Months in the future of Alternia, Karkat continue walking to a long path to a palace on the other side. But something is coming. He quickly hides in a bush from being notice. But it just two figures walking in the path to the other direction. He peeks to see who the two figures are. They look familiar… they both are seadweller with jewelry everywhere. It's Feferi and Eridan! Why are they doing here?
"ERIDAN! FEFERI!" Karkat shouted.
"WHY THE FUCK YOU TWO DOING HERE? IT'S TOO DANGEROUS."
They didn't response but stop walking. They turn to Karkat and he sees their eyes completely yellow-orange. Then finally:
"destroy trespasser," Eridan shouted.
" D-ESTROY TR-EPASS-ER!" Feferi repeated.
"SHIT." Karkat said.
To the present, Karkat Vantas is chatting with his friend, Sollux Captor.

Karkat begins setting up for the upcoming meeting. He sends everyone a message except Sollux about this important meeting. But he realized about the time he and his friends were cursed from the Nitemare's powers. Especially to Terezi Pyrope, his Matesprit.
In the past before the Nitemare was around, Terezi and Karkat were together in his hive. They were talking about reading their ancestors' biography .
"SO I DON'T GIVE A FUCK." Karkat said.
"I DON'T CARE ABOUT MY ANCESTOR, HE JUST A BIG FUCKASS WHO WANTED ATTAUTION."
"H3H3" Terezi laughed.
"WHAT'S SO FUNNY?"
"NOTH1NG R34LLY
1TS JUST YOU N33D TO UND3RST4ND M3" she said.
"FOR WHAT, TEREZI. YOU TOLD ME YOU WANTED ME TO RESPECT MY ANCESTOR TO FOR NO FUCKING REASON AND LEARNED HIS BIOGRAPHY. "
"L3T M3 F1N1SH D4MN :[

TH3Y D1D DO 4N 1MPORT4NT ROL3 TO M4K3 SUR3 US D3C3D3NTS TO 3X1ST"
"SIGH FINE. I'LL READ MY ANCESTOR STUPID BIOGRAPHY SINCE EVERYONE WILL READ THEIR. BUT HOW COME EVERYONE GOT TO READ IT?"
"B3C4US3 3V3RYON3 KNOWS 1T TH3 D4Y OF TH3 12TH KN1GHT D3F34T3D

HOW TH3 H3LL YOU D1DNT KNOW TH4T :?"
"NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS, TEREZI. IT MY DAMN CHOICE."
":]"
During the Nitemare saga, Karkat tried his best to stop The Nitemare. At a second Karkat tried to strike, the Nitemare turned while holding a body.
"HAHA!" he laughed.
"One move or I'll kill her."
Karkat stopped, he can't strike him. He dropped his weapon and then his knees. He began to cry.
"PLEASE," Karkat said.
"PLEASE DON'T DO IT. TAKE ME INSTEAD."
The Nitemare laughed again.
"HAHA! ill love to… but i change my mind."
"NO PLEASE. JUST LET HER GO!"
But it's too late, blood splattered on Karkat's sweater and on the Nitemare.
"You called yourself a leader? How disappointed. Now you'll never get them back!
The Nitemare threw the body in front of Karkat and walked away. Walking passed 10 other dead bodies. He can't believe what happened to his friends, now he got no one. He screamed on the top of his lungs saying: YOU FUCKASS!
But suddenly Karkat opened his eyes and looked around his surroundings. It was just a dream, a nightmare to be mistaking. But with relief, the Nitemare wasn't around.
"DAMN." Karkat said.
"I'M FUCKING CURSED."
After the Nitemare's defeat, Terezi told Karkat about her experience from the cursed.
"WAIT YOU GOT CURSED TOO?" Karkat asked.
"OF COURS3 K4RK4T, 3V3RYON3 GOTT3N TH3 F1RST ST4G3" Terezi explained.
"TH3 N1T3M4R3S SP1R1T RO4M 4ROUND 4LL OF OUR H1V3S 4ND G4V3 US TH3 F1RST ST4G3 CURS3

"HOW THE FUCK YOU KNOW ALL OF THIS?"
"4R4D14 TOLD M3 TH3 L4ST P4G3S OF TH3 BOOK SH3 W4S R34D1NG"
"I THOUGHT SHE LOST THE BOOK."
"NOT R34LLY, SH3 GOT R1D OF 1T 4FT3R SH3 F1N1SH3D 1T 4ND TOLD M3 TH3 3ND1NG S1NC3 1 C4NT R34D 4NY OF THOS3 SH1T"
"YEAH THAT'S TRUE. BUT I'M FUCKING GLAD THE NITEMARE IS NO LONGER EXIST."
