A/N: Guys I am so glad you are continuing with the story, even though you might have noticed more than one error in the grammar area. I am just reading it over again and holy cow there are a lot of errors.
This is going to be a long update! So be prepared.
Karkat POV
I glanced at Jade, then looked around the room. Jade and I were sitting in a meeting with Rose, Kanaya, Eridan, Nepeta; for some reason, and Gamzee.
Seriously. I had no idea why Nepeta or Gamzee where here at all.
Actually now that I thought about it...I knew why Nepeta was here. She and I tried to stop Dave when he was going to see John. But we didn't stop him at all. He still went to see him, even though it was not okay to do that at all. I'm not even sure if he is even making an progress trying to get John back. Does he have new friends now?
Dave was easy at that stuff, just getting new friends and acting so cool. I didn't even understand half his bullshit logic, but I guess that is the way Dave went by on things.
The room was pretty big, with no color that was a theme at all. The four walls were painted different colors. The four colors it is painted with was, blue, red, pink, and green. Yea. It really sucked being in this room without remembering anything. It still seemed weird just remembering John and Dave, like a distant memory. Well. Truthfully mostly John, he had a sorta effect on people. Lots of people liked John a lot, and well...it was not hard to be in love with him on the first day.
I felt really numb, and I didn't want to be here. But Jade dragged me here and I was now sitting with people I didn't want to speak to. An inaudible sigh escaped my lips as I pulled down the sleeves of my long-sleeved shirt. I traced the edge of the rounded table, it seeming new. Even though we had gotten it in the middle of the forest, it was nice. I don't even fucking know what it was doing there. It had to do something with the universes coming together or some shit.
The pale grey surface of the table felt nice. Almost instantly my body gave in and I laid my arms in front of me. I also laid my head in my arms comfortably I listened to the others' conversation. I looked over at this small group that had formed, with the others; excluding Jade and I.
"Well can we get this meeting going guys?" Eridan whined, barely being heard over the others talking.
"Yea!" Gamzee piped somewhat loudly, talking to the others. "I have fucking heard that those two motherfuckers were dating or they liked each other a whole lot.
"Really," Answered Kanaya seeming irked, "I think you should not speak so loudly."
Kanaya's gaze briefly fluttered over to look over to me for some peculiar reason. Her glance seemed a bit annoyed and her tone was even more so before. What the hell is going on with her? Did her and Rose have a fight or some girly drama happened?
A brief silence settled upon the room but Rose then added, "Did you inquire the knowledge that they actually liked each other of the starting point that they met or did the game bring them to them loving stage? You have to put in that they did know each other before the game and that they were friends. Nobody knows anything really personal about them but they did do a lot of activities together and-"
"Uhm?" A small voice interrupted. I turned my head slightly away, and closed my eyes and listened to their conversation. I frowned. This seemed like it was going to turn out really terrible. I didn't really want to miss a thing; so I opened my eyes and gazed at them. Staring at them, I waited what words they would say next; them judging of what actions of were there to come.
"Have anything to add darling?" Kanaya gave an unenthusiastic looked over to Nepeta, and the tension rose in the room. The way Kanaya said darling made it all seem too risky. Like this was a highskol, or however the crab you spell it, movie.
"Well..." She looked down at her hands then directly to Rose, "Don't talk about John; our leader, and Dave like that. They were very great and you do not need to get into their love life. At all."
Rose tilted her head and smiled an unusual yandere smile. She looked really fucking irritated. Rose never gets on the edge, or gets furious. It must of been building up. This is not going to turn out great at all. This is going to be a disaster. My eyes widened, and I sat up; looking at the group. I felt the pressure rising up faster and faster as I took a deep breath in. Waiting for something to happen, I stared.
It shattered.
"Don't speak about it?" Rose paused and tilted her head back to laugh. She stopped. "Well I shouldn't be expressing about that girl that pairs people up and even scrawls silly little stories about them. I mean who the fuck even does that?! You should not be the one talking here, Miss little pompous fantasy dreamer!"
I could see Nepeta's small mouth drop open in a gasp, as tears formed at her eyes.
"Don't talk to me like that y-you bitc-" she paused, "dumb and stupid Rose!" She yelled loudly.
Her chair hit the ground very loudly with a harsh 'bang' noise. Nepeta looked at the ground, with tears escaping her fragile eyes. It was a sight to see, Rose smiling like some phsyco, Nepeta crying, and the rest of us just well-sitting there.
But there was a sudden breakthrough, and Nepeta stopped sobbing. Her nose crinkled up and she sniffled. She then wiped it with her sleeve and looked down at the ground. Holding her sleeves still up to her face, she also wiped her eyes. Nepeta's movements abruptly stopped for a moment. It was still and silent in the room. She slapped her hands on the edge of the table noisily.
Bangs hid her dark deep black eyes, but a small smile could be seen on her lips. Everyone in the room gaped at her, expecting something.
"Rose." Nepeta looked up fiercely at Rose and held a staring contest.
