An outbreak of zombies fill the streets of Alternia. Who will be able to lead a group of trolls to go stop them? Will your leader be a highblood? Lowblood? Human? Cherub? We will find out soon enough. For now, let's take our focus on Karkat Vantas, the lowest blood in Alternia. His strife specibi is a sickle. He currently has four other trolls and three humans at his hive.
"WHY ARE WE ALL HERE AT MY FUCKING HIVE?" Karkat yells.
He scratches his spiked black hair, tapping his nubby red, yellow, and orange horns. A young troll sniffs the air, her red glasses cover her blind red eyes.
"C4LM DOWN, K4RK3LS." She pauses, "1TS NOT TH3 3ND OF TH3 WORLD."
"HAVE YOU LOOKED OUTSIDE YOUR HIVE, PYROPE?!" He screams, "THERE ARE FUCKING ZOMBIES WALKING THE STREETS."
"Terezi Is Right Karkat" another young troll says, fixing her Vergo symbol shirt, "You Need To Calm Down A Few Degrees"
He looks at her, then back to Terezi, and then back to Kanaya.
"GOD, I JUST SAY MY MOIRAIL'S SOBER FACE," Karkat hissed, "HE LOOKED LIKE A ZOMBIE WITH THE DIFFERET COLORS OF BLOOD ON HIS FUCKING CLOWN FACE!'
"y0u are n0t the 0nly 0ne wh0 is w0rring, kk." A yellow blood troll says, his hand touching the troll next to him.
"all 0f us are as w0rried as you, karkat," she says, "i kn0w that y0u are w0rried ab0ut every0nes safety, but y0u are n0t the 0nly 0ne. there are s0me tr0lls that are dead, they are pr0bably walking the streets right n0w. 0ur ancest0rs, nepeta, equius, tavr0s, eridan, feferi. Wh0 kn0ws wh0 else. but that's why we need t0 keep 0ur heads, 0r we are g0ing t0 end up like them."
He looks at the four trolls.
"Aradia's right, we can't keep acting like this," one of the blonde humans says, "if we do, who knows what will happen to us."
Kanaya brushes back her hair, looking at her matesprit.
"c'mon vantas, we will get out of this alive." The other blonde human says, brushing is red cape to the back.
"daves right." The black hair boy said.
Karkat looks at all of them, feeling something.
"GET OUT ALIVE SOUNDS LIKE A PRETTY FUCKING WAY TO SURVIVE, STRIDER." Karkat says with a little chuckle in his voice.
"S33? TH4TS TH3 K4RK4T 1 KNOW!" Terezi smiles.
"NOW THE QUESTION IS," Karkat pauses, sitting down, "HOW ARE WE ALL GOING TO MAKE IT OUT ALIVE?"
"we'll figure s0mething 0ut." Aradia says, calmly.
"I GUESS WE ARE NOW A FUCKING TEAM." Karkat mumbles.
"Indeed" Kanaya says, looking back at Karkat.
"we are going to be the best fucking team ever!" John cheers.
"john's correct on that one." Dave laughs.
"We will all get through this alive, Karkat," Rose pauses, "I promise."
"d0n't w0rry kk," Sollux pauses, pointing at everyone, "we will always be here f0r y0u."
"W3 W1LL N3V3R L34V3!" Terezi goes up to Karkat and hugs him.
He hugs her back.
"WE WILL." He nods.
Aradia looks around, there seemed to be a human missing.
"wait, where's jade?" she asks.
Dave turns his head. So does John. Rose looks at them confused.
"What?" Rose asks, "Where is Jade?"
Kanaya looks at the two boys, gasping. Rose turns to Kanaya.
"What?" she pauses, "What?!"
Rose runs to Kanaya, taking her by the hands. Kanaya closes her eyes, and then opens them back up. Everyone, except John and Dave, look at the troll.
"She Is One Of Them" Kanaya softly says.
Rose's tears come out of her eyes, she looks at her.
"No, she can't be."
She falls to her knees, burying her head into Kanaya's chest. The tears start to soak Kanaya's shirt. She puts her arms around Rose, one on her back, and one petting her hair.
"I Am Sorry Rose" Kanaya cries, "I Am Sorry"
Karkat looks at the two, and then he turns his head away from the two matesprits.