Terezi nodded but uncertain if his spirit will come back.
"SO HOW WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE OF THE CURSE, TEREZI? IT WASN'T THAT BAD WAS IT?" Karkat asked.
"1T 4 S3CR3T WH1CH ONLY M3 TO KNOW" Terezi answered.
"WHAT? SO WHAT THE POINT TELLING ME THEN?"
"L1K3 1 S41D, 1T 4 S3CR3T WH1CH ONLY 1 KNOW ;]"
Karkat don't understand why Terezi isn't telling him. Is she hiding something?
Back to the present, everyone is in this mandatory meeting, but anyone didn't understand why there is a meeting. When everyone went inside to Karkat's hive, he speaks.
"ALRIGHT FUCKASSES, YOU GUYS WERE WONDERING WHY THERE'S EVEN A MEETING TODAY." Karkat said.
"BUT WE DID MET TWO DANGEROUS ENEMIES IN ALTERNIA. SO IN THIS MEETING WE'RE GOING TO TALK ABOUT OUR EXPERIENCE OF OUR ADVENTURE. AND IF YOU THINK YOU DON'T HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE THROUGHOUT FOR THE PAST FUCKING MONTH, WELL TOUGH LUCK ASSHOLE BECAUSE I KNOW WE ALL HAVE AN EXPERIENCE ABOUT IT. SO FIRST OFF WILL BE ARADIA."
A girl named Aradia step forward to Karkat and told her adventure.
"bef0re i release the nitemare fr0m his hive" Aradia said.
"s0llux and i was entering t0 the sealed hive 0f the the nitemare
i came there s0 i kn0w what happen t0 his spirit thats all
but the nitemare s0meh0w knew we were c0ming t0 free him and did his thing
he gave me the first stage 0f the curse and i had a dream 0f the b0nes i had c0llected were transf0rmed t0 a huge m0nster
it was chasing me until i had n0 way t0 g0 until i saw s0llux
i th0ught i was safe but the m0nster went past me and tried t0 destr0y him instead 0f me
and then when i tried t0 sh0ut his name it was t00 late
i finally w0ke up fr0m that nightmare i never th0ught the nightmare was g0ing t0 end like that"
Sollux looks down from the story he just heard, but something about the nightmare he had was worse than Aradia's.
"ALRIGHT, NEXT'S WILL BE TAVROS." Karkat said as a bull shaped horn troll named Tavros steps forward.
"wHEN, uHH, i HAD THE REASONABILITY TO TAKE THE NECKLACE OF RONICA EGRAHC," Tavros said.
"sHE GOT THE UPPER HAND AND WANTED ME TO WEAR, uHH, iT WHICH YOU TOLD ME NOT TO, bUT i COULDN'T EXIST TO HER POWER, i HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO GIVE UP AND WEAR IT, bUT DURING HER PROGRESS, uHH, sHE SOUND VERY SAD OF NOTICING SHE'S THE ONLY LIME-BLOODED TO EXIST, i TOLD HER SHE DON'T HAD TO DO THIS AND START OVER, sHE JUST SO LONELY ALL THESE SWEEPS WITHOUT, uHH, nO ONE RESPECTING HER AND FORGET HER MISTAKES, sHE STILL IN HER NECKLACE BUT i DECIDED TO KEEP IT,"
"KEEP IT?" Karkat said.
"WHY THE FUCK YOU WANT TO KEEP IT? SHE ALMOST KILLED US!"
"i KNOW, bUT SHE NEEDS HELP AND i LIKE TO HELP HER TO BE HER OLD SELF AGAIN,"
"TAVROS, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND. SHE'LL NEVER GOING TO BE HER OWN SELF INSIDE OF THAT SHITTY NECKLACE."
Tavros starting to twits and his brown iris starts to change to lime. Karkat is now talking to Ronica.
"wHo yOu tELLINg sHITTy." Ronica said.
"yOURe tHe sHIt hEAd wHo wANTEd tAVROs to do tHe dANGEROUs wORk."
"RONICA, GET THE FUCK OUT OF TAVROS' BODY."
"no yOURe nOt tHe bOSs of me. im wAy oLDEr tHAn yOu."
"YOU'RE STILL 5 SWEEPS."
"nOPe. I wAs lIVINg in my nECKLACe fOr 5 cENTURIEs wHICh mEANs im oLDEr tHAn yOu. òu όV"
"FUUUUUUUUUUUU!"
