"You figure something out yet? The Player is doing another Genocide attempt."

"Go away. You are making it hard to focus." You had figured it out. The secret to entering and exiting the Void was in this section of code in the Universe. You just needed to figure out how to correctly change it without causing a world destroying glitch.

"We should have taken that coding class, huh?"

"To be honest, I'm not so sure it would have helped. I am pretty sure the world is being held together by at least two completely different coding languages interacting with one another somehow. I am not even sure which ones they are either."

"I'm going to make a stab in the dark and say one is probably Delphi seeing as that is what the game was coded in."

"How do you even remember that?"

The other you just shrugged before hopping into a seat next to you. "Here, let me take over for a bit. You need a break."

"Fine I'll-" You're cut off as the feeling of a full reset in the timeline hits you once again. "-go check on the timeline again. This is getting ridiculous."

"Take a break after."

"No promises."


The Player was in the Void. THE PLAYER WAS IN THE VOID.

They had found and opened the door in Waterfall that you had literally just made to escape through and walked straight into the now single empty room.

Empty, except for the two versions of you.

You spun to look at your constant companion for the past few years only to find yourself alone with the approaching monster in sheep's clothing. One that was about to touch you.

NOPE. NOPE. NOPE. Teleport.

You tumble through the Void and back out again before you even think about how stupid of an idea that this could be. You stumble free into the middle of a large snow drift.

You don't even try to free yourself before the crazy giggles set in. 'I'm out! Holy shit, I can do stuff for real again.'

"Like see our sons."

'Like see our-' Your train of thought is completely destroyed by the other you's comment from inside your own head. A sudden painful realization starts to set in. '...You weren't ever really… there were you?'

"As many people have said, Sanity is overrated."

'Says the figment of my imagination. Still you weren't wrong about me missing Sans and Papyrus. Perhaps it is time to go look for them..."


Notes:

The mystery as to what is going on with the second Gaster is finally reveled. Yep, poor Gaster did go a bit crazy without realizing it. Italics has been our normal Gaster and Bold is the slight split personality he has devolved. I will be referring to them as Gaster and Dings respectively until further notice. In case your wondering, no, Dings is not going to just go away on his own magically. Gaster is probably going to be talking to himself from this point on. At least now he is aware of the fact he sounds crazy when he does it out loud. He is thankfully not that far gone.

Also I fixed a major problem from the last chapter. It turns out that my attempted to copy and paste the doc from my Google Drive didn't go 100% correctly and an either chunk of dialogue got cut down to just the letter F. It should be fixed now. Sorry it took me so long to catch it.
