No I don't own homestuck, our hommie Hussie does and if I did own it this pairing would be cannon ;)

Warning: this contains the good stuff which means sex and swears and gore and crap like that so yup. I'm putting this in my own world where none of them have met. Don't like the sound of this shit? Don't read It then.

Dave was sitting in the bathroom biting his lip as he slid his pocket knife over his forearm, closing his eyes as the pain shot through his arm blood coating his fresh cut and the knife. He was beaten up at school again and on top of that all of his things had been moved from his apartment in Texas to Washington. They were leaving. Dave took his knife closing it as he heard a knock on the door. It was bro signalling that they needed to go catch their plane. Dave sighed and started to rinse his arm pulling his sleeve back down before emerging to see bro standing there waiting.

"You ready there lil' man" bro raied a brow above the shades visably earning a slight nod from dave. bro smirked and started to flashstep down the stairs. Dave followed trudging slightly as he jogged down the stairs hissing slightly as he trashed wrists stung.

Dave reached the bottom and sighed finding his bro in a taxi. Joining him, The younger strider sighed softly and looked at the building as it slowly became just a memory. It was a silent ride the whole way there, with the ocasional sigh. They arived at the airport and dave snuck his blade that he had hidden in his pocket into his checked bagage before handing it to the clerk. he then proceded to go through security not taking his shades off. they only let that slide because he was somehow wearing shades in his passport photo.

Once on the plane dave glanced at his wrists since his bro had put them in first class he had no hovering eyes. The blond sighed and pulled his sleeves back down agaim and the plane took off. The stress that Dave was feeling put pressure on him and he fell asleep being awoken by Brosef after they landed. Dave was a little groggy but slowly stood up and followed. He got into their awaiting car that had been sent there in a truck with another large sigh and as they drove he stared out the window at the new scenery.

"This should be good for you man. Cheer up. It's a new begining. So cheer up kid cause school starts tomorrow" Bro was trying o lighten the load on his little brother but simply made it worse. So many images of people dave had just met in his new school beating the living crap out of him sprang into mind and he began to chew on his lip nervously.

The oldr Strider pulled into the driveway of a rather large house and turned off the car and got out going and opening it up as The younger Strider got out and slowly walked into the new home that was almost the exact same as their apartment Just more seperated. Dave had to go up stairs to get to his room and sighed contently as he saw that it was set up as closely to his room back in Huston.

Apearently bro had hiered people to set their shit up so they could move in. dave simply curled up on his bed and fell asleep, not even close to hungry with what was happening.

Dave was awoken the next morning by the beeping of his alarm clock. First day in Brooklyn was also the first day in a new school. Dave got up and grabbed his lugage that bro had brought in and grabbed his knife after pulling off his shirt. He once again slide the sharp medal over his flesh but this thime it was on is bicep. The teen did this multiple times before realizing that there was in fact a bathroom joined to his room.

Dave rushed into the bathroom and stripped hopping into the shower and turning on the water letting it run over his freshly cut flesh. The wet Strider sighed and closed his eyes thinking about his first day and how it might go before there was a knock at the bathroom door. It was his brother yet again.

"Dave you need to get ready for school so hurry your ass up" Bro yelled through the door and Dave complied by turning off the water and got out, wrapping a towel around his waist and poked his head out the door to see if Bro was still there.

"Look man. I need to get dressed and I won't do it with you in my room" The younger Strider looked at the older who nodded and left the room closing the door. Dave slowly came out of his bathroom and went to his closet finding all of his longsleeved shirts slipping one of over his head. he grabbed a pair of boxers from the shelf and a pair of pants sliding them both on and getting his backpack ready and leaving his room after grabing his phne and putting on his shades.

Bro noticed Dave trying to slip out of the house. "Dave you need to get your lunch" Dave simply shook his head "And at least have some breakfast" he simply shook his head again.

"I'm not hungry right now and I have some cash on me" Dave said as he looked over his shoulder and put on his converse all stars and walked out of the house. He climbed into his red and black vintage convertable mustang sighing softly as he rubbed his temples before there was a roar from the engine starting. He pulled out of their driveway and floowed the address that was writen on a sticky note on his horn.

He pulled into the parkinglot and parked in a spot as close to the school as he posibly could. He turned off the car and got out being sure to lock his car. There were people staring at him, the new kid, and his rad car. He knew that the eyes were on him because he looked at everyone behind shades that hid his eyes and emotions all though he already did that.

