UnderVanquish

Chapter 4. - Settling in. - Page 29.

(Where Horror is at.)

His eye-sockets black, the signal from his belt stops going through. "SANS, WHAT WAS THAT!? DID I HEAR SOMETHING ABOUT A MEAT FACTORY?"

The bear monster says with an excited crazed expression. "Yeeeeeeaaaaaah sans, tell us about it!"

Horror thinks to himself. *a meat factory huh? sounds nice but at what cost, how much of it is going to endanger my friends here? mad gaster, you are an insane idiot! gaster,temmie the things you said before agreeing with any of this has me a little bitter...heh, but at least you agreed on with it. I will give temmie a gift later as a personal thank you for his kind words.*

he chuckled quietly to himself briefly.

"SANS, WHAT IS THE FACTORY ABOUT?"

Horror walks up to his brother. "Oh, gaster,mad gaster,temmie and dust are going to go on au raids, getting food for everyone here. this factory was created for all of you. It will provide food, but the supplies will be humans from other universes."

A dog monster says. "DID YOU HUMANS!??" Horror notices the dog monster now looking at Chara and Aliza. The monster licked their teeth a few times.

Horror growled at them. "look, these two are not for eating alright?"

The monster laughed. "Heh and why not?"

Horror grinned. "Both adopted by Gaster himself."

Horror heard Aliza whisper to Chara. "What did sans just say?"

Chara replied quietly. "I am just as confused as you are, because gaster didn't adopt you.."

Horrortale-Papyrus walks up to Aliza. "THAT SOUNDS AMAZING! ADOPTED BY THIS GASTER! THAT WOULD MEAN THE PRINCE OF MONSTERS IS NOW YOUR BROTHER! WHAT AN HONOR!"

Aliza thinking to herself. *wait a minute...won't this confuse them? what about my lie on sans being my dad!?*


Dogaressa walks over to Aliza, she smiles kindly. "You both have nothing to worry about from me, in fact. I won't let any of these guys hurt you two. I know for fact Aliza here isn't Sans's daughter."

They all start chattering about it.

Horror sighed. "yeah i remember that..."

Chara feeling uneasy. "So none of you will try to eat us?"

She shakes her head sideways. "As long as we have that factory and any food supplied to us from your father and friends, i am sure things will be fine. Nobody going bonkers and chasing after you two..." Closing her eyes for a moment, reopening them with a serious yet horrifying expression. "If anyone tries to harm you both, i'll cut them in half!"

Horror chuckled. "I would also leave a mark..."

Chara runs up to Horror and hugs him at the side, he gently gets Chara off. "kid, i'm not the hugging type..."

Chara chuckled. "liar, you hold and hug my mom!"

"SANS, CAN WE SEE THE TINY TORIEL NOW?"

Horror nods. "Yeah, ill go look for gaster and get her. Protect these two while im gone."

Aliza says to dogaressa. "you knew about my fake daughter thing?"

Dogaressa nods. "did you forget?"

Aliza sighed. "Oh yeah it was towards undyne."

Horror grumbled, he leaves the main room.

(Where Gaster and Temmie are at.)

30 minutes later.

Gaster gets out of the shower room holding Toriel in her dark purple pajamas, she yawns. (the soulless tiny one :3)
He hears a teleportation noise to see Horror. "Oh hey horror, i was just coming to see you..."

Horror's eye-sockets are black, he coldly responds to him.

"gaster, you better hope this meat factory's development was worth it, i mean it sounds great but if it gets my friends in danger...I will end it personally myself. I heard we have a reputation now? enemies?

I am not exactly too fond of that idea...bad enough we have that shadow creature and Undyne in my universe, not to mention Tori's problems and the whole omniverse dying business.

tell me, do you find my friends and I revolting? because i heard everything from your belt..."

Gaster sighs. "Horror, i didn't mean anything bad towards you and your friends and if i did say anything offensive, i am sorry. I was just upset at Mad Gaster and words just slipped from my mouth. I would never intentionally be awful towards anyone here."

Horror's eye-sockets lite back up, he spoke in a calmer tone. "I believe you, heh not everyday someone says sorry to me and leaves it at that! alright, i mean a meat factory was offered to my friends and i on a silver platter. If we get enemies, we could always end them and have em as a food dish!"

Gaster feeling disgusted, he kindly replied. "Anything for my friends."

A growling noise is heard, coming from toriel.

Horror says to Gaster with his eye-sockets black again. "she is still starving g, we need to do something about that..."

Gaster replied. "Well we have a fragment here, maybe them being about each other will help..."

Horror shaking his head sideways. "or do harm one, who knows with her but we have to do something! I can't stand by and watch her starve to death!"

Horror turns Gaster blue. "do something or i will!"

Gaster replied. "I'll get her fragment."

Hearing a teleportation noise from behind him and Horror. "Father, i heard everything from my necklace, i do not care what the risks are! I cannot let my soulless self suffer that would be selfish and cruel!"

She quickly grabs her soulless self, looking straight into her eye-sockets. They look deeply at each other with deep gazes.

