They followed him across time and space and thus only appear in the game once it is manipulated? Or it could mean that they were trained by Gaster and served as assistants in his research, which is a perfectly acceptable use of the term. Which in turn would explain their filename designation and how they ended up succumbing to a seemingly similar fate. These two facts would need to be explained by any theory which makes Alphys and Sans (or any other pair of main characters) the "two" that Gaster is referring to.
