I wake up, groaning, my vision blurred. I see grey and black figures above me, along with voices.
"Who is she?"
"Is she okay?"
"Where did she come from?"
"Hey! I think I just saw her stir!"
It takes a while for my vision to clear, revealing three other trolls standing above me, looking somewhat relieved. One was wearing red glasses and had a teal Libra sign on her black shirt. Another was wearing ridiculous clown makeup and had a purple Capricorn sign on his shirt. There was also one wearing a lot of jewelry with a fuchsia Pisces sign on her black shirt. I groan and blink a few times before trying to sit up.
"Look! She's finally waking up!" the Pisces says happily.
I rub my head. "What happened…?" I mutter, looking around.
"You came crashing down from who motherfucking knows where," the Capricorn answers.
I blinked a few more times and look around. I look down at my shirt and notice all of the Jade blood splattered across my clothes, covering me almost entirely from head to toe. I can't remember anything that had happened before one of the most annoying and awfully rude trolls on Alternia, Jayden, had asked me to meet him in the forest clearing that separated our hives. My memory slowly begins to come back, extremely spotty, as the Libra holds out a hand to help me stand. I take the hand and quickly get to my feet.
"So what's your name?" the Pisces asked. "I'm Feferi!"
"Alisha," I answered, still rubbing my head as my memory continued to return to me. I suddenly remember Jayden and I meeting. The purple blooded troll had attacked me out of no where with his stupid blade. I remembered dodging out of the way and using my powers to levitate myself, but Jayden still managed to cut me a few more times, and soon enough he'd brought me closer to the ground, where he'd continued to slash at me. My memory blacked out on me again as the other two introduced themselves.
"Hey motherfucker, I'm Gamzee," the Capricorn said. I didn't quite catch what he said next, but I was pretty sure it was a honk.
"I'm Terezi," the Libra says at last, sniffing the air around me. I was a bit weirded out about this and took a few slow steps that made my legs hurt, pain shooting up my legs at each step.
I nod as more of my memory returns, but not a lot. I remember a huge blow that Jayden had dealt while I was trying to fly off, struggling to stay conscious due to blood loss. My memory refuses to show me anymore, so I assume that's where I had blacked out.
"We should get you cleaned up, Alisha," Feferi comments as I snap back to reality.
"Uh, yeah," I reply as Feferi begins to walk.
"Come on, follow me!" Feferi calls. After a few seconds she turns around, waiting for Gamzee, Terezi, and I to follow.
I begin to walk, my legs aching horribly with each slow step, Gamzee and Terezi following behind me. We soon arrive at what appears to be a hive in this forest. Feferi opens the door.
"We're back!" Feferi yells happily, walking inside of the hive.
Who is she talking to? I wonder, beginning to walk inside.
"Took you long enough."
"Did you figure out what that noise was earlier?"
I hear other voices that I don't recognize as I walk inside, feeling like I'm about to collapse. I look around and realize that I'm standing in front of a bunch of other trolls, and they're just as surprised as I am.
