Chapter 1: New _
Your name is Jasmine DeCastel. It is your 15th birthday today and you want to play the Sburb game that your father shipped over to you last month. You hear a high-pitched girlish scream and give a blank stare to the door. You realize your sister has been infatuated with the Twilight series ever since she found out about it from her friends. What a waste of time. She could be doing more productive things such as…huh. You're dumbstruck on what a little 6-year-old girl like her could do other than watch sappy sci-fi drama series. You focus your attention elsewhere, anywhere perhaps.
GET EASEL.
You laugh at the command. Like your gonna paint on such a day. That was hilarious, truly.
OPEN STARRY CHEST, PERHAPS?
You rush over to the afore-mentioned chest and frantically shake your head. You can't risk your half-a-billion dollars being stolen. Your adoptive father will have your ass on a platter. No matter how nice he seems, if he's pissed he will kick your ass.
WELL, WHAT CAN I SAY?
You shrug as a response to that question. Many things, none of which include your chest or easel.
PESTER CHUMS.
You could talk a bit before starting up the game. You hope your real-life friend is on. She's a handful but lovable, you suppose. You sit down and log into your account, CrystalChaos, and your 'quirk' is very much understandable.
PESTER REAL-LIFE CHUM.
You roll your eyes at the command, since you're already beginning to do so. You double-click tealTerror and the familiar white text screen pops up.
CC: hey allison WHATCHA UP to lately?
TT: noth1ng much you?
CC: um I'd SAY PARTYIN my motherfuckin ASS OFF
TT: ok4y ok4y s3ttl3 down w1ll y4? your bd4y pr3s3nt 1s on 1ts w4y now.
CC: kay thanks LITTLE MISS Allison
A large, wrapped present appears behind you. You turn around in your chair and the box breaks open revealing a holographic message. It reads, 'GOOD LUCK W1TH TH3 R3ST OF YOUR Y34RS!' You giggle and roll your eyes. That silly little girl has SUCH a Terezi muse.
START SBURB.
You turn back around and hit start. A warning pops up saying 'WARNING: COULD CAUSE ACTUAL DEATH OF ONESELF!' Do you care? Of course not. You're playing by yourself, good lord. You click continue and all of a sudden, a black orb appears beside you, like a kernelsprite. It forms a, deadly, figure and your face pales as you scramble for the door. You try to scream but it's trapped inside your throat. By the time you got to the door, the figure grabbed and threw you into a wall, making your broken limbs fall onto your mattress near the wall. The familiar figure, that you identify as Jack Noir, walks up to you, holds up his sword, and plunges it right through your heart. Your consciousness fades and you awake on Prospit for some reason. You float out your window, dazed. Your eyes widened as your finally remembered something. You were killed by Jack Noir. You awake again, but seem to be in another dimension of some sort.
LOOK AROUND.
You do just that and see nothing but a starry sky for miles to come. Salty tears beg to let free, you hang your head and shiver from the gradual decline of warmth in your body.
CRY FORM ANGER/CONFUSION/SORROW.
Those tears hit your shivering lap with a soft plip. The starry sky around you distorts and becomes the space in where the meteor the trolls, Rose, and Dave should be. You look around for the meteor, not expecting to find it since it's traveling the speed of light or faster and you're standing around like a dumb duck. You finally locate the meteor and float over to it. It seems to be stopped in mid-travel so it's easy to land on it. A familiar troll calmly walks up to you and starts a conversation.
?: I Don't Believe I Have Seen You Here Before Who Might You Be?
JASMINE: um i'm JASMINE AND you're kanaya
KANAYA: Correct.
JASMINE: i've come TO APOLOGIZE for the POTENTIAL DAMAGE i have CAUSED. I was reckless WHEN MY god tier POWERS AWAKENED.
KANAYA: You Seem Sincere In Your Apologetic Response To My Comment Shouldn't You Talk To Our Other Specialist, Rose Lalonde, With The Matter At Hand?
JASMINE: isn't she BURYING HER nose in HER BOOK right now?
KANAYA: I Highly Doubt That She Isn't Doing So Though She Will Think Of A Way To Deal With You For The Time Being.
