Chapitre 21: Chapter 21 - Chara and Bowser
You know, I'm shocked you aren't reacting to this more intensely.
Micro smirked a bit as he, Sugar, and Spike were walking to the park. They decided to try one of his memory dungeons. The Mushroom Kingdom one since they mainly just wanted to see what it was like and to take it a bit easier.
Spike told him that Scootaloo and the other girls went off to do their own thing, and how Scootaloo seemed upset for some reason. He would have to check on that.
'And why would I do that?' Micro thought back to Chara.
Well I'm literally the embodiment of a genocide run in that game and am in your head!
He had to stifle a chuckle at her tone.
'Seems you're the one having the most intense reaction.' She went silent at that. 'Well…' He prompted.
...shut up...why aren't you more angry?!
'Well the way I see it, you will only gain power over me if I let you. That's what happens with Frisk right? And you clearly can't just take me over since you haven't done so already.'
...good point…
'My best guess is that Gamer's Mind probably gives me a decent shield from your influence, so instead of a actual force in my head, you're more of a constant pestering voice.'
Hey!
'As such, I figured I have no reason to worry about you. Besides, you should be at least a bit satisfied watching my dungeon dives. I basically perform a genocide route every time I enter one.'
Chara seemed to think about that for a bit and he felt a reluctant sense of agreement from her.
Good point...not the same as being in control though. Maybe I could…
'You will not control my body.'
You better hope I don't get out of here!
'May I ask a question? Why are you like this?'
You've played the game. You know why.
'And you know it is just a game in this world as well as why I did it. Unlike some people, I know it's the players actions that poison you to becoming the genocidal monster they view you as and not just how you are naturally.'
After playing through the game for the first time a while ago, he had read up on the lore and alternate dialogue choices. Chara basically is the games narrator and based on if you kill or spare everything, her attitude seems to change. Killing and she's negative before eventually seeming to take over, while sparing leads them to be more positive and show a sarcastic and joking side. She was never intended to be inherently evil. She just gets her personality changed if the player decides to make Frisk kill, showing her humans are violent scum like she thought.
And how do you know that the world you played through and killed isn't real? I came out of it. I'm a true soul. What's to say the others weren't?You killed my mom, dad, and brother! Even assuming that those versions were just data!
Micro lost all mirth at that. She had a point.
Exactly. You are just like the other humans. If I ever get out...
'I'm sorry.'
….what?
'I didn't even consider that my actions in the game could have any influence like that. Maybe you are from that actual world and are the last surviving remnant. Maybe my ability sucked you from a world where that actually happened and joined you with me. Maybe it just created you to simulate how the game is and punish me like Toby Fox did to all genocide route players. Either way, I'm sorry.'
You think saying that fixes what you did. Even assuming that the world I came from isn't the same as the game world you played through, you still destroyed an entire world for power. My family and friends!
'If I could change it I would. I wish there was some way to find out which is true. But assuming that I didn't kill any real version of them, I don't regret my actions.'
And why is that?!
'Because let's assume you were from a world that was destroyed, you would just be in a void or a loop of the world being destroyed over and over. Or if you were just created from my action, then you never would've been if I didn't do what I did.'
…
'I truly do believe that world was just data programmed by a game creator, and not some portal into another universe where I dictate what happens. Even so, I am sorry for what I did and I will never do a genocide route again.'
Micro didn't hear anything else from Chara. Maybe she was thinking over what he said. Maybe she was just plotting someway to take control. He hoped it was the former.
"Micro!" Spike shouted. Micro jumped and looked around. They were at the park, specifically the forest trail. "You ok man? You were spaced out for a bit."
"Oh yeah…' Micro said, forcing himself to act normal. "I'm good. I just have a project being worked on back home that I was thinking about."
His friend just nodded and looked around.
"Looks like no one is here," he said.
"Ok," Sugar said. "So, we ready to stomp some Goombahs?"
"You bet! I have a few new abilities I want to check out." Micro said as he raised his hand. The world around them broke and they were sucked into the dungeon.
The world around them became much more animated. The trees were more colorful, the grass was vibrant, and human size turtles and small brown creatures were walking around.
Koopas

