Description
You kept walking quickly following the wagon trails. So close! They were maybe a half days away, less even the tracks were getting deeper. You could get there if you could run a little bit more. If you could just get there, you were so close you could taste it. With an over amount of joy you barely heard the troll trying to catch up to your fast pace.

"_______! _______! Will you sloww dowwn! " he stumbled a bit, causing you to turn around.

"Hurry up! We're almost there!" You turned around to excited to see him stop and catch his breath.

You noticed the halted footsteps and stopped, turning to see Eridan panting. With a smirk you walked over and crossed your arms.

"What's wrong, did all the spoiling at the caravan make you a little out of shape?" you giggled when he let out a breathy growl, it held no real threat.

"It’s not that!” He snapped at you, holding his arm to his ribs.

You suddenly became very aware of where his gash was and now saw he was covering it. You walked over to help him sit, "fatigue." He muttered, that was the worst excuse and you both knew it. You reached over to his shirt and lifted it to see the wound was opening back up, purple blood was slowly dripping down his side.

"Not again." You sighed, all the sprinting had opened it, you rummaged in the bag thankful you had more bandages.

You began to patch him up, if this wound kept coming loose it was going to be a real problem when you caught up with the she troll.

'If a wound keeps opening it can be closed by a hot coal or rock. It'll hurt for a moment but the cut will stay closed if you keep something on it.' Old Mag's instructions rang in your
ears, oh he was going to hate you for this.

You made a small fire and put a small rock in its center waiting for it to heat up. The caused the troll to raise an eyebrow, and look at you questioningly. You said nothing looking at the fire. He was really going to hate you for this. It had been thirty minutes of Eridan demanding what you were doing, and you simply replying with a "you'll see, you're not going to like it but it'll fix you." With a bit of your lip you moved the stick to see the rock, heat rolling off of it, and set a wrapping on it. With skill and gentle care you were able to get the rock onto the wrapping. Turning around you saw Eridan's eyes get as wide as gems. He began trying to get away but you pulled out the dagger pinning his shirt to the ground. He turned growling and snarling. With a roll of your eyes you tried to put it on him.

"WWHAT THE ANGLING FUCK DO YOU THINK YA DOING?!" he shouted trying to pull the dagger out of his shirt, and the second he did you had straddled his hips.

He froze in shock a deep purple color across his cheeks as you lifted his the shirt to get to the wound. He didn't even notice when you were getting to the wound. Oh but he felt it…

"GLUBBIN FUCK!" he screamed so loud you thought the she troll heard him.

"Shh, shh." You whispered and kept the bandage on him wound.

"DON'T YOU FUCKING SOOSH ME!" he yelled, snarling.

"Shoosh,shoosh." You lightly tapped the grey skin, each tap was followed by a shoosh.

This helped, not much. You sighed in agitation and tried to figure out what to do. Kissing him would only result in yells and screams after you were done. You faintly recalled a soft sound of clicks when you were crying.Eridan had held you and those soft clicks had calmed you down.

‘For a matesprite or grub.' You had no idea what it was but it was important considering his blush from earlier.

'might as well try.' You sighed, leaning close to his ear.

A soft click, a whisper maybe sounded in his ear. It was accompanied by a soft purr from your chest. He stopped squirming and you pulled away. He stared at you, still in pain but not as much. More like a curiosity and shock that you were able to do that. You smiled and kissed his nose.

"Just a little bit longer, okay?" You spoke, keeping the rock pressed against him.

He winched but nodded, wishing for it to go by faster. He grunted and shifted under you, hips raising slightly against you, causing a blush to fall over you and a deeper red to stain him.

"Uh…so…um…what's a matesprite?" you asked, desperate to take some of the edge off the compromising position you were in.

"It’s…it’s...UHM…" He could barely think with you on top of him.

That simple realization made one of the voices cackle in perverted glee.

"Hellooo? Eridan, hey anybody in there?" you tilted you head, noticing his dazed look, he snapped out of it instantly.

"It’s um someone who is really close to OW you..” He finally figured how to make his mouth work and blushed.

Precious. You felt something flutter in your heart, he thought you precious. You pulled the rock off of his side and saw the wound had closed up his skin. You helped him stand and slip his shirt on.

"Time to go." He nodded and walked with you.

The road seemed endless, you were still walking as night fell. You could feel the ridges from the wagon. You knew they were ahead just a little longer. The walking seemed to pay off as you spotted a large wagon. A familiar blue sitting next to a white with red sleeves shirt. John and Dave. You went to rush for the wagon but Eridan caught you pulling you into his chest as a blueblood walked by. You had forgotten this was going to be a little difficult.

"Do wwe ewen hawe a plan?" he hissed but his eyes shined with a protectiveness that was uncommon to human eyes.

"Uh heh haven't exactly thought that far...to be honest i didn’t think we’d get here..." You smiled nervously, watching as he resisted the urge to face palm.

You glanced around and noticed the wagon under some trees and the trees around you. You needed to get up and make sure you didn't make a sound when you got to the wagon.