Toriel's fragment blinked a few times. "Huh, well nothing bad seems to be happening...Other than holding her. What a relief, calm stuff for me for once."

The growling noises stop coming from where toriel's soulless self. Handing her back to Gaster.

He looks at Horror, he says to him. "Lets go and see if she can eat, i see if anything happened from their encounter with each other!"

Gaster nods.

Toriel's fragment follows behind them.

(Were Horrortale-Papyrus is at.)

"THIS FRIED CHICKEN IS AMAZING! FINALLY FOOD!" tears falling from his tiny eye-sockets, his face showing pure joy.

Everyone from Horror's universe are raiding the fridge continuously. Horrortale-Grillby is taking a break and eating his own food.

Gaster whispered to Horror. "are they going to be alright?..."

Horror replied. "are you seriously asking that question?"

He sighs, quietly replying to Gaster. "I will introduce them to the Toriel's, you can clean things up."

Gaster replied with a raised bonebrow. "Shouldn't i be the one introducing her to them?"

Horror replied with a calm expression. "my brother and friends so it would mean a lot more coming from me."

Gaster nods. "Makes sense. Ill clean the lab."

He snaps his fingers and goes to areas of the main room.

Toriel's fragment now holding her soulless self, she says to Horror. "I am a little nervous, i feel shy for some reason..." looking down at Horror.

Horror says in a reassuring calm voice. "nothing to worry about tori, my friends will love you both or uh just you?"

Toriel's fragment giggles. "Its fine."

Both walking towards his brother and friends.

Horrortale-Papyrus sees them and runs up excitedly. "HELLO BROTHER AND UHH...TORIEL'S!"

Toriel's fragment is holding her soulless self. She sighed. "This is me."

"WOWIE, A TINY YOU, SO VERY SMALL AND CUTE!"

Toriel's fragment laughs. "If i had skin, i would be blushing, you're very sweet! here."

Handing horrortale-papyrus her soulless self.

He is now holding her. "SO TINY..."

"UH SANS, WHY IS THE SMALLER TORIEL HOLDING HER HANDS AGAINST HER HEAD FOR!?"

Horror sighs. "I forgot about that, she's sensitive towards certain things, you see she hasn't been around long. From what I gathered now? a week in this life? loud sounds bother her easily bro..."

Horrortale-Papyrus replied in a much quieter voice. "oh...I'm sorry."

Horror pats his brother's right side. "It's fine, you didn't know."

"So this tiny child is you ms? She looks quaint!"

Horror looks at monster speaking, it is that strange looking monster that calls himself an elf.

Ahriman kindly smiled. "Like i could gubble her up, but that sounded rather inappropriate of me i apologize."

Horror raised his right bonebrow, he replied in a calm way with his hands in his pockets. "It's okay bud. I mean it was a joke." he chuckles.

"IT WASN'T VERY FUNNY SANS!" his brother sounding annoyed, Toriel's soulless self wiggles in his arms.

Horrortale-Papyrus speaks to Horror in a concerned tone. "uh sans, is she alright?"

Horror shaking his head sideways."You raised your voice again, i think she wants me."

Dogaressa says to Horror. "aww, does she think of you like a substitute dad?"

Toriel's fragment is silent.

(Awkward XD)

Chara sighs, replying quietly. "Well this just got weird fast..."

Aliza nods, replying feeling worried. "Yeah, maybe your adopted dad will do something about it."



(Where Gaster is at.)

He just finished sweeping near the computers. Hearing what is going on, he snaps his fingers and reappears near him.

"Is something the matter?"

Toriel's fragment replied, sounding a little weird in her voice. "I am just going to take a walk around the lab for abit."

Gaster reaches for her right shoulder. "Do you want me to go with you?"

She growled. "I want time alone or at least someone with me that isn't from here! no offense...But i never did get time alone to think! So i will talk to all of you later!" she quickly heads for a nearby door and leaves the main room. Not even talking to her children.

Chara calls out to Asriel. "WE SHOULD SEE IF SHE'S OKAY!"

Aliza grabs them. "Don't...Your mom said she wanted time alone, remember?"

Chara looks back at Aliza, feeling upset. "But-"

Aliza replied. "Trust me, she needs time alone..."

Horrortale-Flowey says to both Chara and Asriel. "Don't be idiots, your mom wanted her time alone. Sometimes people just want privacy okay? She is stressed and wants time to think so just stay here and try to relax. I am sure she'll be fine."

Chara replied. "Alright."

Asriel crossing his arms. "I forgot how bitter i was as you."

Horrortale-Flowey replied with his eyebrow raised. "No, it's common sense, kid. Just leave her be."

(Where Toriel is at.)

15-20 minutes later after exploring through lots of half of the rooms inside the lab.

Coughing, feeling a sudden breeze come through the halls. "Where is this wind coming from?"

Entering a large room, seeing massive crates and boxes of all sizes everywhere with labels on them. There is large crates with fabric over it.

Her eye-sockets darken. *So this massive room is the Storage room."

She looks and notices two nearby doors and mumbles to herself. One says Meat Factory. and the other Massive Ice Storage. The cold breeze is coming from the one called Massive ice storage.

