Today....
Right here....
Right now....
I'll love again....
We've already found someone~
............
It was all a lie. A lie I told myself, a lie the Diamonds told me, it was the biggest lie I've ever witnessed....
A lie I believed...a lie everyone didn't know existed...a lie that fooled everyone...a lie I fell for...
When the Diamonds took me in, I wanted to be loved and cherished, like they said they would, like Pink said she would...
I should've known they were the biggest phonies I've ever seen. They didnt love and cherish me for too  long.

When we first arrived at the palace, they gave me attention and all. They'd hug me, play games with me, and they'd do anything for me. I was loving it there...But all good things come with a price.

All the love I received was all a gimic. They made me dress into Pink's attire. I kept saying I didn't want to, for obvious reasons such as the fact she's the one who hurt me in the first place. Then the Diamonds told me I didn't have a choice, so I had to put it on anyway. I admit, I hated wearing it, just looking at it brought back memories of that bitch. Then again, I was supposed to make others happy, and putting on Pink's attire made the Diamonds happy.

It didn't stop there though...

They started giving me strict rules, like I can't leave the palace or I need to stay in their sight. I thought it was some sort of protection, but when they starting banning me from talking to other gems and not letting me play my favorite games as much as I used to, they took it too far.

That's not the worst of it...

There was this one day that made me change the way I felt about them forever...

I wanted to start exploring...it gets boring staying in the same place forever. So, just to get the outside feels back, I went outside the palace. It wasn't too far, just a few feet outside. I enjoyed seeing the outdoors, it brought back a little bit of happiness.

It didn't last long....

The Diamonds were pissed that I had went outside the palace doors....

I was about 3 feet away from the palace, which was as far as I dared to get. However, it was 3 feet too far.
The Diamonds called my name in rage, looking for me even though I was right in front of the palace. When Yellow finally found me, she forcefully brought me back in with rage. They brought me into the throne room and started yelling at me...

"Spinel what were you thinking?!? You KNOW you're forbidden from ever going out of our sight, let alone going outside the palace!!!" Yellow yelled in rage.

"Do you know you could've gotten hurt! Lost, cracked, or even shattered!" Blue told me in a panicky tone. Blue was my favorite of them all, and I hated seeing her so upset.

"I-i'm sorry..." I apologized with a voice crack, terrified for my life. I even felt tears start to form into my eyes, but I used my willpower to hold them in. My apology wasn't acceptable, because they were still mad, with Blue looking as heartbroken as ever.

White glared at me with a stern face, her stone cold Diamond eyes staring right into my soul. "What you did was UNACCEPTABLE! And it won't go unpunished! Pink, you should know better than to disobey us!"

....

Pink, you should know better than to disobey us!
...
Pink you should know better-
...
Pink...
...
Pink
...

I'm.

Not.

PINK!

After that sentence I did something I would forever regret.

I lost my temper...I lost my mind...I lost my happiness....

"Just shut up about her already!!! PLEASE JUST SHUT UP!! I'M NOT PINK!!! I NEVER WIlL BE! AND I'M GETTING SICK OF HEARING HER NAME! DON'T EVER CALL ME PINK! I'M NOT PINK DIAMOND! I AM SPINEL, I'LL FOREVER BE SPINEL! AND THERE ISN'T SHIT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE ME ANYTHING ELSE!!!!!" I yelled in pure anger.

And then everything went quiet.
Not a good quiet...
but the worst silence that could ever be...

I had just realized what I had told them- The Diamonds- The highest authority over gems....

The ones who can shatter gems...

I gasped as I struggled to breathe in my own guilt and fear. "I..." was all i could get out of my throat. I couldn't even finish my sentence or my plead.

Blue didn't look sad, but for the first time I saw anger. Yellow was clenching her fists. But White...

I was terrified...

"Spinel looks like you need a timeout..." She said in a monotone voice. My pupils shrunk in fear as I knew what she meant with 'timeout'...

The dungeon....

A place where I dreaded going...

A place where they'll lock me up...

Where I'll be trapped all over again...

Alone. Trapped. Lost.
There's no telling how long I'll be locked up in there...
days...
months...
years...
6000 years...
10000 years...
I dread thinking of how long I'll be trapped all alone...

"N-no please!"  I begged, tears falling down my cheeks. "I-i'm sorry! I'm really sorry! I promise I'll never leave the palace again, I'll do what you want! Just please don't lock me in there all alone!"

"Your actions have consequences Spinel. It's about time someone put you back in your place..."

No...

I'm not getting abandoned again...

I'm not about to be alone and trapped anymore...

"No...."

"What did you say?" White yelled at me. I stood still in my place, my face still wet from my tears.

"I...said... NO!"

Before they could say anything, I ran off. Away from them. Heading to my freedom.

I ran to the Warp Pad and escaped from my hell. I didn't want to be around anyone, especially around the Diamonds. Though I wanted to be held...in a warm embrace...in my senpapi's loving comforting hug.

When I arrived on Earth, more specifically at the temple, I immediately went into Steven's direction and jumped into his arms. I was still scared the Diamonds would come get me and lock me up for good. Just thinking about it brought tears back and I suddenly started crying into Steven's shoulder. I could feel his arms wrap around me in a comforting way.

"Tell me what happened..."

I explained everything...the rules, the bans, the locking up...

I was too busy crying my eyes out, fear taking over my body. I heard Senpapi Steven say something, in a sly and morse voice.

"It's alright... I'm going to take good care of you...my Spinel...."

....
Ya'll asked, ya'll got. So here's the prologue, and basically the story of how all this started. I actually feel bad for Spinel, but hey, i needed to start the story somehow. Keep calm and sleep on! And lemme know what ya think!
