Throughout this timeline's genocide route things had just felt off. Like you were being watched. But... unlike normal it didn't feel like Sans was the one watching you.

You had finally pushed through Snowy and made it into the fields of waterfall, expected to find the halls of echo flowers and dark terrain empty. But a few feet in front of You... strangely enough appeared to be Mettaton. He shouldn't be here so early.

"Hello... darling~" He tilted his head, presented in his NEO form, his eye locking on you with a creepy expression. "You've been doing well this route, it's been so entertaining my dear friend." So it was Mettaton had been unusually interested in you this route. There was no way he had finally awakened to the truth of the timelines... or was there? Perhaps he had been watching you from Alphys's lab. "I remember the first time we met y'know... you were so pathetic and small. Now look at you, so strong." He chuckled, moving closer. He placed his hand on your shoulder, looking you directly in the eyes. "Though, don't think I haven't been helping you this time. It's very interesting. I have to owe it to you, I didn't realize it would be this fun to kill~" The words rolled off his tongue with ease. "That's besides the point though." He stood back up, brushing himself off with a netural expression thag beckoned a stoic aura, his arms crossing behind his back. "I've developed interest in your behavior... and I'm willing to help you continue out the run."
