I am so sorry that it took so long. I kinda, sorta lost the papers the second chapters was in, so I had to find a notebook to write it all in. Again, I am so so so so so so so sorry. Please forgive me.

Now, that my apology is over. Happy New Year! I hope everyone has a very happy 2014!

Also, someone asked about the human versions of the trolls having more human-like names. About that, the timeline they are in is like a Human!stuck AU. In stories with this kind of AU, all the trolls keep their names. Plus, a name is part of a character or a person's identity. Since they are not my characters, so changing their names feels like changing who the character is without consulting their creator. Adding to that, I'm sure there is a timeline where they do have different names; this just isn't it.

Anyway, onward to the chapter!

Disclaimer: As I said earlier, I do not own the characters or Homestuck.


Human!Sollux's POV

"I need thee her now! I'm an old family friend!" Sollux exclaimed, arguing with the nurse at the counter.

"I'm sorry, but unless you are with a member of the family, I can't let you in Miss Megido's room," the lady said.

Sollux kicked the desk, cursing under his breath at the now throbbing pain in his left foot. He looked up when he heard someone say, "Nani? Sollux?" A girl a little older than him stood about two feet away. Her extremely dark brown hair was kept up in a bun while two strands stayed down on each side of her pale face. A light spread of freckles were sprinkled across her nose and cheekbones. She ware a wrap-around top in a maroon color with a matching mini skirt. This was Aradia's older sister, Damara Megido.

Damara walked right next to Sollux, driver's license in hand. She handed it over to the nurse. "And what relation do you have with Miss Megido?" she asked after giving it back.

"Ane." (Older sister)

"What?"

"They're thistherth," Sollux answered for her since Damara only spoke Japanese.

The nurse nodded and gave directions to Aradia's hospital room. Damara then started walking in the way the nurse pointed her. She suddenly stopped. Turning toward Sollux, she asked, "Sate, Sollux wa, anata ga ki tari shite inai? Anata wa kanojo a mitai n-so shinai?" (Well, Sollux, are you coming or not? You do want to see her, don't you?)

Taking that as an invitation to follow, Sollux walked up behind as she turned back around and stated walking again. The whole way there, Sollux and Damara didn't speak to each other at all. When they arrived, Damara didn't wait for Sollux to get the door for her and didn't bother to keep it open. Sollux sighed and caught it before it closed all the way. He entered, looking down at the floor, but his head immediately sprang up when he heard Damara scream, "Ittai nani!" (What the hell!)

Right beside an unconscious Aradia, a winged, kind of humanoid creature hovered over the ground near an open window. It had ram horned striped in scarlet, orange, and yellow and dark gray skin. Midnight black hair as long and untamable as Aradia's fell on it's shoulders from the red hood it wore. The hood connected to it's red pj's, and red fairy wings sprouted from it's back. It looked up at Damara's exclamation, and it was quite surprised. It's lips were Aradia's favorite shade of rust red that matched it's irises in it's eyes. On it's eye, the part that was usually white was yellow.

It then smiled at both of them, and in a voice too close to Aradia's, it said, "well this is unexpected. i guess this is where i take my leave but we'll meet again soon sollux!"

"...my name? How did you know my name?" Sollux asked, but the creature had already flew out the open window, closed it, and flew away.

"Ittai nani go to iu kotodeshita?!" (What the hell was that?!)


There you are! Again, I am so so so so so so so so so sorry! I don't feel like I can say it enough. Anyway, read & review!
