Karkat's been in the arena for an hour, maybe two. It's the crowning glory to an unbelievably shitty night, which began with him and his friends fighting the Black King and ended with a bunch of weird hornless aliens shoving him into a tube and sending him into a death match. The part in the middle where that demon-barkbeast-carapace-thing destroyed the door into their new universe just before Karkat slipped into unconsciousness hadn't helped either.

He's managed to pick up a few things via breaking into some of the little commerce hives that line the thoroughfare leading up to the big yellow horn-shaped cavity. Nothing that great, though. Certainly no weapons. The large spool of grey thread might come in handy once he can find a needle, but until then...

Well. When Karkat manages to score some more supplies, he'll figure more shit out. He's taken his cloak off, figuring that if nothing else he can use it as a makeshift garrotte for now, and waits in the dark spaces between buildings, hoping to get the jump on someone. Preferably someone with supplies.

One minute, she is walking around a corner. The next--

Suddenly, she couldn't breathe. She tried to gasp, but something was around her neck, choking her. She immediately began to struggle, grabbing at the cloak with her hands in an attempt to alleviate the sudden pressure on her airways.

No. NO!!

It took a long time. Or perhaps it felt like it. But eventually, the struggling lessened, and the girl's face began to turn the slightest hint of blue. After a moment, it changed to gray, and her eyes began to roll up to the back of her head.