"I have an idea. Can you lift me into that tree? If I can get there I can get to the lock” He looked at you as if you were insane but nodded anyways.

"Well give me a lift." You smiled looking up.

Instead of a lift you felt yourself being pulled into a kiss, one that was riddled with love and passion. You melted into the kiss, giving in all so easily to the unspoken words between you both.

‘I can’t lose you.’

'You won't I swear.'

You felt him lift you up by the waist and settle you on his shoulders. Taking a deep breath you looked at the other tree, distancing the jump. The deep brown bark dug into the bottom of your feet as you ran and leapt across the space, the firelight catching your figure for only a moment before you were safe in the tree. You watched behind the leaves as a blue blood looked at the tree you just leapt from. Quiet but not so skilled to not leave a trace. You had to be careful on working your way over. You did looking out into the camp every so often. You balanced on a limb above the wagon before you noticed. The she troll…she wasn't in the camp… Your eyes flicked around trying to find some place she'd be only to come up with nothing but that morning star near an opposite tree. It worried you but you had to free the others. Taking a deep breath you eased out of the tree and slid down the bars silently. You lightly tapped a boy with a blue shirt. John jumped and turned to see you.

"________!" He whisper yelled in joy.

Dave turned to see you and you could've sworn you saw a smirk on his lips.

"I'm going to have to get help to get you out." Dave nodded and fished out some old metal shards from his sword and handed them over.

Careful not to cut yourself you slowly began to pick the lock. Slowly you listened to the small clicks of the lock. You opened it and began to usher them out, John and Dave helping the few out. When you'd gotten only a few of them out a loud scream caused you to turn around. The she troll was holding Eridan, that grim smile on her face.

"I know YOU ArE thErE, hUmAn. cOmE OUt If YOU wAnt hIm tO lIvE." She shook him slightly making his vision blur.

"John, Dave get them out of here." You growled, slipping into the shadows.

As they went to reach out to help two large blue bloods shoved the others into the wagon as John and Dave escaped only barely to see you holding the rather heavy morning star.

"You want me. You got me." You growled swinging it colliding with the back of her leg.

A loud and inhuman screech filled the air as she threw the royal blood to the ground. She whipped around snatching you up and pushing you against a tree.

"hOw mAnY tImEs dO I hAvE tO kIll YOU?" she growled ignoring the sounds of chain links clinking together behind her.

Eridan picked up the morning star and hit it against her knee. Another screech and her eyes narrowed at the troll. A blue blood gripped the Aquarius arms and held him still. The she troll leaned in close to your face.

"YOU wErE jUst As hElplEss As A child." A grin cracked on her face, and you gasped, " stAY InsIdE And bE A gOOd gIrl."

Your ears were pounding with the sound of your heart. She laughed and pulled you around sitting down against the tree. She nodded and the blue blood punched Eridan's side, the one with the wound. You were certain something was going to break.

"NO! STOP IT!" the blue blood didn't stop only kept abusing the troll you loved in front of you despite your constant screams. He wasn't standing anymore, the blue blood was holding him up no able to hold his own weight.

"sIncE kIllIng YOU dOEsn't wOrk I hAvE A chOIcE tO mAkE. I cAn kIll hIm hErE, Or lEt thE grAnd hIghblOOd pUnIsh hIm fOr mInglIng wIth YOU, pEhAps the COndIsEndAncE wOUld pAy mOrE fOr DUAlscAr’s sOn..." she nodded at the blue blood who put pressure on the troll, making him groan out in pain.

"NO! NO!" You cried reaching for him, she grinned.

"thE hIghblOOd It Is." She stood not expecting the blow to her head and legs as John helped Dave get extra power behind his swing.

She screamed out dropping you to the ground. John raced forwards grabbing you up and taking you above the grip of her hands and Dave began to pick up the morning star for another swing but John yelled.

"Dave we have to leave!" He yelled as you went to pull out of his grip.

"No! No! Eridan!" you screamed through tears as John flew past the trees, you kicking and screaming the whole way as Dave disappeared.

The she troll stood huffing, and grabbed up the indigo blood and lashed him to the front of the wagon. He was bleeding everywhere and panting for breath that he couldn't seem to get.

"dOn't dIE On mE nOw, EvEn bEAtEn thE HIGHBLOOD wIll stIll rEwArd me.” She grinned petting his head, "And don't wOrrY AbOUt thAt lIttlE hUmAn Of YOUrs I'll tAkE gOOd cArE Of hEr."

He snarled, snapping, and struggling against the binds. He couldn't feel anything as he pulled on them the blood dripping down his body.

"DON’T YOU DARE TOUCH HER, OR I’LL SLAUGHTER YOU!" he yelled only to earn a chuckle.

"Of cOUrsE, Of cOUrsE." She walked away staring at the wood you were pulled into.

She growled, looking at the blue blood to her side, "fInd thEm And brIng thEm bAck AlIvE, Or I'll UsE YOUr hEAd As mY Own pErsOnAl fOOt rEst. UndErstAnd?"

He shivered and nodded looking to the woods.
