4. Nightmare

By: AniZombiefangirl

It had been a rough day after just mind numbing pestering to the humans, so I decided to take a short nap, to curve any and all future arguments I was bound to have with either one of those dumbfucks, and in the other hand, I needed some time to myself. So I curled up in the fetal position, and closed my eyes so that I was not surrounded by my fellow troll mates, but by pitch black nothingness.

OoOoO

Within my dream state, I awoke with a start in a white void, and was wandering around aimlessly. I stopped myself in my tracks and looked around for a sort of loophole of this place, or at least an exit would've been nice to look for and use right about now.

Although, what I found was, nothing. Not a single, fucking exit in sight. Just endless amounts of bright white void as far as my eyes could see. This was pointless.

Sighing, I closed my eyes, and ran a hand through my black and messy hair. Just a moment later, I felt a drop, much like a raindrop, fall onto the top of my head, alerting me that it was going to rain. Rain? That didn't seem right…

I looked up, only for another drop to fall onto my cheek. I wiped it away with my hand, and examined it. It wasn't like normal clear water rain, no, it was more of a rainbow tinted raindrop, that felt warm and liquid-like, but nothing like water. Another drop revealed itself to be not rain, but a single drop of teal hitting the ground infront of my feet.

Chewing on my bottom lip, I brought my rainbow drop covered right hand under my nose and sniffed cautiously. It smelled of iron, which didn't bode well. After that I took an even more cautious approach, and licked at the drop, and quickly spat out the metallic taste from my mouth. It was not water rain at all.

It was a sort of blood rain.

More drops fell around me from the ceiling, just falling as if it was normal in these parts. I cringed, wishing I would wake up from this awkward and demented dream, knowing this wasn't real, and that I didn't belong here. With the distinct feeling of eleven pairs of eyes on me, I turned around, now soaked in an array of colors of the trolls I knew as my friends and team members, all glaring at me. Some of them were even whispering things I dare not repeat, nor really expect them to say...

Karkat, It's All Your Fault…And You Are Aware That Those Who Came To Respect You, Now Cast You Away For Each Life That Has Been Lost...

WHY WOULD YOU DO TH4T TO US, K4RKL3S?

ii thought we were friend2, kk…

I turned away and ran from the beings that looked like my friends, that talked like them but I knew they weren't, and continued to try to wake myself up from this place, pinching my arm and slapping my face, although none of that did me any good. I don't want to be here, just somebody, get me the fuck out of here!

Red tears gathered in my eyes as I tripped over my own feet, and fell to the ground, cursing profusely, and I lay defeated on the floor. My fault.

It was all my fault. I'm a bad leader, I've let everyone down, and have blackened my already tainted soul, for my sins and their deaths. So much for all the work I've done to come to nothing.

Wake up Karkat!

Wake the fuck up, asshat!

Just...wake…up.

OoOoO

I awoke in a cold sweat sitting up quickly and holding myself in an embrace with my ego, calming the fuck down. The others turned to me, all with worried looks on their faces and all had asked what was wrong, and what did I dream about.

I shooed them away and barked at them that it was none of their fucking business, so they really didn't need to know.

Kanaya, a dear troll of mine, all I can see is the shameful glare she was giving me, as if she didn't trust me enough to even be in the same presence as me.

Terezi, also, a dear troll that I've known since grubhood, who gets on my nerves quite often, is even worried about me, but when I looked at her, the dream version of her had made another appearance in her place, causing me to cringe again, and being not able to cope well with most of what was happening around our lives.

Sollux, a hate-friend, but regardless a friend, in the dream state, he turned his back on me, I couldn't bare it then and I wouldn't bare it ever.

I take a deep breath and vow to never let sleep put me back into that freakishness of a nightmare…

Author's Notes:

Yes, I did a Homestuck one, shoot me. I love Homestuck, and I saw a comic just yesterday that inspired me to write this. So kudos on the comic and hopefully kudos on this hopeless piece of crap I call writing. I swear, I'm sorry for not having anything for you guys sooner, but this summer has just been a nightmare for me, and I have made it possible to make Karkat explain why. ;D I love all of you~~

Disclaimer: Karkat and Homestuck related things belong to Andrew Hussie, not me.

Also, if this seems too out of character for you, then go away. And a somewhat late warning, there are cursing words in it, so you've been warned, regardless of the period it took to type this.

Rate and review nicely please, if you have nothing nice to say, then don't send it to me.
