Entry 32
Blackness.
I'm in a void. Again.
Frisk is gone.
Ugh, it's hopeless.
From one void to another. This is the third one.
I can feel myself fading. Losing my DETERMINATION.
…...no.
No. No! NO! I won't give up hope! I won't die!
Not here! I WON'T DIE!
There has to be a way. Stay determined.
Entry 33
Another door...should I enter?
Guess that I don't really have a choice...
…...
I'll do it.
Entry 34
The light blinds me. At least it's not blackness again. I think...I'm inside a room now.
It's a room in Waterfall, with a strange kind of door for the area covering the exit. Now that I mention it, it seems like a door you would have seen on a house in Snowdin. Like the door to the skelebro house. Huh...that seems kind of eerily familiar. Maybe I saw this room in a dream sometime or something. I'll need to check with Frisk - if I find him.
I should get going. This room doesn't seem right.
Entry 35
I don't remember that room being here at all.
If anywhere, I was pretty sure that it would be at the quiet area around the garbage dump, not right next to Sans' first outpost in this part of the Underground. Oh well.
Speaking of Sans, he wasn't at any of his posts today. Everyone else in Waterfall was fine, but just without Sans.
…...
Something must be up. Sans, in ANY timeline (besides those where personalities are swapped) will ALWAYS be at his posts and easy to find, unless something really bad is going on in that timeline OR if something's up with the RESETS/timelines themselves. And that means REALLY bad. He doesn't even think a problem like Asriel getting six souls is something he needs to prevent, or at least when Frisk is there.
So WHAT is going on here?
Entry 36
Investigation: Find Sans (and Frisk) and figure out what's going on
Crime Scene: None/Unknown
Suspects: Flowey, Other Frisk, Other Chara
Clues: Something to do with timelines probably
I start with Snowdin Forest. The Ruins are closed, but there is no answer when I knock. No dust though. That rules out a Genocide route or completed pacifist.
Next I look through the Forest. Everyone is alive. Not No Mercy. I look closer, and notice Gyftrot's antlers are undecorated. Either this timeline's Frisk has already been here, or my Frisk has. Or this timeline is in the past.
I see that the puzzles have been done, and not different from the ones I know. Since Papyrus always recalibrates his puzzles, this can't be the past.
Next I head to Snowdin Town. I get no answers, until I get to the skeleton brothers' house. Sans would have been sure to talk to Papyrus.
I knock on the door, and as expected, the tall pile of bones opens the door. As I look a little like Frisk, he mistakes me for him.
Papyrus said that, "SANS IS NOT HERE AT THE MOMENT. HE SAID THAT HE HAD TO DO SOME WORK SOMEWHERE IN HOTLAND OR THE CAPITAL. AS IF HE EVER WORKS!" Aha! The capital...but that sounds like a Genocide run, but that's not possible.
I was about to put my detective skills away, when I saw a hidden shed in the back of the house. Usually it would be locked, but not today, for some reason.
I stepped inside to behold a workshop, seemingly...Sans'? Nothing seemed to be of interest to my investigation, until I saw it. A large and suspicious machine. It was labled "Void Bringer".
And it was active.
Now I'm standing here, wondering what this machine does. Hmm...
Entry 37
Uh oh.
I found a remote, and curiously (stupidly) aimed it at the strange machine. I didn't expect it to do anything (I did), but I pressed the one blue button that was on it.
It did something.
The machine started making loud and generally not good noises that you don't want to hear from a machine that complicated. A screen on the machine read: "Looking for organic life". It's still saying that.
I stepped back, but it just kept searching.
I'm waiting for something to happen, but
OH NO
Entry 38
I did it!
Frisk is back!
The machine started shaking violently as the screen said "Found". I turned to run, and the shed filled with a bright glow. The next thing I knew, Frisk had stepped out of a black portal of sorts, and the machine stopped. I don't know what Papyrus could be thinking after he heard all that, but Frisk and I got out of the workshop to not be so suspicious.
Oh, Frisk need to write what happened to him while he was in the void and separated from me while I was doing my investigation, because, well, I suck at explaining things in my own words.
So, the next entry is by Frisk.
Entry Frisk (39 I think because I don't want to mess up Chara's stuff)
Ha ha, so um Chara wants me to write in this, because she, um, can't explain things? I don't know, but I probably shouldn't be writing "um", haha!
