Here's the Omake and the chapter I promised.
Omake 1: How Sans and Ink met.
The colorful skeleton fell into a bush in the underground. They peeked their head out of the bush and looked up. They saw a pair of smol skeletons playing in the snow.
Snowdin is surrounded by forests, so it wasn't so weird that the two of them were playing in the woods. Ink looked at the children and smiled. They were about to introduce themself when a group of older monsters showed up.
Ink decided to watch from the sidelines.
"Well, well, well,... If it ain't the spooky, scary skelebros of that old scarface." The larger bunny mocked.
"L-Leave us alone!" Papyrus snarled.
"ya don't wanna do this." Sans said as his eye sockets became hollow.
"Another eye trick? That shit ain't gonna save ya from a beatdown, runt!" A bear monster taunted.
"what do you want?" Sans asked with his eye sockets still empty.
"My lil brother was playing with your brat a while ago and ya scared him off. And I took that personally." The bear growled.
"ya know, i don't appreciate those insults about me and my family. so if ya leave now, no one will get hurt. especially, you." The older skeleton stated as he glared at the bear monster.
"Tough fuckin' talk for someone with 1 ATK. Think many bones make you tough shit!?" The bunny challenged.
"in fact, i do. and i'm tired of pretending it's not." Sans got up from his sitting place.
"Mama didn't teach ya any manners? Oh, right she left you and that ugly scarface!" The bear taunted.
"That's the last straw, bud." The blue hood growled
At this point, Papyrus started crying. Sans' left eye turned to his brother before going back to the bigger monster. His left eye burned bright blue with magic.
The bear threw a left hook, to which Sans ducked his head back. The bunny went behind Sans and threw a right jab, but all he hit was a wall of bones.
The bunny yelped in pain as the bone wall went straight at him and held him to a tree. The bear sent the skeleton a right swipe and a left downward swipe, but he sidestepped to his left and a blaster blasted the bear in the back, sending him straight at the bunny.
As they grunted and tried to get up, only to get ink poured all over them.
"WHAT THE HELL!?" The bunny yelled.
"Hey boys~!" Ink sang to the two monsters.
The two bullies growled and the bear cursed.
"FUCK YOU, BITCH! THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING!?"
Suddenly, their souls turned blue and were pulled to the ground, soaking them in more ink. The chains were formed from the ink and tied the two monsters together.
The ink from the ground then formed into spikes that covered the whole body of the two bullies, but none touched them. The two of them struggled, only to get poked by ink spikes.
The artist then kneeled in front of the bullies and gave them a wide smile. This isn't a friendly smile or anything, it was a menacing smile of a predator looking down on its prey with its strange, red marks where its pupils were supposed to lie.
Ink gave them a vampiric fang baring smile and caused blood to run cold in their spine. The bear finally worked up the courage to stutter.
"W-What do you want?"
"What I want? What do I want?" The AU protector looked thoughtful as they thought of their answer.
The bully monsters shivered as they went through the sick things that might be in the artistic skeleton's head. Meanwhile, Ink was having a civil war in their mind. The artist had no idea how to answer that question.
'WhatshouldIdo?WhatshouldIdo!? How the heck would I answer that!? Think Ink, think! Uhhhh,... Why was I here again?' The artistic skeleton thought frantically.
"Uhhh,... I want-" Ink stopped in the middle of their track and saw that the bullies had already broken their chains and ran off.
"Darn,... I was going to ask for some chocolate." The artistic skeleton muttered.
They turned around and saw that Papyrus was already gone, leaving only them and Sans.
"Hey! Uhhhh,... My name's Ink. Aren't there like,... two of you." The artist started.
'Way to go, Bonehead.' Ink thought.
"if you're wonderin' where my bro's at, then he's home. way to make a first impression. ya scared 'im off." Sans stated.
"Yeah,... About that,..." The colorful skeleton said as they scratched the back of their head in embarrassment.
"pfffft! just messin' with ya. the name's sans. thanks for the help, btw." The blue hood skeleton chuckled.
