The expanse of the field was endless. If one were to have a birds's eye view, one would've seen flowing waves of golden silk being pushed by the breeze. They would've also seen a slight break in the grass where Alphys, the diminutive yet brilliant monster scientist, was walking. Behind her was her creation Mettaton EX who, with the grass only reaching his hips, towered over her.
"Alphys" the robot groaned "How much longer do we have to walk? My fans must be itching to see me."
"Until we find a way to contact Undyne. We need to find out where she is." Alphys responded. Mettaton pouted crossly and continued to follow Alphys, all the while muttering annoyed grievances under his breath and neglecting to pay attention to where he was going...
And then he fell
Landing face-first in a puddle of what he hoped was mud, Mettaton couldn't hold in his anger any longer and proceed to throw a tantrum.
"What was Alphys thinking getting us lost?!" he growled while slowly getting up "If it was up to me, we would've never gone to that stupid anime convention, but nooooo, she just
HAD to go and just HAD to stay the entire time. Now look where we are! Stranded in the middle of nowhere with no way to reach anyone! I swear to Almighty Asgore I'll..."
he suddenly stopped and, realizing that in the midst of his tantrum he had kicked his foot into something very hard, let out a pierceing cry of pain. Enraged, Mettaton quickly felt around the grass and attempted to throw the first object he could find. A ray of golden light struck the object, drawing his attention toward it. Lowering a gloved hand, he saw what appeared to be a robotic yellow eye encased in a round metal frame. He spent a few inspecting the object before his train of thought was interrupted by the sound of rapidly approaching footsteps. "Mettaton, thank goodness I found you" Alphys exclaimed through exhausted pants. "You wont believe what I just found."
Mettaton snapped out of his trance and turned toward her "And what exactly did you find?" he asked. "While I was looking for you, I stumbled upon an old shed which had a ladder leading to a secret laboratory. It looks like it's been deserted for many years, but if I can power it back up, we can send a message to Undyne. By the way, what's that you're holding?" "Oh this?" he replied "I found it a little while ago. I'm not sure why but it seems...important"
"If you say so, now if you could carry me back there I'd really appreciate it."
"Anything for my Creator" Mettaton said with a smile as he lifted Alphys on to his shoulders. By the time they reached the shed, the sky around them was a curtain of stars. They decided to explore further in the morning and, after making sure Alphys was comfotable and shutting the door to the outside, Mettaton placed the object he had found in her lab coat pocket and powered down for the night.
