A Strange Universe (Error Sans)

a strange universe

Deafening silence enveloped the Anti-Void. Error sans enjoyed the silence-he found it quite relaxing. He rotted away, lazing around on a beanbag, and played around with a puppet of Fell Sans.

"I'm still your friend, Error!" Error said, mocking the voice of Fell. Error squeezed the puppet and shook it with vigor. "You know what you did, abomination #13!!"

Suddenly, a strange feeling swept through Error. It was a feeling like... an anomaly too large to ignore had taken place. A Frisk from a certain AU stopped existing, somehow, and that led to the AU being susceptible to hacks and break-ins from not-so-friendly entities. Entities like Error.

The AU in question wasn't an AU that Error had visited previously, in fact, there wasn't even a name for it (so it will be called Stupid Awful Dumb Shouldn't Even Exist Anomaly #4764, or SADSEEA for short). Error flicked his hand and sent the Fell Sans puppet flying into the air via a handful of blue strings and climbed off his bean bag. He waved his hand again, creating a portal to SADSEEA, and walked through.

The probability of a universe like THIS was less than one in a hundred trillion.

Error should've appeared in the Ruins, or at least something that at least resembled the Ruins. Instead, he found himself in the middle of a massive underground garden. The cavern had been dug out wide enough for rows of carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, pumpkin, strawberries, and all other kinds of fruits and vegetables that Error couldn't name to stretch to the ends of his poor eyesight. There were also orchards with multitudes of fruit trees. A single, enormous ball-shaped latern sat at the highest point in the cavern, giving off enough heat and 'direct sunlight' to grow all of this underground. Error walked deeper into the Gardens; he found himself in an open area with a playground and a public bathroom. If he squinted, he could follow a road that led to a neighborhood that looked well-populated.

At least it used to be. Dust was spread all over the playground and formed small piles all over the pavement. Error smiled. Destroying this freak of nature AU was going to be MUCH easier because Frisk had started a genocide run before they mysteriously disappeared.

The glitchy skeleton summoned an equally glitchy Gaster Blaster and shot at the bathroom, which set it ablaze. He burned down the trees and ripped the crops up with his strings. Error glitched over to the neighborhood and hunted down the remaining survivors and killed them without a second thought, easily dodging their pathetic defensive magic. Before long, the entire park, garden, and neighborhood were completely trashed, being broken and burned beyond recognition.

Then, suddenly, amidst the chaos, Error heard someone crying. He stopped what he was doing and listened. Everyone was supposed to be DEAD already, there was no one left who would be able to cry. Curious, Error followed the noise down a long road that was completely covered with trees and bushes. Signs reading "You are now entering Royal Property..." and "Queen Frogriel's Private Garden" littered the forest. However, up ahead, there was a human child that couldn't have been older than 12 huddled over something and crying in bursts. The child had tangled brown hair that extended a few inches below their shoulder, and they wore a vertically striped purple pajama shirt with clashing tan overalls.

"Reset... reset..." they mumbled, shaking the thing in front of them. "Please, Frisk, reset..."

Error tried reading the human. They looked like some variant of Frisk, but whatever was in their code was too primitive for Error to pick up on. What Error could read, though, was there was a mix of Aaron, Moldsmol, Undyne, Alphys, Vulkin, and every monster in the underground in their soul. He blinked to try to adjust the results but they remained just as odd. Error brushed it off; it wouldn't matter when the child stopped existing. He got closer to Frisk and summoned a blaster. Frisk was supposed to be dead in this universe, that's the whole reason why he came over in the first place.
