I hear banging on the door. I groan as I lounge on the floor. "No, I don't want that, Eyeball." Another fist starts banging on the door. I open my eyes to see Eyeball opening her own eyes above me. "OPEN UP!"

I rub my eye. "Eyeball, go see who it is." She sighs as she slowly gets off of me. She walks over to the door as I yawn. "WE KNOW YOU'RE IN THERE!" The banging against the door outside gets louder. Eyeball carefully checks to see whose outside.

The intruders are clearly Rubies according to their voices. Instead of simply opening the door, Eyeball takes a peek through the crack in between the two doors. "Oh great. Get ready, Amethyst. It's Yellow's henchmen."
"Oh boy. Here we go."

Without any bit of effort, I pull my whip out of my fully exposed gem. I put that down for a moment as I reach over to grab my shirt. I grunt as I slip that back on. I then sit up as I slide my jacket and shoes on. I grab the whip and I get up. I head over to the door as my vision adjusts.

"I swear, those Rubies." I look over at Eyeball as I put a hand on her shoulder, smiling. "I'm not talking about you of course. You're my Ruby. The best Ruby." I kiss her on the cheek and I turn back to the door. "I SWEAR, IF YOU DON'T OPEN THIS UP IN FIVE SECONDS!"

I draw back my whip and I slide open the door. "YOU TWO!" Sure enough, two Rubies were waiting outside for us. One has a gem on her shoulder while the other has a gem on her forehead like Pearl and Peridot. I yawn as I lash out at them.

One poofs as she screams from the spikes popping out of the heavy balls of the whip. "Ah, nothing like the sounds of screaming Rubies in the morning." Eyeball poofs the other one with her chisel. "Wake us up at around noon next time."

Our weapons dissapear. I look down at the two Ruby gems lying flat on the grass. As if without a concious, I raise my foot and I send it down on both gems at once. They shatter as I look out into the sunlight. "Eyeball, I think I broke something."

Eyeball looks down at my feet and she widens her eyes. "Uh..." Her face sweats as she notices the shards around my feet. "It's nothing. Let's go take a walk." I yawn again. "Whateve." We head down the fields as we see more Rubies patrolling the area.

Another one spots us and she runs up to us. This one has a gem on its chest like I do. She growls as she storms up to us. "Where are your escorts?!" We look around. "I guess they didn't show up." I shrug. She takes a chisel out of her gem. "I saw them coming to your door."

"Amethyst?" Eyeball's voice shakes. She leans up to my ear. "I think you just shattered them." I shrug. "They're just Rubies." Eyeball gulps in response to that. "YOU SHATTERED THEM?!" The Ruby lunges at me and Eyeball blocks her off with her own chisel.

"WHY YOU LITTLE-!" She impales the Ruby and she poofs. I walk over to the Ruby gem and I raise my foot again. Eyeball gasps and she snatches the gem before I could shatter it. "Amethyst, no!" She bubbles the gem. "We're bubbling these." She taps the top, sending it away.

We keep walking until we gasp, halting ourselves from proceeding. Yellow is wandering in the fields, gripping her spear. She growls. "Where are those two?" We exchange anxious looks as she gazes out into the lake ahead of her.

Eyeball taps my shoulder. "Amethyst, look." She whispers, pointing to a cabin nearby. "We'll be safe in there. Come on." We carefully sneak away, trying very hard not to make a sound with Yellow nearby. Once we are a good distance away from her, we dart for the cabin.

We step onto the porch and Eyeball grabs the doorknob. She turns it and the door makes way for us to enter. We step inside and we look around. The cabin contains a kitchen, living room, a small dining room and a staircase which has to lead to a bathroom and a bedroom.

There's a small fireplace in the living room next to a couch with a couple blankets spread out on top of it. "Huh. This is a really nice house."
"That's because it isn't yours."
We turn around to see Ruby closing the door in front of us.
