Sans has had an interesting past. A past that even his beloved brother barely even knows of. A past that, despite being so long ago, always finds a way to bite back. A past that defines who he is - but he longs to erase. A past that doesn't let go, it clings to him despite his endless attempts to escape. And when someone finally attempts to uncover the veil, and fails in the process, what happens next? This book is a complete remake of the original Undertale: Secrets that was made nearly 3 years ago. By remake, I mean that this book takes the general plot of Secrets and basically "tries again". This will reuse elements of the original and cut out the parts I don't like while adding my own new ideas, effectively creating a new book. Whether you liked the original or didn't even read it, I hope you like this!!

Ever since the barrier was broken and monsters rose to the surface once more, it seemed like despite the odd reception that they received from the Humans of Ebott, everything was starting to take a turn for the better. But almost a year later, the others couldn't help but notice something different...specifically...SANS was different. The usual laid-back, wise-cracking skeleton was acting...strange. His smile was forced, he didn't tell jokes, he's deprived of sleep, and the demons that were thought to have been put to bed ages ago keep rising back to the surface to torment him. It was no secret anymore. Something was wrong...VERY wrong...but what?

~o0o~ Book 1 of the "Better Times" trilogy ~o0o~ (Book two: "A Name to Remember") (Book three: "No One is Happy with This") There was a time where a Royal Scientist got an idea. A time where he created two weapons, who turned out to be people. A time where he built a machine to power the Underground. There was a time when the timelines weren't messed up by a certain flower, and then a certain child. There was a time before. ~o0o~ Wattpad Featured Story on 4/28/17 - on the OLD featured list ~o0o~

~o0o~ Book 2 of the "Better Times" trilogy ~o0o~ (Book one: "The Time Before") (Book three: "No One is Happy with This") Ah. Hello there. You are here in search of a story? ... I could tell you a story of a family, reunited once more, living on the surface world. But such a story has not come to pass, nor do I know how such a story would come to pass. So I will not tell that story. I could tell you the story of how I came to be here, stuck in the black depths of nothingness. But, I have the distinct sense that this story has already been told, by hands not my own. So I will not tell that story. I could tell you a forgotten story. A story of a name long gone, a time erased eternities ago. ... Yes, this one, I think, is the story I will tell. For the name that was once my own, the name that has been lost to the Void, that is a name to remember. Dr. WD Gaster is a Name to Remember.

~o0o~ Book 3 of the "Better Times" trilogy ~o0o~ (Book one: "The Time Before") (Book two: "A Name to Remember") Two years after the Barrier was destroyed, it's a dark and stormy night. A group of friends; six monsters, one human, and one flower, celebrate the anniversary of the monsters' freedom. Everything starts off with a seemingly innocent question: "What does the thunder remind you of?" But the answer only leads to more questions. Questions born of curiosity. Curiosity killed the cat. And it's a hard learned lesson that Determination can't always bring everything back.

Crossposted from Archive Of Our Own Monsters have long forgotten the Judge through the passage of time. Reduced to myth and legend. What will happen when a certain skeleton is realized to be the Judge long forgotten. How will he deal with the certain societal pressures that have now been imposed on him? Will he ever be able to live up to the feats of his predecessors? What happens when time anomalies and timelines get into the picture? Will he break or will he persevere? Did fate perhaps make a mistake when choosing this skeleton? Only time will tell.

Sans knows a lot about secrets; he hides many. But when old burdens emerge from the darkness, secrets, new and old, put his brother in danger; and what else can a good big-bro do but begin a double life? This decision haunts him, even years after his suit of armor is stocked away and hidden, after his quaint life of depression, puns and resets are set to loop forever, and his part in the war is forgotten... But then, the barrier is broken. And it is quickly realized that this is not the end, but a beginning of something new. Something that feels like dust, blood, and a suit of armor; an old lie to slip into once more. (Currently being completely overhauled! Anything without a chapter title (ex.: chapter 4, chapter 5, etc.) is old and will be re-written!)

*FEATURED STORY* As Judge for King Asgore Dreemurr, Sans has seen a lot of strange stuff. But when he wakes up with the feeling that something is completely wrong, he decides it's time to investigate with the only monster who could know what was happening: Royal Scientist W.D. Gaster.
