oh ****. tree2 tree2 tree2 tree2 get behiind a tree.

oh 2hiit i2 that a cerulean? thii2 wa2 a bad iidea, ****,thii2 ii2 my fault.

*deep breath* a cerulean and purple blood pass by the tree. they seem to be hateflirting. one mentions their lowblood slave, specifically a jade and what they did last night. the purple blood laughs it off, like it isnt abuse.

the psiioniic contains his anger, and grips the tree.

he turns over, and the signless isnt there. ****

the psiioniic shook his head. what was he even going to do? ]talk them to death? his eyes were clearly noticeable. this was a bad idea.

of course it was a bad idea, but this was an even worse idea for a mutant.

the psiioniic almost sighed, but the highbloods were almost gone. it wasnt worth the risk.

the highbloods were gone.

dude. are you okay? ii-iim 2orry about that. ii know 2lavery hiit2 clo2e to home.

let2 go home. that wa2 way two clo2e.

he reached towards his hand. iitll get better. ii promii2e.

when they got home, dolorosa sent him to his room, or, biclops's old room. disciple was out hunting, and they readthrough her book of sermons. psiioniic took a deep breath. have you ever been, liike, 2pent tiime there beyond 2ermon2.

what diid you and ro2a do? you don't talk much. about your2elf, ii mean.

no. YOU ARE NOT. 2TOP IIT. knock on the door

"Boys? What's going on in there?" The Dolorosa opens the door. She screams as she sees Psiioniic leaning out the window. Psiioniic shushes her, and slowly explains.

ii need you two hold me out the wiindow.

the psiioniic leaned out the window, looking onto the tree. the dolorosa held his legs, but when he looked down, he was gone.

meanwhile, in the city, a very upset and will probably be culled the next day blueblood. his name is darkleer, and he wants to get a drink.

This was all expected. But he didn't expect this troll to come back about 3 hours later.

Darkleer: Go cull a *****. You step outside and see a burgundy blood gasping at the sight of a hooded figure. The rust blood is yelling rude insults at the hooded figure, as the troll continues onward.

Hooded Troll (SIGNLESS): Shake Darkleer's hand.

The Hooded Troll shook hands with Darkleer, and ]passed him a boonbuck. W9uld y9u like a drink? It's 9n me.

Darkleer scoffed. Such an anxious troll. The figure led him inside, and seated him inside, next to the table. He then noticed how his feet didn't even reach the ground. A little taller than a yellow blood. He passed 7 boondollars to the bartender, and turned to Darkleer. What d9 y9u want? I'll just have a water.

//so sorry i was starting to just write a story lol//

//you can be him again//

"I'll have some coffee. Got a long day today."

Darkleer sipped his coffee. This troll was very confident, for a potential lowblood. The coffee was bitter and STRONG. He stood up. He had to tell] his ]lusus where he had been. But before he left, he turned to the troll and said, "What's your name?".

Darkleer frowned. "What do you mean, you lowblooded street rat? Your superior just a%ed you a question.

Darkleer almost chortled. Let me see your eyes.

Darkleer grabbed the back of his cloak. "Well, if you'd like me to rip it of for you, I would comply." Darkleer pulled the hair on his head, and feels his nubby horns.

"No..." Darkleer ripped the cloak of his head and made eye contact. A bold red filled up his eyes, and Darkleer growled.

"Do you know what you cost me?" Darkleer hissed. "You preach of equality, and you may have cost me my life, infidel." Darkleer threw his cloak onto the ground.

"May they see you for the hideous excuse for a troll you are."

"... Why would I join you? I know my place. You seem to have forgotten yours."

Darkleer punched him in the stomach.

He put his foot onto his stomach.

"The Hemospectrum is encoded into out species. It is how it has always been, and always will be."

Darkleer snarled. Most lowbloods became stronger out of necessity, but The Signless was weak. He was small. He onnly had his voice.

His voice. His voice had inspired a revolution. His voice was in and of itself a sin. Everything he had said was a lie. It was propaganda. It was sacriligious.