JASMINE: please kanaya YOU MAKE my arrival SOUND LIKE something horrid
The Rainbow Drinker leads you to a transportalizer and you follow her through it. This particular one happens to lead you to the library where Dave, your crush, and Rose are. Dave seems to notice both of your presences but Rose doesn't. He asks who you are, but you blush and hide behind Kanaya, your patron troll, for support. Dave nudges Rose, making her look up at Kanaya and I. She walks up to you, starting a conversation.
ROSE: Who might this be, Kanaya?
KANAYA: This Girl Has Just Arrived Here Her Name Is Jasmine
ROSE: Well, if you would tell her to stop hiding behind you, we could do something.
KANAYA: What? Oh, Jasmine Please Step Out From Behind Me
JASMINE: no
KANAYA: Can You At Least Tell Me Why You Won't
JASMINE: …
KANAYA: Jasmine
JASMINE: i am INCREDIBLY SHY when it COMES TO people kanaya…
ROSE: You have no particular reason to be…hm?
KANAYA: She Is Crying
JASMINE: all of YOU HAVE weapons that CAN AND will harm ME ONE day…plus ROSE…I…
KANAYA: What Jasmine
ROSE: Jasmine, what about you?
JASMINE: …iwaskilledbyjackjbgg…
ROSE: Pardon me? Please speak up.
JASMINE: i was KILLED BY jack noir AS SOON as i STARTED THE game rose
DAVE: whoa thats harsh
ROSE: Dave, hush! Jasmine, don't worry. None of us intend to harm you in any way possible.
JASMINE: i wouldnt SAY THAT about karkat…
Oh, and speak of the devil, here he comes. You rush to hide behind Rose because she's facing towards the transportalizer, so he won't see you. He bursts in, screaming something.
KARKAT: OUTTA MY WAY MOTHERFUCKERS. I GOT A HAND FULL OF LAB STUFF, MOUTH FULL OF WORDS AND- (A/N: I am so~ sorry. I forgot what he said at the time.)
KANAYA: Karkat What In The World Are You Doing? You're Scaring The Guest That's What
KARKAT: WHAT FUCKING GUEST
ROSE: That would be the one hiding behind me, Karkat. She is very light, despite her looks…
DAVE: ha ha dude you keep scarin everybody
KARKAT: IM GOING TO IGNORE THAT
KARKAT: WELL WHY THE FUCK WON'T SHE OR HE, DON'T GIVE A FUCK, SHOW ITS' SELF?
KANAYA: Because She's Scared Of Everybody But Us Three
ROSE: By what she told us,
DAVE: she got man-handled by jack
KARKAT: THAT WOULD SCARE ME TOO BUT HIDING YOURSELF WON'T DO YOU ANY FUCKING GOOD
ROSE: Oh dear…she seems to have run off.
DAVE: you didn't notice until now?
ROSE: Notice what, Dave?
DAVE: she stopped time for a moment or two to get away to somewhere else
KARKAT: HOW THE FUCK CAN SHE DO THAT? SHE ISN'T LIKE YOU IS SHE
DAVE: she's the witch of time
ROSE: And how would you know this?
DAVE: she told me before running off hey jasmine over here!
JASMINE: dave shut THE HELL up what's THE POINT of hiding IF YOU'RE found?!
DAVE: havin some fun
JASMINE: oh my GOD DAVE…
ROSE: Jasmine, could you please come out from your hiding area of choice?
KARKAT: OW FUCK!
DAVE: dude why are you on the floor
KARKAT: MAYBE BECAUSE YOUR GOD DAMNED FRIEND DECIDED TO PULL ME DOWN!
JASMINE: he is RIGHT I did pull HIM DOWN
ROSE: Come out, Jasmine.
JASMINE: no karkat SCARES ME
DAVE: he scares everybody
JASMINE: fi~ne
You step out very slightly. You wave a bit, not bothering to anything else. Dave looks at you through his sunglasses that automatically tell you 'that's not what she meant'. You sigh softly then walk up to them, asking a simple question of choice. You ask if they've noticed anything strange about the meteor. Karkat tells you yea that it's stopped. You nod and continue his statement.
