A/N: It's been one whole year since I started this story. What a journey this has been! Thank you guys for your support on this adventure! It has really been fun for me to write. I hope you guys all like whats about to happen! It's going to be a bumpy ride from here on out!

That being said, I do apologise that this chapter is a bit shorter. It was a lot to happen in a sort period of time. Thank you guys and enjoy!

You duck to the side to avoid the spear as it brushes right past your heart. You watch where it ends up, seeing it crash through the menu you thought only got could see. Blinking in surprise, you watch as the mercy button cracks and shatters. You look up to Asgore, ready for anything, but, he's not looking at you. His head is down, avoiding looking to to meet your face.

"Asgore... You don't have to do this." You tell him. His movements hesitate just a moment, but he continues his attack, blasting you with fire magic. You manage to avoid all of his shots, sliding side to side to avoid him, "Asgore! Stop this now!" You notice Asgore tighten his grip on his spear as he swings it at you again. You try dodge the spears, but one catches your arm and knocks you down. You cringe, holding your arm as your heart blinks back to solid, "I don't want to fight you." You tell him. He hesitates only a second before continuing his attacks.

"I guess talking to you won't do me any good." You mumbled to yourself. You stand slowly, debating on what to do. Asgore stands over you, waiting for your next move. You consider what Frisk had told you and look over yourself. You will have to fight Asgore. But with what?

Sora, you hear Frisk's voice, don't you have something that will work against him?

"Something like what?" You look at your hand, then remember the few things you had put up your sleeve, which had acted like a big pocket. Curious, you pull it open wide and shake it out. First fell out a couple spider donuts, "no, that won't help," you shake again and a bit of sludge looking jelly lands with a this, making you shiver.

Dog Residue, Frisk says, No good here.

"Why the heck do I even have that?" You ask yourself. Stuck to the Dog Residue you noticed a little plastic bag with cut up colored pieces of paper. Written on the outside of the bag, it said "Temmie Flakes." You just shake your head and shake something else out. The last things to fall out were a sturdy looking stick and a mushy, but still delicious looking, slice of pie.

"That smell..." You look up at Asgore. He had looked up to meet your gaze, a sad and longing look to him.

You look down at the pie again, mushed against the plate, but still hanging in somehow, and pick it up. With a smile, you walk over and hold the pie up to him, "Here, have some."

Asgore hesitates, but smiles as he takes the plate from you, "Oh, thank you, human... This pie... It's brings back some fond memories." He knelt down, holding his spear up beside him, just staring down at the pie.

Sora! You hear Frisk call to you, Now is your chance! You have to strike while his guard is down!

"What?" You whisper to the side, looking at them. How could you attack Asgore when he wasn't even fighting anymore.

He would do the same to you! This is the only way, remember?

"No." You tell them, sternly, "There is always another way."

"What was that?"

You look up to see Asgore watching you with a curious look. He tenses a little as you reach down and pick up the stick, "Asgore. This doesn't have to be the way it ends." You smile as you throw the stick to the side. Asgore looks at you, confused now, "I can set you all free without having to hurt anyone."

Asgore stood now, his hand still holding his spear, "If you will not fight... Then how do you intend to win? How could you free us?"

You look down at your hand, hoping to call your keyblade again, but it didn't come. You just close your fist and smile up at him, "Well... Maybe we could break it together! Why do I need to kill you and take your soul for this to work?"

Asgore shook his head, "It is simply how it is done. Only with all the human souls together could we break the barrier."

"So then... Why don't you just give them to me?"

Asgore looks surprised, "Are you suggesting I simply hand them over?"

You smile and nod, "I have a way with hearts," you say, placing your hand over your chest, "I think I could use them to destroy the barrier so no one has to die!"

He seemed to mull it over for a second, considering his options. One he had decided, he gave a smile and banged his spear on the ground twice. You look back as canisters began to come up from the ground.

"If you wish to try... Who am I to stand in your way? However," he pointed the spear at you in warning, "I will not allow you to leave this room until the barrier is broken."

You turn back to Asgore and nod, "Deal."

Asgore smiles, "Good. Now-" his face drops, then, to one of despair, "This can not be!"

