A/N: I have absolutely no Idea where I'm going with this. This story was born after I finished an incredible comic called homestuck. After I finished it, I went to fanfictionnetwork and started looking for fanfiction. Almost none of the stories were finished, so I decided to write my own. Bear with me, It's my first fanfiction. T for now, may change to M later

Disclaimer: I do not own homestuck, I am not Andrew Hussie. I am in no way cool enough to be him.

Lets see where this goes...

My breath comes in gasps. I've been sprinting for fifty minutes strait. Another knife comes flying out of the woods around me and I duck and roll. It spins past my head, cutting off the tips of a few hairs as it goes.

"Fucking hell!" I scream into the woods and duck behind a tree, catching my breath.

"He He He," giddy, girly giggles fill the woods around me.

Another knife spins past my head and I narrowly avoid this one too. I'm up and running again in seconds. The chase is back on.

I quickly pull my sickle out of my belt and use it to catch the next knife that comes my way. Good. Now I have two weapons. As I run I examine the knife. Long, slightly curved and made of black metal. I test it against my upper arm and leave a crimson slash. Wickedly sharp. Perfect.

Suddenly I see a red and white flash. I drop to the ground and land on my hands, supporting my weight solely on them. I push into a handstand and knock the cane aside with my legs, then spin. I raise up onto one arm (the arm with my knife) and bring my sickle swinging around. It crashes into the bark of a tree millimeters away from the girls body.

The cane comes at me again and I push off. The sharp end of the cane thuds into the ground. I whip around and scythe the knife through the air. Terezi ducks it like I knew she would, but I am ready for her. I bring my sickle around catch Terezi on it, trapping her neck on the tree with the inside curve of the blade.

"There, I win," I say.

Terezi giggles. "Think again, silly Nubby," she says and points to my stomach.

I look down and see red leaking through my shirt. Her cane is stuck into my belly. I look at Terezi, then back down at the cane, then back at Terezi.

"Are you trying to kill me fuckass?"

Terezi pulls her cane out of my stomach with a sickening squelching noise. She then proceeds to pull off my shirt and grab some gauze and cotton from the breast pocket of her vest. Terezi places the thick cotton pad on my stomach and wraps gauze around me to hold it in place. Her nose twitches.

"Lots of cherry candy," she mutters and looks back up at me.

Maybe looks isn't the right word. Her face turns toward mine, but she isn't actually looking at me. She licks my cheek.

"Karkles, the point of the exercise was to pit ourselves against each other."

"Yes, Terez, I understand that. But we're training as Threshecutioner and Legislacerator.Not Killer and Killee dipshit!"

"Stupid Karkles, Killee isn't a word!"

I put my sickle back in my belt and rub my eye with my now free hand, "Terezi, you're missing the point. You could have seriously hurt me."

Terezi giggles, "Yes, you got the point."

Terezi hands me my shirt back and I pull it over my head. "Haha, Terezi funny."

I turn and begin to walk back toward our shared hive. Terezi quickly catches up to me and I look over at her.

Terezi has grown and matured a lot. She got about five inches taller since she was six sweeps and her figure has filled out completely at nine sweeps. I can't help but run my eyes over her curves.

No! Bad Karkat! I think to myself

I pull my eyes back up to her face which is dominated by a pair of pointy red glasses and a large mouth. Candy corn colored horns, short, curved and pointy stick up out of shoulder length black hair. She sniffs and looks at me. Her lips part in her signature crocodile smile.

"Checking me out again, hmm Karkat?" she asks cheekily.

I blush and look back in front of me in time to walk into a tree face first. I fall back onto my ass.

"Ow! Stupid fuck of a nubsucking nooksniffing tree!"

"He he he," Terezi giggles and pulls me to my feet.

I raise myself up to my full height which is now over a head taller than her. My cheeks burn darker red and I rub my nose. Terezi sniffs and smiles.

"Cherry candy!" she says excitedly then she licks my cheek.

I pull back. "Terezi! Don't lick me!"

Terezi smiles her crocodile smile at me.

"But you know that you actually like it," she says cheekily.

