Everything was going fine at the sleepover besides one thing, the breakfast tacos. The shells ended up covered in paint and the lettuce was off, the meat was burnt to ashes and the cheese. Well let's not talk about the cheese.
Underswap Papyrus, Honey walked into the kitchen while the two Sanses cooked and then walked straight out the front door. Ink and Blue took it as a bad sign but laughed about it anyway. It was the fastest Honey had left the house with the two cooking.
"How long do you think till Pappy comes back this time?" Blue asked giggling like crazy with both eye lights stars.
"I don't know but did you see that jaw drop! Pfft ha ha ha!" Ink laughed.
"Pappy was like, Woaaahhhhhh!? And uhhh nah and nope!" Blue giggled and gestured wildly with arms and hands. Ink laughed louder.
"You forgot the AHHHHH! What's burning!!" Ink responded and Blue burst into laughter. They both hunched over laughing their skulls off.
"Not the honey!" Blue giggled pretending to be the taller skeleton. Ink laughed louder and then wiped paint away from their eye sockets.
"Oh stars. That was hilarious!"
"Yeah." Blue agreed calming down a bit.
"What happened to the cheese!" Ink blurted out causing them both to laugh again. They were having fun mocking Papyrus.
"We should clean up." Blue said after a while of laughter.
"Yeah we should." Ink snickered and pointed to the roof. Blue looked up and then laughed again.
"There is no way Pappy is gonna be happy with that!"
"Nah ah!" Ink agreed and grinned. "Lets clean everything else but that up so then Honey can see it."
"Okay!" Blue cheered and rolled up their sleeves. "Let's clean!" Blue then wiped up the mess while Ink cleared all traces of paint and inks from the kitchen, besides Ink Sans that is.
Every now and then Ink paused slightly from a slight stab of pain but didn't really draw any attention to it, Ink brushed it off as sleeping wrong pains.
"Hey Ink, can you help here?" Blue asked stained on tippy toes trying to put a pot away.
"I'll try. I am only just taller by a little bit!" Ink said and helped Blue before crying out and gripping their rib cage in pain.
"Ink?! Are you okay?" Blue asked with worry.
"M-my soul... it hurts..." Ink murmured keeping eye sockets closed.
"How?" Blue asked looking for Monster Candy.
"Stabbing." Ink replied. Claws. It felt like claws gripping at the fake soul... almost like... "I have to check the Doddle Sphere!" Ink yelled and stood up wobbly.
"Woah! Ink! Sit down!" Blue commanded and returned to Ink's side swiftly with some of the candy.
"No! I have to check the Doddle Sphere! Something is trying to get in!" Ink hissed and stayed standing. Blue sighed and helped Ink stay up right handing over some of the candy.
"Eat this too."
Ink grumbled and opened a portal while crunching on the Monster Candy and together, Ink and Blue then walked through the portal into the Doodle Sphere. It closed behind them.
Ink's eye lights widened at the sight before them and Blue stood in shock.
Several pages of A.U.s were completely blank empty white sheets of paper that were fraying at the edges.  Dusty remains of paper floated around creating a thin layer of white over everything.
"Oh. My. Stars! What's going on?!" Blue yelled snapping out if the shock. Ink looked around eye lights slowly shrinking and body shaking.
"I-it's started... M-my bad dream... I-it's coming true." Ink whispered a slight sliver of fear present before all emotions cut off. "We need to know which A.U.s are gone."
"Right! And we should probably also evacuate the A.U.s while we can!" Blue suggested.
"I'll start on that, once we get Dream. We will need help with this." Ink replied and then tried opening a portal only for a white swirl appear. Ink frowned at this and entered the uncoloured portal. White.
White..
White...
The whole place was white.
What world and timeline was this again? Ink couldn't see any markers to help determine what world and route it was. It was just white like the Anti Void all over again. White. Blank. Empty. Ink shuddered and looked around.
"Hello! Anyone here?"

But nobody was there

Nothing.
It was like Ink's dream only worse. It even felt like a... deleted world. "Coding. I need to find coding somehow. Yeah." Ink's red dot and blue question mark eye lights glanced around. It could be brushed off as a completed genocide route stuck in the reset stage but that didn't feel right. The whole place didn't feel right. Ink's hands and feet felt a bit tingly. Why were they tingly? Ink looked down and let out a scream before opening a portal and running back into the safety of the Doodle Sphere.  There Ink continued to scream till Blue teared up and cried because of Ink being scared. If Ink got scared of something it meant something bad.
"I-Ink! What did you see?" Blue stammered out.
Nothing.
Nothing.
Nothing.
"I saw nothing!"
"Nothing?" Blue questioned confused.
"Everything was gone! It was wrong! Then, then I looked down and m-my hands and feet and well, the edges of me were dusting! Dusting! For no reason! The whole place was unstable a-and broken! There's nothing there but white and it made me feel sick. I hate white, I hate empty blank... white... nothing.. voids...." Ink exclaimed till the end before slowing down going into a slow paced, locked inside, whisper. Ink looked at their shaky hands again.
No damage but the feeling was still there. The slow tingle and dullness as the code and magic broke apart into small pieces of dust and magic bits. Magic.
"I'm sorry for scaring you Blue." Ink apologised and glanced at the just smaller Sans. Blue gave a shy smile and sniffed wiping blue tears of magic away.
"I-it's okay... you got a fright and acted reasonable. But! Have no fear! For I! I great magnificent Blueberry Sans will stay strong for you and I will beat all the baddies who dare harm the Multiverse!" Blue declared putting on a heroic pose, star  shaped eye lights and a massive grin.  "Mweh heh heh!"
Ink smiled slightly at Blue's act. "We should find others who can help."
"Yeah, right about that!" Blue interrupted dropping the pose and returning to normal circle eye lights. "A lot of the A.U.s gone are the hero and baddie ones."
"What? What do you mean?" Ink asked blinking a few times causing multiple eye light changes till it stoped on a question mark of yellow and a square of orange.
"I can't find a lot of alternate you's or me's or Dream's. I couldn't even find Horrortale. Yeah I know Horror is with the other team but that world is gone too." Blue informed. "UnderFell is gone too."
"Are all of them gone?" Ink asked frowning with a thinking expression.
"I don't know Ink." Blue whispered tearing up again. "A-and I decided to c-check my world a-and i-it's gone!" Blue then burst into tears and hugged Ink. "P-Pappy's gone! Undyne a-and Al-l-" Blue sobbed unable to finish any further.
"We were just there..." Ink hummed and hugged Blue back with one arm.  "Okay, we are gonna have to start, with or with out help. We need to get as many as possible A.U.s and timelines into the Anti Void now." Blue nodded slowly.
"H-how is this happening Ink?" Blue asked and wiped tears away vigorously.
"I don't know Blue. I don't know." Ink replied and looked at the still floating paper searching for an A.U.
The first non blank paper was SwapFell. Ink immediately opened a portal there and tried to evacuate that universe into the Anti Void. Of course there was problems with that. There is always problems. This was the Multiverse we were talking about here.
