A white shield circled by red appeared around them. While locked with her weapon on the shield, the controlled Verdana sent several blasters firing at Rindie's shield, covering it with their energy.
Rindie grunted. This body of theirs couldn't handle too much of their power, they didn't set it to be able to. They should have just worn suppressor instead of making a weaker body for themselves for this AU! Suddenly, all of the summoned blasters exploded as red, magical knives shot through and destroyed them. Betty, still locked onto the shield, was caught by surprise and blasted with a silver beam of Purity, sending her stumbling back. She growled in frustration, while Rindie was finally given a moment to breathe.
The dual SOUL colored being frowned. If things kept up, they'd need to use that. They didn't want to, because of it's… newly acquired risks, but if they needed to they would. Not being idle while they fought, Rindie stabbed the black sword-arm into the ground, making black spikes erupt from the ground aiming at Betty.
Betty tried to jump up, out of the way, but was grazed by the spikes. Her HP, however, barely responded to the blow, making her giggle even more. As the spikes retracted, Rindie was forced to end their attack as the turn ended. However, the menu didn't pop up for them this time. Looking over to the side, they saw the 'menu' appear before Alex.
[FIGHT] *[ACT] [ITEM] [MERCY]
*CHECK PURIFY
*Bete Noire ATK yes DEF yes
*FEAR has no equal… except DETERMINATION
"Focus on trying to get Verdana back to herself! I have a plan!" Rindie shouted out to the others. Chara nodded, before looking at Alex.
"ALEX! PURIFY HER!" She screamed. Alex nodded and held his arm towards Verdana and let a beam of Purity magic fly toward her. Success, it hit her dead-center in the soul since it surprised her. But…
*But Nothing Happened
Verdana was simply forced a foot backwards before she responded with several blasters forming around her and firing at the four Dreemurrs. They all dashed in separate directions to avoid the blasts, which was what she wanted, allowing her to hit a few of them after the first blast missed. Alex skidded a few feet across the floor, Asriel slammed into the far wall unconscious, and Chara and Frisk managed to escape without injury.
Betty continued smiling before she summoned her trademarked pink spear in her hand, throwing it right at Rindie's soul. The spear easily punctured their soul, going halfway through it.
Rindie gasped, looking down. Looks like they had no choice. "Heh… good shot, Betty. However… you just made. A big mistake" Betty, ignoring their threat, pulled back with her magic in an attempt to pull Rindie's soul back towards her.
But nothing happened. Instead, both black and white that were previously intruding on the others side retreated…before bleeding into Rindies form. Their left and right sides were covered in the substance as their sweater, somehow unharmed, vanished. Their left side was completely black, with demonic claws and a demonic horn on their head, a white vertical slit for a eye.
Their other side was the opposite. It was covered in white, with a halo around their wrist and above the right side of their head. A black slit was this sides eye. White, holy flames covered their right hand as black demonic erupted on their left. Hunching over, a giant demonic black wing erupted from the left side of their back, a white angelic one at it's opposite.
* Rindies True Form emerges…
Betty, smile faltering for the first time today, let out a small breath in relief as the turn ended and the 'menu' popped back up, this time for Chara. Surprisingly, despite it not being their turn, Rindie appeared behind Betty. "Why hello there. I believe this is yours," The strange creature said, before a slightly greyer spear stabbed right above her SOUL through her chest. Her eyes widened with shock upon seeing the spear sticking out of her chest.
For some reason, in a similar fashion to monsters, a pink mist-like dust began to exit the wound, rather than blood. Akumu wasted no time snapping the spear and pushing Rindie away, before grabbing the nearest vial of magic to them and smashing it against Betty. Unfortunately, for every party in the lab, Akumu had just given Betty one of Gaster's vials of Hate that he had collected for study.
Betty straightened her posture before nodding to Akumu. Wasting no further time, Chara finally made her move, surprising no one.
[FIGHT] *[ACT] [ITEM] [MERCY]
CHECK *PLEAD
Chara called out to Verdana, "VERD! Wake up, please! This isn't you!" In response, Verdana sent another wave of energy blasts at her, Frisk, and Alex as they moved to dodge once more. Gaster, having since moved from his location by his desk, was nowhere to be seen. Now, there was no longer Battle Magic trying to force Rindie in place.
