Undertale: Shuffled Timeline

Undertale: Shuffled Timeline is an Undertale AU created by Artivoke. This AU takes place during the normal events of Undertale. Dr. W.D. Gaster has been watching Frisk throughout their journey, having seeing them make friends, or kill them in cold blood. The Player decided that they would take a break from the game, since it was all getting repetitive. This allowed W.D. Gaster to have his fun, toying with the timeline and changing history. This resulted in the game's code being severely shifted and shuffled, creating a new story of a Monster Civil War. The story will be forever changed once the Player comes back to play...