JASMINE: yes it IS STOPPED however this IS A good thing
KANAYA: How
JASMINE: because due TO CIRCUMSTANCES i have STOPPED JACK and jade's SHIP FOR the time BEING KANAYA
KARKAT: HOW THE HELL CAN YOU DO THAT
DAVE: same here
JASMINE: my powers SEEM TO be powered BY MY emotions and I WAS extremely angered, CONFUSED, AND unhappy at THE TIME
ROSE: So, basically, since your feelings were true, you were able to stop the three things that were causing your emotions to overflow, correct?
JASMINE: of course ROSE BECAUSE you understand A WITCH'S powers like NO OTHER
DAVE: ooooh burn
ROSE: Oh, ha ha, very humorous, Jasmine. Wipe that triumphant smirk off your ill-tuned mouth.
DAVE & JASMINE: *fist bump*
KANAYA: I Hate To Say It Rose But She Has Got You Beat
JASMINE: oh one MORE THING
JASMINE: kanaya, as MY PATRON troll, i'd LIKE TO ask how YOU MANAGE to come UP WITH such fabulous DESIGNS FOR your clothes
KANAYA: That Is Quite The Question
KARKAT: OH MY GOG YOU DID THIS ON FUCKING PURPOSE DIDN'T YOU
JASMINE: no~ why WOULD I do that DEAREST KARKAT? *smirks*
After a slight lecture on Kanaya's clothing choice to torture the foul-language using Karkat, you cackle to yourself. Then, you remember something that makes your powers activate themselves again. You mumble your sister and the air around the group swirls in a tornado like fashion then make sure no one else can see you by gathering up dark materials. Everything settles down and you aren't there. You're elsewhere, but a strange conversation takes place in the place where you WERE.
DAVE: who kissed me
ROSE: What?
KANAYA: Who Would Wanna Kiss You
DAVE: youre just jealous rose
ROSE: In your dreams, Dave.
DAVE: what ever you say sassy pants
You cackle slightly to yourself as your blush grows ever so quickly. That was a great diversion to kiss the one and only Dave Strider. Though, you're still worried about your sister. You lean your head against the pillar you're leaning against and wonder how she is faring.
BE SISTER.
You switch from being Jasmine to her sister, Nami. You walk upstairs holding your trusty katana blade taught in your shaking, little hands. Dammit. If only you had ammo for your AK47… You open the door to your sis' room and another blade wielder readies its' stance for battle, which is closely related to being intimidating by standing there. You stand the way your adoptive father taught you.
RUN, DAMMIT, RUN.
You shake your head and state that this is your chance to show off to your sister how powerful you've become. That reminds you, where is your sister? She's usually in here…
LOOK OVER AT BED.
You see your sister, limp, lifeless, and bleeding to death, if already not. You suddenly feel faint and distant from your body and you look down, seeing a black sword pierced through your chest. As it's taken out, you faintly see who/what it is before passing out.
You awake on a yellow bed, next to your peacefully sleeping sister near a window that showed a yellow city. You look at yourself and notice that you are wearing yellow pajama's identical to your sister's. Damn, is everything yellow here?
FOCUS AND READ NOTE.
You see the afore-mentioned note and pick it up, sitting next to your sister on her bed. It reads, 'Sister, if you're reading this, and if it's on my torso, that means you're a Prospitian. You're playing Sburb with me. I will try and protect you with all my might.' You almost cry before it ends. She really is trying isn't she? 'Nami, this will require all of your attention and/or concentration, if you have any. :P' You giggle. She was an aspiring prankster thanks to that John kid. 'I want you to awaken from your slumber. It's dangerous here. Awaken and beat the game with me.' You close your eyes and open them to see a girl in front of you laughing her natural born ass off. You realize you're sitting on a guy with a blue outfit on. You ask what's wrong and an orange bird-ghost flies up to you.

DAVESPRITE: oh my god this is hilarious
JADE & JOHN: what what i want to know
NAMI: sorry jAde deArest it's A secret duh
DAVESPRITE: seriously john even you should know this despite how slow you can be
You think to yourself that you guess you aren't new at this anymore. You think the same for your sister.
Sorry for the length, but it had to be done in order for it to make as much sense as possible. As for the AK47 part as Nami, I have a fascination for flamethrowers and machine guns. I'm a pyromaniac. About this kiss. *backs away slowly from gonna-be-approaching fans* Dave fans don't kill me, he's my favorite too! I still like him more than my patron troll Kanaya. *puffs* R&R ~
