Chapter Six: Old Friend New Enemy
As the two fusions recklessly played around, one of crystal shards in the four armed fusions pocket vibrated. Rubellite stopped in her tracks taking the purple shard out her pocket.
The perma fusion leaped back onto the pavement and answered it. Citrine popped up on the Purple virtual screen. "Hey! Just What Are Y'all Doing?!" Citrine yell which cause the two warriors split apart. Spinel got up and Dusted Herself off and walked toward T. "You know better then to fuse together unless its important." Citrine said with narrowed brows.
"We umm..."T said. "Save it. Hurry up and head back to home world. Missions and Training have been cancelled for a while. So you don't have to come back to training quarters just go straight to your Rooms or do whatever it is you do." Citrine said before the screen retreated to the shard.
Spinel and the gems rushed back to there base and began packing their things. As Spinel was finish packing her things she walked into the work area to put her things in a bubble to send them off to her room. Not paying attention to where she's going she feels a slightly hard push on her back which took her off guard.
Noticing she was about to fall on the purple she caught herself then she caught the purple warrior.
*time Skipp*
After they made it back to home world they go lectured about fusion. Spinel rolled her eyes in bordem. Citrine told them that all missions around home world were being cancelled which makes sense considering that the Qualification test were coming up in a few weeks. Spinel was kinda nervous about the qualification.
She hoped shed be able to fight on real missions instead of taking classes and doing mission tests all the time. She was determined to passed those test to get qualified to be a warrior. If she didn't, she'd be very upset because 500 years of training would be waisted and she would have to do it all over again.
Spinels mind began to drift, she wondered who she would have to go against for that test. Would she be strong enough or have enough thinking skills to go against a higher ranking gem? The red gems train of thought got interrupted as she heard her name being call. She blinked and looked up at Citrine with a bored expression. "Nice to see your with us again Spinel. Now like I was saying these qualifications aren't a joke your going to have to try your best! Everything you've been training and all the work you been doing over these last five hundred years will pay off. I'm proud of all of you. Now trying will be cut for a while but don't forget to practice every chance you get and enjoy your break. Now I have a meeting with the diamond authority and I'll see you guys in a few weeks." Citrine said walking away with her hands place behind her back.
Spinel stood stretching her form. Finally I get to go he and relax for a while. The warrior thought to herself. The gems began walking out of the HQ when all of a sudden she was taken off guard by T being knocked down on the floor in front of her then being helped up. She had this weird feeling inside her body until she realized who that gem was.
Spinel cringed her teeth showing her unusually sharp canines. She stopped in her tracks and watched the two communicate for a moment which led to Ruby bumping into her and Sapphire bumping into Ruby. "Uh Spinel Whats--" Is all Ruby said when she seen the familiar blue gem. "TigerEye.." Ruby said with her teeth cringing and her fist balled.
Spinel balled up her fist her form scowling hot. Her energy starting to make her hair flow upward. She slowly walked toward the two gems. "Spinel No! She's not worth it." Ruby said placing her hand on spinels shoulder. Spinel looked at Ruby and Sighed cooling her body down. She began walking only to get stopped by Tiger eye "Hello there old friend" tiger eye said smirking at Spinel. Friend did she just say friend? Spinel rolled her eyes and kept walking away leaving black sizzling boot prints behind her.
Friend my mass!
"Hey Ruby." Tiger eye said smiling. Ruby turned away from her crossing her arms. Ruby watch T frowned even more looking between her and Tigereye over and over again. "
Am...I missing something?" T said in confusion. "No your not" Ruby said. "I'll see you later T" Ruby said hugging T then pulling sapphire onto a near by warp. Tiger eye waved at Ruby with a cocky smile which made Ruby scoff and flick her off before the warp stream consumed the two gems.
Spinel walked in her room and sat down on her bed. Instantly her body lit up in flames. She calmed herself and laid down face first in her bed.
Why the hell is she here? Where did she even come from? I thought she got assigned to White diamonds Authority. She frowned noticing that she was flirting with the purple warrior. She instantly lifted her head up her eyes widen with anger her teeth cringed. Her flames now consumed her body. She stood up and started to swing at the air. She then ended up punching a whole into room wall. She grabbed the boxing bag and tore it down ripping it in half. She kicked her think chambers door in letting out loud and angry cries. Good thing her room was sound proof. Slowly she felt herself slipping ,She eyes turned a mixture if grey and firey red.
Soon burnt herself out. She instantly dropped to her knees and hit the floor. At least she wasn't fully burnt out though.
--------
Ruby pasted back and forth she knew things were going to heat up between T, Spinel, Tiger eye, and possibly herself. She decided to go and check on her friend. Before she left she got a message from T talking about going to the under ground. She quickly replied without reading the whole message and put her crystal shard back into her pocket running out her room to spinels.
She knocked no answer, she knocked again. No answer. Ruby started to panic. She was about to kick the door open until the gem on the door started to glow. Out came Spinel as she took a step out the door her form trembled she placed her foot down her body just gave out. She hit the floor face first. "Spinel!" Ruby said going to pick her up. Ruby felt the warriors body her body wasn't as hot as usual it was slowly growing cold. She burnt herself out ruby thought to herself.
"Damnit Spinel! How dare you let her over power your feelings already!" Ruby angrily whispered picking her up onto her back then running toward the local warp pad. She needed to get to a valcano or something hot quickly or she would loose her best friend.