Rindie fired waves of black and white fire at Betty, smiling a half white and half black smile as they did. Betty, with the help of Akumu, was able to dodge most of the flames, while Akumu took the undodgeable ones. Betty, despite previously being impaled, giggled and counter attacked, summoning forth a large amount of pink spears around her. She sent the majority of them at Rindie, with a few being sent towards the others.
All of the ones at Rindie harmlessly passed through them. Maybe now would be a good time to CHECK what she was dealing with.
The kids weren't exactly doing super well against the Betty-controlled Verdana. Alex continued trying to Purify Verdana, which wasn't working due to his lack of Determination. Which should be rather obvious, really. Chara and Frisk, however continued trying to get her attention and distract her. Unfortunately, if Alex was doing anything to her, he was making her angrier and lower on HP.
Now, the 'menu' had swapped owners once more, and moved to Frisk. She watched as the familiar 'options' appeared, before making her choice.
[FIGHT] *[ACT] [ITEM] [MERCY]
CHECK *CALL-FOR-HELP
Frisk called out for help, hoping someone else would come. After a moment, Gaster reappeared, holding a vial of glowing red liquid. The side read 'Determination'. He called out, "Alex, use this!" Gaster threw the vial through the air towards Alex, who barely caught it and examined the vial before realizing what to do.
Alex took it out and injected it into his arm, allowing the warm, red liquid to flow throughout his entire body for a moment, before his eyes began to glow a soft red color. His soul followed suit, now turning into a shining red color. He was filled… with Pure Determination.
Wasting no further time, he held out his hand and let another beam of Purity magic shoot out towards Verdana, this time coated in Determination. Upon hitting Verdana's soul, the pink hue to it faded back to white as her pupils flickered before dimming. In response, she crashed and fell onto the ground, losing consciousness.
Alex smiled triumphantly while Chara ran over to pick Verdana back up. Alex continued to smile despite Betty and Akumu still standing nearby, simply happy that Verdana was no longer either a threat or in danger. A moment later, a pink spear pierced his chest and soul, making him freeze in place as he stared down at it, blood now flowing from the wound. Frisk screamed.
As Frisk tried to run over to Alex and save him, Betty continued. She giggled as she pulled back, yanking Alex's soul away from him and bringing it towards her hand. Alex fell to the ground as the color began to drain from his face.
Rindie, since they were not restricted to simply standing and watching, lept at the SOUL and intercepted it midway, snatching it. Betty wasn't particularly happy by this, as she leaped forward in anger, trying to get the human SOUL that she had taken.
"Gonna need to borrow this," Rindie whispered to the SOUL, before temporarily absorbing it. They could give it back later. Turning towards Betty, their left hand grew, them slashing the now sword-sized claws at her. There was a strange silver-red energy around the claws. Betty screamed out in pain as a large claw mark appeared on her chest, sending her flying backwards into the wall. Her impact against the wall was softened, however, by Akumu.
As she lifted herself back up to her feet, Rindie and everyone else could see an inky-black substance seep from her wound and seal it. "Looks like I need to up the ante," Rindie said with a frown. They were hesitant to do this, this form was already pressing their luck. IF they did what they thought they might need to… they didn't know what would happen. And that worried them, just a little.
Frisk, looked down at her now motionless, bleeding boyfriend and decided she was done. She was done sitting by and letting her family be hurt. She sent a glare towards Chara, who got the message and ran over with Verdana to watch Alex, while she got up. Frisk's eyes began to glow a soft red as he soul began to glow brighter than ever before.
*Knowing that fate of the world and Alex rests with you…
*You are filled with DETERMINATION
She took in a deep breath before her soul created a large, glowing red shield on her left arm, while summoning a glowing red sword in her right hand. She then ran over to Rindie's side, not willing to let anyone else solve all of her problems without her. Rindie could see the Determination in her eyes.
Rindie smiled. This could be the stabilizer they needed. "Frisk. I can end this in one attack, but I need something from you. I need to borrow that brand new DT you have, and use you to launch an attack that will vaporize that pink abomination. Will you allow me to do this?" Rindie asked, holding both hands, the same size again, to Frisk.
