3. The sun is so much brighter when viewed as you drift through space.

So many years have passed since we were freed from the underground by the human. I have seen the sun "for the first time" over…. I've…. Huh. I've lost count. There were timelines before this, the human has proceeded. Some, where they had freed us…. Others…..? Not so pleasant. I have witnessed dustspread and bloodshed like no other has, except for the human. This is the longest pacifist timeline I have seen… So far at least. There goes my pessimistic mindset again…. I wish I could trust Frisk more, but they have killed me so many times….

At least they let us have the sun for this long this time. But the price we paid for it was immense.There were so many murders… So many lives lost just so we could stay on the surface. So we could keep the golden glow worth so much more than what it was all taken for granted for. You don't know how much something is worth till it's taken from you… And you don't know how much you're willing to sacrifice in order to keep it once you finally get it back.

'How much did you sacrifice for the sun?'That's a question that we animatronics and monsters get. We get it a lot. The humans that had hurt us… They have long since died. But we won in the end, we still remain despite their efforts, and we have peace. The price for it? Well, when we escaped, the population we had was over three hundred fifty billion people… In over a few years the number went down to only a little under seven million….The number kept getting lower each day, the mass murders were so bad….

But that price….? Was it worth it? Well, I don't want the dead to think their sacrifice has been taken for granted… When we had already lost it once. Thanks to them, I am a person once again. They died, and their murders were labeled as "property damage" in court, while I, and many others get to live free. Free and unafraid. For the first time in millions of years, we get to have our golden light in peace. After The Era of Depression, The Era of Ecstasy, and now The Space era. We've lost so many people over the years… Humans don't live that long… Only one hundred years, and that's if they're lucky. While those of us that are left…. Are still here…. I've seen so many humans be born, live, then die… Many of my friends didn't wish to see more of their friend's families die… So I lost those friends 2as well…. I'm just glad that there's now a new king in heaven… They now have a place beyond the stars.

It's been over twenty-eight billion years. The sun remains still, but not for long. I have seen many a star die during this time. Each death, more spectacular than the last. The sun lasted much longer than we all had expected, but the time was welcomed. We all had evacuated earth a long time ago.Taking our homes we didn't want destroyed, and the patches of earth we wanted to take to our new homes. I personally took a patch of earth from my favorite spot in the underground, the two graves that belong to my human family. My father that built me, and the body of my sister that was laid down to rest. I didn't want to leave them behind… Many of my people did the same. Not wanting to lose the people we loved yet again. Others left the bodies. Their destruction being their final way of rest. My father and sister are both now, long since turned to dust. But it's still nice to have graves to go to and mourn.

I look to the sun from the ship we are floating in. The sun shines for a few more moments through the windows. Giving us their final riches of beautiful gold. A goodbye gift in a way. The gods and goddesses of our beautiful star have grown tired, and weak. It's time for them to rest. We are the first to watch the immortal grow old. In the final moments of the life of our small solar system, we all watch the sun one last time.

I feel a tug at my leg, and hear a small, beautiful voice. "Great Grandpa…? Is the sun really dying….?"

Down at my leg, my great granddaughter looks up at me, with tears forming in her eyes. Oil starts to well in my own, as I give my answer.

"Yes… The sun's dying kiddo… Ra has grown tired…. Along with Sol, Helios, Arinna, Surya,Huitzilopochtli, Inti, Kinich Ahau, Lugh, Mithra, and so many others… They may be the gods of thesun… But the sun wasn't supposed to last…. At least…. We're getting a chance to say goodbye to it….And to them… Right, Arpina?"

She thinks for a moment, as my grandson and her father, Nebula, picks her up. She looks at me,upset, but with a look of understanding. "I guess so… Still…. It's gonna be hard to say goodbye…. Both to the sun, and our god friends…."

Nebula holds her close, trying to comfort her. He pets her gently, making my tiny great grandcub purr. She nuzzles his paw, wiping some of her tears in the process. My daughter, Stellaursa, clings to my husband, Fell. She may be built to her full size, and so is her son Nebula…. But, they are still cubs at heart… Or soul in our case. "Papas….? I'm gonna miss the sun…. I'm gonna miss the earth….. I already miss all of my friends….. Why must we all live through so much loss….?"

I gently nuzzle her. Wiping her tears with my face, trying to give her some comfort. "It'll be ok…. Most of the gods aren't dying…. Just going to sleep…. They'll wake up again some day…. As for the ones that are dying… It's time for them to rest…. It'd be selfish of us to want them to stay…. But also understandable….. This is just how it is….."

'This is just how it is….' That's something I used to say all the time…. When we would get beaten in the streets… When I would have to explain to humans passing by why I wouldn't step in to save my own daughter from bullies, till the royal guard showed up…. When I had to explain to Satan himself why many of the damned kept asking him if they made it to heaven, because there was a greater hell on earth…. I hated saying that. But, heh, this is…. Just how it is….

I hear my brother, Springbonnie walking over with their family. He spoke loudly, but calmly. "HELLO BROTHER! NICE TO SEE YOU AGAIN….. WAITING FOR THE FINAL MOMENTS OF THE SUN, FREDBEAR?"

His partner Funtime Foxy stands near him, wearing unusually casual clothes. Next to Spring, on the other side of him was his daughter, Funtinnie. With her, is her Wife Wendy Wolf, and their child Bexy. I smile at them, but I am unable to hide the pain in my face. "Yeah…. Just like everyone else…."

We all stand at the window, watching and waiting for the end. I start to hum a melody, to pass what seems to be an endless amount of time. My husband follows my tune, then my brother, his partner,my daughter, my niece, then their cubs as well. The humming is heard by other passengers of the ship we are on. The song spreads through the ship. We hum for hours, before we begin to sing."Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy~

Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry~

Sunshine on the water looks so lovely~

Sunshine almost always makes me high~

If I had a day that I could give you~

I'd give to you the day just like today~

If I had a song that I could sing for you~

I'd sing a song to make you feel this way~

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy~

Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry~

Sunshine on the water looks so lovely~

Sunshine almost always makes me high~

If I had a tale that I could tell you I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile~

If I had a wish that I could wish for you~

I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while~

Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy~

Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry~

Sunshine on the water looks so lovely~

Sunshine almost all the time makes me high~"

We didn't even notice how close the sun was before- BOOM!!! ….The sun shone it's brightest, for the very last time. A supernova…. With tears streaming down our faces, we sang one last time."...Sunshine almost always~"

The sun was the brightest it had ever been…. The sun was so much brighter now that we were drifting in space, as it gave it's last show…. It's very last golden gift… Then the sun was no more.
