8: who is gaster?

-the next day
Core!Frisk pov
I am eating a burger in grey-t taste in the bar side. The atmosphere is in a calm, well more like quiet as it sounds. The cook chopping grey colored vegetables and three other monsters dining in as well, an icecap, a wimsum and a vulcan.

I turn to the chef. Because his head is like the skelebros, Gard and that creature from yesterday, maybe he has a relation to at least one of them.

"Um, excuse me..." he then turns to me with his usual monotone face "Forig."

So that's his name, now to further the convo "yes Forig, yesterday I encountered a creature all skeleton, big, body like dinosaur, with a head of a gasterblaster."

He then turns to me fast with shock and i continued "do you know anything about it."

He turns back to his small grill and pause for a moment. He flipped a patty and began to answer "he was a creation from Gaster."

Gaster? "And... who is gaster"i ask as he answers while focusing one the line patty. "He was a the royal scientist, our once great scientist."

"You mean before Alphys?"

"Exactly. He was also incharge of containing the souls... before you. am i correct?"

"Yes, I am suppose to be the seventh soul. But now everything was resolved and the barrier is finally broken."

He turn quick again but with full shock this time. He gave a small grin and nod then turn back to his grilling. I guess that was his way of 'thank you'.

"And... what was you relation to gaster." "I was one of his assistants before." "Hmm. Who else was his following assistant." "... alphys, and his son Sans." Sans?!!!

I didn't know Sans worked with alphys before. Maybe Sans knows more than I do.

I drag the conversation on "who made the core?" "Gaster, this core was made to create energy power by heat for the underground."

And now one final question "um? I just have one last question. Is there any way out? For any of us? For all of us?" I plead hope to know that there is just one possibility.

He turn his head and his jaw faint slightly down making a frown and sowly shook his head. That was not the result I was hoping for.

"It was made to contain and produce emergy alone. This core never had any purpose for anyone to actually enter."

That does sound a lot more sense.

"The last I heard about him . . . He he entered the core first."

. . .

Wait. Does he mean by, HERE?!

If Forig doesn't know a way, then I have to speak to the creator himself. He is the only person i can turn to left.

I asked Forig and but he said has never recontacted Gaster since after Gaster's disappearance.

Forig then tought of a lead. 'The creature, the 'Goul walker', since that creature has roam on the outskirts of
Exdon, maybe it witness gaster'.

But first I need a little more help.

- the inn

I rush the door open to pass Clan and Shelly to my room. Of course Shelly ask if I had dinner. I grab Gard and rush back out "hey kid! What the big I idea! I didn't even finish my pie-!" Slam the front door shut, leaving the two roommates with confused looks.

- The plains

"So you're telling me that there is a ghoul walker down here? The real questions are WHO and WHY?" While Gard is processing everything from what I have told him I got the walker in sight.

I came closer to the walker and turn to Gard."What kid?" "I need you to help me talk to him, i thought that maybe you two are related." "What? Our mother FINALLY showed up?" This guy. "Alright kid, what do you me to ask him." "Has he seen Gaster?"
". . . He is still here?" "This is what you call a one way place."

Gard did champs and gumbles which I guess is translating my question. The walker bob its head and walks the opposite the direction of the village.

-10 minutes later.

We walk further and further, following the walker. In the sight, a scenery of a endless ground, endless nothing. If gaster is out there he must be in a lonely time.

Then the walker stops, pointing his head straight ahead.

Ahead a small figure but in the distance and then ot hit me.

It's him.
