Notes:

(See the end of the chapter for notes.)

Chapter Text

after school, Kris trampled up the stairs and crashes into a pile of Asriel's... socks.

(Chapter 3A not finished yet.)


Meanwhile, in the Bunker...

Darkness engulfs the room, the only light source being a dinky little candle. Cages fill the back walls, housing (but not limited to) So Sorry, Undyne, Papyrus, and Jerry (thank fucken' god!). The Knight gets up from their Arm Chair of Evil (TM), starting a chat with Undyne.

"Hey, LEMME OUTTA HERE, AND I'LL GO EASY ON YA!" Undyne yells. The Knight replies, "Oh, Undyne, Undyne... don't you understand? We are..."
"Exactly the same? WE ARE NOT!!!" Undyne interrupts.
"u-uhh... that was not what I was going to say. Anyways, we are not alike. that's what I was going to say." The Knight continues. "oh yeah, by the way, I ate the keys."

The Knight focuses onto Papyrus. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN I'M NOT A ROARING KNIGHT?" Papyrus yells. "oh, come on!" The Knight said, "that theory's been dead ever since Chapter 3 rolled around!" "WAIT, CHAPTERS?" "you wouldn't get it."

"alright, Jerry and So Sorry? ...i'm not going to say what you have done, but you will deserve your fate." The Knight flips Jerry off, and makes it back to their Armchair

The Knight rests on their Arm Chair of Evil (TM), as they explain their evil plan to the ones in the cages. they call out for their helper: "JOHN!"

John Mantle came out, handling the Flipchart, but also gives the Knight a tinfoil hat.

"alright, here's the rundown. so, my name is the Roaring Knight. I want to destroy the world, by bringing forth the Roaring. do you know what the Roaring is? Darkness engulfs the world and all Darkners die. why do I want that to happen? ...reasons. you people are Lightners, who will live in chaos after the Roaring happens. i've tried to do it once in Chapter 4- NO QUESTIONS! but these three idiots stopped me! apparently they're the 'delta warriors' or some shit. after the Roaring happens, i'll be resting here in the bunker, sipping on a nice Cake by The Ocean. (AN: that is a reference to a drink called 'Sex on The Beach')"

John flips the page once again, revealing the board for Bumps and Grinds (AN: an adult board game by Diplomat Sales Co.).

"wh-wha, how did that get there!?" the Knight gets a blush on their face as John Mantle flips the page again. "and that's my plan."

(not finished)

Notes:

now that we're at the end of this chapter, i can tell you that the title of the chapter was a direct reference to Linkin Park!

Notes:
