"We need to go see Asgore!" I say, pacing in the room. I step over the papers still laid down, but I don't let that stop me. "Yes, but we also need to go to the True Lab. I haven't been there since the first time I met Sans." Ink thinks it's more important to see if there is the machine in this dimension. But I need to ask Asgore why there are symbols in the Judgement Hall. This could be a huge leap forward.

"If I can see the machine, I should be able to tell what it can do." Sans tried to justify Ink's argument. I need to see the Judgement Hall. I know it is an important clue to this mystery, but it's also an important key in this universe. It's where Sans fights the human at the end of the genocide route. And I know this may sound selfish, but it may help me remember something about who I was before I became Error.

"But why go see a machine, when Asgore may already have all the answers." I continue to rant. Sans gets off the floor to join me and Ink standing. "Error, we don't know that he remembers anything before the resets." Ink explains to me. Oh yeah, another stupid variable in this stupid equation. The resets. The Classic Universe doesn't remember anything before the resets. Why? We don't know.

That's why all the back stories for the other AU's are just made up by Ink. It's good to have something rather than nothing. But I can't really relate with that. All I have ever had was nothing.

"Speaking of the resets, we need to figure this out before the human comes." Sans says, laying down another layer of panic. "They come today?" Ink questions quietly. Sans nods.

Oh, this is not good. "Do you think they will resent today too?" I ask worriedly. This could screw a huge wrench into the problem. If they reset, we have to get out of here. That's the thing, we aren't a part of the code. So when the human resets, theoretically we would either be forever stuck in this universe or we would cease to exist. The universe doesn't like it when there are too many Sanses on its turf. Also, that means we would have to reexplain everything. Basically scrapping all the progress we have made in the last hour.

"What time to they come?" Ink asks looking around for a clock. "Around noon." He says without thinking about it. No wonder why he couldn't sleep. He must have been worried out of his mind if today was the day he would see his brother die.

It's currently 5am. We have only have 7 hours before the human comes. 7 hours to crack the code and to reverse what has been done. We need to find out several things in such little time. Why was the machine made? What was it made for? And most importantly...

Who made it?