He walked into the school and felt all the stares and a few girls giggling in the crowded halls as he made his way to the office. He walked in to be greeted by the secretary who got Dave's timetable and handed it to the blond with a warm smile.

"Mister Strider please do remove your sunglasses. It is very disrespectful" The princaple said frowning and Dave sighed.

"Look sir. I have a medical condition where my eyes are sensitive to light and I would love to not be sent home due to a terrible headache" Dave was simply looking at the man behind him before looking at his timestable and seeing that his first class was gym and sighing heavily.

Dave didn't like gym because it involved getting changed. He didn't tell anyone he cut himself not even his older brother. He looked at the secretary who was talking to someone on the phone so he just bit his lip and looked at the principle.

"Could you show me to the gym please sir?" Dave raised his brows and the man nodded. He started to walk to the gym with the blond following closely behind. He entered the gym and gulped seeing the whole gym was filled with teens in grade ten which was the grade he was in. Most of them being guys and seeming like the bullies from Huston. Big, bulky, tough and mean.

The principle left and Dave was left there alone to introduce himself. He watched as a small boy came out of the change-room in a pair of shorts and a white tee with a green ghost on it. He looked dorky with his buck teeth and glasses.

The next thing dave knew was that he was surrounded by girls. "Oh my god where are you from?!"

"You totally should hang with me sometimes!"

"What's your name?"

"You seem so cool! If only I knew your type of girl!"

All of a sudden they all fell silent and parted as a girl came down the small isle up to dave. She was kinda tall but still shorter than Dave. She had a small party of macho looking guys behind her.

"My names Vriska Serket. What might your name be newbie?" Her tone was rather intimidating but dave raised his head remembering that bro said it was a new beginning.

"Dave. Dave Strider." Dave was panicking inside but didn't show it as he stood there looking down at the girl with long hair that covered her left eye. She was really scaring the shit out of Dave when she smiled. It was a menacing smile.

"Well Dave we would like you to join our little band of friends here. We're the cool kids around these parts and you seem like you'd fit in just fine" Dave looked at all the guys but smirked and nodded. She smirked back and turned around going through her gang."Come along then Strider. I want you to meet our favourite little punching bag"

Dave followed closely behind as he did with the principal and saw that she pointed to the little nerdy boy. He hadn't seen the bandages on his arms till that moment as the slim boy came up reluctantly. Vriska turned to Dave after pulling in the still unknown boy in.

"This here is John Egbert. He's a little tiny shit who never does anything but get amazing grades. Johnny boy. I'd love to have you meet the bran new kid here," she shoved John at Dave who caught him by the arms looking down at him "that's Dave Strider. He's with us and you'll be doing his homework along with ours this whole week."

Dave was staring down into the beautiful deep sea blue orbs that were the shrimps eyes. They were filled with fear and regret as he stared back up into Dave's shades afraid that he would be punched or hit. Dave simply held Johns biceps before looking down at johns arms. They were covered in scars just like his hidden arms. He imeadiatly sighed and looked up at Vriska.

"I've changed my mind Vrisk. I don't want to be part of your group because I can tell that all you'll do is not pay attention to me. I want a real friend. One that I can have the back of while he has mine," Dave half smiled and looked down at the boy he was holding who was scared even more but was looking up at Dave with slight compassion "now excuse me but I am going to go and take John here with me so you guys wont beat the living hell out of him"

Vriska was speechless and Dave smirked down at her then walked past ushering John through the crowd of the whole class that had gathered around as though he were a celebrity in a whole group of frozen fans.

John looked at Dave with confusion in his thanking eyes "why did you do that for me, or at all? You're one of the cool kids" John's voice was a little squeaky but it was cute. Dave simply looked at John with a smile.

"I did it because I saw that you and I have a lot in common" John frowned confused by what the tall blond meant and Dave bit his lip breath now caught in his throat as he raised a sleeve only so the brunette could see all the cuts and scars on his arm.

"Why would you have a need to do that?" John frowned looking worriedly up at the Strider.

Dave half smiled calmingly "don't repeat this to anyone, even me, but," Dave leaned down to whisper in John's ear "I was my school's punching bag to."

John smiled and looked at his new friend "we do have more in common than I thought." The bell rang for class and they started to warm up John and Dave doing things together.