So we were in that horrible void together, and the door of light was here, and it was then or never.
So we went in and we were blinded, then I couldn't see anything. I think because we were going through separatly, we ended up in different parts of the void. I think.
Then, I was pretty scared. When I realised that I didn't know where Chara was, I was like, "Um, Chara? Chara? Where are you? Are you here? This better not be a joke. 'Cause that would be pretty rude!" But then there wasn't an answer, so I shouted, "Chara! Chara! Where are you?!"
But nobody came. It was so scary! Because I was in a dark void, but this time, alone!
I felt like I had let my newest friend down.
I was there for what seemed like hours! I called for help now and then, but the only answer was the ringing of the black void.
But I still didn't lose my DETERMINATION! I would NOT give up to a black space of nothingness! And right when I thought that, a white glow like just came out of nowhere! And I thought that it was taking me to another void! So I was like, "NOOOOOOOOOOO!" and the whiteness got bigger until I was blinded!
Then, the next thing I knew, I could feel ground! I almost cried tears of joy
But then I saw Chara! I was so happy, I ran and gave her a big hug! And she smiled and hugged me back! I'll bet she doesn't want to admit that she's opening up to being nice instead of being a demon. But!
We're going to be BEST friends! I just know it!
So, that's like what happened to me. Like when Chara wasn't with me.
Thanks for letting me write here, Chara!
Entry 40
Hey! I'm not embarrased to admit I'm opening! I, um, just...I, uh, wanted...you to write it! Yeah, that! Totally!
Probably!
So something pretty funny happened as we were leaving to Waterfall. Papyrus was outside, and this was his reaction.
"OH HELLO LITTLE HUMA – WHAT? THERE IS ANOTHER LITTLE HUMAN? TWO LITTLE HUMANS! WOWIE! THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE! SO FRISK – WAIT...ARE YOU FRISK? OR ARE THEY FRISK? ARE YOU BOTH FRISK? I'M CONFUSED!" We were laughing by now, and Frisk said that he was Frisk and I was not, and my name was Chara. So Papyrus said, "OH! SO SONE OF YOU IS NAMED CHARA! BUT ARE YOU CHARA? OR ARE YOU FRISK? OH I DON'T CARE! I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ARE TWO OF YOU! HM? OH, MY PHONE IS RINGING! ...WHAT? OH! HELLO, FRISK!...WAIT! WHO IS FRISK?!"
We started laughing again. It was just absolutely hilarious! I'm laughing just thinking about it now!
"OH? OK, GOODBYE, FRISK!" I can't believe how much that Frisk would be confused. Then Papyrus looked at us. "OH, HUMANS? I HEARD SOME LOUD NOISES EARLIER AND..." Oh no. Did he know about the machine? "TELL SANS HIS SNORING WAS WAY TOO LOUD!"
In between fits of laughter, I told the skeleton that I would. We said goodbye, and continued on. Oh, I can't WAIT for when we have the other Frisk with us!
Entry 41
Investigation: Find Sans and Other Frisk
Suspects: Flowey, Sans, Other Frisk, Other Chara
Scene: Hotland/Capital?
Area: Waterfall
We start off at Sans' sentry post, looking for answers. We tap the echo flower.
"We need to talk, Frisk. C'mon, I know a shortcut."
Sans was using different dialoge here. Something was up, but about what?
We journey through Waterfall, seeing that Frisk has already been here as well. Nothing seems at all any different, until we get to one of the patches of echo flowers. What usually is a nice conversation about wishes is now self-talking, presumably by Chara.
"How PREDICTABLE. Searching around...in vain."
"But they don't realize they've already fallen into my trap."
"As if they would EVER escape me."
"I already know where they are. Waterfall." Uh oh.
"They'll just go straight to the elevators to MTT and the CORE." Okay, change of plans. GT Chara was right, but not anymore. That's why you never talk to yourself out loud.
"Then I'll be waiting for them, because..."
"They're just SO PREDICTABLE."
We had hit a certain clue. We would have to go through Hotland the long way.
The rest of Waterfall was normal.
Now we enter Hotland.
Getting closer.
Entry 42
Investigation: Find out what GT Chara did/is going to do
Suspects: Flowey, GT Chara
Crime Scene: Capital
Area: Hotland
We enter Hotland and I glance at the nearby elevators.
