Alphys was wandering around her old lab. Searching for some of her old projects she could use to impress the humans at her new job at Ebbots engineering. when she showed off Metaton all her coworkers were taken aback with how far ahead monsterkind was in robotics that they had promoted her and made her boss in that department.
They gave her funding, a big lab to work in, assistants and whatever she could ask for! Just after they saw Metaton and what he could do.
The problem was... that they thought Metaton was fully functioning robot with code and all. While Metaton was really just a vessel she got her ghost friend to possess so she could impress the king and become royal scientist...
Not a hundred year in the future type of technology that she created. Sure the weapons were her's and Metatons body still needed to be charged like a robot would, but the only reason it works is because her friend is possessing it!
It doesn't change the fact that he's not fully a robot, well at least not as advanced as her coworkers think he is.
She's hyped her self so much that they're expecting to create even more robots like Metaton if not better. It's the underground amalgamates situation again!
She's trying to do something she has no idea how to do! She's good at engineering but not, 'being able to create sentient robots' kinda good!
So, story short. She's absolutely screwed if she doesn't find something she can use to get the human off her back.
Leading her to now, where she's still frantically searching for things she could use to show her higher-ups to prove she's working on something and not just using up their funding and time.
Looking through old boxes and books she just found old blueprint projects of hers, nothing that would impress the humans though. She even managed to find some old concept art for Metatons body. She cringed a little, she wasn't the best artist but yikes! She could totally do better then that! What was old Alphys thinking. Kittens for hands... she was more classy then that, it's the reason she installed cannons into Metatons hands.
She shoved that into her sleeve, no one needed to see that. Like ever.
Moving the folder she found her art in, she found another folder different from her usual bland yellow or occasionally covered in stickers folders. Alphys didn't even think she remembered using or having a black folder. It looked pretty well used too, odd was one of the words she could use to describe it. Her curiosity got the best of her and she opened it.
Low and behold she did not expect to find what she found. Some kind of report... about a robot called S4-W. Never it her whole career as the royal scientist did she create an other robot then Metaton. least one called S4-W, and if she did Alphys was pretty sure she would have remembered it.
Like some force possessed her too, she continued to finish reading the report with now an analytical eye. At the end she spotted the almost burned off initial of a W. Nothing more she could use to figure out who wrote this paper.
But from what she could infer, they had to be a royal scientist. the old one too, at least that what she got from reading report. It was addressed to the king of all people.
If this past royal scientist really did create this so called S4-W robot then this was exactly what she needed! Something she could use to help build her own functioning robot, no possession needed.
She was saved!
Alphys looked at the room around her. She was surrounded in boxes and books stacked high as tower's. She gulped, looks like she had a loooonnng... day ahead of searching if she wanted to find more of this past royal scientist's work.
