Hi, welcome to my second chapter in the story.
Honestly, I've had a lot of fun writing this and seeing where it would go.
On with the story!

Chapter 2
Asgore
Sans had the terryfying sensation that he was
Falling extremely quickly...
Falling...
Falling...
Falling...
Falling...
DOOF!
Sans quickly gets up as he surveys the location him, Papyrus and Gaster seem to have entered.
It was a small cave-looking thing, with a pathway directly in front of him, and a strange glowing thing in the end of the passageway before spreading out into a different room which Sans could not tell what was inside.
"Are you alright?" Sans said, preoccupied as he helps Papyrus up.
"That was fun!" Papyrus gushed, as he suddenly starts to run around the cavern in circles.
Well he seems alright, Sans thought, with almost no surprise in spite of himself, before feeling a presence rise behind him, and whipped around to look behind him.
It was Gaster.
He seemed quite shaken, but otherwise he looked fine.
"Hey, Serif, you look like we fell into the Monsters' home." Gaster said, quite amused at his son's expression.
"Wouldn't that be the Underground? This fits the descriptions in my history books at school" Sans responded rather nervously.
Papyrus was running in circles the whole time.
Sans, about to add something to his proclamation, noticed a faint yellow glow in the distance.
"Can you see that?" Sans asked as he pointed towards the light with a shaking arm.
Gaster and Papyrus look obliviously at the location he was pointing towards.
"I see a dark room!" Papyrus exclaims, himself pointing towards the room obviously.
Sans cautiously walks over to the light and touches it.
Full with mystery and possibly blind relatives... it fills you with
DETERMINATION.
Sans dubiously withdrew his arm from the light.
"Use the force, Sans." Papyrus calls sarcastically.
Sans scoffs and walks back to Papyrus and Gaster.
"You boys think we should go on?" Gaster asks the two.
Papyrus and Sans nod almost in sync, and the three walk towards the dark room, which strangely grew with light as they got closer.
There seemed to be various beings inside the cavernous place, including some frog-looking things, a strange deer with objects on its unusually long antlers, and an enormous goat man with purple robes and a crown.
Papyrus rushed over, Sans and Gaster following reluclantly.
"Take us to your leader!" Papyrus screeched to the goat man.
The man looked stupefied, and responded after some hesitation.
"I am he." He said with a glare to the child.
Papyrus stares dimly towards the goat king.
"Are you humans?" The king asked politely to Gaster.
"Well, we're vessels made of cells joining together to create us, with specific-"
"That's a yes, then." The king interrupted Gaster, before motioning some beings with lances.
Sans felt something extremely sharp go through him, the three humans letting out a cry before Sans felt his world fade to black.
——————————
"Use the force, Sans." Papyrus calls sarcastically.
Sans scoffs and walks back to Papyrus and Gaster.
He felt a looming sense of deja vu. Then, he realized that this exact event happened about ten minutes ago.
"You guys sure we should go over there? It may be dangerous." Sans said in a small voice, feeling that it was best to not bring up the subject.
Sans slowly walks over, holding Papyrus back from running over and ruining their chances to get friendly with the monsters.
"Hello, we are humans that are lost and need help" Sans said with the voice that would give the most sympathy to the monsters.
"Yes- Um. We could try to assist you while we're here?" Gaster continued, realizing Sans' plan.
The king stroked his chin.
"Well, I suppose you could contribute. But first, we will keep you somewhere safe, in case you are really hostile." The king said after some hesitation.
He motioned the guards at his sides, and they led the humans away to a small cell, Sans bouncing in excitement inside at his success.
When they arrived, the three of them stayed silent, thinking about their own things. Sans was thinking of the possibilities of being able to die over and over again while always starting at where he had touched the glowing thing, Gaster thinking of diplomatic things to say to the monsters later, and Papyrus was thinking of his favorite TV show, which had to do with action figures coming to life.
Sans noticed another of the glowing things beside him, and touched it.
At the endless possibilities within your newfound powers, you are filled with DETERNINATION.
Sans, Gaster and Papyrus sighed together in newfound patience.
——————————
The cell door suddenly slammed open, waking the three humans up from their stupor.
"We have been monitoring you closely, and it seems that you mean us no harm." The king said authoritavely. He seemed ready for a proper introduction.
"Howdy. I'm Asgore, the King of Monsters," Asgore introduced himself.
Gaster got up and shook Asgore's hand warmly. "Hi. I'm W. D. Gaster." Gaster introduced himself.
"What does W. D. Stand for?" Asgore asked curiously.
"Ah," Gaster said, "it stands for WingDings. My parents really loved fonts." He stopped, staring off into space before continuing. "They were quite nerdy, I guess."
"Alright. Who are these two?" Asgore questioned, staring down at the children with a softer expression.
"That's Sans Serif, and that's Papyrus." Gaster responded, the two of them giving a small wave when Gaster mentioned their names.
"I thought we couldn't say our names in front of strangers." Papyrus hissed at Gaster audibly, Gaster grinning at him.
"He's not a stranger anymore," he said as Asgore suddenly turned to the children for conversation.
"How are you enjoying the Underground?" Asgore asked kindly, but a bit akwardly to Sans.
"Well, you put us in a cage after you k-" Sans stopped, because of Gaster giving him a stare that clearly said to be polite, and Sans remembering that Asgore hadn't really killed them, at least in this... thread of time.
Asgore stopped awkwardly, before Sans embarrasedly corrected himself. "Actually, apart from that, it's been pretty good." Being shut in a cage for a long time was basically my only experience here.
Asgore slowly turns to Papyrus. "How are you doing?" He asked in a slightly more childish voice.
"I bounced and raced!" Papyrus giggles as he rocks on the little seat in the cell they were in.
"Alrighty. We'll see what we can do for accommodations." Asgore said to Gaster as he departs from the cell.
Gaster nods and waits for Asgore to leave before turning to the kids.
"Fascinating creatures. They are rather primitive, as a few good kicks at these bars would break them," he said looking with amusement at the bars put in place.
"Their 'monitoring' is pretty much a hole in the wall," he continued motioning at an innocent dent in the wall.
Sans and Papyrus stare closely at the dent, which was actually a small hole with something staring at them.
"HoI" it said strangely and derpily. Sans kept staring at it bemusedly.
"I'm TeMmIe!!" It continued for no apparent reason. Sans kept staring at it.
Temmie dissapeared before Sans or Papyrus could ask it anything. Gaster chuckled to himself. "You'd think they would hire someone competent for the job," he said.
Only now had Sans realized that his life would never be the same.
