A Fatal Error

(Unknown POV)

I had made it to this universe without to many problems thankfully, and decided to see if I could find Gaster so I could tell him that he didn't need Frisk anymore. What I saw though was shocking, Frisks soul was in a jar with Sans and Gaster fighting. Undyne, Grilby, and Ink providing aid.

Then I heard a glitched crying voice coming from behind me, turning around I saw myself only it wasn't me. They looked like Error did but you could see their soul on the shirt they wore. It looked glitched as well, "Hey there what's your name?" I asked them as carefully as I could.

They looked at me and the crying turned into quiet sobs as they decided whether or not to answer. "I'm Frisk, who are you?" They looked at me with almost curiosity as I probably looked strange to them as well. "You look like me but you are grey and not glitchy."

They had a glitched voice as I listened to what they had to say, even still I decided to answer them. "I'm Frisk as well, but you can call me Core so that you don't feel like your talking to yourself. Do you want to lend me a hand in dealing with that fight over there? We need to help that human get their soul back."

They looked at me as if they felt determined and nodded, "Yea I can help. Error has been distant for a while and I haven't been able to find him. I want him and Ink to be friends again, then the three of us can find the others. If they are still around." I nodded and we headed for the fight.

(Sans POV)

We had been fighting Gaster for a while and we each seemed to be getting tired as the fight continued, but if we didn't stop this soon then we would lose Frisk. So we fought until we all heard a voice that we didn't recognize. Even Error froze in place looking shocked. "Error, Ink, everyone STOP!!" It was a glitched voice and we all stopped and looked in their direction and what we saw was strange.

We saw two Frisks, one on a grey scale coloring the other looked like Error. "Who are you guys, and for your sakes you had better not be on their side." I said looking at them skeptically. Then Ink started moving to them looking almost like he was about to cry.

"Frisk... Frisk is that you. Oh my words where have you been, I've been looking for you since we got separated." He stopped approaching them as Error also made his way over to them as well.

"Frisk how did you get here, I thought we had lost you in the void. Are you alright, nothing bad has happened to you right?" Error actually sounded concerned so while they were distracted I went over to Frisk to see if they were alright. They were still breathing, and luckily enough Error left the container with Frisks soul here. I opened it and tried to put the soul back.

"Gaster you are free to return to your universe, you do not need a soul to go back. Courtesy of a friend." Apparently while Error and Ink were fussing over the error Frisk the grey scale Frisk had made their way over to Gaster.

"I see, I'm assuming you are a bi-product of them doing that?" He asked in return as Undyne and Grilby mad their way to me just as quietly. We didn't know what would happen if they noticed us so we tried to avoid making any noise.

"Sans what is taking so long, just put the kids soul back already so we can make a fast escape." Undyne said as I tried to use magic to put it back.

"I would if it were that easy Undyne, but we cant touch her soul without fusing with it. We have to be careful with how we do this." I replied glancing up as everyone else continued speaking to each other. Finally after some work I managed to put the soul back.

"Error I don't like what you did to me.. or well to classic Frisk. I don't know why you did it, I don't care why you did it. If it had been me instead of them would you have still done that, do you still want my soul?" The glitchy voice of error Frisk asked Error.

"Of course not Frisk, I would never ever do something like that to you. Any other Frisk in any other universe yes, but never you." He replied in his same glitched voice. Our Frisk starting to stir I made sure to keep them quiet so as not to call to much attention to us.

"Error why would you do that to any other Frisk but not ours, that doesn't make any sense. I'm not saying I want you to do that to our Frisk but I don't want it done to any other Frisk either. Its not okay to just do something like that. I'm sure that eventually we will find everyone but using Frisk to bring them all back isn't the way to do it. I miss them to but this isn't the way to go about it." Ink was looking at Error with a serious expression, when he turned to us.

Looking at Frisk who was now fully awake and hidden behind me he took a step forward. Error Frisk stopped him by taking his hand, shaking their head. They looked down at their sweater and at their glitched soul. Closing their eyes they moved their other hand taking a hold of it. A look of pain passed on their face as they pulled their soul free. "Error if you need a soul, if you are absolutely set upon doing this... take my soul and sent these monsters and Frisk back to their universe."

Their was a glitchy spot on the sweater where the soul had been, they seemed to be fazing in and out of existence as they held out their soul to Error. Ink just looked on in horror, "Frisk, no you cant give your soul to Error. If you do your physical form wont be able to stay whole anymore!?!"

"I know all to well Inky, but if this will make Error happy then I will give up my existence so that he can get everyone back." They said, their soul glowing bright with determination.

"Frisk.. I could never do that to you. Put your soul back before that hole closes and you cant anymore." Error sounded concerned as I looked on. The area the soul had been seemed to have shrunk slightly. How was the soul going to fit back in its place? My Frisk ran up to them before I could do anything.

"Put it back, you have to put it back. You can have my soul just put your soul back. Even without mine I will be fine, I can still live without my soul. You cant die yet, I want to get to know you, so put it back." They screamed at their other self as they came to a stop next to Ink.
