//------------------------------// // Doors // Story: A Pacifist // by dereturd //------------------------------// She was wandering around the forest. Not to mention it was dark out completely. She wandered, very lonely. She didn't change tracks. Just forward. Wherever she was walking to, it was her intent. She wants to make more friends. She wanted a happy world, other than the last one. Then the child appeared, she looks to have the same hairstyle as hers. The green and yellow stripes shirt and the cactus green shorts. She had makeup blushes on her face. She smiled at her. Greetings. I am Chara. Thank you. Your power awakened me from death. My "human soul"... My "determination"... They were not mine, but YOURS. At first, I was so confused. Our plan had failed, hadn't it? Why was I brought back to life? ... You. With your guidance. I realized the purpose of my reincarnation. Power. Together, we eradicated the enemy and became strong. HP. ATK. DEF. GOLD. EXP. LV. Every time a number increases, that feeling... That's me. "Chara." Now. Now we have reached the absolute. There is nothing left for us here. Let us erase this pointless world, and move on to the next. She nodded quickly, as if she was about to be killed and never LOAD again. Her response was firm and clear. Right. You are a great partner. We'll be together forever, won't we? She watched the child bury the world in 9's. One slash and everything went black. Not much will witness everything what happened. And she thought to herself. 'Why am I here?' She realized everything drowned in a black void. There was no land to see, only to be stepped on. She hears wind and dust, but never ever seeing it. She stood there. She changed. She wanted to be good for once. 10 minutes was for her to wait. The child's voice called her, she looked up. Up. But there was nothing. Then the voice called. Interesting. You want to go back. You want to go back to the world you destroyed. It was you who pushed everything to its edge. It was you who led the world to its destruction. But you cannot accept it. You think you are above consequences. She nodded, the darkness is so severe no one could see her answer. But she knew and saw her face. Exactly. Silence. Dread, quiet silence. Perhaps. We can reach a compromise. You still have something I want. Give it to me. And I will bring this world back. She nodded once again. Then it is agreed. You will give me your SOUL. And she was back on where she started. She snapped back as she bumped her head into a tree. She looked at it, but she continued forward. If only she had the 'shortcuts'. She would've gone through the tree. But she turned right and continued forward. Only to find a purple door in the distance. Seeing as it wasn't far, she walked to it. Who knows what might offer her through that door. Her walking wasn't that fast. But she still managed to reach it. And good thing it never disappeared. She kept on looking down, that's a sign of sadness. She doesn't know what she's feeling. Mixed. It was mixed. She looked up, and turned the door knob. Her last sight was a bright light engulfing her. She appeared as if she really had the shortcuts. She was back in the forest, in the clearing. Only it wasn't the same forest she was on. There was more light, there was wild vines everywhere. Supernatural mushrooms grew left to right. There was a mountain in sight. And it was still night. She looked around, hands still in her pockets. Just like how his other friend did. There was more stars to see. She really missed them, back at her forest, there wasn't much to see at the night sky. Her almost-broken stick and bandage was still with her. The gauze looking object is still on her knee. She only slept once (or twice) back in the underground. There was an inn back in Snowdin, but she never slept in. She insisted to herself to walk straight forward on the clearing. A giant wall of trees blocked her from walking. She turned right instead. Through trees and vines and bushes. Nothing stopped her. Her body hit all the obstacles, the bush, the wood, the boulders and everything on her path. But in front of her is a tree house. Looking swell and soaked in Birch wood. There was slopes to the top, and a door to the treehouse inside. She went up the slopes and opened the door. Inside it was dark, she can see two set of papers, some crude drawings used by markers. It was hard to understand, but there was several pictures. A camera, a pool, an umbrella, a microphone and a book. Some of the other drawings are hard to make out according to her. Some other drawings are also crossed out. She was confused, but she did know someone uses this place. There was also a calendar and a lectern. It's a small one to be specific. She thought this was made for a cult. She examined the place more, there was curtains on the windows. The place more organized, there was a cloth hiding something. Curious, she went to the corner and pulled the cloth as it revealed a luggage, she opened it, and saw a bunch of pictures. She did remember the time she LOADed to her SAVE FILE in the corridor with Sans. She did it for 5 times and he gave his key to his room. Where found another key in a drawer. There was a door behind the house, she opened it and revealed a broken machine and some pictures, notes and a badge. She snapped herself back in reality and was about to examine the pictures until- She yawned. She was tired, after all, she came across a very long journey. Since there wasn't anything that felt like a bed, she slept on the comfortable floor. She placed herself on a nice position, one that will not allow her to scratch. She placed her hands on her head. And went to sleep.
