"Damn, and here I thought you'd jump at the idea. I do understand about being short, however. When shortie over here stopped growing I almost cried. Then murdered everyone and felt /so/ much better."

I laughed. "I'm sure you did. It's so soothing. Maybe after he has a growth spurt. Or if he doesn't, sooner."

"The sooner, the better. I'm tired of hearing 'oh no please no I could never turn another person. That's terrible and bad. I can't embrace who I really am at all and have to me this forever angsty person.'" I imitated Terezi's obnoxious whining about how ~~BAD~~~ she was.

I then heard a thud from outside . As if something jumped onto the bed of the truck. "Looks like she caught on quick." I frowned.

2015-05-02 23:59:42

🌀

"Mother of fuck. Gun it!" How had she caught up?! I twisted in my seat to look out the window at the figure in the back. Goth vampire bitch? I must have missed a lot. And...god/dammit/. Was that Seccy? HOW THE FUCK. These two just never quit, do they? Whatever. He looked hurt, so he probably wouldn't be that much of an issue. I couldn't catch the girl's, but his thoughts were a mess of pain and worry. Whatever Cally'd done to him, it brought me great joy.

Good heavens, this was a horrible idea. I caught up, gasping for every sharp, aching breath. Darling leaned out the window and gaped at me. She'd kidnapped him?? Was he hurt? No, that couldn't be right. At the very least he'd be asleep right now. Then he grinned at me and I scowled. Of course. The arse.

"Nah, go big or go home. " I hopped out of the truck. Anndrea had her gaze locked onto me. Boy, she was pissed.Oh, would you look at that. She had Terezi's knife. "Oh did you find that toy in her closet? how nice." I threw out my arms. "YOU WANT ME SO BAD? COME AND GET ME! I'LL TAKE YOU TO HELL WITH ME."

Anndrea lunged for me. Ah yes, let the battle begin.

2015-05-03 00:22:33

🌀

I opened the door too and climbed out. Fine, if I was gonna lose it soon, may as well go out with a bang. And a snap. And the splatter of blood on the asphalt. I cracked my knuckles and sauntered towards Seccy.

He was coming towards me. Prepared for a fight, was he? I'd rather not. Besides, I would hate to hurt darling, no matter how much Louhkie deserves a right hook to the jaw. So instead I took a step backwards, one arm tight over my chest, and said "You cannot win and you know it; in a few moments you'll be gone and I'll still be here. Save yourself the trouble and release him now."

"Come on, feathers, why would I give you the easy way out? Get over here before I break your neck."

"As if that wasn't your original intention."

"Eh. Can't argue with that. Alright, I'll make your death SLIGHTLY less painful. How about that?"

"When Hell freezes over." I ran for it. At the very least, it would keep him from helping the other devil with fighting Anndrea. He made chase, as I'd hoped.

The thing about two vampires fighting, is that we can be as bloody as we want. no matter how many kicks, scratches, cuts. We'll still be kicking. Though most of damage was done by me. Looks like the knife was just a bluff. She couldn't hurt "dear Terezi."

I threw her against the truck, leaving a dent in it. "You're conflicted, aren't you?" I grinned. "You want me dead but you know it will hurt Terezi in the process."

"...No. I am not afraid of you. " She tried to step back but I pushed her against the truck again, causing her to drop the knife.

"BITCH I KNOW YOU LIKE THE BACK OF MY HAND!"

She looked at me, and threw herself onto me. In suprise, I fell to the pavement. Wait was she-SHIT, SHIT. NOPE NOPE NO YOU'RE NOT-

The other girl passed out onto of me, and the world around me quickly became black as well.

🌀

GODDAMMIT. He was like a FOOT taller than me, so he matched me stride for stride, even with the injuries and fucking devil powers. Where was he even running?! I think we just went in a giant circle! I was starting to get a little out of breath when we arrived back at the truck and I saw the girls unconscious on the ground. The fuck? Wait, I was on my own now. FUCK. No point now. RETREAT!

I heard a thud behind me and stopped, wheezing, to turn and look. He'd collapsed? Thank God, he must have released darling. I went to him and rolled him onto his back. Poor dear. He'd been through a lot tonight, and he would hardly remember any of it. Then I straightened, wincing, to carefully approach the truck and the two beside it. It seemed as if Anndrea had returned, and the other one had been subdued. And so I found myself, once again, the only person conscious. I was also again in no shape to carry anyone, so with a groan, I sat down against the side of the truck and gingerly touched the shoeprint on my chest. It hurt a lot, but perhaps it wasn't entirely broken. A fracture, perhaps? That didn't mean it wasn't unhealthy to leave untended. I'd have to deal with that later, though, for now I just had to make sure the wrong people didn't wake up, and in the wrong bodies, at that.

Terezi's eyes fluttered open first. Where was she? What happened? Why did she-WHY WAS SHE TOPLESS. She sat up and immediately covered herself with her arms, trying to find her shirt.

