Flowey wrapped his vines over the elevator as the human jumped out of the way. The human stopped to stare for a bit, mildly confused, before continuing their journey towards Asgore. Taking his chance, Flowey went to find Papyrus who was sitting in the snow with his back against his house.

"Howdy, what are you doing sitting around here in the snow?"

"FLOWEY...OH...UH..." Papyrus deflated before him, looking back to the ground. "I Will Truly Miss The Human. Not Many Can Be As Great As Me...And...And...The Human Was One Of The Few."

"Well~ If you miss them, why don't you gather everyone you know and save them?"

"S-SAVE THEM?!?"

"Didn't you know? The human can't just leave. Asgore isn't going to let them. They do have the last soul that all the monsters need...and to leave they must take the soul of a monster to pass the barrier."

"B-BUT! THE KING WOULDN'T... THEY..WOULDN'T..."

"Oh but he will, do-"

"My child!!!!!!" Papyrus and Flowey stared at each other as they heard a strange wail passing by. Looking from the side of the house, they saw a blur of a white and purple monster heading towards the Riverperson. Flowey scrunched up his face as he tried to deter who or what that was. Shaking his head, he focused back to what he was trying to say before he got distracted.

"Look, the human doesn't have enough time, if you don't want them to fight, you better hurry." Seeing the expression on Papyrus face, he knew he had him. So he went back to follow the human.

Papyrus took out his phone and sent a message to everyone he knew. Looking down at his phone, he saw that it wasn't enough, so he sent the same message towards everyone in the Undernet.

"THE HUMAN NEEDS OUR HELP! THEY ARE FACING ASGORE AS WE SPEAK! BRING EVRYONE YOU KNOW TO STOP ASGORE'SSENSELESS BATTLE OR WE WILL NEVER SEE THE YOUNG HUMAN EVER AGAIN!" Putting away his phone, he gripped his fists as he marched towards Grillby's. Slamming the front door opened, his eyesockets searched the room till they found their target. Walking forward, he reached towards the bar and swooped up his brother.

"p-paps? w-what are you doing? how did you-"

"DON'T BE SILLY SANS! AS YOUR YOUNGER BROTHER, I KNOW YOU VERY WELL! BUT RIGHT NOW IS NOT THE TIME FOR TALKING!" He explained as he dashed out of the bar and headed towards the Riverperson's boat. "WE HAVE A HUMAN TO SAVE!" Sans massaged his skull as the drinks combined with his brother's speed was starting to have a bad effect on him.

"bro, the human's fine...they're just going...home. it's what they want and...everyone is happy that they are heading home. we shouldn't sto-"

"DEAR BROTHER, I KNOW ALL TO WELL YOU DON'T MEAN THAT! THE HUMAN HAS SHARED THEIR MERCY WITH EVRYONE. SPREADING WARMTH TO THOSE AROUND THEM. BRINGING HAPPINESS TO ALL MONSTERS. THEY EVEN MANAGED TO BRING BACK THE MISSING MONSTERS BACK TO THEIR FAMILY. EVEN IF THEY ARE JUST BUT A MELTING FUSION OF THEIR FORMER SELVES." Papyrus leaped put of Riverperson's boat and continued to dash onward. Heading towards MTT Resort via elevator at record speed all while holding his slumped brother under his arm

"paps, it's great what the kid did for us, really it is. so it's only right to let them go." Papyrus' pocket began to ring vibrantly. Pulling out his phone he saw his phone's screen fill with numerous of replies. All saying that they were heading towards Asgore's castle. Papyrus couldn't contain how much joy he felt at having so many messages in his phone and how they all viewed the human the same way he did. As someone who was worth saving, to keep close by and to be cherished. Closing his phone he let out a bright smile. Putting it away, he adjusted Sans body more firmly in his arm.

"Brother... Monsters Souls Are Made With Love, Hope, Compassion.."

"bro, I already know this."

"But What You Don't Understand Is That It Means That We Monsters Are Quick To Love. We Get Attached Real Easily. Since Everyone In The Underground Cares Greatly For The Human, They In Turn Beacame Very Attached To Them...Even You Brother..." Sans closed his eyesockets tight as he gripped harder onto his brother's arm. Papyrus shifted his brother's body, holding him tightly in his embrace.

