Part FinalB - The Surface

Music to play over the scenario. Our little group of friends walk out of the door and find themselves standing on the mountain, staring at the setting sun.

Holly: I- Is that...?

ZC!Sans looks at the sun confused, and he turns to ZC!Papyrus.

ZC!Sans: BROTHER! WHAT IS THAT BIG THING IN THE SKY?

ZC!Papyrus: that's called the sun bro.

ZC!Sans: WOWIE! THE SUN LOOKS SO COOL!

ZC!Papyrus: not as cool as you bro.

ZC!Sans: BROTHER! I THOUGHT WE AGREED NOT TO MAKE THIS ALL ABOUT ME!

ZC!Papyrus: heh. sorry bro, you're just too cool.

As ZC!Sans and Papyrus talk to one another, the focus shifts back to the main group.

Will: Heck yeah! The sun freaking RULES!

Josh: I- It's so pretty...

Holly begins to tear up as she reaches out towards the sun.

Enflared: It almost feels like you can touch it, doesn't it Holly?

Holly: I- I can't believe it... I can't believe I'm actually looking at the sun with you by my side.

Enflared smiles at Holly, then turns to Aurora.

Enflared: Well kid, we made it to the surface again. Was it worth it?

Well, since we were able to save every soul, I would say it was worth it.

So, who's going to be the one to tell the others about the resets? I'll give you that choice, buddy.

Aurora looks out at the sun for a brief moment before turning back to Enflared.

Aurora: I'll tell them if you find a way to get their attention.

Enflared nods and looks over at the other groups looking out at the sun.

Winter: This feels so familiar...

Enflared: That's because this has already happened.

The other groups turn to Ross and look at him, dumbfounded.

Winter: What do you mean Enflared?

Enflared: I'm not the one you should really be asking.

Enflared looks over at Aurora and puts his hand on her shoulder.

Enflared: Aurora, this is your moment. I believe in you, just put it gently.

Aurora turns to the groups and sighs.

Aurora: Josh, how much do you know about the idea of determination and the will to change time?

Josh coughs slightly and begins to sweat.

Josh: D- Determination? O- Oh yeah! I- I had a theory that an extremely d- determined person could turn back time if they w- were determined enough. W- Why?

Aurora: That theory is true, Josh.

Jackie: What are you going on about, Aurora darling?

Aurora: I have the power to turn back time to the moment I fell into the underground... the ability to "reset."

Will: Kind of like a video game?

Aurora: Yeah. I have the ability to reload when someone kills me, and the ability to save in certain spots, in order to create points to return to if I die at any point.

Everyone is silent for a moment, taking in what Aurora has just told them.

Winter: You aren't going to reset... are you?

Aurora: No. I made a promise to Enflared. It isn't right to deny you all your happiness. Everything is perfect now, and I don't want to ruin that for you guys. Besides, I made a promise to Enflared and Holly that I wouldn't reset anymore.

There is silence for a few seconds.

Will: Who's Holly?

Holly: Th- That's me!

Enflared: She was trapped in a type of void-space, but with Aurora's help, we saved her and a few of the other people who are here with us now.

For a few seconds, no words are spoken.

Will: You know, now that you mention it, I understand resetting.

Enflared: You do?

Will: Yeah. I actually had an odd feeling when I fought Aurora, like I had fought them once before, and that I was looking at... a friend?

Jackie: Oh yeah! Me too darling?

Damien: R- Really sis......?

Jackie: Yes Damien! I had this odd feeling that I had performed with them once before.

Staci: NOW THAT YOU SAY IT, THEIR FACE DID LOOK FAMILIAR, DIDN'T IT JORDAN?

Jordan is silent, staring at Aurora.

Staci: JORDAN?

Jordan snaps back to attention and sighs.

Jordan: I knew. The second I saw their face, I remembered everything.

Jordan narrows his eyes, almost looking angry.

Jordan: At first, I thought you were going to put us through a constant loop of suffering. Making us do this again and again, or maybe you'd try to commit genocide...

Jordan sighed and smiled warmly.

Jordan: But you didn't... thanks kid.

Aurora smiled and nodded.

Emily: Me too. I just never said anything.

Sam: The way they told me they did not want to fight... it did feel somewhat familiar.

Winter: Your kind smile, that's why I felt like I had seen it before.

Damien: Now that you say it...... I guess I did feel like I had invited you over to my house once before......

Adrian: You DID calm me down rather quickly, like you knew what you were doing.

Ava: My cats were giving you a look like they knew you, now I suppose I understand why.

Shelbi: The way you danced, it felt warm and... familiar. I guess it makes sense now.

Jeremy: Yo! It all makes so much sense now!

Ricky: I knew I wasn't imagining that feeling of familiarity.

Ari: I already knew from the start. The way you looked at me when you first saw me when I was that flower.

There is silence for a second or two, before everyone turns to look at Chloe.

Chloe: ...

Enflared: You knew the second you saw me by the lamp, didn't you?

Chloe: I did. I completely remembered the resets. At first, I didn't understand why they did reset... but... now that all of these people are here, people that you two saved... I suppose I do understand why now.

Everybody nods and they all turn back to look at the setting sun.

Holly: So, what now?

Chloe: Well! This group needs an official mascot!

ZC!Sans's face lights up and he jumps next to Chloe

ZC!Sans: MASCOTS?

Chloe: Sure! It'd be nice to have a partner! C'mon! Let's go greet those humans!

Chloe and ZC!Sans start to leave, before ZC!Sans has fully left, he turns to ZC!Papyrus.