Frisk didn't need a menu to show her the options. Without hesitation she nodded. While this was going on, Betty fully regained her strength and giggled at the two of them. "Pink abomination? All I see is a Mistake and a Pacifist. If anything, you're the abomination!"
"A literal five year old has legitimately insulted me better than you." Rindie shot back. Hands growing, they wrapped Frisk up in black and white. Their wings shot into the ground, and from around Betty two walls appeared, black and white. It looked oddly like the barrier. Betty's eyes began to open in fear, realizing this didn't look good for her.
From Rindie, what first looked like seven SOULs appeared, each main trait. Upon closer inspection, Rindie was calling upon all their SOULs. Every. Last. One.
Suddenly, Betty and Akumu shimmered before them. Now, laying there in pain was Alex, bleeding out. "P-please Frisk… st-stop…" He begged. Frisk's Determination began to falter.
"This is rather pathetic. Frisk, how would Alex even get IN here? I blocked them off." Rindie said with a chuckle. They were gathering power, turning their black and white self into a rainbow. Almost ready. As the image shimmered back to Betty and Akumu, Akuma was seen beating against the barrier around them. Frisk angrily gripped her sword a bit tighter.
A button appeared in front of Frisk. It read 'Finish them'. As much as Frisk never wanted to hurt someone, she knew what had to be done. She nodded, slightly solemnly, wishing there could've been a more peaceful solution, before pressing down firmly upon the golden button.
The walls collapsed onto the pink couple even as a rainbow beam assaulted them from every direction. Betty and Akumu screamed in pain as all the energy ripped into them, tearing the two apart. Atom. By. Atom. The overwhelming light from the blast shattered something else as well, causing the Battle Magic to fade away as the haunting theme died.
[Cue End of Music]
With the battle over, Rindie retracted their hands and SOUL. Walking over to Alex, they pulled the PURITY SOUL out of themself and put it back where it belonged, using the last of their energy to heal his form.
Now drained, and with all of their SOULs almost completely grey except for their CORES, Rindie brought them into themself again… and fell to the side, returning to 'human'... but something was wrong. Their SOUL, still over their chest, wasn't black and white anymore. It was grey.
Now that the battle was over, Gaster walked over to the center of his ruined lab and frowned at the ground. The QMA was currently offline, which he turned off during the fight. Gaster sighed, knowing that this wasn't going to be the end of the night, "Is everyone alright?"
Alex, after having a coughing fit after returning to life, nodded while Frisk jumped upon him and hugged him tightly. Chara nodded as well as she held Verdana closely. Asriel, now waking up, wandered over, clutching his head, and nodded, "I think so." Gaster smiled gently at them before looking at Verdana with a confused expression before looking at Rindie and approaching them.
"Rindie?" He asked in confusion, having decided to not ask about them in the middle of the battle. Rindie only groaned in pain, eyes shut. They felt so weak, they couldn't even get up. Or move. Before Gaster could do much of anything else, he heard his name being screamed from the nearby doorway.
"DOCTOR GASTER!" Screamed Core Frisk as they stood there, looking angrily at Gaster. Gaster already hung his head before Core could begin to berate him, "How many freaking times have I told you about messing with the timelines?!" Gaster didn't reply. "You didn't listen when we first met, you ignored me when you sent Alex to the Genocide, you ignored me when Rindie first appeared, and now… look at everything that's happened!"
Gaster narrowed his sockets at Core Frisk, "Listen here, Core. I had no idea who Betty was. If you really cared about this timeline, you would've warned me before I turned off the magic inhibitors for Betty!"
Core Frisk visibly recoiled, frowning before folding their arms over their chest, "I told you that I don't like to alter timelines too much."
Chara spoke up in anger, "Really?! What do you call this, then!?" She said, motioning around to the ruined lab, before pointing at Rindie, "If you didn't want to alter the timeline, why'd you threaten Verd and wake up Rindie?!"
Gaster's sockets darkened, "What?!"
Core Frisk grew frustrated, "That's not the point! The point is that YOU-" They pointed at Gaster, "- have been altering all of these timelines, with little-to-no regard for the consequences of your actions." Before anyone could respond, Core Frisk also angrily pointed at Rindie.
