Chapter two? Why yes! I didn't expect this to be so popular, thanks viewers! Chapter one pretty much got the gist of the plot, now just to write out the story itself. THAT SHOULD BE FUN (trololo). Lol, trolling myself—MINDFUCK! Anyway, I don't own Homestuck, I just kidnap the characters every now and then for pleasure –w–
~oxoXoxo~
"I really think that wearing the big pullover hoodie just automatically tells trolls that there's something wrong with you." KK says. Before we left my hive I dried myself off, thus making the fins go away, and I put on a big pullover just in case water splashed on me. I'm truly nervous, I got wet twice and both times the fins grew. I don't want to believe Kanaya's theory, but it's hard to ignore it.
"Well, there ith thomething wrong with me KK." I snap back and pull the hood lower to cover my face.
"Yes, I know. You're slowly turning into a seadweller." I punch him.
"Thut up!"
"Who the fuck is gonna hear us? There's no one out here! It's as empty as Eridan's quadrants." (A.N: OLDEST FUCKING JOKE IN THE FUCKING BOOK. Mindfucking myself…ewe)
"Are you really cracking lame joketh at a time like thith?"
"We're going to Eridan's hive. Not only have we hit rock bottom, but we've gone mentally insane."
"Right about that," I decide to lead since I know a shortcut to the beach, it doesn't take too long. The salty sea air is cool against my face, and weirdly refreshing.
"Thince Feferi liveth around thith beach, Eridan thould be around here thomewhere," I say.
"What, you never see him whenever you visit Feferi?"
"No, actually, never did, now that I think about it." Odd I never saw him. KK and I walk along the shoreline, avoiding the tide, and we come across a sandbar. All the way out at its tip I see a dramatic, large shipwreck. I can't believe I never noticed it before.
"Ugh, it only figureth we have walk through the water to get to hith hive." I start walking, knowing my shoes will leak. KK follows once he takes his shoes off and rolls up the cuffs of his pants. I soon feel the electricity again.
"Euh…" KK shudders, "Watching those fins come out of your face is so creepy."
"You haven't felt them." We walk for a few minutes before we come out towards the tip, with dozens of rocks sticking out from the sand. I look up at the hive and I know I've been defeated.
"I don't want to be here." I say.
"We have to. Unless, you know…you WANT to be one of the fish freaks."
"NO."
"Okay then. Look, I don't wanna be here either, but you wanna be normal, and Kanaya said he's our best bet. Let's at least give him a shot since we barely have any options at all."
"Fine," I sigh. I know KK's right, but…it's Eridan. My feet feel heavy as I walk towards the door; I slowly raise my fist and take a deep breath. Gathering what's left of my sanity, I knock. At first, nothing happens. The waves crash against the rocks, occasionally spraying me, and that's it. I knock again, still nothing. I look back at KK, who is visually annoyed, like normal. He comes up and starts pounding the door.
"Fish fuck! Get your finned ass out here right now before I smash the door in and go ape-shit crazy!" Not a usual insult from KK, he must be trying to be nice.
"W-what?" Eridan finally opens the door, he must've been napping, he doesn't have on his glasses or his usual asshole cape. It just makes the situation even weirder.
"Mind letting us in?" KK glares at him.
"Kar? Dammit I can't see shit, w-where are my glasses…?" he goes back in his hive but leaves the door open, "Uh, come in, I'll be a minute." The inside of Eridan's hive seems almost normal. There are huge guns and rifles and sabers hanging on the walls which I guess is pretty cool, but everything is a different shade of purple so that just ruins it. KK and I sit on the couch which is really a big shell hollowed out with cushions in it and watch Eridan go in what looks like his bathroom to retrieve his glasses.
He comes back out with his glasses. "Might I ask just w-what the fuck you're doin' here w-with one of your low-wblood friends, Kar?" he must not recognize me with the hood, but he noticed the yellow sign on the front of it.
"It's Sollox, fish fuck. And…we need your help." KK looks at me; I'm ready to die of embarrassment. I've been reduced to a stupid, hopeless, whiny, cocky seadweller who would very much like to cull all landwellers—WHICH I STILL AM. I pull off the hood and look up, knowing I look like a pitiful sack of shit. Eridan stands there, staring at me for a minute, and then he leans down and tries to grab the fins.
I swat him away, "Don't touch them,"
"They're obvviously fake, aren't they? Sol, I knew-w you w-were a bastard, but show-win' up at my hivve w-with fake fins glued to your face is low-w evven for you. Now-w stay still so I can take things damn things off and then properly show-w you out." When he says properly I see him glace at the weapons on the walls, he caught me off guard there. He grabs the fins and I can't move, it feels like two needles are poking me in the face and if I try to break free they'll rip the skin off my head. His grip gets tighter and the pain doubles, almost making me scream.
"Dude, let go, you're hurting him!" KK yells, Eridan smirks.
"W-what w-will happen? Oh, I know-w—NOTHIN'." He starts pulling. I try to stop myself from screaming, but that doesn't actually work. Fish fuck almost starts laughing at my expense. I hear something, and Eridan's grip loosens. I see KK holding one of the swords from the wall in front of Eridan's neck.
"Let him go, or else." KK growls.
"Or else w-what?" Eridan glares at him. KK nudges his neck with the blade and he lets go completely—giving me the ability to move and breathe again—backing away like the coward he is.
"I'll kill you," Eridan looks at him like he's out of his mind, which he might be, and backs up another few feet and lowers his hands. KK lowers the sword, "Long story short, Feferi and Sollox kissed and now whenever he gets wet he grows fins, and according to legend, he's slowly turning into one of you guys. He wants to be normal, and I'm sure you'd like him to be a landweller just like everyone else you hate so you can kill him and not be guilty of killing one of your 'fellow highbloods' or whatever, so we need you and your science-y skills to turn him back to normal. So will you please help?" Eridan then looks back at me, but seems more interested than last time.
"You and Fef kissed?" He asks me.
"That'th what you're worried about?" I can't believe this.
"Dude, he's turning into a fucking fish and you're worried that he kissed his girlfriend?"
"It's a simple question, can't blame me for pryin'," He looks back at me with his eyes narrowed, he actually looks serious, "I'll help you, I don't know-w how-w I'll help you, but I w-will. And this better not be a stupid joke either, or else the both 'a you are dead."
"Thanks," KK says, Eridan looks at me, but I turn away.
"Whatever." this is the most mortifying thing that has happened; dear god, why did this have to happen to me?

Motherfucker this thing is short. It's ANNOYING ME! Ah well, chapter two is done. Sorry it took a long time, the first of June (yesterday, I'm an idiot) I went on a class trip to Hershey Park. It's a special thing the graduating class, or eighth grade, gets to do before we graduate in my school. Speaking of graduation, my last day of school is the thirteenth, and then I will update a hell of a lot quicker than I am now. Also, I may not update this week because of exams, though I could honestly give a shit less about them seeing as how they don't affect my grade, just what classes I'll be put in next year. I can't wait for next year—I'M GOING TO HIGH SCHOOL! FUCK YEAH! Anyways, read and review! Bye guys!
