Gaster's group walked into the elevator. "So the next person likes to hang out around L2, so we should check there first," Gri explained.

Gaster nodded and pressed the button.

"So Dr. Gaster, you don't like me hugging you, yet you'll let a small child, who has almost no history with you, hug your leg," Gilda stated.

Gaster sighed. "Gilda, you scared her," he explained.

Gilda's face frowned. "I scared her," she scoffed. "This is why you don't take little kids with you. Why did you take her?"

"Sans put me on a probation-like thing. I have to take someone with me and Chara wanted to go."

Chara nodded. "I'm going to do a good deed, even if you freak me out."

Gilda seemed slightly offended. "I freak you out?"

"Your face isn't on your face! You talk about holding a piece of Gaster. You seem really unstable as well," Chara explained bluntly. "Despite that though, I'll try to help you."

The elevator dinged and opened. Beyond the door was a grey head sticking out of the ground. "There's Gennadius," Gri stated. Everyone walked out of the elevator and to the monster.

Gennadius looked at the group and smiled. "You're alive Dr. Gaster."

Gaster smiled. "Yes. Me and Chara have come to help everyone who fell into the Core."

Gennadius' gaze shifted to Chara. "Chara? You mean the adoptive daughter of the queen and king?"

Chara nodded. "Yup."

"I thought you looked familiar. Thank you Chara, for being one of the kindest humans I've ever met."

Chara chuckled. "If you say so." She stared quizzically at the monster's lower body. "So how're we gonna move you? I mean, you don't seem to have legs."

He looked down at himself. "Yes. That might be a problem," he stated. "I've never really moved from this spot." He stared at the ground. He took a short hop forward.

"Well, I guess that'll work," Chara stated. "So where's this kid?"

"Goner Kid, you mean," Gennadius asked.

Gri nodded. "She normally hangs out in Waterfall."

Chara stopped. "We gotta walk all the way to Waterfall?"

Gaster shook his head. "Not necessarily. I do have means of travel." He held out his hand and created a grey door from nowhere.

Gilda looked at the door, amazed. "Good going Gaster! Now we'll get there even faster!"

Gaster looked at Gilda, unamused. "Please do not start that rhyming chain you always start." He looked back at the followers. "After you."

The followers entered the door one at a time. Gilda hesitantly entered, looking back to make sure Gaster was following her. She smiled as Gaster and Chara entered and closed the door behind them.

"So where are we going to find this child," Gaster asked.

"She should be around that room with the plaques of our history. The one with the drawing. She's on the other side of that bridge," Gri explained. He took the lead. "I'm bad at explaining things. Just follow me."

Gaster chuckled. "Thank you. I know Waterfall, but not very well."

"Well, you did get us close. She's just past this side of the bridge."

Chara moved to the front. She pointed to a figure in the distance, staring at the water. "I think I see her!" She ran ahead of everyone to meet the kid.

"Another kid," she asked. Goner Kid seemed sad.

Chara was startled by her sudden voice. "Uh… yeah. My name's Chara. What's your name."

The kid turned to face Chara. She looked almost exactly like Monster Kid. "It doesn't matter anymore." She stared at the pointed stones on the ceiling. "Have you ever thought about a world, where everything is the same, except you don't exist?"

Chara shook her head. "But… I know you've had to go through that. Do you know Monster Kid, by any chance."

Goner Kid seemed slightly surprised. "Yes, but that doesn't matter now." She laughed sadly and stared at the ground. "What if in this world, everything existed perfectly without you? The thought scares me…"

Chara gave her a pat on the back and smiled. "Come on. Don't be like that. As my friend Frisk would say," Chara began. She put a neutral expression on her face. "Everyone deserves a happy ending." Her face reverted to a smile. "We're here to save you and the others."

"You are?" She shook her head. "No. It's okay. Please, just forget about me."

Chara frowned. "Look, this isn't a decision. You either come with us peacefully, or we're going to effectively kidnap you," she stated as blunt as she could.

Goner Kid's eyes widened. "W-What?"

"We're not giving up on you, so come on."

Goner Kid stared at Chara with shock. "You care that much for someone you don't know?"

"It's the right thing to do, right? So come on now." Chara grabbed the collar of Goner Kid's shirt and began to drag her towards the group. "I found her. Careful, she's being all depressed," Chara warned. "She seemed really adamant about staying there."