"heh...thought I could fool you..." Papyrus rubbed Sans back as it started to shake, "they really are a good kid..."

"Sans..."

"yeah bro.."

"As Touching As This Brotherly Bonding is...I Must Tell You Something."

"what is it?" Papyrus turned his brother around.

"WE HAVE ARRIVED AT THE KING'S THRONE ROOM, AND DO YOU HEAR THAT BROTHER! IT SEEMS WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES HERE!"

"that was quick...you sure you didn't use a shortcut or something?"

"SANS! I WILL NOT RESORT TO LEARNING SUCH LAZY TACTICS WHEN I HAVE STRONG BONES THAT CAN CARRY ME TO WHERE I WANT TO BE JUST AS FAST."

"bro..."

"WHAT IS IT SANS."

"you're really cool, you know that?"

"NYEHEHE, OF COURSE I AM."

From behind the scene, Flowey observed the human as they stood infront of the king once more. Everything was the same, they were both ready to fight. That was until he noticed a bright warm light heading straight towards the king. A fireball hit him square at his chest, flinging him across the room. The human staggered back a bit, obviously confused by the sudden change in the timeline. Flowey was confused as well, he suspected a bone or a spear, maybe a bit of a zap to interrupt the king, not a fireball. Looking into the dark, he saw that it was none other then Toriel, the former queen.

Interesting, Didn't think she would be here. Definitely explained what I saw earlier. I suppose if the humanhadn't rushed in to fight Asgore right away like they always did, she would have come anyway.

"Do not be afraid, my child. It is I, Toriel, your friend and guardian." Flowey looked to the other side of the room and saw that Asgore was in shock. "... let us suspend this battle. As terrible as Asgore is. He deserves mercy, too." Shaking out of his shock at the sound of his name, he staggered to his feet. Walking closer to the former queen, his eyes were filled with love and hope.

"Tori...you came back!"

"Do not 'Tori' me, Dreemur! You pathetic welp..." Flowey was enjoying the shameful look of depression on the king's face. Noticing that the queen was right, that he could have freed the monsters long ago. But the king choose not to, for he truly didn't want his people to face the human, even when everyone else was suffering.

"...Tori...You're right. I am a miserable creature. But, do you think we can at least be friends again?" Asgore eyes shimmered hopefully, believing he could have a second chance at a fresh start. Toriel let out a sigh as she massaged her temples.

"NO, Asgore." Immediately, Asgore's hope crashed before him, his eyes pouring out in tears.

"Ngahhhhhh!!! ASGORE! Human!! Nobody fight each other!!!" Undyne crashed into the room, soaked in sweat. "Everyone's gonna make friends, or else I'll...!!!" She stuttered as she tried to gather her thoughts.

"Hello, I am Toriel. Are you the human's friend? It's nice to meet you." Undyne blinked a bit before rubbing the back of her head with a hand to her hips.

"Uh, yeah... ? Nice to meet you!" Looking closely at the new monster, she noticed a certain regal air around her. Walking towards the crying hunched over king, she placed a hand behind his back. "Hey Asgore, is that your ex?" She pointed with her thumb. Asgore eyes poured more tears at her question. "Jeez. That's rough buddy." He let out a sigh as he started to sulk. Undyne looked across the room and noticed Alphys staggering as she tried to run between the crowd.

"Oh! Are you another friend?" Questioned Toriel as she too noticed the nervous jittering monster.

"Uh, H-h-hi." Alphys stared at both the king and Toriel. "There's two of them?!" She whispered to the human. Noticing Undyne near the king, she staggered to stand next to her. Only to grab Undyne's arm at the sound of Papyrus' booming voice.

"HEYYY, NOBODY FIGHT ANYONE! IF ANYONE FIGHTS ANYONE...! THEN I'LL! BE FORCED!!!" Papyrus looked around the room, until he noticed Undyne looking at him with a questionable face. "TO ASK UNDYNE FOR HELP!!!"

"Hello." Spoke Toriel, shocking Papyrus causing him to jostle Sans, who was still tucked in his arm giving the human a lazy grin, not really paying attention to anyone.

