GASTER – AN UNDERTALE FAN FICTION: CHAPTER 2: PART 2(9): Home not-so-sweet home.
Narrator: sans and papyrus, having destroyed the Foregone kid, are now resuming their road trip to get to the void ruins. They are still taking sans' void-mobile, but it will still be a while before they'd be there…
Gaster: the remote isn't responding. I haven't built it right. Well, that means there's more to do now then there was a while back. I now need to take apart the remote, rebuild it with the correct parts, and then tune it into the right frequency! This could be a while…
Sans: you're joking, right?
Papyrus: that's not his "joking" voice.
Sans: I knew that, I was hoping he was just doing that to annoy us.
W.D. Gaster: sorry boys, he wasn't doing that to annoy you… the remote is done for.
Sans: why does this always happen to me?!
Gaster: every person who enters the void has a year before they fully corrupt into every timeline. I am about 2 months in, and other Gaster is 3 months in. He could try soon to look into the timeline and make sure the machine isn't destroyed
Sans: how long will it be until that's possible?
W.D. Gaster: about another month. You need to be 4 months into the year cycle
Sans: how long has Alphys been here?
Gaster: she's been here 6 months, but doesn't have enough concentration to focus on seeing one timeline
Sans: that's helpful
(suddenly, pineapples)
Sans: what?
Papyrus: on earth?
(loud popping)
Sans: there goes the void-mobile.
Papyrus: now how are we going to get to Gaster?!
Sans: same way we normally do. Run for our lives.
Papyrus: why run for our lives?
Sans: look behind you…
(papyrus turns around and sees massive hoard of void-monsters running at them)
Papyrus: oh. Makes sense.
Sans: stop talking and run!
Gaster: the void is so corrupt; sometimes weird things will occur like the weird pineapples thing just now. Other times, it rains dogs. One time, it rained asgores.
Sans: wait, what?
W.D. Gaster: it's pretty funny when it's not in your way.
Sans: well it's in our way!
Gaster: we'd realised
Papyrus: so, where's Alphys? Haven't heard from her in a while.
Alphys: sorry, I was busy calculating the frequencies for the portal machine.
Sans: didn't we know already that it's UT_198742213201x4dnofrisk24
Alphys: no. That's the timeline code. After running that, you need to add the machine frequency on the end of the timeline code and program that into the remote. While the remote is still being turned on, I decided to work out the timeline code.
Sans: fair enough.
Papyrus: this place looks familiar…
Sans: hang on, it's snowdin!
Papyrus: the void-version of it at least…
Sans: Gaster, are there sans and papyrus in this dimension?
Gaster: no one I saw.
Sans: there's our house!
W.D. Gaster: you mean MY house!
Sans: ours now. We own the legal deed.
W.D. Gaster: and I own the legal right to be dead.
Sans: but do you want to be?
W.D. Gaster: wh-
Gaster: no. He doesn't. Nor do me and Alphys
Sans: he seemed to be about to say "why yes I do actually!"
W.D. Gaster: I was just teasing Gaster, relax
Gaster: ok, ok. I just got bored of waiting in this damn timeline to either go corrupt or be freed. Either way, it'd take an eternity.
Sans: that's deep.
(door creaking)
Gaster: what was that?
Sans: we started opening the door to our house.
Papyrus: wow this place looks desolate.
Sans: when'd you learn to use words like that pap?
Papyrus: the brain-fix room. Must've overdone it.
Sans: so why am I not super-smart?!
Gaster: you never had an injury to repair.
W.D. Gaster: it saw papyrus' brain and mended it until it couldn't do any more to help it.
(suddenly, all the lights went out)
Sans: bro? what's happening?!
Papyrus: why should I know?! Where are you?!
Sans: I don't know
(suddenly, everything went quiet)
(the lights came on)
Sans: bro? what happened? and why are you purple-ish?
Papyrus: bro? what happened? and why are you purple-ish?
Void-Sans: what are you doing bro? why did you recolour yourself? Are you trying to torment me with the reminder that we will never be normal again and that we're stuck like this?
Void-papyrus: are you?
Sans: what are you talking about pap?
Papyrus: sans? Is something wrong
Void-Sans: you're not my papyrus
Void-Papyrus: you're not my sans
(SANS BATTLE START)
Void-Papyrus: what have you done with my brother?!
Sans: what is going on right now?!
Void-Papyrus: ok. You won't tell me what you did with him. That's fine. We'll just have to do things my way until you do then.
- (MISS) -
Void-Papyrus: how did I miss?!
Gaster: I guess I was wrong about a void sans and papyrus existing. Either way sans, I'll protect you until I can break your 1HP lock.
- (X4 BULLSEYE) -
Void-Papyrus lost 100HP
Void-pap: ouch!
Void-sans: (from the next room) Pap! Are you ok?!
Void-Pap: Sans? Yeah. I'm ok. Where are you?
Void-Sans: stuck with an imposter of you here
Void-Pap: same trouble here.
Sans: Papyrus?
Pap: (from the next room) Sans?
Sans: are you ok?
Pap: yeah… I'm fine
(explosion)
Sans: what's going on?
Pap: what do you mean?
Sans: something just exploded!
Pap: yeah. Don't worry about it…
Sans: what was it?
Pap: it was…
Sans: was what?
Pap: Void-you's head.
Sans: so? Why should I care?
Pap: I don't know.
Sans: you just thought I'd be mad due to the fact you were blowing my head off.
Pap: yeah.
(explosion, blinding light)
Pap: sans? You ok?
Sans: yeah. Gaster blaster… Void-edition hit me with it…
Pap: I thought you only had one health?!
Sans: N… Not anymore.
Pap: so, if your health isn't 0, what is it?
Sans: (to Void-Pap) what does a sans say about his HP level?
Void-Pap: why in all of the void should I know, I'm a void-pap!
Sans: It… I… It's
Pap: sans? You ok
Sans: just recovering
Sans: It's over 9000!
(editor's note: sorry, had to put a meme there, this story was beginning to bore me)
(blinding light, loud explosion)
Pap: sans? Was that you or Void-you?
Sans: me. He's dead now.
(short pause)
Sans: what happened to void-me then? He was blasting you a moment ago.
Pap: then I blew his head o—
(loud explosion)
Sans: PAP!
Pap: yeah… he tried again… I reflected it back on him…
(gaster blaster appears on sans' side)
Bang!
Pap: there goes the wall…
Sans: guess this place wasn't as 'home sweet home' as we'd hoped for
Pap: more like home not-so-sweet home…
