"Wwell wwell, isn't this f**kin' romatic?" Comes an all too familiar voice. You slowly get up, not looking at Eriden, locking hands with Gamzee as he stands up also. Then you both turn toward him at the same time.

Gamzee tenses, Eriden is covered in blood too, but its only Sollux, Feferi and Kanaya's. You squeeze his hand comfortingly and stare straight at Eriden.

"Heh, the crazy killer and the too-kind grub! Wwho kneww?"

"go, now, leave-" You try to command him, but you are cut off by Gamzee.

"LEAVE! MOTHERF**ER!" Gamzee screams. "You killed them too!"

You whisper urgently to Gamzee. "Keep calm, he's messing with you."

Gamzee shudders, and you can tell hes trying, but Eriden keeps jeering.

"Wwhere's your lusus to comfort you? Oh that's right, he could nevver comfort you, evven wwhen he wwas alivve he stayed as far awway as he could from you!" Eriden yelled at Gamzee

"And little miss goody-two-shoes, are you here, tellin' him he didn't just kill our friends! You aren't so good after all are you?" He insulted you.

"They all hated you, Eriden, never say they were 'our' friends." you say to him, trying to keep your voice steady.

He just laughs, Gamzee lunges at him, breaking free from your grasp. You need to act quicky, you run to where Gamzee was punching Eriden in the face, making him cry out a satisfacting "Nyeh!" each time his fist connected.

You grab Gamzee's arm and whisper in his ear. "You are better than this, stop, let someone else do it."

Gamzee trembles in your grasp, then pushes Eriden to the ground, and lets you lead him a couple yards away.

"You'll regret this!" Eriden yells, between coughing up blood. He takes out his wand and points it at Gamzee

"Regret What?" says another voice, its Vriska. Eriden turns toward her, momentarily forgetting you and Gamzee. Your curiosity gets the better of you, and you watch the show down.

"Vvris." spits Eriden

"Ampora." Vriska stretches out the first 'a'. She throws the journal she was horlding to the side and goes into strife position.

You are too distracted to notice Gamzee get up and slowly walk toward them.

"Motherf**king honk... motherf**kers." he says, in a scarily quiet voice

"No..." you whisper, but some force holds you back.

Gamzee honks and gets ready to attack.

You hear something behind you, you turn to see Kanaya. When she spots the three, she starts runnong toward them. You realize what she is going to do agter she passes you, which is to say, too late.

You can only watch helplessly as your matesprite is tossed over the edge.

"Gamzee! no!" you cry, and rush to the edge, almost falling yourself. You desperately search for his pancake body, almost not wanting to find it, but you can't see anything, for a permanent layer of fog is blocking the view of the ground below.

Tears spill over and you sit back, wondering how, in just a few short minutes, can you go from a beautiful dance, to an ugly death.
