Super short flashback...
"WHAT THE FUUUUCKKKKK!?"
- A few moments later -
"Okay, I'm calm now." I take a deep breath as I decide what to do from now on.
Let's see... If I got transported to Undertale, and I'm not 2 dimensional, then I suppose this is probably a different universe where Undertale's real? Or heck, if the AUs in Undertale also exist, them I'm in an entirely different multiverse.
...
"AWESOME!" I raise my hands in the air, if I was a cartoon or anime character then I would have had stars in my eyes.
I can't believe it! I'm like one of those self inserts in fanfics or isekai main characters!
"Huhuhu." I laugh as I am filled with glee and excitement.
I stroke my imaginary beard as I further think about my plans.
I guess from now on I don't have to stay in the shithole I was in, which was my previous world, aka Earth. Well, it wasn't really that bad but it's still pretty boring and shitty you know?
Life back there was basically, do stuff, get some education, finish school and get some piece of paper to make you able to get a job, then you go to work everyday and go to your home then put your obese ass in a chair and play video games or some shit.
Though I miss my parents... oh wait, they died last year.
"Well, shit, I can't find a single reason to go back to my universe." I guess I don't have to go back, huh? Then, what should I do now that I'm here...
I suppose I should try to become strong enough to survive here, and then I'll get out of the underground. Maybe I should break the barrier too? Yeah, I'm gonna do that.
"Well, I'm going to first find out if Frisk is here, and if they have already resetted." I walk forwards, to the ruins.
"Jebus christ, everywhere I look is purple." I comment as I enter the ruins, I then see a bright star, I think it was the save point.
"Can I touch it?" I go towards it as I touch the yellow star.
*The shadow of the ruins looms above, filling you with determination.
*HP fully restored.
"Oh so it works... I guess I can save too?" I say unsurely, a window appears, to my slight surprise.
It asked me if I wanted to save, well I guess I'll choose that. Oh yeah, what's my LV?

"AH!" I grit my teeth as I had a headache at looking at the window, it was filled with glitches.
The headache disappears after a few moments, I look at the window again.
Carter Maldius LV 1
Save Return
"That was... weird." I say after choosing to save, hopefully me being here doesn't fuck up the timeline or whatever it's called.
I walk forwards as I climb up the stairs, I enter to another room.
"The door's already open..." The buttons, or whatever it was on the floor, were already pushed. The level, as well, was also pulled.
It seems like Frisk is here.
"Well, hopefully they're nice..." I continue on my way as I go through the opened door, ignoring the sign at the wall.
"If frisk's already here, I can just go to Toriel's house without doing those puzzle." I say as I continue to the next room.
There's a dummy...
"Let's try this..." I go towards the dummy, I get surprised as the world blackened a little.
*You encountered the dummy
"Oh, so my soul's red as well." I observe my soul, it was red like frisk's soul in the game. I guess my soul trait was also determination?
My soul glowed on my chest, as I looked at the dummy.
...What am I supposed to do now? The options in the game aren't showing up... I guess since it's not a game anymore, you have to do it by yourself?
I don't even know anymore, I'm going to try to spare it.
"I will not hurt you, dummy."
*YOU WON!
*You earned 0 EXP and 0 gold.
I sweatdrop, is sparing going to work like this? Uh, whatever, I'm just going to improvise or something.
I turn and go towards the next room.
"So those are monsters..." I observe the froggits in the room, there were about 2 or so. In the game, you couldn't really see them, they just ambush you like in pokemon.
Well, I'm going to ignore them. I don't really want to waste energy and exhaust myself with froggits. They don't really look that menacing.
As I walk forwards, I then get blocked by spikes.
"..." I look at the side.
"I can just go to the water." I turn right and step on the water. It might make me wet but I don't want to go towards the spikes, I didn't really bother to remember the patters in the game.
As I finished that debacle, I enter the next room.
"This is gonna take some time..."
- Some time later -
Okay, now I'm in front of Toriel's house. It didn't take me that long to get here, it helped when all of the puzzles were already solved. I also avoided the monsters and got me some monster candy.
