Final Battle

Face to Face with Chara Ryven swallowed looking nervous. She was more bloodthirsty then he thought. He looked anxious before G patted his head. "It's alright princess.."

"Let's make this interesting shall we?" Chara smiled her eyes closed. Ryven knew this tactic and he took a breath before speaking. "What do you suggest?"

Chara would smile tilting her head. "Let's put our guardians on the line shall we? If I win I get your Guardian..If you win you can have my Guardian and I'll of course step down.."

Ryven was quiet looking to G who looked to Ryven a smirk coming. "Ohh she wants to gamble? Well then Princess lets give her what she wants..." Ryven looked anxious for a moment before nodding."Fine..I agree...We'll put our guardians on the line.."

Chara would smile her eyes opening."Your last hour strikes.." She snapped her fingers before Asriel would shift growing. For a second G raised one brow looking up. "Eh heh heh heh.."

Ryven would narrow his eyes before speaking. "Sans..Go nuts.."

He released the restrictions it meant if Sans took damage Ryven would feel it. It was a safety mechanism for the fights he'd left on. Now he was taking it off. He was giving Sans full ability. The crowd went quiet. Ryven was actually releasing the safety? The gun was loaded the bullet was in the chamber.

The fight started going. Back and forth the two fought as Chara just smiled staring Ryven down. Finally Ryven stared before speaking his eyes half closed. "You aren't going to win.."

Chara laughed looking amused. "I've already won."

"Yes..But you've already lost the game.." Ryven snapped his fingers allowing his magic to flare up. Sans responded by pouring everything he had into it. Bones struck Asriel left right and sideways as Ryven gripped his chest.

"What's the matter little boy? Does your chest hurt? Aww" Chara giggled loudly before breaking out in a full laugh.

Thats when one Monster stood up in the crowd unfolding a hand fan gracefully. "Yass queen slay!" On the fan in bright orange letters was Ryven's name as well as the title Singing Mage. Pretty soon the rest of the crowd was chanting. "Slay..Slay..Slay.."

Ryven had the crowd on his side. He was able to activate his final spell. It would burn him out. It would reduce his ability but it would give Sans one last boost everything was on the line.

"..Thank you for your determination.." Ryven brought his hands together activating the soul bond speaking softly. "Hypermode.."

The last resort for all mages their guardian would receive as much power as the mage had in their body. It was dangerous it was draining and Sans knew what Ryven was doing. He was channeling the crowd's ambient energy.

Chara wasn't experienced enough to do this..

Sans would grin before snapping his fingers his eyes glowing brightly." Judgement hall.."

The crowd went silent as the arena suddenly looked like a long hallway Sans had opened his boundary. Something he normally didn't have the ability to do. "Eh heh heh heh.."

Ryven's body started to become lined with orange swirls..He was over loading..

Borrowed time..

"One step left now..." Chara was smiling like a maniac now before she froze suddenly aware she was surrounded by Sans's blasters making her look around. "Wait what are you doing?! You can't attack me directly!"

Ryven winced holding his chest. "Actually..Yes he can..Mystic Retribution.."

Sans grinned before A Bone raised up under Chara making her jump as it raised her up into the circle of blasters. Her soul went blue as Sans Spoke "..Get Dunked on ya murderer..."

The blasters fired the crowed watched as Chara's life points on the screen went to 0 within one hit. Ryven wobbled staying at one hit point. His spells halted the restrictions replaced. Sans's boundary shattered without the power to maintain it.

"And Chara is out of the competition! You have a new Champion!" Came the announcement from the Arena speakers. The crowd Cheered loudly before a single figure walked onto the Arena holding the Battle Games cup. Sans looked to Ryven who smiled slightly a nod coming. "I'm ok..Go accept it."

Sans would hold the cup looking proud before turning. Ryven had fainted..

Borrowed time..

His time was up.. He was fading.. His soul Flickered his eyes closed. The crowd was on their feet eyes covered but unable to actually look away from what was happening. Sans dropped the cup kneeling next to Ryven who opened his eyes looking up. "..Sorry… I've been living on Borrowed time..Heh...Looks like my time is up...I'm happy..I got to meet you..I got to save all the monsters...I have no regrets other then I'm gonna die a Virgin boy.."

Sans picked up Ryven before looking to the crowd taking the headset ."Everyone..Monsters in the arena..He saved you all..Help us.. Help the Singing Mage.."

For a moment the crowd was silent unsure what to do before one monster raised their hand. "I'll send some life force.."

Another Monster did as well. "I'll send some what the hell we owe him.."

Pretty soon the arena was filled with glowing lights before the monster with the Fan spoke his eyes hearts. "Oh my god yass it's so Fabulous! Are my viewers at home seeing this? What are you waiting for my beauties?! Lets send him some love!"

More lights streaked through the sky dropping into the arena before sinking into Ryven's body who opened his eyes looking shocked taking a shaky breath. "Wha? Sans? What happened?"

Sans grinned tears in his eyes. "Eh...You won the crowd Princess.."

Ryven sat up before speaking "Sans you dropped the cup?! Oh my god did it break?!" Sans had to laugh picking up his human swinging them around. "Who cares it's just a cup!"

"I do! It's all our efforts!" Ryven pouted going red before wrapping his arms around Sans's neck."..Shut up.."

G smiled his forehead pressed to the others which made Ryven close his eyes a smile coming. "..Thank you everyone.."

Ryven was back on his feet waving as both he and G held the cup with one hand between the two of them.

"Registered Champions The Singing Mage and The Executioner.." The Arena updated it's rankings and for once no one seemed to be unhappy. Asriel stood sniffling his eyes wide looking to Chara before a hand rested on his shoulder. "..Asriel time to come home..It's over son.."

The king of the monsters smiled looking down to his son before Asriel hugged his father bawling loudly. He really was only a child after all. Asgore picked him up heading off the arena stage patting his back.

Ryven looked Relieved before turning to Sans. "..Did you tell him his son was here?" Sans nodded slightly before speaking. "Let me tell ya I know where the kid gets his cry baby side from.." Ryven blinked before bursting into laughter hugging Sans speaking softly. "I knew you cared right from the beginning.." Sans patted Ryven's back his cheeks yellow. "Yea yea..Shut up and enjoy it Princess.."

The games kept going but new restrictions were placed to protect the guardians from being out right killed.. Mages were not allowed to attack one another after that.. Guardians could no longer be forced into contracts.. The games were more justified after that…

Ryven and Sans? You could say the two lived happily ever after but come on..This isn't a fairy tale.. They sassed one another till the very end when Sans learned something very important..Magic had a way of working it's self out.. Ryven didn't die like he was afraid he would. Instead his magic simply reset his body..Ryven lost his memories lost everything except for the most important thing.. He never lost his friend…

Sans was by far less then happy to be raising a child. But he did it.. He joined the Science guild and the two lived happily and Sans would tell Ryven stories of the young mage who saved the underground.. After all there's no way a child would remember his past self..

Right?

Right?
