Everyone look at his or her own friend, Tavros Nitram, who is being controlled by a 5-sweep old girl named Ronica Ergaha. When they finally spot her in abandon lime-blood territory, she just gave up by kneeling. However, she will not be losing that easily.
Suddenly, lime-colored spark coming out of the ground, the sparks is weak, but no complain of what Ronica is summoning. The ground begins to shake violently on their feet; they do not know what going on. They all fall from their feet when it getting more violent, but immediately Vriska Serket figures out what is going on. However, she is too late. A big skull suddenly begins to appear on the ground, following by a skeletal figure. As the skeleton appears, it is a shape of a dragon and everywhere with dead vines and wallflowers. Everyone is shock of the huge skeleton; it could be bigger than Vriska's lusus, Spidermom, or worst. The skeleton putting its hand down to the ground for Ronica and elevates her to the top of its skull.
"lOVE mY lUSUS," Ronica said.
"hER nAME iS wISTARIA…"
"FUCK NO." Karkat Vantas said.
"IT LOOKS FUCKING UGLY."
"fUCK yOU! tὸn tό"
Wistaria roars at the trolls, very angry from the negative comment. However, no one did not finch. They all prepare their selves for strife. Ronica notices their bravery and confidence, but she know they will not going to survive any longer. Therefore, she grins.
"wHAT'S uP wITH tHE bRAVE fACES?" she asked.
"YOU KNOW WHERE WE HERE FOR, RONICA." Karkat answered.
"WE'RE HERE FOR TAVROS."
"tAVROS? nOT sURE iF i cAN bRING hIM bACK, aFTER oUR lITTLE cONVERSATION, i hAD tO sHUT hIM uP fOR bEING sO nOSY. tHEREFORE, yOU gUYS wON'T bE hEARING hIM nO mORE!"
"What!" Vriska shocked.
"dID yOU hEAR mE? yOU wON'T bE hEARING hIM eVER aGAIN!"
Ronica points at Vriska for her lusus to attack. Wistaria roars and uses its tail to whip her. Everyone dodges the tail whip on time. However, with all the old hives are being hit, they starting to tumble down behind of the trolls. Sollux Captor and Aradia Megido spots it and tries to stop it, but the tail immediately hit them and they flies out of the territory. Eridan Ampora and Feferi Peixes watches their friends fly out and turns to see a hive is falling on top of them. They did not make it on time.
Gamzee Makara uses his clubs to hit the tail, but the tailbones are too strong to break. Wistaria starts to use her wing cover with vines to blow the annoying clown away. Gamzee flew all the way to a hive and knock out. As the wings continue, Kanaya Maryam, Equius Zahhak and Nepeta Leijon are too flies away to the same hive with Gamzee.
Only three trolls left, Karkat, Vriska and Terezi Pyrope. Ronica laughs.
"tHIRD oF a qUARTER oF yOUR fRIENDS aRE oUT aND oNLY 3 oF yOU lEFT." She said.
"yOU gUYS mUCH bE tHAT dESPERATE tO gET yOUR fRIEND bACK, hUH? wELL, tOO bAD! i hAVE oTHER pLANS. bYE!"
Ronica and her lusus begin to abscond; but they are not giving up. The three quickly grab the tail and they fly off with Ronica. She sits down on the skull and continues to look onward to the nearest territory. Which is her old neighbor the yellow-bloods. As Karkat holds on for his dear and pathetic life, he notices what the lime-blood is heading.
"GUYS." Karkat said.
"SHE HEADING FOR SOLLUX'S TERRITORY."
Karkat begins to climb up to reach for the skull, following by Vriska and Terezi. All three continue climbing to the backbone, but unsure if Ronica notices them. As they finally reach to the skull, prepare their selves to attack. The three springs to attack, but no one is not here. They all confused of how she is not here, but a little flower attaches the skull.
"WHY THERE A FLOWER DOING ON A FUCKING SKULL?" Karkat asked.
"IS THIS LIME-BLOODED TRYING TO PLAY WITH US? AND AGAIN WITH THESE STUPID ASS QUESTIONS!"
"H3H3!" Terezi laughed.
"TEREZI, SHUT UP! THERE'S NO TIME FOR THAT SHIT."
