Error:"Hi."
Monster Kid: "Hi."
Dickhead who doesn't even deserve to be named : "Hi."
____________________________________________________________

The monster kid was running past the waterfall as fast as he could . The sound of explosions and screams erupted behind him but he didn't dare to look back. He couldn't tell where he was going for his eyes were blurry from the heavy tears .

'Why ...... why did it have to come to this ?'
He thought to himself as he continued running . His black and red striped shirt was covered in dirt and dust while his legs were filled with scratches when he accidentally fell down. He was so focused on escaping , he didn't notice that the sounds had stopped.

All of a sudden, he tripped on something and without the support of arms, he had no choice but to accept his fall. With an "Oof", he fell on the muddy floor. He grumbled to himself as he panted heavily from all the running. He blinked his eyes several times until he realised the silence around him. He looked back in reflex and his pupils shrinked at the sight before him. He didn't trip on a usual stick or stone just now . No, he tripped on a line of blue string that was in his ankles level.

The monster kid tried to get up as soon as possible but it was too late .
A black figure emerged from the shadows. The glitching black figure had unusal red eyesockets and blue lines falling under his eyes . His red finger tips clanked together as he played with the blue strings on his fingers . He wore a red sweater with a black jacket stitched together with blue clothing , yet the red spots and small specks of dust did not come off.

The 6'3 feet tall monster walked towards the kid in a steady speed as he looked down at the tiny figure with a deep frown, containing sorrows that the kid couldn't read through nor anyone else to be honest.

The monster kid started scooting backwards in panic but was met with a large wall with no posibility of escaping. He was now being cornered by the adult monster. His tears rolled down his chin non - stop as his ears started ringing with only the sound of his rapid beating soul available. He couldn't turn away from the figure in front of him,the same monster who had killed everyone in the Underground . His lips started quivering yet no sound came out . He wanted to scream, to shout but he knew that no one could save him from his undeniable fate .

Before he noticed , his soul had popped out and blue strings started to tighten around it. The monster kid didn't want to die, he wanted to live even if the Underground was a shitty place. He still had so much to live for, so much to do. He closed his eyes shut , waiting for the pain to begin.

'...... but I guess I didn't have a choice.'
With that said, the strings shattered his heart ...... but it didn't hurt ...He opened his eyes in shock as he looked down. Yes, it was true. He was dusting but the feeling of dread and pain never came . When his soul shattered, it wasn't painful at all but just uncomfortable . He leaned his head back on the concrete wall as he slowly blinked his eyes . On the 5th blink , he saw a glowing figure. The glowing figure walked towards the child but he didn't flinch as he knew exactly who it was .

"Mummy , .... "
He whispered as he closed his eyes with his last tear dropped on the floor but he felt no sadness. Instead, he felt warm and glad , glad that the nightmares of living in the Underground were finally over . He smiled slightly , something that he forget he could do for a very long time .

"....... I wanna go home .. ..... " With that said, his body collapsed and the only things that remained were a black and red shirt, and a large pile of dust, no one to grieve for and no one to remember. If people see it, they'll feel bad or feel sorry for the poor dead soul, but they were wrong. For the child could not be more happier to find peace in the end with his family reunited in the afterlife. But then again......who would even notice the dust anyway? After all, there's not a single monster left.......

Error looked down at the pile of dust on the floor . He stood still with the image of the kid replaying over and over again in his mind . His whole body started to shake and his breath hitched in panic, couldn't look away from the dust pile right in front of him. His eyesockets lost light for a split second before returning back normal but it didn't change anything.He dropped on his knees as tears flowed down his skull while clawing his skull, leaving marks and dust to fall yet the destroyer could care less about the pain.He kept his emotions in the whole time, but now that he 's finally alone, he could finally
let it all out . He covered his face with his bony hands but the tears didn't stop flooding . No one could determine what he was speaking as all the words he said were accompined by hiccups and tears. But if you listened carefully , you could still pick up some words from him , "I'm sorry ... .... I had to ...... Forgive me . .....I'm sorry ...... "

Error always had a soft spot for children, he loved the Charas more than anything. Killing children was the worst thing imaginable for a parent yet that's exactly what he needed to do . His heart sunk with guilt and hatred for his doings . He wanted this loop to stop ,to end. He hated this more than anyone. He could still recall every single detail of their petrified looks, the high-pitched screams escaping from their teary lips. How they begged for mercy that Error was sure he wasn't able to give. How the memories haunted his nightmares was dreadful and concerning for his loved ones.

Error knew how worried his friends would be by his actions but he knew overcoming it was a bigger challenge. Despite how persuasive his friends could be, he just couldn't shake off the guilt, self-hatred and self-insecurity. And it seemed to just overwhelm him more by their worrisome frowns. Error didn't think he could maintain his mental stability any longer . Even if he's doing this for the sake of the multiverse and his family , it still pains him just as much as the victims every time . He wanted to end this cycle, end this fate and finally end his-

" Yo, finally that's over. That brat was very annoying anyway , so glad he's dead. Oh hey , you're the one who did all the killing , right ? Yeah , thanks for taking out the 'trash' for me . Those idiots had it coming. Say , wanna team up ? I could really use a ride back home right now , what do you say ?" Error didn't even bother to look back as he took out the Jerry's soul, and shattered it in one go. Leaving the body to dust with no one to even feel bad for. (Asshole had it coming 😒)

Killing Jerries on the other hand was not a problem for Error at all. Error had calmed a lot down from his mental breakdown by Jerry's interruption. He stood back up and wiped off the tear stains on his skull. He took out a pink mirror with a yellow flower in the middle to make sure that he looked decent enough. Seeing the mirror, it brought back a fond memory of how the Charas were so anxious and excited to show off their present to their Duncle. The Charas were so glad to see him loving it and taking it everywhere with him, Error just couldn't bring himself to put it away. This mirror was also a reminder. A reminder that he was at least still worth a place in someone's hearts, something that Error didn't even realise he could accomplish. Error's teary eyes softened with a gentle smile crept on his face.

He put the lovely mirror back in his pocket and shook off the dust on his jacket. He grabbed a roll of paper from his pocket as he squinted his eyes. His eyesight had decreased significantly these few days, not that it was perfect anyway for as long as he remembered while being trapped in the Anti-void. Killer even joked about him having to find a new pair of glasses, being Science!Sans new twin and all. The words 'Underfell Copy #59219' had been freshly crossed out by red ink. Error had destroyed 25 AUS that day without any interruption from Ink nor the Original Council. It was truly odd but Error took no further notice to it. "Perhaps I could take an early day off and hang out with Nightmare and the others." With that in mind, Error relaxed a little and let out a deep breath. "Just one more," Error repeated in his head after taking the code of the abandoned universe and opened a portal to the next AU . "One more, then it will be done."

(Error, you just jinxed yourself,baby.....)
