You stand outside of her door, hesitating for a moment. Maybe this isn't a good idea. Maybe it's taking things too far. Before you can change your mind, the door swings open and she stands before you.
"Hey John." She says, showing off her fangs with a sly grin, "I haven't seen you around much this past week."
"Yea, I've been a bit busy."
Lies.
In truth, you had been kind of avoiding her. You used to think she was super cool and a really awesome friend, but then you realized that she is kind of crazy. And that she scares you. Then again, she probably scares everyone. Which is why you are currently standing in front of her door.
"Well I'd love to hear all about it. Come on in."
She steps to the side, letting you into her room. She closes the door loudly behind you, making you flinch just a little. You hope she didn't notice that. She sits down on the only chair in the room and seeing that there is no other place to sit, you make yourself comfortable on the floor.
"So John, what brings you to my respite block?" She asks, leaning back.
"Actually, I have a favor to ask."
"Oh really? You know, it's not polite to go around asking for things without offering anything in return."
"Of course. Whatever you want. I mean, as long as you don't make me do anything awful or hurt someone or something."
She rolls her eyes.
"You're so boring John, no wonder I broke up with you."
She contemplates for a moment.
"But, I suppose I can think of something that fits your criteria."
She sticks out her hand and you shake it before you can second-guess yourself.
"So John, what do you want?"
"I want to get back at Karkat. He did something that made me… that I… he did something stupid and I want to get revenge."
You can see her eyes light up as a grin spreads across her face. Maybe this wasn't the best idea…
"Let me get this straight. You, boy-Skylark, the Windsock Wonder, Egderp Extraordinaire, want to get revenge on little old Karkles? You can't just tell me that and expect me not to wonder what he could have done to earn your pitiful rage."
"That wasn't part of our deal." You say.
She rolls her eyes again, but you hold your ground. You really would rather not have to explain what happened and why it bothered you so much.
"Fine, but you owe me!"
"So what's the plan? How do I get back at him?"
She ponders for a moment.
"Obviously I'll have to do all the work, because it's not like you'll be able to get anything done on your own."
She slides over to her desk and starts scribbling something in a small notebook.
"But, there is one thing you can do."
She rips the page out and hands it to you. There is a code written on it.
"Find someone who can hack into Vantas's computer and retrieve this file. It's password protected, but it shouldn't be that hard to get to."
"What should they do with it?" You ask.
"Have them send it to me. I'll take it from there."
She stretches her arms above her head and stands up. You follow her lead and get to your feet as well.
"And what do you want as payment?"
She grins.
"I'll let you know later."
Be Future Terezi.
