Chapter 21 - We Will Win

Present with Shiro and Sora

Shiro and Sora would both have been silently traveling up the steps, but the silent steps would not have been completely so as they were in quite the hurry to save their friends, there was some sense of dread because they knew not how long they would have been able to last in the situation and hoped they could help them as quickly as possible. The two would move pretty speedily around caring less about being found and more about stopping whatever this was and soon they would have reached the top of the stairs. At the top of the stairs it was blaring with red color and some sounds going on indicating that they were aware of the breaching of the facility as it was in a sort of danger mode. Although the two should have anticipated this because when they got there the halls were swarming with guards that were armed to the teeth and seemed to be even more troublesome than the ones that they had seen before then.

The two would have stood there with worry on their faces slightly freezing when they had seen the sheer amount of people there. Although this frozen state would only have lasted a rather short amount of time as they would have heard a loud noise coming from the open area that everyone else was in causing a spark to go off for them as they knew they couldn't stand to be afraid they would have to face any fear they had now. Sora would have closed his eyes for a moment as he seems to remember something from his past it was.. Pain, there was so much pain. Yet with all that pain came growth and the erasure of his fears, he would have to go back to a similar state like back then. Recollecting on the past his aura would begin to pulsate and grow being unrestricted by thoughts of fear would allow him to more easily control his aura of perseverance. And at the same time Shiro would have something go through her mind.. Well she didn't have the same sort of experiences that Sora had, she could not erase her fears or anything like that. What Shiro would have to do is simply embrace them, along with a special "someone" helping her in her head. And alas it would seem everything had resumed once more as the pulsating souls of the two would rival that of those before them, and that's when everything would start.

 Guns would start firing being massively powerful as they were spiritually/magically enhanced weaponry and the guards sure had a good handle on both somehow. Shiro and Sora would have to be very careful and work in a nice tandem as a duo. Shiro would have shot off her blue flames towards the weapons of the guards whilst zipping around and avoiding these bullets despite their grand speed. After she would have done this Sora would use a cursed wave of energy to inflict some sort of ailment towards the guards which would allow him and Shiro to charge and beat down the disarmed guards. Although it was seen that even then they were still quite strong as one of them grabbed Shiro whilst she was trying to take some of them down. They would have slammed Shiro down into the ground with quite an incredible force, enough to make her bleed and held onto her neck holding her down despite the strength she had; it was mostly her speed that was helping her through this against fully grown adults. Sora would have turned towards Shiro hearing a crash against the ground and swiftly ran over in an attempt to then reach her, but he would have been suddenly stopped by another guard that had reached out their hand in an attempt to catch him off guard and clothesline Sora while he was off to reach Shiro. Although Sora would have acted off of instinct in the moment to prevent this attack without fully noticing it, grabbing onto the outstretched hand and then slamming down the guard onto the ground as his aura would flare up, he certainly had more power than Shiro did as he bolted forward and kicked the person that was holding her down slamming them against the wall. Sora would have taken a breath of air as he exerted himself more and he would see Shiro beginning to take rapid breaths after being slammed down and choked. 

Yet this gave an opportunity for a guard that wasn't fully dealt with to grab onto the legs of Sora and cause him to crash into the ground. When Sora had fallen a couple of other guards that were only faking to have been dealt with and they would have all jumped onto the two fallen children! They were being beaten and battered and blood was splattered! Despite all the power they had gained they were still children that had not as much experience as these folks did which limited their chances of beating them greatly. How would the two get out of this mess? Well it would be by something or well someone who would regrettably do so and that was Enigma who would exhaust a speck of her power through the body of Shiro that would suddenly blast away the guards that were on top of both of them. The two kids got up or tried to but they could not. Shiro would have rolled over to Sora as she would start using a healing magic she learned from her mother on the both of them.. Shiro would think Enigma inside of her head, but got nothing but silence from her sigh. She was so dramatic Shiro would think, yet she was grateful at the same time. Sora and Shiro would sit there for a while as they would have started partially healing. Shiro would not be skilled enough to fully heal them but enough to get them back up and continue going on forward now.

Shiro and Sora would have dashed as fast as they could past the fallen guards now although Shiro had to be a bit careful because her head injury was not fully healed so she felt some sort of dizziness with her senses. Although after some more time of traveling they would have made it to a walk out section where there was a small platform for people to look over into the open area that their friends were all currently in. "Sora, do you think you got this? My head still hurts." She would say, rubbing her own head. Sora would think for a moment before giving her a confident thumbs up with a grin even after what had just happened, it was not enough to deter him. "Of course. Just light me up please." As he would say this Shiro would have tapped him with her blue flames as his body seemed to ignite, but it was not hurting him. Sora then jumped up onto the ceiling and using the heat would allow for him to claw into it to stay on it. He would traverse behind the guards on the platform now and silently would say some chants as his cursed energy would charge up and infused with the kinetic energy charged up from their previous fights. Suddenly a quiet yet sort of large and powerful explosion of energy would happen on the platform as it was destroyed, but it also knocked out the guards, seeming to be its purpose. The platform would have crashed onto some of the guards in the arena. Although this would have been a good distraction as well as it got some of the heat off of their allies in the arena.. But it was now all on them.