"WHY IS THIS GETTING TO ME?" He pauses, "FUCK, JADE IS ONE OF THEM? AND SHE IS GOD TIER?!"
Rose looks up at Kanaya, smiling. Kanaya gives her a small smile in return. Rose then focuses on Karkat.
"We are going to need a leader." She says, whipping away her tears.
Karkat then turns to look at her.
"WHAT?" He asks.
"A leader," she pauses, looking around, "someone who can lead us to survival."
Soon, the attention of everyone is drawn to Karkat.
"WHY THE HELL ARE YOU ALL STARING AT ME?" He yells.
"K4RK3LS, YOU H4V3 TO B3 TH3 L34D3R." Terezi sniffs the air, smelling the different flavors of blood in the room.
"ME?" He pauses, "WHY WOULD YOU FUCKING WANT A SHITTY LEADER, LIKE ME?"
"You Are Not A Shitty Leader Karkat" Kanaya pauses, holding Rose's hand in her own, "We Need You Please"
"yes karkat." John encourages.
Soon everyone else nods their head. Karkat smirks a little.
"YOU DON'T GIVE UP," He pauses, "DON'T YOU, LALONDE?"
Rose gives him a questionable look.
"I WILL BE THE LEADER," He looks at everyone directly in the eyes, "I PROMISE I WILL KEEP US SAFE."
Everyone smiled.
"Y4Y!" Terezi cheers.
Kanaya's smile turns into a frown, feeling something coming closer to the hive. She clenches her left fist, inching her right hand to her tube of green lipstick.
"hell yes, we have a leader, aa!" Sollux cheers along.
"yes, yes we d0, s0llux." Araida answers back.
All, but Rose, didn't notice the stressed look on Kanaya's face, and her hand reaching for her lipstick.
"Kanaya?" asks Rose, worriedly.
"They Found Us" she whispers to herself.
"What?" Rose pauses, bending down to Kanaya, "What's got you so worried?"
Kanaya looks at into those purple eyes of hers.
"The Dead" Kanaya whispers, her hand pulls out the tube of green lipstick.
Rose looks at the lipstick, she backs away, gasping. Kanaya stands up and the lipstick turns into the chainsaw.
"I Will Hold Them Off" Kanaya says, "Get Everyone Out Of Here"
Rose looks worrying at Kanaya.
"Kanaya!" Rose yells.
Sollux and Aradia go next to Rose, Karkat looks at Kanaya worried, Terezi pulls him away, Dave and John try to hold back on Rose.
"KANAYA!" Karkat yells.
"Do Not Look Back" she says, "I Will Be Alright"
"Kanaya, don't." Rose says.
"If I Get Out Of This Alive" Kanaya pauses, "I Will Meet You At Johns Hive"
"Kanaya!" Rose struggles in the grip of her friends.
"c'mon rose, she will be alright." Dave says, pulling Rose back.
Kanaya starts the engine of the chainsaw, turning her head to look back at the group.
"B3 S4F3 K4N4Y4." Terezi says.
Kanaya nods her head, watching Rose's worried face as she disappears. Kanaya turns her head back, facing Eridan. His rotting gray skin was coming apart, his purple blood came out of his mouth.
"kan, kill me." He says.
"Eridan You Are Still" Kanaya starts.
"kan, kill me!" Eridan yells, "i can't control myself."
"Eridan I Can Not Kill You"
"just do it, landdwweller!" He hisses.
Kanaya takes her chainsaw and swings it, cutting Eridan's head off. She turns around seeing Nepeta on her back.
"No Get Off Of Me" Kanaya struggles to get the olive green troll off.
"This Is It I Am Going To Become One Of Them" Kanaya thought.
Finally, Kanaya gathered up the strength to pull Nepeta off her back. Nepeta's claws dig deep, through her shirts, and through his skin. Kanaya couldn't help but to let out a cry. She falls to the ground, looking up at the zombies, crowding around her.
"Get away from her!" A voice says from the back.
The zombie all part in half to reveal the Dolorosa, Kanaya's ancestor.
"We will spare you for now," she says, looking down at Kanaya, "you are not going to be so lucky the next time."
The Dolorosa starts to walk away, her black dress is torn. Kanaya watches as the other zombies follow after. She turns and goes to the teleporter to go to John's hive. Kanaya presses the button before she passed out, due to the lack of blood going to her head.
