Okay, here's the next chapter of the Scholatale Arc, which is, like I said, going to be significantly shorter than the Underfell Arc. Also, someone random, (if you read the review) asked why did Liam kill Mettaton, technically, Mettaton isn't dead because he's shown to lose his limbs and not die before, it's just that in the Underfell AU, his blueprints are significantly different, and I may have made it seem like he died, but he's not. Not really. (Not important for future chapters...) Anyways, hope you enjoy this chapter!

"What do you mean there's no L666?" I stood in front of a very shocked Alphys. School had just ended and I wanted to ask the hyperintelligent lizard monster if she knew where it was.

"It's just that, there is no room L666, not to mention how spooky that room sounds…" Alphys bit her lower lip. "But there's never been an L666, and there probably never will…"

"Room L666? What's that?" Undyne popped out of nowhere, her bag slung over her shoulder. "Never heard of it personally, but it sounds dangerous."

"It's something I read in a book, but Alphys says it doesn't exist," I said. "How am I supposed to find a room that doesn't exist?"

"Hey guys! Wait up!" Asriel and Frisk ran up from behind and slowed, gasping for breath.

"Where were you guys?" asked Alphys. "I thought something bad had happened…"

"I bet they were making out on the roof or something," said Undyne casually. As if it were scripted, both Frisk and Asriel's faces turned a bright shade of red. Undyne laughed loudly and noogied the two classmates.

"Can we get back to L666? Please?" I asked, feeling irritated at my inability to find Gaster.

"L666? What's that?" asked Asriel, interested. I groaned.

"Just answer the question! Do you know where a room L666 is?!" I could've killed them all if I wanted to, but I was purposely holding back. They may be useless, but they could provide something when the time came.

"L666? Isn't that a shop in town?" asked Frisk, cocking her head to the side. "Remember, Azzy? We passed by it, but it looked like it was closed."

"Tell me where it is!" I yelled at Frisk, grabbing her.

"Woah, hey, chill out!" said Undyne, roughly pulling me off. "Why do you want to know so badly anyways?"

"he's looking for someone." Without any forewarning, Sans was standing right in front of us. "someone i gave up looking for a long time ago…" Sans glared at me with intense hatred before reverting to his normal expression.

"Really? Who?" Alphys leaned in close.

"it's not like that alphys," said Sans before her imagination ran off. "he's someone who disappeared a while back…"

"No… You can't be talking about… him?" Alphys stepped back and shivered. "I'm getting chills from just thinking about him."

"Uh, sorry to burst you guys' moment, but, us three have no idea what you're talking about," said Undyne, gesturing at herself, Asriel, and Frisk.

"You don't know?" asked Alphys. "About what happened to Gas-"

"it's nothing, okay? nothing important." Sans cut Alphys off and gave me one last look before walking away.

"Hmm, Sans isn't normally like that…" commented Asriel. "What did you do?"

"Like he said, it's not important, I just need to know where L666 is, just, please." I looked Frisk in the eye.

"If you really need to know…" Frisk sighed. "I can take you there…" The group fell silent.

"F-Frisk! Are you sure you want to go there?!" Alphys was now shaking in fear. "Places like that are closed for a reason!"

"It's no big deal," said Frisk, brushing Alphys' concerns aside. "I'm just worried what Liam's looking for…"

"When can we go?" I asked.

"Not today, that's for sure," said Asriel. "It's far too late to go into a store like that." Using my newfound knowledge from Sans' book and some of the older psychology books that Gaster had, I deduced that Asriel was feeling jealousy, another emotion I didn't understand. He was already annoyed that I stayed at Frisk's house since she was the only other human.

"That's fine with me," I said. "When can you take me, Frisk?"

"Um, well, exams are this week, and then I have piano lessons on Friday…" Frisk thought about it for a second. "I suppose I can only take you on Saturday…" Asriel let out an audible sigh of relief.

"That'll have to do for now," I said, making myself a mental note to remind

Frisk when the time came.

"Can we go now?" asked Undyne, sensing that the conversation was over now. And so, we began walking to our respective houses, which ask happened to be in the same neighborhood. Small world, eh?

Tuesday. Another completely fruitless and boring day. The only difference being Sans not talking to me at all and Papyrus was much more silent. Classes taught things that I had already learned and teachers some in dull, colorless, monotone voices. Nothing worth noting happened.

Wednesday. The day of the exams, something I didn't bother studying for. Alphys had an anxiety attack and had to go to the nurse for a while. Undyne hadn't studied either, but she planned on guessing on most of the questions. Frisk, being the perfect student she was, studied diligently and was determined to get a good grade. Strangely enough, Papyrus wasn't present at all, and Sans didn't say anything about it. Asriel moaned at his desk.

"Don't worry, Asriel, it'll be fine!" said Frisk, trying to instill confidence into the poor goat monster.

"I didn't have any time to study, and now I'll fail and then..." Asriel began sobbing hopelessly.

"Okay class, I'm handing out the answer sheet now," announced the teacher, walking around, passing out the perfectly printed sheets of paper. We each accepted the sheet, either out of excitement, terror, or just obligation.

"Now I'm handing out the exam, do not open it until everyone has one." The teacher came around again, passing out booklets containing the questions to the exam. I looked around the classroom and tried to use Sans book to my advantage. Frisk had her same determined look and looked anxious to start the test. Undyne seemed completely at ease with an expression that was relaxed, yet didn't seem to know what she was doing. She kept glancing over at Alphys, whose legs were shaking nervously. I knew that Alphys knew the answers to the test, yet she was still worried that she would fail. Sans, on the other hand, was... asleep at his desk and Mettaton was combing his hair with a brush and a tiny mirror. He was far too narcissistic to care about school.

