Distance is irrelevant; Chapter 1: Innocence lost
WARNING: RATED M, for character death, blood, gore, suicidal thoughts and actions, self-harm, and other seriously fucked up shit, this story is not for the faint of heart.
However, there is going to be fluff, and probably smut later.
Disclaimer: I do not own Homestuck, or its characters, Hussie does, the plot and my OC belong to me though.
I am Lilith Maryam, today is the day I am officially one solar sweep old, or, in other words, 2.17 human years. This morning is just like any other, I wake up early and run to my parent's room to wake them up as well. I am unsurprised to find that my mother, Kanaya Maryam, is already awake. I jump into the bed with my father, Karkat Vantas, he awakens with a loud "OOF!"
while I exclaim "it's time to get up daddy!", my mother giggles in the background.
"Yes Dear, I Believe She May Be Right."
My father responds with "UGH, FINE!"
"yay!" I say.
"BUT ONLY BECAUSE IT'S YOU'RE BIRTHDAY."
Not far in the future my parents and I have just finished breakfast and I went out back to play. A few hours pass and I see my unofficial uncle Gamzee's clown car pull into our driveway and he exits the vehicle. I watched as he disappears around the corner of our hive. I hear my father answer the door, "OH, HEY GAMZEE…DUDE, WHAT'S UP WI-"
"honk"
"ARE YOU…"
"HONK!"
"OKAY? YOU'RE SC- ", my father's last words are cut off as I hear a sickening crunch then a dull thud, a sensation of absolute dread sweeps through my body chilling me to the core.
"Dear?" I hear my mother call out, "Are You Alright?", I then hear a plate shatter followed by rapid footsteps as my mother rushes out the back door towards me. "Sweetie We Should Leave." she says to me as calmly as she can, I look at her on the verge of tears and nod, she scoops me up and starts running, telling me everything's going to be okay, but I don't believe her.
After what must have been hours of running, we finally stop to rest in a cave formation. As my mother sets me down I ask, "daddy's not coming, is he mommy…"
After a long moment of silence she says "No Honey, He Isn't.", the two of us then spend a long while crying.
