Chapter 19

- And why are you telling me all this? Do you think your help will be useful to me?

?: Of course!

- And why do you want to help me? There are many others who need help.

?: Well... I feel a lot of things in other souls. But in your soul...

I felt a warmth in my chest.

?: There is nothing. It's like you're not alive. How can such people exist?

- How long can I talk? I'm not a human, I'm a hybri-

Dr. Sans: Good morning Max! How are you feeling?

- Am I still sleeping?

?: No.

Max: Normal.

Dr. Sans: Oh. Max. You won't be able to feel normal anymore.

Max: I know. Did you bring the pills?

Dr. Sans: Right! I almost forgot about them.

Dr. Sans handed me the pills, but then realized that I couldn't take them.

Dr. Sans: Oh. Sorry! Open your mouth.

When I complied with his request and swallowed the pill, I felt a little better.

- It's a pity that he doesn't have pills for paralysis.

?: Actually, he said that you have a chance to heal.

- How do you know that? You weren't here-

?: I have access to your memories. So what? Now are you impressed by my superiority over you?

- Don't be so smug. And don't get into my memories at all.

?: Whatever you say.

Dr. Sans: So... Today we will try to get you on your feet. So we'll give you an injection by lunchtime.

Max: Ok.

Nurse: Dr. Sans! There's a girl calling you.

Dr. Sans: What other girl?

Nurse: I don't know. She said she wanted to see you.

Dr. Sans: Good. I'll be right back.

- By the way, about memories. The dream I had was your doing?

?: What? No. What does this have to do with it?

- You're lying. Transvoid can cause hallucinations and drive people crazy. Why did you do that?

?: ... I've never done this before, so I wanted to try it...

- And of course you decided to try it on me?

?: Yes... But I promise I won't do it again.

- We'll see.

Error Betty: MAX!

Suddenly Error Betty jumped out of the door and hugged me.

Max: Betty. It hurts.

Error Betty: Please forgive me! I didn't mean to...

Max: It's okay. Better tell me, what are you doing here?

Error Betty: Core Frisk said you woke up and that's why I came here.

Max: I see. So you didn't remember anything?

Error Betty: Nope. Although this thing reminds me of something.
She pointed her finger at the blue ball that was rubbing against her cheek.
