Reset (Underfell Brothers)

Chapter 38

I didn't care. I didn't care what the timeline is. I didn't want to see what happen next because I simply don't have the heart to see it but Metatton kept controlling it. Going in further and further into the story.

Dr. Gaster was sitting on the couch. He kept coughing and wheezing. Metatton rubbed his back, hoping he will feel slightly better but of course he doesn't. I could read his expression, that he was trying optimistic about the situation but he knew there was no way out. He gave a frown and looked down at his lap. Dr. Gaster looked at him with a sad smile.

He grabbed his hand, "Hey. Don't worry about me. I will be fine."

"You will be dead," Metatton speaks the truth.

"Well, I guess you're right. Look," he made eye contact, "I want you to promise something."

"What is it?"

"If I don't make it, I want you... To find your own identity and live that life. You're no longer under me understand?"

"But, I'm just a robot..."

Dr. Gaster chuckled.

"Metatton, you are more than that. You are more than parts and metals. You are a living being with a soul," he tilt his head, "Remember what I said? No one can decide your purpose. Only you."

Little did he know, Metatton became the most famous celebrity in the underground.

Metatton made a face that I couldn't read. It almost looked like he scrunched his face up. If that is possible.

"Metatton, are you... Trying to cry?"

"Yes, but I am unable to perform that as I have no tears."

"Daw," he smiled for a short while and then frown afterward, "Hey, the event is about to start."

"Right.." It was Metatton turn to frown, "Sans, Papyrus!"

"Coming..."

"Coming!"

The five of us left the house and went to the event, that Dr. Gaster was talking about, that was apparently held in Snowdin. It seems all the monsters in the underground attended the event There were tables that had all kinds of inventions on it.

I see. Dr. Gaster set this event up. He must have use his inventions as an excuse to make this event.

Monster were inspecting the inventions carefully. When it did something cool, they would awe towards it, amaze of how it function.

"Metatton," Dr. Gaster whispered, "Is everybody here?"

Metatton scanned the whole place, "Yes, everyone is present."

"Even the King?"

"Yes."

"Good."

Dr. Gaster went up the set up stage and picked up the mic that was on it, "Good evening everyone! Thank you for attending this crucial event of mine!"

"My name is Gaster and if you still don't know me, I am the first Scientist and Doctor to ever exist in this underground. This event is created to show all of you that your support helps me to create this wonderful inventions! Throughout all these years of experiment, hardwork and dedication, I will love to share my inventions will all of you!"

He took a breather and continued,

"Not only that, my assistant and I had made an mystery invention that is the greatest of them all! So stay tune to find out!"

Everyone applaud and whistle. Dr. Gaster puts back the mic on the stage. He waited for everyone's attention to be off him. When they are distracted, he went down the stage and collapse onto Metatton. Metatton managed to catch him on time with a concern expression on his face. Papyrus ran towards his father, panicking. Sans was there rolling his eyes but he was worried of course.