"Sorry,... I kinda went aHead of myself and scared your brother, didn't I?" The artist joked.
"yup. try not to make such Colorful entrances next time." The blue skeleton suggested.
"Next time? Wait,... *BLERRRRRG*" The inky protector threw up black ink.
"you okay pal? ya look kinda pale. probably cause you're a skeleton." Sans snarked.
"Heheh,... Sorry. I got a little excited but,... YOU WANT TO SEE ME AGAIN!?" Ink yelled excitedly.
"uhhh,... yea?" The blue hood gave the AU protector a raised eyebrow.
"YEEEEEES! A friend!" The inky protector shouted.
"suuure, pal. whatever you say." Sans rolled his silver irises.
"So,... Same time and location tomorrow?" Asked the inky protector.
"yup." The blue skeleton nodded.
"Here she is, dad! The scary skel!" The voice of Papyrus rang in the distance.
The hooded skeleton sighed as he turned to his new friend,... Only to find a puddle of ink on the ground.
"huh,... creepy." The blue skeleton shrugged as he turned away and walked to Papyrus' direction.
And, from that day, Ink would occasionally pop up to visit Sans and Papyrus, and try to avoid Gaster.
Omake 2: Void Monsters
"I give up." Gaster sighed as he roamed the outside world without care.
He went past many and went through many. No one could hear him or touch him. The void monster went through mountains, rode across seas, saw the brightest of lights and the darkest pits. He saw many rise up to push against darkness, only for them to meet their inevitable demise.
He saw the Grimm Queen and her lackeys fighting an endless war against the wizard with his allies: A moronic scarecrow, a cowardly lion and a heartless tinman. Even the almighty gods of Light and Darkness with powers that are unmatched.
Yet, something felt very wrong.
Were the gods actually the mightiest?
The more he learned, the less significant he felt. But the gods felt less significant as well.
Despite being the mightiest, the brother gods are not the ones in control. They were nothing other than puppets of the creator's fateful strings. Toys for the ones behind the screen.
The Creators are actually the ones that are making many decisions, they are the ones who are held responsible for the destruction, the Genocides, the decisions that they put on Frisk's hand.
But many questions remain,...
Why?
Why would they do this?
Why the bloodshed? Couldn't they have made a happy story? A story where no one is hurt and everyone is filled with joy?
If every decision of mine had already been made for me, then why try anything? What is even the point of this?
"That's the question, isn't it? What's the point?" A voice rang out behind Gaster, causing him to turn around and face it.
In front of him stood a very odd skeleton. He looked like a taller version of Sans. The most noticeable features of him was that his left eye was filled with computer codes that are shifting continuously and his cracking right eye socket contains a glowing purple pupil.
"I think I'll answer that question with another question. What is the point of asking that question?" The skeleton asked in Wingdings.
Gaster hummed in interest as he looked at the other void monster.
"I guess not." The melting skeleton mused.
"Just wait and see. When the void opens again, we'll get out of this mess. Well, you will. I can get out anytime I want." Crash declared.
"Soon I hope." The scarred skeleton sighed.
"yup." The code skeleton answer.
"I have another question. Who are you?" The blob skeleton asked.
Crash just chuckled and gave him a look that said 'really?'
"Isn't it obvious?" The code monster retorted.
"It is now. I now find the future very, very interesting." Gaster chuckled slightly.
Omake 3: The Judge in the underworld.
"jeez, are there any bars in Vale that's not obviously drug trafficking?" Sans said inside of Junior's club.
"Excuse me?" The bartender gave the former skeleton a raised eyebrow.
"c'mon,... the place just screams 'i'm doin' somethin' illegal'. most bars gave out that vibe the moment i stepped into it." The white haired boy ranted.
"You have no proof of that." Junior stated as he glared at the blue hooded summoner.
Sans smirked as he listed out the drug compartments.
"one compartment behind the wine compartment, one under that couch, one under the counter,... wait, the one under the counter was a shotgun. nvm."
"W-What!? No one has ever-! Who are you!?" Junior exclaimed.
