A/N: THIS ALL OCCURS BEFORE THE TROLLS ENTERED THE GAME!


I successfully entered into one of the most fortified hives probably ever, Karkat's. I had obviously tried before, but failed each time. I was wondering how I got past his Lusus this time when I almost walked into Karkat's room. I whipped back out of the door and around the corner as I heard him leave his room. I couldn't estimate the time I had, so I snuck in and sent to all the trolls something like, "HEY GUYS. NO MORE SWEARING. NO QUESTIONS, JUST DON'T". I got all replies fairly quick.

All agreed, but one person in purple ask, "wwhy wwould i do somethin for a lowblood like yourself".

I replied, "I SAID DON'T ASK QUESTIONS!"

"wwhatevver" is all he responded. I looked for someone to harass and I spotted someone in yellow. I click their name to start a chat.

It went like,

"TA: kk what do you want

CG: I WANT TO ASK YOU IF YOU HAD ANY RED FEELINGS FOR ME

TA: well yeah. we are moiiraiils. riight

CG: I MEAN REDDER FEELINGS THAT I HAVE FOR YOU

TA: are you a2kiing me two be your matespriit

CG: YES

TA: oh well kk"

As I got off, TA said "of course ii wiill be your matespriit". I closed out of the pop-up box and hurried out of the room. I heard him grumbling as I stood behind a corner. I giggled as he swore at his computer and the "HACKER" who did it. I heard him grumble some more as he typed on his computer. I peeked into the room. I saw him type to TA.

All I could read was, "JUST COME OVER NOW!" I ran down stairs and out the door, hoping to meet this TA. I pretend to walk up to Karkat's hive as I'm guess TA walked up to.

"Hey," I waved as he approached. He waved back. "So, you going to Karkat's, too?"

"Yeah. He wanted me to come. I don't get why he was flipping if he had the same feelings," he said. I noticed his lisp. "I mean really. Why would you flip if you were the one who wanted to be matesprits?"

I used my favorite line, that was usable for male and female trolls, "Oh, girl. I totally know how you feel. I mean Karkat hasn't broken my heart, but some other troll did."

"Yeah? Would I know them?" He raised an eyebrow at me as we stood by the door. I nodded. "Red or black?"

"Red." I shook my head, removing the thoughts. "Sorry. Bad memories."

"It's all cool. I know how you feel, girl," he smiled as he took my line.

"Oh. I'm such an idiot. I forgot to ask your name. What is it?" Karkat opened the door.

Karkat and the other guy answered at the same time, "Sollux." Sollux whipped around to view Karkat. He seemed especially displeased.

"Sollux, would you care to tell me why you wanted to be matesprits?"

"Uh, Kk, you wanted to be matesprits," his lisp was more pronounced when he was angry.

"I NEVER SAID THAT!" Karkat yelled. I flinched automatically.

Sollux pulled out something that resembled a phone. "Well, look at this." I guessed it was the conversation Sollux and I had.

"I didn't send that. A hacker did. That's the other reason I called you over. I need to know who the hacker is." Karkat tapped his foot.

I came into the conversation, "Someone's PMSing."

"PM-whating?" Sollux asked.

"It's an Earth girl thing. It's when they go crazy and get desperate." I giggled as I said, "And apparently male trolls, too."

"Oh. No, Kk is like that all the time," Sollux smiled.

"Well, since I'm not needed here..." I trailed off, hoping Sollux or Karkat would ask me to stay.

"Oh, well, bye," Sollux waved.

"Are you seriously leaving?" Karkat crossed his arms.

"Only if you don't need me to find the hacker, yeah."

"I could always use an extra pair of hands," Sollux suggested.

"Fine. Both of you, come in," Karkat said as we walked in. He closed the door and Sollux was already half way up the stairs. "Geez, Sollux." He glanced at me, "You would think it's his house. Climbing up the stairs like that. Well, come on." He waved me forward. I followed him up the stairs and into his room. Sollux was already typing away on the computer. Karkat face-palmed as I walked to see what Sollux was doing.

"Are you seriously putting a virus into his computer?" I asked as I leaned over Sollux's shoulder. I smiled as Karkat flipped his lid. I turned to him, "Karkat, I was just joking. Lighten up." I turned back to the computer, "You would think he could take a joke."

"He's never taken a joke as a joke," Sollux's reflection smiled. "Not that I can remember."

"So, you're looking for an external force?" Sollux nodded. "Why not an internal force? I mean what if the hacker used his own computer, but inside the hive?"

"I never thought about that. I'll check the log for any other computer source." Sollux typed away. He stopped for a moment. I saw why he stopped. Someone was messaging Karkat. It was the same purple text guy from earlier. "Kk, you need to talk to Eridan." Karkat grumbled some as he took his chair back from Sollux and I backed away. Karkat typed something before closing the chat pop-up box. It popped-up again. Karkat typed something and closed the box once more.

"Is everything fine?" Sollux asked, edging closer to the computer.

"Yeah. Just Eridan knows about our conversation," Karkat spun in the chair to face us.

"Which one?"

"The one I called you over for."

"This isn't good."

"Why?" I asked. They turned to me. "I mean it was a hacker who said that. Ever if they intentions were good." I frowned as I felt the guilt pile up. Soon everyone would know about Karkat and Sollux if I didn't act. "Let me talk to Eridan."

"Why?"

"Why not? I'm the extra pair of hands, aren't I?" I nudged Karkat out of his seat, but his and Sollux's hot breath heated my neck.

I started up the conversation box.

"CA: are you here to threaten me again

CA: you knoww i could get fef in on this

CA: and im not afraid to either

CG: No, I'm not.

CG:I'm sorry if you thought this was real, but the conversation between Sollux and Karkat was faked and a hoax.

CG: I am one of the many hackers that formulated the conversation for others to enjoy.

CG: Mainly, one who has too much time on hand.

CA: wwhat

CA: are you sayin that sol and kar never had a thin for each other

CG: No, they didn't.

CG: I and others planned out this whole event.

CG: If you wish to threaten me, the hacker, go ahead.

CG: But I must warn you of the consequences that will arise.

CA: im gettin fef invvolvved with this

CG: Do as you wish, but heed my warning.

CG: If you get Fef involved, you will only look bad in the end as an awful snooper, who hoped to ruin two trolls' lives.

CG: Fef will never forgive you." That's when he left.
