Stories of an Ex Forced God of Destruction

An End to the Cycle

Once again, they were at a stalemate. 

Ink was weaponless, his precious Broomie wrapped in blue strings high above their heads. To far to get to before Error moves it.

Error was Fate-bound, unable to hurt her dear, little darling Ink.

They stood in the remains of a copy AUs Judgement Hall, glaring at each other as they waited to see who would make the first move.

The paint guzzling skeleton never did have any patience. "Why do you do this, Error? What do I have to do to make you stop?!"

Error shrugged, fake insane smile never leaving his face. "StOp crEAti-inG thESe usEleSS aboMinAtioNs?"

Ink, surprisingly to Error, didn't respond with his usual "Never!". Instead he paused, rubbing his two brain cells together.

"Sooooo," Ink started. "if I stop creating, you'll stop destroying?"

"...YeS?"

"You promise?"

"WhAT aRe wE, tH-thRee?"

"Do you promise?"

"SuRe, yEAh, whY NOt?"

Under his breath. "What else do I have to lose."

Ink ignored the muttering, too quiet to hear at this distance. "Alright then! Then it's a deal! I'll stop creating!"

Error's brain short-circuited. "Wait, you were being serious?!"

Ink nodded, entering the classic Papyrus stance with scarf following in a non-existent breeze. "Of course! I think giving up creating is well worth stopping you, since nothing else seemed to work. I'll even let you keep Broomie as proof!" He paused and blinked, eye-lights changing to an exclamation mark and a question mark.

He pointed an accusing finger at Error. "Wait a second, your voice didn't glitch!"

Error was already panicking, fearing this was some kind of trick. "Who cares?! You are actually being serious right now, right? As in, give up your dumb brush serious?"

"Well, I am about that, but let's talk about your voice-"

"IT'S JUST A VOICE, WHAT DOES IT MATTER?! I've trying to get you to stop for literal aeons, and this is it?! Just a sure, why not?! I can't believe- You Toby damned- aaaAAAARRGGHH-"

*Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep*

Error. exe has stopped working. Reboot?

Ink blinked at Error, slightly shocked. Sure, he had seen Error crash before, but not in this kind of situation. It was actually kind of funny.

Acting without thought, Ink clicked the reboot pop up in front of Error. He then shot Broomie down with a rainbow firing Gaster Blaster, catching it before it hit the ground. He then wrapped it in Error's strings and tied it to Error's back, keeping his promise.

Next, he picked up Error surprised at how light he was despite the fact they were the same height (as long as Ink was wearing his shoes). He then opened a portal to the Star Sans's secret base (that Error had already been too) and took Error to the large meeting hall, popping him down in Blue's seat next to his own, after placing Broomie on the table in front of him. (Let's pretend Ink doesn't need Broomie to open portals, just to create universes)

Now what?

/Dream would know what to do./

Ink grabbed his phone ringing Dream.