Sora would have to suddenly dive down and away as many bullets and blasts of energy would come firing up at him and across as well. "Shiro, we gotta move!" "Got it!" Shiro would respond and get on all fours as her tail would sprout out again going into the more monster-ish state she has. And suddenly she would zoom going extremely fast, but she would stare to the side and down at the open area.. Her eyes would have zoomed in on the anti-magic device as she saw everything in slow motion. Within this instance she would point a finger towards it and would shoot towards it with a blast of flame that would explode the devices in an instant causing the waves to dissipate and for it to stop working. Everything would seem to speed up again as she would dash off continuing and putting Sora on her back. They would run all the way around the circular hall to avoid the shots coming at them, But they would bump into some guards although in this state Shiro could not be so easily stopped. She ran at them with such force and power it would simply crush them and toss them out of the way whilst burning them at the same time how deadly. 

Now whilst the children were running around the group below although hurt after being attacked while weakened for some time, with their power back would seem to almost easily decimate through the troops. When they looked over at a window they would see plumes of fire and different energies along with some blasts, they did not even need to fully see it to tell just what kind of damage they were doing.. Wow, they were so amazing. After the children did a full loop and returned back to where the first platform they had been to. Now they would peer down seeing the many guards of the base had been displaced and were knocked out on the ground, some even.. Well they don't know if they were alive or not. Well now there was only one guy being surrounded, the proclaimed boss and they did look eerily familiar to the one in the video. Shiro and Sora would make their sudden descent landing behind the group. Although when they landed they would look around seeing Dr. Gaster who seemed to have been affected more than the others for some reason. Turning back to the others then who were now looking at them realizing who they were. There would have been sudden confusion as to their presence as Toriel and Axis would speak, seeming genuinely angry for a moment. "What are you doing here!" "We told you to stay home." Although their voices would mellow out then. "Are you okay?" They would both ask.

 Sadly though in the moment that they were not looking the person would have done something, because suddenly black liquid would ooze out of the boss as they would suddenly stand up covered in black sludge and now a rather gigantic size and everyone would have been tossed to the side for a moment, but for some reason he seemed to ignore them all and made a move towards Gaster attempting to fire a beam of pure hatred towards it, they would find it strange why he was only doing this now, but maybe it was some sort of trick. More importantly Gaster was in trouble! The beam would have been fired, but Sans would have summoned a blaster in front of Gaster to fire back at the hatred creature overpowering it in raw strength, but then being even more effective due to the karmic property of his abilities. Toriel would have then blasted the creature down with several strikes of fire. Finally Papyrus would have raised his hand summoning several blue bones trying to keep it still. "Please don't move, we aren't going to kill you!" Papyrus would say seemingly trying to plead to it and get it to calm down as he seemed quite nervous, he wished for the least amount of casualties, but beyond anything none at all. It seems his plea would have been in vain though as the boss seemed to be overcome with Hate and it would pulsate with energy seemingly overloading itself until it would have… oh no it was going to explode. Sans would have been the first to realize this being one of the people more aware of things happening with the soul and its energy, alongside Chara, Frisk, and Asriel, but just below Undyne. Suddenly Sans would realize what may happen and suddenly time would stop for everyone, even those mentioned alongside Sans due to them not being at their peak abilities at the moment, but Dr.Gaster would be the only other one seemingly sentient due to his strange nature.. He didn't have much time and was not at his full speed either, Sans would suddenly spawn bones under everyone that would carry them out of the area and then time resumed. Sans would huff after expending such energy, but he looked back and saw that well they exploded. "Crap-." 

The explosion of the boss would have entirely destroyed the area that they had all been in before, lucky that Sans was able to help them. Before anyone could even worry about Sans he was suddenly on the ground by them although he looked pretty worn out and hurt. He barely even had the ability to keep himself together at the moment, but all that was known was they needed to get out of there quickly it seemed the explosion was causing a chain reaction and the whole facility was going down almost as if that was an intended measure. They would have no time to rest and they would all start running now. Frisk was carrying Sans, Papyrus was carrying Gaster, and they were off. Papyrus would try to quell the explosion as they ran by summoning big bone walls, but that clearly was not working due to the potency of it, it seems odd for them to have even been able to make such devices. Perhaps the organization was active longer than they had initially thought to be able to create this stuff, but it was all over now it would seem. Once they had gotten to the entrance.. There was a problem that it used an elevator system and they did not have time for that so there was only one solution. With a blast of energy from several of them they would send the elevator top into literal orbit in an instant. Anyway, Papyrus would use the handle he had on blue magic to make everyone suddenly ascend up with Sans partially assisting with his little remaining magic as they landed up to where they were before. Although just in case the explosion reaches all the way up to here they would have gotten a bit further and luckily they did because a big explosion did ensue collapsing the whole place upon itself. 

Shortly after they all sat down they would see three figures coming over towards them being Alphys, Undyne and Mettaton. They would have been able to destroy the army or at least a majority of it during their time down there and so they would have landed down here after seeing the massive explosion. They would be relieved that everyone was alright, but there would be many questions, first of all there would be. "METTATON?!" As they were surprised to see him here. "Yes darling's I couldn't let you all struggle by yourselves, I had to help with some of my star power haha." He would say and do a sort of exhausted pose as his reserves were a bit low. They would give a short debrief on the situation on both sides, everyone being glad that it was seemingly about over now, but then Alphys would have a question. "Why does Dr. Gaster seems so much worse than all of you?" Yet no one would have an answer and they would all shrug it off. Alphys would have seemed to have a thought in her mind, but she would think about that later. For now everyone would indulge in their victory.. They would all wander back to the main part of where they lived. They had some work to do tomorrow but they were going to celebrate first, but that is for another time.
