I'm sorry it's been so long. My writing class piled on the work. But here is your update. Read and review if you like! Homestuck is not mine, just this plot. –edited-
You are Dirk Strider and you're beyond pissed. You're carrying Jake over your shoulder and every step you take along the darkened tunnel he's bouncing against your back. The hole in your stomach is bleeding profusely as it tries to knit itself back together, but you don't care. You're too busy trying to decide what you're going to do with the idiot human. You can't quite believe you got taken in by his offer to belong to you.
You were never the kind to share and that little trollop was talking about reproducing with that spider like he was looking forward to it! She'd even kissed him!
Eventually you reach the exit and set Jake, none too gently, against the rock wall beside the tunnel. He's sleeping away and that just makes you angrier. So you slap him. It takes two more before his eyes open. "D-Dirk?" he whimpers, a hand going to the thorn in his shoulder.
"Right here," you say. You're barely containing your anger.
"Where are we?"
"Outside. Did you have a good nap, Harley?"
He looks up at the ice in your tone. "Nap? Why was I…" He trails off and you can see it as he remembers the last hour's events. He turns and throws up a second later and you jump back to avoid the splatter. It's disgusting when human's do that.
"You remember then. Good. Then you know why I want to rip your cock off and shove it down your throat," you hiss at him while he wipes the bile from his chin. He looks up at you, confused and flops back against the rocks, trembling like a pathetic infant. "What, you don't know? Let me make it clear then." You reach down and grab the front of his shirt, lifting him to slam his back into the stone.
He bites his lip on a scream and it pleases you greatly. "For someone who's supposed to belong to me, you were certainly willing to cooperate with that bitch!" You snarl at him, wings flaring behind you and tail lashing.
BE JAKE HARLEY
You are Jake Harley and you are having a very, very bad day. You don't understand why Dirk seem so furious at you, when you have a hazy memory of saving his life before you'd passed out. All you'd done was distract that spider lady so Dirk could free you and kill her. Why did that make him so angry? True you'd flirted with her a bit as part of that process, and she had been rather attractive despite the spider bits, and the fact that she had stabbed him. The thorn was still stuck in your shoulder along with the pain that accompanied it as proof.
"Dirk. Can you. Let me go?" You struggle to say, hands going up to hold onto his wrist. They're halted by Dirk's snarl and bared fangs.
"Why should I? I really ought to just kill you now."
Now you're just offended, despite the pain. "We had a deal! You said you'd take us to the temple, and let the humans live!"
"IF you belonged to me. You didn't exactly show your loyalty to your owner when you were 'chatting' with that bitch!" He's in your face now, barely an inch away and you can see that he's not just angry. He's hurt. Emotionally, as well as physically.
So you kick him in the stomach.
Dirk cries out and falls to his knees, dropping you in the process. Your shoulder is screaming as you slide to the ground as well. "I never… said I belonged to her, you dumb, selfish, stupid demon!" You glare at him and his eyes are slitted like a cats when he looks back. "I had to keep her distracted! You were sneaking up on her, and while she made my skin crawl and I wanted to throw up in her face at the things she was saying, I did what I had to do to give you the opportunity to kill her!"
This seems to calm Dirk a little, though you can tell he's trying to decide if he wants to kill you for kicking him or not. "Why should I believe you?" he says.
You roll your eyes and shift so you're laying back against the rocks again. "You're really insecure, you know that, mate?" You ignore his hiss. "Dirk, I said I'd belong to you. I never go back on my word, and I have to anyway to keep my sis-" Your eyes widen. "SHIT! My sister! The other spider lady said she was taking one of the girls to Roxy! What about my sister!?" You're panicking now and Dirk seems to come back to reason as you start to hyperventilate.
BE DIRK STRIDER
"Jake, shut up. I'll find her." You finally grumble, climbing to your feet with a bit of effort. You're Dirk Strider again, and while you still want to hurt the human, you also want him to stop panicking like a child.
"But, you're injured." He says, looking up at the bleeding hole in your stomach. "They may be able to injure me because of her. But I'm still an Arch Demon. This is just a scratch," you say, letting your wings furl against your back. You take a step towards the tunnel, but Jake stops you by grabbing your pant leg.
"Don't. Don't leave me out here alone. What if the other spider comes back!?" You can see his absolute terror at meeting another spider. Perhaps you had over reacted before?
You don't have time for this though, and just shake your head, drawing your sword and offering it to him, hilt first. "Then you slice her up." His eyes are wide as he takes it and then you delve back into the darkness of the spider lair. You know where to look first to find whichever human girl still waited to be carried off to Roxy.