Rose held her gaze, before her eyes swooped down and met the floor first. She didn't do this for long, because she pursed her lips then toyed with Nepeta's staring game again. Rose just replied with a simple, "What"
That satisfied Nepeta, because she smirked a cheeky smile. It spread across her face and her eyes brightened a bit.
"I challenge you to a duel." Neptea stared at her.
This is not the meeting that was suppose happen.
"Alright. Alright." Rose giggled, and stood up. Her chair scraped along the floor, filling the emptiness in the room. Everyone was staring at those two, scared of what is about to go down.
"Guys!" I stood up from my chair.
"We can work this out!" I looked at Rose, and she looked so fucking ready to kill Nepeta. They both ignored my unnecessary comment, and glared at each other. I stood there still, afraid if I would make one wrong move; I would get caught up into it. Jade must of sensed my helplessness, because she added a comment.
"Guys please don't-" Jade started, but she stopped when Rose took a step towards Nepeta.
"To make this fair..." Nepeta started, "we have to use...baseball bats."
I gasped.
What the hell is happening right now? What happened to innocent poor sweet Nep- Wait- what?
Nevermind.
But what the fucking hell is god damn happening. I don't know what is even happening right now, much less explain why Rose and Nepeta are going to strife. They were both workable people, and both really bright girls. ((A/N: no pun intended)) I really don't understand why they would do it now when we have such a dire situation at hand.
Why would they risk fighting...? And with bats?
I have to stop this.
This is crazy.
I looked up at Nepeta and Rose and they both held a bat; about ready to murder each other. Where the heck did they even get the bats? Their glares at both of them were intense as Gamzee, Kanaya, Jade, and I closely watched.
"1," Rose started, "2...3"
Nepeta leapt from her spot, and jumped to the wall. She used that as momentum to spring herself towards Rose. But Nepeta was a second too late and Rose had her bat ready. Nepeta realized her mistake quickly by the expression of her face, but she could not dodge this. Rose swung and she hit Nepeta's stomach.
A muffled sound could be heard as Nepeta hit the ground harshly.
"Nepe-" I called out, but stopped suddenly when she coughed out olive green blood. It splattered on the ground, making it feel very wrong to be here. A gasp caught my throat but a tear rolled down my cheek.
My vision blurred and it swam around me in continuing loops. The next that I saw was the ceiling, and a couple of people surrounding me.
Then it went black.
John POV
A day had passed, and I had calmed down a lot since my little crying episode. Just a tiny bit I have calmed down though. I had so much to deal with, and I didn't even know what else was going to come. Most likely a shitstorm probably that was going to appear out of nowhere. The sheets that Haru gave me, to use, rest against my skin as I laid in bed on the ground.
Yesterday I had taken my stroll, and had come back a little after two in the morning. I went to Haru's room right away and just collapsed on his bed. That day I felt exhausted, and frankly I didn't care if he had to move me or not. I knew he was still conversing to the others, since the lights were on in the joining rooms. I slipped past them undetected though.
Well now I just refused to get out of bed. The bed that Haru had to move me was on the ground. No one has bothered me, so I didn't acknowledge anyone. Keeping my eyes shut, I changed to laying on my right side. I suddenly heard foot steps approaching the room.
A door opened that was to Haru's room and then it was closed suddenly. The steps came closer to the bed, and then I was poked in the head.
"Hey John. Get up you lazy butt!" I identified Nagisa's voice to be said quietly.
"No fuck you. Go away." I muttered drowsily.
"Hey no bad words." Nagisa snapped at me, seeming a little offended. "Now get the heck out of bed." Nagisa pulled the blankets off of me quickly and then opened the curtains. The bright light suddenly poured into the room. I winced, covering my eyes with my arms. I groaned loudly.
"Nooooo-" I shut my eyes really tightly and my hands pulled up to my face; covering my eyes. "-I don't want the sun.
"John come on! Please?" I heard Nagisa's voice plead. "Haru, Makato, Rei-chan, and I will take you swimming! Oh this will be so much fun!"
I sat up drearily with discomfort, feeling exhausted. My muscles ached a lot and I didn't want to get up from my peaceful sleep. Bring my hands up to my face, I rubbed my eyes then yawned.
"Come on now!" Nagisa said hurriedly, then picked something up from the floor. My gaze shifted up to his face then down to his hands. He held a blue pair of swim trunks that had no designs on it. They looked simple, but nice.
"Put these on please and meet us downstairs John-chan!" He said with enthusiasm, then handed me the swimsuit. Nagisa left the room and shut the door after him. I sighed heavily because I didn't want to go swimming. It seemed boring and I didn't want to.
Well I guess I am forced to go then.
A/N: I am thinking about making the next chapter very soon! But I need to wrap this story up soon, so be ready for it to end.
But be ready to look out for another story. I am in the work in progress of making a Johndave possibly stridercest zombie fanfic! I need to sort out everything, and even make the basic storyline but be excited for it.
