Chapter 1: Change


(Quick translation note:Hōseki no kuni saigo no nozomi means Lustrous last Hope)

Phos looked into the sky. It was gray and black contrasting against the white ground. The wind stopped as a shadow cast over her. She looked up. "Cairngorm? Why are you awake? Why are you..." The gem looked at Phos. Such cold eyes...white-sliver eyes. The gem drew out a hand.

Phos reached for it. "Wait Antarc-" Shhhh.

Phos woke up. Cairngorm lied on the chair half asleep. Rutile collapsed on the ground, in front of Padparadscha. A mirror was next to her. Phos grabbed it. Her eyes were mint green and so was her hair, just like her arms. She laughed. She was back.

She got up. Shakily, Phos grabbed the sword. She walked out and bumping into someone. It was Sensei. Oh no. "Arekisandoraito, get the slate. Sorry, i was in the past. Please Phos, go rest. You have had a hard few days."

Phos shook her head. "I've slept long enough. I need to get out in the sun and let Rutile and cairngorm rest. Besides... I can't stop thinking about the winter ge..." Sensei tensed. "What am I saying? I've always done winter watch...right, Sensei?" He nodded.

"At least how i remember it. Good luck Phos."

I wanted to get stronger. I wanted to be brave. I can't remember why now. I wished...to fight. To find my purpose. But to be this? A gem who loses parts and memories just to get stronger? What have I become? I lost Ghost Quartz...and someone else. Who was it? Who got taken? Who broke because of me?

I can't work here. All alone on my job- Who said you were alone Phosphilite? Did you forget the king of the Admrabralis? Me, Ventrocicus? Phos jolted. She looked around, searching for the owner of the voice. She looked down. A pink blob was on the ground, gnawing on Phos' leg. She screamed and kicked the blob. The pink thing went up into the air and landed on Morganite,(new and old) who were checking on Phos.

"EWWWWW!!!! GET THIS THING OFF ME!!"

AAHHHH!!! GET ME OFF THIS GEM!!! SHE'S HORRID!

Phos grabbed the slug and held it in the alloy. Morganite calmed down and asked, "hey isn't that the sea king?" Phos stopped. "Who?" Morganite gasped. Then, with no words she started dragging Phos toward the school. Phos was confused. Who was the sea king?
