------MORNING-----
You groan as you hear knocking on the door. "(Y/N), you up yet?". You make an animal like noise and pull your covers over your head. How could sleeping beauty remain flawless for hundred years of sleep , yet you turn into she hulk with ten hours of heavenly sleep.

You hear muttering from outside the door. "Hold on ladies and gentleman, the striders are here". DAVE. "(Y/N) , you better lug your sorry ass out of that bed in ten seconds or we will be on you like a mother in law for the last biscuit on the table" he yells. " 10 , 9,8..." John ,Aradia and Feferi start to count down. You grab all your blankets and curl up into a ball under a mound of pillows and sheets. "7,6,5,4..." They yell. The sound of your window opening (?) From the other side of the room startles you but you hold your ground in your pillow fort.
"3,2,1"
You hear the door being knocked down and your window being kicked open. Dirk runs in and throws off your sheets while Dave and others come in and throw water in your face. You screech and throw off your soaking covers. "I will shit on your shades if I fucking have to!" You exclaim. "Woah (Y/N) , the shades remain untouched" Dave says, pushing his shades further back onto his face.

Johns watch glares at you , the time 7:23 condescendingly written across its the face. Another groan escapes your mouth. "Why now ? You of all people should know that the morning is evil" you say , making sure to hiss the last word for emphasis. You have no idea how to explain the feeling in your gut right now with only one word. The closest thing would be to say that karkat had gone to live in your head today.

"Well we were planning on a paintball match in the garden outback seeing as john found a bunch of guns and ammo he had used for a past prank and we were wondering if you'd join us 0u0" Aradia chirped . Hmmmm. "Fine ,but let me get up mentally too before I join you" you mumble and push them towards the hallqy. "And you better fix my door!" You yell.

Clothing choice was simple. You had some overalls and a plastic cat hoodie where instead of eyes there were crosses and it was neon green. Underneath you layered up and then decided to put on a mask that covered the bottom half of your face. It looked like cosplay. It looked like freaking amazingnessisszizz.

You head down the stairs and pass the defaced hotel corridor. The fresh morning air hits you hard. Cold weather isn't your forte. Jogging round to the back , you call out to the others and are greeted by Feferi and John who are just as layered up as you. "We chose out a gun for you and a signature color scheme of paintballs seeing as the trolls thought it would be a good idea" John says , handing you a burgundy gun and a set of paintballs containing light blue, light yellow ,lilac and metallic light gray. You grin and head over to a large group.

"ALRIGHT BULGE FONDLERS , WE ARE ABOUT TO ENTER A FULL ON WARZONE WHERE ALL REMAINING HUMANITY WILL BE DISCARDED ABRUPTLY AND REPLACED WITH BLOODLUST. RULES ARE SIMPLE , DONT CHEAT AND DONT SAY THAT YOU DONT KNOW WHETHER YOU'RE CHEATING OR NOT. TEAMS WILL BE DIVIDED INTO FIVE WITH SEVEN MEMBERS ON EACH TEAM. IF YOUR CRANIUMS CANT HANDLE REMEMBERING EVERYTHING YOU JUST HEARD , GO AND COMPLAIN TO SOMEONE NOT ME. YOU GOT THAT?!"
Karkat booms. A silence sweeps over the group as you divide yourselves into teams.

The leader of your team was Rufioh after a quick vote. The members being
.You
.Rufioh
.Roxy
.Calliope
.Jake
.Jade
.Kanaya
You slowly hatch a battle plan. Jade , and you would sneak into each of the enemy's bases and take out the campers. Rufioh and Calliope would shoot from the base and protect the flag while Kanaya , Jake and Roxy would take out other wanderers.

A whistle echoed and multiple war cries sounded. Shit just got real. Jade and you signal for different directions and which base camps you would take on. You sprint off , darting behind hedges and rose bushes when a mustard paintball hits the ground beside you. "I don't have tiME FOR THIS!" you yelp as you dart behind another bush. For fucks sake Sollux. You leap up and hit the ground beside him , swearing like crazy as adrenaline takes over. You parkour dat bush real good and leap over Sollux's leaning body , kicked him down in your path. You had been wondering when the caffeine would kick in.

You see a wall and leap over , shooting two campers. Damn , you were on FIRE ! You snatch up the flag and race back to camp just in time to shoot a certain egderp. You hand the flag to Rufioh and he blows the whistle. All of that teams players leave looking miserable. Rufioh switches you and Roxy , which means you're in attack.

The whistle sounds once again and you holler across the garden earning an odd look from Kanaya. Why can't you be weird around weirdos ? A wall nears you and you leap and land with your body on top of someone else's. You lean up and apologize , your gun pointed at the persons side. Well what a coincidence , it was Dirk (note sarcasm). Dirks gray gun pushed against your chest as you realized what this meant. If he went down , you went down with him. He seemed to sense your zoning out and you snapped back just in time to see him squeeze his trigger. You pull your trigger without remorse and grit your teeth as your chest itches at the pain. You climb off Dirk and laugh weakely then hear the whistle. Your team and Dirks are off thanks to Equis's group. You walk back up to the building.

"So , (Y/N) , can we head to the lounge ?" Dirk says , interrupting your visit to the world of daydreams. "Sure I guess" you mumble half heartedly , the sting of where the paintball hit your chest causing you to flinch. Dirk looks at you and slips the top bit of your shirt down. "Dirlwaitwhatareyoudoingwaitdirkstopnowdirk"you stutter , your face turning vermilliom. "Holy crap, I didn't know the bruise was that bad" he mumbles and takes your hand , leading you back to his apartment. He opens the fridge door and takes out an ice pack , wrapping it in a cyan face towel. "Thanks..." You stutter as the cold numbs the heat of the bruise area. Without realizing what you are doing , you rest your head against dirks shoulder. He seems almost unfazed when he grins and ruffles your hair. You yawn. "Why is that I'm always tired when I'm around you of all people" you mumble as your head hits your pillow. "Maybe it just is that way". Your eyelids droop as you watch dirk pull a sheet over you.

DREAM POV
"Call out patient 007, its her break time" The voice echoes through the speaker,l.
Light leaks into the room as the door opens. You sigh and tighten your gown. "If youre going to make me swallow those pills again, consider it not -" you begin when you see Dave walk in with Nurse Jane beside him. "Oh , hi Dave" you mumble. "Break time (Y/N)" Jane says , smiling kindly. You follow Dave and Jane to the recreation room , relieved to be leaving your room. The monsters were hiding in your room and wanted you to fly again even though you said you couldn't. They wanted you to try and fly off the building top again. The monsters were idiots. Dave pushed his now limp fringe over and you remembered when he first came here. He turned up looking like any kind of pain you had experienced was nothing compared to what he had went through. He was cute you thought. You and the others entered the recreation room and headed over to a sofa. Dirk sat in the corner of the couch and stared at a piece of art on the wall opposite him. You sighed and leaned your head against Dirks shoulder. Dave sat down next to you. "So The monsters came back again" you mumble. Dave frowns and Dirk continues to stare. "They told me that I needed the pills more than anything and that I needed lots of them even though I said that they made me feel bad" you continue. Dirk leans his head back and you play with Dave's fringe. "Not that that's new news anyways ..." You finish and dig your head into Dirks shoulder while gripping Dave's hand tighter. Jane opens up the curtains across the room and you all watch the clouds . They were so light and happy looking. They could fly quietly then rest then fly once again. The clouds would fly over all the problems and never need to stop to deal with them. You wanted to be a cloud.

END of DREAM

You wake up and check your phone for texts. "What a strange dream..." You mutter while rubbing your eyes. The phone screen says "one message from Dave"