She proceeds to wrap her arms around me and lick my face all over. Then she leans her head against me.

"You know I can smell you blushing," she murmurs to me.

I wipe the saliva off my face and try to think anything but what I'm thinking at the moment.

"Come on," I mutter grumpily. "Let's just get back to the hive."

We walk for another few minutes before Terezi stops again and turns to me.

"Can I have my knife back, Karkles?"

I look at the black bladed knife in my hand and slide it into my belt on the opposite side as the sickle.

"I think I'll keep it," I say to her. "As a memory of the time you almost stabbed me through the stomach. It's not like you don't have enough knives."

Terezi mutters something under her breath but starts walking again.

We make our way back to our hive and I open the door. I walk to the living room and flop down on our couch. Terezi walks into the kitchen and comes back out with a bag of chips. She sits next to me on the couch. The bag opens with a pop and Terezi sticks her hand in. It comes out with a chip and she sniffs it before putting it in her mouth. I reach toward the bag. Terezi smacks my hand away and continues to eat her chips.

"Terezi, why can't I have some chips?"

Terezi looks at me, focusing on a point about an inch to the left of the center of my forehead. Okay she's good, but not perfect.

"Ask me first Karkles."

I sigh and say, "Can I have a chip?"

"Nope," Terezi says cheerfully and pops another chip into her mouth.

"Fuckass," I mutter and grab the remote to turn on the television.

I flip through until I find the movie channel. The Notebook is on. Perfect, Terezi hates this movie. Sure enough, Terezi wrinkles her nose and makes a grab for the remote. I pull it out of her reach.

"Ask first," I say.

"Can I please have the remote, Nubby?"

"Nope," I say and continue watching the movie.

Terezi grumbles some choice swears and settles. About halfway through the movie. I turn off the T.V. and walk into the kitchen.

"What do you want for dinner?" I yell back into the living room.

"Can we have pancakes?" Terezi asks.

"for dinner?"

Terezi walks into the kitchen and nods at me. I shrug then, realizing the futility of the gesture I say,

"Sure if you really want to."

I pull the pancake mix out of the cabinet and begin making the pancakes. Terezi jumps up and sits on the counter next to the stove.

I quickly finish making a big batch of pancakes and pull the syrup out of the cabinet. Juggling the syrup and plate of pancakes, I walk to the table on the other end of the kitchen and place them down.

"Terezi, could you grab the plates, napkins and silverware?" I ask.

Terezi walks in holding plates napkins knives and forks. We quickly set up the table and sit down to eat.

"So a couple of friends are coming over tomorrow," Terezi says around a mouthful of pancake.

"Oh really?" I say, swallowing. "Who?"

"Sollux, Feferi, Kanaya and Aradia. Oh! And Nepeta"

I groan and push my chair away from the table.

"Does the cat girl have to come?"

Terezi looks hurt, "Nepeta is one of my oldest friends! Of course she's coming. And don't call her 'the cat girl'."

"But she's always hitting on me and you will always start role playing with her."

"Don't worry, Karkles. I won't role play with Nepeta tomorrow."

I sigh, "Fine but you owe me."

We make smalltalk while Terezi finishes her pancakes. Then we walk back into the living room.

"Want to watch a movie?" I ask

"Sure, but I get to pick, we watched The Notebook earlier."

"Fine," I say. "What do you want to watch, sorry, listen to/smell?"

"Something with dragons in it," Terezi says.

I lay down on the couch and turn on the television, "Ok movies with dragons in them on now are Dragonheart, The Neverending Story, Dragonslayer and Reign of Fire."

Terezi sits down on my chest, "Well I love Dragonheart, I don't want to listen Dragonslayer, because I like dragons, and don't want them to die. I've never heard the Neverending Story so, thats a choice and I heard Reign of Fire was okay so also a choice."

Terezi pulls out her favorite coin and starts to flip it in her hand. Flip, catch, flip, catch. My eyes follow the coin as it spins in the air.

"Heads, Neverending Story. Scratch, Reign of Fire."

