[ENTRY NUMBER 0. TIMELINE NUMBER 9]
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN A WHILE, I FEEL SCARED.
EVERYTHING THAT EXISTS HERE IS MY CREATION. I CAN DO WHATEVER I WANT WITH THEM...
BUT I AM AFRAID THERE WILL BE CONSEQUENCES FOR EVERYTHING I DID TO THEM IN THE PAST.
I AM NOT DONE YET. THEY CAN'T DO THIS TO ME.

[INK]
...You look tired, pal.

[XGASTER]
I have overdone myself this time, it's nothing. The First Phase of our game is complete.

[INK]
AMAZING! Can't wait to play with... What's its name again?

[XGASTER]
The X-Event.

[INK]
Haha, you like that letter a lot, don't ya?
...Well... what are we waiting for? Let's go!
[XGASTER]
I can't go with you. I am sorry.
My only purpose was creating and testing the Overwrite button. The Second Phase depends on you and the experiment.

[INK]
Experiment? Oh... the kids, right.

[XGASTER]
I know something will happen in the future. Please, keep this safe for me.

[INK]
Wait- THIS IS YOUR SOUL!! ARE YOU CRAZY!?

[XGASTER]
I will survive with Chara's half. I can stand his DETERMINATION.
Let the experiment do as it pleases, follow its game...
Be the hero or the villain of its own calamity until I decide when to start Phase Three.

[INK]
This is gonna be so much fun!! When shall we meet again?

[XGASTER]
When the experiment leads me to the future that has cost me so much to find all along.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
[ENTRY NUMBER 1. TIMELINE NUMBER 9]
I AM GETTING WEAKER. NO ONE MUST KNOW ABOUT THIS...
...ESPECIALLY THE EXPERIMENT.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[X!CHARA]
This place makes me sick.
Just look at them...
All the work that XGaster put on us, just to make this timeline... garbage.

[X!FRISK]
If this looks perfect to him. Then it's okay.

[X!CHARA]
This is not what he wants.
I've seen some of his memories after we got the other half of his soul.
...He's been visiting the main universe since our training started.

[X!FRISK]
But... he said that no one is allowed to go there...!

[HUMAN]
AGHH! STUPID MONSTER!
YOUR DISGUSTING HAIR IS ALL OVER MY FOOD!!
[MONSTER]
HEY, LEAVE HER ALONE OR I'LL KICK YOUR BUTT!

[HUMAN]
BRING IT ON, STUPID DOG!!

[X!CHARA]
ENOUGH! I'M TIRED OF THIS POINTLESS TIMELINE!!
KILL THEM, KILL THEM ALL!!

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
HEY! CUT IT OUT!
What do you think you're doing!? This is the little prince's ceremony!
Behave, or Undyne and Mettaton will teach you some manners.

[HUMAN & MONSTER]
I-I'm sorry...
Sorry...

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Poor human... are you hurt?

[X!FRISK]
N-No. I'm fine...

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Thank heavens! Let me give you a hand.
I hope you can enjoy the rest of the day.

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
What are you doing. We have to get home.

[X!FRISK]
Y-yes.

[XTALE!SANS]
Hey, Papyrus. What are you doing there?

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Someone lost a rare accessory in the midst of the crowd...
It's damaged, so I'm trying to fix it before returning it.

[XTALE!SANS]
You're a good role model for this town, bro.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Not until I get to find the owner of this item.

[XTALE!SANS]
Don't worry. I can help ya with that.

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
You're not allowed to interact with anybody.
If you try to escape again, I will notify XGaster about this.

[X!CHARA]
Go to hell, Alphys.

[XGASTER]
...Where have you been.

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
We were checking the data used for this timeline... while taking a walk.

[XGASTER]
A walk, huh?

[X!FRISK]
Yes. Everything is working perfectly.

[XGASTER]
I see.

[X!FRISK]
The subject's data will not present any setbacks.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
NYEHEHEHEH!!!!
Good boy! You found them!
Oh!? It's the human! Hey! You lost this in the tussle.
I fixed it for you with my greatest technique!
Uh-oh... it seems I gotta repair this fence, too.
This requires a lot of duct tape! I'll be right back!

[XGASTER]
Experiment. You're grounded.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Oh...
Do you want the tape anyway or...

[XGASTER]
Leave.
What makes you think you're safe coming here?
You don't know if I'm dangerous.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
You're old enough to know on your own if you're good or evil, sir.

[XGASTER]
Hm, hm... I guess you are right.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[ENTRY NUMBER 2. TIMELINE NUMBER 9]
BLACK, WHITE, OR GRAY.

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
It tastes very good.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
See? It's not poisoned. Try some pie, sir!

SINCE I CAN NO LONGER USE MY POWER LIKE BEFORE, I SPEND TIME WATCHING THIS WORLD IN SILENCE.

[XGASTER]
...No, thank you.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Nyeheh... You're always sitting there. Don't you get bored?

[XGASTER]
I do. But I must keep waiting.

THIS HAS LED ME TO SEE THIS WORLD IN A DIFFERENT WAY...

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
...Waiting for what?

[XGASTER]
That is an interesting question.

...AND I HATE THAT.

[XTALE!ALPHYS] (Translated)
-THE EXPERIMENT ESCAPED FROM ITS PRISON, MY LORD.

[XGASTER] (Translated)
EXCELLENT.

I HAVE COME TOO FAR TO TURN BACK.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Oh! Hello, little human!
I haven't seen you in a while!
I brought some gifts for everybody! Let's go to your place!

[X!FRISK]
Take it.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Huh? is it broken again?

[X!FRISK]
PUT IT ON!!

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
Hey, don't yell at me!
Why do you want me to wear that, anyway?

[X!FRISK]
Ha... ha ha ha...
Because you and I will face HIM together, as always!

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
...Who? I don't understand...

[X!FRISK]
You don't even know his name, but you think he's your friend... how cute...

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
So what? I don't know your name either and I think you're nice... kind of...

[X!FRISK]
Oh, Papyrus... If you want to know about us...
...you must know the truth.
LET ME TELL YOU A LITTLE SECRET...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[XGASTER]
Well... so what did It tell you?

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
...Enough.
I wanted to ask you personally if all of that is true.

[XGASTER]
Yes, it is.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
...W-what's going to happen now?

[XGASTER]
I don't know.

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
...Uhh... what?

[XGASTER]
What is going to happen next...
...Experiment?
Everything was going so well until you ruined it with your melodramatic attitude.
What is the matter, experiment? Do something.

[X!CHARA]
What's he up to...?

[XGASTER]
If you think your stupid lockets can change something, then go ahead.
Take responsibility for your actions.

[X!FRISK]
HYPOCRITE... I HATE YOU!!!

[XGASTER]
"Hate" is a pretentious term.
You are most likely... afraid of me.
((It seems that it's not the right time yet.))

[XTALE!PAPYRUS]
It's sad.
It's sad that something as valuable as a heart...
...has to carry a burden like that.
I always thought the air of sorrow was normal in these lands...
...But now I understand that we are just your reflection.
...Next time, don't give us real feelings, please.
You are the only ones that need to understand your own mess.
We will be greatful. That's a promise.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
Lord XGaster.

[XGASTER]
Ugh... where am I?
...And why do you look smaller?

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
We are in the Underground.
Data shows a massive alternation in the Core.
The Experiment managed to change time and space separately with the RESET button.

[XGASTER]
That annoying button... I guess I can tolerate it this time.

[XTALE!ALPHYS]
...As long as this incident brings you closer to your desired future, my lord.

[XGASTER]
Yes. The wait has finally paid off.