"OH! HELLO, YOUR MAJESTY!" Papyrus bent down a bit towards the human, "PSST! HEY, HUMAN... DID ASGORE SHAVE? AND CLONE HIMSELF?????" Papyrus wasn't too sure when his brother disappeared from his arm, since out of nowhere Sans appeared behind the human. Ruffling the human's hair, Sans looked at everyone in the room.

"hey guys...what's up?"

"That voice!!!" Toriel started to blush as she ran between Papyrus and the human. Sans staggered back a bit, holding protectively of the human at the sudden movement of the strange monster. Readying himself to push the kid behind him if needed. "Hello, I think we may know each other?" Hearing the monster's voice, he lessened his grip on the human.

"eh hey...i recognize your voice, too."

"I am Toriel. So nice to meet you." Giving a wink, Sans introduced himself.

"the name's Sans..." side glancing towards the kid, he saw that they were giving him a cheesy smile as they wiggled their brows. Sans covered their face with his hand and looked back at Toriel," ...and, uh same."

Flowey laughed to himself as he noticed that all the monsters were too busy to pay him any mind as he nailed in the final nail to his plan. Papyrus blushing at one moment as he saw that the queen knew about him, to screaming in frustration at the thought of said former queen having the same bad taste in jokes as his brother. While the king continued to sulk at the thought of losing any chance he had on attaining his mate back while Undyne tried to cheer him up, with a stuttering scientist trying to aid. Accidently telling everyone that she thought Undyne was cute. At the sight of the two flirting, Mettaton broken body burst into the the room waving his legs towards the two.

"Oh my god! Will you two just smooch already!? The audience is dying for some romantic action!"

The two were about to kiss, but was soon stopped by Toriel. Saying how it was an inappropriate thing to do infront of the human. Who was looking a bit disappointed at not seeing them kiss. All themonsters then gathered around the human, smiling warmly at them.

"My child, it seems as if you must stay here for awhile. But looking at all the great friends you have made, I think...I think you will be happy here." The young human looked at everyone in the room. Rubbing they're eyes to stop their tears from falling, they gave them all a bright smile. They were happy to have so many that cared for them.

Alphys wondered how Papyrus managed to call everyone. But all he said was,

"LET'S JUST SAY...A TINY FLOWER HELPED ME." Sans' hands gripped tighten in his pocket, something about all this felt wrong, very wrong. Even more so when he noticed Alphys started sweating nervously beside him.

"A tiny...flower?"

Flowey let out a sinister grin for this was the moment he was waiting for. The moment were the human was at their happiest. His vines acted quickly as they wrapped every monster's body in the room. Suspending their trapped body over the human. He lavished at how useless it was as they all tried to escape his grasp. He appeared infront of the human. There face wasn't what he had hoped for, for it was emotionless. But he brushed it off as shock.

"You IDIOT. While you guys were having your little pow-wow. I took the human SOULS! And now, not only are THOSE under my power...But all your FRIEND'S SOULS are gonna be mine, too! Hee hee hee. And you know what the best part is? It's all your fault." The human hunged their head with their arms hanging limp at their side as they listened to Flowey. At every word Flowey threw at them, of how they listened to them, encouraged them...cared for them, it was what caused them all to come here for the human. All thanks to the human, Flowey had attained both human and monsters souls.

"I Will achieve my REAL FORM. Hee hee..."

'Flowey...why are you...I thought that you...?'

"Huh? WHY am I still doing this? Don't you get it? This is all a GAME." The human looked up at him, scrunching their face in confusion. "If you leave the underground satisfied, you'll 'win' The game." Which was something Flowey couldn't let happened. For if they left the underground, they wouldn't want to 'play' with him anymore. He would be all alone again. He hasn't had this much fun in a long time and he wasn't going to let it end. Especially let the human leave him, no...not when he finally had someone who could understand him. He will keep the human in his grasp, enjoying the frustration and anger fill them as he hangs their hopes of ever escaping but a mear inch away from them.

