Real Determination Chapter 4
-Existence
Michael arrives at the house, sweat pouring from his face. His hair is a mess and his clothes are torn and worn. He wipes the sweat off of his brow as he heads to the door. Opening it, he heads inside and closing it behind him and he paces down the hall towards his room. Inside is the mess that's his room. His chair, sprawled across his stand with his 18th birthday celebration mugs and pictures of his friends and family. Stepping past the broken glass and grabbing the chair he flips it over and places it on the ground in front of the computer, a few glasses on the desk are smashed as Michael pushes them aside. He sits up as he wakes his computer from sleep to see Undertale closed. Michael opens it to see something strange. He didn't have to open a save, because the game was already running and they were in a weird location. It looked like the True Lab but different somehow. Inside are Sans and Frisk, Sans is talking in his usual font about weird things that Michael doesn't understand like.
"Kid, I don't kno-… Wait, this is the lab. It's our lab me and G worked… How?"
Michael contemplates this for a minute… 'G'.
"Wait, does he mean Gaster!" It clicks in Michael's brain like a light switch as Gaster starts speaking. Michael watches the screen as he continues to look behind him and listen for sounds, in case She comes back.
.:Undertale Universe:.
"G…How are you still alive? You fell into the core years ago" Sans shouts, looking at him in shock.
Gaster stands there, his skull was cracked with a crack running down his face towards his eyes. He looks very different to the fake in the doorway. He's taller than Sans, even Papyrus for that matter. He wears a black suit with a white suit shirt underneath and a black tie. On his desk are a pair of glasses so he must wear them for reading.
"I did yes, it was a very…Unpleasant experience to say the least. But I guess it was an experience I had, made me very different you see… After I fell in, my entire body broke apart. Shattering my soul and sending it far and wide, yet the connection between my soul was still existent, and they came slowly back together, although very cracked and worn to say the least. I have theorized many hypothesis, but nothing has been proven accurate, I cannot find out what it is. It frustrates me grea-"
Gaster stops speaking for a second, looking at Sans and exhales.
"Sorry Sans, I get a little carried away about my work…"
"Well nothing has changed then, am I right my old friend?" Sans replies, a big grin on his face.
"You've got a point" Gaster laughs a little looking at Frisk who is standing there, eyes widened with confusion.
"Sans, what did he say?"Frisk asks, looking at Sans.
"Oh yeah… That's right, you can't understand him. He is the man who speaks in hands after all" Sans winks, looking at Gaster
"Hey G, think you could speak in a more…Understandable tongue? For the kid?"
Gaster sighs, coughing and speaks up "Fine… I hate this annoying language…" Gaster murmurs, Frisk now understanding him. Gaster speaks in a professional tone with a lot of articulation, which makes him sound posh, like a true scientist.
"So you're the kid with a lot of determination…Right?" Gaster asks looking at Frisk with a curious look, Frisk politely nods as Sans speaks up.
"You see, we're here today because something strange has happened…"
"Oh? I believe I already know what you're talking about"
"What do you mean G? How could you possibly know what we're talking about when it just happened about 20 or so minutes ago?"
"I can sense rips in the space time continuum, I can also sense anomalies in our universe…" Gaster sits down in his chair, it's worn and old, but still looks sturdy and useable.
"You're here about the little girl right?" Gaster would ask, staring at Sans and Frisk. Their faces painted with a shocked expression.
"I also assume you're here about that strange thing you sensed from that kid over there, correct?" Gaster adds, Sans goes to say something but Gaster cuts him off.
"You see Sans, I know everything about what's going on, and that energy you sensed inside of the kid isn't Chara or an evil version of themselves. The energy is from the same place Chara is right now… And I think we may want to stop her."
.: Real Life :.
"W-What did he just say?" Michael asks himself, shocked and shaken. Not only does Gaster Exist, but he's got some kind of awareness to the outside world. Upon thinking it, Michael isn't really surprised as of late, due to Chara. Michael sits there and contemplates for a second as he tries to move Frisk with the arrow keys but to no avail, Frisk doesn't move as the conversation continues.