"You may begin... Now!" Loud flipping of paper echoed through the classroom for a second, before fading away. I looked through the booklet and sighed. Honestly speaking, this test was far too easy. If I could dodge shrapnel from an explosion by judging each of their trajectories, when I was thirteen, then most other tests were going to be easy, especially the exam I was taking on math.

"I'm done!" I called out in a bored manner, not even 30 minutes since the exam had started. Heads turned and students gasped.

"Y-You're already done? But you have the entire class period!" protested the teacher. I simply raised an eyebrow and relaxed. Reluctantly, the teacher to my exam and began looking over it. I now had an entire hour to just think. Think about how I was going to fight Gaster, should I find him here. First things first, I reviewed my abilities in contrast to his. He had Gaster blasters, psychoanalysis, crazy fast speed, could only be hurt by specialized weapons, and near-omniscience. On the other hand, I had magic absorption, psychoanalysis, a transdimensional knife, Crosstail, and a machete. It was clear who was going to win.

"Um... I think I'm done..." said Alphys, raising a trembling hand. There was a soft murmuring from the class as they realized that two people had already finished within thirty minutes.

"..." The teacher grumbled under her breath and accepted Alphys' quiz. The class quieted down again and no noise was present except for the sound of scratching pencils. I resumed my thoughts. Gaster should be winning, except I had already killed him twice. Clearly, something was working for me. My thoughts drifted towards the reason why Gaster would use the SEU. Using the power of souls, it could shatter entire timelines. I couldn't understand how that would've benefited Gaster in any way.

"Okay class, time's up," called the teacher. "Hand in your answer sheet and the test booklet." A great deal of grumbling later, all the tests and answer sheets were turned in and the bell rang loudly.

"Oh god… I don't think I did any of it right," said Asriel, almost frozen with fear. "Especially not that part about the projectiles, that was terrible…"

"D-Don't lose faith, Asriel!" encouraged Alphys. "You just need to believe!"

"Ahahahahaha!" Undyne strode right up, laughing insanely. "That was probably the most BS I've ever put into one test!"

"Really, Undyne, you should at least try," scolded Frisk. "I won't let you, or any of my friends, fail because you didn't try."

"Ah, Frisk, you big pile of heartfelt mush, I could just about give you a hug, but I think I would crush all your bones…" Undyne gave Frisk a smirk but nodded. "But you're probably right, next time, I'll only use 80% BS!" Undyne ran off before Frisk could continue to scold her, prompting Alphys to run after her.

"I feel terrible, Frisk…" said Asriel with a pitiful look on his face. Frisk laughed lightly and gave Asriel a hug.

"Don't worry, I'm sure you did fine." I watched with interest as the two began to converse about conversation topics. Together, we continued on through the next exam, English. Our English teacher passed out the answer sheets and another test booklet. Over and over until school was out. Two exams, one day, and a whole lot of free time. I kept mulling over Gaster's reasons the entire day, but I couldn't place it anywhere. I went home that day with a lot on my mind.

Thursday. Another two exams today. Again, Papyrus wasn't there. This day started with P.E. however, instead of an "actual" class. We started off the class with a healthy game of dodgeball.

"FIRE!" The opposing team's captain screamed out, beginning the onslaught of balls. Originally, I had never been able to dodge many of the balls, due to the sheer amount. I can dodge shrapnel because it follows a specific pattern, but the mind is a very confusing thing that changes almost constantly, even while throwing a dodgeball. However, with the knowledge that Sans' book provided, just by looking at someone's face, I could tell where exactly were they going to throw.

"AAAAGGGGHHH!" Students were hit by balls left and right while I remained completely unharmed.

"Keep dodging!" yelled Asriel, encouraging his teammates, despite the fact that only him, Frisk, and me were the only ones left on our team.

"Great, now it's just us, against... 12 of them," I said, counting the members on the opposing team. They held all the balls.

"Here we go again," warned Frisk as the team captain hollered again, his team throwing a wall of balls towards us. Unsurprisingly, we remained completely intact.

"I'm starting to get bored," I announced, stepping aside just as a ball reached me. Asriel and Frisk were being massive pacifists, not even trying to pick up any of the balls. I decided to go full genocide and began to pick up balls. Using the opposing team's facial expressions, personality, and their dominant leg, I managed to hit each of them with one ball each, though some of them managed to catch the ball, eliminating me from the game. I walked over to the wall where everyone else was sitting, watching as Frisk and Asriel faced off against three others.

"Dude, where'd you learn to do that?" asked one of my classmates, a bunny monster by the name of Aureus.

"Can't tell you, it's a trade secret." P.E. ended without any side winning, with neither side being able to eliminate the others. The next class we had was science class, where our next exam resided. More test booklets and answer sheets were passed out and another timer was set.

"I'm done!" I said, waving my paper through the air after 30 minutes. The teacher, having heard of my speed, took my paper and I dozed off again. I was rudely awakened by Frisk after an hour had passed, signaling the end of class. I dragged myself into the next class, history. I hate history. It's boring. Another exam, more time spent asleep. Last class of the day, Human Knowledge. Self-explanatory.

Friday. Last day of the week, exam free, as well as Papyrus free. Most of the classes were spent wasted, either unproductively, or asleep. Nothing of note happened except Frisk's piano lesson, which left the piano teacher extremely pleased with Frisk's progress.

Saturday…

There you have it, a random account of half of a week in school, as well as random powering up of the main character... for no real reason, of course... heh heh... whatever. Man, I really suck at this whole realistic fiction genre... I gotta practice or something... Anyways, the next chapter is going to have more action (I hope) than this one, but you'll have to see whenever I post that chapter, ciao!
