//------------------------------// // Chpt. 3 - You Wanna Have a Veggie Dog? // Story: Sans?! // by TheShippingJR //------------------------------// Canterlot Castle Throne Room "How in 'ta hay are ya even speaking right now?" Applejack seemed to be in a pickle with the situation, obviously wondering why there was a fully fledged sentient daisy. She felt as if she'd forgotten something or even somebody... Rainbow started to see stars, "Applejack, I know that you're trying to wrap your head around this but could you possibly let me down? I'm turning bluer than the time I was in hospital. Not that I'd re-create that whole episode again but I'd appreciate you PUTTING ME DOWN!" She let go of the rope which somehow lazily fell, giving Rainbow enough time to not land on any part of her body. "Do I have everybody's attention? Good, now that listening. I'd like to discuss and give a heads up about that devious skeleton. Don't trust him, he only killed that wretched kid because It was apart of his plan." The daisy's face suddenly changed into a crazed killing face, to say an ongoing line. "You don't want a bad time, do you?" His face turned to the 'Original' one and vanished into the crystalline pavings. Everything became ominous and luminous in the room, as if the atmosphere left with that flower... "OMG! I just remembered something super-duper important!" Pinkie begun, "We forgot to ask his name! His name could be 'Non-sadistic but Creepy Face' or maybe 'Cutey-patuty Weirdo Flower'. Oh oh, or maybe 'Flowey'? Nah to simple. Ooo, maybe-" In mid-sentence, she was cut off by Rainbow who carried a annoyed face. PonyVille, Twilight's Castle A purple drake was busy cleaning up the Bed, Dishes, Windows, Owl, Weird creepy daisy looking at him, Gem- Wait, weird creepy daisy looking at him? He didn't recall having to take care of one of those on his checklist, or was he missing something... What he could remember, before burning a quarter of his scroll, was doing the Bed, laundry, owl, dishes, books, gems and helping Rarity when she arrived back. Last part was from Casa Nova aka Spike. He just thought it was a gift from Roseluck. Although she'd usually handle roses of all colours with a few snow-drops which were exclusive to spring only after Winter Wrap-up... He decided to investigate. "Uhhh, this is probably a prank from the crusaders. Yeah thats it, Its just a prank." What happened next startled Spike, it was sentient too much of his surprise. "Just a prank you say? But what If I were to tell you that it wasn't?" The flower had a Canterlot atmosphere around him, further complicating the current state of Spike. Sort of felt like it was all to calm and natural. That seemed to of disturbed his suspicions. "I'd like to make a proposal to you kid. But It would cost you dearly I'm afraid." Before Spike could question, he was surrounded by vines and weed. He let out a screech of help but he was to deep in the castle for anyone to help... The Heart of PonyVille The Element bearers arrived in PonyVille with warm welcomes ranging from simple 'Hello!' to even bowing at Twilight by her sudden transformation from a while back. It put her feathers in a bunch but bottled it up until she was in a secluded area. Though they felt like they were being watched from afar. "Those six ponies remind me of those six human souls back at Asgore's castle. Each striking a similar tone with the colours as well... Kinda..." As far as he would go with saying who represented who, two didn't seem to match with the colour although had the same talent as of two of the souls. Twilight represented the Purple due to her Harmony, Applejack represented the Orange due to her Honesty, Rarity represented Blue due to her Generosity, Rainbow represented Neon due to her Loyalty, Pinkie represented Yellow due to her laughter and another reason which lead to hidden... And Fluttershy represented Green due to her Kindness. "And I do believe that If I collect their precious jewels, which I saw when leaving the castle, I'd return to my true powerful self! It would be ashame If they suddenly disappeared... That would be a pleasant sight indeed." Continuing to monologue, he didn't seem to notice a stand behind him with a skeleton chugging the endless stream of conduits with red large plump veggie dogs. The skeleton alarmed him. "Eyyy, Flowey. What brings you here to these parts? I thought you didn't like my food" He said carrying that smug grin. "Anyway, how'd ya like the fight between us. Huh? Kid always had a sneaky way of backstabbing me." Chugging away at the conduits seemed to disgust Flowey, which he'd try to take in his own vines while suffocating his Soul. At the mean time, he'd just torment him the same way he does to all. "At least I don't get killed when he decides to go Genocide, he is willing enough to let me guide him throughout the journey," Flowey said with his vines digging deeper with each word. "Especially when it comes to killing brothers the most." That hit emotional and mental levels at its limits. His reaction didn't waver the slightest. It made a disappointing sight to Flowey, although he could feel his mental state cracking. But before he could make another witty and 'Insult to Injury' comment, Sans disappeared with the whole bar he'd set up. Along with the cooker and ingredients surprisingly enough. Flowey and Sans may know each other but didn't know each others attributes. Even with remembering some parts of timelines, abilities seemed to not of counted with the paradox like memories. Twilight's Castle "Girls, this whole situation seems to have a hidden meaning to it. I mean a unknown skeleton which barely resembles any other skeletal creature parts, a talking daisy which seemed to be sadistic, and now Spike's missing! This has to be a clue of an upcoming force to be reckoned with. We must tell the princesses immediately about this conspiracy, although I don't have Spike..." Twilight was in her panic mode. At the same time it looked like Rarity's drama sections at the same time, again. The girls was worried due to her in her panic state, Applejack quickly intervened. "'Na calm down Sugarcube. No need 'ta get in a muddle, were worried as much as you are right 'na or even more," Hoping to not restrain her, she asked for Pinkie for help. Crazily enough, she wasn't on a sugar rush thanks to Twilight. "I want ya 'ta breath slowly. In. And out." "Yeah, cmon Twilight. I'm really worried about you." Pinkie