I do not own Ib or Homestuck. I simply wanted to do this for fun! Btw, all the trolls are in their original outfits. No god tier outfits. So, yeah. Also, follow this story, it will be awesome, I promise. Unless you happen to read it after I finish it. Then don't bother, because once I finish it, I obviously wouldn't add more to it. The final chapter will be labeled; Epilogue. Obviously. So... yeah. Enjoy! :D ~enderRaven
P.S. ***SPOILER WARNING!*** DO NOT READ THIS STORY UNLESS YOU ALREADY KNOW THE ENDING OF IB, OR JUST DON'T CARE.
Chapter 1: The Gallery (Narrator P.O.V.)
Karkat looked around and sighed. "Why did we come here, again?"
"Because," John replied, "It will be fun, just you wait and see. This is Guertena, a famous Earth artist."
"If he was as stupid as all you other humans, than I shudder to think what we'll encounter here." Karkat groaned.
"Calm down, Karkitty, it will be great! Don't be grumpy." Nepeta smiled.
"Yeah, Karkat. I bet the art gallery will taste delicious!" Terezi grinned.
"I have seen plenty of Guertena's pieces. They are quite wonderful, really." Rose smirked.
"Yeah, well, great. Lets just go walk in circles for an hour, then get out of this place. I can already imagine, we'll be stuck here for sweeps!" Karkat growled.
"Don't be liike that, kk. IIt wiill be fiine. We won't be thtuck here for thweeps, ath you tho graciiouthly put iit."
"Sollux is right, though I hate to admit it. Wwhatevver." Eridan frowned, "Let's keep going, this place looks interesting!" Everyone continued forward, ignoring the stares of the people around them.
"Hey, guys, I think I want to look on my own. At my own pace, you know? Take in all of the artwork." Equius said.
"Sure, as long as I can come with you. We can both be alone to look at art!" Nepeta grinned.
"I'm not sure you have the correct definition of alone... but sure." Equius sighed.
"You know, I think I want to be alone too. But not with you guys. I actully want to be ALONE alone." Karkat growled.
"Sure, just don't get lost!" Rose smiled. Karkat scoffed and walked up the stairs. He looked around, taking in his surroundings.
"I can't imagine how many dead wrigglers it must have taken to make all this art..." Karkat sighed. He continued down the hallway, past the Death of the Individual sculpture. "Terezi would hate these. They don't have heads; how could you hang them?" Karkat blushed a little, thinking about Terezi. He continued down the hall, stopping at the Fabricated World painting. "This painting sucks. It looks like something Nepeta would cough up, after drinking a gallon of Faygo and eating a box of crayons. Fabricated World? How is this even a world?" Karkat raged. Just then, the lights went out. "Gah! What the- ?" Karkat looked around wildly. It took his eyes a moment to adjust to his dim surroundings. "Guys, where are you?" He called. No reply. "Guys, this isn't funny! Where are you?" Karkat called, a little louder. Still no reply. "Guys? Where ARE you?" Karkat yelled. He ran around the gallery. He quickly realized that not only his friends were missing; everyone was missing! "Just where am I?" He wondered aloud.
"Hey, guys. I think it's a miracle that almost everybody is here together, and we haven't attacked eachother... yet. But, where's Karkat?" Gamzee asked.
"Good question, Gamzee. Where did he go?" Kanaya asked.
"Who cares? That guy wanted to be alone. I don't think going to look for him would produce any good results." Vriska sneered.
"You don't produce any good results." Kanaya muttered under her breath.
"Ooooooooh! Burn!" John laughed, imitating Vriska.
"Not funny, John." Vriska frowned.
"Sorry." John replied.
"Guyth, let'th keep moviing." Sollux sighed.
"Yeah, Sol is right, an I hate agreein' with Sol. Let's keep movvin- Wwhoa, wwait a second. Wwhere's Gamzee?" Eridan stated. The group all stared at each other.
"Did anybody see where Gamzee went?" Rose asked.
"No." Everyone replied in unison.
"Well, that isn't good. How could that clown sneak off? I mean, he's pretty hard to miss, with his honking and all that face paint." Rose fretted.
There was an awkward silence, until Sollux spoke up, "I'm thure we wiill fiind hiim later. He couldn't have gotten too far, riight? He probably went lookiing for kk." Everybody agreed, and relaxed a little. Where he had went, they would never know.