2015-05-03 01:02:57

🌀

Terezi sat up first, and -- GOODNESS GRACIOUS. I hadn't even noticed, since Anndrea/Ivory had always been blocking her. I turned red and looked aside, putting up a hand as a sort of shield and receiving a small ache for my trouble. "Y-you're awake, good, um, how are you, how are you feeling...?"

2015-05-03 01:05:24

●

"...Um...Um.." She stuttered, and immediately saw her shirt inside the door of the truck. This was beyond embarrassing for her. Quickly, she grabbed it and put it on her. Never in her life had she felt so exposed. "Well, I'm wide awake now." She couldn't even keep her gaze on him.

2015-05-03 01:09:47

🌀

"That's....that's good...do you remember anything?" It was unlikely, but always good to ask. I bit my lip and lowered my hand a little to check if she was decent. Thank God.

2015-05-03 01:20:37

●

She frowned. "No..why? By judging how things are, it wasn't good." She slowly sat back down,

2015-05-03 01:27:20

🌀

"No, I'd say you're accurate on that account. We missed most of the event, though, so that will probably remain a mystery..." I sighed and returned my hand to my chest, eyes on the ground. "...I'm sorry, I think this may have all been my fault. Your angel tried to possess you so she could see me at work, and...something went wrong, I suppose. Your devil took over. She'd been keeping her asleep. I'm sorry...."

2015-05-03 01:29:55

●

"Oh....well that sounds like a horrible thing to begin with, but I don't think it's your fault." She glanced down at his hand. "...are you hurt?"

2015-05-03 01:36:04

🌀

I dropped my hand. "I'm fine. Probably. It'll heal by itself. Human bodies do that, right?" When darling had sprained his ankle, that had fixed itself as long as he kept from using it. Of course, it was difficult to keep from using my lungs, so maybe that didn't always apply.

2015-05-03 01:49:06

●

"Yeah but...not like vampires do." There wasn't damn thing she /could/ do about it. Wounds were not specialty. Only scratches and punctures could she even come close to fixing.

2015-05-03 01:50:46

🌀

".....I'll still be fine. Right now I'm more worried about you and Ivory, you beat each other up pretty badly, are you--" I coughed, raising my hand again to my mouth to cover it, and along with the ache found it stained slightly red. "...oh dear. So, are you alright?"

2015-05-03 01:55:22

●

She immediately smelt the blood. Yeah, no. Not alright. "I'm fine... but it's obvious that you aren't, here let me-"

Her words were cut off when a nicer looking black car pulled up. Who was- wait. She knew that car. /Oh shit./ Lance was here.

2015-05-03 02:05:16

🌀

I shook my head and narrowed my eyes at the other car. Who on Earth would stop for a group of unconscious people on the side of the road next to the woods in the middle of the night? ...virtually everyone I know, actually. Which narrowed the possibilities a bit.

Cale was in the backseat, a bruise growing on his stomach and his uninjured arm holding a clump of tissues to his broken nose. Motherfucker was going to PAY.

2015-05-03 02:09:17

●

Lance stepped out of the car, and he had the expression of someone who was about to set fire to this entire earth. Immediately he walked over to Ivory and picked her up. Terezi stood up.

"Lance, I can-"

"Terezi, just shut up about it for now. Who else is injured?"

She looked to the ground. "Seculus."

2015-05-03 02:13:26

🌀

Wait. Why was he angry at her? Did he--? Ah, oh God, what had the devil done while she'd had her? "Lance, whatever you believe she may have done, it wasn't her, alright? Trust me, it's not her fault, please don't be upset with her." He had no reason to trust me, but I hoped he would. I looked him in the eye before I had to lower my gaze to cough into my fist again.

2015-05-03 02:19:45

●

Lance's gaze went from Terezi Seculus's, his expression not faltering. He was quiet for the longest time. "He needs help Lance. Help that I can't give him."

"...Get him in the car." He walked over and placed Ivory in the passenger seat.

"What about Tassek?"

"I think you should probably take him home yourself."

2015-05-03 02:24:11

🌀

I pushed myself to my feet with a wince and slowly followed him to the car. I hated to leave her here, but it probably wouldn't help her case any if I was present when darling woke up, and besides, cooperating with Lance seemed like a really, /really/ good idea right now. I'd rather not get my head ripped off. I've gotten quite attached to it. Eheh. I looked back at Terezi regretfully and gave her what I hoped was a reassuring thumbs-up before getting in.

A guy got into the car beside him and he nearly shoved him right back out onto the asphalt before realizing that it wasn't the kid. Who the hell was this? He looked a little similar to Tassek, but not much, and was way too tall. More than anything he resembled Zane, and that kept him from getting /too/ much on Cale's nerves. He still pushed himself to the far end of the seat, though, eyeing him suspiciously.

2015-05-03 02:34:21

●

Terezi nodded at Seculus and watch the three of them get into the car before driving off. Once they were gone, she grabbed her hoodie and slid it back onto her body. She just wanted to hide right now.

Once they were away from that mess of a situation, Lance glanced at Seculus from the rear view mirror. "So you want to tell me /your/ side of the story?" He asked.
