It's a beautiful day outside, birds are singing... Flowers are blooming. The golden light bounces off the pillars, ground and walls. You are leaning against a pillar, waiting for the kiddo to come through. You saw them kill your brother. You're pissed, sure. But is there really a point..? No, what are you thinking. Of course there's a point. To avenge them to-
Speak of the devil. The human enters the judgement hall. They SAVE and walk forward. You stand up and go to your usual spot. Here we go.
- · - · -
"so you've been busy, huh?"
You say with your normal tone. Staring at the human, they're covered in dust. Their LV is quite high, too...
"i've got a question for ya. do you think, that the worst person... can change, if they just try..?"
They just stand there- no changed expression. Still umoving and blank. Not like you expected an answer, anyway.
"i've got a better one. do you wanna have a bad time? if ya take one more step forward... you really won't like what happens next."
Of course, being as stubborn as they are, they take a step forward. You expected it, and sigh.
"sorry, goat lady. this is why i don't keep promises."
The encounter begins, and they slash at you with their knife. You step to the side, causing them to miss. Something Undyne or the rest CAN'T do, apparently. The human seems to be a bit shocked. Your eyelights go out, and you use your blue magic to throw them against the wall, and right after they land, bones spring out-- they are hit, and your eyelights come back.
"heh, did'ja think i'd just stand there and take it? 'course not. having 1 hp is pretty terrible, ya know?"
Another slash. You dodge, obviously. You decide to use your strongest attack at them, and do a bunch of huge and small blasters at em. You're still trying to play fair, atleast. Another slash. Dodge. Suprisingly, they begin to speak.
"It's funny. You only decide to do your job now, rather than before..? I bet you enjoyed seeing your brother turn to dust, same with everyone else."
You send more bones their way. Obviously you're hella pissed at the kid for turning your loved ones to dust. But what's anger going to do in a battle against someone who can't even die? You've been stalking them for a while. You always sense a weird deja vú at some moments- but thanks to some previous info, you know that means they died and came back. Another slash. Miss.
"And now you're not talking? Guess that means we're both psychopaths th-"
"save it. of course i didn't enjoy that. we're nothing alike, ya brat." You say with an enraged voice, and your right eye flashed blue-yellow. You throw more blasters at the kid. Their dodging is inconsistent. You then turn them blue and make them jump over some bones.
"No need for the name-calling, Sans." They attack you again. Dodge.
"heh, when did you care about manners, kiddo?" Eyelights back to normal. More bones and platforms...
"Just about now. It's not nice to be rude, you know." Another slash. Dodge. "..After all, your beloved brother would agree."
"shut it." Your eyelights go out.
You attack with your blasters. They're low HP, why haven't they healed yet? Your right eye flashes blue-yellow again. If they're not gonna keep themself at a decent HP, may aswell take advantage of it. You start shooting more blasters at them, and a ton more bones. They get a few times, but how the hell are they not tired of running around?
"You know, Sans. I know you have a ton of hidden secrets.You knew something was off about me. Why not tell anyone else." Another slash. Dodge.
"and what makes ya think that i'll share anything with ya? you're one hell of a moron."
Your eyelights go out involuntarily and you keep shooting blasters. A few beads of sweat on your head. How the hell do skeletons even sweat? We don't even have sweat glands. You think to yourself. Curse your memory and knowledge.
"Getting tired, Sans? Just accept your death. Makes it a lot easier."
"..nah. i may be lazy, but i ain't that lazy to let'cha go straight to fluffybuns. real nice guy. always gives tea." You want to try something. You fill the box with bones. It's an undodgeable attack. You shrug. Ya need to play dirty to survive. To avenge them. Paps... Undyne... Hell, even the nice lady behind the door. Their soul shatters.
- · - · -
"..wow, kiddo. you look pissed. not as pissed as i am, though! let's get this over with." They slash at you. Dodged. You fire bones at them. They're not hit, and that sense of deja vú is coming back at you real bad.
They look totally enraged. You know they died, though. But why are you getting this... Feeling..?
"You... DIRTY CHEATER!!!" They exclaim. You were so busy in your thoughts, good thing you dodged last second.
"woah there kiddo, now what'd someone like me do?
"YOU!!! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT!"
You fire a barrage of bones at them. You know you've been off the script, somehow. Same with the human too, though. A few drops of sweat form thinking about it.
"do what? i'm just a tired gal, that's all." You shrug.
They are hit a lot, most of the bones hit them, and you suprise them with a blaster at the end of your attack. Their soul shatters again.

You lean against a pillar, and watch them walk closer. You don't wanna give a pep talk on RESETing yet. Yet. 5th time would do.
"heh, 3rd time makes the charm... am i right? Your eyelights go out. that's a joke. if ya think i won't play any tricks, you're stupid.
"Tch... You'll never see your brother again." Their voice is actually filled with hatred.
"don't bring him up. he isn't involved in this." You tense up. Maybe that pep talk would change the subject.
"He's what pushes you to be here, isn't that right? It's why you say "he's so cool", "best bro"- yes?" They say with fake concern in their voice. The human is trying to trick you. Don't fall for it, don't fall for it...
"guess you could say that." You have a problem. You just realized you haven't made any puns yet... guess that human really did affect you.
"Hmph. Still not spilling the tea, or anything about yourself?" They cross their arms. Knife still in hand, though.
"ahem. this place isn't meant for chit-chat, buddy. you've met-a-ton of people, and you killed em all. let's just get to the point, like those 2 other times, yeah? You close one of your eyes and your eyelights go out too. The human's expression goes slightly annoyed.
"That was a pun, wasn't it. No matter. I'll be glad to dice you into peaces." They point their knife at you, arms uncrossing.
"humerus, guess my awesome sense of humor got'cha too. hehe."
You summon bones at them. Dodged. You do your strongest attack, and they survive on 5 HP. KR, really strong. Eh? They slash at you. You dodge. Was that supposed to be a suicide sentence, because you blaster them. Soul breaks. Again.

"4th time, eh? aren'tcha tired..? reset, kid. i'm warnin' you. i'd gladly be here until the end of time to deal with a person like you. not sure about you, kiddo. just a warning. so please. You say with actuall worry in your voice. But whatever. You sigh, knowing they won't budge.
...
"Fine. I'll do your stupid happy ending. I just want to more about you, though. You're one interesting guy."
"w-wha..? are you... joking?" You say with a shocked voice. Your eyelights are smaller. And here you thought it'd need more convincing to get them to reset. And that condition isn't that bad, either. Small thing for a big thing. For you, atleast.
"What's the problem, tough guy? You seem shocked. I won't do it, then." They smirk, knowing you're obviously going to get a reaction outta that. Well, guess it's fair.
"please do it. i don't want any more of this stupid bullshit, okay? i'm just... shocked, ya know..?" Your eyelights return to normal, you're still a bit tense– what if they just do another genocide? Well, goodie you won't remember, but that deja vú is a terrible feeling. Fair.
"Hehe. It's funny seeing you worry. Fine, though. I'll just rewrite a few strings of code to make you remember. I know you haven't gotten my name yet, Sans. I'm Frisk."
"uh, bet'cha already know me. okay then. well, that's that then? reset now, please???" A few sweat glands form at your head. wow. What an interesting timeline, heh. As if you even remembered anything.
"... Okay, then. Since you asked so kindly." The RESET bytton appears behind her. You sigh. Finally. You can see your bro again, talk to that nice lady behind the door, and be yourself. Somewhat. They click it.