Gri nodded. "Yeah. Hey Goner Kid, we're going home, back to all of our families. Won't that be exciting?"

"But how would that work?"

Gilda wrapped her arm around Gaster."Well, if I know Dr. Gaster as well as I do, I know he's found a way to save us from this state. Look at him! He's back into the world of the monsters."

"Gilda!" Gaster flinched and moved away quickly. "How many times must I say that my heart belongs to another?"

Gilda pouted. "But Gaster, Calibri is dead. I was as sad as you were, but I've moved on. I'd say it's time for you to as well."

Gaster ignored Gilda and walked up to Goner Kid. He knelt down to her level. "Well, I see the resemblance to you and Monster Kid. Are you siblings."

Goner Kid shuffled her feet. "Yeah. We are."

"Don't you want to see him again?"

Goner Kid nodded. "I want to be able to talk to him again. I want him to remember me."

Gaster smiled. "And he will. But you have to come with us. I promise that you'll be restored to your former self. I used to be just like you, only I wasn't able to reach out to others, like you are. If it is possible to help me, then it is certainly possible to pull you out of wherever you ended up." He created a grey door and turned the knob. Gaster scooped the child in his arms and held her. He walked through the door with the other monsters. "Gri, can you get the door for me," he called as he moved his way to a machine.

"Yessir!" Gri ran towards the grey door and closed it. He ran back to the group.

"Okay Chara, this is where your help will come in handy, so listen carefully." He set Goner Kid down. "First, I need you to make sure everything is plugged in." Chara raised an eyebrow. "People like unplugging my stuff for some reason."

Chara sighed and began to check the outlets. She gave the scientist a thumbs up. "Everything's plugged in."

Gaster sighed. "That's a relief. Now to the hard part, extracting the monsters." He walked over to a large grey machine with a tube in the center. He began to press a series of buttons. "Let's see, that value isn't right, so I need to raise that." He glanced at a display with a series of numbers. "Okay, this process could take a while, but I have the set-up for it. You see, for each pocket in the space-time continuum, there is a corresponding number. We need to find the pocket you are currently trapped in and bring you here. I'll go in order from when I found you. Gri, you're up first." Gaster invited Gri to a small platform inside the machine. Gaster looked towards Chara. "Chara, name a number between two and one-hundred."

"Uh… I dunno… fifty-six?"

Gaster began to hit several more buttons. He flipped a large red switch and stared at the capsule. "It doesn't seem like it did anything. Try a different number."

"Wait, you had to do this before, right? What was your number?"

Gaster's eyes widened. "Chara! You may be onto something!" He pressed a couple of buttons and flipped a switch. Once he did, Gaster's body began to become unstable. He screamed as he saw his body begin to melt into a blob once again.

Goner Kid quickly raced to the switch and flipped it once again. "Yo, are you okay," she asked, her voice filled with concern.

"Heh…" Gaster clutched his head and smiled at the kid. "Let's not try that number again." He walked to a small table and grabbed a pen and a notebook. He listed a couple of numbers. "Still, this makes for good notes." He looked at Chara and sighed. "Don't tell Sans."

Chara gave a thumbs up again. "You got it Doc. But seriously, are you okay? You were kinda… melty… sorta like cheese."

"Yes. I am fine. Are you worried about me?"

Chara pouted and turned away. "Blame Frisk and Asriel, I say."

Gaster chuckled and made his way back to the machine. "I won't tell. Okay, so perhaps a number close to sixty-six will work."

"How about sixty-two," Gri suggested.

Gaster nodded. "I'll try it." He pressed the same buttons a couple of times and pulled the lever. Fog filled the machine as gears and cogs began to sound. "It worked!" The fog soon cleared. The former grey follower was now a shade of light-blue with red markings on his chest. He grinned as he stepped out. The other followers marveled at the achievement.

"Whoa… that's some cool science stuff," Chara admitted.

"Next up, Gilda." Gilda raced into the machine and stood there with a grin on the face in her hand. "What number would you suggest?"

Gilda pondered for a moment. "How about number sixty-one?"

Gaster nodded. He was slightly relieved that she didn't try to make a romantic action towards him with the number. He pressed a single button and flipped the switch. Once again, fog filled the machine. Once it cleared, a yellow monster with yellow fur walked out. Her face was attached to her body,and she held a piece of black cloth in her hand.