"no one ever saw it cuz they aren't professionals. a cop could just walk straight through that door and see it right away." The blue hood complained.
'a decent law enforcer at least. Undyne would definitely notice something like this.' Sans thought.
"Alright smartass, ya caught me. The hell do you want?" Junior growled angrily.
"woah, chill. i only came to have a drink. i checked all the other bars to chill out in but, it seems like none of them are 'chill'. all of them blast crazy music or are drug trafficking." The summoner sighed before continuing to complain.
"man, why can't there be a quiet bar in the city? you would always go to nightclubs to look for info or to do something illegal, but no one would suspect a thing if it's a local pub."
"I see,... So you came to drink?" Junior asked.
"yup. i only ask to not be disturbed while drinking, and i can pay for the other thing." Sans requested.
"And, what would that be?" The club owner asked.
"can we discuss this in the back? too many ears. ya can say it's quite Earie to talk about it Hear. eh, eh?" The white haired boy punned.
Junior only sighed before signaling the blue hood to follow him. The former skeleton shrugged before getting up and walking with him. Sans kept his usual smile as he passed the Malachite twins.
As they went to a round table at the corner of the room, both of them sat down on opposite sides of the table. Then, both of them sat down comfortably on the couch and Junior decided to start the conversation.
"So, what do you need?"
"an id. all i need is an id. the higher ups would find it strange if a student in the most prestigious academy doesn't exist in the system." The white haired summoner explained.
"Done. Anything else?" The club owner asked.
"yeah, actually. what happened to the club anyway?" Sans inquired.
"A blond happened. Not really one of your concerns." The club owner sighed.
"a blond? can you describe her for me? so i can avoid her. or maybe, she can be dealt with." The former skeleton stated.
"*sigh* Fine,... Long blond hair with cowlicks, lilac eyes, pretty tall for a woman, and,... Oh yeah, a huge cleavage. Dressed up like a bimbo." The club owner described before asking.
"Anyone you know?"
The summoner looked thoughtful for a while. There is someone he knew who fit that description, he just hoped it wasn't her.
Meanwhile, Junior shuddered as he looked at Sans's empty eye sockets. The twins readied their weapons and waited to charge if the white haired boy so much as breathed wrong.
"how much property damage did she do? did someone die?" Asked the summoner.
"Did someone die!? Thirteen civilians died in her berserk! Half of my men were in hospital with broken bones! Some of them didn't recover!" Junior ranted.
Sans let out a sigh. He would have to talk to Yang about that later. But currently, he had something else at hand.
"that's rough, buddy." The white haired boy said.
"Tell me about it. It took us forever to clean up the bodies and send my regards to the guards' families." Melanie complained.
"well,... ya should try to be more subtle about being an information booker next time." Sans told him before continuing.
"and another thing, can i work here as a guard? i'm a pretty good judge of a character. kinda my semblance. i can tell you who is dangerous."
"You want to work as a guard." Junior asked incredulously.
"yup. weekend night shift. oh, and if you have any troubling contacts, let me know and i'll see how i'll help." The white haired summoner told the bar owner as he rose from his seat.
"All that needs to be taken care of right now is that blond and I doubt you will be enough." The crime lord complained.
"they all said that, and i always proved them wrong." Sans lowered his voice almost to a growl as he left.
After he left, Junior contemplated what the white haired boy had said.
"Subtle, huh?"
TIMESKIP
That same night, Yang was walking back to her room after a long day of partying and saw the white haired summoner walking into his room. She waved at him,... Only for Sans to turn to her direction so fast that his neck snapped. Yang stopped dead in her tracks.
That was when the blond berserker learned why many bullies, even the ones in higher grades, were actively avoiding her team and people who are associated with them. It wasn't because they were afraid of her, it wasn't because they thought that they were afraid of making a scene with the popular Pyrrha Nikos or because of the team's good performance in combat class.
It was something else.
It was because of Sans' terrifying presence.
That haunting empty eye sockets along with the ear-to-ear grin plastered on his face and his scraggly white hair would go into anyone's nightmare.
It sure did go into her's.
