Connected to the Different [ Glitchtale Fanfiction ]

Secrets of the past

- Frisk.... How shall I put it...?- I turned towards the other human. The monsters were ahead of us, while the two of us stayed behind.

- What is it?- He raised his eyebrow rather skeptically.

- Your sudden power change. How did that happen?- I looked at him, observing his expression. His eyes nearly pierced through me.

- Why are you asking about things that are none of your concern?- He lowered his gaze back onto the road ahead of us. I was taken aback by his sudden coldness.

- Would you please let us care about you? You've been distant. Too distant for your own good.- I sighed, looking at his hand, which was still glitching.

- It's better if you don't interfere with what I'm doing.- He growled.

- Frisk, you don't have the audacity to be upset. Both of us lost a member of our family since that thing started killing.- I tried to remain calm instead of letting my grudges control me.

- Enough of this topic. Let us arrive home first.- He suggested, and I reluctantly agreed. When we reached the old shack, I felt something breaking.

- We have to hurry home! The barrier on the house was broken!- I declared, increasing the pacing of my walk. All of us were tired, and Neither Gaster nor I could teleport because of obvious reasons. As we arrived, the door was missing from its frame and we saw that Jessica was stabbed by one of the blobs while Undyne struggled to throw her spear. Asgore quickly raised his trident and threw it, destroying the blob.

- Miss Toriel, please, treat her wounds....- I looked at the old queen while Gaster talked with Asgore.

- Papyrus, Lukas, please follow me.- The scientist gestured, and we did exactly that. We went back into the underground to the royal laboratory. The underground lab was much larger, and many years older. Sans was still unconscious and Papy still had the energy to carry him, but he didn't let me fix his body armor. Gaster's been trying for minutes to open the inner lab's door, but it seemed like it won't budge. The code was missing.

- It's okay if you don't remember the password... It's probably just stress messing with your memory.- Papyrus tried to reassure him after the next try of remembering the code.

- Something's not right... He didn't seem like someone who remembers this place. We've been wandering around until we found this door with a symbol combination lock.

- Wh.....- Gaster sighed, taking in a big breath. He closed his eyes, then they snapped open. His hand reached for a wall, but i reached him faster. He grabbed onto my shoulder, looking mortified. His breathing was shaky, but he quickly helped himself up from my shoulder.

- Doctor, don't overexert yourself. The code isn't...- I tried to help, but the in the next second, there was a loud beep noise. He had put in the code and ordered papyrus to put Sans onto the bed. Something wasn't right.

- Alright.... The system's online...- I switched on the computer. It was an old model, but Gaster's tech wasn't difficult to use.

- Now, we just wait for the results. Depending on his condition, we'll take action.- Gaster added as he walked behind me. The machine was analyzing Sans and what was going on with him. I had no knowledge of what was going on, so I had to depend on the doctor.

- Hey, Papy, could you bring me a pen and a notebook? I'll translate this.- I turned to him, seeing that Gaster was busy fixing something.

- They're in the left side room at the bottom of the hallway.- Gaster spoke from the machine, not turning towards us. He happily saluted, leaving to get the things. When I glanced back onto the screen, the results were out. It asked me if I wanted to display them, and I pressed yes. Gaster most likely finished fixing what he wanted as he stood behind me, putting his hand on my shoulder.
