Undertale Awakening: Inspired Reality

Ch.12 On A Mission

Some time later...

"So basically we're going in with no plan or weapons." Reaper says dead pan.

We were all sitting at the dining table together thinking about what we could do to help my family while not being captured. Honestly, we were at a huge disadvantage. We had no idea who we were meeting, what they wanted, we were on a timer so we had limited time to plan, and they had leverage on us. Plus, they were willing to shoot without hesitation. Basically a worst case scenario. Though I did have some ideas on what we could do, it was nothing concrete. We would have to wing it for the most part. Our only advantage was even if they knew about Reaper, Furby #149, and the bitties they couldn't see Reaper, let alone harm him and they likely didn't see the bitties and Furby as any real threat. Though I wouldn't unlease a Furby on even my worst enemy. That's a terrible way to go. I will probably need to figure out if I need to feed them though, and if so how I would go about that without using random people's souls. I'll put that on the back burner.

"Ya pretty much. We don't really have any options. We do have a few cards up our sleeves, but we will still need to play by their rules. I'm not any more happy about the situation than you are, but we can only do so much. And, I don't want you to be forced to take any actions. It's best you just stay invisible and track down my family to make sure their safe. I'll have to deal with the rest on my own."

"You can't actually expect me to leave you on your own with people who could kill you in the blink of an eye! Especially in your current condition!" Reaper exclaims.

The bitties looked listening to the conversation take place. They were unsure of what condition Reaper was talking about, but decided they would be told when it was necessary for them to know. "I do and you will. I need to be able to handle the situation without worrying about if my family is ok the whole time. And if you stayed with me, you would probably take me out the moment things start to get dicey. The whole situation is dicey." I tell him.

"Cat- I mean Aster, has a point. We will stay with her to make sure she stays safe. I've fought humans with guns before and I'm sure I can handle it now, even if I'm a tad rusty. We will make sure the two of you are reunited. That is a promise." Carber promises as the two other bitties nod in agreement.

"You three better. I don't like this, but I'll be counting on you then." Reaper says seriously.

"How much longer do we have?" Moon asks.

I check my phone. "About ten minutes left. We should probably start to get going. It's best we are a bit early than fashionably late. It would show we're taking them seriously. Reaper you mind teleporting us? I would rather not open a portal in the area." I say.

"Sure, though I'm not sure how you three bitties will react to the way I travel." Reaper comments.

"We'Ve DoNe It BeFoRe WiTh OuR OwN ReApEr. It WaS FaR FrOm PlEaSAnT, BuT We MaNaGeD. ThEn AgAiN, ThE BeTwEeN WaS FiLlEd WiTh OvEr DuE SoUlS In OuR OrIgInAl MuLtIvErSe, So It PrObAbLy WoN'T Be As BaD." String comments. Famous last words.

I quickly shift back into my human form. "Let's get going then. I'll put Furby #149 in my inventory and you three can hide in my jacket. This may be a bumpy ride." I say picking up the Furby and placing them in my inventory.

The three bitties teleport to different parts of my shoulders or head, before climbing into my hood. I look to Reaper and reach out. He takes my hand and pulls me close to him. "Hold on tight." Reaper says before everything goes black.

For a brief moment everything is silent, then the screams began. It was like thousands of voices screamed in a cacophony of agony in unison. Then came the arms. They began to reach out to us, but before they could grab on there was light. I let out a shaky breath. "Holy ship and tweenkies..." I say shakily.

"What In The Name Of Toby Fox Was That! That was so much worse than in our old verse!" Moon exclaims.

"It seems theirs ALOT of over due souls. This world's Reaper or DEATH must be working overtime to reap them all considering how big this world is and how many seem to die so quickly." Reaper says, hoping he won't have to help out, but knowing his luck knew he'd probably have to help at some point.

"All who wish to pretend what we just experienced never happened, say I." I say.

"I!" "I!" "I!" "I!" "I!"

"Glad we're all in agreement. Now moving on to the matter at hand. The warehouse is just up the road. Reaper, you go on ahead. You can keep an eye on how I'm feeling through the bond, but otherwise concentrate on your task. I'll head up their on my own, got it?" I say, and Reaper nods before going on ahead.

I put my hands in my pockets and start walking to the warehouse as casually as possible. After a few minutes I make it to the location. The gate to the warehouse was open so I just walk right in. I take my hands out of my pockets when I reach a set of large doors and knock. Slowly they open and I'm meet with a older man dressed all in black. "Just in time. Come on in, we have business." The man said, signaling me to enter.

Well here we go. May the deities be with me.