The blond brawler felt shiver down her spine as his smile shifted into a frown.
"H-Hey, Sans,... What's wrong?" The blond asked in an attempt to defuse,... Whatever's making him angry.
The blue hood said nothing, other than gesturing to her to come into his room. Yang leaned her head to her right questionably before blushing.
"Woahwoahwoah,... WOAH! Dude! You ain't gonna do me like that." The brawler blurted out.
The former skeleton looked at her questionably before he sighed and explained.
"Yang, this ain't that. but this is more important." The white haired boy told her.
"Really?" The blond asked skeptically.
"yup." The blue hood stated curtly.
"Okay then,..."
Reluctantly, the blond brawler came into Sans' room and took a seat on his bed. The summoner closed the door and faced his friend.
"So,... What's all that about?" The blond bombshell asked.
The white haired boy sighed heavily as he started.
"Yang,... do you remember the three bears club? ya know, the one with an information booker named Junior?"
"Yeah? Why?" Yang looked at her friend questioningly.
"the night you came and wrecked the club,... well, let's just say,... a lot of people were injured." Sans stated.
"So? They were all criminals. I just did this city a favor. Look, if you're gonna lecture me-"
"civilian casualties, Yang. thirteen civilians in body bags, thirteen broken families. if i count the bodyguards and minor injuries, i would get over fifty people. almost half of the guards' injuries were permanent." The former skeleton cut her off.
The blond's eyes widened in shock. She couldn't believe what she had heard.
Thirteen people.
She killed thirteen people in a crossfire.
Yang covered her mouth in shock. The first thing she did was purely on instinct.
She denied what she had heard.
"B-BULLSHIT! I-I DIDN'T KILL ANYONE! T-That bastard! He must've set me up! When I find that son of a bitch, I'll-"
"kill him?" The white haired summoner finished.
"I,... I-I." Yang was starting to hiccup.
"Yang,..." Sans's left eye flashed with 'Judgement' and his right eye flashed with 'Justice'.
"nothing's safe from my eyes. you might slip pass, but the numbers I'm seeing don't lie. they never do."
She was about to cry.
The blond knew what it's like to lose someone. Now, a bunch of children were sitting at home, wondering when their parents were coming home, only to find out that they wouldn't be coming.
Yang engraved the horror and sorrow in Qrow's and her dad's eyes when she asked when Summer was coming home to the back of her head ever since she was young. And now, she was the reason why they couldn't come home.
Then, tears streamed down the blond's beautiful face as she sobbed. Guilt crept deep into the brawler's head as suffered silently. Ever since Summer passed away, Yang had to learn to control her tears, so she couldn't bring herself to cry loudly.
"ya know,... i'm not really an innocent person either, but my Semblance is 'Judgement'. ironic isn't it? letting the bad guy be the judge." The former skeleton gave out mirthless laughter.
Yang then looked up at the white haired boy, only to see the upside down smile and the shadow of his hood covering his face.
"as a friend, i must ask you not to repeat this action and to never do anything reckless that can endanger people." The judge spoke grimly.
"I swear,... I didn't mean it. I-I will never, EVER, do this again." The blond cried out.
"is that a promise?" Asked the former skeleton.
"On my life." The brawler grimly said.
"so consider this,... strike one." The judge stated.
The blond berserker just stood there quietly, looking down on the floor in anger. She was angry about how uncareful she was at throwing punches and shots.
From that day, Yang swore to herself that she will never be so reckless again.
Now, for the chapter!
Chapter 18: Still in the dark.
Sans came into the true lab very early in the morning. He got into the lab to pass down his judgement to the mad scientist. The former skeleton sighed as he stepped in front of the scientist.
"you are accused of killing many in mountain Glenn. how do you plead?" The white haired boy asked.
"Not guilty." Answered Merlot.
"elaborate." Inquired Sans.
"The disaster at Mountain Glenn was merely an accident. One not done by me." The doctor told him.
"you literally let the Grimm get into the city. how is that not your fault?" The judge questioned.
