Goth scowled as he worked on the math problem, the answer escaping him for the moment as the teacher helped another student.

Math... was definitely not his best subject. Did they always have to have it first thing in the morning, he was not a morning person.

His days were rather lonely, no one wanted to be friends with the quiet kid with amnesia, specially if there power could kill them in minutes. It hurt, but in the last weeks had made it easier. Yet he still wanted friends.

He wanted to know what it was like to play with other children, to have sleepovers he heard the other children speak of.

Sans, his guardian has said give it time and he;d find a friend.

Goth didn't want to wait, but then again what child did.

"Sans!" Goth called happily, seeing his Guardian picking him up. he ran over and hugged them, there gloved hands tugging on there guardians clothes.

"Woah there," Sans chuckled, picking up the child.

"I thought you were suppose to be too busy today to pick me up?" he chirped happily, Sans smiled and rubbed his skull. His guardian wore gloves, so there were no accidents and they could interact easier and children needed positive reinforcement.

"It ended early, but I have a surprise for you," the older monster grinned.

"Chocolate?" Goth asked hopefully eyes shining.

"Sorry kid, your way to obsessed with chocolate," Sans said, Goth stuck his tongue out.

"There is never enough chocolate."

"Geeze, he sounds as chocolate obsessed as the Destroyer."

Instantly Goth clung to his guardian, if he had been a feline his fur would have risen from the sudden intruder.

"Hey... its okay Goth, this is my friend Blue," Sans said, a singular purple eye light peered at the stranger and he blinked.

"Sans, he's a shorter you."

"No, he's just tall," Blue grinned.

"Ha ha ha," Sans said dryly amused.

"Really Alter, he's adorable," Blue said.

"Alter?" Goth said then scowled and protested "I'm not adorable!"

"Remember how I said there are more Sans out there, when more of us meet we have nicknames. I use Alter as this Au is called Altertale," his guardian explained to the scowling child.

"Still not adorable," Goth protested.

"Alright, your cute instead," Alter teased, getting into an amusing 'argument' with his ward. Blue watched all this grinning, glad to see the taller alternate of himself being so happy.

"You ready?" Blue asked cheerfully.

"For what?" Goth asked as there fight ended.

"I Blue, am bring you to meet the rest of the Star Sanses!" Blue said loudly, Goth stared at him.

"A rock band?"

Blue cackled at the question.

"You'll see!" Blue said pushing Alter and Goth through a portal.
