Omega Flowey held the red soul in his giant palms. Chara's soul.

The human had fallen to the floor, unconscious. Other Sans ran up to her and cradled her in his arms.

"Sweetheart? Can you hear me?" He asked worriedly. "Please say somethin'!"

The girl stirred and pried her eyes open, their color back to their original maroon. She looked around slowly, before her eyes finally landed on the skeleton. "H-hey. I hope I didn't scare you to bad." She smiled. "But we got rid of the soul problem!"

He stared at her for a moment, before he cracked a smile. He hugged her to his chest. "Thank God you're alright."

Frisk got her jacket on again, and turned her head to see Chara's soul. "So... we have seven human souls now. Does that mean that we can break the barrier?"

Omega Flowey shook his head. "We could, but it's not a good idea to use their soul. Once the barrier is broken, the souls will be able to roam free in this world, and we can't take that chance with Chara again. We have to kill them."

'Dang...' Sans awed.

Omega Flowey turned to the skeleton and human, eyes filled with sadness. "Sans. Could you... could you kill Chara again for me?"

Other Sans looked up at him in surprise. "Why me?"

Omega Flowey looked away. "I don't have it in myself to kill them. They're still my sibling, after all. And I still love them. Even if they turned into a monster."

Other Sans turned his pinpricks down in sorrow. "Sorry, but my magic's kinda zapped right now. It'll take a while to get back my energy."

"I'll do it," Frisk said.

Both skeleton and giant flower flinched back in shock.

Frisk nodded. "I'll do it. But, Flowey, you have to promise me that you won't kill yourself once I do."

Flowey flinched again, and remained silent for a moment. Finally he spoke. "O-of course I won't. I still have to heal you, too. I mean, you're covered in wounds and—"

"Even after that!" Frisk clarified.

Omega Flowey went silent again. "O-oh. Of course... Fine. I won't kill myself."

"Promise!" Frisk shouted.

"I promise."

Frisk sighed and nodded.

'Kid, are you really sure you wanna do this?' Sans asked. 'I mean, I know you don't wanna hurt anyone and—'

'If killing one person means that I save hundreds, or thousands of lives, then I think I can do it,' she stated.

'Alright then. You have my full support.'

Frisk took the red soul from Omega Flowey's giant hands and walked to an open area of the Judgement Hall. She set it down and took a few steps back before holding her bloodied hand out at it. She summoned a huge Gaster Blaster in front of her and aimed it directly at the soul. As the energy gathered in the Gaster Blaster's maw, tears pricked her eyes.

"NO WAIT!! STOP!!"

Frisk put her arm down in surprise, the energy in the maw dispersing harmlessly.

Omega Flowey rushed passed the girl and carefully cradled the red soul. "CHARA! I'M SORRY!!!" He cried. "I WON'T DO THAT AGAIN!! PLEASE! PLEASE FORGIVE MEEE!!!!"
