Okay, so this is Part 1 of a series that I am writing for Undertale. Each part will focus on a different AU, but every AU that appears before each part will be able to visit the new AU that is introduced in each part. I will not do every AU - there's over 700! No way in Hell I'm doing any of that shit!
So, I'll focus on maybe 10 or so, maybe 20 if I keep up my interest in the series. Each part may or may not be small, but I'm planning on a wider story arc throughout the series, unlike the My Little Avengers crossover series I have written a few years ago.
Each part may vary in rating, depending on the AU. There will be at least one that will be rated M for sexual content (I'm sure you guys can understand which AU I really look forward to ┬┴┬┴┤ ͜ʖ ͡°) ├┬┴┬┴).
Please enjoy!
Sans sighed and looked up at the sunset before him. Papyrus was right; it was beautiful. His seemingly perpetual smile widened slightly for his bro, knowing that Papyrus would be so happy for what time they had before the reset.
On cue, he walked back to the Underground to tell everyone. It didn't take long, and monsters were soon rushing to the surface to behold the sun, which no one had seen for so long. Well, to their memory. Sans…
He still remembered everything. Every reset, every monster's death. Surprisingly, Frisk had not gone genocidal. He was expecting it after all of this time, yet… they never did.
Sans sighed and finally let his smile fall into the first frown he'd had in a long time, even past resets. He couldn't let anyone know about how he truly felt; the only one who knew anything was Toriel, and she had known that small bit since before the resets began. How long ago was that?
Eh, doesn't matter, he thought as he got to Snowden Town, to the house he and Papyrus had moved into so long ago, after the accident…
He shook his head, chasing the thoughts away as he teleported to his monstrosity of a messy room. He just needed to go to sleep and wait till the reset happened. It wasn't even a minute after his head hit the pillow that he fell asleep, murmuring, "papyrus, you want anything?"
When his eyes next opened, he was surprised to see that he was not in his room, but rather in a strange room with two doors. One had a sign over it that said, True Reset, and the other's said, Continue. Frisk and Flowey were both in the room, and Flowey was talking to Frisk.
"Promise that I'll forget everything? That I'll be like… I never met you before?" the flower was asking, looking sad.
Looks like the flower knew about the resets, too. Figures.
Frisk said nothing, and Flowey sighed, saying, "I understand. It's more kindness than I deserve. Just go. I'll be fine."
Frisk held the True Knife in front of them, regarding it with deep thought. Sans drew in a breath. Maybe this would be the time the kid would finally go genocidal? Had Fate brought him here to witness that reset?
Suddenly, Sans was pulled out of his thoughts as the kid raised the True Knife in the air. wait, what? would the kid kill the weed before resetting? that would certainly be a good start to a genocide run, he thought before the kid did something surprising: they destroyed the True Reset door, surprising both him and the weed.
"Y-you destroyed it," Flowey said in shock, solidifying the situation for them all.
The human nodded with a smile. They then said, "Everyone else is happy. Time to keep that happiness forever, right?"
Sans was genuinely surprised. What about the timeline where everything ends? Did they just… eradicate that possibility? He closed his eyes and looked at the timelines again. It was true; there was no reset anywhere in the future.
Frisk seemed to see Sans and smiled before turning to the Continue door and waving back to Flowey and saying, "Bye, Asriel!" before running outside into the sunlight.
Flowey looked after the kid before smiling and saying, "Bye, Frisk." He then went into the ground, probably to go somewhere else.
Sans stared at the ruined True Reset door for five minutes before leaving through the Continue door. It felt… strange, to be honest. Knowing that he did not have to witness the end of all things, knowing that even the possibility of resets was gone?
He had no idea what to do with himself now.
When he left the strange room, Frisk was waiting for him.
"so… no more resets?" he asked, putting back on his signature smile.
"Yup. No more resets," they replied, smiling in turn.
"heh… guess i was wrong, kiddo; looks like we keep this ending."
"You were so sure you wouldn't?" Frisk looked confused, as if this was their plan the whole time.
"well, yeah," he replied, shrugging. "it's never been otherwise before."
"Looks like you were wrong," they said smugly. "Well, whatcha gonna do now? We got no more resets; whatcha gonna do?"
Sans only shrugged. "dunno. i honestly don't think that i ever considered this at all."
Frisk nodded. "Well, I'm gonna go back to Mom. She's got breakfast ready by now. Wanna come with?"
Sans' eyes widened for a moment, then closed as he sighed and shrugged. "sure, kid. i've never got to try tori's cooking in any timeline."
He followed her back to Toriel's house for a hearty breakfast with a heavy heart and mind. What was he meant to do now?
Weeks passed, but Sans still felt out-of-place. Everyone else was settling in well: Toriel was teaching at Frisk's school and had adopted the kid, Undyne and Alphys were in a relationship and settling in with their careers, Asgore was gardening for the city, and Papyrus was… Papyrus. Mettaton had even begun an acting career with the humans.
And Sans? Well, right now he was back in Snowdin Forest, trying to figure out what to do now that there was no reset to worry about.
He walked through, failing to notice the trees changing around him.
