Undertale spoilers!

I still don't own Undertale.

I could feel Flowey's presence. It was… imprinted over mine.

So Flowey got my SOUL in the end. That really sucks. I'm not alive anymore, either. I died just how Sans told me I would.

But I could still feel. I could feel Flowey's rage. His confusion. And I could feel… other things, too. Six others.

"Hello?" I called out.

But nobody came.

I looked out at Flowey's form. He was nothing like the seemingly harmless flower I'd known. His face was an enormous screen sprouting metallic tubes that hung him from the ceiling. He had four eyes and a vertical jaw lined with human teeth. Thick green vines covered in spikes constantly flowed out of either side of his 'head'.

Flowey was using our power, the immense power of six human SOULs to take on an enemy.

I focused on them for the first time. A short human with a blue and purple striped shirt, and shoulder length brown hair. Their SOUL was pulsating red. The colour of determination. That must be why Flowey was trying to kill them. He wanted more power. More control.

Save.

Load.

Reset.

The power of a god.

The human dodged between waves of bullets and seeds, fire and vines. They were truly determined. Each time they were hit, their SOUL split apart, but then they reappeared a moment later. Whenever they got the chance, they jumped forwards and struck Flowey with something. A weapon. I couldn't really see it.

The Red Human disappeared, and I could sense their SOUL, making contact with the others.

Finally, they came to me. I willed my SOUL to morph into my old form. I still glowed purple, unfortunately, but I did look reasonably human.

"Hello." I said, surprisingly calm. Ever since Karmic Retribution had turned on me, my mind had been freed of insanity.

"Hi there." The red human reached out, and we shook hands. As we did so, I noticed a familiar object in their free hand.

"Hey… is that my notebook?"

They held up the object, and sure enough, it was my tattered notebook.

"Oh, is this yours?" Asked Red. "You can have it back if you want."

"No, keep it. I'm dead now, I think, so it's not like I can use it. Just out of interest, where did you get it from?"

"This old tortoise called Gerson sold it to me. I originally bought it as a weapon, but I also like reading it. The stories are really great."

"You think so? I hate reading my writing."

"Yeah, they're really good. Anyway, I need your help."

"I can see that." I smiled. "But I can't. Flowey has control."

"No, he doesn't. You ever hear of determination?"

"Yeah, but… I don't have as much as you."

"Just keep fighting back. I think you're nearly there anyway – you must have hated Flowey more than any of the others."

Flowey can't control me. I am a human SOUL. I am one sixth of his stolen power. He is nothing if the SOULs work together.

Flowey's control ended abruptly. I spread my arms, and my energy weaved from my glowing form into Red.

Before I could even speak, Red's wounds were healed. A broken nose, burns, and various slashes on their arms were all repaired in an instant.

"Thank you. I need to go now. Flowey has no power left. I'm going to make him realize it."

"Hey, wait a minute." I told them. "You know… I always wanted to be an author. Carry that dream on for me, okay?"

"I will." Red looked back over their shoulder and met my eyes.

Then they vanished in a flash of red light.

A minute or two passed.

I looked out into the black void to see Red, badly injured, standing before Flowey, encircled by a ring of his bullets.

"Now… DIE."

The ring shrunk and shrunk.

No. I can't let them die. Not after all they did for me.

The other SOULs had the same thought. Together, we destroyed Flowey's attack and healed Red.

Thanks, everybody.

That thought, we thought it together. All of us. Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Cyan. And Purple.

"What…? How did you…? Never mind. I'll just…"

Text appeared on Flowey's screen:

LOAD FAILED.

The five other SOULs and I burst from Flowey, then attacked him together. He was brought to nothingness.

A tiny, wounded flower, his power to reset stripped from him. I left Red to decide his fate. If there was anything I'd learned, it was that I was unworthy to judge people.

Now, I was finally free.

Haha I tricked you all :D You thought it ended for real because I didn't update yesterday! Nope, I was just still writing this.

Anyway, it's over now. I'll probably write one for the Green Soul at some point. I dunno.
