Chapter 1
"What are we going to do for Christmas?"
This question brought Diamond back from her intense thinking. The P.I. team was in their living room just chatting. Diamond had clocked out long ago.
"Well, we'll have to drive to the closest town to buy a tree. Or we could cut down one of the trees in the forest outside of town." Emerald said thoughtfully.
"We could go out of town." Jewel suddenly piped up, "Where would we go?" Emerald asked, shaking her head.
"Hey, we could go to your hometown," Diamond spoke, everyone looking at her in surprise. They thought she wasn't listening anymore, "You never really talk about your personal life Emerald." Diamond continued. But Emerald quickly interrupted, "We... Don't talk about my personal life Ma'am."
"I thought you were over calling me 'Ma'am' Emerald." Diamond sighed, "But I thought we could go to England at least."
"What is your hometown, Emerald?" Gem asked curiously, "Its... London. I lived in London." Emerald said.
"Wow, that's cool! Do your parents live there?" Gem asked excitedly. But this question made Emerald go completely silent, "Is...There something wrong?" Gem inquired, but Diamond suddenly got up and grabbed Gem and Jewel by the shoulders and dragged them out of the room.
"Emerald... She..." Diamond seemed like she couldn't get the words out, "She gets upset when her parents are mentioned. I have no idea why, but it must have been serious."
Jewel and Gem exchanged glances but promised not to ask Emerald about her parents.
The group talked over things, and they decided to go to London for Christmas. Emerald didn't seem too happy about it but agreed none the less.
They were about to get dinner ready when a big explosion was heard outside.
Tripping over each other, Diamond managed to get outside followed by the others. Diamond spotted Dr. Angela with a bunch of supplies rush over to The Rogers house.
"Let's go see what that was." Diamond said before running over.
They found everyone in the backyard. Dr. Angela stood over Neko, who was laying on the floor with blood all over her.
Tony stood on the other side of the yard looking like he just won a million dollars. Old Man Rogers was just shaking his head. William was peering at Neko nervously and Shakespere looked like he was going to kill Tony and Neko.
"I told you not to play catch the grenade! I'm running out of reviving packs and I only want to use them if they're needed!" Dr. Angela said angerly as she treated the wound on Neko's arm, "Can't you make more?" Neko choked out, "Don't talk, the grenade burned your neck. And no, the instructions burned down with Little People." Angela said.
Normally when this happens, that being an explosion, people would gather around the Rogers' house. But the new people moving in seemed to have accepted it.
The P.I. team left the scene and went about their day.
And here ends the original TRoRC series.
Hopefully, I'll see you in the remastered version?
Goodbye.