"They were already there when I got settled in the lab. I usually bring my work with me. My work was a little bit,... Unstable and broke the wall. For the life of me, I've never seen my Grimm acting like that. It was like,... They have a mind of their own." The mad scientist recalled.
"so they broke the defenses and let other Grimm flood the city. ok,... doesn't explain why your LV is so high." Sans stated.
"Ah, I'm getting there. That's when the Grimm Queen reached out to me. That is when my theory was confirmed. The Grimm acted as one mind because they are only,... One mind. That's when I lost my illusion of peace, unity in people.
Humans and faunuses are the same kind in everything but race. Yet, they fought like dogs and cats. That's because the point of their evolution is competition.
To be at the top, even by stepping onto one another." Explained Merlot.
"so ya killed them?" Sans inquired.
"Heavens no. I merely gave them peace and unity like I promised. They should be honored to be living in my creations."
"what gives you the right to be the judge of that? to pass down that judgement onto people?" The hooded boy questioned.
"What gives you, hypocrite?" The mad scientist retorted.
"hypocrite, you say. i must say that's quite Bald of you to ask. but if ya wanna know, it's the eye." The blue jacket boy stated as his left eye glowed bright with 'Judgement'. Then, Sans continued.
"it lets me see straight into your very soul. and it's telling me that you are,..." Sans paused and the world turned into darkness. The judge then reappeared in his skeleton form and stood right in front of the scientist.
"a disgusting murderer." He finished.
In response, the doctor only gave out a mirthless laugh as he told the skeleton.
"You know, in our culture, the grim reaper is described as the hooded skeleton. What are you,my death?" Sarcastically, Merlot asked.
"funny, cuz it's the same in monster culture." Sans answered without any hint of humor in him.
Suddenly, he saw the shadows of some sort of octopus on the ground and immediately ducked. The bladed tentacle only scratched a little bit of the skeleton's bony head.
The blue jacket skeleton created a green domed shield to protect himself from the continuous attack from the octopus Grimm. As a counter, the judge created a Gaster Blaster and blasted the Grimm to ash.
After that, Sans turned around, only to see another one wrapped it's tentacles around Merlot. Instinctively, the skeleton aimed his blaster at the mad scientist.
[ESCAPED]
Sighing, the hooded skeleton walked out of the interrogation room and into Gaster's office. Seeing his son walking into the lab, the void monster asked.
"So, how did it go?"
"Merlot escaped." Sans answered monotonously.
Gaster spat out his coffee.
"Wut?" He asked to see if he was hearing things.
"Merlot got away." The younger skeleton deadpanned.
"Damn it all to hell!" The void skeleton exclaimed.
"*sigh* welp. no soul for you, then. sorry, G. guess we'll just have to wait." The blue jacket skeleton told him.
"Fine. I'll be patient." The older monster nodded before continuing.
"I believe you should take a nap before going back to school."
"yup. seeya doc." Sans waved as he teleported away.
The skeleton's house
Sans teleported into his room, only to find Yang and Blake lying there. The black cat was sleeping on the mattress and the sundragon was on the floor.
'why didn't they just sleep in Paps' bed? isn't it more organized?' The white haired boy questioned.
The blue hood then teleported to the couch, only to find Weiss sleeping in it.
He sighed.
That leaves Ruby in Papyrus's bed. Seriously, for the life of him, he couldn't understand why those girls were so against sleeping in the car bed. It's clean and comfy.
After teleporting into his room, he found Ruby lying on Pap's bed. She was lying on her right side with her right hand under the pillow. Sans let out a quiet chuckle as he laid onto the bed to her left.
The next morning
Ruby woke up and felt something weird wrapping around her hands. She looked to her hands and realized the reason. Someone has pulled her sleeves down to cover her hands and tied a double knot in each sleeve.
Yang pulled one of these stupid pranks before, so it might be her. The red reaper sighed as she got out of bed, only to realise that Sans was lying next to her.
Her annoyance was replaced by absolute embarrassment. Ruby squeaked out a faint 'meep'. That sound was enough to wake Sans up and he immediately got out of bed as if nothing happened.
