X!Gaster looked on at the screen, clearly displeased with the outcome of Chara. Still, he decided to keep his calm, as Creastroyer fumed. But Creastroyer had an idea, one that could help out with they're attempts to find Flowey:

Remind Flowey of who he was before he and Asriel split.

That way, it would be the perfect candidate for death and devastation. A weapon forged in fire.

He named it... Yami Flowey. [Writer's notes: yes, we're using Yu-gi-oh references with the word 'Yami']

With the anger that still fuelled Flowey inside, now that Creatroyer observed, he just had to convince Flowey to join them, so that together they can take over the multiverse... nay, the omniverse, in they're image.

After putting the finishing touches on Yami Flowey's vessel, by marking a few fake black scars made of ink and dipping him in fire to harden, Creastroyer set himself back, proud of his new creation. He smirked, then he used some power to energise Yami's soul, making him sentient, and active.

''....where am i....?'' Yami Flowey looked to scan his surroundings with only his eyes, but he saw Creastroyer in front of him.

''arise, my creation... now, you must be wondering why I brung you, forged in fire'' Creastroyer began. ''well... I made you with a purpose: destruction''

''...what will I destroy?'' Yami Flowey was curious, with a smirk on his face, one that was an indication of his loyalty.

''well, my creation, I am so glad you have asked. You are to find your actual counterpart, and you are to leave him for dead or he joins. Or he joins or you leave him for dead. Should have worded that better'' Creastroyer explained. He then flipped the billboard, using his paintbrush to paint the instructions.

Yami Flowey was soon put on a training session that lasted a few good hours, just so he can grow accustomed to his abilities, and so that he can think on his feet on and off the battlefield. Creatroyer looked in amusement and excitement as he saw how Yami adapted. He must have made his creation work too well...

Yami Flowey finally got tired after a while, resting his head on the training dummy, huffing and puffing. He must had enough durability and endurance and stamina to have had battled for this long. Soon, he went to sleep.

Creastroyer watched him take his slumber, smirking, satisfied with the training. Once Yami Flowey was no longer tired, he could unleash him onto the real Flowey.

Meanwhile

Frisk took a deep breath, and before long, he finally summoned both his sword and shield without fault. He was amazed at this revelation. He used his sword to hit the training dummy.

''I did it... took me a lot of practise...'' Frisk said, with a happy smile. He then made his sword and shield fade into nothing, as if recalling them, and sat on the couch. He and Sans joked for a good bit, before Chara sat down on the couch.

''I'll leave you kids to it.'' Sans said. He then 'shortcutted' out of there.

Chara sat next to Frisk, still a little worried for him, even after she was brung back.

''Frisk? Sweetie you seem... tense'' she said. ''we have the raid going on soon, and we have to be prepared for it, so we can stop that damn madman''

''it's just... I've been through so much because you were gone.... Torn from me...'' Frisk felt himself have a few tears, and he hugged her, getting his face in her chest.

Chara patted him, a concerned look. ''it's just, you've shown me that not all humans are the same as I believed. I wouldn't have been any different without you. But... tell me, sweetheart... do you want to save them all? Do you want to go back to mother and father and have butterscotch pie once it's finally over?'' Chara said, a rhetorical question, she knew what Frisk's answer was.

''y-yeah...'' Frisk said. ''I feel like I'm weak, rejecting my morals for the sake of the happy ending the multiverse deserves''

''look, the world, let along a whole universe, is not just sunshine and rainbows. There's always going to be something, anything, that conflicts anyone. But it's always going to be stopped if enough effort is put in'' Chara spoke, holding Frisk close. ''promise me you'll be a big boy, that we'll get through this together''

''I promise'' Frisk said. He soon just sat on the couch, needing a nap, to which Chara left him to do so, kissing his forehead before leaving.

The raid onto Creastroyer was almost ready. Ink and Error just had to have the right tactics...

[Writer's notes: I had to make 2 chapters this week to make up for not releasing any chapters last week. I think I'll do so next week two, to keep my promise and the goal that I would finish this by the time of the 10th anniversary of Undertale. I have... 7 or 8 months.... Hehe....]