Darkleer trembled. His master knew he was useful. This would prove himself... Wouldn't it? This would be his magnum opus. Maybe even the Condesce would hear of it. But perhaps... Perha]ps his master knew he was nothing compared to him. But Darkleer needed him. It was too late though. Trolls watched on. Booing The Signless, jeering at him. Darkleer understood. The Signless was mocked, and in other's eyes rightfully so. But maybe he and the Signless had more in common than he thought. He loosened his grip on the Signless, hoping the Mutant could see his chance here.

Darkleer was stunned. He couldn't believe what he just did. He opened the bar door, looking to see where he was going, but he had disappeared. His master would be very mad now.

(sure! this was really fun.)

(we made it to 151 lines!)

psi was dumbfounded. he couldnt. he couldnt have survived darkleer. we're goiing home. no more e2capade2. dii2 brought home 2ome cholerbear meat. we're not goiing two do thii2 ever agaiin.

"no. youre a dumba22. were goiing home." psi grabbed his arm and pulled him back to his hive.

"what diid you even do?"

"uhuh. anythiing el2e?"

"why? what diid you 2ay?"

"uhuh. anythiing el2e?"

"yeah we are defiiniitely goiing home."

psi throws him over his shoulder. signless could barely walk anyway. he was determined to go home.

"2uffer."

"and it2 not magiic. it2 my own mutatiion that ii2 only kept around becau2e iim u2eful."

"2ure. iit2 magiic."

"but were goiing home."

"ye2."

"ro2a know2 2ome fiir2t aiid." he picks him up with his psionics, an kind of, comforts him with the power.

"look bro. thii2 ii2 for your own good."

"ye2 iit ii2." they walked home in silence after that, and when they got home, signless changed into some new clothes and was locked in their room. psionic turned to rosa, with pain on his face.

"Nothiing. IIt's ju2t, II thought he learned hii2 le22on." Psiioniic stared at the ground. Yellow tears welled up around his eyes.

"II gue22, II gue22 II'm a liitle pale for hiim. But II expect hiim to help me two. Ugh, thii2 ii2 2tupiid."

"II gue22. But he ha2n't learned anythiing!"

"maybe later. iim gonna help dii2 prep the cholerbear."

"2triike? what doe2 that mean?"

"oh nooooooooooooo. 2hiit, what are we gonna do?"

"why not? youre ba2iically the be2t mom ever!"

"ha ha. iill go talk to hiim."

the psiioniic opened the door, expecting a signless cradling himself andn nursing his wounds. theyd have to leave the hive soon. they needed to talk about the plan.

"dude? you alright?"

"ii brought 2ome bandage2."

"what2 wrong?"

"you can tell me. we're liike, hatchmate2."

"well duh. after that 2tunt you pulled, mama bear miight do 2omethiing liike that." the psiioniic grabbed his hand. "2ay goodbye two your wriiggliing day out. but 2eriiou2ly. you 2hould 2top thii2 2triike of your2."

"okay. ro2a might have an iidea. we can compromii2e."

"2o what are you tryiing two get out of thii2?"

"youre gonna have two be more 2peciifiic."

"okay, let2 go over thii2. tell me what happened. exactly what happened."

"are you 2ure iit wa2nt an acciident? darkleer never let2 anyone do."

(gtg back at 5)

(im back. you impatient frick. >u<) "alriight. we miight be able to work 2omethiing out. iit 2ound2 iimportant. come two diinner. ii know you love cholerbear."

(its ok) Psiioniic reached for his hand, pulling him up. He was so happy that he was giving up his hunger strike.

"Bandage2?

"Uhuh. Let'2 go down2taiirs."

Psii brought up Signless's proposal during dinner to the Dolorosa.

"What do you thiink, Ro2a?"

"honey, i don't want to hold mew back, b]ut i ]don't want to lsoe mew eifur."

psi stared]] at his foo]d. this wasnt going well. "actually, there wa2 2omethiing ii needed two 2ay. we ]need two get out of here. hiighblood2 miight be trackiing u2."

]"ii had two ]break him out of jaiil, or let hiim get 2tuck there."
