deltarune Chapter 3 (Theoretical Pacifist Route)

A New Dark World?

Kris felt a terrible ringing sound going through their head, they remembered that whatever that was possessing them last night created a new Dark Fountain inside of their home, then they were given back control of their body once Kris wakes up.

Kris then begins to slowly wake up, their crimson red eyes and black pupils hidden behind their hair bangs saw that they were in a slightly dark room, with a dimmed down light bulb.  They also noticed that they're in the Dark World appearance, once again dawning the knight armor, and their amber-yellow skin turned into cyan yet again.

Kris: "*groans*  Wh-Wha?"

Kris then began to lift their body from lying on the ground, they stood up, and started looking around the location they were currently in.

Kris: "What kind of Dark World is this?"

While observing, Kris comes across a SAVE point, so they walk up to it and calmly hold it towards their chest, giving off a gentle smile doing so.

Kris was glad that they still had their sword with them, so if something, or someone, were to come out of nowhere and attack them, they were ready to defend themselves.

Kris then starts to hear some footsteps around him.

Kris: "Who's there?!  Show yourself!!"

A dark figure starts to walk forward from the shadows up to them, Kris gets slightly scared at it and walks two steps backwards.

The dark figure then begins to raise his hand up in the air, Kris begins to think that who or whatever it is was about to attack them, but then the dark figure uses that same hand and snaps with their fingers.

???: "LIGHTS, CAMERA, ACTION!"

The room that both Kris and the once dark figure were in began to have all of its lights turned on, and the dark figure is revealed to be a bulky man with a static TV screen as their head, and a creepy smile coming from the screen, too.

The room that the two were in was a film set, displaying to be for a city located film.

???: "You must be my anticipated film star, care to help me with my filming projects?"

Kris: "Wh-What...the heck IS this?!"

???: "Oh, you haven't heard?  This whole place is the Dark World's finest film studio!  I am its astounding founder and owner of it.  Soon, I plan to use one of my latest film projects for world conquest from glorious hypnotization.  But alas, there haven't been any volunteers for those projects for awhile now.  Though for the likes of you, you...would be absolutely PERFECT for it!"

Kris: "N-Not a chance!  I...don't even have experience with acting."

???: "Oh, you don't?  Then allow me to fix that!"

The strange TV headed man begins to initiate a turn-based battle set in a theater, which is completely different to what Kris is used to.

Kris needed more answers on what the situation they're currently in is.

So Kris then successfully fled from the fight, and started running away from the strange TV headed man.

???: "Where are you going?  Come back, I say!"

Whoever the strange TV headed man was, they started to run after Kris, beginning a chase sequence.  Kris then makes a quick turn right, and finds an open locker, so they quickly get in it and close the door without making a sound.

???: "Where did ya go?"

The TV headed man begins to walk past the lockers, including the one Kris was hiding in.