Gilda spun around and grinned. "Finally! I don't have to carry my face around with me!"

"Yes. And we're all glad for that. Okay, next up is Gennadius."

Gennadius hopped into the machine. "I'll be so glad to have my legs back. Seeing as it seemed to a numerical order, try sixty-three."

Gaster nodded and pressed a button. The machine created fog once again. Once the fog cleared, a yellow dinosaur-like monster stepped out. He stared at his legs and smiled. "Hopping like that got tiresome."

Gaster looked to Goner Kid. "Okay, it's your turn now."

Goner Kid shyly walked inside the machine. She gave a tiny smile.

"I'm going to guess number sixty-five for this one. Does that sound fine?"

Goner Kid shrugged. "I don't know."

Gaster pressed a button and flipped the switch. Nothing happened, however. He frowned. "Huh. Perhaps since you fell in at a later time, it's a larger number. What number would you suggest?"

"Uh… maybe eighty?"

Gaster nodded and pressed several buttons. He flipped the switch and grinned as fog entered the machine. Once it cleared, a small yellow dinosaur walked out. Her tail was curled around her. She looked like Monster Kid, only without the spikes on the back of her head and she was a lighter shade of yellow. She wore a bow on her head.

Gaster smiled at Goner Kid. "See, now you can be with your family."

Tears were starting to form in her eyes. She hugged the scientist with her tail. "I was so scared." She tightened her hold on his leg. "Everyone didn't seem to even notice me, not even my own brother. Everyone lived their lives, and didn't even know I was gone!"

Gaster picked Goner Kid up. "That must've been torturous for you to go through, but it's all over now. He hugged the child and set her down. He created a door from the air and turned to his assistances. "I am glad that I could help you. Can you find your houses without my assistance," Gaster asked.

Gri, Gilda, and Gennadius nodded. "We'll call you if we need anything," Gri stated.

Gaster smiled. "And if you can call if you want to talk. I ask that you be respectful of my wishes, however." He looked directly at Gilda. "No flirting with me."

"Tch. Fine."

Gaster turned the knob and waved to the followers. He took Goner Kid by the tail and walked through the door. Chara closed it as she left.


Verdana yawned and stretched her body. She leapt up the stairs in an attempt to find a bed to sleep in. She felt herself get scooped up by someone. "Hey," she shouted. Verdana looked up to see Asriel staring down at her.

"Uh… sorry about this. I saw you trying to get up the stairs and wanted to help."

"It's fine, just a little shocking to suddenly be picked up."

Asriel smiled and walked with Verdana up the stairs. He opened the first door and entered. He set the cat on the bed.

Verdana stretched and curled up in a ball. She heard the door click and sighed. "I've got a home now, after searching for years, I can finally grow attached to someone… I hope." She closed her eyes and drifted to sleep.


There was pitch-black darkness.

"Where are we going? I can't see a thing with your hands covering my eyes! Oof!" The camera's microphone was bumped. "Ow. Okay, so I know where the wall is. If you're going to blind someone, at least take off your cloak."

"Oh! Sorry dear. We're almost there!"

"I've been walking so long that it seems like I'm in Snowdin. I wouldn't be surprised if I were to step in snow at any moment."

"Oh come on now, do you think I'd lead you all the way there?"

"Perhaps."

"No! Just a little further honey."

"Alright. Tell me when to stop."

"Okay, stop! Now tell me who the best wife is."

There was a gasp. "H-How did you?"

"Don't worry about that. So, do you like it?"

"Like it? I love it. Thank you so much Cali!"

"It's not a problem, Wingdings."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

A moment passed with no sound. "Er… Cali, were you recording my reaction?"

"Yeah?"

"You left the lense cap on."

"Ughh! I knew there was something I forgot to do. Aw…"

"I could re enact what I did."

"No. It wouldn't be genuine. Oh well. At least we have the sound."

"Yup. At least there's that."

"I miss her," Gaster muttered, staring at the screen. He had tears around his eyes. He took the tape out and set it down.. "We had such great memories together, and now…" He placed a new VHS tape inside.


And done! Okay, that took a long time, mostly because I was debating on carrying Gennadius in a wheelbarrow, and I was trying to figure out how to get one there. It wouldn't work, however. No voices this time, but there is a flashback with a recording... which is sorta like a flashback...

I'm glad to see people trying to figure this all out. ;)

Anyway, bye guys!
