It terrified you. But you stayed DETERMINED.

The same attack. It survived again.

"you know, kid.. i thought you were different. i thought you could break this terrible cycle of genocides. but that's the thing. the 'key phrase'. i thought. that's how i lost hope, you get what i'm saying? oh wait. you cant. you don't have a soul."

The next attacks were dodged with ease, 20 HP still full.

Wait.

20 HP? I thought it was supposed to be 92. That's weird... I'm supposed to be level 19..

Something's not right here.

Like something's out of place.

You know, like in a world perfectly functioning without you.

Not supposed to exist.

Huh, I've been thinking deeply. I should pay attention to the fight.

Oh. the FIGHT.

Sans looks.. tired.. sweating..?

I shout with all my might, but I couldn't make a sound.

Not while 'it' was conscious.

I have to find a way to signal to Sans that it's me.

Until 'it's HP was reduced to 0.

Back in the white room.

But no falling.

The man was there.

The one that speaks in hands.

The one that came from the other world.

Gaster, that's who.

"Hello, child."

"Gaster."

"Oh! You remember! You are very good, child."

"What are you here for?"

"I think you know." He pointed at the little red soul infront of me.

"Huh? Don't you have one?"

"Not exactly." He showed a small, white, 1 cm long shard.

"I thought I can't have a soul. I'm out of place, you know? Not supposed to exist."

He paused. "Until I found you."

"But.. But I need this to be alive. Human souls can't function if they're not complete."

"If you want Sans and Papyrus their father back, living a peaceful and happy life on the surface, You will give me your SOUL."

"If you do not, you will leave them in misery.. Trapped in the confines of this damned timeline, never to find true happiness again, and you may not continue your journey unless you.. defeat Sans and take Asgore's soul."

Two options appeared infront of you; YES and NO.

Yes                    No

______________________________

"I need to think on it first."

"One minute."

Chara?? Where are you?? You've been silent the past hour!

Hmm? Oh, sorry. I was taking care of some things.

About time.. What do you think I should do? Should I give my soul to Gaster? And.. why am I not able to control my own body?

For your first question: Listen to my second answer. Second question: That 'thing' is the entity that was produced by all the past LV, EXP and GOLD you have earned. Well, past 'you's to be exact. Past timelines were Genocide ones. As in, ALL of them. It's been the 12th genocide run and that power took shape and controlled you. This IS the last reset, if you reset again, after the run has been completed this world will cease to exist. Not even you will exist after that. So you have one timeline left to fix it all. My advice:  You------

Chara? Hello?

"Child, it seems your time is up. Choose now."

"Uh.."

Yes                    No

"No."

"No? It seems you have.. misunderstood. SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL?"

The world reset.

Ok, guys. I'll explain. The first book Start A New Again is the present timeline. This one is past timeline (Started A New After). Start A New Again, meaning that's the timeline after this. You may be confused, so read the first book's chapter 22 (which I published just now) which I just copy pasted on to here if you cant find Start A New Again.

In the sequel, it stated that the present timeline is the last and final one. The one to fix everything. But that didn't go so well, did it? So no more chances. You, the reader, really was not supposed to exist. A glitch. Gaster was right. The world is gone forever. It doesn't exist anymore. You changed the timeline, causing a chain reaction of timelines to be altered. And those timelines had the same ending as this. There is nothing you can do about it, not one thing. The reset has been done. No way of changing it. No 'happy ending'.

Neutral.

Just like real life.

Wake up and smell the flowers.

Bye. The end. It's over.

Why are you still reading this? The book is over.