"And YOU! What the heck were you thinking?! You could've destroyed the timeline with that stunt you pulled against Betty!" Core Frisk yelled at Rindie, not caring at all how they currently felt.
Rindie only groaned in pain again, not really responding to the Frisk. Core Frisk narrowed their sockets at them regardless, before looking at everyone else.
"In reality, the timeline would've been destroyed… but luckily for you all, I have connections. One of them agreed to help close the cracks as they formed. And I know you think-" Core began in a mocking tone, "oh, but Core Frisk, I've set up countermeasures to prevent that sort of stuff." Core narrowed their eye sockets again. Damn how are they not closed at this point, "That's not the point! None of this would've ever happened if the two of you hadn't begun interfering with everything!"
Finally, Rindie seemed to collect themself enough to stand. "And if I did not, Gaster still would have anyway, despite your initial appearance. He would have run into Betty. And this all would have happened anyway." Rindie said neutrally, no emotion at all in their stance or voice and their eyes still shut firmly. "I simply chose the timeline that had the least casualties. You cannot see the timelines with me until they happen. So you can be quiet, and stop being a brat."
Core Frisk yelled out in frustration, making them all watch them. Wow they really were being a brat. After a moment, someone new entered the lab. "Is the fighting over now?" Mr. Sower asked as he entered, his Golden SOUL still on display from the earlier battle magic.
"Yes." Rindie informed simply. The teacher smiled and let out a sigh in relief as he entered with Sans close behind, smiling like usual.
"hey g, looks like you're awake now." Gaster smiled at his son and nodded.
Then, Gaster stroked his chin in thought before speaking, as if Core Frisk hadn't yelled at him in the slightest, "So, it seems I will need to put more countermeasures up before I resume my research." This caused Core Frisk to yell out in anger once more, before appearing right in front of Gaster.
"NO WAY! There is no way you're going to start messing with the timelines again!" They yelled in disbelief and anger.
Rindie shook their head at core. "You act like this is the only timeline that does this. It is not." They said neutrally, starting to worry everyone a bit. This was… a little different from Rindie before.
Core continued to yell in anger, "That's different. You don't see other timelines bringing Betty into them, or going into other timelines for the sole purpose of taking essence from their Void!"
"Because Betty is 'new', and thus has not acquired enough alternates to do so, and that was to revive someone. To save them. Are you against saving people now, Core?" Rindie asked neutrally, head turned to them despite their closed eyes.
Ectoplasmic tears began to form in Core Frisk's sockets, "You don't think I want to save as many as I can?! I've tried countless times, across timeless worlds. Don't you remember what happens when I do? For every one world I save, another is created in response, in which I cannot save them!"
"Then tell me. What was your plan by entering this one? By your own logic you have created at least three worlds that have become doomed by your presence." Rindie said logically and mercilessly.
Deep down, no matter how hard they tried to portray the opposite, Core Frisk was still a kid at heart. At this, they broke down completely and fell to their knees. "Y-you're r-right…"
"You are lucky I decided to visit after you, and have sent alternates to those worlds as well to save them where you cannot. Unlike you I do not suffer that curse," Rindie continued, making a small amount of relief enter Core. "I have done that for many worlds you visited. If I knew the full list, I would do them for all, but I do not like to delve into others minds."
Core Frisk remained silent on their knees for a moment, staring down at the ground, before looking up at everyone, shuddering very slightly upon looking at the teacher's Golden SOUL, but almost everyone did not notice. Eventually, Core sighed, "I'm… I'm going to go…" They finally announced, defeated.
Gaster slowly nodded at Core Frisk, "Thank you though, Core… for helping before when I was starting…" Smiling weakly, Core nodded before looking up at Rindie for a moment. They looked at their odd, grey SOUL floating before them with a look of confusion.
"Rindie… your SOUL…?" They asked, having never seen Rindie's soul look like that.
"What is wrong?" Rindie asked Core with a head tilt. "I would look at it to tell you if it is fine or not, but I appear to have caught a case of the blind."
