The room was fairly dull, it resembling a boring office cubical but with more space. The space was warm though and otherwise would have been welcoming if not for the yellow flower in the center of the floor.

Flowey, or Asriel, waited for us. He was staring us down, leafy hands crossed in determination. I tried to look around the room further, searching for signs of Ariel, but Chara wouldn't allow the turning of my head.

Taking the initiative, Chara spoke first. "Petals suit you, Asriel. You always were a bit of a pansy."

Face knitting in confusion, Asriel looked us over. He took in how we stood and the changes in our face. Once he got his answer he straightened up.

"Howdy Chara. I knew you never left."

Chara walked us forward a few feet, getting us in short distance of the lost Prince. "I can't leave without taking a few of my closest friends with me, now can I?"

Asriel's muscles tensed and they readied themselves for an attack, but Chara wasn't going to end their game so soon.

"Do you remember our old tapes?"

The flower narrowed his eyes and nodded. Chara giggled, something the neither of us expected, Asriel or I, and it made me shiver.

"Those were fun weren't they? Playing in the castle and the court yard…"

"Y-Yeah…"

"Do you remember the last video we made?" The muscles in our face tensed and turned up in a grotesque smile. "'Chara,'" They mimicked Asriel's voice, "'make your creepy face.'"

With that Chara lunged. They went to grab Asriel by the stem, as sparks began to dance at their fingers, but the flower was quick to dodge. The dance was beginning and it looked as though the two would end it with only one walking away.

That would spell out trouble for me. Chara and I were sharing a body, and the longer they fought the more I felt everything draining from me. If Asriel killed Chara I would die too. Thus, I needed to find a way to get control again.

Chara caught a tip of Asriel's petals and he winced in pain. That was when I heard it. A small whimpering and whining had begun. Chara and I turned our heads, trying to locate the sound, but Asriel regained himself. He sent a large vine our way to ensnare our ankle so he could have an advantage. Chara was quick to obliterate it though and the dance resumed.

Every time Asriel would get hit the wine grew and soon became crying. It was clear it was Ariel's cry. I didn't know what he had done to her, but I had a dreaded feeling her life was in his hands, and if I was to save her I needed to stop this fight. Yet, I was still unsure how.

I desperately tried to claw my way back into power, only gaining a second here or there but got suppressed again. It was only when Chara expelled a large amount of magic that they got weak enough for my shots in. I'd have to find a way to get them to use a lot at once. Asriel seemed to be wearing thin himself, so I had to make my efforts count.

"Chara, are you going to keep playing games or are you going to finish him?" I yelled out, hoping I could anger them enough. "Kill him already! I want my daughter back! It looks like you're the pansy here! You're just playing with him!"

The insults were hard to spit out, but it was true that I wanted Ariel and I was willing to do whatever it took to get her back. The cries of her were getting hard to not fret over.

Chara sneered and shouted out loud, not caring if Asriel heard. "Shut up! Your damn kid can die with him!"

Asriel only took a second to catch on to whom Chara was yelling at. He seemed to take advantage of this and taunted the red-eyed human as well.

"You only died for attention! You didn't even care how anyone else felt! No wonder mom hardly grieved when you died!"

Chara's head whipped around to give Asriel a death glare, magic building in their hands.

"I was trying to free you idiots! But now you're all going to die!"