Toriel's fragment looks to see a massive crate near the door labeled Meat Factory, one of them is dripping blood.

Thinking to herself. *Father, i have alot of questions to ask later...Like why is there a blood soaked crate in the food storage!?*

She looks at the door with the label above it. Meat Factory.

Horror and his universe comes to mind, briefly whispering to herself. "Oh my god, what madness lies within that place!?"

Curious, she enters filled with DETERMINATION.

Hearing the loud mechanical noises and the massive sounds of endless industrial clockwork, she continues forward to be greeted by two figures.

Mad Gaster and Dust.

"tori? Why are you here!?"

Toriel's fragment glaring at Dust. "What is this place!?"

Mad Gaster walks towards her with a calm expression. "Toriel, it is the lab's very own special Meat Factory."

Raising her right bonebrow up. "What type of meat?"

Mad Gaster grinned. "Humans of course!"

Toriel's fragment growls. "WHAT, YOUR KIDDING!??"

He sighs. "Toriel, its necessary...Did you not hear the conversation Gaster,Temmie,me and Dust had earlier through your necklace?"

Toriel's fragment looks at the floor, feeling upset. "I must have forgotten..."

She feels her head being lifted up by a magic hand, seeing it, now facing Mad Gaster.

He says to her in a calm tone. "I can only assume when you held your younger self something happened. No worries. Just don't hold her again."

Toriel's fragment realizes she is smaller. "Oh my gosh...w-why am i smaller!??"

Starting to panic. Mad Gaster lifts her up. "Simple, your encounter with yourself and holding of,
Made you smaller...Fusing you back with yourself won't be a problem."

Toriel's fragment feeling afraid. "I won't die will i?"

He shakes his head sideways. "You are a scattered soul fragment of Toriels, you will not die. Just simply be back with your body. There is nothing to fear alright?"

She sighs. "Um, is that why i have emotional outbursts and younger personality traits? Because my main body is a child?"

He laughs. "Well of course, aside from the unspeakable stress of being scattered across time and space. Going through the mental moments of insanity and emotional outbursts,crying and having issues handling it. I can only imagine such pain."

Toriel's fragment sighs. "You understand don't you?"

He nods. "Child, there is an endless amount of Gaster's who are scattered across time and space. The mental state of each is different. You are the daughter of one. Not naturally, sure but you are scattered across time and space like one, I feel you go through something much deeper than just being in multiple places at once.

But no worries, your father and i will be by your side and find ways to ease your pain."

She smiles. "Thank you."

Tilting his head to the side. "Thank me for what?"

She giggles. "For caring."

Mad Gaster blinked for a moment, feeling unsure how to respond for a moment. "Huh, well you're welcome."

Toriel's fragment says in a curious tone. "Um, seeing as you are a different version of my father....Do i call you father as well or just Mad Gaster?"

He grinned. "Huh, i have joked about it from time to time, i mean it would make sense if i were your father in some way i guess? Being a different version of him and what not. An alternate gaster.

Who knows? I mean it could be that way with any, if not all the other Gasters. Maybe not at all."

Shaking her head sideways. "Multiple fathers? That sounds weird..."

He laughs. "Sounds like a large dose of insanity to me, talk about annoying! can you imagine the possible weird other mes?

You would be better off with just one father.

I mean, i am too awful, compared to others I've met." She sees him chuckle.

raising her right bonebrow up. "There is more intense gasters?"

He laughs. "Very much so!"

She replies. "Well other dad or not, would it be alright if I thought of you as a 2nd dad?"

Dusttale sans says to her. "You're kidding right?"

Mad Gaster holds her close. "SURE!" sounding flattered.

She hears her bones making cracking sounds from the strength of his hug.

"Uh Mad Gaster your hug is crushing her..."

Mad Gaster carefully lets her go, placing her back on the ground.

He looks down at her. "Oh sorry, are you okay?"

She raises her right bonebrow up. "You are normally not a touchy person, you hugged me..."

He smiles. "You recently showered so i thought it was alright, otherwise i will not do this again so consider yourself lucky."

She laughed. "I am lucky then!"

Now looking at Dust, his right bonebrow is raised. "I wouldn't consider myself lucky if i was you...He's fucking nuts!"

Mad Gaster looks at dust, he laughs. "You are one to talk! Hey language!"

He frowned at Dust, now looking back at her and he says with a wide grin. "I will talk to your father,temmie,horror and dust here on how we can fix the Core in Horrortale and find a way to fuse you back to your body alright? Lets go back to the main room...Well, dust can return you back. I need to shower."

He snaps his fingers, leaving the area.

She looks at Dust. He sighs. "Lets leave this place...Uh tori, do you accept it?"

Tilting her head to the side. "What this factory?"

He nods.

She sighs. "It's necessary, is it not? As long as no more innocent humans and other innocent meat sources are harmed, horror and his friends are helped. I will be fine with it completely! But most importantly, things being alright in the end for everyone!" she smiles at him.

He pats her head. "Lets head back kiddo."

She puts her right hand on his shoulder.

They reappear later in the main room.