"If you DO defeat me, I'll give you your 'happy ending'. I'll bring your friends back. I'll destroy the barrier. Everyone will finally be satisfied. But that WON'T happen. You...! I'll keep you here no matter what!" Even if it ment killing them over and over. He didn't care if all the monster left, all he truly want is the human. To make his case, he used his new found power to contain the human inside a case. Flowey surrounded the human with flower pellets, with no where to run and no one to stop him, he knew that there was no way they would avoid it this time. The human placed their forhead against the case in defeat.

'I'm...sorry, everyone. I couldn't protect...'

Again and again, Flowey launched his attacks at the defenseless human, chipping away at their health. The human unable to do anything, took every hit he threw at them. Until his last attack was stopped by a ring of fireballs.

"What?" The human stirred a bit as they did not feel Flowey's final blow, but instead felt warmth surrounding through the case.

"Do not be afraid my child. No matter what happens. We will always be there to protect you!" Toriel's voice caught their attention as they raised their head. One by one, the monsters used what magic they had left and protected the human from Flowey's attacks.

"THAT'S RIGHT HUMAN! YOU CAN WIN! JUST DO WHAT I, WOULD DO. BELIEVE IN YOU!!!" The human smiled warmly at his words, feeling their determination growing.

"Hey! Human if you got past ME, you can do ANYTHING! So don't worry! We're with you all the way!"

"huh? You haven't beaten this guy yet? come on, this werido's got nothin' on you."

"Technically, it's impossible for you to beat him... B-but... somehow, I know you can do it!!!"

"Human, for the future of humans and monsters! You have to stay determined!" One by one, monsters started to pour into the room, all cheering for the human.

"Urrgh...No!" Flowey said with a sadden face, " unbelievable!! This can't be happening... you...YOU!" The warmth that was inside the room, turned cold as Flowey's face started to twist into a horrible grin. "I can't believe you all so STUPID. ALL YOUR SOULS ARE MINE." The room shook with Flowey's power as he absorbed all the monsters souls. The human shielded their eyes as a blinding light spread across the room. When the room settled, standing before the human, was a monster child.

He had his back towards the human, his vision was blurry at first as he tried to look at his surroundings. Letting out a shaken sigh, he felt his paws flex. Bringing them to his face, he could feel the soft fur beneath them. His body started to shake as he felt the warmth of the souls inside of him.

"Finally, I was so tired of being a flower." His vision, focused, he turned around to face the human. With a shy smile, he looked at them. "Howdy! Chara, are you there?" They staggered a bit at the mention of the name. The monster child, raised his paw slowly as he took one step closer to them. "It's me, your best friend..." Did the human not recognize him? Has it been that long? The human tipped their head to the side and started to smile at him. The monster child let out a small chuckle before closing his eyes. In one small movement, his body aged with power.

"ASRIEL DREEMURR." Asriel lifted off the ground as the human was filled with determinaton. Asriel launched attacks of fireballs, but the human dodged them all. All while smiling at him, hoping for something he didn't quite understand. Even when his body radiated with fluorescent colors of the soul's he had attained and sent a barrage of shooting stars, the human didn't give up. "You know, I don't care about destroying this world anymore."

The human smiled brighter as they dodged the numerous lighting strikes. "After I defeat you and gain total control over the timeline, I just want to reset everything." Asriel summoned two swords and charged at the human. But even then, the human continued to smile at him as they avoided his attacks. Landing his final blow, the human slid across the floor. Staggering to get up, the human was left on their hands and knees as Asriel saw that there soul shattered. Even with their shattered soul, the human body still moved. They let out a shaky sigh as they stood, their soul refused to stay broken. The human looked up at him, a large smile on their face.

'Sorry, but...I won't give up that easily!'

Asriel too was determined to win, "all your progress... Everyone's memories. I'll bring them all back to zero!" Asriel continued his attacks, while the human gained more confidence as they dived and leaped over them all. "Then we can do everything all over again." Rolling away, the human stumbled back to their feet. "You know what's the best part of all of this is?"

'And what is that, Asriel?'

"You'll DO it." Said Asriel as he pointed the human with a large cannon-like blaster. The human placed a hand on their hip while giving him a cheesy smile.

'Yeah, you're right. I probably would.' Asriel launched his attacks, merely knocking them over from the blast as they darted away.

