CONTINUED TALE

Asgore can't do it. He just can't bring himself to kill children. Instead, he asks Sans, Gaster's child and the new Judge, telling him that's what the role entails. Sans isn't convinced, he really isn't. But then a child falls in the underground, he goes to meet them and- and- He didn't mean to. He swear, he didn't mean to.

The LV is already in his system, though, the soul absorbed.

It was an accident.

The next one wasn't slain by Sans, but by Undyne, and the soul was lost forever as it wasn't collected in time.

Except, Sans is getting sick, and sicker, and sicker some more, because he's not a boss monster, he's not made to harbour more than one soul and the human's is consuming his own, slowly, agonizingly. Alphys can't help, so Asgore has another, worse idea: he gives Sans more Souls. Sans doesn't want them, but hey, if he's gonna die anyway, might as well try to keep the rest of the monsters alive. He tries not to think about the kids.

He now has three souls in his system, two kids escaped, one kid is plain dead, and a seventh falls in the underground. Sans dies, and finds out he can actually continue from his last save point...