HP 750/750
MP 0
Turtles in service to the king of their kind.
Goombahs
Lv 7
HP 500/500
MP 0

"Well guys?" Micro said as he pulled out a pokeball. "Let me introduce you to my new friend."
He threw it up in the air and out popped Litten. His friends stared at the black and red cat and then back at Micro.
"How did…?"
"After I beat Pokémon Ultra Moon, I got the choice to choose one of the starters," Micro said and he reached down to pet Litten. "Now…"
He raised his hand in an uppercut and a spire of earth shot up underneath the nearest Goombah, knocking it into the air.
"Ember!" Micro called. The fire cat sent a burst of flame at the flying monster and did massive damage. When it hit the ground, it fell on its head and flattened before bursting into smoke. "Look like these guys will be just as easy as we thought."

"Since when could you control earth?!" Sugar gasped.
"Since my meeting with Celestia," he responded nonchalantly. "Now, do you two want to get some training in or is it just going to be me and Litten?"
The other two just looked at him for a moment and sighed.
"Nothing is ever normal with you anymore," The said in unison. Micro rubbed his head sheepishly, just as a spiky ball nearly smashed into his head from behind.
Look out!
Micro spun around, registering the ball in one second and then drew the billy club in the next and batted it to the side.
'Thanks,' He said to Chara. 'Does this mean…?'
Not even close. I just know unlike Frisk you don't have the power to Save and Load. If you die here, so do I.
'Fair enough,' Micro sighed. He hoped someday they could be friends but at least now it didn't seem like she was going to get him killed. He looked at the spiked ball as it unfolded into a spiked turtle.
Spiny
Lv 8
HP 376/500
MP 0
A spiked turtle usually thrown by a Lakitu to drop on unexpectant players.
Looking up, he saw the source of them. A small green shelled turtle with glasses on a cloud.
Lakitu

HP 1000/1000
MP 0
A subspecies of koopa who like to fly around and throw Spinys down on unexpectant players
"You want to take care of that one Spike?"
His friend had already shifted into Dracokin form and shot a ball of fire at the creature. It threw a few Spinys that intercepted the blast and fell down toward the group. Sugar held his bat and hit one as it came close, sending it flying into a Goombah, crushing the creature flat.
A splash of water was heard and Micro turned to see a Cheep Cheep flying at him from a nearby lake. With a smirk he raised his hand and a tendril of water shot from the lake and wrapped around the creature, squeezing it until it popped.
Skill Created!
Water Tendril (Lv1)