The coin flips through the air and Terezi catches it and slaps it onto her arm. It comes up scratch.

"Reign of Fire it is." Terezi says and shifts on my chest.

"Terezi?" I wheeze.

She looks down at me from her position sitting on me, "Yes Karkles?"

"Could you get off me?" I cough out, "You're crushing my breathing sacks."

Terezi shifts and lays down in front of me. I put my arm around her and pull her into my chest. She turns to me and her nose twitches.

"Karkles, I thought we said we weren't going to do this anymore now that we're training to be partners."

I grumble at her and pull her closer to me. she smiles and cuddles into my chest. The movie turned out to be not that bad, if it took itself a little too seriously. Terezi liked the dragons and when the humans died. I never did figure out how it ended though. Most of the way through the movie, Terezi fell asleep in my arms so I turned off the television.

I didn't want to move, because I was enjoying the way her breath felt against my neck and the way her body was so close to mine. Also, I didn't want to wake her. Eventually, I just ended up falling asleep with my arms around Terezi.

The horrorterrors come quickly without stupor slime. Once again, I'm running through the woods, my breath coming in stutters. A creepy and surreal cobalt light shines through the trees around me. That girl's maniacal laughter fills my hear holes and makes me want to sink to my knees, but I keep running.

"Kar...kat..." I hear from somewhere to my right.

I slowly turn and see Terezi sitting against a tree. Her glasses are askew and cracked. Teal blood leaks out of numerous cuts on her body and out of her mouth. I run over to her.

"Terezi!" I gasp, out of breath from running. "What happened?"

She doesn't answer. I put my fingers on her neck. No pulse. The laughter comes closer and I turn to see Vriska walking towards me. The psychopathic bitch shakes dice in her hand.

"Is Karkat sad about his girlfriend?" She asks me mockingly.

I reach for my sickle and find it isn't in my belt. My new knife is gone also so I run at Vriska with my bare hands, prepared to beat her to death. Vriska laughs again and dissolves into smoke. I feel a piercing pain in my stomach and look down to see Terezi's cane sticking all the way through my body. My vision goes red and I begin to fall.

I wake back up on Terezi's and my couch sweating. I pull Terezi into my chest and feel her shift in her sleep. She rolls over so we are chest to chest. Her nose twitches and she smiles in her sleep.

Terezi makes a noise somewhere between a snort and a choke and snuggles closer to me. I run my hand through her hair and go back to sleep.

The horrorterrors leave me alone for the rest of the night and I wake up feeling refreshed. Terezi is still asleep tight against my chest making cooing noises. I chuckle and begin playing with her hair.

Playing with Terezi's hair is a habit that I find impossible to break. I think she thinks I have a fetish or something. What can I say? Addiction is a powerful thing. I brush stray hairs out of her eyes (not that it does any good).

Terezi's eyes slowly open and she smiles at me.

"Again, Karkat?" she asks and shakes her head, messing up her hair.

I grumble and start working again and soon, all her hair is back in place. We slowly untangle ourselves an stand up. I walk into the kitchen.

"What do you want for breakfast?" I ask.

"Pancakes," Terezi says immediately, naming her favorite food ever since that douche dave told her about them. I stick my head out from the kitchen, "Terez, we had pancakes last night for dinner."

"So?" Terezi asks.

"So," I say walking out of the kitchen and facing Terezi, "We're out of pancake mix."

"Make some more?" She asks.

"Terezi, you can't have pancakes for every meal."

"Why not?"

"Because they're unhealthy."

Terezi sticks her tongue out at me and I walk back into the kitchen. She trails behind me. I pull some cluckbeast eggs out of the refrigerator and crack them over a bowl.

"Scrambled eggs?" I ask and Terezi nods.

I pull together our breakfast and we set up the table.

"So what time are our friends coming over?" I ask

"Sometime around lunch so probably like one. We're going to need to clean up the hive before then."

I look around our hive. It's not to big. Three bedroom, three bathroom, the living room and the kitchen. All one level. It is pretty messy though.

"I'll take a shower and then help you clean," I say. "If you don't want to shower, than you should probably at least change out of yesterdays clothes."

