Ford looked through microscope, he was still trying to figure out this so called "Determination". Omega was now sleeping soundly and quietly, which made work easier for him, and harder. Without the "Determination" he needed to study it made research harder, expecaly when it keeps evaporating. Ford watched as the rest of it did so.

At least that's holding her off from attacking.

Ford got up to get an injector like he used once on Omega. It kept her asleep for only so long, but it was supposed to last longer. He grabbed a stool and grabbed Omega. She was surprisingly light from their last encounter, he carefully set her on the ground which made her flinch from the coldness. He grabbed the injector and stuck it behind her head injecting her with the longest sleeping serum he had.

Omega flitched as it went into her skin, the spout from her shoulder appeared as it did.

He almost forgot all about those!

Ford took the shot out but the spouts were still pointing at him, and they had a red glow inside them? He touched the spout and it burned him, he shook his hand and the spout went away. He was shocked to think her body can take the extreme heat and not burn her from the inside out. He would have to test that later though.

He stuck the injector back and pulled, gathering some determination.

It almost looked like it was hurting her, Ford rubbed where he did it to ease the pain from it which worked a little. When he looked at it, it was a different color. It was cyan. He went over to the microscope and sat down putting it on the petri dish. When he looked at it, it was no different than before.

Why did it change color? Different power? Different abilities?

Ford went back over to Omega who groaned and covered her head, some crazy dream was going on in her head that's for certain. He examined her eye which was the same color as the "Determination". Ford went back to see if he would get the same results with the toxin chemical.

But he didn't.

It took longer than it did usually, Ford had to sit there for a moment and see if he used the right stuff on it. It evaporated but before it did it became red once more. Omega rolled over, the serum was working much better than before. But she kept whispering something like "I don't like it"? The words sent a stab of guilt into Ford. But he continued working.

Only for what seemed like hours Ford finally found out how to make some of his own "Determination". He already had it set for her when she would wake up in any moment.

A few minutes past and Omega remained motionless. Ford to her side and shook her. "Omega?" He brushed her lightly on her side. He didn't know how to check if she was alive or not. "Omega!?" Ford shook her a little harder.

He began to panic.

Omega wasn't moving and she didn't sound like she was breathing. Ford grabbed his own "Determination" and put it behind her head.

This HAD to work.

Omega whimpered and her eye opened only a little. Ford sighed in relief and stroked her softly. Ford Put the shot in his pocket, Omega was hurt either physically or mentally in some way. "Omega are you alright?" He asked concerned, he only got a groan for a response. He went over to his desk and quickly made some of his own "Determination" and went back to her side. "This might hurt." He said as he stuck it into the back of her head. He saw her eye glow bright for a moment before she lifted her head. Ford pushed her head back down lightly and she only rolled over to look at him and she looked like she was badly hurt. He put the shot down and she only eyed it, making a soft growl.

"Omega calm down, you need to rest. Whatever happened it seemed to heavily affect you." Ford said keeping his hand over her snout to make her stop. He didn't want to use too much pressure on her. She relaxed and he let go. She had unstable breathing. He didn't know what to do, it couldn't be the lack of sun even though she is a plant, and he didn't take so much "Determination" that it would affect her so badly. Her eye began to close again but he was quick to get more "Determination" and quickly inject it in her. He looked at the shot he used to keep her asleep and realized something in it would affect her badly. On it, it said in big bold letters "DON'T USE ON PLANTS IT WILL KILL THEM". Ford felt like an idiot, and the only reason she was still alive was from her blood and her generic make-up.

Ford was extremely stressed, he didn't know how much time before she's dead. Omega's eyes wanted to close but she was too determined to let them close. Her breathing became faint and was still unstable.

All he could do is watch her die.

Omega looked at Ford and grinned. "You thought you could kill me off that easy?" Her voice was so faint. Ford got on his knees beside her. "Omega I'm so sorry." He petted her one last time before her eye closed. Ford could feel a tear roll down his cheek and fall on Omega. Her eye suddenly opened all the way and she tackled Ford. She grinned and Ford was spellbound. "I told you! Did you really think you could kill me off that easy?" She got off and Ford whipped a tear away.

"How are you even ALIVE?" He exclaimed. "He caAared! He caAared!" Omega chanted. "It's easy Fordsy, when you tried so hard I got determined to stay! I only closed my eyes because I didn't look at your sad face." Ford hugged Omega, her thorns were down, and she hugged back making sure not to peirce through his skin with her paws. Ford did his best on trying not to cry. "Some tough guy you are." She mocked. "Not all of us are all the time." He laughed. He stopped and let go and so did Omega. She wanted to say something but hasitade but then did.

"You're nothing like Gaster."