Oh yeah, I have this stick too. I figured if I had to fight, then I'd need some weapons. I can also use the stick to block attacks, so that's a plus.
On my way here, I didn't meet napstablook, but I didn't really want to meet ghosts so it's fine for me.
"...I'm kinda nervous." Toriel might have been super friendly, but I'm still kinda new to meeting monsters.
I walked up to Toriel's door. I knocked.
...
No answer, I knock again, more loudly this time.
I hear a voice behind the door, "Who is it?" The door opens, to reveal...
Toriel.
Toriel gasped as she saw me.
"Another human!? I wasn't expecting this, humans don't fall down this often..." Toriel looked behind her before looking at me again.
"Come, small one! You will be safe in my house!" Toriel gave me a smile as she took my hand and guided me inside her house.
"I am Toriel, caretaker of the ruins." Toriel introduces herself as she leads me to a hallway in the right.
"Actually, another human like you came down here a while ago. They're sleeping now though... Oh! Would you also like some pie?"
"Ah, that would be great..." I said after a few moments. Toriel was pretty nice, unlike the ones on my previous world.
"Alright young one, since I don't have any other rooms, is it okay for you to share with the other human?"
"That's fine." I said after a second. If Frisk was a girl, it'd be kinda awkward... no wait, even if Frisk was a boy, it will still be awkward.
Oh god, maybe I should have just asked to be in Toriel's room.
Toriel walked back, going to the kitchen.
Well, too late.
I sigh. I guess it's fine, I'm not even 12 years old yet.
I enter through the door, the room was filled with red. Jebus, my eyes hurt just looking at it.
I look at the bed to see Frisk asleep. They looked the same as their appearance in the game, except being more realistic.
...You know, looking at them more, Frisk's kinda cute.
...
Okay, let's not get into that, for all I know Frisk's a boy. So, it'd be really awkward to say that.
I go towards the bed, and sit on it. I don't know the current time but I'm pretty sleepy.
You know what, I'm gonna go sleep. I'll eat the pie later, it's not like I'll be able to eat right away, being newly baked and all that.
I lied on the bed as I moved under the blanket. Making myself comfortable.
"This is... comfy." I yawned as I closed my eyes, being asleep after a few minutes.
- Dreamscape -
I open my eyes, seeing a hallway.
"W-What is this?" The atmosphere felt creepy and... wrong.
I walked forwards, unsure of where I should go.
As I walked by the doors of different colors after what felt like years, I enter a large space. In the front was a massive gate.
The gate was massive, it felt so massive that space seemed to distort once I looked at it.
In the darkness inside the gate, a pair of eyes came into view.
The eyes, it seemed like the manifestation of insanity and chaos.
F̃ͫ̽̓ͨͣ͗̔͏͎̮̼̠ř̷̴̹̥̭ͦ͗͐e̼̦̺͚̦̗̼̽ͯͬͬ̋̆͌̀è̠͇͍̜̳̺̞̪̇͋̔ͪ͗͐͢ ̸ͩ̍̏̚҉̟̥̣̫̤m̵͓̭̙̯̾̅͑͠e͙̖̤̠̝̊̏̄̽̒́͜
The being spoke, and I felt like I was dying millions of times over.
"STOP! PLEASE!" I begged and begged. The entirety of my being felt like it was being destroyed.
Then all became darkness.
- Reality -
I woke up, full of terror.
I slowly sat straight, I'm surprised I'm not breathing heavily, my heart's beating is also normal.
Despite this, just remembering that nightmare, that thing...
...
W-What was it again? I... can't remember.
... Let's just ignore that, I'm probably just stressed out yesterday.
I look at my side, to see Frisk looking at me curiously.
"Um... hi?" I wave at them lamely.
Frisk POV:
- Flashback -
"Make yourself at home!" Toriel said as she walked back. I had a slight smile of my face as I watched Toriel go.
I entered the room, going towards the bed as I then sat on it.
It was Frisk's 17th reset. Last time, Frisk tried to see what would happen if they killed everyone...
Thankfully, Frisk managed to stop and reset, Frisk couldn't take it anymore.
