Broken Grace

Broken Grace chapter three

It started out as a normal day for Error.

After he finished the scarf he went out to get rid of a few AUs. One was filled with gingerbread Monsters, another was full of nothing but clay of all things. Error will never understand Inky's creative process. When that was done, he put the SOULs he got into his collection and started working on new puppets of the Sanses he saw. Error knew he had to enjoy the slow creative streak from Inky as much as possible, but it also worried him what exactly Inky is working on. Inky didn't even bother showing up to try and stop him from destroying those AU.

"hEh..." Lifting up the gingerbread Sans to his face, Error chuckled darkly. "MAyBE i cOulD bE tHe CREaToR! LoOk aT hOW gOOd tHESe aRE!" But Error knew that it was an empty joke, Fate would never let him be that and Inky would sooner dust him than let him try to create something. It just wasn't in Error's codes and magic to do it. That didn't mean he couldn't dream of being in Inky's place, not that he wished his troubles on anyone else anymore.

'WHY ARE YOU NOT DESTROYING?!'

'WORTHLESS! '

'Are you feeling your sins crawling on your back?'

'Lazing about! HA! By the time you get moving the Multiverse will be gone already!'

'MURDERER!'

'.....Do you feel that?'

Error stilled at the last Voice's question. It wasn't yelled or screamed out, and it wasn't a voice he had heard before. Before he had more time to think about it, a familiar shiver went down his back. With a sad sigh Error let go of his new puppet, letting the strings take it up with all the others. It seems that Inky has finally made a brand new AU, again.

Standing up, and wincing at the pain flaring in his body, Error opened a portal to were he felt the magic forming a new AU. 'And here I was hoping I could watch some Undernovela! I wanted to see what Sin was going to do now that Frisk has gotten involved and knows about the affair.'

Just as he was about to jump through the portal, a broken whisper made him freeze. A voice he had never heard spoke out, the voice was soft and filled with despair. Blinking at the words Error couldn't help but give a sad, broken smile at the words before going through the portal.

'Too.......Kill y-u....War-ing.......He-p...you.....P-ease do-'t.....!'

"HeH, I wISH thAT cOULd HaPPEn. BuT tHAnKS fOR thE wARnINg KIdDo."

It started out a normal day for Error.

Then it changed and twisted into something no one ever saw coming.

-New AU-

As soon as Error's sneakers touched the ground, he knew something was very wrong.

The AU was void of the normal life he came to expect with new AU's. All there was in front of him was empty rocky land, ignoring everything that told him that he should just go to a different AU and destroy that one instead, Error took a step forward.

That was his first mistake.

The next mistake was pausing as he felt another's presence because the next thing Error saw was a bright splash of paint headed in his direction, shifting to the right and dipping down he was able to dodge it, but the kick to the head was very unexpected. Luckily he was able to catch himself before he fell backwards. Skidding to a stop, the glitch quickly righted himself, ignoring the pain and dizzy sensation.

Rubbing the new crack on his skull, Error was finally able to look around, and what he saw made his marrow run cold and magic buzz to life.

Error was now surrounded by hundreds of different Sanses and Papyruses. All of them had grim looks that promised pain. In front of them was a grim but satisfied Inky with the original Sans right by him.

'Well, I have to give them props!' Error's SOUL beat fast in his rib cage, everything in him screaming to make a portal and run. 'I never thought they would have the balls to try altogether..... The ballsy motherfuckers!' But even if Error knew this was going to get tough on him, he was slightly flattered in a twisted way. It will take more than one Monster to take him down and they knew that.

It's a shame they didn't know that Error was almost at the point of no return. He was almost at the point where he would let one win if he still didn't care about the balance.

But that would change after today much to Fate's horror and Destiny's gleeful surprise even grace can break.

"WHAt's GoING On inKY?" Error taunted as he got into a fighting stance, strings started forming on his hands making the others tense up. "cAN'T fIGhT mE oN YOuR oWN So YOu gEt hELp, fRoM tHE OnEs YOU cLaIM tO pRoTEcT? iT'S nOt sUrprIsInG YOU nEVer cArE wHEn tHEY dUst." 'But it kills me every time, doesn't it. Is that why Inky is doing this?'

"Hmph!" Inky huffed, glaring at the glitch in front of him for his honest words. "We are finally going to end this today Error! You always go after the newer AU's so it was easy to get you here!"

"IT'S bECaUsE tHEy aRE mORE unSTAblE aND lEsS AtTaCHed tO LifE wItHOuT rEaL mEmOrIeS." Error answered the masked question factually but dully, as if Inky should already know this. Making a few monsters look uncomfortable. Error's eye lights were going everywhere as the rest of the skeletons shifted, then Inky made a fist. To Error it was like everything was in slow motion as Inky brought his fist up, then everything exploded into activity.

"LET'S END THIS! " Was screamed out from everywhere before all the skeletons called upon their magic and descended upon Error, faces grim with determination they knew this would be the end of the Destroyer. They would not stop until he or all of them were dust.

'Why?'

Error panted as he dodged all the different colored lasers and magic with astonishing grace.

'WHY?!'

Error held back a scream when one of the UnderFell Sanses was able to get a hit in. The hit forcing already cracked bones to break even farther.

'I have done my job! I have done what has been asked of me!'

Bones creaked, marrow leaking out pooling all around him as more hits landed. Some leaking into his sockets, making his sight go bloody red and blinding him as more and more came.

'Why am I being punished for doing what Fate has demanded of me when Inky is the one who never listens!?'

One got a shot at his ribs, cracking a few and making him fall down from his strings to hit the rocky ground. Hitting the ground, his bones gave a sickening crack, echoing out. Error could no longer move to his numb horror.

'Is this what all of them want?'

Then all of them descended on him all he knew was PAIN.

Kicks, hits, magic and so much more as they tried to dust him for he would not let them force his SOUL out. His HP and other stats were so glitched out that it would take a lot to kill him, so it went on for hours.

Then finally for the first time in years Error opened his mouth and screamed.

He screamed for help, cried and begged for it as the others laughed ignoring his cries. After all the Destroyer has no feelings....Right?

Error choked on his screams as he coughed up more blood, his own dust falling off his bones. Before they had time to get to his SOUL, Error focused the last bit of his magic to form a portal below him, making it swallow him up and take him back to the Anti-Void.

It was the same as back then for Error, the first time he called out for help.

He curled up into a ball and wept in the whiteness of the Anti-Void as the Voices screamed at him once more.

He cried, begged, called, screamed, for any type of help from anyone-

BUT NO ONE CAME.
