SAVE: A The Dark Tower and QuantumTale Crossover

Chapter 2 - Time

Time Kid Sans' POV

30 minutes ago...

I was busy napping when I was awoken by the sound of children screaming. Cracks started forming in the ground as the screaming got louder and as I ran to get away. I ran into Frisk, who looked just about as scared as I was. But as sudden as the screaming happened, it stopped. We looked around and the entire area of Snowdin was dead silent. "That's not a good sign, is it?" I looked at Frisk, who was still in shock. She just looked at me and nodded. We ran through the pine trees to Snowdin, where things were in chaos. Monsters were panicking as they struggled to know, "What the heck was that?!" Undyne yelled. My brother, Papyrus, was scared to death and was hiding behind Undyne. Alphys replied, "All I-I h-heard w-were th-the screams of ch-ch-children!"Undyne saw me and Frisk coming towards them. "You!" Undyne pointed at me. "Do you have any idea what that noise was?!" I simply replied, "Like Alphys said. Screams. That's all it was."

Then, all of a sudden, I was somewhere else. I was floating in the sky. It felt like I was dreaming, yet at the same time, it felt like everything that I saw was real. In the distance, I saw a tower. A Dark Tower supported by 4 columns of great size and stature. Then I was back on Earth. A vision. "Um.. S-Sans are y-you ok?" Alphys asked, worry in her tone. "Eh. Don't worry about it." "Don't w-worry about it. I called your name six times before you responded." She said. But I replied, "I said don't worry about it." But, behind Alphys, I noticed something else. A silhouette hid behind a wall once it realized I saw. "Hold on, guys. Stay here." I didn't say anything else as I went near. When I looked around the corner of the wall though, there was no one there. It was just a dead end.

(The latter part is where things go to heck in a hand basket)

"Huh. How peculiar." I thought to myself. Then as I walked away, I looked back and saw a wormhole open from a desert. I also saw someone walk through. A man in black. The man laughed. "Am I in the right place?" He asked. "Who are you, and what are you doing here?" I replied to the man. I knew that he wasn't from around here. Another AU maybe, I thought. "Call me the Sorcerer, and I'm here for you and your friends." The man said. "How did you find this place?" TK asked. "I sensed YOU. That's how I got here. I sensed YOU." The man laughed again. My friends ran around the corner to see him facing down the Sorcerer. I turned around to look at the 5 of them. Asgore, Toriel, Undyne, Alphys, Papyrus, Frisk... But when I looked back, me and the Sorcerer made eye contact. My eye activated and I summoned a Gaster Ring and tried to attack him. But The man said, "Sleep." I didn't have 'time' (ayyyyy) to react before I fell over and my eyes suddenly shut tight and an overwhelming need for sleep covered me like a blanket until I was out cold, for what seemed like an eternity. I tried to fight it, but I failed to do so.

After an eternity of sleep, I awoke with an ache in my head. I looked around and what I saw literally burned my eyes. Snowdin was collapsing. But I turned and saw that the Sorcerer was coming back through the wormhole. I made a break for my guard post and hid there. "Where are you?" The Sorcerer asked as he looked. Then he turned and look at the guard post. He walked towards it and looked underneath it. I was gone. I entered the wormhole and ran as fast as I could away from it as to make sure he doesn't notice that I left through the wormhole.

As soon as the wormhole disappeared from view, I stopped running. I looked around me and I only saw desert for miles. But when I squinted at a dot in the distance, the dot formed into a man in a black trenchcoat. Underneath the coat were two iron revolvers, all locked and loaded. Hopefully, this guy might be friendly and not with the Sorcerer, but I stayed in place and waited for him to get nearer. I don't know how time passes here, but one thing's for sure. I'm running out of that precious commodity. Time.