Gaster looked a bit closer at it, "It appears to be gray and colorless. And not gray as in silver, like Alex's. Just… gray…" Gaster said in wonder, observing the odd SOUL.
The child frowned. They fiddled with the black undershirt they wore under their sweater, having not gotten that piece of garment out of their inventory quite yet. "That is… odd. It is not supposed to be like that," They said, before 'looking' to the side. "I… cannot access the SOULs in me. It is like they are… resting."
Core Frisk dryly chuckled, "For once, there's something the great and mysterious Rindie does not know. I'm simply astounded."
"I usually have the power to simply run every possibility instantly. I do not know. I feel… weak, numb." Rindie told Core neutrally.
Core simply shrugged for a moment before turning to face everyone, "Well, I think it's time to leave… good luck figuring everything out…" They said before physically vanishing from the lab. However, everyone that knew Core Frisk truly knew, he was still always watching. Rindie put their SOUL away.
After a moment of silence, Sans broke it while turning to Mister Sower, "hey pal, you might wanna put your soul away. it's the sole soul still hangin' around." Asriel groaned at San's pun while Chara gave herself a facepalm with one hand, holding Verdana in the other, still. Everyone else couldn't help a small chuckle as the tension was cut.
Mister Sower shrugged, "I'm not that skilled in magic, remember? I'm gonna need some help here." He replied. Verdana, in her sleep, pushed the SOUL back in his chest. Somehow. Mister Sower smiled.
Chara grew really excited and began to involuntarily bounce in place. "Verd?! Are you awake?" She asked her sleeping form. Unfortunately, her only response was further slumber.
After a moment, the teacher looked over at Gaster, "Hey Doctor, did you ever discover anything about my SOUL?"
Gaster gently smiled and rubbed his chin again, "Well, I have determined that every soul trait, besides the most common six, are extremely rare. To the point that only one can exist per world. Meaning, there can only be one SOUL of Determination, one of Purity, and one of… whatever you have. Hate cannot be a SOUL, and Fear seems to be a unique trait to Betty's timeline."
Both Frisk and Chara looked at each other with confusion and concern. Frisk asked, "Wait. But Chara and I both have Determination. How does that work?"
Gaster nodded and smiled, "Yes, but there is good reason for that. You see, Chara had a Determination Soul first, before she died. Then, afterwards, you got yours. Therefore, there was only one at a time. However, with the revival of Chara, it created a paradox, allowing you both to keep your Determination SOULs." Gaster continued on with his lecture on Soul Traits to the kids and the teacher.
While they were talking, Rindie was attempting to walk out. Attempted because they kept running into things. After a moment longer of attempts, Rindie felt a boney hand on their shoulder. "i 'see' that you're having some trouble, there. iris you'd slow it down a bit." Sans told them.
Rindie would normally laugh at the pun, but just felt… nothing. Instead, they simply nodded and stood still. Sans chuckled dryly at his own puns, "heh, that's your cue to laugh, pal." After there was still no laughter, Sans shrugged before remembering why he was talking to them, "oh right, you're blind. since you can't see, i'll tell ya that i was shruggin'... now… where do ya think you're going?"
"Since I seem to be incapable of leaving through my normal methods I was going to acquire an apartment so I may wait for my abilities to come back." Rindie replied neutrally.
Sans shrugged and sighed, "listen kid, eye don't really know why you're so determined to leave, but dontcha think it's better that you stay put?"
The newly blinded child tilted their head. "Why?" They asked simply.
Sans chuckled a bit, be remained quiet enough to not disturb his father's lesson. "look pal." He chuckled a bit more at that, "if you don't even have the ability to navigate a familiar building like this, how do you expect to take care of yourself in this condition?" Sans asked with a hint of concern.
Rindie shrugged a tiny bit. "I was going to pay people to do that for me. Despite my lack of powers, I still have access to my inventory and all the G in it." They said.
Sans responded, "right… so you'll pay someone you can't see to help you for a while. and even with your inventory, if you can't tell the difference between a hallway and a wall, what makes you think you could access your inventory without accidentally grabbing something a bit more… dangerous than a pile of 'g'?"
Rindie tilted their head. "I see your point… then where will I go?" They asked.
