So, I've been thinking Ai, why not just seperate the team of heroes? Then I remembered something...Something from a completely erased timeline.

Darkness, thats all that I've been able to see for a long time. Its hard to look after the multiverse I'm from if nothing else exists, so I thought 'Why not MAKE something else exist.' And filled with that stupid idea, that stupid, stupid idea, I created a world. A simple Timeline alteration of another multiverse, but oh how wrong I was.

The world I made was perfect. There was no war to start with, no need for murder. And yet, the Player still managed to exist here. In a world where nobody went down without a fight, it was such a terrible idea.
///The Old Capital[Ruins]\\\

Toriel kneels, dust flaking off her. The child in front of her smiles, 'Its no different then the original' that murderous scum thought. Toriel opened her eyes and grunts, "You really are an evil creature. I may not be able to protect the six before, but I can stop you." She growls, her physical body solidifying once more.

The player looks shocked as Toriel's normal clothes start shifting, forming armor and a small crown on her head. "I will never bow to you!" She shouts, flamed burning behind her, and the player realized the fight had only just started.

///Snowdin City[snowdin Town]\\\

"I still believe you can change! Your heading down a dangerous path, but I can help you! The Great Papyrus never fails!" Paps stands in front of the player, a metal tipped bone in hand. The human offers a hug, and papyrus accepts. But as the human swings at him, he raises the bone and blocks the attack. "I thought so, Sans warned me about you but I didn't want to believe that. You've given me no choice, human!" Papyrus does his signiture 'Nyeheheh' and starts sending out more challenging attacks, with alternating colors and even orange bones.

///Royal Guard Hq[Waterfall]\\\

Waterfall changed the most, the once empty lands were crawling with armored guards and fleeing monsters. Finally, Undyne appears, a solid spear in her hand she points at the player. This fight wasn't any different, until she screams in fury. Three guards get in front of her, allowing Undyne to survive and continue sending magic attacks.

///Labratory\\\

'Alphys isnt here?' The player questioned, and the door to True Lab opens. Plopping, slopping, melted, the amalgamates slide towards the player. Thats when the see her, Alphys, at the door to the hidden lab. She looks at the human and goes inside the door, a determined look on her face. The amalgamates surround the player, and they raise the knife.

///Core Stage\\\

'The fuck? Nobody is here?'

             ///Final Corridor\\\

"Hrk! Y-you managed to strike me? I...no. This isn't it. I wont die to you!" Sans stands completely straight, both eyes flaring to life. "All of monsterkind is behind me, and you will perish!"

///Throne Room\\\

Flowey is there, in the middle of the room. He looks at the player and sighs, "So, even the trashbag failed. Asgore is at the barrier, he already absorbed the Bravery soul, so go suck a-" Flowey was ripped from the ground and impaled on the throne, ribbons of petals float from his dusting corpse.

                    ///The Barrier\\\

The player enters the barrier, and sees nothing. No twilight shining, no overpowered God of the mountain, just, void. It reminds them of something, but they cant seem to know what.
A familier form appears, Chara. But this time, she's different. She wears black clothes, similer to a funeral gown. Her hair is tipped red, and she radiates sadness. "Greetings, I am Chara...although, I dont want to talk to you, I have somewhere to be."

[Outside the Timeline, Core and (redacted) talk about removing the Timeline.]
"Yes, I know its my fault. But I never wanted genocide to happen here! You save people, right? You can still save the ones left."
"...Alright...but you owe me."
"I'll do that. Just help them and I'll do almost anything."

And so, Asgore, Nice Cream Guy, Grillby, and multiple other monsters were taken into the Omega Timeline. Finally, Chara was brought into there as well.