Ruby stopped she jumped which caused Spinel to drop to the floor. Her back had smoke coming from it. "Damn that fuckin hurt."She touched Spinel again she was ice cold. Her form started to turn a dark purple color. Ruby needed help she couldn't pick her friend up because it would hurt her. She quickly took out her crystal shard and called Sapphire and T on a 3 way but for some reason only Sapphire answered it. "Babe I need help. Find a way to get here fast !" Ruby said. "But babe what--" Sapphire said. " Just come to the main warp no time to explain just get here please!!" Ruby said sapphire nodded and quickly ended the call. The red gem started to panic mor and more with each given second. Finally tge warp stream had the two gems she has been waiting for. Ruby looked at both gems with panic in her eyes. "Please help!" She said still pacing back and forth.
Both gems ran over toward Spinels form.
Ruby watched as the purple gem got on her knees placing Spinels head on her lap and feeling her face.
"S-Spinel?!" worried filled lavander eyes looked at red panicked ones
"What the hell happened Ruby?! Why is she like this?!!"
T touches Spinel's face then rubs her ice cold arms trying to warm her up
"Spinel, please open your eyes!
Ruby! What can I do!!?!"
The short purple gem begins as tears start to fall down her face.
"She did something to burn herself out. Something made her really upset. When I knocked on the door she opened it and passed out onto the floor and now she's like this. We need to get her to somewhere hot! Pronto or she will die!" Ruby said.
Ruby watched as T looked around then shape shifting into a regular sized amethyst gem then picking spinel up and running toward a volcano.
"What do I do when I get up there?!" T yelled at Ruby. "Just drop her in. Then we wait and hope she's not dead!" Ruby shouted from behind.
Finally near heat her form began to shake and tremble almost like she was have a seizure.
T ran even faster to the volcano, T tries to slow down but she slides over the end he sending both Spinel and her down towards the lava. T let's her form shift back to how it was before while she opens her arms letting Spinel go. Spinel fell into the lava making some splash back up. After a few minutes Spinels gem began to glow. Her eyes shot open, she was now at the bottom of the volcano. She planted her feet at the bottom ready to jump back up from the volcano.
She jumped back up onto the top of the volcano landing on her knees coughing. She got up and stood there for a moment with the rest of the lava dripping off her and onto the ground. Wiping the rest of the lava of and cooling down her body. "S-Spinel..." T said hurting over toward Spinel. "Yes?" Spinel said looking down at her.
"Are...are you okay?"
T said reaching towards Spinel's hands. The red warrior takes Ts hand and intwins their fingers. Spinel gives a nice warm smile. "I'm ok now. Thank you T and thank you Sapphire and Ruby. I'm greatful now um..if you would excuse me. I'll be going back to my room." Her voice change from happy to sad and hallow. Spinel started walking back down the volcano side.
"....I wonder....if your why my...gem was getting cold...." T blurted out. Spinel stopped walking and turned toward T with an eyebrow raised. "You what was doing what because of me?"
T's face instantly turns a darker shade of purple.
"O-Oh...haha Oh...um....nothing"
She quickly starts walking away fast only to trip stumbling forward, she turns to Spinel as she smiles, her face getting even darker.
"Just um...yeah....I'll just...see you all at the underground...in y-yeah.."
Sapphire stared at T then slowly looked at Spinel.
"...hmmm..interesting"
"Wait.. Underground?" Spinel said following T down the volcano side. T began to quicken her pace. She squeaked as she tripped on a rock when she realized Spinel was following her, after regaining her balance she looks up at Spinel.
"Y-Yeah....I thought...maybe we all could g-go...together..."
Spinel blushed which cause her to trip and tumble bumping into T sending them both rolling down the hill. Spinel hit the ground on her back. Rubbing the back of her head she opened her eyes and seen T on top if her. She blinked and blushed a bit more. "Um..T?"
T let out a gasp when the two of them went rolling down the hill, the purple gem blinked for a moment when they finally stopped rolling then she put her hands on the ground and pushed herself up a bit. Spinel realized T was straddling her waist with her legs on both sides of the her body, her face turned red as she looked up into the purple gems lavender eyes....their faces were so close, she sits up brushing her hair back from her face looking away from the Spinel
"I...I'm sorry..."
Spinel stood up "not your fault lady."
"Please...don't do that again.." T said. Spinel narrowed her eye brows. "Your acting like I did that on purpose."
"I ment keeping everything to yourself!" she snapped as she looked up at Spinel, her eyes filled with fresh tears.
"You have friends that care about you Spinel! You really scared all if us!!
Y-You were...so c-cold...when I was carrying you..." T sniffled as the tears started to roll down her cheeks.
Spinel looked at the ground then her eyes turned a bright red. Spinels Teeth Cringed again. "Why are you fucking yelling?! Ruby and Sapphire already Know I keep everything to myself. Its nothing new ! I'm not going to change for you. I am who I am. You don't need to know how I feel your just some punk you doesn't follow orders do honestly think I'm going to change just because some Amethyst gem ask?! No I'm not maybe you need to worry about yourself and stop worrying. about. me!" Spinel snapped back with her body heating up again. She stomped off.
"Some...amethyst gem.....Oh you stubborn hot headed diamond!!
Well this amethyst saved your life because she CARES ABOUT YOU!
Yes I don't follow certain orders, because it's wrong to shatter gems when we can bubble them!!"
T screams at Spinel's back.
"And also I never EVER asked you to change for me Spinel! Hell you don't even know or like me so what difference could I make in your life!
I'm just a lower class amethyst that is to small and not as strong as I'm suppose to be but you know what?!
AT LEAST I CARE, THAT'S WHY I'M YELLING!"
Spinel stopped and walked back toward her and got close to Ts face. "You know what. Maybe you need to think before you go on caring about gems that don't give two shits about you. You have no authority to yell at me you don't know me enough to know the damage I can do to gems like you. so you should think twice before you cross me like this again." Spinel angrily whispered taking Ts crystal shard out of hers and crushing it in her bare hand. She turned and walked away from the purple gem. She stepped on the warp and let it consume Her body.
