Kris stood at the bright glowing, pure rainbow-ish fountain, as the glow was casted onto their, Ralsei's, and susie's face. ..

Finally. After such long, gut wrenching adventures, Yellow trying to commit suicide.. The pink fight.. Orange's wannabe human tatics, Blue's beautiful peformances, Seth and Aqua's teamwork, Green's.. Green, Flowery's "true act of friendship", The amount of back pain you had,

You could seal this for the better good.

( 𝘪𝘵 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘚𝘖𝘜𝘓 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘨𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨. . . )

Your soul treaded carefully towards the fountain, coming to a stop as the fountain began to glow a pure white that could of assaulted Susie's eyes, consuming the area in a pure bright porcelain.

After the brightness faded, You let out a small exhale through your nose. Keeping your eyes closed, You were expecting to be back at the light world, Maybe be at home, Even. you could finally rest..  Maybe even joke about susie later on.

You opened your eyes behind your dark blue,  messy bangs. Excepting for your fresh home with the scent of butterscotch pie your mother made.

What greeted your eyes.. Was.. Still an ruby yet dark area. You were.. 𝘚𝘵𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦? You blinked, rubbing your eyes.

... No. You werent hallucinating..

Susie finally spoke, her tone still having that grumpy edge but it was almost edged with confusion.

"..𝙒𝙝𝙮 𝙖𝙧𝙚 𝙬𝙚 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚?"

Ralsei was frozen in place. His pure white fur drooped down as his face was converted in pure horror. His voice was shaky when he spoke..

"𝙉𝙤..."

He clutched at his fur. Almost tugging on the wool. His horns twitched as his heartbeat sped.

Flowery stiffened in place. You could hear he was trying to sound confident when speaking, but his tone had a doubtful edge to it.

"𝙎𝙤𝙢𝙚𝙤𝙣𝙚.. 𝙅𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙖 𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙙 𝙛𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙖𝙞𝙣-?!"

The air dropped to a negative degree. You frowned.. More work to do? Asgore stiffened besides ralsei, Glancing around with his eyes scanning any sign of danger.

𝙐𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙡 𝙝𝙚 𝙨𝙖𝙬 𝙖 𝙗𝙡𝙪𝙧 𝙤𝙛 𝙗𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙠 𝙘𝙤𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙙𝙤𝙬𝙨 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙩𝙚 𝙇𝙐𝙉𝙂𝙀 𝙖𝙩 𝙝𝙞𝙢.

Before asgore could process it, The blur grabbed him and fleed. Dragging him away from the others, whom noticed. You, Flowery, Susie, and Ralsei ran forward a bit. Trying to get a closer view..

𝙔𝙤𝙪 𝙞𝙢𝙢𝙚𝙙𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮 𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙜𝙣𝙞𝙯𝙚𝙙 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙨 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙍𝙤𝙖𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙆𝙣𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩.

You heard Susie stammering, her voice more shaken and aggressive now.

"𝙃-.. 𝙃𝙀𝙔!!"

Flowery visibly stiffened. Almost processing the situation, before he finally stated something with his voice edged with a bit to much confidence for someone.

"𝙇𝙚𝙖𝙛 𝙞𝙩 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙚!"

(𝘈|𝘕; 𝘣𝘢 𝘥𝘶𝘮 𝘵𝘴𝘬.. 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘪𝘵.. 𝘰𝘬𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘴𝘩𝘶𝘴𝘩.)

Before any of them can react or protest, flowery charged forward. Stepping surprisingly fast with golden flower pathways helping the flower rush to the Knight, A rainbow gradient shadow of..himself. was following along him.

(𝘈|𝘕; 𝘪 𝘢𝘮 𝘶𝘯𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘵𝘶𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘸𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 𝘴𝘤𝘦𝘯𝘦, 𝘴𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘴𝘬𝘪𝘱. >:).. )

Flowery clutched the dark, sharp blade of the Knight's sword. Blocking it from hitting him directly. He felt a bead of sweat trickle down his temple, But he didn't care. He only focused on saving Asgore for the greater good. His voice sounded more shaky when he blurted out something. but he tried so hard to 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 confident.

"𝙎𝙚𝙚𝙢𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙡𝙡.. 𝘿𝙤𝙣𝙩 𝙜𝙚𝙩 𝙞𝙩!.."

𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘪𝘵! 𝘏𝘦 𝘫𝘶𝘴𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘧𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘥!

"𝙉𝙤𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙞𝙨 𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙤𝙣𝙜𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙣-.."

𝘏𝘦.. 𝘑𝘶𝘴𝘵.. 𝘏𝘢𝘥.. 𝘛𝘰.. 𝘚𝘵𝘢𝘺 -

𝙎 𝙇 𝘼 𝙎 𝙃.

...

𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵?

Before flowery could process it, The knight drew their blade upward, scratching his palm as the flower winced. instinctively finally letting go and clutching the deep, burning scars as a dark crimson trickled.

Before he could fight back, the knight swinged. Not directly at him on purpose, but the intense air of the swing pushed him back. Not crashing at the others, but to the flowers dark area of their patches.

The flowers were already in their humanoid form. All looking equally disturbed as much as he was. It was confirmed they were watching the scene the whole time, and only popped back to their forms once flowery let his guard down.