'Sans, you dense Bonehead.' The little Rose thought.
"heya Ruby." The white haired boy greeted.
"hi,... Sans. Did you,... Sleep with me last night?" The girl asked with uncertainty in her tone.
"hmm? oh, yeah. the couch was taken by Weiss and my room was occupied by Bumblebee." The summoner said nonchalantly.
"Bumble - Oh, you mean Yang and Blake." Ruby realized.
"so, i kinda went to my brother's room to sleep. and, i was too tired to remove you, so i decided to crash in with ya." The monster explained.
"Speaking of crash, where is Crash?" The red Rose asked.
"huh, forgot all 'bout him." The blue jacket monster replied.
"We should go look for him. But first, untie my sleeves!" Yelled the little reaper.
Suddenly, Yang burst into the room.
"You better not be - Oh,... PFFFT!" Yang giggled.
"Yang, this isn't funny! I cannot move my hands!" Ruby exclaimed.
"but you can knot." Sans punned.
"How did you even get into THAT SITUATION!? BWAHAHAHAHA!" The blond laughed loudly.
"Stupid pranks! Stupid puns! Untie me!" Ruby yelled.
"okok,..." The white haired boy chuckled as he untied the knots that were Ruby's sleeves.
Core
Crash sat in the Core room watching the magical sphere shifted from one form to another. The sphere cracked and dark matter trickled out of the sphere.
The skeleton noticed that and stood up, walked towards the sphere and touched his hands on it. The codes in his left eye shifted madly and his left eye socket bled red. The cracks in Crash's right eye socket cracked further to his skull.
The skeleton let go of the sphere and it returned to its original shape with the cracks gone. Then, the AU traveler let out a sigh as he sat down.
'Wonder how much longer I can hold.' He mused.
Back in the skeletons' household.
"uh huh, ok. yeah, i got it." Sans answered through the phone and ended the call.
"he's in the Core room." Sans told the rest of his team.
"Great! We can now go pick him up." Yang stated.
"actually, we don't have to. according to my old man, he is the guardian of the Core. now that he's back, i don't have to guard it anymore." The blue jacket boy stated.
"Are you saying this because you're slacking off?" Weiss asked.
"no,... It's because I want to finish this semester. it seems like the Headmaster forgot all about me." The white haired summoner stated.
"Wait, don't we have a test tomorrow?" Blake asked.
"You're right! And we forgot all about that because of the breach!" Weiss exclaimed.
"Uhh,... To class!" Ruby ordered.
With that Sans teleported all of them to Beacon and they all bolted to class.
The doodle sphere
"Whooo! That was a close fight." Ink exclaimed.
"Yeah,... What the hell are they anyway?" Error asked.
"Negative emotions. They called themselves Lurkers because they lurk at the back of each creator's mind. Luckily, we don't have many negative emotions for them to feed on." The artist told him.
"Good. Cuz I can't stand those guys. Think they are Nightmare's?" The destroyer questioned.
"Yup. They're definitely Nightmare's. That's why they were destroying AUs. It wasn't intentional, but the stress the fans are placing on the creators is sometimes high, so they aimed for perfection and ended up giving up." The artistic skeleton explained.
"Well, when there's negativity, you have to push it away with positivity. I think you know what to do." The glitching skeleton said.
"What?" Ink blurted out.
"Just find Dream, he can help." The AU destroyer deadpanned.
"Oh." Was the reply "Wait! Aren't you gonna help me!?"
"Nope. Destroying is my thing. Helping is Dream's thing. Ask for his help. Later, squid!" With that being said, Error jumped into a portal leading to the Anti-void.
"Welp, time to pay the good ol' friend Dream a visit." Sighing, Ink opened a portal to Dream.
Aaaaaaaand,... Cliffhanger. I noticed that I've been neglecting this story for too long. Mostly because of my lack of motivation to continue, something that most writers get. So, I've decided that I will focus on finishing this story before continuing the other one. See you all next week,... Probably.
Dream and Nightmare are Joku's creations. I own neither of them.
