Before the story starts, remember that I use names to distinguish characters and their own universe. UT for Undertale, US for Underswap and SS for Storyshift.

e.g SSChara- Chara from the Storyshift universe.

Undertale @ Toby Fox

Underswap @ PopcornPr1nce

Storyshift @ ut-storyshift (Tumblr) VoltraTheLively

Note: In this chapter, I'll be using nicknames. For example, UT for Undertale, US for Underswap and SS for Storyshift. This is to distinguish similar characters from their seperate universes to avoid confusion.

Also, the reason why some like Undyne don't have that nickname yet is due to her being the only copy: She'll start having nicknames once she meets her alternate self.

Astonished faces met his gaze and he shrugged. "Ok...how would we know? For all you know, this might just be a dream and we might just about forget it by the morning." UTSans decided to punch SSChara on the shoulder. "Ow! What was that for?""welp, you asked me to prove it to you.l that you're not dreaming. so, believe me now?" Chara grumbled and folded her arms as she took a glance at the short skeleton. UTSans seemed friendly enough, but she could sense that people will definitely have a bad time if they get on his bad side.

"If I can predict correctly...the kid will reset. Chara'll do this again for their sick enjoyment but Frisk...I hope she doesn't do it for our sakes." USPapyrus looked aggravated "What're you talking bout'? Chara's been nothin' but helpin' me in my universe." UTSans shrugged as SSChara coughed. "well, since your universe is called Underswap, it probably means that character roles are swapped.""D'You mean..."

"yeah." UTSans interrupted. "your warrior will be Alphys and scientist called Undyne. in mine, it's the other way round." They sat there for a while comparing their differences, and then SSChara mentioned, "Ok, so now that we're here, what are we doing here? Like, why isn't Undyne or Alphys here instead meeting their alternate universe selfs?"

Sans shrugged. "to be truthful, I don't know. what I can tell you for certain is that the kid killed everyone here-""Wait, that's what happened in my universe too!" USPapyrus exclaimed. It didn't take long for SSChara to connect the dots. "So, the human-""Went on ta' genocide route, met us in the hall""and we were ready to give them a bad time" UTSans finished.

"So...what do we do now?" UTSans shrugged, unsure of what might happen. Just then, the soul shards of the kids started reforming, as it began to come dark. "Looks like the kid is resetting, nice to meet you guys then.""you too kiddo". The world turned black.

SSChara and USPapyrus landed in a very bare bed. They took stock of their surroundings, looking around. A self-sustaining...tornado of...Socks and Paper?! was churning around. They looked and saw simple tattered walls with a cheap alarm clock at the side.

"whoa!" UTSans could only yell as he fell onto the two. They lay, a heaping mess on the bed. "We...we're not back at our universe yet?" SSChara shakily replied. She felt like she was going to break down: Not seeing her parents, or her friends or her brother Asriel... As if it could not get any worse, UTSans's brother Papyrus chose to walk into the room with Undyne next to him.

"HEY BROTHER! HAVE YOU-"Papyrus stopped and gaped at the unusual sight of his brother, A HUMAN! and...A DOPPELGANGER?! "Hey, sup der' me." USPapyrus lazily answered. It took him a moment to register the fact that UTPapyrus was there and when he did, he jumped out of the bed and tried to run out of the door. He did not see Undyne as he crashed right into her. USPapyrus looked up at the fuming fish lady, whose temper was almost as big as her burning hatred against Hotlands. "Doc, why're you wearing these armor?" He questioned. Undyne shoved him aside, just determined to get into the room. The others were not of any matter now, but her priority was the human who sat there on the bed. She couldn't believe the nerve of Sans, not just to sleep on duty but to also harbour a human! "Sans, I'll deal with you later. Human, you dare come into this place?! I'll kill you!" What Undyne wasn't prepared for, however, was SSChara's eyes to go into glowing narrow slits, as she brought up two knives made of hell energy. She kept in a still stance, waiting for Undyne's next move. Undyne felt a seed of hesitation inside her. Unlike the previous humans she had fought, this one was a Fighter, a trained and experienced killer. This human was capable of killing if need be.

"Undyne, calm down! there's no need to do this." UTSans' usually laid back attitude was now one of urgency, and Undyne decided to relax a bit. She knew that UTSans knows more than he wants to admit and she was ready to at least allow him to talk her out of battle.

They sat awkwardly around the table in MTT-Resort. UTSans had teleported there with all of them, much to Undyne's surprise. She didn't know UTSans could teleport multiple people at once; sure, she saw UTSans teleport, but never with two other people. It never occurred to her that not all is as it seems with UTSans. But now, the situation at hand. "Okay, punk! You were gonna tell me something, so go on and don't sit there like some dum-" UTSans' eyes shot at her threatheningly, with just enough time for Undyne to realise that she almost said a vulgarity. UTSans sighed as the bad word was not said in front of his brother. "so, you might not believe this, but this human is not from here. not the 'not from underground', but more of 'not in this universe at all'. her name is Chara, which is also the name of the fallen human in iur universe. but she's from another universe where her and other monsters co-exist peacefully." Undyne looked incredulously at SSChara. "So, you're telling me that this human is not from here?! Why should I believe you?! You could be making up a story as far as I could tell!" UTSans anticipated this question and replied with a curt nod:" look no further than UTPapyrus' doppelganger, then." USPapyrus stared ahead at his counterpart and simply gave a lazy shake of the head. "Yup, believe it or not, I'm Papyrus from another universe." Despite the severity of the situation, Undyne could not surpress her excitement. Does that mean she had another alternate self?! : I know what ye' thinking. You're dat' nerd from my universe." No wonder the name, Undyne thought, Underswap! I bet his personality was like UTSans! "Does that mean you like spaghetti?" UTPapyrus asked in a childish gleeful tone. "Yeah, still eat dat' somtime.""Awesome!" UTPapyrus exclaimed. USPapyrus then said "Ya know what they say bout' ol' col' spaghetti."

"Those who forget the past-a"

"are doomed to reheat it."

The trio grinned at each other as they continued making puns.

"I ain't alfredo you"

"Making puns is part of my daily rotini"

"if i had a penne for every time i heard that..."

UTPapyrus groaned and placed his hands onto his head, and Undyne was also fuming at the annoying puns. SSChara felt a music around them. Even though this was her first time in the Undertalr universe, she sensed the name: The song paralleled her own, "it's raining somewhere else."

--I--

In the Storyshift universe.

--I--

It was raining somewhere else.

Asriel looked at the block of stone in front of him. The tombstone was drenched by the water, but thankfully the writing remained. The tombstone itself bore the words.

"My Beloved Sister Chara.

Taken from us one day

Without warning

Without goodbye."
