OCTale: Pacifist [Editing]

25) The Truth, Part 1 ⭐️

I LIVE!
This chapter is in two parts (Like YBN and Finale).
First half is the Sam date, second half is the True Lab owo

Also, happy 1 year anniversary to this book! Woo!

Somehow I doubled the chapter length by Tyler figuring out what happened and taking boat rides

I wake up gasping in the flowerbed. I clutch my throbbing head in pain, and carefully make myself stand. I lean against a throne for support.

Wait.

I've done this before...

I'm back in the throne room...?

I look up and see natural light coming through cracks in the rocks. The door ahead must lead to...

Asgore...?

I walk into the next room and poke my head around the door. Asgore stands strong, waiting for me with the six souls in glass jars again.

He looks over his shoulder and spots me.

"Are you ready? If you are not, I understand. I am not ready either. If you have any unfinished business, please do what you must." His surly voice echoes across the walls. I point towards the way I came, gesturing 'I have something to do.'

"Ah. I see. Take as much time as you need." Asgore smiles as I leave the castle through the elevator.

Soon enough, I arrive back in front of Sam's lab.

(*Ring...)

I pick up the phone, wondering who it is.

"Hey human! How's it going?" I hear Crimson yell down the receiver. I grin,

"I'm fine Crimson. Why are you calling?" I ask.

"Woah, did you get a new phone? The signal sounds like I'm right there with you! Anyway, I need you to deliver this letter for me. It's for, uh...D-Dr. Sam. So get over here and I'll give it to you!" Crimson explains happily. I can just imagine her grinning on the other end.

(*Click...)

Crimson hangs up just as I board the Riverperson's boat.

"Snowdin, please! Oh, by the way, I never caught your name...." I chirp.

As we ride the waters, the hooded figure answers my question.
"Tra la la. What's my name? It doesn't really matter..."

I sigh as we arrive at Snowdin.
"Thank you Riverperson."

"Any time, tra la la."

I take a shortcut through the igloo tunnels to get to Castellar's house quicker. The assertive skele-girl waves over at me ecstatically, and Crimson holds an envelope behind her back.

"Hey human! You actually came. Here's the letter." Crimson hands me the letter, and I shove it in my pockets.

"Crimson, why don't you go deliver it yourself, if you don't mind me asking?" I ask politely.
