Whee! Undertale stuff! Fun, right? Nope. This is genocide shenanigans. Based off a completely different point of view than what I wrote about yesterday. Anyways, here we go.
--------
Ryan was a human. He fell down. Down into a place that very few humans have ever been. He'd heard it was a land full of monsters. That scared him. He'd heard it was a 'Kill or be Killed' world. That scared him. But yet he didn't stop. He should've just run away in tears, hiding. But something was there, pushing him along. He came to the conclusion that if he couldn't stop going, he had to protect himself. After all, monsters may act nice, but in the end they would kill people and ruin everything. That's what the movies and stories said. So he used whatever he could find. He started to kill them. He started to save lives. After all, they would knock him down to near death so much. He kept going. But still, they were all out for him. For a second, he stopped in a house. The monster there, was trying to keep him safe. And there was something about her, that felt sincere. But still, he found out she was keeping secrets. She was a liar, just like Ryan thought monsters were. So he did what needed to be done and moved on. There he saw the flower. It called him empty. Ryan said he wasn't empty. It called him not human. Ryan told the flower that he was a human. It called him some other things. He wasn't quite sure what the Flower meant. He said he wanted to end the world. But then Ryan agreed. He wanted to end this world he fell into as well. Then, all the monsters would be gone, and humans could be in peace. And the flower, Ryan thought. He left the ruins, and moved on to protect more humans. Eventually, he became strong. He could feel it. That he was stronger than most anyone else. He was getting happier whenever a monster showed up, as time passed. After all, most of them were liars and cheats. They all tried to fight him. He just was stronger, because he wanted to protect humanity. And there was that thing he felt. He wasn't quite sure what to call it. But he kept going because of it. It seemed to tell him,"Determination." Of course he was determined. He is the one person capable of protecting humanity from monsters. So he kept moving.
--------
Flowey was confused. At first, he was certain that the boy was the Ryan he remembered. He still acted the same way. And he still agreed to work with him. That all felt right. But watching the boy, he did seem different too. As he kept going though, Flowey noticed, Ryan became more and more Ryan. He looked happier, and everything. Towards monsters, he truly was empty. He was just as certain to end this world as him. So this Ryan, even if he was different, was still mainly Ryan.
--------
Ryan finally arrived at the Capital, and in a small house.  There he met the flower. The flower told him what he had felt. Ryan agreed, no monster could make you feel something. Ryan understood this flower's pain. After all, they both had been hurt by these monsters. Then the flower said,"People like us, wouldn't hesitate to kill each other."
"Are you a monster?" Ryan asked in response.
"I'm a flower." Flowey responded.
"You better be telling the truth. Because if not..." Ryan said. He desperately needed somebody to be able to talk to, something that wasn't a monster. And this flower, even if it was crazy, fit what Ryan wanted. He needed a friend. Although, either way, he wouldn't be alone much longer. He would see humans again soon.
The flower ran away, something about Ryan was wrong. He was still there, but there was something else too. Something 'different'.
--------
The flower had helped him. The King of Monsters was dead. It was time to rejoice. The flower was trying to tell him stuff he already knew. Of course, they were partners. The flower was the person he needed.
"Please, don't kill me." He said.
"Don't..." Ryan was cut off by the sound of his own knife cutting the flower to pieces. But he hadn't moved. And then he was there.
"Greetings."
Ryan was shocked. What had just happened?
"I am Ryan."
"No, you aren't. I'm me." Ryan said, uncertainly.
"Thank you. Your power awakened me from death."
"What do you mean?" Ryan said, still confused.
"My 'human soul'."
"What?"
"My 'determination'."
"You can't be Ryan. You can't be me."
"They were not mine, but YOURS."
"What do you mean? What did I do for you?"
"At first, I was so confused. Our plan had failed, hadn't it?"
"I never made a plan with you!"
"Why was I brought back to life?"
"I don't even know who you are? I am me! Nobody else!"
"You. With your guidance, I realized the purpose of my reincarnation. Power."
"No, I was saving humans!"
"Together, we eradicated the enemy and became strong."
"I didn't do what I did with you're help. It was me and him, never you!"
"HP. ATK. DEF. GOLD. EXP. LV."
"What does that even mean?"
"Every time a number increase, that feeling... that's me. 'Ryan'"
"No, this isn't true! I'm a hero of humanity. Saving the world from monsters!"
"Now. Now we have reached the absolute. There is nothing left for us here."
"Monsters are gone the world is saved. I'm going back to the real world of humans." It was then Ryan realized it. The feeling that pushed him forward. Was that coming from him?
"Let us erase this pointless world, and move on to the next."
"Everything! I can't ERASE everything. Than everything I did for humanity would be for nothing!"
"No? Hmm... How curious. You must have misunderstood. SINCE WHEN WERE YOU THE ONE IN CONTROL?"
"I've always controlled myself! I'm a hero!" He felt himself almost die. He should be dead. But he wasn't. Instead, he decided that he would FIGHT one last time. To finish his journey, and save humanity, Ryan was filled with his own Determination,"I have become a hero! No faker will stop me now!"
--------
Ending A
He stabbed at the other Ryan.
"Fine. See your 'human' world."
Ryan, looked shocked as the other him literally disappeared when he slashed into him. So Ryan then headed up to the barrier, and broke it using his own pure strength, he thought. He walked outside to see everything, and after a long walk arrived at a town. He looked around,"Huh? Since when was everyone a monster?"
--------
Ending B
The fight shouldn't have even been possible. Ryan was supposed to be a vessel for Ryan by this point.
But his soul wouldn't give up. It fought against everything it was meant to be. And in the end, Ryan won,"See. I'm saving humanity no matter what."
"Hahahaha. It'll be funny. Even without me, you're still never going to be the same. You're a murderer. You killed me, another human."
"By now, do you really think taking one life to save all the others would haunt me." Ryan said,"I didn't kill all those dangerous monsters only to stop at you. Heck, look at how you've acted and what you've done. You're just as much a monster as everyone else down here was. It was just finishing the job." Ryan just walked away, leaving the other to die. With all the souls he'd collected, he'd walk right through the barrier. And then he saw the real world. It reminded him of why he did everything. It was all worth it. "I've done it! I've saved every human." And then, he started to smile a bit differently,"And I killed every monster. But that only saved one world. If he could move across worlds, than maybe I can as well! I'll save every human. And kill every monster in every world! Than humanity will be the happiest it can ever be!"
--------
In other words, no matter what you do, killing everyone always turns you insane. Don't murder people guys. It's not good. This was honestly kind of what I thought happened when I first watched the Genocide run. I thought that it was 'Chara' in the green shirt that killed Flowey and talked to your character. So that maybe you're character wasn't so horribly evil. That's actually what I first thought when I saw the ending. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed, or maybe less enjoyed and more found it interesting.
