Chapter eleven

Sans seemed to realize what I had thought, too.

His face was etched with terror, and I had the urge to reset.....

But there was a little voice in my head that kept telling me not to.

Jesse's POV:

Lukas stayed leaning against the wall, clearly trying to process what I had just said to him.

"So..... you..." he began. "You... really did murder me? And the others?"

I felt guilt rip apart my insides, looking at how he looked at me as if I were a monster.

"Lukas... I'm not going to say it was an accident, okay?" I muttered. "They were my actions but there is something you should know.... i..."

"Well??" He pressed. "What is it?"

I started questioning wether this was a good idea or not.

"I.... can reset time.." I said, barely managing to look him in the eye.

He raised his eyebrows in as if in a way that said 'I already knew that.'

Lukas' POV:

I looked at her, not knowing how to process this.

...controlling time? Of all things.....

"I.... don't know what to say..." I sighed, running my fingers through my hair.

She had tears streaming down her face, and I hoped I wasn't being too mean.

"Can you show me?" I asked.

"Huh??" She asked, skeptically. "Show you what?"

"How you can rewind time." I answered. "I want to see for myself."

I saw the blood drain from her face.

"I.... can't do that.." she croaked, staring at the wooden floor beneath us.

I didn't want to pressure her, but I was suddenly filled with rage over that.... dream?

Her actions....

"Why can't you?" I demanded. "Show me how you reset time, or I'll make you."

She hiccuped, snapping her fingers and causing a glowing orange box to appear.

I stared at it, suddenly mesmerized.

"I..... I'm scared what I'll do again..." she whimpered, her hand hovering over the box. "I.... I don't want to hurt anyone..."

I saw hazy images in my mind, replaying over and over again.

Petra falling into the trap that killed sparklez. Jesse pushing Harper off the roof. Ivor getting shot with arrows. Her face when she hurt me...

It was shock.

Not.... contempt.

"I....."

Jesse stared at the button for a good while and then looked back up at me.

"What do you remember?" She asked. "Do you remember what kind of monster I am? How I hurt you all?"

I looked back to the button, feeling fear bubble up inside me.

"I remember enough." I replied.

She looked back at the button, her hand inches from it.

"Okay...." she sighed, trembling slightly. "I'm going to press it.... but you have to promise to keep me from hurting anyone."

I nodded my head, showing that I would hold up my end of the "deal."

Frisks POV:

I stared at Sans, when the world started fading away.

I felt terror grip me, my body feeling like it was being compressed into nothingness.

The world was resetting.

Jesse's power is stronger than mine...

..I thought, as I tried to summon my reset button.

My reset button wasn't working.

Jesse's power is overriding mine... I can no longer reset.

Frisks POV:

I opened my eyes.

I looked around, seeing a bed of golden flowers.

But.... I'm not laying on the flowers... I...

Who is that?!

The person woke up, their face scratched and caked with mud.

I walked- no... floated around, following the person.

I saw the familiar scene with flowey and Toriel, ending with the person cowering in fear.

"What a heartless creature, torturing such a poor and innocent youth.." sighs Toriel, her goat ears ruffling in the wind coming through the ruins.

"My child..." continued Toriel, smiling. "What is your name?"

The human paused, staring up at Toriel with quite a bit of confusion.

"....Jesse." The human responded. "My name is Jesse."










End.