"AHHHHH!" a scream can be heard down the street as Michael jumps out of his chair. "No…No, it-it can't be." Michael stutters, his brain going into overdrive as he flips around, desperately trying to find a way to get contact from Sans, Frisk and Gaster, he starts to fiddle around with some code, trying to find a debug mode. "Here!" he murmurs. As he opens it, a weird GUI comes up, he quickly plays around with it, spawning in a random character inside.
"Insert a text box and begin typing" Michael murmurs to himself quickly. The character looks like it has no proper features and is just flashing colours and placeholder boxes. "Done!" Michael shouts, as he begins typing. Unknowing to himself that Chara was just three houses away, attracted to him, pacing down the street slowly with blood and bodies following behind her. "I wonder if he has any….Chocolate" Chara giggles, thinking of the idea of eating this world's chocolate and what it would taste like.
.: Undertale Universe :.
Frisk grabs onto San's hoodie quickly, her face filled with fear.
"What is it kid?" Sans asks, looking down at Frisk.
"W-What is t-that?" Frisk points behind Gaster, to reveal a circular orb that probably represents a humanoid figure in the 5% mark. Different colours flash as the humanoid stands there. Sans opens his eye to reveal a blue eye as he runs towards the Orb.
"I don't know how you got here, but you're going to have a bad time." Sans says, Frisk shouting "Stop!" at him. Sans comes to a halt and looks at him confused when the orb speaks.
"He-ll-o… I ne-ed your h-elp!" The orb says in a weird and robotic tone, the voice stops and starts with static following behind.
"Who the hell is this guy?"
"I-I come from a w-world t-hat Chara h-has t-ak-en contr-ol of"
"Wait. How does he know about Chara!" Frisk shouts, eyes widen.
"I-I neeed he-lp s-toping her"
"Hmmmm, this is indeed rather strange, but I believe this is who I was talking about before. The one Frisk had surrounding him"
"That's him?"
"I'd hope so, it seems the most logical, now we need to find a way to br-"
"H-HEL-P ME…SH-EE'S COMING, HE—ELP ME PLE-ASE"
The voice cuts out as the orb falls over, lying there without saying a word.
"Okay Sans, grab me the device on the table over there?" Sans nods, teleporting over to it, grabbing it then teleporting back to Gaster, he takes it and starts fiddling around with it, he presses a few buttons on It then walks over to the wall, there stands two weird metal poles, he presses a few more buttons on the control sensor as a blue aura flows out from the gate.
"I've personally never done inter-universe travel, so we're going to need a lot of power, just one monster soul will not cut it." Gaster speaks up, looking at the portal then at Frisk. I'm sorry you can't help, noticing that Frisk doesn't have a soul.
"Okay, I'd hate to have to do this" Gaster motions over to his big iron table, picking up several coloured vials, he starts lobbing them at the portal frames, the portal starts to spin and turn faster and faster as the blue aura starts turning a more florescent blue.
"Ready Sans… We need to place all our power into this to warp them across"
"I hear you G…" Sans replies, his hands raised and blue forming all around him, Their bodies strain and start to hurt as suddenly a blue light is exploded from the Portal, shutting it off.
"Oh damn…It was w-" Sans shuts up as he turns around, lying there in the same place the Orb lied, was a teenage human who was covered in sweat and a bit of blood. The Trio's eyes widen as they look at the laying human.
"Y-You're human?" Sans asks, starting at him. Michael stares at him not thinking straight after being dragged in.
"Kid, I recommend you answer me now… Ah screw it, goodbye k-"
"Please don't hurt me!" The weird human would shout, staring at them.
"I know you…" Frisk murmurs, walking closer.
"H-How?" the man replies, looking into his eyes.
"Because, you're in my dreams everywhere I go, I see you, I must have some connection to you, I must do. Don't you agree, Michael?"
