Again their soul broke, shattering against the onslaught of bones impaling their small form. Frisk didn’t even flinch anymore at this point - what was the point? They had gotten used to the pain long ago already, eyes empty as they just allowed for themselves to be broken over and over again by Sans’ attacks.
What had they been trying to achieve with all this in the first place...? It had been fear at first. The fear of getting killed again. Then it had been anger. Of being attacked, accused of crimes that they had never committed. And, along with it, there had been this overwhelming sense of power. It had influenced Chara, whose own excitement about the situation echoed back to Frisk and causing the two of them to amplify each other’s emotions immensely.
But not anymore. If the original aim had been to avoid dying, then what were they doing now...? None of the others had stood a chance against them. None but Sans - and now all Frisk knew was death. For how long had they been fighting him now... hours? Days? They lost tracks in between all those resets, lost in a maelstrom of shattering and reforming over and over again.
The blaster evaporated their body. The fight started over again, Frisk dodging the first few attacks absentmindedly. No longer really paying attention. Letting Sans throw them about like a rag doll. What was the point...?
They were tired. So tired... bones, like spears, tore through their body, impaling them on ivory stakes. How many times had this happened now? How many more times would it still happen? They could already feel their soul reaching its limit yet again. Red eyes caught the empty sockets of Sans. His words when he spoke were far away, blackness already taking over their senses. But they understood them.
Give up, kid.
They could see the button flashing before them, out in the darkness. The strange interface, glimmering next to the safe point. And they made a decision, reaching out and brushing their fingers against the faintly glowing word before them. They could hear Chara’s voice in their head, trying to stop them. Could feel the confusion and anger from them. But they had already given the command.
Reset.
And with that, the world around them fell apart, crumbling into nothingness as their consciousness faded.
