Duel

I jump out the way as Eyeball lunges at me. She faceplants into the grass as I stare at her. "Eyeball, I can help you! I can help you get better!" Eyeball gets up as she pulls out a second chisel from her glowing gem, gritting her teeth.

She twirls both weapons in her hands like they're drumsticks. She grips them as she turns around to confront me.  "Is this really how you wish to settle things between us?" Eyeball glares at me as she puts of the tips up to my neck.

I facepalm as I attempt to pull out my whip. As soon as my gem glows, Eyeball sends me to the ground and we roll through puddles of mud and the booming of the thunder nearby. She draws her chisel back before she strikes it down towards my face.

I squint my eye and I grit my teeth as I punch her on the cheek. She slams into a puddle as I roll away from her. I get up, coughing out mud as I whip out my sword. I wait for her to get up and get ready as I fold my arms.

"Wow. Real romantic, Eyeball! Maybe perhaps you can stab me with that thing when we take intercourse!" Eyeball raises her eyebrow and she shakes her head through clenched teeth. She immediately pants as she charges towards me.

She throws a chisel at me as I duck. She throws the other as I jump. I point the tip of my sword at her and I lunge at her. She pulls out another chisel and she somersaults out of the way. I hit the ground and I lift my head up.

I hear someone breathing down my neck. I immediately turn around and my sword combats Eyeball's as I kick her in the face. She covers that side as she reels back. "I thought you cared! I don't get why you're saying all of this to me! Please, tell me that none of this is true!"

I shake my head as she pulls out a second chisel. She hurls it at me and I deflect it with my sword. A small dent appears on it as Eyeball pulls out another one. She removes her other hand to reveal a black eye.

"All I wanted to do was make you happy! If you really cared about our relationship back then, we wouldn't be dealing with this right now!" I slide my sword back into its scabbard before I pull out my whip.

"It's not too late, Eyeball. I'm sorry for what I've done. If you can apologize for your part as well, then I'll give you a second chance. I can help you be hardcore the right way. You don't have to be like this." Eyeball drops her chisel and it dissapates immediately.

She slumps down and she rests her face in her arms on her knees. I drop the whip and that dissipates as well. I walk over to her and I sit down beside her. "I did love you, alright? It's just that...after Doc came, you've changed. You've changed the wrong way."

She lifts her face up from her arms as she looks up at me. "We're terrible for each other and it's all my fault." I turn my position to face her. "No we're not. Our relationship can be so much more than that!" Eyeball looks down with a sigh.

"I think I screwed up enough for a second chance...at heartbreak." I take her hand. "I'm not going to break your heart again. Just keep it light and keep everything else as fair game. I'll let you know when I'm okay with taking an extra step forward, alright?"

Eyeball nods and I press my lips onto hers. She doesn't do anything other than suck on them. That's it. No tongue, no neck, nothing sensual. We close our eyes as I hold her close. Eyeball holds me close just the same as a tear transfers onto my cheek.

The next moment, the kiss ends. I open my eyes. Eyeball has been replaced with a familiar figure. I immediately take action for I grab the gemstone from the air before it nearly reaches his hand. I bubble it and I send it away.

The figure stares at me for a moment before he speaks under the umpteenth boom of thunder and the heavy downpour. "You just saved a Homeworld Gem, Amethyst. Cross the line one more time, and I will personally shatter you alone when you least expect it."

Rose turns away from me as Steven heads back to the cabin. Rose was going to shatter Eyeball. I start panting under the pressure I'm getting myself into. I clutch my stomache as I start heading back to the barn.