Karkat continues screaming from the technical error he misses. Ronica laughs at his failure, but at the same time she's feeling old at the moment.
After everyone introduced their experiences, everyone left for the day except Terezi. Karkat didn't hear about her experience for the past month. But outside of the hive, Tavros and Ronica are leaving for the day until they were stop by Vriska Serket.
"Heeeeeeeey guys." Vriska said.
"oH HEY vRISKA," Tavros responded.
"sUp" Ronica responded.
"Where you guys going? ::::)"
"hOMe fOr yOUr iMFORMATIOn
tAVROs wAs gOINg to tELl me hOw to pLAy tHIs gAMe cALLEd fIDUSPAWn uNTIl yOu sHOw up ὸn ό"
"Oh i'm sorry to interrupt your conversation guys, 8ut i was trying to say we should sneak up on terezi and karkat's conversation."
"i DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A GOOD IDEA, vRISKA, rONICA TOLD ME LISTEN TO PEOPLE'S CONVERSATION IS RUDE, uHH, aND i SHOULDN'T DO IT,"
"Oh coooooooome on tavros, you own me from saving you from ronica. I don't understand why you trust her from all the dam8ge she did."
"vRISKa sTOp aCTTINg lIKe a bITCh. i lEARNEd a lESSOn tHAt tHEREs sTILl hOPe fOr me to tURNs tHINGs aROUNd fROm eVERTHINg i dId . so sHUt up"
"Tavros you don't have to listen to her, she did control your 8ody after all."
"uHH,"
"tAVROs dONt lISTEn to hEr sHe tHe oNe bEEn cONTROLLINg yOu bEFORe we mEt"
"uHH, mY HEAD HURTS"
"Fine, i'll go myself. See ya l8r, dorks."
Vriska walks back to the hive, Tavros tries to stop her but she ignores him.
"vRISKA,," Tavros thought.
"dONt wORRy tAVROs at lEASt yOu wONt gEt in tROUBLe" Ronica said.
"yEAH YOUR RIGHT, lET JUST GO,"
Back in the hive, Karkat and Terezi are having a conversation while Vriska peeks in the window. But she sees they're having an argument.
"TEREZI, HOW COME YOU NEVER SAID ANYTHING IN THE MEETING?" Karkat asked.
"B3C4US3 1 KN3W YOU W4NT3D TH3 S3CR3T 1 TOLD YOU B3FOR3" Terezi answered.
"IT'S OK IF IT A FUCKING SECRET, YOU CAN TELL ME."
"NO W4Y:[
1F YOU W4NT MY S3CR3T SO B4D, YOU H4V3 TO 34RN 1T"
"EXACTLLY HOW THE FUCK AM I GOING TO EARN YOUR SECRET?"
"H3H3H3
S1MPL3, WH3N TH3 T1M3 COM3S 1LL T3LL YOU"
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN 'WHEN THE TIME COMES'?"
"OH YOU W1LL KNOW ;]"
As Terezi went out of the hive, Vriska is confused from the conversation. She about to walk out and go home, until Terezi found her. Vriska was spooks when she saw her.
"H3Y VR1SK4" Terezi said.
"Whoa don't scare me like that terezi. ::::(" Vriska said.
"WH4T 4R3 YOU DO1NG H3R3 :?"
"Oh nothing thought i saw something shiny and shit."
Terezi gives Vriska a suspicious look thinking she wasn't here for treasures. She walks away to go home while Vriska does the same.
In Karkat's hive, he keeps thinking about what Terezi said. He still doesn't understand exactly "when the time comes".
"'WHEN THE TIME COMES'" Karkat thought.
"YEAH RIGHT; SHE JUST SAID THAT TO GET AWAY FROM IT. DAMN."
Karkat went upstairs to his recuperacoon to sleep for the night. As he turns off his lights, his hive starts to shape like a crystal. In a dark room with fading lights on the ceiling, there are like billion little crystals hanging but only 12 are glowing. As for the rest are like dead light bulbs; only one is frisking on and off. As a woman with a black dress is walking to the dark room, which the frisking crystal stops like it doesn't want her to know. The woman looks up at the 12 crystals; she reaches to the 13th crystal with her longest finger and touches it. Suddenly a dark smoke coming from the crystal spooks her and immediately takes her finger away. She then smiles. An armor guard runs to her and kneels.
"My lady," He said.
"The time turn tables are ready to run. Where is the location you wish to go?"
"To lterni " she smiled.
