Regretting the Rise

2; Before the Stars

(No editing needed for this chapter)

Years and years ago, In FallenVerse 
“Chara!” Core!Frisk shouted throughout their small home Ink had built for them in the antivoid. Core!Chara, or Chara as most just addressed her, came stumbling down the hallway.
“I’m here Frisk, what time is it.” Chara asked their sibling who just rolled their eyes.
“Noon.” Frisk crossed their arms and stared at their sibling until what they had said fully sunk in.
“Shit! I had a meeting with Ink nearly an hour ago! Shit!” Chara quickly rushed back towards her room. Frisk held back laughs, lying about the time by nearly an hour. Yes Chara had a meeting with Ink, which was in about ten minutes.
“Wait a second! FRISK YOU LIAR!” it seems Chara had finally checked her clock. Frisk began cackling and left the house the second they heard Charas fast and angered footsteps.
“Ahh!” Chara lifted her hands up and groaned before returning to her room to finish getting ready.

“Is on time a thing you understand Chara?” Ink asked jokingly as Chara stepped into the doodle sphere, ten minutes late despite her siblings efforts, sweating from their quick morning.
“Sorry Ink. You know I don’t really do mornings.” Chara laughed.
“No you do mornings, as in you don’t sleep until morning then sleep all morning.” Ink rolled his eyes whilst smirking coolly.
“Oh quiet!” Chara laughed at her best friend.
“Well either way, ready to get started? We have a lot to plan.” Ink sighed.
“Well no duh. We gotta figure out what universes are crumbling for Error to destroy when you create. We need to see how much we can create.” Chara moved to pull up a line of coding and files.
“Yes, I agree… well that looks like and underswap with a destroyed reset button that just went through a genocide route, Error can destroy that so we can work on at least 1 new au.” Ink pointed out and Chara nodded, separating the files of that au copy.
“Should I send it to Error or compile a folder of multiples?” 
“Just make one big folder. That’s easier.”
“Okay.”

Six Au’s. They had found 6 aus either abandoned by their creator or copies that went through something making reset impossible. Six Au’s Error could destroy and at most 6 Au’s Ink could make until they sorted more files.
“That’s not a terrible amount of leeway.” Chara smiled.
“Nope. That should take me a lot of time. This should be really fun to make. You can send the files to Error now.” Ink shut away the coding and files before nodding towards Chara who pushed the folder through a small portal.
“He should text us if he gets them and agrees.” Chara hummed, standing to brush off her sweater.
“What you got planned for the rest of the day?” Ink hummed.
“Movie in underswap surface with Frisk.” Chara grinned and her friend nodded.
“Makes sense. How is Frisk’s survivor group doing? Since the balance pact, they were supposed to be finding homes for the ruined au survivors.” Ink hummed.
“Most are living in surface timelines.” Chara pulled her hair back as she pushed in her chair.
“Sounds fun, what movie are you seeing?”
“Some weird one that the timelines Blue convinced the creators to put him in. He stars in it and convinced my lovely sibling to go see it.” Chara said sarcastically and Ink laughed.
“I’ll see if Error wants to come with. I’m free for the rest of the day so he should be as well. Meet you at the theater in…”
“Two hours. Bring whoever you want.”
“Good. See you in two hours.”

“But Erry!” Ink tugged on Errors sleeve as the other stubbornly refused his begs.
“No! I’m supposed to spend the day with my older brother!”
“Then bring Geno with! Please! We haven’t been on a date in forever and it’s been forever since the pact or Core!Chara’s jealousy!” Ink whined. 

Okay quick recap of the universe:
After Blue was returned to his universe Error, Ink, Core!Frisk, and Core!Chara made a pact called the balance pact. Later on Dream and Nightmare joined as well. Both sides of the balance would work together, with the core siblings as moderators.
Error and Ink had an agreement that Error would only destroy the designated Au’s that are either abandoned or copies unable to reset after a genocide route. Ink would only create a maximum of Au’s based on the amount destroyed.
Soon relationships bloomed and at the current time, they have been dating for at least 5 years which is nothing for immortals.
Core!Chara had obvious feelings for Ink and although they went away with time, Error still felt uncomfortable around her. Similarly, as to what Ink had mentioned, it had been what seemed like forever since their last date and although Error wouldn’t admit it, it was way past overdue.

Recap finished!

“But Inky! You know Geno hates going out!” Error groaned.
“Please?”
“I’ll try but no promises Inky.”
“Love you~”
“Love you too,” Error nuzzled Inks skull before heading out. Ink hummed before pulling out his phone to text Chara that Error should be going along.

Ink §_§: So Error said he might come
Chara ¥_¥: yay!
Ink §_§: see ya in a bit.
Chara ¥_¥: Yep. See ya.

Ink hugged Errors arm tightly and Geno grumbled beside the destroyer. He didn't want to be there but well… he loved his little brother and was going to make Error happy. So here he was, at a movie theater in underswap. Yay.
“Ink!” Core!Frisk squealed letting go of their sisters hand before darting over to the creator. Ink happily let go of his boyfriend to hug the child back.
“Hey Frisk.” Ink laughed. Error raised a chill hand and Frisk beamed.
“Ready for the movie?” Frisk asked, bouncing on their heels and Core!Chara finally caught up. Frisk moved back to their elder sisters side.
“Yep.” Ink smiled reaching back down for Errors hand.

It was so much fun back then. Peace reached throughout the multiverse and those multidimensional beings were extremely happy.

Who knew this movie would be the beginning of a very slow fall into a doomed future.
