Back at John's house, Kanaya sits on the couch holding Rose in her arms.
"Thank you, Kanaya." Rose pauses, "You saved me."
John works on bandaging the others.
"okay, anyone else?"
"I'm alright, John," Rose pauses, feeling the bandage around her neck, "Thank you."
"I Am Fine Thank You John"
"you already helped me." Dave calmly says, looking at his right hand.
"1M GOOD."
"i've been helped already." He pauses, "kk, have y0u been helped?"
"ALL I NEED BANDAGED FOR IS MY FUCKING ARM."
John smiles and walks over to Karkat.
"alright." He says, starting to wrap up the wound.
"Thank you again, Kanaya." Rose whispers.
"I Couldnt Let You Turn Into One"
Sollux could hear what they were saying.
"at least we kn0w theres a way t0 st0p the venom."
John giggles a little, wrapping up his own wounds.
"its true, im glad youre here kan."
"R4INBOW DR1NK3R." Terezi grins.
"But The Problem Is That I have To Cough The Venom Out," Kanaya pauses, "After I Suck It Out"
"that's true, and we should watch out for rose too," Dave pauses, "just to be safe."
"i agree with, strider." Sollux nods.
"well just be careful." John adds.
"I Got All The Venom Out She Should Be Fine"
"that's n0t the p0int kanaya, the ven0m c0uld have left s0me negative effects fr0m being inside her." Sollux huffs.
John looks at the group, finally bandaged.
"i think we all need to take it easy for a few days."
"Yeah, your probably right." Says Rose.
"I Wont Let Anything Negative Happen To You Rose"
Rose smiles gently and puts her head on Kanaya's chest and falls asleep.
"I GUESS WE ARE ALL GOING TO SLEEP HERE?"
"that sounds good." John yawns, sitting next to Karkat.
"H3Y, WH3R3 SHOULD 1 SLEEP?"
"wherever you want, i guess." Dave yawns.
"COME HERE TEZ, I HAVE ANOTHER ARM."
Kanaya pulls the blanket up.
"Sleep Well Rose Good Night"
Terezi smiles and goes and lays on Karkat's okay arm, already half asleep.
"good night." John yawns, yet another time.
A few hours pass, Kanaya opens her eyes awake, everyone else was asleep, except Sollux and Dave. She sits there frightened as the cold sweat washes down her face. Dave happens to look up, without his shades on, sees that she is awake.
"yo, kan, you okay?" Dave asks in a whisper.
"whats wr0ng?" Sollux adds.
"Just Another Nightmare," Kanaya pauses, in a whisper, "What Are You Two Doing Up This Late"
"mines the same as yours." Says Dave.
"i never fell asleep, c0uldn't st0p thinking ab0ut feferi," Sollux motions to her to go sit with them, "c0me, sit with us."
Kanaya looks down, sees that Rose has her arms around Kanaya's waist, still asleep on her chest.
"I Cant Move"
"john was asleep on me, she will be fine if you scoot her over." Dave says.
"just be aware 0f p0ssible w0unds."
"She Has Her Arms Around My Waist"
Kanaya feels her chest becoming lighter.
"Rose Are You Alright"
"Nightmare" replies Rose, tiredly.
"well, why don't both of you join us?"
"its better than n0thing."
Kanaya helps Rose down to the ground to the other two.
"I don't feel so well." Rose says, softly.
Kanaya holds her in her arms. Dave watches Rose, concerned.
"what's wrong?"
Kanaya begins to think.
"I Have Some Anti Venom"
"g00d thinking, kanaya."
"But Its At My Hive"
"great."
"I Can Go Grab It"
"n0, dave and i will."
"I Rather Not Have You Two Go" Kanaya pauses, "Stay Here And Watch Over Rose I Will Be Back"
"kanaya, you aren't going."
"dave and i will get it."
"No I Will"
"kanaya, you're still injured from that scratch from nepeta, stay with rose," he pauses, "we will get the anti-venom."
"Its In A Safe With A Finger Print Code I Have To Get It"
Kanaya leaves the room back to Alternia before the other two could say. She lied to them about the safe.
"think we should go after her?" asks Dave.
"n0, lets give her s0me time first." Sollux answers.
Kanaya goes to her closet searching for the bottle of anti-venom. She sees the small vile full of purple liquid, she takes it into her hand and heads back to the teleporter. She sets it to go back to John's place and presses the button, but nothing happened.
"Oh No"
….
Back at John's place Dave and Sollux sit there, worried about the safety of Kanaya.
"how much longer?" asks Dave.
"i d0n't kn0w." Sollux pauses, "it sh0uldn't take this l0ng."
…
Kanaya starts to worry.
"Work Please Work"
But the button doesn't take her back.
"No No No"
…..
Dave stands up and goes to check the teleporter. He sees that something was wrong.
"sollux?" he pauses, "something's wrong."
Sollux follows him.
"what?"
…
Kanaya tries again, but it doesn't work.
"Its Not Working Am I Stuck Here"
…..
Dave clenches his fist.
"Dammit!"
Sollux looks at it.
"shut it. if the 0thers wake up," he pauses, "it all g0es t0 hell." give me s0metime, and ill have it w0rking again."
Dave looks at him.
"kanaya's in alternia," he pauses, "probably fighting."
"and if y0u d0n't shut up, we w0nt be able t0 help her in time."
…
Kanaya walks around, to get her mind off of things.
"Wheres The Welcoming Party"
There is laughter behind her.
"This Isnt Funny Come Out"
The laughing continues, and then stop. Chills go up Kanaya's spine, she continues to walk to where the laughter came from and then vanished.
…..
Aradia shoots up awake.
"kanaya!"
Her scream makes everyone wake up. John rubs his eyes.
"what happened?"
Sollux yells from outside.
"i finally g0t the fucking thing w0rking again!"
Aradia looks around.
"where is kanaya?"
"Getting anti-venom." Rose says.
"i just saw her disappearing."
Everyone's eyes widen.
"what do you mean araida?"
Dave runs into the room.
"guys! you have to come, and quick." He pauses, "kanaya's gone!"
