Chapter 5
Gem was clinging to Jewel, and Jewel had given up trying to get her off. Diamond had hidden her face in her hands while Emerald rubbed her back.
They sat like this for awhile; before Gem eventually shouted: "The rain stopped! Let's get out of here!"
Jewel ran after Gem as she bolted through the kitchen to get to the front room. Diamond stood and followed them, Emerald trailing behind.
Diamond walked out of bloody mansion, just in time to see the back of the van door shut. She walked over and pulled open the passenger door as Emerald went around the front. (Anti-climatic much?)
The P.I. Van pulled into the garage, where the P.I.E. van was. The group got out and headed into HQ. Gem and Jewel ran to their rooms, while Diamond and Emerald sat on the couch. The P.I.E. team walked into the room and sat on one of the two couches. "So, how'd Bloody Mansion go?" Ghost asked.
"Horrible." Diamond said. "Nothing really happened Ma'am..." Emerald said, raising an eyebrow. "It was horrible for me." Diamond said, resting her chin on the palm of her hand.
Spooker grabbed the remote and turned on the Television ("No sir, not since Television") and it was on the Little People news.
"Hello. I am Niki Maxwell, from LP News. Breaking news, Little People is on fire." "WHAT?!" Diamond and Ghost said in unison "Gem! Jewel! Get down here!" Emerald shouted. Gem and Jewel got down there in no time. "And it has suddenly turn from Night to Day! Let's go to Brandon, Who is down at Little People right now!"
The camera switched to show a man, Presumably Brandon, standing in what looked like town square. Sure enough, the sky was black with no moon or stars. A building in shot was sure enough on fire. "Thanks Niki. Its really hot down here! Everyone should evacuate immediately." Brandon said.
"Well, NO SHIT!" Diamond shouted jumping to her feet. "Come on! Before we are burnt to crisps!" Jewel nodded and grabbed Gem by the arm and pulled her to the door. Toast followed them, along with everyone else.
As they stepped out, they took in their surroundings. Buildings on fire, which were getting closer to the HQ, people running for their lives, and the only light source fire and lightning from an incoming storm.
"The prophecy is true." Diamond whispered