"Then you'll lose to me again. And again..." The human wasn't fazed by this as they kept eluding him. "Because you want a 'happy ending'. Because you love your 'friends'. Because you never 'give up'. Isn't it delicious? Your 'determination' The power that let you get this far. It's gonna be your downfall!"

'That may be true. But ...with my last dying breath, my soul will stay strong. As long as I don't give up, as long as I don't give in...As long as I have my determination! I will never stop!'

No matter how much he tried, no matter how much their soul started to shatter, the human refused to stay down. "That's enough messing around. It's time to purge this timeline once and for all!" The room darkened as Asriel's power created a large gravity sphere that sucked everything around it. The human dug their weapon to the ground as they held on with all their might. Even with Asriel's continued attacks, the human refused to let go as they seemingly sidestepped away his constant assault. "...even after that attack, you're still standing in my way? Wow...you really ARE something special." The human gave him a smirk, "But don't get cocky. Up until now, I've only been using a fraction of my REAL power! Let's see what good your determination is against THIS!!"

Asriel's body started to morph as his power skyrocketed. In one swift move, Asriel had the human tied against the wall. They struggled with all their might, but couldn't remove the bonds that had their limbs hanging against the wall. The world around them started to shake as it slowly began to die.

"Urah ha ha ha...Behold my TRUE power!" The human was helpless, all they could do now was move their body side to side to avoid his attacks. "Every time you die, your grip on this world slips away. Everytime you die, your friends forget you a little more. Your life will end here, in a world where no one remembers you."

'As long as they are alive, I don't care if they forget about me. I'll just relive my time with them again. As long as I can keep going, my determination will not falter!"

With their battered body hanging, Asriel was impressed that they still had the will to hang on. But no matter, the world was ending and soon even they will forget everything as well. The human looked up at him, still with that cheesy smile of theirs. He didn't get it, they were finished, why..."come on. Show me how good your determination is now?!" But Asriel couldn't erase that smile of theirs. They continued to smile, their soul brighten, filling the room with its red glow. Asriel must have lost his mind for a second, for he could make out the human's soul taking their shape. Arms stretched out, the human soul-like body flew to embrace him.

Asriel staggered back as he felt the red soul's warmth seeping to his body, calling out the trapped monsters souls. One by one, the red soul called out towards the souls, awaking them...giving them hope to free themselves. The red soul made them remember the times they shared with them. Causing monsters to struggle against Asriel's hold on them. Soon, they manage to regained themselves. Even with freeing their friends, the red soul refused to let go of Asriel. The red soul could feel another soul resonating deep within him.

Slowly they mouthed out his name.

"Huh? What are you doing?!" Asriel grabbed onto the arms of the red soul. Unable to grasp what was happening to him. Memories of when he first meet the fallen human, came rushing in. All the fun they shared, the happiness, the warmth...the love they had as a family. Everything...

Asriel tightened his grip on the red soul, shoving it away from him. The red soul returned to their original form as it settled back towards the human. The human struggled against their restraints as they reached out for him. Asriel gripped his chest, trying to stop the building warmth that began coursing through his body. "Wh...what did you do? What's this feeling? What's happening to me?" The restraints on the human soon faded away. Being able to move, the human slowly made their way towards him. "No! NO! I don't need ANYONE!"

Asriel send his attacks towards the human...but they didn't stop. They continued to stumble their way closer to him. "STOP IT! Get away from me! Do you hear me! I'll tear you apart!" The human tripped a bit as Asriel tried to attack him. He was losing the will to fight. The human continued to get closer. "...Chara... Do you know why I'm doing this...?" His voice started to shake. "Why I keep fighting to keep you around?" The humankept walking forward. Asriel couldn't aim at them anymore at they continued to smile at him. "I'm doing this...because you're special, Chara. You're the only one that understands me. You're the only one who's any fun to play with anymore." They walked closer and closer. "That's not JUST it. I...I... I'm doing this because I care about you, Chara! I care about you more than anybody else!"

Asriel wasn't ready for this to end... for them to leave to have to say goodbye...again...He wouldn't be able to handle losing them again. He cried out as they got closer, "So, please... STOP doing this... AND JUST LET ME WIN!!!" With tears running down his cheeks, he gathered all his strength to deal one more blow. A blast so great, that the human would have no choice but to surrender.

