Story & Route Details
The Fall
You're in pain everywhere. The golden flowers that were probably here to cushion your fall are covered with stones due to the cave-ins. During your fall, you also hit the mountain walls, leaving visible scratches on your body.
"Uh.... Seriously? A human? At this moment? This is the worst time you could have arrived... And on top of that, you're covered in wounds... let me help you... Catch these petals, will you?"
Your soul manages to move to follow his instructions. You lose 5 HP. Flowey sighs and shrugs his "shoulders."
"Howdy... I'm Flowey... Flowey the Flower... but given this situation, you should know that this is not the right time for stupid introductions... So... I'm not going to pretend, and ask you nicely... give me your SOUL."
Flowey grabs you with his vines. He giggles in a really... very creepy way. You struggle with all your strength. "It's useless." You struggle once more. The battle begins, you see your SOUL shaking before you.
Flowey's Twisted Tutorial
You spare Flowey despite the fear that paralyzes you. You have no desire to kill.
"What?... Ha! What an idiot! You spare me? When you're not even in a position to do so. Ugh. Listen. You see this heart? It's your soul. This soul is the culmination of your being."
You struggle. Flowey tightens his grip and you lose 2 HP.
"LISTEN. TO. ME. I hate repeating myself. You're losing health points stupidly. But... At first, your soul is weak. But it becomes more powerful... you gain a lot of LV. You may be wondering what LV means, huh? Well... it stands for... LOVE."
You look confused.
"Don't give me that look, will you? LOVE stands for Level Of Violence. The more EXP you gain, the more LOVE you gain. And the more EXP you gain, the higher your Level becomes. That's how your SOUL becomes stronger. Understand? Now you understand why I wanted your SOUL? Huh?"
Flowey begins to have a frightening face.
"We're both weak. One of us must perish here... because down here... it's KILL or BE KILLED. *Sadistic laugh* Nobody will help you... Nobody will save you... Especially not in this situation."
He mutters to himself: "That stupid Toriel must surely be packing her bags..."
You see a vine rise above you. You have no chance of survival... hehehee... Petals will surround your entire SOUL as well. "Now... DIE."
An opportunity presents itself and you manage to escape. Flowey will follow you by going in and out from underground. You run through the ruins to try to save your life. (Several events later, for example encounters with a scared Froggit...) You manage to escape from Flowey and arrive in front of a house... surely Toriel's, as Flowey had said?
Pacifist Route
The human asks the monsters for help, finding them less scary than the enemies from the Surface she encountered before. The monsters are less reluctant than in Undertale given the human's situation, who looked in bad shape, and decide to help her, although they are initially more distrustful of humans given the previous war which was very violent and bloody.
The human will then also have to convince the monsters who haven't left their homes yet to go to a safe place with Alphys and the others. There are monsters who are more or less easy to convince, except for Asgore because he doesn't want to start a second war and believes that the 6 souls are not enough either to beat them or to destroy the barrier.
Genocide Route
The human accidentally killed a Froggit who stood in their way. She felt guilty, but seeing that her HP had increased, she thought that maybe by killing more monsters she would have a high HP, and would be stronger and capable of saving the world if she killed them.
And when her DETERMINATION took control, she told herself that it wasn't a great loss since monsters are monsters and were going to die from the cave-in anyway, and began her genocide.
In this genocide, unlike in Undertale, Chara is alive, and will try to stop the genocide, with the help of Sans and Gaster, a bit like in Bad Time Trio except without Swap Papyrus.
Sans's genocide battle, except he knows nothing about timelines, anomalies, resets, loads, saves. He's just... even more devastated, and was never a scientist. He fights to the death thinking he's lost everything forever—his friends, his brother... forever. It's like Last Breath except there will be more dialogue, and stuff where he insults our grandmothers.
The Royal Guard & War Changes
The Royal Guard will no longer be to capture humans but to fight and ensure the survival of monsters, and many of them will join, including War!Sans and War!Papyrus.
Papyrus does his best and is much more excited about having to fight and defend others, although later he will abandon this idea, because Flowey will make it clear to him that it's KILL or BE KILLED, when he has to confront merciless humans on the Surface.
Sans didn't want to join the Royal Guard at first, but seeing that Papyrus begged him, he just wanted to please his little brother. War!Sans doesn't like using his Gaster Blasters but he knows in this situation he's forced to do it, especially if his brother's life is at stake.
Mettaton will receive modifications to be even stronger, approaching the strength of Mettaton NEO in Undertale, although his defense will not be -4000 but 40. He will guide the other monsters under Alphys's orders and protect them.
At some point, they will be forced to use the 6 children's souls, because the fight will start to become difficult. Flowey will eventually try to seize them.
Monsters who are not capable of fighting, like Gerson, will secure their rear and provide everything the warriors need.
Other Characters & Details
War!Napstablook
A few monsters will refuse to leave their home, like War!Napstablook, trying to save the music he made, his house, and his memories with his cousins (Mettaton, Mad Dummy who is "Mad Mew Mew"). He will tell the human that anyway he's a ghost and he'll manage, he will ask the human to go to a safe place HERSELF, because since he's a ghost he can't be hurt, but given the difficulties he'll have finding his way, the human will convince him to finally leave.
The Temmies
The Temmies will be very agitated, some of them will manage to get out of Temmie Village.
War!Muffet
War!Muffet, who cares a lot about her home and her spider family, may be the "Final Boss," at least in the Underground.
