The Story of PestiTale

Epilogue

"Dum dee dum..." King ASGORE hummed, carefully watering the flowering that surrounded his grand throne. It was a nice, quiet day. Birds were chirping in a soothing melody. "Howdy!" a voice greeted. "Oh? Who is there?" Asgore calls out, still watering the flowers. "It's me!" the voice said. "...You'll need to give me just a second... I'm almost done watering these flowers," Asgore assured.

A few seconds pass by, before Asgore slowly turns around, "Yes? Who's there?" he calls out again, looking about. "Me! Down here, dad!" the voice chirped from below. Asgore's face droops slightly, "Oh..." he sighed, looking down. "BOO!!" Flowey exclaimed, face leaping out from the flowers. Asgore backs away a bit, not even that surprised.

"Did ya miss me? Did ya MISS... ME?! Oh ya have no idea, no ideeeaaa what wonders've occurred! I have done it, FINALLY!! Me, little old me, has won! I BEAT THE GAME, DAD!! ARE YA PROUD!! Hahahaha..." Flowey rambled, swinging his head in a pendulum's arc.

Asgore just stood still, "It was you who started that pandemic... wasn't it," he groaned, "WRONG!! That's a wrong, wrong, wroonggg answer there buddy!" Flowey mocked, "I only escalated it... I was the brains behind the operation and oh dear... the Human... the Human started it! They were the brawn, I WAS THE BRAINS!!" he cheered.

"Ya see... I was once just a small... evil... plotting flower... but then... a Human, with a nasty cold, just so happened to plonk down! They sneezed on me... which was gross... but, but! They gave me the deadliest weapon ever by doing so... and there it went! Those stupid Monsters... the smiley trash bag, the insolent bone for brains and your very own Captain of the Royal Flop... they didn't know what hit them!" Flowey told, making his face to resemble the faces of those he mentioned when he did.

"Hee hee... I even took out their main source of information, the Undernet... and it was WAY simpler to do than you'd possibly think at first!" Flowey added, "Gosh, your Royal Scientist didn't know what to do when just a handful of a few little helpers managed to overrun all of those towers hosting the Undernet, just because of a little technical flaw! It was hilarious to oversee... hilarious!" he taunted.

"Eventually though... boo hoo... my plan was foiled! The great Undyne had finally captured my vessel, my Human! She was going to bring them to you... buutt I made a little inconvenience for her to deal with... only about a few dozen of those brainless idiots, those undead dogs of war... and she was out of the way! The Human was conveniently weak enough for me to just... kill them. And now, here I nest, in your own hall... with the most terrifying power of all..." Flowey told...

"A DETERMINATION SOUL."

A red SOUL materialised in front of Flowey, shining bright. "Well... well played... you won, it seems," Asgore congratulated. "Aww, come on now, where's your enthusiasm! Your royal mistake, birthed from this very garden, harvesting the greatest power of all... and soon the other Human SOULs too! I'll be great! I'll be huge! I'll be what you always wanted to be... a god among Humans!" Flowey rambled.

The sounds of clambering noise echoed throughout the hall, seeming to originate from the corridor leading up to it. "I suppose so," Asgore agreed. The frantic moans and snarls soon filled the air, nauseating his ears with impending doom. "Very well, I bid you farewell... may you see Chara soon, father... boo hoo!" Flowey spat, before vanishing.

Asgore stared at the floor in front of his entrance, seeing the shadows of his former kind grow bigger and bigger...

"Maybe I will... son..." he thought, giving one last smile.

FIN.