They look like a trap.
Heading to the lab, we-
WHOA.
I close the journal and put it in my inventory with the red pen I was writing with. The royal laboratory Alphys uses is protruding black threads. This isn't good. I hope Alphys is okay...
Frisk and I walk inside, grim expressions on our faces. As I trace the threads of...whatever that black stuff is, I do a quick search around the main place. No dust. Good. Now down the elevator we go.
"WARNING! ELEVATOR LOSING POWER!" A voice urgently warns. Great. This always happens. I sigh, and the elevator finishes its decsent. I black out.
I immediately wake up and find myself trapped in the corner of the DETERMINATION Extraction Room by the same dark matter that extruded from the entrance to the lab. I see Frisk trapped in the same manner in another corner across the area.
"Frisk!" I call. He wakes up, worried.
"Chara! What's going on?!"
"I don't know, but let's think of a way out of this together, okay?"
I struggle to move, but nothing happened. Maybe I could LOAD a SAVE file...but I feel like I need to save the inhabitants of this timeline.
Then I see something bad.
"*DT Extraction Machine – Status: Active"
"How PREDICTABLE."
We turn and, of course, see GlitchTale Chara next to the hugh machine wielding a very real knife. Ready to strike.
"But we heard your voice!" I protest. "We heard you in those echo flowers and avoided your trap!"
"Those flowers are fun, y'know?"
I realize my stupidity.
"They were the trap."
I am so stupid! "We can LOAD if we die, Chara! We still have control over the timeline!" I shout.
"That kind of makes it hard to get rid of us," Frisk adds.
"If you RESET, this world will erase itself. There are already too many glitches because of it now," GT Chara smiles – if you can call it that. "And don't worry, I'm not going to kill you. I have a much better use for you two. Why do you think this machine is on?"
I know why.
Helpless, I am thrown with Frisk into the DT extraction machine. Inside, there is blackness. We push with our SOULs to escape the wrath of the contraption. But to no avail. I can't move. Frisk and I are powerless as our DETERMINATION is drained from our souls themselves.
When we can move again, we are free. But Glitch Chara is gone with our DETERMINATION.
How am I so stupid?
Because of me, we are completely powerless.
We've lost.
What am I going to do?
Wait...maybe Sans could help. It's worth a shot.
Let's go.
We're almost to the capital now. We're finally going to get some answers. And maybe find Sans and Frisk. Hopefully GlitchTale Chara hasn't done anything too horrible yet.
Then we see it. Sans, Frisk, and...Gaster? They stand there, as Sans uses his magic to grab the six human souls from their casing and bring them to...Flowey?!
Frisk and I run towards the throne room, sprinting as we try to prevent a disaster from happening. Pausing, the four figures turn to see what in the world the commotion is. Sans' eyes glow with a burning passion when he sees me, but then he sees Frisk.
He looks at him, then he looks at the Frisk standing next to him, then back at my Frisk. His, mine, his, mine, his, mine. He gives up and shrugs, eyes returning to normal.
As we reach the gang, Sans interupts, "okay, what is even going on here? there are two of frisk, and there is another chara who is not evil."
I try my best to explain, saying, "Well, we're from a different timeline where we got to the surface already, and I recently turned good. Plus, your Chara has stolen our DETERMINATION from us, so we're down for the count. So what is even going on here?"
"well, chara wants to destroy everything, what did you expect?" Sans blantly states. "so we're trying to stop her from doing that."
"BY GIVING FLOWEY THE SOULS?!"
"gaster and i can fend for ourselves, but this flower weakling needs these to be useful. plus he's on our side."
"So are we going to bring them down or what?"
"hehe...sounds like a plan, kiddo."
I pump my fist in the air. "Then let's get butt-kicking!
IIIIIt's time for...ASK CHARA!
Corpse Party at Freddy's: Question: When the Dreemurrs took you in, did you like Toriel or Asgore more?
Chara: Weellll...I think I liked Toriel more. She was always soft and kind to me...and she always baked the BEST pies!
Guest: So, if you have a physical body, what would you do other than killing and creep on frisk like a yandere?
Chara: Well...hehehe...I never really thought about that...hehehe...I think I might be tempted to have some "fun" with Frisk. You know what I mean, right?
...TICKLING!
Well thank you guys! Be sure to leave more questions! And I'll see you later!