Micro silently grumbled as he heard Chara chuckle. He turned just in time to get a fireball to the face, knocking him back on his rear.
'Why didn't you warn me of that one!?'
It didn't kill you. Hey I may not want you to die but I wouldn't mind seeing you suffer a bit.
With a sigh Micro realized that things weren't going to be easy with her in his head as long as they were at odds with each other. He looked to where the fireball came from in time to dodge another.
Piranha Plant
Lv 12
HP 1000/1000
MP 450/500
A sentient plant that can occasionally breath fire.
A few of them lined the forest path. Spike tried to set them on fire but they just shot their own burst to intercept.
"Litten," Micro said. The fire cat looked up at him. "When I move forward start using scratch on the stalks." With his Pokémon nodding, he drew the dagger Celestia gave him.
Now you're speaking my language.
A small smile played across his face as Micro charged one line of the plants and Litten shot toward the other. They lashed out with claw and knife, severing the plants from their stalks. Sugar and Spike following behind them and crushed the head of the plants into the ground.
These attacks continued for a while, until finally there seemed to be nothing left in the forest. Micro panted and high fives his friends.
Aren't you forgetting something.
'What now Chara?'
The boss…
Micro went wide eyed as he realized she was right. A loud roar was heard.
"Tell me that isn't who I think it is," Sugar moaned.
"It isn't who you think it is," Spike responded.
"Liar!"
The group turned and saw a large yellow bodied turtle creature standing in the middle of the path. It had a large green shell with spikes across the back. Black, spiked, leather bands adorned his arms and neck. Horns sprouted from his head as well as a tuft of reddish orange hair.
Bowser
Lv 30
HP 5000/5000
MP 1000/1000
The boys barely had time to register before a large fire blast shot toward them. Micro held his hands in front of him and focused his magic. He caught the ball of fire but screamed a bit as it burned his palms. He threw it to the side and Sugar handed him a green lollipop. Spike charged forward and dodged around some additional blasts.
When Spike got too close for fire, Bowser reared back a fist and brought it down toward the dracokin. Spike caught the fist with his own, his knees beginning to buckle as he struggled against the King Koopa.
"What do we do?" Sugar asked Micro. The young Gamer tried to think of something just as a communication notification appeared.
Hey boss, we finished analyzing the basic bots. What do you want us to do
Micro answered immediately.
Dump them into the inventory and the sensor now!
The second he saw them appear, he pulled out the control sensor. It was a band with wiring attached to a red and white and white kabuki mask. He slid it on.
"What're you…" Sugar started. Micro didn't take the time to respond and held the inventory screen in front of him. With a mental command, a swarm of small black machines shot out. Not too many, but hopefully enough.
Micro directed the machines to get behind Bowser and grab his tail. Fast as thought, the microbots listened to his command and hoisted the overgrown turtle into the air.
'Spin him into the lake!' He commanded. Like Mario in 64, the machines twirled Bowser in the air and let go, sending him flying and splashing down into the water.
"Thanks," Spike panted. "He is strong. What are those things?" He hadn't seen Micro's mask.
"The microbots from Big Hero 6," the young Gamer said, Litten hopping onto his shoulders. "I'll explain more later but we have bigger fish to fry!"
Rising from the water with a roar, Bowser shot a wave of fireballs at them. They were quickly swallowed in a wall of water courtesy of Micro.
Skill Created!
Water Wall (Lv 1)
Active (MP cost varies on size)
Create a defensive wall of water
Micro summoned forth a Gaster Blaster and began sinking blast after blast into the king of koopas, sucking on a purple lollipop that Sugar handed him. Bowser growled at the shots before turning around and backing toward them, the shell seeming to deflect the shots.
3287/5000
Micro dismissed the blaster and tried to think of another strategy as Spike ran around the lake to try and get in front and fire his own shots.
Is it gone?
'Bowser? No! He's right in front of us!'
I meant that cursed blaster! I hate those frickin things.
Micro rolled his eyes at that before he commanded the microbots again. They formed a fist and slammed into Bowser's face.
"RAAAWWWRRR!" With a loud roar, Bowser jumped into the air and tucked into his shell before spinning toward the boys on the shore. He skipped across the water like a stone. Micro barely was able to command water tendrils and his microbots to grab the spinning shell to slow it down. It stopped just inches from his face and Micro sighed.
Don't relax you idiot!
Micro looked up and saw Bowser's face still inside its shell grinning. A ball of fire shot out and slammed into him, sending him flying.
734/1100
Micro caught himself in the air with the microbots and flew back towards Bowser, who was about to claw Sugar. With a growl of anger, Micro sent a storm of Magic Arrows down into Bowser as he flew by. With his attention now locked into Micro, Sugar sped away and Spike appeared in front of the boss.
"Let me show you what a real dragon can do you overgrown turtle!" Spike jumped up and uppercutted Bowser, sending him stumbling back and onto the ground.
Bowser just opened his eye in time to see a large spike of earth held above him. Micro carved it out with his magic but was using the microbots to hold it up since he was low on magic.
"Eat this!" Micro called and the bots pushed the spire down toward king koopa's head. Bowser tried to pull himself up but the spines of his shell made him stick fast into the ground. In a desperate last move he breathed a stream of fire. All it did was slow it down slightly, but with his mouth wide open, the spike found a soft spot to pierce.
With one of the most iconic villains in video games defeated, the body began fading away. The shell seemed to shrink to human size before staying where it was. Micro set himself down and took off the mask after ordering the bots back into his inventory.
"Those things are useful," Spike said.
"Just wait until I upgrade them," Micro responded. He walked over to the shell and stowed it away. "How about we get out of here?"
His friends nodded and they escaped the ID. As they left the forest however, a familiar face leaned out from a nearby tree.
"Well," Fluttershy said with a smirk. "Seems I was right about him being powerful."