"MY B4D, 4T S3NS3 G1V3 SOM3 SC3NT OF HUMOR :]"
Karkat give himself a facepalm while Terezi laughs again. Suddenly, the undead lusus roars of the trespassers on its head. Wistaria begins to land unexpected to get the trespassers off, but it also cost itself as well. The undead lusus land on a plain grassland and crush with impact; the three trolls felt the impact and falls off the skull.
Inside of the skull, Ronica watches the last three falls and then smile. She sighs with relief when those three fell from their doom. She went out of the skull from the mouth and walks to the bodies. Karkat, Terezi, Vriska and the other trolls were trying to save their wimpy friend who was dumb enough to wear the necklace. However, they end up losing.
The necklace suddenly turns brown and brown colored tears begin to fall. Ronica look at the necklace, she is not sure of why it change to brown.
"tH,,THEY DIED FOR ME,," a voice of Tavros said.
"tHEY ALL WANTED ME BACK,,, aND YOU KILLED THEM,,, gAMZEE, aRADIA, kARKAT AND EVEN vRISKA WANTED ME, aND YOU KILLED THEM!"
Suddenly, the necklace begins to glow and a symbol of the Taurus appears. The light reflects to the sky, Ronica look up and a light of an adult troll appear. She is shock seeing someone she recognize before.
"rONICA," the light said in a dominant way.
"wHY YOU DOING THIS TO YOUR FRIENDS?"
"mR. s?" Ronica shocked.
"yOU DID NOT ANSWER MY QUESTION, rONICA, wHY YOU DOING THIS?"
"yOU kNOW wHAT aRE tHEY dID tO mY fRIENDS, tHEY'RE bETRAYERS tO uS aND tHIS eRA sHOULD kNOW iT."
"nO THEY DON'T, yOU NEED TO FORGET THE PAST AND SAVE THEIR FUTURE,"
"mE? bUT wHAT aBOUT…"
"mALICO DID HIS JOB TO SAVE YOUR FUTURE, nOW IS YOUR TURN TO SAVE EVERYONE ELSE,"
"bUT i cAN'T dO tHIS aLL bY mYSELF!"
"yOU DON'T HAVE TO,"
"wHAT dO yOU mEAN?"
"mY FRIENDS, tHEY'RE WILLING TO HELP YOUR BIGGEST QUEST."
"wILL tHEY fORGIVE mE?"
"oNE ALREADY DID, hE LISTENING WITH OUR COLLOQUY RIGHT NOW,"
"tAVROS? bUT aLL tHOSE tHINGS i dID…"
The light begins to fade away, did not even answer her question. She looks down at the necklace, which is still brown. Tavros' voice continues.
"rONICA," he said.
"pLEASE DON'T DO THIS, tHERE'S WAYS TO FIX YOUR MISTAKES AND FORGIVE SOMEONE,"
"bUT tAVROS, i mADE sO mANY. nO oNE wILL uNDERSTAND oF wHY i dID aLL tHIS!"
",,,,,,"
"i wANTED eVERYTHING bACK lIKE bEFORE, bUT i mESSED uP. i mESSED eVERYTHING uP! i dON'T dESERVE tO bE iN tHIS pLANET nO mORE!"
Suddenly, Ronica immediately takes off the necklace and throws it out of sight. Which she wishes she will never be seeing or hear again, her wish came true. Tavros' iris begins to turn back to brown and shut his eyes. After a minute, he slowly opens it back. He looks at his hands and sees he is not controlled. He smiles of having his body back, but at the same time, feel bad for Ronica. After hearing about her past and friends died for her, there is a reason why she in this era, to protect her new friends. Like Tavros Nitram.
As Tavros tries to search for Ronica, he gets tackles by his three friends. It is strife all over again. After the mini-strife, Tavros told them about how he got his body back.
"THANK GOD SHE GONE." Karkat said.
"I MEAN, I LOOK ALL THE DAMAGES SHE DID IN ONE FUCKING DAY!"
"COME ON, WE GOT TO FIND THE OTHERS."
"oH YEAH, bUT WHERE ARE WE,"
Karkat looks around his surroundings, which he is not familiar.
"Well?" Vriska said.
"HOW THE FUCK SHOULD I KNOW!"
"H3H3!" Terezi laughed.