"If you keep going the way you are now... you're gonna have a bad time." Just remembering it sent a chill on Frisk's spine.
After resetting, Frisk swore that they wouldn't do it again, but... their curiosity might get the better of them.
After all, if they resetted, it wouldn't really matter... right?
They'd be all alive again... So, it's fine...
It was this reasoning that they did it. Despite them being their friends.
Frisk covered themselves with the blanket as they closed their eyes. Thinking about last run.
Then they slept.
- Flashback end -
I woke up, stretching my arms, I looked at the side to see-
A human.
...
WHAT!?
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE- Was there a change in the timeline!? How!?
...
... So, there's a change in the timeline... I'm not sure how it happened but...
Frisk unconsciously smiled, This is... interesting.
Frisk was about to wake up the human when the human moved, and slowly sat straight.
The human was male, about the same age as Frisk's. His hair color was black and his eyes were blue. He had a black hoodie and white pants. Frisk observed the boy.
But, the look on his face... I think he had a nightmare.
The boy looked at Frisk as he waved at them.
"Um... hi?" Frisk smiled, as they also waved at them.
"Hello. What's your name?" Frisk asked curiously.
"It's Carter... you?" Frisk pointed their thumb at themselves as they then introduced their names with a smile.
"I'm Frisk, nice to meet you!" The introduction, this time, was genuine. As they said this, Frisk felt like they were getting their old personality back.
"Me too." The boy replied back with his own smile.
"Uh, you want to eat the pie?" Oh yes, the pie!
"Sure." I said with a smile. Carter was kind of shy.
I got up the bed as they picked up they went towards the table. I picked up one of the plate of pie as I gave it to Carter.
"Here!"
"Thanks." Carter said as he took a bite from the pie. "This is pretty good." he commented as he ate it.
"Of course! Mom makes the best pies." I said proudly, Mom's pies were good! Better than anything I've eaten back home.
"You call Toriel mom?" Carter said with a raised eyebrow.
"Yes, she took care of me and even gave me home! She did that to you too right?"
"Yeah but... Oh, whatever. She is pretty nice, unlike the dudes back home." Carter said as he closed his eyes and huffed.
As Carter said this, memories showed up on Frisk's mind.
Frisk's family... they weren't that great.
Before Frisk could delve into their memories any longer, Carter got up the bed as he finished the pie.
"Well, what do you think we should do next?" Carter said as looked at Frisk expectantly.
So, he's asking me... What a nice person! Some people just drag me without giving me a say...
Frisk smiled for a moment before they frowned.
"I think we should ask mom about the exit to the ruins, we can't really stay here forever." Frisk smiled sadly, thinking of the time they killed Toriel.
But, she came back. The RESET made sure of that.
"Yeah, you're right." Carter then touched his chin as he thought of something.
"Hey, maybe we should ask Toriel about here?" Did he mean the Underground? But what should we ask?
Frisk already knew about the Underground but Carter didn't.
I suppose so... I don't really want Carter to know about the RESETs.
"That's fine." I said as I walked up to Carter.
"Oh yeah." Carter snapped his fingers as he had a realization.
"Can we ask Toriel to teach us magic? Monsters use magic, right?"
...
I hadn't thought of that... actually.
"Huh, Carter. You're like, really smart you know?" Maybe his SOUL trait is perseverance?
"Haha, I'm not that smart." Carter said as waved his hand.
"Well, anyway, Let's go to Toriel." Carter said as he gestured me to follow me him, Carter walked outside as I follow with him.
This is going to be interesting.
A/N:
And that's a chapter. Anyway, It's kinda sad to see my fav count is 1...
Though only about 30 people viewed my fic anyway, I guess Undertale's not as active anymore?
So, leave a review guys. Tell me what you think. I'll also try to advertise this in the Undertale Amino.
Because seeing my fanfic getting good response fills me with... DETERMINATION.
And yeah, Frisk hasn't seen Chara yet because they haven't really finished the genocide run, and in this AU, Chara hasn't shown themselves yet.
Also, the being Carter saw in the dreamscape will have a major role in the future.
And with all that said, Goodbye!