ZC!Sans: COME ON BROTHER! LET'S GO!

ZC!Papyrus chuckles and nods as ZC!Sans runs out.

ZC!Papyrus: well, i had better make sure they don't cause any problems. enflared? could i talk with you later? with holly and the kid?

Enflared: Of course Paps, I'll just be a minute!

ZC!Papyrus nods and follows ZC!Sans.

Will: Gosh darn it Chloe! WAIT FOR ME! I WANNA MEET THE HUMANS TOO!

Will runs out on ZC!Papyrus's heels.

Josh: I- I think I'll h- help that Papyrus guy w- with making sure they d- don't cause any problems.

Josh runs after Will.

Ava: Say Shelbi, I was wondering. Working by myself is really lonely...

Shelbi: Are you... offering me a job?

Ava: Are you a good baker?

Shelbi: Yeah!

Ava: Come on then! Let's go make plans!

Shelbi and Ava run down the mountain after Josh.

Jeremy: Come on sis! Let's go see the humans!

Jill: Ok!

''Jeremy and Jill run down the mountain. Jill stops Jeremy from tripping, to which Jeremy and Jill both laugh before continuing out.''

Staci: YOU KNOW JORDAN... I THINK BEFORE WE GO PREACH TO THOSE PEOPLE, WE BOTH NEED A BREAK TO FIGURE OUT HOW I CAN PREACH TO THEM WITHOUT SCARING THEM.

Jordan: You saying you want to take a little break?

Staci: IS THAT WRONG OF ME?

Jordan: Not at all. I'll help you find some ways to relax here on the surface, come on pal.

The two leave, talking to one another.

Jackie: Well darlings, we've got a whole new audience! Why not make our new crowd adore us?!

Adrian: I like it!

Damien: Oh...... sure...... sounds great!

The three walk out, Jackie leading the way.

Ricky: Say, your name is Kio, right?

Kio: Yeah! You're Ricky, aren't you?

Ricky: I am! Do you maybe want to go see the humans or take a walk or something?

Kio: A walk sounds nice. Let's go!

Kio and Ricky walk out, laughing and talking to one another.

Sam: ...Winter?

Winter: Yeah Sam?

Sam: I truly am sorry for what I have done. Even if I have not killed directly, I have committed an atrocity. Do you think you could find it in your heart to... forgive me?

Winter: Oh Sam, of course I forgive you.

Sam: Then can we... be friends again?

Winter: Of course Sam! Let's go down with the others, ok?

Sam: That sounds lovely.

Winter: I assume you'll catch up with us?

Enflared: Yeah, we'll catch up. See you soon.

Winter and Sam walk out, leaving Aurora, Enflared, Holly, Emily, and Ari.

Emily: Can I talk to you later Enflared?

Ross: Of course Emily.

Emily: G- Great! I'll see you down there!

''Emily runs after Winter and Sam, leaving Aurora, the two lovebirds, and Ari on the mountain. Ari turns to Aurora and gives her a patient smile. The sun has fully set and the moon begins to rise in the sky. The remaining group on the mountain stares up at the moon for a moment, before Ari looks at Aurora.''

Ari: So Aurora... what's your plan now?

Enflared and Holly stop looking up at moon and look at Aurora as well.

Enflared: Hey... Aurora?

Aurora: Yeah Enflared?

Enflared: Do you remember how before the first reset you did, I offered you a home...? How I offered you could stay with me instead of going back to your abusive home?

Aurora: Yeah?

Enflared: We never got to go through with that plan because of the reset, so... I wanted to ask... Would you like to live with Holly, Froggy, and I?

Aurora stares at Enflared and gives him a big smile, her eyes filling up with tears.

Aurora: I- I would love nothing more.

''Aurora hugs Enflared tightly and Enflared hugs back. Holly smiles and hugs Aurora as well.''

Ari: Hey... Enflared...?

Enflared stops hugging Aurora and turns to look at Ari.

Enflared: Yes Ari?

Ari begins to tear up as she looks away from Enflared, Holly, and Aurora.

Ari: I- I don't really have a family as far as I know. Th- The closest thing I ever had to a family was Maggy... S- So, is it ok... i- if I-

Enflared hugs Ari and smiles.

Enflared: Of course Ari, you are welcome to live with Holly, Froggy, Aurora, and I. If you will have us.

Ari: Th- Thank you.

Enflared: Of course. In a way, I suppose we are all... Like a family, huh?

Aurora: Yeah, you and Holly as a mother and father, Froggy as a cute pet, and Ari and I as your kids.

Enflared: That sounds lovely. We'll have chocolate and pie by the fire... Laughing, and telling stories and jokes... Like a family.

Holly: I like the sound of that.

The group looks up at the moon for a little while longer, before Enflared smiles and clears his throat.

Enflared: We should probably go meet up with the others.

Holly: Yeah! Come on guys! The night is still young!

Ari: Come on Aurora! Let's go!

Aurora: Guys, wait... I have something else to tell you.

Enflared: What is it Aurora?

Aurora: Maggy is inside of me.

Ari: Huh? Wh- What do you mean?

Aurora: Maggy has been following me around... like a ghost, narrating what I was doing throughout my entire journey. I just wanted to let you know so we could accept one more member...?

Enflared: That sounds great. She is welcome in our family too, then.

Ari: It's nice to know Maggy is here in spirit then.

''The groups laughs, then heads down the mountain as the screen fades to black. Everything is going to be perfect now.''
