OK guys! I literally woke up super early so I could start typing this for you, and I'll probably end up typing late into the night so I can update! I wanted to update so bad yesterday but my English teacher decided to be a b**** and give us three assignments, and I had to study for a test, that I am most likely going to fail! And we had a pop quiz in both math and science or else I would've been planning this early on (By the way this all happened on Monday...) And A science lab was due...SO School s basically going to be a b**** for the next two weeks until Summer! Then I have violin stuff... OK BACK TO REALITY So I'm writing this as I'm listening to Broadway Karkat: Knight of Blood, Ave Maryam, Lament, those sort of songs. SO I recommend you to listen to them while reading (they're really good...) I'm also planning a sequel, and I'll tell you guys when I post it, but for right now I'm working on these stories: The Forbider's Blood, The Lost Dragonslayer, and Memories. Plus the plethora of story's I've got saved in my e-mail... Yep I'm ranting now. You can read it now :D

"John, I am going to search for the power source and turn on the lights alright, please keep watch over Karkat," She orders, tone as stern as she could make it while it dripped with exhaustion.The Heir nodded, panting still, and sat up (with much difficulty) to look over at the nubby horned troll. Kanaya knew they would be ok for a few minutes, but not long. She quickly walked through a side hall, brushing a hand against the metal wall, stumbling only when she tripped over an old computer monitor. After a few more minutes of blind fumbling (how did Terezi deal with this every day?!) she found the light box, flicking on three of the five switches. Lights flickered on slowly, and she sighed in relief.
Of course, that relief dissipated as the full situation hit her once again. She almost groaned in exasperation, but kept her polite facade and began walking quickly back to the main computer room. When she returned, the only thing that greeted her was soft snores. A small smile came over her face as she saw John lying on his side, facing Karkat, and Karkat had moved apparently, and was now spread eagled, snoring along with the human.
Kanaya chuckles, walking over to the two of them. John was ok, just worn out from using his God Tier too much. But she hadn't had proper time to look over Karkat, so she did so now.
His long sleeved shirt was ripped to shreds, so it wasn't hard to get rid of it. Even though Dave had ,manipulated Time, and Jade helped with Space, there was a short scar, right above Karkat's heart. It was healed over, but there's no way that it would fade. A small frown was plastered on Kanaya's face as she surveyed the small cut's and injuries he had acquired, but they weren't serious.
All in all, he was in better shape than she had hoped.
She flinched as pain ran through her abdomen, and laid down.
A few minutes of rest couldn't hurt.

They had been walking for about an Earth Hour when Gamzee grunted and pointed at something. Everyone followed his finger, and saw the black silhouette of their metal facility. A slow grin spread through the group as they saw how close they all were to getting back to Karkat.
Enthusiasm spread through the group and they picked up the pace. Soon they were all jogging quickly, the metal building steadily getting closer and closer. The trolls all thought about Karkat, worried if he would be ok or not. After all, he was the leader, and everyone had their fun with him. Energy was built up again, ander after five minutes of jogging Jade slid to a stop with a large grin.
"Ok guys! I've got enough God Tier, as does Rose, grab on!" She beamed widely, and they all quickly moved into position. Even the ever expressionless Cook Kid had a small smile, and he joined hands with his ecto-sister along with Jade, lending them his God Tier even though they didn't really need it.
With a flash of light they were in front of the facility.

Johnn and Kanaya woke up instantaneously as they heard a loud thunderclap. John grinned, knowing the sound. He began to scramble up, following Kanaya, but before he could move a scittering noise from behind him made him pause. He stopped Kanaya and they turned to see Karkat staring wide eyed at them, backed into a corner, under Sollux's computer desk.
"Karkat you're awake!" John shouts in glee, beginning to run forward, but a hand on his shoulder stops him. John looks in confusion at Kanaya. The Jade-blood has a grim and sad expression on her face, and she released her grip.
"John, look at his eyes," She says quietly. John looks at Karkat, still confused, but realization materialized as he saw those red irises, brighter than Dave's, watching his movements in fear.
John softens his tone, trying to keep the depression out of it. "Karkat, it's OK-" he begins but the Cancer growls something at him, and curls up tighter, trying to get as far away from him as possible.
"Kark-" John tries again.
"FUCK OFF FUCKASS!" Karkat screams, now burying his head into his knees. John now backs off, looking hurt. Kanaya walks forward, grabbing the humans wrist and pulling him gently toward the entrance, where they were almost bowled over by other trolls. Before a peep could be made Kanaya whips out her chainsaw and runs toward them, making them abscond into the hallway.
John is pulled into a loose hug Dave as they walked along the hallway, following the Jade blood that was herding everyone into an empty room.
"Listen, he doesn't remember us and he is currently scared out of his wits, he was prepared to fucking kill John," the Virgo hisses, green tears forming at the corner of her eyes. The trolls stare in shock as the Jade blood looses her cool, then they all shrink into themselves, depression filling their hearts once again.
"Karbro...doesn't remember?" Gamzee murmurs, shuffling his feet a little, sad expression on his face.
Rose goes over to comfort her matespirit while the Jadeblood cries silently. Jade looks at the Virgo in horror, Becsprite ears flattening to her head as she began crying bitterly.
"He seriously...looked like he was...scared of me..." John mutters into Dave's God Tier hood. Dave frowns in worry (not because he cared about the damn troll...but because he wouldn't be able to fight with the same Karkat ever again) and loops his arm tighter around the Heir.
"Th'o KK...he'th th'till awake a th'tuff though, right?" Sollux asks quietly. He gets a silent nod in response from both Kanaya and John. The psionic user bites his lip, double teeth drawing honey blood.
"I-I'm going to try to talk to him..." he eventually stutters, and releases Aradia's hand to begin walking out. No one stops him, they knew that since the two of them were close...maybe he would remember.
Sollux walks slowly down the hallway, pushing the sadness out of his eyes and voice, trying to go for his best "I'm an a'th'hole" smirk that pisses Karkat off the most.
When he get's to the computer lab, he looks around around in confusion for a few seconds until he heard quiet sniffling from under the desk. It was...by his. He gets down on his hands and knees, then sits down cross legged. He found he was positioned ten feet away from a crying Karkat Vantas.
KK...you really don't remember do you...A sad smile is tugged onto his face, and Sollux cautiously begins crawling towards the sobbing troll. When Karkat notices him, he flinches and curls into himself again.
"KK...can...you remember?" He asks softly, leaning forward, almost brushing a stray piece of hair away from his face, but the scared look on his face made him stop.
Karkat...looked so lost. His red irises brimming with tears, but not only that, the fear in there was enough to make Sollux begin tearing up.
"KK...plea'th?!" he whispers, pain laced in his voice now.
"I-i'm trying," Karkat says quietly, hiccuping slightly as another few sobs ripped their way through his chest.
"W-why? Why can't I remember Sollux?!"
\Authors Note\ Yeah! finally got it done! It took me all of last night and this morning, then tonight to think and type this up, but here you go. Guess what guys. I'm pretty damn sure I'm not lying either. Go ahead and bawl your eyes out, that's what the story was supposed to do in the first place. OK I'M SO SORRY FOR THAT LAST STATEMENT ;-; BUT REALLY THIS . IS. SADSTUCK. so dry your tears! Rejoice for my niceness! Seriously, the sequel will make you happy I swear! Did you know I origanolly named this story "Why Can't I remember Sollux?" because it was going to be an only SolKat fanfic but I didn't, and did this instead :D I think that's what I'll name the Sequel... (maybe not...) But be on a lookout! I'll do my best to type it up in the next few days!
