~ Nepeta was enjoying this secret area she discovered a few nights earlier. She finally decided to go skinny dipping and play in the water that night, since she knew noone came around this place. She was splashing around a bit, feeling the water, when she thought she heard something in nearby bushes. She stared for a while, everything still and silent. She gave a relieved sigh and decided it was her imagination.
~ Gamzee sat there silently, hoping he hadn't let out too big a sound. His thoughts were confirmed as he heard the splashes of water again. He sighed, heartbeat calming just a tad bit. 'What the hell am I still doing here?' he thought to himself, his blush deepening. He was about to stand up and start leaving, when he heard a movent nearby, barely audible thanks to the water splashes.
He sat there, listening to any other sounds. About an hour passed without incident, and Gamzee decided the movement earlier was his paranoia acting up. He sat up, looking to see Nepeta had gotten out and put a towel around her, drying off. Her slim legs crossed as she was sitting, her arms behind her holding her up as she looked at the sky. He couldn't help wondering what she was thinking of. He stared at her, taking in how beautiful she looked as she moonlight shone off her. That's when he saw a movement on the other side of the lake. The silhouette of the body was barely seeable, but there. Gamzee tensed up a bit, noticing another shift of movement from where he heard it earlier, as if someone was standing up. He looked around him, noticing a shift in the air. Someone was near. And it didn't feel like they were very friendly. Had they noticed him? Was he the one they're here for? Or...
His head snapped up, seeing the body across the lake come out, creeping towards Nepeta, some type of katana drawn. Gamzee took out one of his clubs, which he always carried around. He watched as the body near him exited the woods near him, so Gamzee wasn't spotted. Yet. He stood up slowly, drawing his other club. He looked towards Nepeta, her eyes were closed and her head was up. He stepped out when he saw the bodies moved out more. He stepped behind the one nearest to him without a sound. "Boo" he whispered in their ear.
The human jumped, stepping back, turning to him pulling out dual blades, careful not to make a sound. He didn't expect to see the dark haired tall troll just inches behind him. Gamzee smiled. "What's going on motherfucker?" He whispered.
The human lashed out with one blade. Gamzee had dropped a club, balancing it on his foot so it didn't hit the ground, and caught the blade with his index finger and thumb. The human made a motion to slash Gamzee, but had been thrown across the opening, smashing into his unknown buddy.
~ Nepeta heard a loud thump not too far away from her, to see a pair of bodies flying through the air into the woods, and a body quickly running across the gap, too fast to recognize. She thought she saw polka dotted pants, but dismissed the thought, quickly trying to cover herself up.
~ Gamzee threw the human at the other figure, and quickly ran across to the other side. He grabbed both figures midair and ran deep into the woods, them trailing behind.
About 30 seconds, he decided he was good, because he didn't wanna get lost too badly, and stopped. The bodies that were trailing behind him now hit a tree a couple feet from him, breaking it. He looked down, saw a penny, and bent down to pick it up. A blade decided to fly right where his head had been, hitting a tree a bit back. Gamzee looked up to see a troll standing up.
Since it wasn't mentioned, both figures wore trenchcoats with hats. But the human's was the normal light brown, as the troll's was red, blue, teal, and gray.
"You seem like a peculiar motherfucker" Gamzee said to the troll.
"Look who's talking. An Indigo blood saving a green blood. Also with such speed and strength not expected from such a slim figure" she said.
The voice was feminine. "Blood shouldn't matter to a motherfucker. And it's never good to judge based on looks" Gamzee replied.
The she-troll gave him a wicked smile. "Its true. My mistake. I thought this idiot could take care of you" she gestured towards the unconscious human.
Gamzee gave a small smile, then snapped his serious face on. "Now to the point motherfucker. I had only assumed, but now I know. Why are you motherfuckers after Nepeta?"
"The green blood? Work, of course. Nothing personal."
Theres the answer. Work. Same as Jaecks. "So tell me. Do you know a motherfucker by the name of Jaecks?"
Her eyes narrowed at him. "Coworker. How do you know him?"
"Met the motherfucker today. Tried killing me because of 'work'."
She gave a slim smile. "So you're Makara, Gamzee."
She walked up to him and put her face near his, making him flinch just a bit. "And I must say, you're much cuter than I thought you'd be."
She pushed her lips against his. Gamzee went wide eyed and jumped back a couple feet. "What in the mirthful fuck?" he said.
She licked her lips. "Not bad. Though, as much as I'd like to have fun, I have a mission to go on."
She picked up the human and started walking. "Afraid I can't let ya do that." Gamzee said, gripping his clubs.
The troll smiled. "Can't allow you to stop me." she said, putting the human down, pulling out a retractable lance, pulling it fully out and clicking the blade in place.
She then took off her trenchoat revealling a long sleeved black and red shirt with purple and blue skinny jeans.
Gamzee held a club up, preparing for a fight. She lunged at Gamzee, but he easily parried. The lance struck at him a few times in quick succession, Gamzee just parried each strike with one club, keeping the other tensed at his side. She struck faster, spinning the lance, striking with each end, making Gamzee used both clubs to block.
Gamzee finally went on the offensive and started striking back. The female troll smiled as he did so, blocking as she had to step back. He quickened his strikes a bit, putting very slightly more power into them. She was able to keep up with both clubs, almost tripped over her human companion, and quickly kicked him over. "No compassion for a motherfucker huh?"
She smiled, parrying a strike at her head. "I couldn't care less about humans, or any low bloods for that matter." she said grinning "They're just lowly scum in this world that don't deserve to live. Just like you, Indigo blood" she spat the words like venom.
Gamzee slowed his strikes a bit, remembering Jaecks having a similar loathe for lower bloods. And he finally noticed she had two different colored eyes as well. One magenta, the other a royal blue. He hopped a couple feet back. "Mind telling a motherfucker about them eyes?"
She pondered on it for a second. "That's a secret. You're cute, but that's not enough" her phone chose that moment to ring.
She kept her eyes on Gamzee listening to the other voice. "Fineeee. But you owe me!" she said loudly closing her phone.
She sighed and picked up the human. "I'm sorry hun, but I gotta go" she smiled, retracting the lance.
Gamzee looked confused. He heard a big movement from the bush behind him. He turned to look, and everything went black.
