Did you miss me?

Will they sprout in time? I don't have time to consider whether or not it'll work, just gotta do it!

Four bones sprout from the ground right in front of where Eri and Lemillion are, Lemillion lands in front of Eri. The bones dissipate, then... Silence... My eye sockets widen as I see a small red bullet piercing  Lemillion's back. I... wasn't fast enough... 

"The diseased... have been given Quirks, and that lets them dream. Thinking you can actually become something is an illness of the mind, it's funny!" Overhaul says as he stands, I can't stuff up again, I need to keep his hands off the ground! "With the power of that girl you've come here to save, everything you've worked to cultivate... has now gone to waste!" He shouts, I summon a bone which hits his wrists, keeping them off the ground. Then a familiar sound echo's through the room as a flash of red passes by me, I dodge just before getting hit.

"Quick on your feet as always, you really never change~" I hear a familiar voice say, I turn to see them... "Hey, Sans~ Did you miss me? =) " They say, I feel a cold chill run through my body.

"I hope you don't mind, but I brought an acquaintance of yours." Overhaul says as a bunch of spikes spring up out of the ground, I don't move... I'm frozen in place... I need to move... Why can't I move?! Fear? Shock? Before I can get any more caught up in my thoughts, I feel something pull me out of the way.

"Karmic, snap out of it!" I hear Lemillion say, I blink my eyes a few times and take a deep breath. I need to focus on what's important, saving Eri. 

"What's the matter, Sans? Are you surprised to see me? Last time I saw you was such a fun time, I especially enjoyed the look that your dear little brother gave me before he-" They say, but before they get a chance to finish, a bone sprouts out of the ground and hits them in the jaw. Anger consumes me as I charge toward them, I grab their soul and slam it against the far wall.

"you should be gone! you should be stuck in the underground alone! living with all your regrets!" I yell, summoning blaster after blaster, they dodge most of them, but since they haven't seen my new attack pattern, they can't know what I'm doing. "you should be burning in hell!" I yell as I blast them again. I take a small glance over to where Lemillion is to see he's fighting Overhaul alone without his Quirk. Damn it! I let them get to me! Just as I go to help Lemillion, another attack flashes in my view, which yet again I dodge.

"Come on, Sans, aren't you enjoying our little game?" They say.

"i don't have time for your distractions, frisk!" I yell as blue bones sprout out underneath them, I run over to help Lemillion.

"You can't run from me forever~" Frisk yells with a deranged smile. I blast Overhaul with a blaster, grab Lemillion and teleport over to the other side of the room.

"keep eri and yourself out of the way, i don't want either of you getting any more hurt than you already are!" I say as I run at Overhaul, I dodge his spikes and teleport in front of him. I summon a blaster on my right hand and blast him in the stomach, I then summon a bone in my left hand. I put one end of the bone on the ground and extend it, using the bone to propel me forward. I land a brutal hit on his jaw, he stumbles back and falls over. Spikes shoot up from the ground, I create a bone wall as fast as I can, but it gets demolished, and I get multiple wounds. I teleport out of the way before I get a serious injury.
I quickly check the blue bones to see if Frisk is still there, they're still secure. I turn back to Overhaul and see Lemillion attacking him. I see Eri surrounded by spikes, I have to get her out of the way before helping Lemillion.
I teleport over to Eri and pick her up, then I move her to the outskirts of the room. Tears are falling, terror obvious in her eyes. I want to say something, but what can I say? I think saying something would make the situation worse. I give her a weak smile and turn to face Overhaul. Lemillion is standing about 2 meters in front of Eri and me, I notice a large spike piercing his side. How is he still standing? I should've been faster! I shouldn't have let him fight! It's my fault he's hurt... Why do I keep messing up? Why do I keep getting others hurt!

"Did you want to become a hero that badly? To save Eri that badly Lemillion? How does it feel knowing you've failed to protect them, Karmic? It's all a filthy disease of our time. I'll fix people like you. With Eri's power." Lemillion yanks his side off of the spike.

"Chisaki!" Lemillion yells as he goes to charge at him yet again, I pick up Eri and get ready to grab Lemillion and dodge.

"I thought I told you I threw that name away!" Overhaul yells as spikes begin to form out of the ground again. Suddenly a loud crashing noise fills the room, and Deku, Nighteye and Eraserhead emerge through a newly formed hole in the wall. Deku hits Overhaul in the shoulder, which sends him flying, Eraserhead activates his Quirk.

"Nighteye, Secure those who need treatment!" Eraserhead yells, I then remember Lemillion's wounds.

"Lemillion, we need to get you out of here. I can heal you we need to get you somewhere safe, you and Eri." I say as I walk over to him, Nighteye rushes over.

"Eri is... behind... me..." Lemillion says, Nighteye grabs Lemillion, Eri and me and gives us what I can only guess is a hug.

"It's fine now... You were amazing." Nighteye says, I glance over to see Eraserhead and Deku attacking Overhaul.

"Nighteye, get them to a safe spot, then call me over so I can heal Lemillion, for now, I'm going to help take Overhaul down!" I yell as I run toward them, Eraserhead is seemingly floating in the air, and Deku is charging at Overhaul. Eraserhead doesn't have his Quirk activated anymore, which means Overhaul has his Quirk back. I teleport next to Deku, grab him and teleport us high enough to avoid the spikes. I grab Deku and my soul and use a little trick I've been meaning to put to some use for quite a while. Deku and I land on the ceiling, he looks confused.

"if you're wondering, i changed the direction of our soul's gravity." I say, Deku has a small amount of shock on his face but gains his composure and nods. I look up, or is it down now? Whatever. I look over to Overhaul and see that the unconscious body of Nemoto is at his feet. Overhaul grabs his face, and it seems to crack, kinda like glass. Suddenly there's, and explosion of white smoke that surrounds Overhaul, all I can see from here is a weird looking silhouette.

"Now! I'll have you return, Eri!" Overhaul yells. Did he merge himself with Nemoto? His mask seems to be merged with his face, and he now has four very odd and misshaped arms along with lots of large black lines covering parts of his skin. What the ever-despising existence is that!