gave her an honorary 'Pinkie Hug' while doing so. It worked. After Twilight calmed down, she went off to grab a book about Anomalies relating to Talking Flowers, Unknown Skeletons and Missing Assistants. Luck wasn't in favour of that specific book in the slightest, fortunately Pinkie came in. She popped out of a wedged area and pulled out the book from within. She whispered 'Take it' in a ghostly theme which made Twilight chuckle at her silliness. Flipping through the book, she found somethings about Timelines and SAVE and RESET with a bunch of other things which she thought was irrelevant. She also questioned why it was in the book in the first place. Skimming the entire book, inside and out, she covered some fascinating facts. Someone didn't seem to appreciate her find those fascinating facts in the slightest. Outskirts of PonyVille San's P.O.V Good to know he still knows where to hit rock bottom. Heh heh... I'm starting to question why do I keep on talking to myself as if I'm talking to Papyrus... I wish the kid would just reset right now, save me the trouble of living through this pain he caused. Although it does feel like he's doing it right now. Feel myself fading away. ...Wait, I think thats the Veggie dogs. Can't tell which. Never understood that really. I can know that there are multiple Timelines, defeat the kid over and over, have enough power to overthrow Asgore and stop Flowey at the same time but can't tell if I'm fading... Great, I'm now collapsing. With a sudden force, I could feel my bones become jelly like and my eye feeling as if it was alive. It certainly wasn't pleasant. ??? Sans' skeleton body formed in a non-pre-existent room which made his body hover above an abyss of nothingness. 3 Silhouette figures appeared in the distance but disappeared when Sans began to stir. He stretched his bones and tested his eyes while rubbing his temples. Rubbing it seemed to of made the headache worse which he gained from rubbing it too much. His headache switched into a vision, which had him in many different places/Timelines. One appeared with him standing underneath a opened window while spinning a bone, aggressively glaring at a group of humans who reminded him of those ponies at that castle. The next vision appeared with him standing in a place looking at Frisk instead of Chara with two ponies. One with a magician hat with a cloak with a exact same style and what seemed to be a creature which was called 'Sweet'. The last vision appeared with him with what seemed to be bandages around his ribs. He'd thought that Tia or Celly would of just put them back them healed them instead of bandages but oh well. Different vision or Timeline, he couldn't tell which. Although he felt as if this room was familiar to him as if Gas-... No, he's got to let go of the past. So much was jogging through his mind, forgetting what was real and what was not. Too many Timelines with these new visions he can't even remember glimpses of. Guess he'll never fully understand the powers of resetting and saving. Once the vision and pain ended, he decided that he'd explore his new surroundings. If it was anything like his room, then he'd of been dunked on in a way. Although a new sudden pain would increase exponentially if he'd try to go further than 5 feet. Creepiness and pain not wavering in the slightest. It really got onto his nerves. Sans tried to test his powers, just to check if it's in full working order to say the least. Doing so resulted in more pain, felt like he was supposed to do nothing until the end of time itself. Which wouldn't happen in a while. ???'s Castle Throne Room "What do you mean that you can't sense his power, his powers are able to strengthen me and my army. How could you of lost him?!" The king seemed of not stopping for a while due to his insolent minions failing to find Sans. Few hours after his bottle of rage let out, Boston B. Jersey and Dan could hear the ruckus from all the way down in the Testing Facility. They assumed it was their boss aka Masked Alicorn being ridiculed at for losing their prime objective. Which in a matter of fact they were right. Surprisingly, they were consoled by the King and said it weren't their faults. Which got them a raise somehow... "Ey, at least Mikhail won't insult due to me being just a Civil Rank. Im now a Freelance. What 'cha think Doc-I mean Dan..." He saved himself just by a close shave. Dan gladly responded in-delight. "Vell, I'm now at a Mercenary grade vhich means I'm no longer a Freelance. Meaning zhat I'm better zhan you, as it should be." He emphasized the last part with glee. Earning a 'Seriously Bro?' look from Jersey, he continued his ego with pride until he bumped in D.Ford by accident. "Oh, hello Dell. Good to ze ya, still vorking on zat armour?" He tried to strike a conversation with him but failed to do so. D.Ford seemed to be more focused on the armour than they thought. "Sorry ya'll but I've got 'ta get back on the armour stat. Reason being, the hunk of junk would've gone hay-wire if I don't get back as fast as possible." The Appleloosa accented pony went off. The two started to theorize that the armour had something in it that kept on attracting D.Ford to it. But it was just a coincidence, right? CutieMark Crusader's Clubhouse Three fillies sat around a little circular table with what looked like cards with different drawings and objectives. One of the fillies wore a scruffy stetson with a bow wrapping around it. Another filly wore a cow costume with a 'belle' dangling from her neck and the last filly had flying goggles which were above her eyes, behind her ears. "Oh shoot, I don't think the role-playing CutieMark is for us girls." The filly with goggles just gave the stetson wearing one and gave her a distressed sigh. The cosplayer followed in pursuit which she replied with, "I was kinda dubious about the idea from the beginning, who even put that in there anyway?" Due to her being a 'Dictionary', the stetson filly just made fun of her cow suit. Not bothering to start a comment war... ...A voice broke the fourth wall and just said 'It's called a flame war, look it up'... "What in 'ta hay was that voice?" "I don't know but I wasn't scared, I'm as brave as Rainbow Dash doe!" The goggled one acted as brave as she could with a neutral look. "Anywho, Sweetie Belle. It's your turn 'ta pick the card for our CutieMark's" They took off all of their clothes and continued with the rest of the cards...