Sans paused for a moment to consider this. "well, i'm sure g would help ya out since you did give us verd. and tori is pretty hospitable too. honestly, you could probably even stay at the lab in an unused room if you wanted privacy."
"Any is fine," Rindie said simply. "I will need a walking stick." They added suddenly.
Sans chuckled a bit, "heh, reminds me of frisk when she first appeared in the underground, waving a stick around to distract the dogs… heh…" After a moment, he continued, "well, i'll talk to g about the 'where', but i'm sure we have something that'll function like a walking stick around here." Sans began looking around the lab before chuckling again, "on second thought, perhaps we should just get a walking stick from somewhere else, without important equipment."
"Alright." Rindie said simply. "Do you know a shortcut?"
Sans chuckled as a large grin formed on his face. He knew the kid couldn't see it, but he didn't care, "as a matter of fact, i do." He laid his hand on Rindie's shoulder before the both vanished from the lab. Sans chuckled a bit to himself as they flew through time and space for a moment. Looks like he was getting out of lab-cleaning duty again, not that he had a problem with that in the slightest.
As Sans went with Rindie to retrieve a walking stick for them, everyone else helped clean up the lab a bit before Asgore and Papyrus arrived to take the children home. Gaster spent the rest of the evening repairing the damaged equipment and upgrading his entire system in the case of someone else coming through the QMA. Luckily for Gaster, Mister Sower remained behind to help out in anyway he could. After that whole nightmare, they were all glad they'd be able to get some sleep now…
Off in the darkness between timelines stood both the Entity and Error Sans, watching the entire ordeal as it occurred within the timeline. Error Sans became angry as he watched the destruction of Betty and the awakening of Rindie.
"ThIs Is A dIsAsTeR! EvErYoNe Is StIlL AlIvE aFtEr BeTtY's AtTaCk!" Error said in anger, his eyes glowing brighter than normal. The Entity simply looked at him out of the corner of their eyes before shrugging, making Error even angrier. "HoW aRe YoU nOt AnGrY oVeR tHiS? EvEn YoUr InFlUeNcE oVeR tHe BaTtLe DiD nOtHiNg In ThE eNd!"
The Entity finally turned around to fully face Error Sans, pointing accusingly toward him, "And you still don't get it. Betty's purpose was not to destroy them, it was to destabilize them all and weaken… 'his' hold over the timeline…"
Error looked at him in disbelief, "LeT mE gO tO tHeM. i CaN eAsIlY dEsTrOy ThEm!"
"Easy there, Error, you'll have your time."
Error Sans narrowed his sockets at the Entity before frowning, realizing how useless it was to go against the Entity's wishes. As long as they held onto his Frisk, he was at their mercy… for now… In a flash, he vanished from their sight, leaving the Entity alone to gaze upon everyone in Gaster's lab and the darkness around them.
Off in the distance laid an odd streak of yellow energy, like a comet, heading towards the timeline in question. The Entity simply smiled as he noticed this before returning his attention back to Gaster's lab, happy that everything was going according to plan.
Rindie was now weakened, Core Frisk had finally left the picture, Gaster was still undeterred from accessing the multiverse, the 'Judge' was now heading towards the timeline… and best of all, the Entity's presence was still masked and largely unknown to them all.
The Entity smiled a bit wider as their chest began to warm and glow. On cue, a Golden SOUL floated before their chest, glowing brightly. The fact that his entire well-thought-out plan was still perfectly on track…
The fact that his time to change the Timeline was quickly approaching…
It filled the Entity with CREATIVITY.
Author's Note:
So, the Betty fight was cool, but not as long as I originally planned it to be. I apologize, because I feel like maybe I could've done better... idk, but I think it still works well. And now... some truths have been revealed:
The Entity has quite an extensive plan!
He has a Golden SOUL, which is finally revealed to be called Creativity.
Now, Error Sans is on his way soon, but it seems the so-called 'Judge' is coming as well, beating Error to the Timeline. So, stay tuned and Patient until next week, where we'll pick back up again. I hoped you all enjoyed this Arc of Fear, and look forward to Error and the Entity coming by. If you like this, let us know with a fav, follow, review, or PM. Or, simply just read and enjoy the story…
I hope this story has filled you with Creativity…