You blink and look over your shoulder to where he was staring. The canisters where the hearts were meant to be we're each empty, no heart to be seen. In their place were swarms of heartless, trying to break free of the glass.

"Oh no, heartless!" You exclaim, stepping back from them.

"How did these creatures get in here?!" Asgore sounds horrified, "The human souls! Did they take them?"

"Your Majesty!" You look back at him, "It's not safe here, we need to get out now!"

Asgore just stares at you, his hands shaking for a moment as he drops the pie and the spear. He falls to his knees as his body begins to turn to dust, leaving behind only a little white heart. It was floating for a moment, until something sliced it down and broke it in pieces.

"Oops~" you hear a familiar, shrill, voice, "Seems the fallout king is no more!"

"Flowey?"

Flowey pops up from the ground, back to his little flower form, and winks, sticking his tongue out at you, "I've been trying to find those souls for so long. But, looks like I was too late anyway!"

You stand your ground, trying to think of a way out of the situation, "Flowey, why are you doing this?"

Flowey scoffed, "Duh, I want control of this world. Isn't that obvious?"

"But taking control of darkness isn't the way!" You step towards him, "You'll only be swallowed by it and-"

"And what?" He scowls at you, "It's not like I have anything to lose! No soul, no heart, no nothing!"

You pause for a moment, "Do you really believe that you don't have a heart?" Flowey looks suspicious and surprised, but you continue on, "Everyone has a heart, it's what connects is, Flowey. Surely you have one deep down. You must know that!"

Flowey thought about it for a moment, just staring at you. After a few minutes, he just laughed. He laughed hard and almost sinister sounding, "Wow. You are more naive than even Frisk! Maybe I should show you what you're really up against!"

The glass behind you shattered as the shadows filled the room like a wave and washed over you, trampling you before you even had a chance to figure out what was happening. All you could make out was the sound of Flowey's laughter.

Then, silence.

"Man! That kid is so stupid."

Flowey shook his head as the shadows were gathered around him. More and more of them seemed to be coming from each and every dark corner of the room. Flowey smirked, watching them closely. He was in complete control. And it felt amazing.

"Hey! Listen up!" He yelled. The heartless all stopped what they were doing and just twitched in place, antenna pointed at Flowey, "There is still much to be done. Go on! Take out the Underground and show these pathetic monsters who's really in control here!"

The heartless simply twitched in agreement and began to shamble off, some taking doors while others used pathways of darkness. As quickly as they appeared, they were gone. Flowey too a deep breath and smiled.

He looked in front of him where Sora's body still lay face down. He ducked down underground and popped back up beside him.

"It's strange, you don't reset nearly as much as Frisk does. Why is that?" He poked at Sora with a petal. He tilted his head as if to shrug and just turned away.

"Maybe..." A low voice mumbled from Sora, making Flowey halt his retreat, "because... I'm not down..."

Flowey turned back, narrowing his eyes as Sora slowly got his feet, his eyes still hidden.

"Sora? How are you still conscious?"

Sora clenched his fists tight as he smiled wide, rasing his face a little, "He says our hearts are connected... Maybe he's right. Still..." He looked up and met Flowey's gaze, his eyes now a piercing red, "I'm not Sora."

Flowey flinched back a little "H-Huh? You..." He sneered "Whoever you may think you are, you won't be for long!" He roared in anger as he called on the darkness. Shadows began to form around him as they went up his stem, stretching Flowey this way and that until he no longer resembled the little flower he once was. He was a dark and twisted being, a flower shaped nightmare with extra limbs and startling yellow eyes against his dark skin.

Sora watched him for a moment, relaxing his clenched fists. Everything was clear to him, in a way that was totally not clear.

"Flowey," he said once The now giant creature ceased his roars, "We're more alike than you know." He smiled a little.

Flowey's deformed face scowled at him, "What do you know about me anyway? You don't even belong in this world."

"I know more than you think." Sora held his hand out to the side, a few buttons appearing beside him, "For example, I know without the human souls, you can't truly control the timeline."

Flowey blinked and just glared him down.

"Which means, I'm still in charge here!"

He turned to the buttons and grinned, smacking his hand straight through the reset button. Flowey yelled out in protest, but it was too late.

Everything went black.