Terezi is still wearing her zip up teal vest, beige cargo pants and her tight black Libra shirt. I still have on yesterdays Jeans and my Cancer shirt. Terezi nods in acknowledgment and smiles her toothy grin.

"Maybe I'll get into the shower with you, Nubby."

I blush crimson and stalk off to grab clothes from my room. I take my favorite pair of grey cargo pants and a new Cancer shirt and walk into the connecting bathroom. After a quick shower I change and bush my teeth, leaving my hair messy how I like it. Then I walk back into the living room. I can hear the shower running in Terezi's bathroom so I know where she is.

Taking incentive, I begin to clean up. I wash the dishes and neaten up the living room then go off to clean up my room. As I clean I start getting a bit cold so I look for my favorite sweatshirt. The black one with Cancer on it (duh). I can't seem to find it anywhere when Terezi Walks in.

She is wearing a new pair of cargo pants and my fucking sweatshirt.

"Hey, Terezi? Could I have my sweatshirt?"

"No," Terezi says. "I like it." Then she waltzes off to her room.

I swear and pull on my hero of blood hoodie. Kanaya thought we would all like hoodies to go with our aspects. It's not as nice as my Cancer sweatshirt but it'll keep me warm. I pull the hood up over my head to keep my ears warm and poke my horns through the holes.

By the time Terezi and I finish tiding up the house, it is almost noon. I sit down on the couch and put on Australia (no not the continent, the movie.) Terezi lays down with her head in my lap and opens an Alternian law book. The movie is almost finished when the doorbell rings. I turn off the T.V. and Terezi gets up to open the door.

Sollux and Feferi arrive first.

"Hey KK, Wath up?" Sollux lisps.

"Nothing Thollux," I say.

Terezi looks at me angrily. How can she do that even though she's blind? Sollux flips me off and sits down on the couch. Terezi and Feferi hug and Terezi tells me to go get some snacks. I walk into the kitchen and come back with chips and salsa just as the doorbell rings again.

I set the snacks down on the coffee table and open the door to let in Kanaya. She shakes my hand formally and hugs Terezi then goes to sit on the couch with Thullux, I mean, Sollux and Feferi. Aradia arrives next greeting me and Terezi nicely before sitting down in one of the three armchairs in the living room, the couch now being full.

The doorbell rings again and I walk over to get it. I open the door to find a short girl with a green coat and blue hat on shaped like a cat.

"Karkat!" she screeches and throws herself at me, wrapping her arms and legs around my torso.

"Ah! Nepeta! Get off!" I yell stumbling backwards.

Nepeta babbles at me while I try to pry her off my chest. Eventually, I succeed and place her in one of the armchairs. I glare at Terezi. Then realize that doing that was pointless. I walk over to stand next to Terezi and smack her shoulder.

"Thanks for inviting the cat girl," I mutter out of the corner of my mouth.

"Don't be so grumpy and don't call her the cat girl." She whispers back.

I look around the room, then at the clock. 1:15. I'm hungry.

"I'm gonna go make some lunch," I say.

"Ooooh!" Nepeta says. "I'll help!"

We walk into the kitchen. I turn to Nepeta.

"Go find out what everyone wants. If Terezi says pancakes, whack her for me, okay?"

Nepeta nods and runs out. I pull out bread and start to make myself a sandwich. I hear Terezi yell "Ow!" and smile to myself. Nepeta walks back in.

"Everyone wants sandwiches," She proceeds to tell me how everyone wants their lunch.

We make the sandwiches together, all the while Nepeta stands a bit to close to me and is a bit to touchy feeley for my taste. We finish up quickly and carry out the plates. Everyone eats their sandwiches and talks.

"Tho howth the training going?" Sollux asks Terezi and me. "Working like a mathine yet?"

"It's going well," Terezi answers. "On the weekends when we don't have legal or combat classes Karkles and I run drills in the woods out back. We're almost ready to become a real law team."

On Alternia, Threshecutioners and Legislacerators work together to hunt down prosecute and then execute criminals. Terezi and I have been going to school for this for almost two sweeps now. We graduate in a few weeks.

