Rejection Stings
"Wwhat did you just say?" Eridan croaked out in disbelief, praying that he heard his moirail incorrectly. Feferi sighed and shook her head, trying to be firm and forward. Although she was clearly upset about this new development as well. "I said, t)(at me and you can no longer be glubbing moirails anymore!" She cried out, goggles fogging up with her fresh tears. Her soft eyes shining apologetically. "Eridan... I am so sorry, but I cannot put up wit)( your crap anymore... Moirails are supposed to look out for each other, but you )(ave never done anyt)(ing for me! I am always keeping you out of trouble... And you get into so glubbing muc)( of it!" Feferi was outright sobbing now, probably at the shocked, distraught look on Eridan's face. His heart was being torn by her ever word. Eridan and Feferi were moirails, or destined friends. It is one of the four quadrants of Alternian romance. But now she was leaving him... Just like his former kismesis Vriska did only a short time ago. Now, his quadrants were empty... "But Fef, we havve alwways been moirails! Wwhy must that change noww?" Eridan said rushedly, "Perhaps, you are not feeling wwell. Yes, that must be it! Fef wwould you like me to get you a drink of wwater? Then we can rethink this!" Feferi looked grimly to Eridan, shocked at his panic in the situation, "No... Sorry Eridan, but I feel perfectly fine, and I am confident about my decision..." She then turned on her heels and started to walk away. "Ha, Fef! I see wwhat you did there! Now that wwe are no longer moirails, can we become something a little more flushed? You knoww, maybe reddish? I know I feel that wway about you!" Grasping the last thread of hope there was, desperately hoping for a chance at matespritship. Feferi turned her head and cast him a despairing, pitying glance. "Eridan, please don't make t)(is )(arder t)(en it )(as to be..." She whispered sorrowfully and she turned to leave again. "Bye Eridan... We can still be friends... Just not)(ing in the quadrants, okay?" She said hopefully as she strode further away. She seemed to be trying to redeem her usual cheerful, bubbly spirit. "Of course Fef!" He yelled back happy at seeing another chance with his former moirail, "I wwill alwways be here for you! Platonically of course!" He yelled after her, heart sinking at that last part. She turned back towards him and smiled, "T)(anks for not being angry wit)( me..." She muttered softly. But how can I not be angry? Eridan thought suddenly, but then widened his eyes. Where did that thought come from? Only later did he discover her to be hanging around with Sollux. That mischievious bastard... Eridan thought bitterly, As soon as Fef leaves me, he comes in for the kill, or so to say. Eridan fixes his most furious glare upon the Gemini. How dare he woo her now of all times? "What the hell are you glaring about, creep?" Sollux snapped at him from across the room. "Are you angry that I got your girl? Stupid... She left you!" He then shouted at him with his insufferable lisp. Each word pierced his heart like a sharpened dagger, reopening wounds that never completely healed. "Shut up! Just... Shut the fuck up!" Eridan roars at the other troll. "Oh," Sollux taunted childishly, "Did I hit a nerve, fish breath?" Eridan stepped forward, grasping the wand that Kanaya made him in his pocket tightly. "Care to repeat that, Sollux?" He whispered darkly, fury blazing in his eyes like a vicious fire, ready to burn whoever came close enough. He was beyond angry now, he was simply furious. That low-life, arrogant, land dweller! How dare he taunt me like that! Sollux saw the fury in the others eyes and he simply smirks, satisfied that he managed to infuriate the other so easily, "Sure, fish face, what do you want me to repeat? The part where I taunt you? Or about how Feferi hates you now?" Eridan snarled and leapt at Sollux flashing his wand out. Sollux's red and blue eyes flash and both shoot powerful beams at each other. Solid was renowned for his powerful telekinetic abilities, but Eridan's wand was stronger, and it's force sent Sollux flying backwards. He hit the wall and fell to the ground, unconscious, with his disgusting mustard colored blood staining the floor. His glasses fell to the floor, shattering and revealing blind eyes. Eridan smirked in satisfaction, but still felt the anger. Strangely, it had not faded. Even though his revenge, albeit satisfying revenge, he still needed to lash out some more. Feferi gave him a shocked look. He simply glared back at her, feeling a dark, corrupt burning within him, scorching all rational sense. Her face darkened and she reached for her trident, angry at Eridan's betrayal. She was good friends with Sollux, and now he was very injured, or perhaps even dead. She must fight for him. And in the midst of Eridan's rage he did not even realize that he shot a white laser from his wand, through Feferi's stomach. She dropped to the ground gasping, her royal fushia blood spreading everywhere. Feferi slowly shut her eyes, shocked at what Eridan had done. She thought him to be better then this. Then, Kanaya, angry that he killed her friend, whipped out her chainsaw, leaping at Eridan angrily. He barely even turned before the other troll was slumped to the ground also. With a similar gaping wound in her chest, and with jade green blood pooling beneath her. Eridan then left the room, leaving a certain Cancer gaping at the horrible scene that just unfolded. I killed my beloved Feferi... He thought to himself in anguish, very soon after the act had been committed. How could I do such a thing... Perhaps it was the rejection that fed the fire... Perhaps it was my envious feelings when I saw her with Sollux... But whatever the reason, it has happened, and I can not do anything to reverse it.