But they didnt...

The human kept walking, pushing through the blast, they didn't give up. Their clothes and body were tattered, there health reaching far below zero. But their soul never broke... Asriel continued to cry out, putting all his strength to stop them.

"STOP IT NOW!!!" He gave everything he had. But they didn't stop... Even reduced to dragging their battered body, the human continued to reach for him. He was spent, he had no more energy to fight, sighing he bent down towards the human. With a shaky paw, he softly brushed away a strain of their hair way from their face. "...Chara..." he layed his paw on their cheek, "I'm so alone, Chara..." The human placed their hand on his paw as they struggled to stand. "I'm so afraid, Chara..." They smiled so softly at him as his body started to shake. "Chara, I...I..." Asriel's body started to fade, covering the room with a blinding light. The human shielded their body, waiting till the room settled. Hearing the soft cries of a young boy, the human lowered their arms. Standing before them was young Asriel, covering his face with his arm as he continued to cry.

"I'm so sorry." Whiping his tears, he tried to smile at them. "I always was a crybaby wasn't I, Chara?" The human let out a soft chuckle, "... I know. You're not actually Chara, are you?" The human continued to smile as they shook their head no. "Chara's been gone a long time...um...what...what is your name?"

'Frisk.'

" 'Frisk'? That's, a nice name." Frisk let out a cheesy smile as they scratched their head with a hand on their hip. Happy for his complement. "Frisk... I haven't felt like this for a long time. As a flower, I was soulless." He couldn't feel anything, but now...since he had the soul of the others inside him, he regain his compassion that he had lost. He could even feel the will of every monsters soul. How they cared for each other and how they cared for Frisk as well. He wanted to tell Frisk how much they loved them, but no matter what he said, it didn't amount to how truly loved they really were. "Monsters are weird," he chuckled. Frisk hasn't been in the Underground for more then a couple of days, and everyone already loved them so much. "Frisk...I...I understand if you can't forgive me. I understand if you hate me. I acted so strange and horrible. I hurt you. I hurt so many people." Asriel knew that there was no forgiving for what he has done. He had no excuse for Frisk to forgive him. He tightened his eyes as he gripped his fists.

Just then, a warm hand patted his head. Opening his eyes he saw Frisk standing a few inches infront of him, giving him a bright smile."wh..what? Frisk comon. You're ...you're gonna make me cry again." Even with their forgiveness, Asriel couldn't keep the monster souls. So he decided to return them all, but not before breaking the barrier. The one thing that was keeping everyone from their freedom. Calling forth all the dreams and hope of the soul's within him, he blasted the barrier open. Destroying it once and for all.

"Frisk...I have to go now." Asriel could feel his body start to waver. He didn't know how long he had, but he knew his body was about to give without the aid of the other souls to sustain it. "So...Frisk. It's best if you just forget about me, OK?" He will be back to being a flower. But it was okay, for Frisk will be with the people that love them. His body began to go cold as fear started to consume him. He didn't want to stop being 'himself' but there was nothing he could do.

Then suddenly he felt a warm body colliding into him, wrapping him in a warm embrace. Shaking him out of his fear, he held tightly onto Frisk as they rubbed his back. He cried...he cried his heart out and Frisk stayed...comforting him till he stopped crying. "Ha...ha...I don't want to let go." Frisk tighten their grip...Asriel sensing the human body start to shake, he let go. "Frisk...you're...you're going to do a great job ok?..." They had everyone looking out for them. Feeling his body start to shift, he told them goodbye.

"Frisk...take care of Mom and Dad for me, ok?"

Your body felt so heavy...all you could see was darkness. You could feel the ground on your back and hear various voices...as if they were submerged in water. As your body screamed in protest at every attempt you did to move, you realised how incredibly tired you were. You didn't bother to sleep the whole time you were in the underground, too determined to reach the end...and now...that is all you wanted to do...to sleep...

Sleep felt so nice...you didn't feel any pain, any soreness...to stay floating in the dark...

...

"Frisk...This is all just a bad dream...! Please, wake up!"

You let out a small gasp as your body fought against its tired state...

You woke up...