"When's graduation?" Aradia asks.

"In a two weeks," I tell her.

"Hey KK, want to take a walk? I want to thow you thomething," Sollux says.

"Sure," I say and we head out of the hive and into the woods.

We walk for a few minutes before Sollux begins talking.

"Tho, how are you and Terezi doing?" Sollux asks me.

I scratch the back of my head and shove my hands into the pocket of my hoodie.

"Its... complicated," I say. "We said we were gonna stop being matesprites when we began training but you know how flirty she is and well... I think I may have... hey wait, it's none of your business!"

Sollux scowls, "Drop the act, KK. Just tell me."

"Well it's just that... I think I may... have human emotions for her?"

Sollux stops walking and turns to me.

"Wait, you mean like that love thing? Theriously man?"

I shrug and bury my hands deeper into my pocket.

"Okay well thince you are kind of like the romanthe expert I thought I would athk you about thith. AA or CC?"

"AA or CC what?" I ask.

We start walking again.

"You know, KK, as my matethprite."

"You're asking me, with my fucked up redrom life?"

Now it was Sollux's turn to shrug.

"Well with all your thupid girl movieth I figured you might have more of a clue than me!"

"Dude, my redrom life is down the tubes! I don't even know where the fuck I stand with Terezi anymore. So my advice to you will have to be just go with whatever your beat pump tells you to," I say.

"KK," Sollux says. "That might be the thapiest thing you have ever thaid. Thankth man."

"Yeah whatever," I grumble.

We are walking back to the house when Sollux speaks again.

"What about Nepeta?" He asks.

"Don't even fucking start with me about Nepeta, Sollux," I say. "I know she likes me, I don't reciprocate in the smallest fucking way. Tell her that I just want to be friends if she asks you."

Sollux shrugs again, "I was just asking, no need to get angry."

We finish the walk back to the house in silence and walk in on the girls doing some weird role play thing.

"Terezi!" I yell and she freezes.

"Yes, Karkat?" She asks sweetly.

"Ohhhh!" Nepeta says. "Karkat can join in!"

"Fuck no!" I scream. "I don't want to join your stupid role playing games! And Terezi! what the fuck did we talk about last night?"

"Umm, pancakes and movies?" Terezi asks innocently.

I growl and sprawl down in an armchair. Terezi sits down on the arm and licks my cheek. I push her head away.

"Oh come on, Karcrab, they were just having a little fun," Feferi says.

"Yeah," Kanaya interjects. "No need to fly off the handle like that."

"Whatever," I mutter, starting to feel pretty bad. Dammit! I hate past me.

The girls start to talk again while Sollux snuggles with Feferi and Aradia looks on jealous.

Eventually, Kanaya has to leave and the rest of them slowly trickle after her until the only trolls left are Terezi, Nepeta and me. Nepeta yawns and stretches.

"I had better go," She says.

We get up to say goodbye. She hugs Terezi and turns to me. I hold out my hand to shake but she dodges around it and hugs me, then gives me a quick peck on the cheek. Winking, she scurries out the door.

Terezi rubs her sightless eyes and turns toward the clock. She sniffs the glowing green letters. Six o'clock.

"We should eat dinner and get some rest, we have advanced teams combat level twelve tomorrow from eight in the morning to two."

Terezi makes us dinner and we eat quietly then retire to our respective rooms. I lay awake in my bed for an hour before getting up and grabbing my beat up song disk. An old disk about three inches tall and wide and a centimeter thick dominated by a touch screen. I plug in a scuffed pair of grey cans and scroll through my songs, eventually just putting it on shuffle.

The Offspring come on and I lay down and close my eyes. The different metal, rock and punk songs calm until Bleed It Out by Linkin Park comes on. I smile. I sort of own this song ironically, as a joke on my blood color. Slowly, I start to slip into sleep when the song changes. My Life Would Suck Without You by Kelly Clarkson. I blush. I bought this song at six sweeps. It reminds me of Terezi. Listening to this song, I eventually fall asleep.