Green stood with a sorrowful expression. ready to heal him if needed. Blue grimaced with one of his eyes open, his ballet stance looking.. Shaken, Yellow wasn't even at his patch. He was already besides blue, clutching him and side glancing flowery with a nervous expression. Seths eyes were widen as aqua already hopped onto their arms. Whom.. Was oblivious to the situation, Orange stood on greens shoulder. Death glaring the knight down whom.. Was probably at a very long distance from them. It was like she was trying to be intimating.

Before the arrogant, golden flower standing in the center of them all could play it off..

𝘌𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘸𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘥𝘢𝘳𝘬.

The rest of the flowers and every single atom was casted in darkness. 𝘎𝘰𝘥, 𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘣𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘦𝘦! One minute he could see the others perfectly fine, the other was everything fading to black. He clutched his cape slung over his shoulder in defense. Ready to stand his ground if needed.

Then.. He suddenly felt a sharp pain behind his eyes. His vision blurs for a split second- His head suddenly felt like it was being cracked open. ( 𝘢|𝘯; 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘭𝘪𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺. )

"𝙒𝙝—" He stammered, feeling something... 𝘸𝘳𝘰𝘯𝘨 crawls up the back of his skull.

...It was far to painful to be considered a simple migraine.

Whispers creeped into his mind.. whispers that only 𝙝𝙚 could hear.  Whispers..  of the brutal actions the golden flower should give into.

The whispers.

𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘩𝘪𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴.

𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝙘𝙖𝙡𝙡𝙚𝙙 𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘮𝘪𝘯𝘥.

"Hurt them."  

"BREAK them."

"Don't you want to satisfy ℍ𝕀𝕄-?!"

"ℍ𝕦𝕣𝕥 𝕥𝕙𝕖𝕞 𝕒𝕝𝕝. 𝕋𝕙𝕖𝕪 𝕠𝕟𝕝𝕪 𝕤𝕖𝕖 𝕪𝕠𝕦 𝕒𝕤 𝕒 𝔻𝔼𝔽𝔼ℂ𝕋𝕀𝕍𝔼. " 

"JÚ§†. 𝓓𝓞. ιƚ." 

Flowery couldn't do anything. He could only stand in place with his entire body frozen as those god awful whispers kept gaslighting him. 

..Yet.

..he wondered what it felt like to be powerful once again. 

Before the flower could fight off him giving into-..

Everything went dark. 

When his eyes opened not to long after, He could see the flowers surrounding him. All, except well.. Green, asking questions in a panicked frenzy. Clearly concerned for his well being.. 

Except he was no longer himself anymore. 

Or, He was no longer in control of his body. 

He could only see from a far distance behind his eyelids. Watching..something peform as him.

Behind his eyelids, the golden flower could see Kris and Susie rush forward, both of them stiffening once they came to a stop. Ralsei followed them, but stayed at a far distance from the crowd. Staring ahead with a expression of dread. 

Dear, god. The prophecy had warned him about this.. 

He tried to stop it.. Really..

But..

There was no point in stopping fate, afterall.

Flowery could notice green reaching out their hand for his shoulder. They weren't speaking, as usual-.. But their expression told way more that they were worried for his being. 

Which made a gut twist in his chest even more. 

He didn't do anything at first, simply just had his head hang low where he stared at the ground.

Then, he finally tilted his head upward to gaze at the others. 

His eyes remained closed, as usual-.. But he no longer had a cocky, arrogant grin as usual. His arm hung limp at his side where he clutched his dark cape tightly. 

Then, Before anyone could process it-

Sharp, twisted vines with spikes flew out of flowerys spine. Tearing through small pieces at the back of his shirt. Not enough to tear it completely, Immediately shoving through the others as they were all pushed back.

Orange let out a small yelp before landing on blue's shoulder. Green quickly balanced themselves before they could fall, Blue as well as he quickly caught yellow in his arms, whom clutched his revolver tucked in his belt. Aqua slid onto the ground, rubbing the back of her head. The little girl quickly straightened up with her arms pulled close to her chest. Seth almost tripped down, but quickly caught themselves and instinctively clutched aqua's shoulder. 

Your eyes widen behind your bangs as you looked around, twisting your body to glance around, Susie stiffened besides you, spitting out some sharp grass in her mouth from being shoved backwards. She clutched her axe tightly, ready to put up a fight-.. Although she looked shaken. 

As for ralsei, he wasn't shoved since.. To much far of a distance, He stood with his arms shakily behind his clothing. His long, pink scarf fluttered in the more, intense cold air. 

You glanced around as you could see the spiked vines rushing at every direction swiftly. 

Blocking exits.

Blocking pathways. 

Blocking every single entrance. 

Every single pathway, entrance and exit was completely blocked by the twisted vines. 

Flowery remained unfazed. Standing in the center of it all as he finally tied his dark cape lightly around his neck. It fluttered in the air behind him as he spoke with a low, shaken tone. It was nothing like his usual composed, exaggerated voice. 

"..Dont you understand? Don't you see it?"

You could see flowery clench his fists. The fingernails forming into something sharper.. Slowly yet painfully forming into what seemed like.. Claws. 

"If it's His happiness or your destiny.."

His eyes snapped open. They weren't the usual lively olive green-.. No. They were something more piercing. Sharper. Pure, dark black with faint white slit pupils.

"if its your world or mine."

You notice his voice dropping to a distorted tone. Even more shaken then before. It sent a chill down your spine as he stated once again.

"тнєη ιтѕ KÌLL σя ßÈ KÌLLÈÐ."

You feel your SOUL having vietnam flashbacks.
